ActionScript 1/2 :: Combining SWF Files To Interact With Each Other
Apr 13, 2009
I created several SWF files, now i want them to interact with each other So there is main SWF file lets call it: main.swf then within that file(main.swf) I would like to create buttons which will be calling other swf files for instance by pressing one button one.swf will be open by pressing other button two.swf will be open and so on. Then I would like to create buttons within one.swf and two.swf which will allowed to go back to main.swf.

I have tried on google with no luck so before I spend anymore time on this would like to know if it's possible.I have 50ish very small 1 - 2 second swf files each one is like one slide. I would like to combine them all together into one flash file.Is this possible, as a note I don't have the original source files I have just been provided with the swf files.

1) I started off with one FLA that was scripted so the mouse controlled panning (horizontal and vertical). That works fine by itself. (image_panning_as3.fla)
2) I also have another FLA that was scripted so when you click the buttons a popup window will come in and play any SWF content. (test.fla)
I have tried to combine these files multiples ways. Putting #2 into a movieclip and #1 outside the movieclip. Tried to rewrite everything together with no luck. I am trying to do is combine the AS3 into one FLA (except for the main.as) or basically get the AS3 in #1 to go into #2 and have everything work (Pan around screen with mouse and buttons still activate popup).

So, I need to make a slideshow that displays an arrow button on either side that can allow a user to navigate between four different swf files. The only specification is that the swf slide out as the new one appears. Could I do this in AS, or would I need some type of plugin?
I'm pretty sure I can make an empty movieclip and just load the SWF into it, but could I make the previous swf slide out as the new one appeared by doing that?

I have 8 flash movies, each with 3 scenes within each one.What is the most effective way (by which I mean, takes the least amount of time to implement and produces a file without each and every object used in the library) to combine these 24 scenes into a single flash file so that they play consecutively and can be exported as a single SWF?EDIT: I know there is a method whereby you select all frames in each scene and convert these frames to a movie clip, however the main document then inherits all the objects from each MC in its library- this seems a cluttered approach. Is there a better way?

I'm making a website which consists of an intro and the main page. For all intensive purposes, let's just call em intro.fla and main.fla.I would like to combine the two somehow
1) Turn the entire intro.fla into a movieclip and place it at the beginning of main.fla PROBLEM: main.fla is substantially larger, and will bump up the load time for the intro.
2) Run the intro, and have it load the main page with a UILoader.PROBLEM: The intro doesn't Unload, causing problems with the main page. How can I unload the intro.swf from it's self?
3) Somehow combine both .fla's before I convert to a .swf. I think that I could eventually figure out how to make it work properly, but I'd rather someone tell me what the preferred method is and why.

So here's what I want to do: I have a button, and I'm adding an Event Listener to that button to call a function. Now I want the event to be triggers when someone mouses out of the button AND someone is mousing out in the direction up.
-carbotech_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, callLink); <--- does the job for Mouse Out
-carbotech_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, callLink); <---- does the job for when the mouse is moving up
So I need to make it so that both of these end up true in order for function callLink to be called. Is that possible, and if so, what would the syntax be?

I have an app written in adobe flex (action script 3) that I want to have interact with a web service. Because it appears I can't access the server, I've created a simple app. Source code for the ActionScript
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="[URL]" layout="absolute" viewSourceURL="srcview/index.html">
<mx:HTTPService id="concat" url="concat.php" resultFormat="text" method="POST">
<mx:request xmlns="">
<stringOne>{stringOne.text}</stringOne>
<stringTwo>{stringTwo.text}</stringTwo>
[Code] .....
When I fill in the fields and press the button nothing happens.

I'm working on a web application which displays a 3D model (Acrobat 3D PDF file) and allows users to interact with the model. I need to be able to communicate with PDF from the web page:
1) Programmatically highlight a node in the 3D PDF (given the node name) when, say, the user clicks on a list item referencing that node name in the web page
2) The reverse way, know which node the user selected in the 3D PDF so I can highlight that node name in the web page.
My questions:
a) The UI of my page is Flex. Is it possible to do this interaction directly from Flex?
b) If not, is it possible to do this from browser javascript? (which I will in turn call from Flex) I have seen an article on browser-pdf communication [URL] but am not sure if 3D objects can be accessed from external browser javascript.
c) Or does the Acrobat Reader ActiveX control expose methods to perform these operations from browser javascript?
d) Lastly, do folks have any recommendations based on their experience, on which 3D CAD viewer software integrate with browsers and enable this kind of interaction? (Apart from Acrobat 3D, I am evaluating a few such as 3DVIA Composer Player).

I need (for a project I'm working on) to act on a MC that is outside of the MC containing the button and the script. but it seems I'm unable to do it.let's say I have two MC, let's call one MC_1 and one MC_2.now, I want to set alpha of MC_1 to 0 via a button included inside MC_2.it simply don't works as inside MC_2 there's nothing with instance name "MC_1". I can act on any MC inside MC_2, and on MC_2 itself (using "this"), but not on something "outside" it.there's a way to interact from inside a MC to the outside of it?

