How to play flash animation ?

Hi,

I think you have to do your animation in Flash and Action Script 3.

Create an animation in flash and create AS3 code to play your animation when mouse is clicked :

MouseEvent.CLICK

Then, insert your flash plugin in xml file in krpano.

Hi,

First, do your animation work when you preview it in Flash ? When mouse is clicked, your animation play ?

If it works, then you should try to integrate it as a plugin in xml file.

And did you add this code in your flash project ?

import krpano_as3_interface;
var krpano:krpano_as3_interface = krpano_as3_interface.getInstance();

i just want you to know that if i put the animation as plugin then it works correctly (with the events of the mouse)

Great !

but i want to use it as hostspot

then you could add an action in your xml file to your plugin with "onclick" for example :

<plugin name="animation"
 	        url="your-flash-plugin.swf"
	        onover=""
	        onhover=""
	        onout=""
	        ondown=""
	        onup=""
	        onclick="lookto(180,0,150);"
	        />

Or you could add an action in your flash plugin in AS3 :

krpano.call("lookto(0,25,20));");

Good luck !

Hi,

when using a swf as "distorted" hotspot, the own events of the swf will not work anymore,
because the swf will be rendered to a bitmap, and then only this bitmap will be displayed distorted,
that means there is no connection anymore between the displayed object and the real swf,

a solution could be to use the normal krpano events,
you can also call your own AS3 functions from there,

or to add your own events direct to the 'real' Sprite object of the hotspot,

have also a look here:
https://krpano.com/docu/plugins/

first you need to know the 'name' of the hotspot or plugin,
this can be get in AS3 via the krpano PLUGINEVENT_REGISTER,

e.g.

krpano.addPluginEventListener(this, krpano_as3_interface.PLUGINEVENT_REGISTER, registerEvent);


...


public function registerEvent(evt:DataEvent):void
{
  var plugin_path:String = evt.data;
  var plugin_obj:Object = krpano.get(plugin_path);


  ...
}

then you could add your own functions to the plugin/hotspot
and call them from xml,
e.g:

public function registerEvent(evt:DataEvent):void
 {
   var plugin_path:String = evt.data;
   var plugin_obj:Object = krpano.get(plugin_path);
 
   plugin_obj.registerattribute("test",  testfunction);
 }


public function testfunction():void
{
  krpano.trace(0, "hello from AS3");
}

and call it from xml:

<hotspot ... onclick="test();" .. />

or if you want to add own events - there is "sprite" member variable that contains the real
visible sprite object,
e.g.

public function registerEvent(evt:DataEvent):void
{
  var plugin_path:String = evt.data;
  var plugin_obj:Object = krpano.get(plugin_path);
  
  var sprite:Sprite = plugin_obj.sprite as Sprite;


  sprite.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,  handleclick);
  ... 
}

best regards,
