I've got a few .swf files with video tutorials I've created using Captivate 4.I wanted to link them so I've created a main screen with menu with buttons in Flash.I've added AS to load the external swf files but they load in the same window. How can I load these .swf files in seperate window so that you could get back to the main window after you've finished watching?[code]...
View 8 RepliesI'm trying to load a local SWF Application in my Air Application via the SWFLoader class. The SWFLoader class is displayed in a new Window. Therefore, i'm trying to resize the window automatically, when the Flash Application is resizing. But here's the problem. The SWFLoader does not get any events when the loader App has been resized.
The Problem seems to be the Sandbox Restrictions. I'm able to call methods in the childSandboxBridge and parentSandboxBridge Objects that i've set in the LoaderInfo of the SWFLoaders content (the loaded SWF Application). But i cannot listen to any ResizeEvents or something like that when i'm resizing the loaded App.
I want to load external .exe or .swf in new flash window.I do not want to open it in an internet window.I want to open an .exe and click on a button that will open another .exe or .swf.I want to keep both flash windows open.I want to have the new one on top of the first one and I want it full screen.I am using Flash CS4 Action Script 2.0.I am using this code for full screen of second .exe or .swf

I have a main flash movie that has 6 navigation buttons for 6 sections of the website. Each button loads an external swf to cutdown on preloader time for the whole website. Within each section, for example section1.swf, there are a number of images you can click through, with previous and back buttons. On each image in section1.swf is a button so that you can popup a window with more related info and images. So, in section1.swf on the first image image1_mc there is a button pop_btn, and I would like it to open a popup_mc which loads an external swf. Popup_mc would have a close_btn to close the window. I have tried various things for 2 weeks, and have had no luck. I can open a popup window, or I can load a swf, but I can't figure out how to put it all together.

View 15 RepliesI am trying to style the Alert window on an external file but I get the following warning and the style won't be applied, keep in mind that the Alert is being called from an external AS file as well so the code is not embedded in the MXML.
The CSS type selector 'Alert' was not processed, because the Alert was not used in the application.Type alert in CSS selector 'Alert' must be qualified with a namespace.
Alert{
color : #124332;
background-color: #ffffff;
header-colors : #243322, #243322;

I'm trying to write a tool in flash that lets you open and save to a xml file. Currently, I let user type in the xml url in a textfield and load it straight from that but that's un-intuitive. So I need a way to open the window/explorer that allows user to navigate to a file that he wants to save to or load from on the local hard drive just like all other software.
View 2 RepliesI have developed a full screen .exe flash file in actionscript 2. It controls physical lights (e.g. turn on and off) by simply calling a URL for each action. However, I don't want the called URL's to open in front of the interface. Is there a way to call a hidden URL in flash?

Structure: There is 1 main file that loads external SWF files depending on what is clicked on.One of the external SWF files loads its text from external text files. This works fine when viewing the SWF applet on its own. But when viewing as a whole site, the text doesnt appear. Very annoying.I made that particular SWF on my mums computer running Flash MX 2004The flash file itself uses the Scrollbar component from MX.Could someone tell me why the text doesnt load in this scenario? It runs fine on its own, just not as an external SWF.

i'm building a website using flash. i have a external swf file that i want to import into my website. i thought this would be an easy task but for some reason when i load the movie, it flickers. my website (parent swf) was build using 1.0. The external form swf was build using 3.0. My approach:
1.create an empty movie clip called mcForm
2.go to the mc clip page i want to pull the external movie into
3. within my actions layer, I call the following function loadMovie("main.swf", mcForm);
If i write:
LoadMovieNum("main.swf",0);
then the my main.swf opens correctly but closes the parent swf file. I wan the main.swf file to be embeded within the parent file.
I'm trying to load an external swf file into another with a loading that shows exactly the progression of the download. I tried to look at the loadClip and MovieClipLoader commands but I'm a newbie in AS, I don't really understand.
