View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a series of scripts that will create some custom event listeners.
I have three movie clips on my stage. One is a movieclip who's sole function is to hold array's and the event listeners. A second which moves around the screen. And a third that is motionless.
The problem is that the argument I want to test (which activates the custom event) is held within a string.
What I want to know is, how do you test to see if the string argument is true?
Is it something similar to this:
var myCode:String="1<0";if(myCode){
trace('one is smaller than 0'); //Strangely apparently one IS smaller than 0!!!
}
I think I'm going about this in the wrong manner, however this is the only way I can think of this working... (since I need to be able to dynamically create these events)
I'm trying to create a flash program that uses it's own code to send and create images. Each square has a colour and that colour gets added into the array. A black, then grey, then white is:
filecode = ["Bl", "Gr", "Wh"];
That works fine, but when I try to paste it into an Input text box it will only fill in the first part of the array.
filecode = ["Bl,Gr,Wh"];
So the program has NO idea what I want.The only ways I can think of fixing this is by putting in 402 text boxes to suit every box...But every one of them needs a Variable Name.Or by sending the information straight into the array. But this way you are just looking at what you just drew, and that is not at ALL practical.
Is the only way to create a style sheet to create Objects for each element?
import fl.controls.TextArea;import flash.text.TextField;import flash.text.TextFormat;import flash.text.StyleSheet;
I do this when a user clicks on a MovieClip:
var style:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
var heading:Object = new Object();heading.fontWeight = "bold";
heading.color = "#FF0000";[code]...
It is possible to create a menu in the contextmenu making it possible to create a window (component�) ?
example:
function tab()
{
}[code]....
OK frame 1 new fla and I type the following code:
[AS]createEmptyMovieClip("clip1",0);
clip1.createEmptyMovieClip("clip2",1);[/AS]
I have tried over and over again to get this to work but it won't! I want to create an empty MC and then create anoth MC within the first!
At the moment I create an onEnterFrame function to ease a movie clip into view. I then delete it. I want to be able to recreate a similar onEnter Frame function later to swoosh the movie clip out of view. At the moment weird things happen when I try and do the second onEnterFrame.I know I could put this all in the original onEnterFrame, but I don't wanna be wasting processor time doing an if statement every frame to work out if it's time to swoosh out the movieclip. Or should I not worry because that's negligible cpu time?

I've been playing around with custom classes. My objective was to create a custom class (Testing) that would create a box when an instance of the class is created. I've tried three different approaches, however only (3) seems to be showing up. I'm just curious why (1) or (2) doesn't work?
Also is there a better approach than (3)? Since at the moment it's been created on _root. I hope the box can only be accessible through the instance. Since I'd like to incorporate the whole idea of public, private, encapsulation, etc.

create a rollover button that once hovered over would create the snow and once 'un-hovered over' (<---:s) the snow would stop falling. I tried creating the button but kept getting errors etc.... Im a total noob (been using flash for about 1 month) if you could give us a hand that would be great....

The business card templates will have been pre approved and uploaded into the "system". The employee will be able to choose the card template that he likes the most and edit information on the card template such as Full Name, Title, Office Number, Cell Number, Fax Number, and Email. After he inputs his own information onto this template he will have the option to save the file as a pdf file, that will be used to print his business cards.

I wish to create SWF (Flash) files with PHP but what is the best option for that nowadays? When I use Google I find all kinds of old pages about this subject, but not much is happening in this field lately, it seems..Ming is no longer part of PHP 5.3, and I can't figure out how to install it with PECL.('pecl install ming' doesn't work... but neither does any pecl package I try, so I guess I do it all wrong...)Is anybody actually using PHP to create SWF's or is this a bad idea anyway?
View 3 RepliesI know this is not flash oriented but after i make my flash website i copy the files into the www folder on my linux webhosting service and the index page loads when anyone uses the website url. Now if i want to have a second website at the same url how do i add a second domain ? my hosting service shows im allowed a max of 5 subdomains. me just where to put the second sites files including its own index file and how should the url be spelt to access the second site ?
View 4 RepliesThere will be a "pool" of SWF files- I would like to create a "shell" swf that will load an external XML file that will determine which of the files in the "pool" the shell will play. I guess this would be called an XML-driven SWF playlist.Forgive me if my terminology is rather primitive- again, I'm new to XML (I'm an animator by trade.)

View 10 RepliesI have created a video in After Effects that I exported to an FLV movie. I would like to use it as an intro for my website but I would like to have a preloader for it... I don't need anything complicated, a 'youtube style' little circle thing would be totally fine.
Now I tried an Action-Script-two-frame preloader. It works but when my video finally plays, the sound is not synchronized with the images; which is kind of annoying as I used visual effects that need to be synchronized with the music and sound effects. Would anyone would have some simple AS that I could use for that.

View 1 RepliesHow do I use Flash to take the existing flv file and turn it into an swf file that can be viewed on my web server (without also uploading any flv or fla files along with it) I obviously (and desperately) need to learn and understand Flash. I have an avi file that I converted to an flv file using Corel Video Studio. Now I need to turn that flv into an swf file (since my web host does not support flv files).
So my best guess was that I should open a new Flash document, and then Import the flv video. Doing that produces a wizard that asks me to point to that file. That's simple enough. The next step - Deployment - I am unsure about, but I selected the default (Progressive Download from Web Server). I accepted the default on the Skinning page as well, and then the next (and final) page of the wizard -Finish Video Import - has a bunch of Flash-centric information that I do not really understand as I feel that I probably should.
But I acepted the defaults and clicked on Finish, and then it asks me to save the file, as an fla file .So, then I'm back to the Flash document, and I am now guessing (?!?) that I need to Export the movie.So, I Export the movie, and it gives me the swf file extension (which causes me to think that I'm on the right track).Next I get the Export Flash Player box. Since I have no idea about any of the options it offers, I just accepted the defaults and click OK.Ok so far, as this bit of guesswork actually produces an swf movie file on my local drive which actually and successfully plays the video on my computer.
Unfortunately, that is the only victory in this tale, as it seems that I am unable to reproduce that success when I upload it to my web host server.I created a webpage with the object and embed tags which I took word-for-word from W3C (and I've had success with similar pages using links to youTube videos) but when this webpage loads using the link to the swf file that I uploaded onto my hosted site, I get a blank page.
I have got set of images with whom I'll play animation like in powerpoint. Now i need to export that animation to avi, mpeg, mov format using either flex or php.

I am planning to create a photo/video gallery secured by a pin. So i plan to have 4 pages, Login, Menu, Image Page and Video View. Login would be a simple textbox where i check the pin. The Menu would show all picture albums and videos in a list i create with clickable sprites or buttons or something like that. And a video view where a video will be shown if i click on a video link on the menu page.
I tried to prepare the scene in flash cs5, so i decided to create 4 frames. ALl pages have their own layer. The first will be the login, second the menu, third the image view (incl. thumbnail show and fullscreen view popup) and a video view. On each keyframe i put a rectangle converting it into a MovieClip acting as the main container where all the stuff will come into.
Now i tried to initialize all these MovieClips by resizing them everytime the stage is resized. For this i get errors, that some of the MovieClips are null. This is because the MovieClips exist only keyframe 2 for the menu or keyframe 3 for the image page and keyframe 4 for the video view. So i have to put them all into keyframe 1 to be able to access. But i created 4 keyframes because i want to jump to them by using "gotoAndStop( n)", where n stands for keyframe 2, 3 or 4.
I dont get it, how does Flash interpret the code and how is the visibility of these MovieClips. Can i only access the MovieClip from keyframe 2 because i added it on keyframe 2 only? What is the best solution to have a simple 4 page app where on page 1 (menu) i click on video link which holds some sort of ID of the video, then i jump to keyframe 4 for the video view providing it with that ID, but how to do that when Actionscript doesnt even know there is a video container MovieClip. To get Actioscript to know all of them, i have to move them to keyframe 1, but then how to do the paging stuff.
