The site im building has one blank MC container that I call the other swf's according to the appropriate link selected. If I click one link:
on(release){
this.Container.loadMovie("Mov1.swf");
}

Everytime I try to load a font, I get a blank screen that flashes on and off and have to shut my computer down for it to stop. I use to be able to download them all the time. I don't know what changed on my computer to make this happen.
View 1 RepliesI have created a portfolio page (all flash) and am using the following code to load external jpegs. I've also created this button to take one back to the main area. The problem is, when I click on the back button, even though it does take me back to the main page, the image stays there. How would I modify the code to make that image delete itself or hide when the button is pressed?
Code:
// set up loader, an instance of MovieClipLoader, and use the main timeline ("this")
// to listen to and respond to its broadcast events
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
loader.addListener(this);
// define what should happen when the jpg/swf is completely loaded
[Code] .....
Not loadMovie();
But how would you loadMovie(); for movieclips in the library? I don't want it on the stage, but rather a blank clip that loads whatever movieclip I tell it.
In my AS I load XML data into an array for titles which will be used later in dynamic text fields. I trace this, all of the titles load fine into the array. I use a for loop to attach a movie which has a dynamic text field inside of it. The movie attaches just fine, in a verticle menu just like I want it. The dynamic text field has the right instance name inside of it. I set the text field instance name to the array, but it didn't show anything in the text field. I knew it was there since it was Selectable and the selection cursor pops up whenever I hover over where it should be. So I create a string variable like so to try and go around whatever is messing it up:
[Code]...
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at QuizApp/createStatusBox()
at QuizApp()
That's the error message I get when it tries to play. What I have is an swf that loads another when its done, the new swf is blank but has a document class to an AS file. It seems the problem lies when a function is not properly being added to the stage.
The function is added like this..
Code:
package{
public class QuizApp extends Sprite{
public function QuizApp(){
createButtons();
private function createButtons() {
if (this.stage == null) {
trace("STAGE IS NULL!!!");
} var yPosition:Number;
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, addedToStage);
...
In what combination of as2 code would instruct a preloader to recieve bytes loaded and bytes total in addition to loading a external swf file into a blank movie clip? I've seen countless issues regarding the same problem but still haven't goten a clear answer. I dont want to use the video player component standard on Flash. I want a preloader to preload a external swf file and play it inside a movieclip.
View 5 RepliesIt seems like the loading screen (more like frame) is the last thing to load, so you are stuck staring at a blank screen for a while. How can i prioritize how the game loads so that the instant you get on the page the loading screen comes up immediately?
View 5 RepliesSo I made an animation a while ago and exported it no problem as an .avi. Recently I've needed to make changes, but whenever I try to export it, it is a blank video.
There is no sound, so I'm not sure whether or not that is working, but the video turns out as just a black movie with the proper length.
When I test it in flash or export it as a .swf, it is fine, only the .avi is the problem.
I'm trying to make a simple Flash application to be placed on a web site. It is intended to take data from an .xml file and display it in the Flash movie. There are a number of buttons that display different nodes of the .xml file when clicked. (Not all the buttons are functional yet in this code; I know that.)It runs just fine in Flash. It even runs fine when I publish it and then run it by clicking on the html file on my computer.When I upload the html and swf files to my server, the html file works fine (gives me a solid colored background) but the swf is just a white box, nothing in it and no functionality.Something needs to be declared, imported or linked, I think, but I do not know what or how to do it. (Most irritating is the fact that the code is substantially taken from an online tutorial, with nary a word about this issue.)

