I am working on this one project that has a couple of movieclips (already placed on stage) which have a custom class set to export via the Library. Each of those custom classes loads an external SWF using URLRequest().
Is it possible (or, what is the best way) to preload the whole project first, including the external SWFs?
I cant "center" my project, like you can see its "fixed" (yellow lines) in the left side and I cant see "invisible" part of project... (area around the project). how can I move my project so I can see the not-project area around the project. (picture 2).
At the moment situation... (cant see that area around the project)

I have a Flex project in which I am embedding a Flash SWF containing an image viewer. The SWF file I'm embedding is supplemented by an XML file, which contains a list of images to show, and an images folder containing the images. The problem I'm running into is that the embedded SWF file is unable to load the pictures. I am able to see the forward/backward navigation buttons, but there are no loaded images. When I view the SWF file outside of the Flex project it works fine. Is this because Flex isn't allowing the SWF to reach outside and access other project assets?
Here's my code for embedding the SWF:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Image;
import mx.events.CloseEvent;
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
[Code] .....
I am using flex sdk 4.5.1 and flash develop to compile my AS3 project. I have small images, about 12KB which is silly to load them using Loader class, so embeding is better solution.
However when this line at the top of my Main class is uncomented i get blank swf[URL]..(when i comment it out, the compilated swf is ok)
What could be the error. Why do I get the blank swf?
I'm creating a project in flex builder but it's not using the flex framework, it's just pure actionscript.
At the moment I have some bitmap resources embedded for drawing things, but I'd like a little animation and thought I could create swf animations for them in flash and use the [Embed()] thing to embed them in the actionscript project.
This works perfectly well for me, however I'm a little concerned about efficiency and how well this approach will scale when my project gets larger.
Does anyone know if there are any efficiency implications to embedding maybe 20 or 30 swf files, or do they get efficiently integrated into the main swf file? Most of the animations are really simple and I could probably redo them in actionscript if needed but it's a lot easier just to draw them in flash and embed them.
I created some button states in flash (swc), and I want to use them in a pure AS3 project. They are movie clips with class of neatButton_on and neatButton_off respectively. I call them like this:[code]I've also used assets, especially for different states of the same item, where I've put everything in one movie clip and then switched frames as needed. Is one way faster than the other? is there a best practice?
View 2 RepliesI have created a small website using Flash CS4/AS3. Each of the pages is a seperate swf which i am loading into a container swf file when a button is clicked.
However when i test the site, it gets progressively slower every time another page is loaded in.
All my buttons are located in the external swf files and call the 'page load functions' in my container swf
Here is the code from my container swf where all the swfs are loaded into[code]...

I'm working on this flash project which loads an external image via XML, the problem is the image resolution is a whooping 11472x6000! I think flash wont allow you to render greater than 4000px(correct me if I'm wrong), Is there any solution for this?
View 7 RepliesI've been working on this project, and I've been using external swf's to navigate thru my project. I started working on it, and everything was good, but I noticed that when I was navigating around the project, it was starting to get really slow with the animations.
The way that I had it set up was this:
I had a file called "home.swf" that held a movie clip called "container", and then i would load everything thru that.
Then I put that same "container" movie clip on my other swf's, and scripted it out so that other swf's could load thru the "container" MC on those pages.
That is what I was doing, and I was thinking that was good, but it's making my animations run slow. I was scripting everything out like this for the navigation on the buttons:
on (press) {
container.unloadMovie("promotions.swf");
} on (release) {
container.loadMovie("apparel.swf");
}
My question is do I need to not have the "contianer" MC on each one of my swf pages? Here what I have done so far: [URL]. Not all of the pages work just yet (I'm still working on it), but if you click thru the pages "print", "apparel", "promotions", all the ones that are on the top of the white center area, you can see what I'm talking about.
My problem seems fairly simple, however, due to my limited experience with Flash I'm having some difficulty with it. Anyway, here is my problem: i'm trying to use a Photo Gallery written in Flash. The source files for it could be found in the link below:

it's just so strange that merely calling the .swf from the same directory in a different Flash project is totally making this application, useless. As I mentioned earlier, I'm a beginner or less, at Flash, so please bear with me if my problem seems dumb. Nevertheless, my deepest gratitude for anyone that can help me out with this problem.
