Free swf software for linux

WebCharts 3 allows you to deliver general purpose and specialized 2- and 3-dimensional charts as applets or interactive server-generated images (PNG, GIF, JPEG, SWF, SVG, PDF, TIFF, and WBMP) to Web browsers and mobile devices, or embed charts into stand-alone Swing/SWT applications.
WebCharts3D includes a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) designer that can be easily incorporated into your own applications to provide your end-users with chart editing capabilities. Full JSF support is included.
Enhancements:
- This version offers many enhancements including new chart attributes such as line and curve strokes and error bars, new maps, and improved gauges.
- It also provides a full-featured plugin for Eclipse that can be used instead of WebCharts3D Designer and offers XML, Java, and JSF/JSP/Swing/SWT code generation capabilities along with browser-based chart preview.
- The product now supports two additional formats - VML (Vector Markup Language) and CANVAS tag, which allow it to render the charts directly as vector graphics inside the browsers instead of using image generation.

SWF::Element is a set of classes of SWF tags and elements.

SYNOPSIS

use SWF::Element;
use SWF::BinStream;

$swf_stream=SWF::BinStream::Write;
....
$rect=SWF::Element::RECT->new;
$rect->configure(Xmin=>0, Ymin=>0, Xmax=>100, Ymax=>100);
$rect->pack($swf_stream);
....

SWF::Element module handles SWF tags and any other sub elements to create, configure, clone, pack to bit strings, and unpack from bit strings.

SWF::Element::*

SWF::Element class is a base class of SWF element, such as Tag, RECT, SHAPE, etc. Each SWF::Element object has one or more fields.

SWF::Builder::Character::EditText is a SWF dynamic editable text object.

SYNOPSIS

my $text = $mc->new_dynamic_text( $font )
->size(10)
->color(000000)
->text(This is a text.);

my $text_i = $text->place;

my $field = $mc->new_input_field;
$field->place;

^This module creates dynamic editable text objects, which can be changed at playing time.

Basic dynamic editable text object

$etext = $mc->new_edit_text( [$font, $text] )

returns a new basic dynamic editable text object. It has interfaces to raw DefineEditText tag. $font is an SWF::Builder::Font object.

$etext->font( $font )

applies the font to the text. $font is an SWF::Builder::Font object. Unlike static text, the font is applied to the whole text. If the text will be changed in the playing time, you should add glyph data of all characters which will be used to the font by $font->add_glyph or turn off the embed flag of the font.

$etext->size( $size )

sets a font size to $size in pixel. Unlike static text, the font size of the whole text is changed.

$etext->color( $color )

sets color of the text. The color can take a six or eight-figure hexadecimal string, an array reference of R, G, B, and optional alpha value, an array reference of named parameters such as [Red => 255], and SWF::Element::RGB/RGBA object. Unlike static text, the color is applied to the whole text.

$etext->text( $string )

writes the $string.

$etext->leading( $leading )

sets the vertical distance between the lines in pixel.

$etext->box_size( $width, $height )

sets the bounding box of the text and stops auto-sizing the box. When either $width or $height is undef, it is unchanged. Fixing bounding box may cause unexpected text clipping. You should set DefineEditText flag Multiline and/or WordWrap. See SWF::Element.

$etext->draw_border

draws the border.

$etext->align( left / right / center / justify )

sets the text alignment.

$etext->methos for SWF::Element::Tag::DefineEditText

You can control details of the texts to call methods for DefineEditText tag. See SWF::Element.

Preset dynamic text object

The following objects are inheritants of the basic dynamic editable text. These are preset some proper flags of DefineEditText tag.

$dtext = $mc->new_dynamic_text( [$font, $text] )

returns a new dynamic text. It is read-only, multiline text enabled, and auto-sized its bounding box.

$htmltext = $mc->new_html_text( [$html] )

returns a new HTML text. It is read-only, multiline text enabled, and auto-sized its bounding box. The text is treated as a subset of HTML. Supported tags are < a >, < b >, < br >, < font >, < i >, < img >, < li >, < p >, < span >, < u >, and two special tags, < tab > and < textformat >. See Macromedia Flash File Format Specification and ActionScript Reference Guide for further information.

$htmltext->use_font( $font, ... )

tells $htmltext what fonts are used in the HTML. In general, upright, italic, bold, and bold italic font are in the different TrueType font files. You should prepare 2-4 fonts if you use < b > and < i > tags, like this:

my $fp = $ENV{SYSTEMROOT}./fonts; # for Windows.
my $font = $m->new_font("$fp/arial.ttf");
$font->add_glyph(a, z);
my $fonti = $m->new_font("$fp/ariali.ttf");
$fonti->add_glyph(a, z);
my $ht = $m->new_html_text;
$ht->text(test < i >string< /i >< /font >);
$ht->use_font($font, $fonti);

$mc->new_text_area( $width, $height )

returns a new editable text area. It takes area width and height in pixel.

$mc->new_input_field( [$length] )

returns a new one-line input field. $length is a max length of input string.

$mc->new_password_field( [$length] )

returns a new one-line password field. $length is a max length of input string.

vnc2swf is a recording tool for VNC that records sessions and generates a Macromedia Flash movie file (SWF).

The project can be used as an X11 recorder or a Windows desktop recorder.

Wx::ActiveX provides the ActiveX interface.

It loads ActiveX controls for wxWindows.