View 3 Replieswhere i developed an app that uses the webcam, adds an image and then takes a picture, well, i implemented textbook style the printjob, and well everytime after printing my swf goes blank. http:[url]...........But now i have been continuing testing, and i found out, that if i print from another application and then comeback, my video stream from the webcam is blank, this has no sense at all, since i am printing from another app. http:[url]....What is going on here i mean, this must be a flash player issue right.
View 1 RepliesI have a playlist of flv in my pc (not on web) and when i make then to play to make a blank screen between then, that is very ugly.
How can i make this like a flow playlist to each flv play next to each other with no screen between then?
I have had this problem for a week now. I keep making code but when I export to .swf it is 99% of the time blank. I do the addChild and stuff but still nothing. Here is my code:
--------------------------------------------------
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;
[code]....
The following are two screenshots of something I'd like to create:
Notice how each 'blank' is a drop-down menu. If a user selects the correct one the text in the drop-down becomes green and a box appears at the bottom that tells them they got it right. As soon as they go to select a new one the box disappears and re-appears with a message saying either they got the next one right or wrong. If they get it wrong it turns red. There is no backend data that needs to be processed; it's just the interaction I want to create.
how I might go about doing this in Flash/ActionScript?
I know how to create the interface itself I believe with the drop-down component but I have no idea how to program this.
I'm having an issue with my preloader - After it's finished loading, most of the time it goes on to the rest of the content fine. But occasionally, it goes straight to a blank page.

It doesn't seem to happen on every browser. Refreshing the website, it happens maybe 1 out of every 5 times it's refreshed. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. It's driving me insane.
I have a Textfield that I have drawn on the stage. I have another TextField that I have created in AS3. The TextField I created in AS3 appears on the stage without an issue. However, I am later setting the TEXT of both TextFields to the same variable, the TextField I drew on the stage, it shows no problem, the one I created in AS3, it comes up blank. The two calls to update the text are right under each other, so the variable cant be unsetting between them (at least I dont see how it would be).

I've just finished working on an extensive HD intro for my website, which is in 1280x720 resolution.
At the moment, my site has a splash page with 3 buttons on it:
B1) opens the site in fullscreen mode
B2) opens the site in normal window mode
B3) opens a new browser window linking to my intro
Here's the AS code I'm using for my intro button:
Actionscript Code:
intro_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("[URL]", "_blank");};
I'm wondering if there is a way to somehow specify in that code segment what dimensions I'd like the new window to have? I know this can be accomplished in JavaScript with something like this:
Actionscript Code:
<a href="javascript:void(0)"onclick="window.open('[URL]','height=1280, width=720,scrollbars=no')">intro</a>
I've already tried putting the intro on it's own separate HTML page, but because of resolution and other background contrast issues, I've found that it undoubtedly looks best in a window that is resized to its specific dimensions, rather than having extra space around the edges, top, and bottom.
I have a XML files that is being read in to Actionscript and as it runs the script and collects the results I want it to go to the next line for the next result. I am not sure how to do this. (See code). RIght now it create the items in the list like thisitem1, item2, item3, item4I want the result to be
item1
item2
item3

i have a slide to control the volume of a song it links to that autoplays when it starts its a blank .fla with the class Volume and an as3 file called Volume with all the codes by itself, it works perfect, but when i go to my index.fla where i try to use a UILoader to load the blank swf called volume it says:
" TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Volume() "
I looked at building this Weather widget from: [URL]..It works perfectly when i preview the file in flash but when i add the file to my web site it is blank... like it is not requesting or getting data... any reason why that would be?

I have tried the name, I've tried searching it as an Object, I looked for solutions on stackoverflow.. nothing has worked for me so far. Originally I had the properties node as such: fearing that Flash was interpretting incorrectly.

View 3 RepliesI'm writing an age verification actionscript for a flash project. Right now I have it where if the user is born before a certain year it will allow them to access the swf if not it will deny them. the problem is if they leave the field blank it will allow them access (i'm assuming because a blank field qualifies it as acceptable to the parseInt) so i'm curious as to how to block it so if someone doesn't enter a year it will disallow them from access the swf. here's my code for it

I have an FLA file with two frames. On the first frame I have nothing but a textfield and some code to do the preloading. After it is done preloading it does gotoAndStop(2)
On frame 1 I have:
stop();
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;
//Import the required assets
import flash.display.*;[code]....
In my publisher settings I have export to frame 2. My problem is that the preloader won't display until 100%.
P.S. For testing I put a large image file on the stage in frame 2 and the result is the same.
