ActionScript 2.0 :: Add An Interactive Preloader?
Oct 18, 2006
I can't get this code to control my flv. Even when I comment out the cue point code and try to just control it with buttons. I'm getting a bit frustrated. Can someone please critique my code?The flv is called: fishing_intro.flv
the playback component: myFLVPlayback
I'm trying to have my entire .swf operate around the cue points of the movie - for example I'd like to have tweens start when it reaches a mid point and the .flv to stop, and a new load movie at the end of the .flv when it starts playing again (using a variable to start play). I'd eventually like to add an interactive preloader.I've gotten all of the cue points to work, but I just can't get the actual control of the .flv to work. Am I doing anything wrong?
Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);[code]....

I have been creating a gallery for a client that changes preview images in response to thumbnail images being clicked, I have the basics working but now my client wants further interaction in some of the previews that include using buttons on the preview images that either open a web page in a new window or switch between more preview images. The problem is the new buttons that appear are embedded on the initial preview images (which are set as movies), and for some reason the interaction that has been added to these movies is stopped when run in another movie. Sorry if that sounds complicated!

I just started working on a preloader screen that includes a preloader mask over a logo and a percentage dynamic text. I can get either or to work but not both at the same time. I notice that if I remove stop(); I can get the percentage to work but not the preloader image. With the stop(); embedded the image preloader works but the percentage doesn't.

I'm wrapping up a small corporate website, but I left the preloader to do until the very end, so instead of changing any layout of my View, I just moved everything to frame 2, and put the preloader on frame 1. I'm using some of the code here: http:[url].... which seems pretty ace.
The problem I'm having though is that CS5's built in preloader is going and loading the whole swf, then it runs my preloader (on frame 1) which causes it to move strait to frame two instantly (I changed it so now it at least plays through the animation then moves on, but it's still not loading anything during that screen).that is causing flash to load the entire swf before even playing my preloader on frame 1. I don't remember having this problem in CS4.

You can see how far I have got by visiting the test site here: [url]
If you look at the gallery here and click on the item titled VIACOM, a window will open On the bottom left hand side of the window you will see 4 thumbnail boxes that switch between the preview images on the right. The second preview image has the numbers 1 to 4 on the bottom of it. These numbers are buttons and are set to switch to more preview images, but sadly it's not working.
If you are interested in seeing whats going on more clearly I have uploaded an FLA of that section: [url]

I am not exactly new to Flash in that I can do several things with it. However, I am not anywhere near expert status. I am working on an interactive map of a college campus for my employer. I am employing buttons that, when moused over, display a large image of each campus building. The question is this: is there a way to also have maybe an actionscript that would center that image automatically?
In other words, if the building I want to show is on the right hand side of an internet explorer window and I mouse over it, is there a way to have the map auto scroll the window to center the image that pops up on mouse over?

I'm doing a project in flash. What I'm trying to do is have an interactive map and have key locations you can click to view a popup and using xml call in data such as thumbnails, images and information. I've also created a scroller so when you click the arrows the map scrolls left to right except I want to make it so that when you click the arrow right for example when the map gets to the far right edge the arrow greys out (to signify that you can no longer move to the right) It's complicated to explain so here's the assets in a zip file: [URL]

I'm planning on making an interactive coloring book for a project and was looking around. I see the tutorials that are around but those are mainly click and fill in an area type of coloring books. I was wondering if anyone can point me to a tutorial that will teach me how to make a coloring book that lets the user pick up a color (a red crayon for example) and scribble in the color him/herself.

create a draggable interactive map using CS3 and using actionscript 2.1. We are creating an application for a touch screen device and we must provide a draggable map which contains 'hotspots' which when clicked provide additional information (text and pictures).
I need clickable buttons that stay in the same relative position over the map so that when it is dragged the buttons move with the map. (sorry if that sounds confusing) At present I can only get a static button working which stays in the same position and the map moves independently.