SYNOPSIS

use Wx::ActiveX ;
my $activex = Wx::ActiveX->new( $this , "ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash" , 101 , wxDefaultPosition , wxDefaultSize ) ;

$activex->Invoke("LoadMovie",0,"file:///F:/swf/test.swf") ;

$activex->PropSet("Quality",Best) ;

my $frames_n = $activex->PropVal("TotalFrames") ;

$activex->Invoke("Play") ;

... or ...

$activex->Play ;

Swfdec is a library for rendering Flash animations and games. swfdec project was originally designed as a basis library for creating Flash plugins for GStreamer, but it is a fully standalone library which only use the libart library for drawing. Swfdec is released under the LGPL.

Included with swfdec is Gtk+-based application called swf_play and a Mozilla plug-in that uses swf_play to display SWF animations in a browser window.

Wx::ActiveX::Flash is an ActiveX interface for Shockwave Flash.

SYNOPSIS

use Wx::ActiveX::Flash ;
my $flash = Wx::ActiveX::Flash->new( $parent , -1 , wxDefaultPosition , wxDefaultSize );

$flash->LoadMovie(0,"file:///F:/swf/test.swf") ;
$flash->Play ;

EVT_ACTIVEX($this, $flash ,"FSCommand", sub{
my ( $this , $evt ) = @_ ;
my $cmd = $evt->{command} ;
my $args = $evt->{args} ;
...
}) ;

ActiveX control for Shockwave Flash. The control comes from Wx::ActiveX, and all methods/events from there exit here too.

** You will need to already have the Flash player installed.

new ( PARENT , ID , POS , SIZE )

This will create and return the Flash object.

MTASC is the first ActionScript 2 Open Source free compiler.
MTASC project can compile large number of .as class files in a very short time and generate directly the corresponding SWF bytecode without relying on Macromedia Flash or other tools.
You can download it now and please read the comparison between MTASC and Macromedia compiler that is sold with Flash. If its your first time using MTASC, please read how to install and use MTASC.
INSTALL
Theses install notes are for windows user unfamiliar with commandline tools usage.
First download the MTASC package corresponding to your system and install/unzip somewhere on your computer. Then add the path of the installed executable to your PATH environment variable (see http://www.chem.gla.ac.uk/~louis/software/faq/q1.html if you dont kwnow how to do).
For example if youve installed into c:program filesmtasc you might add c:progra~1mtasc to your PATH. Now the executable is accessible everywhere. You can then write a compile.bat file containing the following text :
mtasc.exe YourFiles.as... -swf YourProject.swf
pause
Put the compile.bat file with your source files and run it when you want to compile.
USAGE
MTASC is a commandline compiler, it can then be better integrated into [Your favorite editor] by configuring it to compile .as files with MTASC. The general usage of mtasc tool is : mtasc (your .as class files) -swf (you project swf). Please note that if you have two classes Point and Line with Line.as using Point for its code, you dont need to ask MTASC to compile Point.as when compiling Line.as since it will do it automatically for you. Then if you want to include the minimal set of classes needed by your program to run, you can simply compile using mtasc Main.as where Main.as is your "main" class, the entry point of your program (if you have any).
Now that you know how to call MTASC, lets have a look at how it works : MTASC takes the SWF file specified with the -swf flag, compile all .as specified files, and update the SWF file by replacing all classes that are present inside it by the newly compiled classes. To use MTASC instead of Macromedia Flash Compiler, its simple. Open your project and publish it normally (for example project.swf). Now run MTASC using the published SWF as input : mtasc (your as files) -swf project.swf. This will compile your classes and update the SWF that you can use for your website. Please note that MTASC add the compiled classes to the SWF in replacement of ALL classes compiled by Flash.
If you have an error such as class not found, file not found, or class name mistake, you should use the -cp flag in order to add a ClassPath to MTASC (that means a directory where it will look for .as files). For example if your classes are in the /code directory, do not call mtasc code/Hello.as because it will look for the class code.Hello (with package code), but call instead mtasc -cp code Hello.as.
Additional arguments are the following :
-swf file : specify input SWF which contains assets.
-cp path : add a directory path to the ClassPath : this is the list of directories that MTASC will use to look for .as files. You can use several times -cp to add several directories.
-main : will automaticaly call static function main once all classes are registered.
-header width:height:fps:bgcolor : does not load a SWF, instead create a new one containing only compiled code and using provided header informations. bgcolor is optional and should be 6 digits hexadecimal value.
-mx : use precompiled MX classes (see section on V2 components below).
Some other arguments, for advanced users :
-version n : specify SWF version : 6 to generate Player 6r89 compatible SWF or 8 to access Flash8 features.
-v : activate verbose mode, printing some additional informations about compiling process.
-out file : change output swf file.
-msvc : use Microsoft Visual Studio errors style formating install of Java style (for file names and lines number).
-strict : will use strict compilation mode which require that all variables are explicitely typed.
-exclude file : exclude code generation of classes listed in specified file (format is one full class path per line).
-trace function : specify a custom trace function. (see Trace Facilities), or no disable all the traces.
-keep : keep AS2 classes compiled by MCC into the SWF (this could cause some classes to be present two times if also compiled with MTASC).
-frame f : will export AS2 classes into target frame of swf.
-pack path : compile all the files contained in specified package - not recursively (eg to compile files in c:flashcodemyapp do mtasc -cp c:flashcode -pack my/app).
-group : will merge classes into one single clip (this will reduce SWF size but might cause some problems if youre using -keep or -mx).
Enhancements:
- Several small fixes.
- Strongly typed arrays have been added.
