ActionScript 1/2 :: Creating Slide Shows In Flash?
Apr 27, 2010
I am trying to teach myself to create slide shows in Flash. I have Flash CS4 ProfessionalIt seems like a great tutorial. However, as I am following it, I can't make my slide show work as the tutorial demonstrates. Specificall, after creating the buttons as shown, my slide show will not stop at the next frame, but rapidly runs through all the slides. I have worked with the tutorial for several days and can not get it to work for me. I get the below error messages when I follow the turorial.This is what the tutorial says to do, and as best as I can tell, I am doing just that:This is what part of my screen looks like:

I am creating a website using the slide presentation template. However, when I navigate to a page I have already viewed, it only shows the last frame of the slide rather than starting from frame 1 of the slide. Is there I way I can tell button to go to a slide and play from frame 1 regarless of how many times the slide has been viewed?

I've created a multi frame MC for placing each of my slide out images on and have added a tween slide out MC.my onrelease is working and I've correctly switched the image frame for the relevant picture being clicked before playing the tween MC.However once the MC stops playing the image MC is reverting back to showing frame one image.Why is this happening? Also why when the slide out MC is over the smaller clicklable image the hit area is still available through the image being shown?I've ensured that the slide out MC is on the top most layer, how do I make its backgroud solid so any clickable item underneath is not available.

I need to create an interface for a competition which also is a fund raising event. There are a number of teams, and for each point a team scores, their 'points' will be equivalent to a certain amount of money.Problem:To figure out a way on how to make so, that when you click/add a point to a certain team, the following should happen:1) The team's amount increases2) The team's bar shows the same increase3) The total amount of all teams updates and shows at the top of the screenHere's a pic that illustrates the whole thing:Fund raiser interfaceIs there anyone out there who has a clue on how to get this thing working? The graphical aspects of it with tweening etc is no problem, it's the actual "adding value to Bar1 and have a MC show the increase, and summarize the total value of all bars" programming that I'm struggling majestically with.

I am using currentSlide.gotoNextSlide to change between slides, however I can't make it stop playback on load of each slide.I have a motion tween with I need to NOT play automatically when the slide loads... but no matter how many iterations of stop(), gotoAndStop(), etc I use, nothing will stop the clip from playing when it is loaded!

How can I create a simple sliding viewer that horizontally scrolls through thumbnail images without using XML? I read thru the Kirupa tutorial for loading the thumbnails, and it worked perfectly. However, when you click on a thumbnail, I need it to launch an HTML page in a separate window. (This is a bit more complicated than if it only needed to load an enlarged version of the thumbnail in a separate movie clip.)

I'm able to create all types of files except for a Flash Slide Presentation. As soon as I create a new presentation I get a R6025 Pure Virtual Function Call error, a message pops up saying Flash has unexpectedly quit and then the program hangs until i have to manually end the program in my task manager.
I've tried to find out a bit more but it sounds like people only get these errors pertaining to their browsers so not sure what this error has got to do with Flash CS4.

this is what I am trying to do:
1st slide: pre test (3 radio buttons)
2nd slide: video
3rd slide: post test (3 radio buttons) - this page has a submit button that calls a .php script
The Pre Questions are setup like this:[code].....
wondering if this is a Global Variable problem? Is there any reason that the "variables" variable would stop populating after the first slide? Obviously, they are getting to the last slide since the submit button is passing them (or is the external file doing it?), but don't know why the post ones are not going.

I am trying to build a vertical slide scroller based on a tutorial for a horizontal slide scroller and am having difficulties undertanding what values I need to change in the code for the slider mc in order to make it work. The horizontal slider is quite smart and there is additonal functionality attached to it to affect it's movement which I'm not too worried about although it would be nice)
Code:
// set up content_mc info
contentRight = _root.content_mc._x;

I have mashed a setting somewhere that put the stage in wireframe preview mode and I can't seem to find where the setting is to change it back. I THINK I have checked every setting.
how to change this back? It's a little difficult to work with images when all you see is an outline of the image's dimensions.

I am using jQuery's colorbox to open up an iframe on a page. On the page there are two flash SWFs. When I click the button that opens the colorbox, those flash SWFs appear over the top of my colorbox div. I've checked the CSS properties of the colorbox, and the overlay has position:absolute and z-index:999. I have given the SWFs a z-index:0 property, but they still show over the top of the colorbox. This happens in Firefox, IE, and Chrome.

When I run my very simple script
Code:
var myTextfield:TextField = new TextField ;
myTextfield.width = 300;
myTextfield.height = 100;
addChild(myTextfield);
[Code] .....
It does neatly output the desired text to the screen - BUT it also shows part of my code in the movie, in a way that's just not possible. Here's a screenshot, I know it looks like I manipulated it in PhotoShop or something, but I didn't. The text gets vague after a few lines; that's exactly how it looks on my screen. I've run it several times, and it always looks like this.

