  Is FCS required to run the whiteboard?
  can you use it with Red5?

• #2 by Stefan on 9/28/07 - 10:35 PM

  

  it runs on FMS or FCS. Any serverside code would need to be ported to Red5 as it does not support serverside Actionscript at this point in time. We will consider porting it ourselves but this is not particularly high on the priority list.

  is this possble to capture for movie?
  for example, when i draw a line for a while, can i record this ? and is it possible to play again?

• #4 by Stefan on 10/2/07 - 12:03 PM

  

  recording: in theory yes, in practice very difficult. But you could save the finished drawing, that would be easier (the component saves state already)

  you know i still have the original files for a version of this mistakenly post by Darren on his forum.
  there was no graditude for letting him know ...just the removal of my post
  Lord only knows how many people downloaded it.
  Is that right that this Fwex version would cost 500 beans ?
  does it come with the source files ?
  thanks Eric

  hi Eric,
  I'm not sure what you are referring to when you say that this was mistakenly posted. I was not aware of that.
  
  As for the price, it's up to you to decide if it's worth $499 to you. We think it's great value for money. And no, that's not the source code version but you can see most of the code (apart from the SWC) when you right click the online demo. That will give you an idea of how much work has gone into this.

  lol i never posted any sources accidentally lol + i have logs of all downloads from my site lol. A long time ago i put up modifications to the original FMS whiteboard that shipped but that was really messy so i removed them lol

• #8 by Eric Karz on 10/16/07 - 11:17 PM

  

  oh hello Darren
  yeah thats the one
  wbstyle.fla FCZWhiteboard.asc plus other files that were in the "SOExplorer" download.
  my message to you (back then) was asking If you knew that was included. then it was removed. lol
  anyways nice job on both apps keep the good work

  Can we have alternative to run Flex whiteboard component other than FMS or FCS on our own local machines.

  is it possible to put a movie instead of a picture in the white board area and pause it then make notes.... then resume play and continue....

• #11 by Stefan on 11/28/07 - 1:24 PM

  

  a movie could work but is not supported right now out of the box.

  hi there,
  
  i bought the component some days ago and i am getting used to it. the examples are great. there are some issues where i am stuck.
  
  - i rewrote a basic example as AIR Application. drawn shapes dissapear immediately after they have been drawn. is there an AIR example around?
  
  - what is the best way to custumize ShapeRef objects (e.g. open a window when a specific shape is clicked). my approach would be to create a stamp as swf which contains additional methods and properties. or is there a way to create custom classes which extend ShapeRef?
  
  thanks,
  
  chris

• #15 by Stefan Richter on 4/14/08 - 7:38 PM

  

  I'm not sure on your second question but I try and find out.
  If shapes disappear this normally means that you are not connected to the server properly. Are you sure you are connected?

• #16 by chris on 4/14/08 - 8:24 PM

  

  thanks for replying so quickly.
  
  i am running the fms 3 locally on windows. all the examples run fine. the rewritten example in AIR mainly consist of changing "<mx:Application>" to "<mx:WindowedApplication". The rest of the code, including the on connecting to the server is the same as in your example.
  
  the AIR application indeed doesn't seem to connect properly. this is also confirmed by the fms administrator console.
  
  i don't know wether the issue is me, AIR, fms or the whiteboard.
  
  thanx,
  
  chris

• #17 by chris on 4/16/08 - 4:07 PM

  

  hi again,
  
  my fms is running and i made several test with AIR using shared objects and they run well. so it is me or the whiteboard causing the problem. when listening for a NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, i get "NetConnection.Connect.Rejected". could the server side example code reject the connection of an AIR application? it would be really useful to get a simple AIR example with the package (server and client code) in order to save time.
  
  cheers, chris

  can we use this component with blazeds instead of flash media server

• #19 by Stefan Richter on 5/20/08 - 7:00 PM

  

  no, I'm afraid its FMS only

• #20 by Arun on 7/12/08 - 4:01 AM

  

  Is it possible to create compound shapes? For example a shape that contains text and this text is editable?

• #21 by Stefan Richter on 7/12/08 - 9:10 AM

  

  I'm not sure what you mean exactly but right now you can create shapes as well as text and you can if wanted put the text on top of the shapes. Maybe that's not what you are after.

• #22 by arun on 7/16/08 - 6:22 AM

  

  Clarification re. compound shapes question: the Flex Whiteboard demo includes a number of shapes, e.g. polygons, wedges, ellipses, etc. Is it possible to add text to these shapes so that the text appears inside the shape? (i.e. add text to a wedge or ellipse so that the text appears inside the wedge/ellipse shape)
  
  And if this is possible, is it also possible to allow the user to edit/modify the text inside a shape, e.g. by double-clicking the shape or executing some other mouse/keyboard action? Can this be done repeatedly?

• #23 by flash beginer on 7/16/08 - 8:25 PM

  

  I found this information useful for the beginner like me who wish to start white board using Red5.
  http://www.finsofttech.com/educator/technology.asp... did not give full code but tutorial is good.

• #24 by umair on 9/11/08 - 9:10 AM

  

  U didnt answered what arun asked , i will ask the same question.

• #25 by Stefan Richter on 9/11/08 - 10:12 AM

  

  no, that feature (text within shapes) is not present in our component

• #26 by Shifu on 2/28/09 - 3:00 AM

  

  Hi, this is very cool component. How can I buy it and how can I receive the component.
  Please tell me the payment detail.
  Please feedback to me as soon as possible.
  Thanks.

  Hi
  
  We are interested in purchasing the Flex Component Whiteboard, what the procedure?
  
  We want to use it in our tool for the online assignments.
  
  I await your return.
  
  
  Thanks.

  I followed up with Ananya off line.

  For collaborating online with the whiteboard and other tools I suggest you try http://www.showdocument.com - its an alternative tool for X that allows document sharing and web meeting in real-time. all the participants in the session see each others' drawing, highlights, etc. It is free and requires no installation.
