I've made a slideshow with externally loading text and images. How can I make it so after the title screen flashes off, the first thing is the first photo/caption without having to click on the next button?
View 2 RepliesLet me first state that I am no programmer, so this may seem like a stupid question. I have done all kinds of searching on this question, and answers seem far-and-wide, and have only left me more confused. I am currently accepting bids for the development of an Android app version of our graphic novel: [URL] One of the issues/problems from my requirements document that has been raised more than once by bidders is about the Flash animation [URL] that I want to be used in the title screen, and how that will be implemented in the app. The initial programmer that I was working with had real problems with and was never able to get it to work. I know that in order to use the swf file as-is, Flash needs to be installed on the devices, and that is not an Android standard. So I want to know what options there are to be able to include this.
A couple bidders have suggested that the animation be converted to video. And although they claim that they could still make it work correctly, I worry about losing the looping that is built into the animation. Can the animation be converted to or re-created with Java? Should I be looking into using FLash Builder and/or Adobe AIR? We will eventually be porting this app for Apple iPads as well, so if there is an option that woks for both Android and iOS, that would be better.
I am trying to create a flash animation in which a text title fades in to the screen. I created the text, converted it to a symbol, then tried to create a motion tween in which I could tweak the alpha values of the text object. However when I try to create the keyframe, the popup that comes up has the Color option greyed out (which is where I believe the alpha setting lives).
View 1 RepliesIs a command for AS2 to make my movie file play fullscreen (stretch, fit to screen, anything).
goFullScreen(); is great but it leaves white bars left and right. What's odd is that I'm using Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder and it seems to display a perfect widescreen that I want as an input and output but once compiled in flash, it's more square leaving me with white bars left and right. The frame for the video in flash is also widescreen looking.
edit: I ended up stretching the width of the frame but if there is a better way through a command that would make my life easier so I don't have to adjust to every monitor that I run this on.
I'm making an interactive video and the title screen isn't working. Instead of waiting to start until the play button is hit the video just plays the 1 frame screen and startsThis is what I have:
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickPlay);
function clickPlay(event:MouseEvent):void
{
[code].....
I'm trying to make a 2D SpaceShooter for my Flash Class and so far i have the Game working. All I need to add is a menu screen where it says to hit play and a play agian button when you lose. I'm working on my menu screen right now and I get an annoying error saying
ScreenTitle.as,Line7
1084:Syntax error:expecting identifier before right brace {
Here is the code:
package {
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
public class ScreenTitle extends {
public static const PLAY:String = "";
public function ScreenTitle() {
play_mc.buttonMode = true;
play_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickPlay);
} public function clickPlay(e:MouseEvent) {
dispatchEvent(new Event(PLAY));
}}}
Ok, So I've decided to show some information on my site, but instead of using a static table, I've decided i wanted to use flash.Basically, want I want to do is have 3 bits of information to be displayed in the flash and a start screen.When the flash loads, it will show the starter Screen. From there the user will select either one of the three buttons,which will direct them to one of the 3 bits of information. I was thinking each bit of information on a different frame.How would I link the Buttons to the information?

View 1 RepliesI have just finished a flash movie for a client which is an interactive payslip to explain all the different sections. They have got back to me and said it's great but I need to make this accessible for screen readers etc, and sent me the following link: [URL]. I have read through it all and I am slightly confused as to now how to make my complete movie accessible. Can I just add in the text links on the Accessible panel for the movie clips or will I have to create a whole separate column of hidden content for people to tab through?

