  • Worldwise Usergroup Meeting: ATL Location Info

    OFFICIAL ATLANTA MACROMEDIA USER GROUP SEPTEMBER MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT.

    All,

    We are thrilled to announce that by joining us at the September 3
    worldwide user group event, you will be the first users to see the new
    Macromedia MX 2004 products. You will see demonstrations of Dreamweaver
    MX 2004, Flash MX 2004, Fireworks MX 2004, Studio MX 2004 and the
    all-new Flash Professional MX 2004.
     
    We will also be raffling off a copy of Studio MX 2004 to those
    attending the event, so make sure to join us! The event will be
    broadcast over Macromedia’s Breeze Live so you’ll also experience
    Macromedia’s newest collaboration tool.

     In the words of Macromedia’s president of products, Norm Meyrowitz:
    “The MX 2004 products are evolutionary in their approach, as you will
    see when you dig deeper into each one. We built MX 2004 for you. Over
    the last 18 months, you told us what you liked about MX and how to make
    it better. Whereas the initial MX products blazed a new, uncharted
    trail, the MX 2004 versions make the path cleaner, wider, and easier to
    traverse. We are raising the bar even higher knowing that our customers
    will, once again, take the lead and go in amazing new directions. We
    can’t wait to see what you’re going to do with this!”

  • The Nex Obi Wan

    I think it’s a phat idea to have Mark Hamil play Obi Wan in Episode 3. Don’t know the status of the movie, but it’d just be sweet…

  • How to display an big array in the output window so you can read it

    Some arrays can have large amounts of data at each index, making it diffucult to read sometimes for debugging purposes, ecspecially in the output window. A nice way for the output window is:
    <pre><code>
    trace(my_array.join(newline));</code></pre>

    Or for HTML content in a text field (say a custom debugger you made in Flash):
    <pre><code>
    trace(my_array.join(“&lt;br /&gt;”));</code></pre>

    These will display each piece of data on a newline so you don’t have to scroll horizontally and visually mark the next index by spotting the comma’s mixed in (which are the default).
