I'm using CS4 Professional with ActionScript 2.0.I'm working with a movie that contains 23 Tab keypress interactions, each of which uses this code (with each one navigating to a different frame number):
Actionscript Code:
var kl = new Object();kl.onKeyDown = function(){ if(Key.isDown(Key.TAB)){ gotoAndPlay(20); }};Key.addListener(kl);

I have a video player that pulls an XML file of FLVs to play. It loads the first one in the list as progressive. For some reason ever since I placed it on the html page, the page loads very slow in IE. It almost seems like it waits for the first FLV to load before showing the rest of the page. Is there a way I can let the html page load everything and then load the code for the swf video player?
OR
Most sites I see that have video don't load the video until you push play. I am assuming this is because it is streaming and not progressive. Is there a way to have progressive downloads NOT download until someone hits the play button? Maybe that would solve my whole problem.
[URL]. I'm trying to load multiple swf's on a key-press. Loading to one mc is not a problem, but when I try to define multiple containers from multiple sources it doesn't work. This is an XML example:
<menu><item name="item1" >
<sub name="item2" >
<subsub name="item3" action="item3.swf" texte="text.swf"/>
function on menu mc:
function executeAction(action, texte) {
trace(action);
trace(texte);
loadMovie( action, _root.content);
loadMovie( texte, _root.texte);
}
I am looking at the creation of a quiz using the Learning Interactions in Flash.I noticed that when I place say a Multiple Choice question on the stage that the area which says 'Question will appear here' is a dynamic text field.This renders the final text bitmapped. Is there any way of getting the text to look like smooth like the rest of my work?I have tried to anti alias it for Animation and Readability but it doesn't change.nd in all honesty set against the rest of my work the text looks crap.
View 1 RepliesI have a gallery flash that loads a pictures from xml. The pic slides on from the right. When btnNext is clicked it slides off to the left and the next pic slides on from the right. There is also a btnBack which slides on the previous pic. There are around 200 pictures.
I have now spent weeks on and off trying to figure out why it slows down and starts to chug! I figured out, with the help of individuals on this forum, how to remove the pictures when they are off stage. It definitely helped but its not yet resolved.
This flash is quite processor intensive with the amount of graphics. But the thing is, when the flash start off it goes fine but after so many pictures it starts to chug. Which seems to me that there is somehting it is not GCing or something of the sort!

Code:

But I get this problem in flash when I test or view the external .swf:
"A script in this movie is causing Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?" Then two buttons, "Yes" and "No".
When I click "Yes" the swf plays and my numbers in my array trace out non-repeating, the way I want, but the rest of my movie behaves funky.
After noticing a gradual increase in lag in a game I'm writing,I started a brand new project and wrote this simple counter to test if it would slow down eventually as well. Unfortunately,once the count reaches about 20,000 , there is a noticeable decrease in FPS. What's going on?
Code:
var count:int = 0;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, mainLoop);
function mainLoop(e:Event):void {[code]....
I have this frame where in the button links will change whenever the textbox changes. Here is an attached sample image so you could imagine what I am trying to say. For the
textboxes (instance anme: voca2_pg and voca3_pg)
it should be 10-20 then when next button is clicked, it will be
20-3030-4040-5050-6060-7070-8080-9090-100
For short, the next and back button will operate the textboxes.
but if I type for example 25 (on voa2_pg textbox), it will show 25-35 (basically getting 10 numbers in all)
ex. I typed 43it will look like: 43 - 53 or if I type 88it will look like: 88 - 98 And then the purple button below also will change every numbering..10 - 20 the AS is:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:command_voca(1,1)","_self");
}
20-30on (release) {

I am trying to parse a string. It involves a huge for loop.
Tried making livesdocs out of this but it failed. So I looked with google and found this.
Does any one know...how I could apply this to a huge for loop? Trying to parse multiple files without flash player freezing.
I'm completely new to Flash and actionscript, so please bare with me. But I'm in a bind, so I thought I'd give this a shot.I'm needing to play a commercial before playing an actual video on my company's website. Once the commercials ends, I'd like for the video to start automatically. Is there an open souce (free) flash player that will let me do this?I've watched a tutorial on how to do so, but when I try to make it work with a player, it never works.

