I have a project that I Am working that requires that I export data collected throughout the file in to a .csv file so it cna be exported into a Database. It has to go to a CSV because the machine that the file will be running on is not connected to a network or internet connection and is a stand alone machine. We are collecting data for a research
project here at the University.
Good day to everyone. I'm here today to seek help about Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. The story starts when one day, my boss asked me to make a flash presentation about their upcoming user training for a newly developed software. I was enthusiastic and excited about it because it's been a long time that I did not use Flash (note that I don't have any experience in ActionScript 3.0). At first, everything was a bit rough as I need to recall how to properly use the frames to create a successful animation. As I was about to finish the project, my boss approached me again and asked if I could insert a menu page in front so that the users won't have to replay the whole thing again just to look for a little something on that part of the movie. So yea, at first I was abit hesitant to accept. I said that it will work with Powerpoint. But she's a total pusher and I was forced to say yes. Now I'm having this problem about how to make a flash button load a swf movie.I've tried searching all over the net for tutorials but most of the times the "getUrl" and other stuff are said to be outdated.

I have been given an extremely tight deadline and am basically clueless on how to get these technologies jiving;
Question 1: How do I add a filter to a movieclip from actionscript,More specificly, the "adjust color" filter, and I want to decrease brightness, saturation,hue, and contrast... by actionscript...If you dont know what I mean, use the circle tool to create a circle, convert to movie clip, click the "filter" tab, then click + and add a adjust color filter, you'll see what I mean...Question 2: I need to output text to 'text' documents, no I cannot use shared objects for this, as it is a program for a client, and it isn't safe enough for me.
Code:
var archive:Array = [];
archive[7] = "Hello I am the 8th archive";

I'm just getting off the ground as an AS3 programmer and I'm having a lot of trouble getting Flash to recognize my packages. My intention is to keep a code library of all my AS3 source data and have Flash simply go fetch classes from there.
I have set Flash's source path to the following to accommodate my library:
C:Documents and Settings<username>My DocumentsMy DropboxCodeAS3src
However, when I attempt to include a class into a .fla, Flash gives me an error that it can't find the AS class files in the .fla's folder at compile time. So it seems to not be detecting the AS class files in the source path I have set.
Within src, the folders are structured as follows:
srcsivyrmap<AS classes here>
In my AS files themselves, I have written the package and class declarations as follows:
Code:
package sivyr.map {
// Includes
include "flash.display.Sprite"
[code]....
And when I write an include to grab one of these classes, I write it as:
Code:
include "sivyr.map.Grid"

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to create a rollover flash map of England. In the past I have simply got a map image, traced over each section and saved as a button with a rollover effect, job done.
However this time I have the various counties within England as individual png's with transaprent backgrounds. I have converted each of them into rollover buttons and every single button has its own layer on the timeline, but the problem arises as the mouse detects the square box around each png image, ignoring the transparency.
I want the 'hit area' for each button to just be non-transparent part of the png.
I have seen 'InteractivePNG': [URL] but am not great at actionscript and can't get it to work.
Is there some way to compile swf. with some sort of batch file?
Example: I have two as. files. In the file Graphics.as, everything that is visual, and all the functions are placed. In the file Values.as, there is nothing butt a bunch of variables, that adjust the visual things in the end swf. This way, it is easy for anyone to adjust the end result (the swf).
The problem is, that I would like to lett people without Flash CS3/4 installed on teir Mac/PC to make this swf. from these as. files.
