Actionscript 3.0 :: Display Video File In An Imported SWF File Fullscreen In Flash?
May 23, 2011I am using a flipbook Flash/Actionscript 3.0 framework for a digital magazine[url]...
You can have videos embedded in the pages of the flipbook, but they can not be display fullscreen like Youtube videos, for example.
The flipbook can also import swf files to display as pages of the flipbook, so another way of embedding videos into a page of the flipbook would be to have the video player in the swf page you are embedding. This gives you more control over the style and the positioning of the video.
My question is: Is there a way with AS3.0 to togle the embedded video from normal predefined size to fullscreen and back?
Imported PSD File Has Unwanted Border
Jun 22, 2010When I import a psd layered file I get an unwanted (red) border appearing around the art and as a box around the art. This doesn't exist in the psd file, but appears in the flash file. Should I convert and import it as something else? Is it a resolution setting in flash?

Sep 23, 2010I have a feeling this is a really basic question, but I am pretty new to Flash. I've imported an FLV file. This file is a slideshow of photographs with a Ken Burns effect already applied. I was hoping that I would be able to see the video frames on a timeline.What I then want to be able to do is jump to different frames (approximately where the photo changes) as a result of clicking buttons.

IDE :: Why Is Mp3 Imported The File To Fla Library So Large
Apr 1, 2010I have a mp3 file that is 2:30 long and is roughly 5.5mb. How come when I import the file to my fla library it sees it as being 29mb large. My swf isn't large when I compile the project but the fla file jumps from 2mb to 30mb just from adding this sound file. P.S. This site has been a ton of help with different aspects of my flash project.

View 2 RepliesProfessional :: Imported Photoshop File Exported As?
May 27, 2010I've imported a multi-layered Photoshop file (that contains layers with elements smaller than the project size... so each layer is alpha with an element floating somewhere on the canvas.I was pleasantly surprised to see that it not only imported into Flash CS3, but also kept all the alpha and successfully exported as a Flash file with the alpha (of each layer) intact. I didn't think it would be able to do that!Anyway, the one thing that concerns/interests me is whether whatever it's doing is compatible on all systems that it'll reach. At first, I thought it was converting each layer into a PNG file, since (to the best of my knowledge) jpegs dont' support transparency, and the layers were not converted to vectors.
So, what exactly IS it doing to each layer? What is it exporting them as? How compatible is that on other systems (browsers, O/S's, etc) these days? Also, are PNG files now fully supported in all browsers and systems?I'd hate to build my whole site, only to find that it's not compatible on some other system....Bit of back story... I'm creating a multi-layered interface (background, then another level with some random loaded swf file, then the 'moving stuff' (nav buttons, titles, etc), and then an odd shaped frame on top of that. Previously, I did it by making everything with Flash vectors... but this time, I tried making all the elements/layers in Photoshop with just bitmaps (rather than vectors), as I wanted a bit more detail.
Originally, I was considering vectorizing them, so it would be all vectors and no bitmaps.... but with all the gradients and details, they would be an inefficient nest of vectors.... quite a mess.So, then I considered doing most of the screen as a bitmap background image, and putting the 'moving stuff' as vectors on top (...and perhaps use masks so that they appeared to go behind the frame and foreground items... but I was worried that (on perhaps other systems or configurations) the image and the vector matte wouldn't align for some reason.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Imported MP3 Taking Up Too Much File Space?
May 3, 2011I imported 12 mp3 files which run at 32kbits (the lowest for my mp3 recorder), and all totalling 404 kb and less than 1:30 of playing time, yet when I imported them they had my FLA file jump in size, from 6.50 mb to 25 mb. I have a major need for file size reduction here. Is there something I can do about this? I tried the compression tools in Flash but they didn't alter the file size.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text With Xml Imported File
Sep 29, 2010I was working on a dynamic text with xml imported file which contains this kind of code:[code]I have more of that example along the xml file, they're kind of a little newspaper. It has no other kind of code in it.Anyway, I wanted to format the text of the body to "justify",but somehow, with justify option selected on the dynamic text box (if that's enough to work), in flash, it didn't work.So i've heard that justify didn't work, or didn't exist on previous versions of flash, so I've verified the version of the flash file and "voil", it was a 6.0 version.But now, that it's on version 10, the text disappears on *.swf file... And I don't have a single clue about it..Because on version 6.0 it was all ok, except the standard left alignment.

Modify An Imported Illustrator File After Import Into Flash?
Jan 28, 2011I'm trying to come up with a convenient workflow for importing .ai Files into Flash. While the import works fine, there is one major drawback: If an artist decides to update something within the .ai file, then it is frustratingly hard to make that change in Flash as well, since it is not possible to just "update" any of the imported assets from Illustrator.
There is an "update" function available in flash for imported graphics which are linked to bitmap files (.png, .jpg, etc.), but so far it does not seem possible to kind of link imported assets to an external file and maintain that link.
Or does anyone know of a way to use Illustrator files as a basis, import into Flash, and make it possible to re-import the .ai file and actually overwrite all library items that already exist? Usually Flash creates copies of the imported ai file.

Apr 24, 2011I am a Flash novice who was asked to do a brief training exercise on importing a simple .swf (3D animation) into Flash. However, I cannot figure out how to center the .swf on the Flash stage. Flash always places it in the top left corner of the stage, and while I can center each individual frame of the 50-frame animation by using the align feature in the properties window, I do not know how to center the entire 50-frame clip all at once. Do I have to use ActionScript to do this? And if so, what is the exact code I would need for this, and what exact procedure would I follow?

Flash 10 :: Imported Images Increase In File Size?
Jun 29, 2011I have a small question about the size of images imported to flash.Recently I imported a series of png images to flash CS5 to be used in an animation, 92 images to be exact. Each image was 34Kb size. Before I imported the images, the FLA was 6kb, and after I imported them the FLA was 160 MB large. Now 33Kb * 92 isn't 160 MB, so why does this happen? Is there any way to decrease the image quality or something when importing, or do I have to do that manually when creating the images?
(I used photoshop, and the images have a transparent background if that makes a difference).

You can either click on the gargage door again to close it or click on the top of the tool chest to close it.

The main movie that is importing garage.swf has navigation for the contact forms. I need to code the buttons on the tool chest to match the code on the main movie so if you click the buttons on the tool chest they will respond as if they were the buttons in the main movie that it has been imported by.
