Just made a website with a movie trailer in it, FLV. Used a standard video component but the person I'm doing the site for wants their to be a button to allow other people to share and links to embed the video.
Is there a component that has this built in (for Flash 8) or is there another easy way to provide this info? Or what would be the code to embed just an FLV?

View 1 RepliesA video ends and a link pops up to share this video which opens the viewers default e-mail application and populates it to share the link to the video. how to do this? BTW I am a amateur flash user. I simply use it to create high quality web ready videos.
View 1 RepliesI have the details in my flash and swf file, but I'll explain what's happening. If you click on the green "i", it opens a window, you can drag the window by the top bar next to the exit and minimize. But unfortunately, if you close this window and open other (duplicate of MC), you can not move the window like you can on the original. My guess is that the AS does not carry onto the duplicate; I am stuck right here, if I can get this fixed, it will fix a lot of my other animations. I've been trying to search for this on Kirupa, but there are no results
Code:
on (press) {
bn = "window" add n;

I'm wondering if you can either specify a specific path of where to save your S.O.'s? I'm trying to share a S.O. between two swf's. I know they get saved here:
Code:
C:Documents and SettingsusernameApplication DataMacromediaFlash Player#SharedObjects
and right now they reside under two seperate folders (named after the two swf's) under the localhost. The script for retrieving and saving, as well as the S.O. name are all the same for both files although the swf file names are the same.
Let's say I have 2 buttons at the beginning and 2 different endings, but same sequence in the middle, how can I click on button 1 > same middle > ending 1 ; as well as button 1 > same middle > ending 2. Surely I know I can do it by duplicating frames, however it seems not right if I have more buttons and more endings.

View 1 RepliesI am developing a Flex / Flash application which talks to an ASP.Net / C# backend. Is there any way I can share code between the two?The server provides a reasonably interesting domain model which the client is designed to maniuplate. Ideally I would like to be able to define this domain model once and have both sides use it for consistency. I am after all the benefits that come with being DRY.I'm new to Flex but the sort of thing I had in mind was some intermediate language that compile to both C# and ActionScript.
Update:I currently have a basic REST style web service which sends XML serialized versions of the objects down the wire to Flex. This works fine but what I am really interested in is being able to share simple business logic that goes along with these objects. There are certain business rules that need to be processed on both the server and the client and is possible I would prefer not to have to call back to the server for performance reasons.
I've followed the documentation (I think) but it doesn't seem to work. I have a root document which loads a bunch of swfs created off a 'template' that uses two fonts. Rather than embed the fonts on each swf I though I'd embed them in the calling document and share them. The documentation explains to export them for sharing and give give them an identifier string and a URL. AS3 however doesn't permit the identifier string so I assume this is supposed to work with the class name.
As for the URL I'm giving it the name of the compiled root document (home.swf). I then copied the fonts from the calling document's library to the library of one of the called documents. I then told the pasted font symbol properties to import for runtime sharing and added home.swf to the URL field. The swfs are all in the same directory but when I compile the home.fla and call the swf there is no text visible. No errors show up.
[url]...I added clear button, which clears all lines from user's whiteboard, but every other user who is connected to whiteboard, still sees lines. But when other users refresh the page, lines are gone too. That means I'm able to delete data from shared object, but I don't know how to update other users' whiteboard.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI want to share a list of visitors of chat room with SharedObject. I was going to put and array into shared object's field. Is it possible? And also I was realized that it is impossible to synchronize shared array correctly. If two visitors will add themselves to the list simultaneously, then one can be lost.Is it possible to synchronize access to shared object somehow or the only way is to write server side function to control the array?
View 1 RepliesI have a Flex application that I'm working on for a new job. It's sort of a training wheels application -- I'm learning the language, and this isn't an app that needs to talk to a service in order to do its job. There are a few instances of combo boxes throughout the application that share the same set of possible values (say, a selection of states: "In Progress", "Rejected", "Complete") that I want to have use the same data source.
What is the best way to manage this?
Lets say I have two swfs A and B, and at runtime, swf A loads swf B, and I wish to share code between them, to minimize file size and download times.
If swf B has some code (say. com.blah.HelloWorld), I tell the compiler to have swf B's source in swf A's classpath, but only do a compile-time link and not actually compile com.blah.HelloWorld into swf A
This works, and I have tried it, using a the -includes and -externs compiler options.
However, My problem is that I wish to do this the other way. i.e. swf A and B (and potentially swf C) all need com.blah.HelloWorld, but I want com.blah.HelloWorld to be compiled into just swf A, have it as an external reference in swf B ( and potentially C as well.)
I tried doing this using the externs and includes, but I get ReferenceErrors when I do this.
I want to do this without a having a separate rsl, so I can reduce the number of http requests.