The following code loads the external SWF just fine and displays it in the correct position. The SWF plays automatically as it should and stops at the first stop statement, as it also should. However, my mouse doesn't recognize any buttons. All text that is TLF read only can be selected. The SWF playes perfectly on its own, but loaded into the main SWF, all user interactions are not working. Here's the code:

I have a client who has asked me to interact with the database using xml. The flash app needs to submit only simple data such as name & e-mail.
I would usually POST this using sendAndLoad, but the client seems to think using XML is less vulnerable?.

I am set to learn all I can about flash. Here's my first problem:
Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,go);
function go(e:Event):void {
bijtje_mc.x=mouseX;
bijtje_mc.rotation=Math.random()*20;
bijtje_mc.y=mouseY;
[Code] .....
I am not sure if the Mouse events are suited.. but the biggest problem is the MC's, I think. I want the mouse to interact with them.. just like a button you know. Made 3 different MC's, one for when its idle, one when MOUSE_OVER, and one when you click it.. they are on frame 1 , 5 and 10. The problem is.. the mouse cursor isn't interacting with anything.. the custom cursor "bijtje_mc" does work though.

I'm programming my game using Flash Builder 4, in an "ActionScript project". I'm not using Flex. I want to build my menus and cutscenes in Flash Professional, then export them as SWF and embed them into my final project.Embedding the SWFs works fine, I do something like this:
Code:
[Embed(source = 'test.swf')] private var SwfClass:Class;
var myMovieClip:MovieClip = new SwfClass();
parent.addChiled( myMovieClip )
My problem is that I can't access the buttons and other elements of the SWF that I need to communicate with and manipulate. For example, the main menu will have a "Play" button. I need to know if that button has been pressed. The level select screen will have a "Best Time" text field, that should show the player's best time on a level - this text needs to be set. But I can't figure out how to access these things.
I don't think that the children of the MovieClip are visible within my Actionscript project - it seems like the SWF is loaded in as one big "chunk" that can't be interacted with (it plays fine though).So what is the best way to interact/communicate with an embedded SWF? I've found a bit of information on the topic, but usually people are talking about using Flex or loading in external SWF (which seems to behave different from embedding). Is there even a way to do this?

If a swf file is destined to be loaded into a container file and interacted with from there, is it considered better practice for the code for the interaction to reside in the loaded file or the container file? I am writing on the timeline, rather than creating classes. Also if a movie clip on the stage contains buttons with event listeners attached and I remove the movie clip as a child, do the event listeners disappear with it, or should i remove them separately?

I have a Flex application with wmode=transparent and a transparent section that allows whatever is underneath it on the HTML page to show through. In this case, what's showing through is another Flash application. This works fine, but I can't interact with the Flash application showing through.
I tried setting the z-index of the Flash app to something greater than my Flex app, and that worked, but unfortunately that solution doesn't work for my case because the Flex application has components that occasionally overlay in that area, and setting the z-index of the Flash app to be higher means those components are always stuck behind it.

I'm currently working on a corporate intranet application. Part of the requirements are to have the application start a program on the users local PC (Minitab) and then have the webapp communicate with it via it's COM interface.
What are my options for doing something like this?
A signed Java applet and Jacob ActiveX and .NET (this will only work in IE, correct?) Flash? (can flash be given permission to the local PC?) Silverlight???
I'm leaning towards trying the java approach (all users will have Java and flash installed) but am wondering what's the path of least resistance.
The application runs from Apache2/Python/modwsgi on Gentoo Linux. All users will be running WinXP or Win7 with Firefox or IE6/7/8.

I have a list with a itemrenderer. When I put a button in the itemrenderer I can not interact with it. If I rollover the button the list item rollover is triggered but not the button's rollover. I can't click on the button either. You can see below I have a click event set in the itemrenderer and it is not called on click when I run app. Must I override rollover and click methods of itemrender? Why is it such a pain to put a button in an itemrenderer?[code]...

I am trying to create an automated program in Python that deals with Flash. Right now I am using Python Mechanize, which is great for filling forms, but when it comes to flash I don't know what to do. Does anyone know how I can interact with flash forms (set and get variables, click buttons, etc.) via Python mechanize or some other python library?

I have a movieclip on stage: I load inside it a form (via addChild). The form is made of textfields and movieclips and it is contained in a library object of MyForm class, extending MovieClip. So I have:
var myForm:MyForm = new MyForm();
myClip.addChild(myForm);
What happens: the MyForm class lets me interact with textfields (if I change a value of a textfield I can see it very clearly). But I can't manually reach the input textfields and the buttons (they don't respont to pressure, and I can't modify their content in the case of textfields). There seems to be something related to the fact that MyForm is contained inside myClip because if I load the form without the myClip container anything works again. I tried to use mouseChildren and mouseEnabled on myClip but it doesn't work.

I am looking for advice how to set web pages where user can interact with it using microphone. The aim would be that user can say word and the word would be recorder and the file compared on server with another sound (word) and then the result (the searched word) would be displayed. It would be a spoken dictionary.
