Comment on Color Name Class (SVG 1.0 – X11 and VGA) by Mark

Hey Adrian,
Sorry for the really late reply…
You do not need to instantiate the class, all of the properties and methods are static.
Each color in the class is an instance of the ColorName class. So, BLUE, for example, has a color and name property.
To use a color, you would just need to say ColorName.BLUE.color.
You don’t actually need to use the getColorNameByName() method. If you do use the method, there’s a reason that it doesn’t work for the colors with an underscore.
The name of LAVENDER_BLUSH is actually “lavenderBlush”. You can find that out by tracing out ColorName.LAVENDER_BLUSH.name.
But again, the easiest way to get the color would just be to say ColorName.LAVENDER_BLUSH.color.
Hope that helps!!

Comment on Geocoding with Papervision3D Update by marco

Hey Mark,

first of all, great work.
i’m trying to get a selected marker on click in front of the camera (acutally just on the y-axis). but for some reason, it works not 100%. sometimes it is just slighty beside the center, and sometimes it just spinns the wrong way arround

any idea?

thanks
marco

... protected function rotateGlobeToMarker(marker : DisplayObject3D) : void { Tweener.removeAllTweens(); var rotationY : int = marker.rotationY; Tweener.addTween(cameraTarget, {rotationX : 0, rotationY : rotationY, time : 2, onComplete : autoRotateComplete}); } ...

Hi Mark,

your 3d globe is the fastest globe on the market, and I study it all.
Please inform me where to search to do some modification:
1. to create a continuous spinning of the globe, to set a rotation speed.
2. to put the selected marker in the middle of the screen when the marker is selected.
3.to modify the marker with a png icon.

thank you!

Hi Mark,

I think I have figured out how to use this class and have managed to get it to work with colours that use a name without underscores. Like this …

import com.yourpalmark.utils.ColorName;
var canvas:Sprite;
canvas = new Sprite();
canvas.graphics.beginFill(ColorName.getColorNameByName(“LAVENDER”).color, 1);
canvas.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 550, 400);
canvas.graphics.endFill();
addChild(canvas);

But when I try to get a colour that has underscores in it’s name like this …

import com.yourpalmark.utils.ColorName;
var canvas:Sprite;
canvas = new Sprite();
canvas.graphics.beginFill(ColorName.getColorNameByName(“LAVENDER_BLUSH”).color, 1);
canvas.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 550, 400);
canvas.graphics.endFill();
addChild(canvas);

I get the following error message …

“TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at colorNameDemo_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()”

Any ideas why this is?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Cheers,

Adrian

Comment on FlashPaper Component Tutorial by Silver

Hi Mark,

Can this component be used in CS4? I tried but FlashPaper did not appear in Component window. Can anyone suggest how to make it work in CS4?
I’ve tried CS3, it works perfectly.

Comment on FlashPaper in 2008: Dead or Alive? by Bjoern Berntsson

FlexPaper was relased not too long ago, it’s a new open source flash based viewer equivalent to Flash Paper. Looks very promising:
