i have downloaded a flash intro (swf + fla)the swf which i downloaded is working so good but when i open the fla file to edit the source and export it to swf i have many errors, even if i didn't edit any thing (just open it in flash then export it again) i have that errors
**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Action Layer, frame=1:Line 1: Function name expected
function ()
**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Action Layer, frame=1:Line 3: Unexpected '' encountered
x03 = 2008 % 511 * true;[code]........
in addition to, after all these errors the exported swf file just keep working again and again without a stop at end......so what is the problem?
I am a Java programmer and I can read and edit most anything I get my hands on. I don't work much with flash and when I do there is no reason to look at any sort of source.I received a file from someone to add to a project and the instructions were to open the .fla in CS5 and edit certain lines to pioint to directories . The file is and interactive app type.I have tried doing this but I am at a loss. I had thought that I would just be able to view some source in the file and edit those lines and export the ,swf, but I can see nothing like that.
View 3 RepliesI've recently upgraded to CS4 and the latest version of Flash - I was wondering if it's posssible to open SWF's as .fla files? I'm a complete Novice in Flash even though I've worked as designer over 10 years.

View 3 RepliesHow to open an mxml file? Been using Actionscript for a while, but new to Flex.
I've a project that i've been asked to make a quick change to with 3 folders and a mxml file, but have no idea how to open and edit them with Flex!
I have flash as part of the CS3 suite but I never use it, don't know how. However I have a need to convert some flash files to something that can be uploaded to the web, ala YouTube. So naturally I opened a .flv file with Flash and simple went to File->Export hoping (but doubting) it would be that easy. Of course, that did not work. The result was a half second of blank white screen.
Is there a quick and simple way to open a Flash file and convert it/export it as .mov (or some other format for uploading to video sites that don't accept flash files)?
Currently I am using SWFDOTNET libray for reading and writing swf file,which supports swf file from version 1 to 7.Is there any other open C# source lib for reading and writing swf flash which supports swf file version 8,9 and 10?
View 1 RepliesI'm actually relatively new to flash and actionscript but I could say I have fair knowledge about them. So anyway, I usually build flash websites the traditional way using timeline animation and scripting. Today I had a job interview and they said they're looking for someone who can develop any web design into a Flash CMS with a back-end office for the client to edit the content without having to edit the FLA file or any code.
Accordingly, I'd like to know where and how to start. What are the main concepts I should follow/adapt?
How do you edit the flash export settings so when its exported you can disable Play, Loop, and other stuff like some shockwave and flash animations?
Also how do they make a full screen ad, sometimes seen on yahoo.com, with flash, but everything else is transperent cept for an object.. e.g. a car driving across the screen and you can still see everything around it! Thats really kewl hehe
I've recently taken over the website for the company I work for (has been freelanced outside of the office). The previous webdesigner created a flash menu for the top of the pages, as well as a flash element on one other page. I have no Flash knowledge. On the other page with the flash element here: [URL], in the page content on the right there's the bulleted, numbered links. See how the numbers aren't centered on the button? I'm able to open the fla file & can find the elements & where I need to edit, but no matter what I do I can't get the numbers to center on the button.
I've opened each & selected both the number (which is a text element) & the button & have centered horizontally, made the same width & height, etc., etc. but they're still not centering. Now for the menu bar at the top of the page (can look at same page for reference), I can't figure out how to change the text on some of the buttons. For instance I want to change Home Serves to read Custom Homes. I find the symbols & they appear to be images, so is it safe to assume the previous designer created buttons with the text already on them? Also how do I removed some of the drop down items in the menu bar, specifically under Our Galleries?
I want know if it is possible - in any way - open FLA files (from versions 6 to 8) into an third IDE, edit this file, converting, for example, texts and animations, automating codes wich converts static texts into dynamics, accessing database etc and export a brand new SWF movie.I have a costumer that told me about a "miterious" programm wich can do all this things like edit/export - direct from his FLA files - a new SWF or EXE media. And save another FLA file with all those modifications. In other words: is it possible I make my own Flash IDE?
View 1 RepliesQuick question, has anyone ever come across either a web cam API or an open source alternative that can be easily integrated to a site without having any Flash or ActionScript experience.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to learn more about flash, and have found a couple of useful sites.However, I'm having trouble working out how to use their source files, and wondered if anyone here might be able to help please.url...I can't work out how to compile it - I know I need the Five3D files (url...), but even when I download that, and then create a .fla file in the same directory, nothing happens.I am probably missing something very obvious, but I can't work out what to do.There is a .fla file, but there is NOTHING in there that links to the .as file - there is no ActionScript at all I can see if the FLA file, that links to the .as file.
View 2 RepliesI can code things fine myself but I've never used anyone elses code components to build something. I need to make a magazine that has a page fli effect and someone pointed me to Rubens flex book component (I'm assuming I can use it with flash). I've downloaded the zip file but I'm not sure how to actually start making my book. Everything is in different folders, because I assume they all are interlinked and are specificied with their paths within their classes.
I'm thinking I need to make a fla and then a document class and link that to the fla. But what do I put in the document class?

View 1 RepliesI want to create a Flash application but I do not want to pay the $700 for Flash Professional CS5 (neither to pirate it). I have been looking at previous questions here in SO and around the net for hints of free software allowing to develop flash apps.
From my current research, it seems the tools I need are:
1. FlashDevelop or similar to create and compile ActionScript code.
2. Pencil, Synfig or similar to create animation (is it possible to export to fla?
3. ?? to put everything together and compile a swf file.
My question is whether anyone has successfully followed a similar path to build a flash application using only open source. And better yet, any good web site with documentation on how to tackle such a task. I have looked at the Open Source Flash Projects page which contains a comprehensive list of flash related open-source projects and libraries...

View 6 RepliesI'm new to the world of flash...I want to write some ActionScript that streams audio to a server. My development environment is linux and eclipse using flex3sdk/axdt plugins.
I've been told that in my environment (aka open source/free tools), the Button class is not available, but that replacing that functionality through the use of Sprite/DisplayObject is possible.
I imagine I'm not the first person to want to do this, so my question is: are there open source libraries out there that have already solved this problem?
Is there any free or open source software that does a great job at debugging as3 applications, like flex does?

View 5 RepliesI've created a custom video player which links to a specific Video with:
theVideo.attachVideo(ns);
ns.play("videoName.flv");
I have a client who wants multiple players on a page, each playing a different video. The tricky part is that they want to be able to add videos to their website with this custom player on their own, without having to go into the flash file.
Anyone have an idea or where I can find out how to do this? I dont' think XML would work, because it would still have to call a specific node inside flash...and this one swf should be able to work with any .flv they want.
