ActionScript 3.0 :: Embed No Longer Working?
Nov 16, 2010
I've been using the embed tag for a while and it has been working perfectly up until now. I've got an XML file that I have embedded into my .swf, using
Code:
[Embed(source="nodes.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
and haven't had any problems. However it has just decided that it no longer wants to compile anymore, giving six errors on this line and this line only:
Quote:
Line 32 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Embed.
Line 32 1120: Access of undefined property source.
Line 32 1120: Access of undefined property mimeType.
[Code].....
I had added a new function just before this error started appearing, but it had absolutely nothing to do with the embedding and the problem still happens after I comment out everything I added before the error.
When I test it in a new .fla it still works aswell, just no longer in this one.
This is in Flash CS5, ActionScript 3 by the way.

i tried looking here with the keyword 'preloader', to find answers to my problem but I didn't.I'm a freshman AS3 developer....with a portfolio site to launch asap.
I have a movieClip in my library that is exported to AS (external jpg) - it is loaded separately from anything else in my scene (which is disrupting my normal preloader animation). When I simulate the download my preloader doesn't appear in my preview window, and I have no error message either. At first, not sure what the problem was I tried various preloader tutorials online hoping to find a solution.
I only realized later on that my preloader didn't work because of my external jpg.How can I make my preloader (code below) load everything altogether? (elements in my scene + external jpg)
PRELOADER (first frame);
Code: Select allimport flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;

I can no longer see my code. I've tried two different .fla files, one I made and one someone sent me, but no luck. Clicking on the first frame on the Actions layer, I either press F9 or right-click and choose actions. The properties panel changes, but the code list window does not open.

I have just very recently downloaded a trail version of Adobe Flash CS5 onto my laptop. The version of windows is Windows XP, and the program itself is running as well as it should.
I went to youtube to see if there were any video tutorials that could help me get started with the program. Unfortunately, right before a video will play, the browser will say there was an error, and close, and then re-try to open the page.
This problem has never happned before I installed Flash, so I can only assume it had something to do with it. Everything else on my system is running smoothly, I even checked every file and processor twice for any signs of adware that I may have picked up accidently.

Very strange thing has happened. I've had this site running fine for over a year, and recently I have discovered that the buttons that go to external URLs do not work.All of the buttons should be going to another .php file, and they have been until discovered yesterday that they do not.If you go to the .swf file directly, you will see that the navigation buttons take you to the correct .php files, but it becomes unclickable when it's in index.php.VERY strange... but then when you go back to index.php, and click the php active hyperlink "Gum Drops" at the bottom of the page, you'll get taken to the php page... and then all of a sudden the navigation, and all flash links to URLs work!

I had a forum up a few months ago, and got help getting radio buttons to work with a continue button, causing the movie to gotoAndStop at a particular frame. (This is all being done on the main timeline).Everything was working fine, now, I keep trying to do it again, but regardless of which button I click, it only goes to frame 2 where the Novice radio button is supposed to go.I think the problem is in the line of code that reads:varframeNumber=2+Number(noviceButton.group.selectedData)I know it is set to only go to the novice area, but my understanding was that since these were radio buttons, any button clicked would work, and I only needed to type in one of the unique instance names
Here is the code:
stop();
continueButton.enabled=false

I like to make alias varaibles for long names, so that i don't have to keep repeating huge lines of text, but when i try to create one for a custom class, it fails.
Code:
Clients["Client"+i] = new Client();
var Client:Object = Clients["Client"+i]
Its almost as if flash is trying to make the new variable a new Project(); instead of a reference to the other variable...

I have created a site a while ago and the client wanted flashing navigation buttons, this I have done and I he wants another page adding so I basically opened up one of the buttons, saved it as and made the changes, how ever when I preview the new index page with the added button the link doesn't work, I have also noted that one of the buttons that was working fine no longer links, i am using the following Actionscript for the links:
LessonsButton.onRelease=function(){
getURL("http://www.grangestudridingschool.co.uk/lessons.html","_self")
}
I have named the instance of the button LessonsButton and this was working, as are all the other buttons, bar the new one, I have built them in CS3 but have recently upgraded to CS4 Master collection, how ever, I have not used flash CS4 for these buttons, they have been modifed in CS3, any idea's as to where the problem may be and also why only one button has decided to stop working?

I have to embed VAGRounded bold. I can't seem to get it to work reliably. I have created 4 dynamic text boxes, one for each of the 4 styles and embedded the characters into each one for the 4 versions of the font. I then wrote some text directly into the boxes on the stage.
I created a 5th dynamic box and called it "test". I set the family to VAG ROunded, style:bold (ie just like one of the ones above). I then embedded the characters into it.
I added this dead simple as2
Code:
stop();
test.text="hello"
THis 5th text box looks NOTHING like the bold one from above, as you can see in the attached image.