I've been using Flash for a couple of years now... I use it mostly for designing fashion graphics (!!!). I know that Illustrator is excellent for creating artwork, I export Flash files as AI ones, but encounter numerous errors while opening such files in Illustrator. I think the problem is with the Color settings. Flash uses RGB, and CMYK is Illustrator's default settings. When I try to export a graphic symbol (with layers, groups of objects and simple shapes) from Flash Professional as an AI file, it always exports as Illustrator 6.0 version (wonder why)...
Then I try to open this file in Illustrator CS2 and always get a "BG" error message which is similar to this one:
Can't open illustration. The illustration doesn't have the correct number of operands for an operator.
Offending operator: "Bg"
Contex:
Bb
0000 Bh
1.0.0.000819.20.....etc. (lots of figures)...Bg
So after getting such a message and pressing "OK" there are 2 possible results:
1. The program (Illustrator CS2) opens a blank artboard (stage) with absolutely NO objects or symbols on it.
2. The program opens an incomplete graphic on the artboard (stage) with many missing objects and shapes (say, if I exported a graphic with 2 layers, the top layer will be missing).
Unfortunately, these are the most common results....Though a few days ago I hkept several AI files open and tried to export an AI file made in Flash. To my greatest surprise Illustrator could open the file with absolutely everything I exported from Flash! Except for Bitmap fills, of course....But everything else was just perfect! I was amazed no end! What settings should I have in order to be able to open AI files exported from Flash? If I got it once, it means it is possible to open such files... I have to use Illustrator more often now, and I need my artwork to be covered to AI files without significant modifications or corrections... Is it doable?

I have a Flash website with 5 sections (Featured Work, News, About Me, Services, Contact). All the sections works fine, both in Flash and on the server, if the content isn't loaded from XML. But in the News section i use XML for loading the news.If i test my movie in flash, the whole site works fine, and the XML News works perfect. But if i test the movie in a virtual server (like MAMP) or if i test it on my own server, the news section doesn't show.

I am trying to add to my site a feature that allows users to select a set of images in Flash (AS3) click a button and have my server create a zip file of all the images for them to download.
I have already wrote my code in flash and crated my php script and tested it on my localhost and everything works great. But when I upload the same files to my sever no zip files are created. Below is the code for both my flash and for my php.
Localhost server is using 5.2.17 and so if my Server hosted on 1&1

I've followed the Adobe instrunctions on how to create an app without windows (link).
The gist is that you can do this by hiding or closing the original nativeWindow and creating a new one with theUTILITY or LIGHTWEIGHT property.
Unfortunately, when an application is launched more than once, the new nativeWindow is created again with each launch. This is highly undesirable.
I've tried setting variables with the launch of the application, but it seems like these are not accessible by the new instances of the application. The weird thing is: AIR apps are not supposed to have multiple intances (should be impossible)! And there actually is only one instance according to the windows task manager and the fact that there is only one systemtray icon.

My employer has a Flash Media Server that I wrote a little streaming video app for a couple years ago.Well, the videos have stopped working and I've been asked to troubleshoot. I fired up the fms_adminConsole.swf and connected to my server. Now, it's been a long time since I've messed with the server, but if I remember right, there was a big list of apps on the list on the left hand side of the "View Applications" view of the console. When I log in, there are no applications listed. If I hit the "New Instance" button under the empty list, I'm presented with a list of all the apps I think I should be seeing in the Applications list. If I select any of these, a new application instance appears in the applications list, and I'm prompted to give it a name, the default being "_definst_". If I hit enter to create this instance, it remains on the list and instance data appears on the right panel until the console refreshes, and then all that vanishes and I'm back to an empty applications list again.
Going to "Manage Servers", I do see a list of applications under the applications tab that I expect to see. The app that streams the video that's having problems is there on the list.
Is this typical behavior for the Flash Media Server Console? Shouldn't I have a list of apps in the "View Applications" section of the console? I've created about a dozen to date, and they're all listed under Manage Servers > Applications, but not under "View Applications". Can anyone point out if I'm doing something wrong here or missing something?Or can someone confirm that I SHOULD be seeing something under "View Applications" and that there is indeed something weird going on with the server.

I am having an issue with my recently created flash site. I have loaded and tested this site on many different computers. There is a preloader which shows percentage of site loaded and bytes loaded. As far as I am concerned everything works great. When the owner of the company I designed the site for goes to check out things he gets an infinite load percentage and the site never shows up, only the preloader screen with an "infinite" percentage. The only difference between his setup and mine is he uses AOL online.?

I've embedded a flash object in a form, and anchored it to the 4 borders. And when I resize the window, the flash application resizes too... but it tries to keep its proportions, showing unaesthetic black bars instead of change its width/length proportion.
