What Does System.capabilities.language Return On Your System?
I am working on a multi-lingual web site that automatically detects the user's OS or browser language by using System.capabilities.language .
Since I am running a german OS/browser, this returns 'de' in my case, but I wonder what it returns on other systems (english, french, spanish etc.)
To find this out, please copy and paste this code into a Flash doc and see what it says:
trace( System.capabilities.language );
Thx!
Mike
System.capabilities.language
Here's my problem. I use the System.capabilities.language to determine te users language. The outcome is assigned to a variable 'l1'. I need to use an if statement f.e. :
if (l1="en") {text1="Welcome"}
else
if (l1="fr") {text1="Bienvenue"}
I can't seem to get the above as right, can anyone help me out.
Thks,

System Capabilities
I want to use the system.capabilities object to get the screenresolutionX and screenresolutionY.
Then I want to use these to scale my movie accordingly. Now how is that to be done?
System.capabilities.os
Is there a way to make a MC happen only if the user is on a PC.
I think I can do this with the system.Capabilities.os command
but what will I have to input to cover all the Windows OS ??
System Capabilities
Hi everybody
why does'nt this code work:
trace(System.capabilities.screenResolution.x)
I can't understand it, because all others system capability things worked.
Thanks
Max
System.capabilities....please Help
Myabe I'm doing something wrong or I didn't understand fully the System.capabilities thing but I do have a problem here and don't understand why, so if you can help would be great!
I've made a movie that has to do something as soon as a sound is played. So I have used a "soundComplete" function and it works as hell as long as you have an audio card installed on your machine. The troubles is to find a solution for those user who don't have any audio card installed, and I thought that the "hasAudio" capability will come handy but it's not. Apparently I've got a "true" as answer even on a computer that hasn't got any audiocard on. How is it possible??
Thanx for your time
Giano
P.S
Ok got it! It seems that I made a mistake, so the "hasAudio" is useful just to know if the player installed has audio capaibility, right? So my question is, is it possible to know if an audio is played or not on a movie?
System.capabilities.os
Hi there!
Could somebody explain why, as I am running Tiger 10.4.11, System.capabilities.os returns "Mac OS 10.4.9"?
Many thanks in advance.

System.capabilities.screenResolution.x
System.capabilities.screenResolution.x and System.capabilities.screenResolution.y
Can these actionscripts actually alter the size of somebodies PC resolution size, or does it only refer to the Flash movie itself?
Also, what is an example piece of actionscript using these scripts?
System.capabilities.screenResolution
Has anyone been able to use:
System.capabilities.screenResolution.x (and .y) ?
I think the Flash MX developer fell asleep at his desk and forgot to write it!
It doesn't even highlight the word (screenResolution) when I type it in to the Actions window,it doesn't even highlight it. I tried looking for Tech notes on Macromedia's site - no mention.
H E L P ! ! ! !
What I actually want to do is create a movie that fills the screen, but maintains a constant resolution. I' m using javascript to create a window that fills the screen with no scrollbars. The flash Movie is very big, and I want to work out the top-left rectangle that is visible. Maybe someone knows another way to do this? It's for my online operating system:
http://www.i2genius.com/coreos/core.html
Trace System Capabilities
trace(System.capabilities.screenResolutionX);
trace(System.capabilities.screenResolutionY);
Someone was kind enough to give me the above code so that I could determine a users screen resolution. What I need to do is open various websites depending on what the returned values are. If the resolution turned out to be 1024 x 768, how would I make it open page www.go.com/1 for example? What would I include to add a second option?
Thanks so much... total n00b here.
System.capabilities.screenResolution.x
I just can't get this value System.capabilities.screenResolution.x or .y display right. I get undefined all the time. All the other System.capabilities work just fine. Can anyome tell me why and what can I do?
Thanks!
Help Bug In System.capabilities.screenDPI?
I'm writing a piece of ActionScript that changes the font size of a text field based on a computer's settings. To keep track of the system settings, I put in the following debugging code:
Code:
for (var prop in System.capabilities) {
trace(prop + " = " + System.capabilities[prop]);
}
For a time, all was well in the kingdom. Whenever I modified my computer's screen resolution, things would show up when I tested the movie. By default, I have my monitor set at 1920x1200, and a screen DPI (i.e. PPI) of 120. And these values were showing up properly whenever I tested the code/movie in Flash. But a darkness in The Force was rising on the horizon... I next tried modifying my screen DPI from 120 to 96. When I next tried to test the movie, the System.capabilities.screenDPI property suddenly showed up as being 72!!! I thought it might have been because I hadn't rebooted my reboot-philic Windows XP machine, so I shut down Flash MX and rebooted. When my computer came up again, sure enough, the text under my desktop icons was microscopic; but when I tried testing the movie in Flash, it was still showing up as 72. I tried changing it back to 120 and rebooting again, hoping that my computer and/or Flash just "hiccuped." However, the disturbance to The Force was too great. No matter how many times I tried changing my screen DPI, rebooting, and testing the movie, screenDPI was now "stuck" at 72. I also tried modifying the screen resolution again, but sure enough, screenResolutionX and screenResolutionY were still behaving properly. I also checked to see if it might have something to do with version of Flash Player that I have on my computer, but I have version 7.0 r19 installed (which is the latest version, I believe). Has anyone else ever encountered this problem? Does anyone know of a solution?

