View 3 RepliesI am just starting to use CS3 and ActionScript 3.0 and running into a few minor problems. I have my "home" button in my main menu. When I click that button, I want my opening animation which is my index.swf file to load on the stage. I used to be able to do this with a simple LoadMovie ("index.swf", 0). How would I go about doing that?

View 1 RepliesIf I published several separate SWF files from several FLA files (because they were too large to work in one FLA document) is there a way to play them automatically one after the other? I looked online and somebody suggested www.swfmergeI tried placing on the last frame of each FLA file the actionloadMovie but I don't know how to define it so that once one SWF file is done, the next one starts.I just open the SWF with explorer on windows so that I can view them full screen (they are for a slide presentation, architecture and I am showing a little bit of animation)
View 5 RepliesI have a template that have some buttons in the header. I add one button because my client needs one more section in the SWF. When the movie loads the behave of the intro is to load the first button running from flag fotogram "s1", but it's not working properly. The button get's stuck and it's not behaving like it should. When I rollOver or rollOut is not doing what it should do. Why is happening this? I'm loading another swf with loadMovie but it's _lockroot = true. I tried not loading that flash but the button is still not working fine.
View 0 RepliesIs there a way to open the "open file dialog box" in a swf using javascript.
The swf is on a webpage.
I have been working on a project for a week and suddenly it crashed during save (nothing strange had been imported or anything i just saved after moving content around) and now i cant open my file again. I contacted adobe support who claim that since the problem is related to the file this is not their problem, what a load of HORSE ****, who should i contact about this dell if its an FLA FILE!? I have already renamed the file to flash.zip then opened with WinRar and repaired as a new zip file to a different folder (which removes the corrupt content which is document something.xml) then i tried renaming this folder back to flash.fla however the file still does not open.

View 1 Repliesmy next experiments consist on loading a movie/ or gotoframe on a hyperlink with html text that i load from a .txt file.i mean this such type of html code
Code:
visit the site<a href="http://test.com" target="_self"><font color = "#FF9933"> for more info so basicly my intention is, to refer to a hyperlink but just go to a "frame" or load a movie. where you have in your FLA some more info about the site you are going to enter again, i am just experimenting with these things, it has no real purpose but it would be considered nice if it really could work.
My problem is :
A.swf : 5 frame (ie, page1, page2, page3, page4, page5)
B.swf : 2 frame (ie, page6, page7)
When click on back button in the page6(B.swf), wish to jump back to page5(A.swf) instead of page1 as normally
Script using :
back_btn.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("A.swf",0);
};
B.swf jump to A.swf, but go to frame 5 instead of frame 1 in A.swf.
What should i do for the script to achieve what i mentioned above?
I created the parent .swf file, with buttons that open external .swf files. What I would like to do is save the parent file as .exe and have it open external .exe files.

View 0 RepliesProblem with external swf loading into a main swf.I have a button inside my main.swf file that should open another swf-file, putting it on the same place as an invisible movieclip called "(projectyta)". I want it there and it works out fine.[code]The external swf file shows just as I want it to show when I press the button from the main.swf, Only, I have buttons inside my external swf that doesn't work. The external swf file just stays in frame 1 all the time.
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash MX 2004, and using the loadMovie() function to draw an external .swf file into a blank movieclip. My question is how the browser (let's assume Internet Explorer) caches this information. I know that after a Flash movie is loaded within an HTML page, the browser caches it, so that on the next load the movie appears nearly instantly from the cache. However, does it also cache the movie loaded using loadMovie(), or does it always redownload that external movie regardless?
View 2 RepliesI have 2 flash files,one is mine (the main container) and one is a external swf.I want to load the external SWF to my container SWF.I write this code in my AS2 container, inside the main timeline flash (mine flash).In the first method, I add a movie clip with instance name mc1 to the first layer:
mc1._lockroot = true;
mc1.loadMovie("external.swf");
countdown = function(){
trace("ok");
}
countdownIt = setInterval(countdown,1000);
This code works fine in most of the cases, but I found many SWFs files that it dosen't work with. These SWFs and work with the following code instead:
loadMovieNum("external.swf",0);
countdown = function(){
trace("ok");
}
countdownIt = setInterval(countdown,1000);
I really try to use that code - BUT !!! -> if I use this code the external SWF predominant, my main SWF code and all the rest of my code dosen't work (like the setInterval() timer).... I want to load the SWF like the second example and still run the setInterval() function.
I am not a stranger to Flash. I have been using it for years. I like it. I use it to create illustrations, but it has this weird issue where the more you edit the line points, the larger your file size gets, until it gets so large that you cannot open it anymore. I generally have this issue around the 7mb mark. I always try to keep an eye on my files and when they get around 3mb, I copy everything and paste them into a new file. I usually do this every two days, or so, if I am working on one illustration for a long time. However, it doesn't usually happen all at once. Today when I opened my file it was about 2mb. I closed it, and then when I went to reopen it had jumped to 14mb! I cannot open my file.
The specific error is, "There is not enough memory to open this scene. Your document is not damaged and may be safely saved. To increase available memory, close open documents or quit and use Get Info command in the Finder to allocate more memory to Flash." I have done searching on google and many people appear to get this error when there are problems with PNG's in the library for their file. The library for my file is completely empty. I have one scene, with about 10 layers. My file was created completely/exclusively in Flash. There are no PNG's or JPG's to be causing problems.
The last time this happened to me, I had a friend with a computer better than mine open the file for me, copy/paste all my layers into a new file, and then send it back. I have experience with the issue but I, unfortunately, don't know if I have any friends who can open 14mb flash files right now.
From my main.swf I want to open up a new play.swf window, while keeping my main.swf still open, but everytime I use loadMovie(),it opens up the play.swf and closes the other main.swf. how to achieve this(don't want to open in Internet Explorer, it should open standalone in flash player)

View 7 RepliesI am having issues opening up fla files using Adobe cs3.
Scenario: The company I work for recently attained a client that has a website with flash programming on it. The client recently asked to have improvements made to their site. Part of the improvement deals with modifying the flash program. The client was able to hand over to the company I work for the source for their site which includes the adobe files for the flash program.
When I attempt to access the main fla program of the client's website, i receive the following message:"an error occurred opening the file."
what options are available for me to attempt to read the fla file?
I can't open a particular FLA file in my CS4.. is there any way for me to open it? And if not in Cs4, can you recommend other Flash versions like CS3 where I can open my FLA file