View 1 RepliesI am making a flash presentation I have buttons on the top presentation that will navigate to differnt slides.The question i have is for each button I have the behaviors set to show the screen I want and hide all of the other screens.I have to go to each button and do a hide each screen one by one, I have about 40 of them. Is there a easy way to do that in bulk. I.E. If i have button 1 I want it to show only screen 1 and hide screens 2-40. Button 2 will show only screen 2 and hide screens 1, 3-40
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a Flash video slideshow (which you can preview here).
I would like to be able to make it so you can click a button (I've got one made in the doc already) that will make just the video on each "slide" go full screen, similar to how you can do so with other videos on sites like YouTube and others.
While what I've linked to above is just a template I'm messing with, I'd like to be able to have a video on the right, let's say, with text on the left, and then be able to click a button (perhaps under the video that says "full screen) and have the video that is there fill the whole window and play. And then, hitting escape would bring you back.
I've seen plenty of tutorials for making Flash go fullscreen, but nothing out there yet for just the FLV contained on the page go full screen.
I am making a Full Screen flash site and I need my BG to scale proportionately. Currently I am using:
Code:
_root.attachMovie("bg3","bg3",_root.getNextHighestDepth());
bg3._x = Stage.width/2;
bg3._y = Stage.height/2;[code]...
I was wondering how would i go about making a simple application that can be run on a website that can:
-show a opening page that will stay for 5 seconds (for advertisments)
-show random pictures (well they will only be text)
-can change slide by clicking on screen.
make one of my images in a slideshow (which the images are linked externally through actionscript) load a button that is only accessible when that specific image is shown.
for example-image 1- no button but image 2 has the button, image 3-no button, image 4 no button.... and so on.
heres my script for the slideshow and prev and next buttons
var totalSlides:Number = 6;var currentImage:Number = 0;var imagePath:String = "images/ad";var imageName:String = "ad";var imageExt:String = ".jpg";
var adImages:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
[Code].....
is it possible to change the icon and the title in the title bar? are there any opensource or low cost ways (prehaps software with a education licence) to change the apperance of the projector window.. like for example itunes, breaks out of windows xp standard UI

View 1 RepliesMaking a photo slideshow to load as an external movie clip on my site when a button is pushed. Here is a link to the .swf file: [URL]. There is text that describes each set of 6 pictures. After the set of 6 pictures plays through the text is supposed to disappear and a new text appears to label the next set of 6 pictures. Problem is: the text doesn't disappear! I made all the text layers a symbol/movie clip. I animated each text to disappear at a certain point in the timeline but when I test the movie the texts just remain there and build up one after the other. When watching the movieclip, pay attention to the text in the lower left screen.

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a slideshow using a class that I wrote that builds the slideshow and an XML file that points to the images. I plan on improving it later but for now I just want it to cycle through a set of images, resize them if they're too big or small, and show a loading bar while the image is loading. It works fine if I test it in the Flash IDE or standalone Flash Player, but if I drag the SWF into Firefox or Safari, the loading bar refuses to show up. I also tried publishing to an HTML file and that didn't work either. I figured there could only be two different reasons why it wasn't showing up - either it wasn't being added to the stage, it wasn't being made visible after it's initially set to invisible. I decided to comment out the part of the code that make it invisible to begin with the loading bar showed up, but it wasn't showing how much of the image had been loaded when it changed to a new picture. Here's my code:
[Code]...
For some reason the pictureLoading function isn't being called when I test it in any browser. I've seen the loading bar randomly pop up a few in times in Safari 4 but then I try closing the window and testing it again and I get nothing. Can anyone help me figure this out? About:plugins in Firefox says I have Flash Player 10.0.22 installed, and I'm using Flash CS3 in OS X.
I found a tutorial online to do a Image Slideshow. [URL]. But, I can not get anything to work. I am new to this and unfortunately do not have time to do any formal training right now. Probably when this project is done. When I "test movie" I just get a white screen w/ nothing on it. I should be getting a box 500x500 w/ a box that is 400x400 for my frame. I just finished step 3, and I do not get my frame box like a should.
Here is what my .xml document says:
<slideshow width="400" height="400" speed="5">
<image url="images/1.jpg" />
<image url="images/2.jpg" />
<image url="images/3.jpg" /> .....
And here is the action script.
var myShowXML = new XML();

I have a slideshow that is set up to run on an LCD screen. The problem is the slideshow turns to a white screen when left running overnight. I would like the slideshow to continuously play without having to do a browser refresh each day. I am thinking there is some build up of memory that is causing the problem. I have a loop to continually check my xml file to see if anything has been updated.

View 5 RepliesI have a third party slideshow instance (SlideShowPro (SSP)) and have used the following code to allow SSP to resize to screen:
import net.slideshowpro.slideshowpro.*;
import flashx.textLayout.formats.BlockProgression;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
[Code]....
It all works fine. However, I am trying to put in links on the stage outside of SSP (i.e., Home, Gallery, About, etc.) as shown in this example website [URL]. When I do, the stage is truncated and part of SSP is skewed off the page.
How do I make sure that my stage containing text and SSP is captured as the SWF?
I'm trying to edit a Flash file, that get it's data from and XML file.Now when you click on one of the menu items, the page + page title should change, but somehow the page title remains the same. (at least for the first 3 menu items) But when you go to the last menu item and then back to one of the first 3 menu items, the correct page title is shown.I'm no flash / AS expert, so I can't really find out what the problem is, but it seems like it has something to do with this function
Code:
_root.getCurrentText(thisText0, _parent.num);
