get all MovieClip objects that have been exported for ActionScript from a compiled SWF. It seems like it's something that should be possible, but I've never done/needed to do it until now, and it has me a bit puzzled.I guess I could just export all of the SWFs individually, but I'm looking for a better way to keep track of my items...
View 1 RepliesSo I wondered if there is some way to retrieve a list of all movieclips that are in the library that have been exported in frame 1.
View 0 RepliesI have a flash file I've built with various buttons linked to my website. Strangley, the links work perfectly in live preview (ctrl+enter)
however when I save as a .swf file, export as movie or publish - the links no longer work!
I'm working through Dreamweaver fairly well, and I'm now wanted to import Flash buttons I've created myself into Dreamweaver for a website I'm currently building, and it's here that I'm finding the problem. I have been to the 'get URL Function', but it says something about needing to link to a web page? But my problem is how can I link Flash Buttons to a web page, when my site is still being developed and not published? Do I have to publish first?

A sore point but can we simply export our apps to the iPhone with CS5 or would we need to "tidy up" some bits first. By the way, would I use vector graphics or bitmaps preferibly not to over use the iPhone processing power.

View 1 RepliesI created a MovieClip symbol in flash containing a dynamic TextField and a background. I exported it in a SWC(using this method) and I'm trying to use it from flex. When I try to change the default value of the text field the new value is not displayed(indeed the default value I put in flash is cleared on screen, but in the debugger it shows that the new value is set in the text field)
View 1 RepliesI am trying to use AsDoc on the code of one of my projects in flash. Some of the classes that I use inside the code are "exported for actionscript" classes from my FLA file. Of course the AsDoc compiler complains that those classes are not defined anywhere. Does anyone know how to make it ignore these class types?
View 1 RepliesI'm currently integrating one of my games with the SDK of a certain publisher (who shall remain nameless), but I'm having real problems. They require all games to load their content (ie. images, sounds etc) from an external SWF, like so:
Code:
private var __gameScreen:MovieClip;
private function onContentSwfLoaded(result:MediaLoaderResult):void
{
[code]....
The problem here is that I really don't want to have to use MovieClips as all of my games use nothing but BitmapData, so I'm wondering if there's a way of extracting a Bitmap or BitmapData from an SWF? It doesn't appear that Flash CS3 caters for this though - you can assign an "instance name" to a MovieClip, but not a Bitmap as far as I can tell. I usually develop in Flex Builder 3 but I've not managed to extract anything from an SWF exported from it, probably because you can't assign instance names to objects, I'm guessing. My current work-around for this problem is to draw each MovieClip to a BitmapData object, but this is very long-winded and probably not too efficient either.
I have designed a Flash animation for a client who has asked me to also provide it in a format which can be used in a film he wants to produce in Apple Final Cut Pro. I assumed the best format would be QuickTime but whenever I export the Flash file in to QuickTime the quality of the film is awful - the graphics leave fragments of themselves behind as they move (if that makes sense?!) and the overall quality isn't very crisp.

Is there any way to determine the list of class names of all these exported asserts from within the movie that loads them?
How can I preload a 'Flash Component' which is being exported to the first frame? Is removing linkages of the component to the first frame the only option?

Is it possible to create a flash file, which can be embedded into a website for on-demand viewing and be exported to a cd while maintaing interactivity, that is geared towards an online elearning environment? Basically a client wants a video that is broken down into various chapters with an interactive "course" for each chapter.The interacivity will included answering questions correctly in order to move on to the end of the chapter.
View 2 RepliesI have a symbol named picHolder. In symbol properties under linkage, I chose "Export for ActionScript" and "Export in frame 1" and gave it a class name of picHolder.Normally, to instantiate a new instance, I'd say:
Code:
var tempPic:picHolder = new picHolder();
and I'd go about my way.

View 1 RepliesI'm freaking a bit here. I've committed to building this branded, simple quiz for a client, and I've got the basic functionality running now in an un-designed shell UI. The app is just a landing state, a string of 15 questions built dynamically using a single state, and a result state. Minimal Actionscript controls these rather sparse three layouts, and my 'release' exported .swf file is 308 KBytes. That's a bigger .swf than this giant, giant scrapbook application I was just working on strictly in Actionscript. And I haven't even added the design assets (including animations) to the project yet! I'd hate to see what size this file will be once the graphics assets are added.
Is this simply a drawback of using Flex? Is there some way to slim down the library of classes that are exported into the .swf or something? The amount of code I've written in this thing is ridiculously small, so I'm now wondering if simply using the Flex framework adds this much dead weight to the .swf file?
Q1. I am new in flash CS4. I have tried to export an simple flash which just contains a square to .swc file using Publish and Export Movie, but there only has one .swf file exported. No .swc is found. I already selected the export to .swc file in Publish Settings, however the result is sameQ2. I have tried to export a .swc file on the Library Panel. It works.
