[worldKit-dev] WorldKit Misbehaves as a Child Movie Clip

[Mikel Maron]

When loading worldKit is another movieclip, you'll need to follow the small procedure documented at http://worldkit.org/doc/component.php

ps I'll be off the grid for the next couple weeks, so any follow ups won't be answered til then.

Re: WorldKit Misbehaves as a Child
Movie Clip



Summary: Currently WorldKit is no good as a child, height and
width measurements can not be detected correctly. Unless this can be
fixed, WorldKit will not work as a child movie, and in particular, will
not work within MapCast Studio. MapCast Studio has its own parent SWF
and WorldKit would be a child movie clip. However all SWFs created with
Adobe Flash will VARify and thus work.





The following post was create on behalf of JustinWills, a lead
developer of MapCast Studio. The original post you may find at: LiveMaps/WorldKit

I am using this to test your swf in a swf in swf environment,
your swf becomes a child and the tester is the parent.

>From your web site i retrieved this url to test...

http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml



That url fails as the server redirects to....

http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml



Then i have to worry about the parameter being relative url, so i try...

http://worldkit.org/res/worldkit.swf?confurl=http://worldkit.org/worldkit/samplemap/config.xml



And
then i see something, although not the map, the Width and Height is
also changing on mouse movement which means that i cannot safely resize
your swf once loaded, which is something i would need to do as it is
very small canvas by default.



Regards,

Justin Willis.