I have created a website which consists of pages created from flash and dreamweaver (with embedded swf navigation bar at top of webpage)Once the home page is loaded there is a button to visit the page created with DW (with embedded swf nav bar). This works fine if I run the web from my computer locally.But if I write these entire website on a CD and access all the files from CD and then try to open the same html page from the same button in IE9; it does not work. It just keep showing the progress nothing happens. Interestingly, everything works fine on google chrome browser from the CD and also works fine from the other computer with Xp and IE8. But does not work on Windows 7 with IE9 from a CD specifically.
I have also tried to use the option in DW (called "Convert active content") for that page.which added that .js file and script on the html code. even after that does not work.I have also turned on the option "run active content from the cd" internet option for IE9 and "activex filtering" is also off on the security tab of tools of IE9.

I have set up a project (in the same way I have numerous projects before) that uses a seperate fonts SWF to provide the fonts to my project. Once loaded I register these fonts to the global font directory using Font.registerFont(). My text styles come from an externally loaded style sheet.
For some reason that I cannot figure out, when I try to create a textField and use my embedded fonts the text disapears from screen. If when creating the textField I set embedFonts to false then the text does appear at the right size and colour (as taken from the stylesheet), but obviously with a default system font where my nice custom font should be.
The code I am using is below:
TTWTextHelper.traceAvailableFonts();
TTWTextHelper.traceStyleSheet(myStyleSheet);
var myText = new TextField;
[code]....
I know that (apparently) my fonts are embeded as when I run TTWTextHelper.traceAvailableFonts() i get the two fonts listed.
public static function traceAvailableFonts():void
{
/*
* See what fonts we have to play with

I wanted to separate my embedded fonts to save filesize, so i've put them into sharedLib.SWF, and then preloaded sharedLib.SWF into flash using another SWF so that i could use these fonts further in multiple FLAs, without consuming additional bandwidth. I followed one tutorial, and checked out many different ones, to see if this issue occured to somebody else too. I had no luck finding the solution. Furthermore, i want to embed these fonts into AS-created textfields using AS.[code]I tried to create 1 TF manually, and placed it on the Stage, setting its display text to one of the embedded texts (Tahoma*). This actually worked! And one more strange thing happened.. Three of those TFs created using actionsctript, which were before blank, were NOW also filled with correct embedded text, EXCEPT one textfield which used Tahoma text non-bold, non-italic [!?]. Now how does this happen, and why the exception, i wonder.

I need to embed a SWF on a website. The swf is this interactive map at [URL](where it says select your region). So I found the SWF file and I tried to embed it on a test page, and its not working correctly. [URL] I don't know anything about flash, but the code I used was this:
Code:
<embed src=" [URL] The map is showing up, but the continents regions are not click-able, and the drop down text is not showing the continents.

So I am a photographer, and I wrote my own gallery using AS3 Anyway I do NOT use the Flash IDE for anything other than debugging and compiling and publishing. EVERYTHING is done on the fly in AS3.0 classes.
When I upgraded everything (Photoshop,InDesign, Illustrator,Dreamweaver, Flash etc... ) to CS5 and recompiled my AS3 code I got the following error. Web Design/GCSSplash/GCSSplash.as, Line 30exception during transcoding: Cannot embed local font 'Letter Gothic Std' as CFF. The CSS @font-face 'local()' syntax is not supported. Please specify a path directly to a font file using the 'url()' syntax. For [Embed] syntax the 'systemFont' attribute is not supported. Please specify a path directly to a font file using the 'source' attribute.

We have a flex application which compiles fine on windows box using mxmlc ant task but when we try to run the same build scripts on linux, it throws the 'Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet' error indicating it is not able to resolve the path to the image files.
Can someone pls. educate me on if there is a difference in the way the image files are looked up, in a CSS file, on windows vs linux.
Flex sdk version is 3.3. The same sdk is used on both windows and linux. Not sure if this has been fixed by any future 3.x sdks.

Making a piano/keyboard application and trying to figure out the best way to set this up .I plan on having a directory of sounds for each 'instrument' in my assets folder (piano1/C4.mp3,piano1/D4.mpg,...)Is there a way to import/embed all of these as an array? Also is there a way I can pass a variable to this class to indicate which folder I want to import these from? Something that would be ideal
var type = "piano2"; //passed from class being called by
foreach(notes as note){
[Embed(source = 'assets/sounds/'+type +'/'+note+'.mp3')] private const C3:Class;
public var c3:Sfx = new Sfx(C3);
}
Or would it be a better idea to have a class for each of these "types" that pulls all notes?

I am using the following line before my class declaration .
[Embed(source="C:WINDOWSFontsVERDANA.TTF", fontName="VERDANA", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", flashType = true)]
But there is no change in the appearance of the Text whatsoever.. I need the text to be crisp and clear.Just like the way it looks when we embed the fonts using the Embed... Button in the Flash IDE.