View 2 RepliesAs I have done all my work for the week already I have been given the basically pointless takes of creating generic functions, classes and maybe components for a number of possible e-learning interactions for the projects we have, things such as sliders, drag and drops, multiple choice questions, scenario driven things and so on. How would I go about making things like this generic? The graphics will always be different and more then likely so will the kind of things needed from them, in many cases we don't know the capacity these things will be used in!
View 2 RepliesI have a bunch of drag and drop interactions in my flash file that gets graded, the problem is, they can move it away and back again to make the points keep adding up.

View 2 RepliesI am using a learning interactions quiz at the end of an animated movie. Because it is entertaining I would rather not launch as a standalone quiz. Everything works perfectly when the quiz is on its own timeline that starts at frame1, but whether I use loadMovie or use the quiz as a movieclip, or start the quiz on frame 1460 on the scene1 timeline the calculate score control doesn't work. It is called mc, frameNav and it comes with the Flash quiz templates. The AS associated with that mc is below.
[Code]...
with a "what should be fairly simple" problem I am having with the quiz template. I have a 5 frame quiz that I've developed from the template. All 5 interactions are Hot Object interaction types. The problem I am having is when I go from one frame to the next, the Hot Objects do not reset. Whatever the selection from the previous slide was, remains in a selected state.
I've tried renaming the Interactions in the Component Inspector, but that doesn't work. If I put some other interaction between two Hot Object Interactions, no problem. It's only when they are consecutive.

View 2 RepliesAny way to prevent a simple mc from slowing my main movie. As you will see, I uploaded 2 exact versions of the same movie but the first has an extra mc with a simple rotation of a shape in a 30 frame tween. and on the other that mc is not animated. The rotating mc is the light rays behind the purple spintop. And you will notice on the animated rays version, that the whole movie along with other mc's slow down. Some computers more than others. You'll notice the difference comparing the 2 movies if you wait for the flying gadget to appear.
Here is the link with the 2 examples: [URL]
(The rays_mc is a star shaped graphic symbol in flash vectors, not bitmap)
I've tried rotating the "rays_mc" via:
1. tween with 30 frames
2. Frame by frame with 10 frames
3. Using the _rotate parameter with onEnterFrame
4. I've thought that maybe the gradient fill was causing that slowdown, so I tried a solid fill but it was the same.
And all of them result in the same outcome. I don't understand why such a simple mc slows down the whole thing.
How does Flash deal with elements that are off-stage?Obviously Flash doesn't actually render them (because they don't appear anywhere on-screen), but is the process of rendering them still existent, slowing down my game as much as it would if the elements were on-screen?
Or does Flash intelligently ignore elements who don't fall into a renderable area?Should I manually manage removing objects off the DisplayList and adding them back on as the exit and enter the stage, or is this going to be irrelevant?
I'm still having some problems understanding these touch events...or maybe something else..can anyone enlighten me as to what i'm doing wrong in this code?? Only left as1&2 to go to 3 recently so I'm sure I have bad habits and misconceptions but. In the IDE i have a button on the stage called: "touchBtn" and a textfield called "timer"
the problem i have is that if i touch the button fast / lots, the display rate really slows down...I know this is down to something I'm doing totally wrong but not sure what..

Why an attached move clip doesn't keep button interactions from still engaging in the layers underneath i.e. navigation buttons, rollovers, etc.?
View 3 RepliesWhile creating an application, I ran into a unique question. I did some research and understand KeyboardEvent and MouseEvent separately, but how would I code them to be dependent on each other?
Let's say I have a button. When you click this button, a number in a dynamic textbox will increment. If you were to be holding Ctrl, however, the number would decrement.

Is there an existing javascript library for relaying key press events in the browser (or certain divs) into flash? I am hoping there might be a library kind of like this one for mousewheel events?Something like this handles javascript keyboard shortcuts great. I suppose I could just listen for those events and pass the ones I want into flash?These are great examples, however, if flash has focus, then javascript keystrokes are lost. How can you ensure that all key events go through javascript?
