Is there a way to turn off the transparent appearance of the toolbars when you drag them in Flash CS3. For example, when I drag the actionscript toolbar, it turns transparent and it's really lagging on my system
i was wondering if you could completely make the toolbar in the swf window with file, edit etc disappear in as3. If it isn't possible can you please tell me how to disable key shortcuts in the swf window but with as3
I need to send up (top of page) with some command from AS3, the Scroller toolbar of the explorer (the toolbar that is to go up and down within a page)[code]...
In coloring an object using the toolbar fill palette, I'd like to simply be able to double click on the color swatch in the toolbar, rather than click on the swatch and mouse down to the color and click again with the eyedropper. What's happening is that the color swatch in the toolbar contains a variety of colors around the one that it nominally represents. e.g. If the swatch is ff0000, double clicking on the swatch is likely to color the selected object anywhere from f30000 to fe0000 depending on precisely where in the swatch you double click.
I am having a problem with CS3 Flash and the toolbar on the left. Certain tools have options and those options are not showing up. Yes, I went to Customize Tools panel and checked and those options are listed to the right of each tool that should have them (Example: Rectangle tool: oval tool, polystar tool , etc) and even hit reset to default and still those options do not show up on the actual toolbar. I made a graphic thinking that would make them show up and no it didn't.
It seems to be a problem for each tool that has a options and they are 1. Free Transform Tool, 2. Pen tool and 3. Rectangle tool.
i tried searching the forum to see if something like this is already up but i didnt see anything. If there is im sorry. My question is, in windows, when more and more windows are opened, the buttons on the toolbar get smaller and smaller. Does anyone know how to do this, an example would be great.
I have a picture that is 500x500. My stage is 500x500. I have a tool bar that is on the bottom of the screen. It is in front of the picture. My onRollOver command is set so that on roll over the picture changes. Even if I am hovering over the toolbar the image still changes. I can not for the life of me figure out how to not have the onRollOver happen when the cursor is over the toolbar. Picture = pic_mc and toolbar = tb_mc I can not figure this out and I know how simple this is, but I am just at a lose. SIDENOTE: The tool bar is not a rectangle it is an irregular shape so I can't just say X,y area I figured I could use the toolbar shape to be the "block" from the image activating the onRollOver.
I'm trying to launch a popup window from Flex, but the popup window needs to have certain properties as one can usually specify with the JavaScript window.open. For example, the popup window should not have a browser toolbar or URL box.I've tried using navigateToURL, which works fine, but I can't find a way to specify the popup window properties've tried using ExternalInterface.call, but the popup gets blocked when calling window.open directly, or even creating a custom JS function that calls window.open.
My Flex AIR App HTMLLoder() showing PDF and its toolbar Nice in Mac but under Windows XP its showing PDF but not showing PDF toolbar how can i solve it? [URL]
I am useing Flash CS3. For some reason, I will click on the little arrow on a tool like "free transform" to get to the "Gradient Tool" but it refuses to expand so that i can select the "gradient tool". I am having the same problem with other expandable items as well like the "rectangle tool" which by clicking the little arro in the lower right should expand a menu to select other tools like the "Oval Tool" etc. Does anyone know what this could be?
I have create a flash website, but I have create the forms in HTML and PHP. So I need to link the button to them. I done that but, I don't know how make it for no toolbar and fixed sixe.[code]
I m new to this forum & flash. I need to create a wbt which can run thru a 56K modem. also i want to know how can toolbar & menu bar of browser be removed when i publish it.
The proposed task has to do with the creation of an application in which the user will be able to insert, drag&drop and remove rectangles. The properties of each rectangle (name,x,y) should be saved in an xml instance.
1.Create a vertical toolbar with the above buttons:
a.new rectangle b.move c.delete
2.Create a movieclip that will be your workspace on the right of your toolbar named stage.
3.Create a function that will be triggered by the new rectangle button and will attach to the stage rectangles as movieclips named rectangle(i) (rectangle1, rectangle2,...).
4.Create a function that will be triggered by the move button and will drag and drop a selected rectangle.
5.Create a function that will be triggered by the delete button and will remove a selected rectangle.
When I save a .fla on my macbook (snow leopard OS) the main Flash CS4 application toolbar (the one with the minimize, maximize, hide buttons on it) disappears after the save dialogue has gone.To get it back I have to re-launch the app.I have checked for software updates but nothing seems to be addressing this issue.
I'm trying to create a website that is basically a flash toolbar that directs the user to different HTML pages at the bottom, much like this website here.

Do I build the bar in Flash and then the HTML portion in dreamweaver or do I build it all in Flash? Would an iFrame work for this sort of website?
I'm creating a DressUp kind of game using only external .png files for items (such as dresses, hair styles, bags etc).Some of my image files have transparent space left/right of the drawing itself. What I want to do, is set the hitArea of that certain movieclip (which contains the .png file) only to the visible area (to the actual drawing). This would be a fairly easy job if all the items had have the same size, but sizes are different from item to another.Taking the attached image, the grey area should not respond to mouse events.
I created an image in Photoshop that included a gradient layer fading from transparency to a foreground color (in this case, black). I saved this image as a PNG file and imported the file onto my Flash stage. The gradient appears on the image as expected when viewing the stage in the Flash editor, however, when I test the movie, the gradient no longer appears.
I have created a swf for the header of my website. On the top layer I have an image that stays static while the rest of the header changes images. I am trying to get the static image to be fairly transparent but am not having much luck. I created the image in PS I saved it with transparency but it doesn't look right in the swf.
URL..they rocky frame you see is a PNG and it's converted in MovieClip to be able to change it's index so it's always in front of the other objects.Problem: once I get what I want (MC+png is in front of everything) I'm not able to interact with anything under the MC anymore.I know the problem it's that the png extends for all the MC space but I really need to make those object under the frame interactable.
I have a PSD with about 30 layered transparencies. I exported each individual layer as a PNG 24 with the transparent background in tact. I then made identical layers in Flash just like I had in Photoshop, and imported each PNG to it's corresponding layer at which point I converted the graphic to a movie clip for future scripting animations. Once I got to the 24th layer Flash quit recognizing my transparencies and my first Flash layer masked anything else I brought in from layer 24 on....but the layers above remained OK!! I checked and double checked my Photoshop exports and had several Flash "gurus" check my work. Nobody can figure out what is wrong! Is there a limit to the number of PNG tranparencies allowed on seperate layers in a Flash document?
I'm working on a project where I want to use a transparent png, and when authoring in Flash CS3 (using actionscript 2.0) the png image appears transparent just as it should. However when I test it the .swf file loses the transparency entirely. The png image was saved for web from photoshop as png-24.
