Adding console.log() to AIR’s HTMLLoader
Here is a little code snipped I thought I’d post for future reference and may help someone else out. I was using the HTMLLoader class in Adobe AIR to load content and I came across an error where my Javascript was calling console.log(). In the AIR HTMLLoader environment this function does not exist so I […]
Combining PixelBender paint mixing with TUIO blob size
This post has been sitting around in draft for a while now so thought I’d better publish it. I finally got around to recording a video demo of an app I’ve been working on for a client. I needed to combine my PixelBender paint mixing with blob size so that the brush is the size […]
A simple way to get native alerts with Adobe AIR
In an AIR project I am currently working on I wanted to have native alert boxes in my app rather than building custom pop up boxes. There is no built in way to get native alerts in AIR and I remembered reading this interview over at leebrimelow.com a while back where a developer at Illume used StageWebView […]
Paint mixing with PixelBender
In my post yesterday I was demonstrating my attempt to create a drawing app using Stage3D for graphics acceleration. As it turns out Stage3D is not built for this kind of ‘per pixel’ manipulation on a drawing canvas. I mentioned at the end of the article that I might explore PixelBender as an alternative for […]
Painting with Stage3D using Starling
I’ve been trying to find ways to improve the performance of paint mixing with Flash and I though I could try using Stage3D for hardware accelerated graphics. But then I realised that Stage 3D is optimised for polygons and 3D models so it was probably not the best solution. I wanted to see if it […]
Spray Paint Stencils in Flash – V2
Well, here we are with version 2 of my Flash spray paint stencils. I’ve been meaning to do a post on this for a while now! This time the paint is rendered much quicker by doing away with an embedded for loop that was in V1. This time instead of looping through each pixel on […]
PixelPerfect digital art wall
Update: It has come to my attention that some companies have been claiming that Classy Event Group is just a software reseller for Virtual Graffiti Wall. This is entirely untrue. I have worked with Classy Event Group to design and develop this software for them. Classy Event Group is the sole owner of this software […]
Opening a file in a non-default application with Adobe AIR
On a current project I had to launch files in an application that was not Windows’ default app for opening. Specifically – I needed to open images in Photoshop or Fireworks from my AIR app, even when the default app for .png and .jpg is the Windows Photo Viewer. As you might already know the File […]
Experiences with Flash, AIR and iOS
Well I’ve been pretty busy latey and not much has happened on here for over month. I decided I should post some work and experiments I have been doing with building iOS apps with AIR for iOS. So below is a series of video demos of some experiments and actual projects I have been doing […]
