ActionScript 3.0 :: Convert External File To Internal Actions?
Nov 2, 2009
I'm wondering if there's a "fix" for converting a tutorial that uses an external .as file to using ActionScript internal to the Flash file itself.For example, the Colorful Explosion tutorial runs all of its ActionScript from a separate file that must be present with the swf file to run the animation.
[URL]
Is there a way to have all of the animation ActionScript run from within the swf file by, say, pasting the code into the Actions panel or other internal method? I just don't want to complicate a project with multiple files and want others to only have convenient access to a single swf file.

I've got a project that I've been avoiding because it's something I've never done before. I have a concept game that I put together with internal AS3. I wasn't given much time make it work, otherwise I would have done the code externally to start.
The project is now 'go', but I want to convert the crappy internal code to external. I don't have any of those fancy IDE's. I could get one, if it would help.Does anyone know of any tutorials covering internal to external conversion? Has anyone else done this? Is there a simple list of things to convert to make the code work externally?

I have a bunch of code inside my actions panel but I want to switch it to being in an AS file which would be external to the FLA file. I am looking for a tutorial or data on this. What terms do I search under?

I was wondering what the best way to load my flash game would be. I know how to make an external preloader, but if I want to upload the .swf of the game to a site like newgrounds, Im guessing I need an internal preloader.I've tried a few times but my game only displays after the swf is 100% loaded. While its loading I just see white screen with grey "..." which im guessing is built into the flash player.
I have a .fla called AsteroidsGame.fla which has a library of some classes, and the game's structure is coded into a .as file called AsteroidsGame.as. Maybe this is causing issues?

I understand loading external text into flash through actionscript to produce a quick way to modify text without modifying the flash movie. The problem is being able to create hyperlinks in the external text to navigate within the movie (website). So my question, Is there a way to load external text but with the ability to code links into words or phrases that point to instance names (frames) within the movie (website).
current method
create *.txt file
*.txt loads into .swf file
.swf is called from loader component on main movie.Or is this impossible and the text has to made within the main movie and edited through flash?

if inside a movieclip my_mc I have onPress=function_1;
and then on the main timeline I have
attachMovie("my_mc","my_mc",1);
my_mc.onPress=function_2;
Then function_1 will not be called at all as my_mc.onPress=function_2 will screen off the internal onPress=function_1?

I'm creating a Flash interactive thing which is basically a couple minute animated intro and then a menu of products to choose from. You click on one of 12 products and get a little animation about how it works. So my question is where to put these 12 product animations? I was originally thinking to just put them in the main timeline and just jump to them with labels but I'm thinking that the timeline is going to get too hairy, it's already got a lot. Now I'm wondering what the best approach should be. Should I produce 12 external SWF movies to be loaded when clicked on, or should I just make each product animation an internal movie symbol and just add an instance from the library to my main timeline? Or is there any other approach that might be better for some reason?

When retrieving external variables from the server URLVariables my Flash get stuck on first compilation values. Whenever I update server values flash compiles the first old values. Only after i restart CS4 IDE values are updated. Is there an internal cache?
There is nothing wrong with my code, because it works fine on my mac, but not on pc.

I am creating a side scrolling game in Flash (as3) and trying to keep things organized and clean.Ive created a "Level" class that gets all the level data, player data, and creates all the terrain objects and the player object. Its starting to get messy because im handlng all of the functions for player collision checks and player movement, terrain movement, sound starting and stopping, enemies, and more, all in this class. Is this normal? Or is there a better way to organize things to keep them separate, but still allow them to interact with each other.

Working on my first real project in as 3.0, trying to decide how to best work in a preloader. What I have is a single swf containing some assets, and a target to a main doc class. After loading those assets onto the stage, it runs through a routine to load several other swfs, and then 'does stuff' with them... anyway. got all that working nicely. How, now to best track the loading of the main swf? If I understand it correctly the Loader class is purely for loading external assets. well - what about internal assets?
Got this:
ActionScript Code:
//A large SWF file can monitor its download by calling
this.root.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, func)
I think it would be called AFTER the whole main.swf has loaded. In AS2.0 i could target _level0 to get information back about the currently loading swf...
ActionScript Code:
initPercent = (_level0.getBytesLoaded()/_level0.getBytesTotal());
But, again, these are internal assets, not even living in memory yet. As far as I can tell - I need to use a preliminary (separate) swf to load the main.swf. (Like i used to do with AS2) - But if there was a method of targeting internal assets - a 'self loader' that would be cleaner...