Parsing System.capabilities.version
I want to display just the version number like
"7"
when using System.capabilities.version. But it gives me
"WIN 7.0.19.0"
I tried parsing it like
Number(System.capabilities.version)
But we all know what happens there (Nan). So is there a way to get the "7" out of that string without too much trouble?
Thanks!
System.(..).language
Hi,
Is there any way to read the country from which the user is viewing the swf? I've read in LiveDocs that, System.(..).language outputs only the language of the OS in Flash Player 7++, not the users country code.
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash...=00002061.html
I need this in order to further automate my site, rather than nag the user with tick boxes etc.
Thx.
System Language Detection
I'm trying to create a feature
that does the following action:
1. Detects the user's system language
2. if it's english it goes to frame No. 2 (for example)
if it's french it goes to frame No. 3 etc.
I'll need it to work also with hebrew, arabic and more...
I'm not trying to create a Multilingual site.
I just want different users (throuout the world)
to see different graphics and content.
Does flash can detect the system language
and do something with it ? ....
Any help will be gratefull
Providing A User-defined System Language
I have ask a day before how to define system language, and I didn't found any solution. So googling is good thing .
I think the easy way for beginers and for noncoders to make a multilanguage is to use string panel. It makes xml's and you can add custom language . String panel is designed to set language from system language, but I found a "hack" that allows you to set manually language. link
Here is a tut in livedocs how to use String Panel.
I had problem, I solve it and I think that is good to share it
gotoAndFlak();
Button Works, Doesnt Work, Works, Doesnt Work With Each Click
I have this code on a button
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("smokeleft");
}
that obviously takes the viewer to a frame labled "smokeleft". At that frame there is a stop action and a MC with an instance name of "smokeleftmc"
I've followed this procedure with two more buttons and MC's, smoke and smokeright.
If a button is clicked once, it works perfect. However, if the button is clicked a second time, BEFORE one of the other two buttons is clicked, the play head will not trigger the MC again, rather it will move forward one frame (I assume it would move forward more if there wasn't a stop action).
If the button is clicked once, then a second button is clicked, then the first button is clicked a second time, it works exactly as designed. The only time there is a problem is if one button is clicked twice in a row.
How do I solve this? Thanks

onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
if (Selection.getFocus() == "_level0.input1") {
_root.input1 = "";
} else if (Selection.getFocus() == "_level0.input2") {
_root.input2 = "";
} else if (Selection.getFocus() == "_level0.input3") {
_root.input3 = "";
} else if (Selection.getFocus() == "_level0.input4") {

im trying to make a simple fade, for an image contained in placeholder_mc, here is the code im using, but i cant see why it is not working:
while (picalpha <100) {
setProperty(placeholder_mc, _alpha, picalpha + 5);
continue;
}
i initially use a getproperty line and set that as the picalpha,
shouldnt that just increment the alpha value by 5 until it reaches 100??
If u have any idea, please let me know, or another way i can make a simple alpha fade, thanks

trace("Loading is done for the movie clip "+ movieClip);
};
my_mcl.onLoadError = function(movieClip) {
trace("Error: " + movieClip+ " did not load.");
trace("Your load failed for the movie clip "+ movieClip);
};
// Set up button actions
next_btn.onRelease = function(){
nextFrame();
}
prev_btn.onRelease = function(){
prevFrame();
}
my_mcl.loadClip("photos/me-illustrated.jpg","jpgHolder");

it works.

Hi everyone
can any one figure out what am I doing wrong, I have been working on this simple thing for 2 days now and I am getting nuts: what I am trying to do is to make paperblock appear when I press button1. when I press button 2 make paperblock2 appear and paperblock1 disappear
the stage : 2 buttons, 2 paper blocks (paperblock1 and paperblock2movie clips as ), movie clip called actions (off the stage for initialization purposes only).
I start by intializing (I created a special movie clip, named actions, that contains the code):
onClipEvent (load) {
_root.paperblock1._visible=false;
_root.paperblock2._visible=false;
var changer;
}
(Changes the paperblocks to invisible + define a variable named changer)
then I put inside button 1
on (release) {
_root.actions.changer = 1;
}
and inside button2
on (release) {
_root.actions.changer = 2;
}
then I put in paperblock1
onClipEvent (load) {
if (_root.actions.changer=1) {
_root.paperblock1._visible = true;
} else {
_root.paperblock1._visible = false;
}
}
and in paperblock2
onClipEvent (load) {
if (_root.actions.changer=2) {
_root.paperblock2._visible=true;
} else {
_root.paperblock2._visible=false;
}
}
Thanks
