Novemberfug

This Monday, November 19th, at 7:00pm, we'll be gathering at the Billiard Club on Whyte (map and address on the left) for yet another month of User Group-goodness.

To accompany our usual five-dollar appetizers, happy-hour drink prices and swag extravaganza, two of our local community experts have stepped up to share some of their recent work.

Using a Custom CellRenderer with an AS3 List Component

The new List user interface component in Flash CS3 is “the grenade.” That is to say, it is not quite “the bomb” but is an everyday workhorse version of “the bomb”.

Sometimes though, you just need change it up a little. Like perhaps grenades with yellow flowers painted on them? In this session Randy will demonstrate how he used a custom cellRenderer (and FileReference) to build a List based upload tool (AS3) and talk about the 'gotchya' he encountered.

From the perspective of a designer new to AS3, Chris will take a look at creating persistent sound using various MP3 player controls in a changing html framework.
