View 0 RepliesI have a single texfield. I want to set the default format of that textfield to a certain value and alignment. Then, draw the text onto a bitmapdata. Then, I want to change the default format of THAT single textfield to a new format, change the alignment, and change the text contained in it. Then draw it at a new location.I want to do the above many times to use the same textfield to draw in multiple locations in multiple styles.

I have an issue concearning existing file formats for export in Flash CS4. According to the user's manual in Italian I have found, [URL] available formts include EPS and AI. As far as AI is concerned, I have this option but exported AI files are hard to open in Illustrator, since a number of problems appear. If I separate all groups in Flash and then export to AI format, Illustrator finally opens the AI file, but changing the colours and the shape of my design.
Moreover, no dialogue box for Illustrator version options appear when I choose AI for export, as is described in the support page. As to EPS file format, it is not in the export file dialogue box, the formats I have are JPG, PNG, GIF, EMF, WMF, BMP. My point is that I draw in Flash, then I need to export the designs in Illustrator for print optimization, but the content changes dramatically, if I actually can open the files.

Why not have the Adobe Flash CS5 product directly generate mp4 and other formats in addition to SWF?From my chair (as an Adobe Flash CS5 user) it
-Going about using other additional software has direct effect on a software budget.
-Costs extra manhours to gather information of how it is done.
-Costs extra manhours/user time to process.
-Perhaps even increases the likelihood for errors and noise in re-processing already processed files (SWF->{F4V,MOV,MP4}) (F4V->{MP4,MOV},)relative to the original source FLA file?
Is flash supporting any lossless audio formats?
View 1 RepliesI'm creating a movie player on a website of mine.. similar to YouTube. I would like people to be able to upload their movies on to my site. So my question(s) are regarding the FLV Format and if you can play other formats some how like Movs, Avis, Wmvs and Mpegs?
(1) Flash can only play FLV files? Can you get it to play Movs, Avis, Mpegs... Can I some how put in codecs for them?
(2) Can people easily get their movies to FLV format? Is this an issue for people?
I don't want to make it complicated for them to put things on my site. I would like them to be able to upload movies with ease and obviously not make things too complicated for them. I want to make it as user friendly as possible.
I'm loading external logo into my SWF with following code: var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("logo.swf");var logoloader:Loader = new Loader();logoloader.load(request);addChild(logoloader);logoloader.x = 5;logoloader.y = 5; Everything works fine as long as I have logo.swf in right place. Is there an easy way to improve that code so that it wouldn't matter if there is logo.swf, logo.png or logo.jpg as long as one of those files exists in right place? I just would like to give my clients change to use other formats than SWF if they like, because some of them doesn't have flash or any other software with SWF exporting capability. all of them have Photoshop or some other Image software....

View 3 RepliesI got two questions in my mind. The first one is which is a better format for importing a movie? Should I use QUICKTIME or other formats?
Now the second one is a little bit confusing. Let's say I have successfully imported any movie to my FLA file, I was wondering if their is a way to PRELOAD half of the entire movie before actually playing it, that way, audience won't wait for a very long time if needed.
I've been pondering the various ways in which video's can be used in flash, and how to use these methods to produce on different formats.The company I work for, creates multimedia presentations on CD. These are designed primarily in flash, the presentation houses a video that plays from start to finish, coinciding with slides that appear 'on cue' with the various slides. the presentation controls also offer the user the ability to skip through the presentation.Now we upload these presentations to our testing site so the speaker in question can see and check the presentation, giving feedback on changes to slide order or skip positions and so on... After the go-ahead the presentation is then burned to CD and mass produced from here url...
1. When uploading these presentations to the net, when the user starts playing the video, but wants to skip onto a later question, say 'question 10'... there is a delay in which the video stops and then plays several seconds later (often MANY seconds later) I did some looking into this, am I right in thinking that using 'FlashServer technology' will solve this problem? I am presuming the timeline cannot skip directly to this part of the video and begin buffering from here on a standard FLV?
2. When burned to a CD, there is still a 'pause' when skipping to different parts of the video (using FLV), although the delay is not as long as that of the online version, it still presents itself as a problem in my own eyes, when skipping from 'question 1' to 'question 9' were still waiting several seconds for the buffer to catch up... Is there a work around for this to make the skips more instantaneous? like like a dvd/cd skip? Perhaps and embedded video setup?
Is it possible to ease video playback, so thats not directly stopped but slowly stops playing.
or image sequence thats also an option
I was wondering: how to make a dynamic text box a little more customizable.what i mean: how do i start new paragraphs.. i've set it to multiline, but it just goes onto next line at end of current one which is fine
if i press enter, and go to new line in the actionscript, it creates an error, as the on function isn't finished...also, how to set the box to justify ALL test inside it.. even though i've selected the justify tab on the properties of the box, it doesn't do it properly ....
i would just like to ask why is the case that when i use embedfonts = true on a textfield, the textfield's text only resizes according to the textfield's height but not the textfield's width. meaning if i make the textfield's height bigger, the text also gets bigger in terms of height, but not width, can't the embedded font maintain aspect ratio according to the textfield height?
I'm only wondering about this because this is not the case when embedfonts= false

View 1 RepliesI have a date field in flex and have the format set to YYYY-MM-DD. As long as the user clicks the calendar pop-up it set's it that way. However, I need to allow the field to be human enter-able so they can type in a date.The problem is, most users want to type the format MM/DD/YYYY. I have a tool tip that shows the format, but how can I check the format and change it to the YYYY-MM-DD format, or do something else appropriate (alert?)?

I am trying to bring in multiple RSS feed nodes into one Dynamic Text field in Flash CS3 using AS3. I have made vars for my headline node and my description text node and I am able to have them both display in the same dynamic text field by formatting them with HTML tags. My problem is changing the text size and color for the description node var. Is this possible in the same Text field. Can the default text format be overidden by code?
Here is what I have so far....
ActionScript Code:
//This code loads and Parses the RSS feed
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
[Code].....
I tried adding size = '8' in the <p> tag but it did not override the default size in the Dynamic Text Field (dtfa) properties.
I have a little issue im trying to resolve. Basically i want to inherit the embedded text format properties from one text field which i have off the stage (empty) to another text field i have on stage. Ive came across the function of getTextFormat(), however when i try to apply this to the other text field it doesnt work:
ActionScript Code:
onStageTextField.getTextFormat(offStageTextField);
Ive embedded italics into my test field which is off stage. I guess im doing this completely wrong?! I know i could simply create a new TextFormat() then apply that to the text field but is there a way of inheriting the format properties of one tex tfield to another on stage?
how I can make one String, displayed in a TextField, have different text formats?