Not sure if I'm in the right place, I apologize in advance if so. I'm somewhat proficient with html, but fairly new to flash, using cs4pro, as3.Here's my dilemma. Converting an existing html/css site to flash. Flash is main site now but a few html pages are still linked, a buy page and a form page, a few others. I can get the all the external html pages to link to a frame in the flash movie, and I can get the flash to link with all external urls.My problem comes when I move to a frame outside the main timeline. The movie is lets say 393 frames. All symbols/content are on seperate layers, and so is the action. Once the full movie ends, I have several frames past that where I have basically created frames for additional "pages" and created anchors for those frames, new layes for content, new layers for anchor (labeled) and new layers for a stop(); on each frame, I extended the pertinant graphic frames out to 410 from the original movie.
Now when the movies runs the buttons appear at about frame 115, so in the action layer I coded a keyframe and then added frames of it out to frame 410 or so: I have attached the .fla (not able to attach at this forum .fla here:s say to an external link (button) like members, the html member page opens, and if you click home button, back to flash frame, and all works, all buttons, on the home frame 393. But if you go to any of the external htmls, and then go back to any other frame like frame 401 the about page, and all the rest 402 403, etc, the page appears properly, but then none of the links function.

I am a high school student who has an assignment to develop a Flash Video. My goal is to make a really cool Flash Video by downloading a Youtube video of paintballers and then converting their images to a line drawing and then animating the line drawing. Well the problem is that after I've imported the FLV into Flash CS5 I find it impossible to edit out an internal chunk of the video. Every time I try to remove a chunk of the video, it ONLY DELETES A SECTION FROM THE END OF THE VIDEO!
Now, it should be a simple process, select the chunk, Edit->Timeline->Remove Frames
It seems so obvious that I don't mean to delete the END of the video, I mean to delete the highlighted section. What's the point of highlighting a section if you're just going to delete "X" amount of frames on the end? Shouldn't this feature be called, "Delete frames from end of video"?

StackOverflow community,[URL].. used to launch AIR applications from Flex applications requires the use of an air.swf file located here:[URL].. We have tried to download this SWF and use it in our internal network, but it is not working, we depend on using the one located in the Adobe site.
Is there anyway to use this air.swf file without having to access the Adobe site?

I have a swf (members.swf) that loads a list of members using an xml. In the information text for each member I would like to put a hyperlink that would load another swf (image_gallery.swf) that also uses an xml file. Ideally, I would like to create an xml for each member (member1.xml, member2.xml, member3.xml etc..) holding their image gallery information BUT I would like to use the same swf (image_gallery.swf) to load each member's image gallery according to their xml file data.
So basically I would like link to a swf file and specify the xml to be loaded for that swf in the hyperlink.

My main movie is called 'main.swf' and it is importing 'newgallery_1.swf' to the target named 'holder1'. It imports fine some functions work ok for example the movie pans left to right depending on the mouse x position. However when I tried to add something like the mouseOver tool tip I found here on Kirupa to a button on 'newgallery_1.swf' it works when viewed normally but when I import it to 'holder1' it no longer works.

I have a swf called main.swf that is loading an external swf called main-intro.swf.main-intro.swf has a clip that fades up and then I have a stop action 24 frames in. The problem is is that I get a null object reference error (1009) when calling the external swf. If I remove the stop action then it works, if I rename the external swf to intro-main.swf it works with the (stop action).It seems it just doesn't want to run the external swf's actions when it's called main-intro.sql

I have the following scenario:
One application JEE / Flex 4 running on a tomcat, inside my Flex layer I have a iFrame passing a url to an ip of my internal network (http:url....) which is another application running within an industrial PLC.When access this app from within my internal network works fine, but when I try to access this iFrame to an external network in my home for example have a timeout error onhttp:[url].........
I believe this error occurs because the flex client is trying to run this url as I was in a internal network.Is there any way to run this url from an external network?