I've got a Flex 3 website. How do I add a Twitter share button?
View 3 Replieswe all know its possible to make a share button for face book which allows users to share whatever item. but when we are directed to that page the user has two options. press the "cancel" button which of course closes the window, or to press the "share" button which then adds the item to the persons wall.
what i'm trying to do is determine if that share button has been pressed. see because when they press it i want my swf to trace out a message saying "thanks for sharing my item" and while i can redirect them to the page i have no way of knowing if they shared it or not. my idea was to use an enter_frame event and try and see if any data was being sent via php. because thats what the button would be doing when pressed. but i haven't had any luck making that work. here is the code so far. its a tutorial as the focus is at my problem:

I have a Singleton class instantiated in Main.swf located at domainA. The file loads Game.swf from domainB via LoaderMax [URL]. When I try to access the Singleton I guess this is not the same as the on instatiated in Main.swf.
View 2 RepliesI have an AS2 swf that has an array that is updated when a user clicks on items on the screen. The array stores the currently selected items. This As2 swf is hosted by an AS3 swf loaded in using Loader class and a local connection between them is managed by swfBridge. I want to know what the best way for both AS3 and AS2 swfs to share this array is? or how can I call a function in the AS2 (client) swf and return the array to the AS3 (host) swf when it needs to read the items from the array?

is any way I can merge this values?
alright.. recently i needed to share data between different flash .swfs on a homepage.. so i tried to use Shared Objects to do so. sofar its fine.. i tried it .. and as long as the data is stored on my harddisk. the sharedObject "cookies" work fine.. but when i put the site online.. they simply dont work anymore..
could this have something to do with security settings of the browser used?.. doesnt a web browser allow flash to access the harddisk to read and write shared objects.. is there another.. simpler and more reliable way to send data from one .swf file to another..?? (without using php -> my webserver doesnt support this sofar )
I've been recently struggling with try swfaddress links on the facebook, tweeter and friendfeed social platforms. But I could not achive because of "#" character.
Those social platforms can't recognize the full link if url is contain "#" character.

This is share link : [URL]
so, how can I share SWFaddress links?
I have a bunch of games each in there own directory with there own classes. I need to make 1 global directory with a class in it that all my games can use.

I'm trying to make a multiuser (Flash Media Server 3 compatible) version of Pictionary in AS3.(Using Flash CS3).The part that is particularly confusing me is "how can I refresh the drawing on the screen of the user who is not currently drawing?"Looking at them both they are not drawing "real time" but instead refreshing the drawing every second or so. That would be fine for me... I just can't figure out how to share the drawing. (Essentially taking a snapshot of the current state of the drawing and sending it to the other players.)Currently I'm trying to send mouse position data to the SharedObject and then back to the drawing tool but this just creates a data lag and it doesn't show on the other player's screen.
View 2 RepliesI'm using CS3+AS3 and I have a Flash project with a menu, the items in the menu can expand to reveal more items and this is currently done by having each state of the menu in a separate frame, and then doing "gotoAndStop" in this movieclip when buttons are pressed.Perhaps not the best solution, but works very well for this purpose, but as you can imagine, this means that the "same buttons" in "different frames" will do the same thing.All frames were constructed by duplicating the first frame, then moving the buttons around and adding more buttons where needed. So now I set instance names to the buttons in frame #1 and added event-listeners. But when I tested the project, the buttons that had event-listeners in frame #1 also had them in all the other frames. Now this could be an awesome feature, but right now it's more of a huge mystery to me.
ance names in frame #2, but yet they share the same instance. I searched all over the IDE but I could not find any functionality to actually determine what instances are linked, how to link instances or unlink instances. But I do know that two objects share instances when you duplicate them.So my question is, is there no functionality in the Flash IDE to actually make more efficient use of this?
On stage I have 2 objects on stage that share the base-class of "ABaseClass". Each has a child object that shares the base-class of "AnotherBaseClass". They child objects do not share the same parent, and have unique Linkage identifiers of "Object2Design" and "Object1Design", so they should be able to share the same name on the display-list, right? But if these child objects share the same name I get the following error. How to allow child objects to share base-classes and names?
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Object2Design@256cfe81 to Object1Design.
