I am trying to breake apart text in flash (CS4) and distribute it to separate layers. The breaking apart works fine, but when I want to distribute the letters into layers, I get this: "could not complete operation because of an unknown error".
View 7 RepliesI'm having an issue where Flash is gets stuck displaying multiple layers of text simultaneously when the cursor is moved quickly through the circle of buttons and out of the .swf frame. When the cursor is moved at a moderate speed everything is functioning correctly. Below is the link to view the working .swf.[url]...
View 3 RepliesI created a website off of a template, and of course didn't learn the Flash MX 2004 program before I started and just intuitioned through it. Now, the site works great, but I want to edit it and can't get to any of the layers, because I'm sure I've fumbled the organization. I can find the clips, symbols and images in the library, but not on the Stage. Tried onion skinning, and timeline/tween clicking - no go.
View 1 Repliesthe snow effect always acts like the top layer, ok what i mean is, i have 3 layers, (1)toplayer= a car, (2)middle= snow, (3)low= background.I want to make the snow to be seen behind the car...i hope you understand what i mean , whenever i put the code from the link above it acts as the top layer and appears in front of everything.
View 4 RepliesIs it possible to add layers, re-order layers, move movieclips from layer to layer or specify which layer a duplicate movieclip appears on at runtime with AS3?I am aware of the depth properties and the functions associated with that but it would be easier to have a concept of a layer because I am dealing with masks.I have a nasty feeling I'm gonna be told that layers don't really exist within an swf and that depths and setmask are all there is to work with.
View 4 RepliesI'm getting the following error: Motion tweening will not occur on layers with ungrouped shapes or on layers with more than one group or symbol. I don't have any ungrouped shapes (it's all text), each layer has 5 instances of only one symbol (keyframes), no objects are grouped and text is all static text.
When watching the animation, the first word (web) looks fine, on the second word (design) the tween fails on the last couple of frames of that clip (the blur filter disappears), the third word (and) is OK, and on the forth word (development) the blur filter is not applied to the last 16 frames of that clip.I broke each animation into its own MC thinking that was causing the issue, but that didn't fix anything.
I'm building a survey in flash and I have multiple movie clips that cover the entire work area and are layered on top of each other, cycling through them (page to page) by tweening alpha on/off. I'm pretty happy with the way it looks except for the fact the buttons. While I can not see them, my cursor still turns into a hand if I happen to scroll over them.I've tried using, useHandCursor = false; and buttonMode = false; without any luck. Can anyone tell me how these commands work or can you tell me how you cycle multiple pages in the same flash file?

how to turn them back on with the click of a button.

This code is on the opening frame of one of my Flash files:
Code:
var myConnection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
myConnection.connect("rtmp://fvss.playstream.com/fvssod/myclient");
var myStream:NetStream = new NetStream(myConnection);
myVideo.attachVideo(myStream);
myStream.play("iLoveLALong");
It starts this song "iLoveLALong" as background music. Works great. But now I need to turn the music off when I jump to another frame in the Flash doc. Can anyone suggest code that will do that, either with frame code or button code?

View 16 RepliesI'm making a flash game (pac-man) and i have designed a level (the walls). Now when i convert it to a symbol flash makes it a rectangle (he counts the gaps between te wall as part of the symbol). This is a huge problem because when i want to test collision between pac-man and the walls in actionscript he always "hits the wall" because he is inside the object. Is there a way to convert only the walls into a symbol.
View 4 RepliesIs there a simple way to make a page turning animation in Flash? I have a book, and I need the page to look like it is turning. It happens automatically, so I don't need a button, or the page to be grabbable. I just need it to look like a page is being turned.
I found this tutorial on how to do it using aftereffects, but when I export the composition to SWF I get a black background, so that won't work. It would have to be transparent.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this?
I have a fairly complicated question about converting the data on an image into an array. At the moment the map of a game i am developing is stored like this:
ActionScript Code:
public var isle:Array = new Array(
0, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5,
0, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5,
0, 0, 1, 3, 1, 4, 5,
0, 0, 1, 3, 3, 1, 5)
However now the size of the map has grown I need to be able to convert this:
Red = 0
Blue = 1
Green = 3
Yellow = 4
Black = 5

Into This:
0, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5,
0, 0, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5,
0, 0, 1, 3, 1, 4, 5,
0, 0, 1, 3, 3, 1, 5
how to turn the autoplay off. I searched around the forums for about 15 minutes, but any mention of autoplay didn't seem to answer the question. For example I found someone who had a subject relating to autoplay and they started the bit by saying "So I turned autoplay off" but never explained how.

View 5 RepliesBeen checking out this site: [URL].. and I'm trying to figure out how they have done the image turning effect. (click on a photo, then click More Info).
It looks like it could be converting the image to BitmapData and then working with that, or it may also be using shadows/masking effects.
I'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:

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 do a PrintJob and before I send the sprite away, I want to organize the info so I thought putting multiple Sprites in a single "printable" sprite would be the way to go. The weird thing is, when I addChild one of the Sprites, it turns back.
Here's my code:
Code:
public function impressionImage(toPrint:Sprite, textToPrint:String):void {
//Cr�ation de la PrintJob
[code]...
I removed all the lines that were in comments, and here's the code that's left. The problem comes with the "contTextEtImage" sprite. If I keep it like this and I print it, everything is fine, but if I put it inside "printable", it turn all black, as if it was a huge black bitmap.
