View 2 RepliesI made the "snow" movie animation with AS 2.0.
It's working perfectly, but how could I ask it to change when there is microphone input at a certain level? And then I'd insert new different code (?) for the snow flakes to blow away in the wind.
how do you edit a movie so that when you right click the movie...it wont show all the things like "zoom in" or "zoom out"???
View 2 RepliesI'm actually relatively new to flash and actionscript but I could say I have fair knowledge about them. So anyway, I usually build flash websites the traditional way using timeline animation and scripting. Today I had a job interview and they said they're looking for someone who can develop any web design into a Flash CMS with a back-end office for the client to edit the content without having to edit the FLA file or any code.
Accordingly, I'd like to know where and how to start. What are the main concepts I should follow/adapt?
I'm trying to change an image, but I noticed that the image is in a symbol/movie clip type.. I also found out that the image itself (jpg/gif/png format) is not in the library. So what to do? How to change it? Also, when importing image files to the library, how do I import it automatically to a certain folder in the library?
View 3 RepliesI really need to use actionscript to edit my movie size. i have a movie with the dimensions X=30 Y=30.
now i can use _xscale and _ysacale to edit the but when i load the swf file in a HTML page with for example a width=500 and height=200. the movie is scaled as a square. because it's initial size is 30x30.
how can i use actionscript / javascript to edit the size of the movie?
new to flash, using windows vista 64 bit and cs4. I would like to take flv movie clips and edit them to use in flash. Is there a program in cs4 I can do that with? or should I use something else.
basically what I am looking to do is simply edit out a few seconds that I would like to use from a 3 minute video,
First off I downloaded the picture and bitmaps for my movie clip class online and it is now part of my library as type movie clip. Then from the library I was allowed to drag it into the stage then name an instance that I could use in my as3 code. This movie clip has some animation, so when the flash is running, the graphic would be "walking" the whole time for example. This class is called "Player"
Then I realized I wanted to encapsulate more of the code in as3, and to do that I wanted to add some methods and variables to this Player class.
I right-clicked the graphic in my stage and I found "edit class". It then brings up a completely empty class definition, strangely named "script1", not even properly named as the class itself.
When I edited it and named it properly and re-compiled, it looks like I basically just re-did a brand new class from scratch as my graphics were completely gone.
At the very least I would expect the Player class to have some linking or loading of my graphic, the starting x/y coordinates (according to how I drag it on the stage), etc.
Why does it bring up a blank class document when I right-click my player? Shouldn't it bring up the code that makes "player" work as I see in the flash? How am i supposed to "append" methods to the already existing class.
i just made a loadMovie function in AS3 that loads an SWF.What i want to do is to edit a specific value in that movie eg. player.health
View 2 RepliesI am in the middle of creating a website using Flash CS5. I opened up my .Fla file one day to continue my work but I am no unable to access buttons and movie clips. When creating movie clips or buttons I am unable to get inside them, when I hover my mouse over them there is a white hand icon which never used to be there it was always just a normal mouse icon. I double click to enter inside the buttons/movie clips but nothing happens. This happens to existing movie clips and buttons on the page and even when I create new ones. I really don't wanna have to start this website again.
View 1 RepliesI just got adobe flash cs3 and opened up a .fla header in which I like to change the text. I bought a template from someone with test in the flash and I'm trying to edit the words with no luck. I've tried double clicking on it and it brings up a square around the text but I'm not able to change it.
View 8 RepliesI am following a good tutorial here:URl...And it uses the following example file to display an embedded FLV movie:URL...I am having a problem editing the cue points. If I open the compenent inspector for the FLVPlayback, and then open the cuePoints dialog, I should be able to add, remove, or modify cue points. However, I can't edit anything in the dialog at all. It seems locked.The tutorial clearly states you should be able to edit the points.
View 1 Replies[URL]In the tutorial, it says I should be able to edit cue points for the FLV video. I open the component inspector and the cuePoints dialog. All the cue points are listed, but it won't let me edit them. They seem ti be locked. I need to be able to edit cuepoints within flash for a linked flv file.
View 1 RepliesI have a IT background and have been able to alter most of the template by myself to the design I would prefer my website to have. However I have hit a snag, it looks like part of the flash website design is controlled by bitmap images therefore I concluded those images were under the sources within the PSD folder. I tried creating a PNG file and double clicking the relevant bitmap and then updating it with the new file. However after I perform a publish preview the the change made no impact to the design.

How do you edit a .swf header? I can open it and it comes up but I do not see any options on how to change the existing words in it.

View 3 RepliesI've recently taken over the website for the company I work for (has been freelanced outside of the office). The previous webdesigner created a flash menu for the top of the pages, as well as a flash element on one other page. I have no Flash knowledge. On the other page with the flash element here: [URL], in the page content on the right there's the bulleted, numbered links. See how the numbers aren't centered on the button? I'm able to open the fla file & can find the elements & where I need to edit, but no matter what I do I can't get the numbers to center on the button.
I've opened each & selected both the number (which is a text element) & the button & have centered horizontally, made the same width & height, etc., etc. but they're still not centering. Now for the menu bar at the top of the page (can look at same page for reference), I can't figure out how to change the text on some of the buttons. For instance I want to change Home Serves to read Custom Homes. I find the symbols & they appear to be images, so is it safe to assume the previous designer created buttons with the text already on them? Also how do I removed some of the drop down items in the menu bar, specifically under Our Galleries?
I was going through the chapter 9 topic of animating 3d elements in Todd Perkins Flash CS4 professional essential training on lynda by opening the file and following along by clicking into the movie clip, but doing so caused me to go into symbol editing mode. When he does it on the video he goes straight into the movie where you can see the other elements on the stage. I right clicked on the movie clip and noticed that edit in place is greyed out. Why can't i get into the movieclip so i can edit the animation while seeing the other elements on the stage? I've researched everywhere and i'm confused how i can be going into symbol editing mode directly from the stage. It is late on a sunday night and i am now questioning my sanity.

View 5 RepliesI've imported a vector graphic from AI into my stage. When I click on the vector graphic that's been converted to movie clip symbol and drill down to the vector level, as soon as I insert a keyframe in the timeline, I no longer can use an eraser to edit the vector graphic. It automatically move up one level as soon as I insert a keyframe. Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting this behavior? I want to create a hand written effect with this vector grachic.If I draw a vector square on the stage, convert to movie cli, double double click the movie and then I am able to edit or change the vector shap but that's not the case with the imported AI file.
View 2 RepliesI'm using CS4, and I'm attempting to align animations in flash. To make it easy, lets say I have two animations which start in a standing position, facing east. One of these animations (in a movie clip) is on fame 2 and the other is frame 11. The only way I can find to do it - without flicking between frame 2 and 11 constantly - is onion skin. The problem is that when i turn it on, it shows every frame - I can change the start to frame two, but the end will not go back past whichever frame I have selected - 11 in this case, and so it it too messy by far to see what I'm doing. Is there a way to allow me to see only frame 2 in that ghost style, while I edit frame 11? Even if its not onion skin, it doesn't matter.
Second to this - I cannot seem to work out how to edit multiple frames. By that, I mean that frame 11 through to 19 need to be aligned by the same amount, and yet even when I select all those frames, only one is affected.
I found a script I want to use, but it's written in AS2 and I'm authoring in AS3. So I grabbed the *.fla file and tried to ctr+shift+F12 to edit publish settings and change the language to AS3. But it's not available in the drop-down.