I've just started a new job, and I have the opportunity to do some work with Flash CS5 - I've never used Flash before and I'm excited to be learning new stuff! I have been tasked with creating an interactive thing... well, how 'bout I just show you
I've built it in Photoshop, but I need to make it come to life. The user should be able to grab the slider and drag it left or right and for the numbers to change appropriately. I don't even know enough about Flash to know what keywords to search to find a tutorial that'll show me how to do something similar!

Let me start off by saying that I work for a PR agency that designs all the marketing materials (including websites) for the clients. I'm very new to Flash development. I've never really used it before this project, but it's the company's biggest client, and his happiness is worth 80 grand. The project I'm talking about is a simple locator map that shows coverage areas of each sales rep. The page is located here: [URL]

I have an animation that I want to keep buttons active at the end.
I don't want it to loop, because there's an intro and I don't want the intro to keep playing, so I unclicked Loop in Publish Settings. The intro plays for several frames...then it stops on the last frame. The movies continue to loop, but my button becomes inactive. It's active during the intro, but then stops on the last frame when the animation stops.
I've tried nexting the button inside a movie, but that didn't work either.
I'm figgerin that I need to not let the animation end, but somehow loop on the last frame instead. I'm sure there's an ActionScript for it, but I've been searching and trying different ones, and I have no idea which one to use or how to make it do what I need it to.

I am trying to find a way to create an interactive brochure with page curls, hyperlinks, printable, etc. Is this possible using Adobe software?I thought it would be something you would create in Flash or Fireworks, but can't seem to find any info on it. I know you can create a primitive one in Indesign to a certain extent, but I am looking to add more that that to it.
Also, I created an interactive brochure from Indesign, but the file is about 6MB and loads very slow on the web.

I've created an interactive map with filters for the map points using if/else visible statements.
The problem is that some of the points belong to more than one filter (i.e., health, education related, etc.). So the filters act properly when selected and deselected one at a time but don't show the proper map points if more than one filter is selected.

Hi,
I am building a cryptex( the dial device from Da Vinci Code)(See attached image) I built a 3D version and I want the user to be able to turn the dials and when they release, it triggers an action. There are two ways I am considering, but not sure which is easier considering I am a beginner to actionscript:
1.) I can render out small movies of each dial turning 360 degrees, but would it be possible for the user to drag the dial and cycle through the keyframes of the clip? I saw an example of using a slider to cycle through keyframes but don't know if this is possible.
2.) The dials were built and animated in flash. (Though I am unsure if this can be done without some 3D Flash plugin, which I don't have)
Any thought or tutorials that relate to this would be greatly appreciated. I looked for slot machine tutorials, since it has similar dials but had no luck.
Thanks
Also, I have Flash Professional CS5

I need to build an "interactive floorplan" for a shopping centre (or two). Many shopping centre websites already have this (eg Bluewater in the UK). Traditionally, the way to build such a floorplan / map is to do it in Flash. The actual floorplan is a Flash asset and the data that describes which retailer is in each location is fetched from the webserver as XML. That way editors can update the location of retailers without having to edit and recompile the SWF file. However if the floorplan itself changes (for example, a larger shop is split into two smaller ones) then the map has to be edited. Another disadvantage is that the data isn't readily available to third parties for mashups etc. So apart from Flash what would you consider using to achieve the same effect? I know of SVG but IE doesn't support it.

any software that can be used to create interactive CDROMs? we have a possible job whereby an interactive CD ROM with basic animation is required. Company information is to be placed in various "Pages", and if possible some kind of "catalogue system" for a lot of PDFs would be available.
I've seen some existing CD ROM makers but they all look really cheap and unprofessional (like cheesy banners and colours etc) - what would you recommend?

We have a web-framework with Flex and Java, whose basic functionality is to execute commands at the background(Unix) and parse and send it back to the client(Flex). This works fine for all silent commands.
We are using Runtime,process to execute commands at java side on request from flex side. The same we need to do for interactive commands/scripts as well.
