View 6 RepliesIt is very simple to retrieve data from a database and display it inside a DataGrid. However, what are the current practices to push the changes in the DataGrid back to the database? One can achieve this by inserting a lot of meta information, however, it is very tedious and not reusable.

View 2 RepliesIt seems that the loading process times out sometimes and it freezes the flash.To prevent that from happening, I thought about adding an onLoadError which loads a default image in the Library so that the slideshow continues what it was doing even if an image can't be loaded.

I'm confused about changing an instance's animation. I'm working on a really simple game to learn AS3 and I've got the controls down, but don't know how to change the animation of the player instance. I have movieclips for different animations, which I assume I should, but don't know how to switch the instance's appearance between them.

View 1 RepliesSo I have a text which is saying for instance "hello". And when i press a button there is an animation which starts to erase the "hello" text and a pencil is writing a second text. So somewhere in the middle there is a blank text holder( i mean the place where the text is suppose to be)! The question is - is there a way with code when the animation have reached a certain frame to change the text because i can't do it with animation!
View 1 RepliesI have to create a website in flash for a project that requires me to use the following animation:
Code: Select allimport fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.Regular;
[Code]......
I would ideally like this to run during the preloader sequence, but when that didn't seem to work, I figured I would just have it run before the preloader. Unfortunately, even though it works fine on it's own, it will not work when I place it within my website file. I originally had it contianed within a movie clip, and again, it would work okay in a separate file, once I added it to my website file, it stopped working, but I'm still not getting any errors. how to get it to move somehow, even if it has to happen before or even after the preloader?
I have uploaded both the animation in it's separate file (preload play) and the website file (spsite_0046) here: [URL]

View 1 RepliesI've created a text object, writing let's say "HELLO". I then made it into a picture, and erased parts of the text, all the while taking frame captures (F6). It ended up looking great, even though I had 900+ frames. However, I now want to change the font colour...in each of the frames. Any easy way to accomplish this, I cannot go frame by frame. The object is in the same place each time, so if I could just put a mask on all the frames or something to change the colour to black, that would be sweet. I followed this tutorial [URL].
View 4 RepliesWell the animation works okay despite the convoluted timeline. You can select any transfer case mode by moving the slider switch. To shift into neutral from any gear, you press the neutral (N) button. To exit neutral, you press the neutral button again. If you shift into N from either 4WD Auto or 4WD Low, the slider switch jumps to 2WD even though there should be no movement and the animation goes where it is supposed to. It's been a long time since I've been able to work in Flash and it's so close to complete that this is driving me nuts.

I made two movieclips with things happening every 20 frames up to 100 frames. I wish to turn this into a percentage logic so that the actionscript makes my MC moves to the next 20 frames every 20%. See what I mean?

I wanna know how do i insert an animation in a preloader.
View 1 Replieslet's see if I can make this comprehensible. I have a template with an xml dynamic menu. When a button is pushed two movie clips are loaded: 1) a main clip, which has a Kirupa designed preloader taking up the first two frames and 2) a movie clip that contains "controls" (interactivity or animation) for the main clip. All worked great until I added the preloader. Now both movie clips load but the controls no longer act correctly. Do I have to tell the controls to jump to the third frame of the main clip or something because the preloader takes up the first two frames?
