Your error with the images looks like the selection code (which does something quite similar to rendering) interfering with the render cache.

I’m currently working hard on a re-write of the nme code, but I will have a look at the swf/gzip code because that will be the same in the new version. The selection however will be a bit different, so I don’t want to spend too much time on it. If you can send me a little bit of source code, I’ll see if there is anything dumb I’m doing there. You can email me at “huge” at this site.

I have this simple example where I’m loading a png using the Loader class, add it to the stage with a enter frame listener which moves the displayobject around the stage.

I’ve noticed if I make a mouse event (any, i.e: touch the screen) all the moving objects on the stage get distorted.

I’m not sure but I think this is related with the GetObject method called in the DisplayObject class (neash.display.DisplayObject).

I’ve been trying to load assets from external files:

First, when I tried to load a PNG using:

bitmap = new Bitmap(nme.display.BitmapData.Load(“myimage.png”));

On the iPhone console I got an error:

pnglib – CgBI: unknown critical chunk

I fixed that adding a user defined setting in the project configuration, like this:

User-Defined:
IPHONE_OPTIMIZE_OPTIONS | -skip-PNGs

now I’d like to embed or load a SWF file, create an instance and add it to the stage, is it possible?

I tried:

var data = new flash.utils.IDataInput(neko.io.File.read(“sweetswf.swf”,true));
var swf = new neash.swf.SWF(data);

but I’m getting this error:

Error ZLib Error : -5

and the app crashes.

Has anyone successfully done this?

Thanks!!

if strcasecmp(inName.c_str(),”arial.ttf”))
outFile = FONT_BASE “Arial.ttf”;

Where FONT_BASE is “/System/Library/Fonts/Cache/” for the iphone (different for the simulator). Maybe this assumption is wrong?

Also, you should not try to create a text field (eg, in a static initializer) before the call nme.Lib.Init, since the fonts will not have been initialized.

If you have included the font in your project, you could try “./ARIAL.TTF” to force it to use the local font. If you do not set the font explicitly, you could try neash.text.TextField.mDefaultFont = “./ARIAL.TTF”.

As for flash.XML, you have to use the haxe “Xml” class if you want to be cross-platform.

Hope this helps,

Hugh

Could you answer my old post questions ?
