I'm going to publish my flash intro for our website but can I just publish it without using Dreamweaver? I want to make my flash intro always centered vertically and horizontally according to the browser's size. I also want it to have a plain black background and not showing the edges of my flash.
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip that I imported into flash, used a skin and have a nice little player for this website intro. I want to proceed to the sites home page upon completion of the movie. Searched but the best I could come up with was;
player.addEventListener("complete",function (event:Object) { trace("doneVideo");new URLRequest("my link");});
If I have an FLV that I've output as SWF with skin to have embedded into an HTML page, and now a 'skip intro' is needed - though I'd have to make note of the actual time or keyframe in which the intro completes...How is this possible? Clearly, a button would need to be added for that kind of interactivity?
View 3 RepliesI have this world map (.swf file) that I want on my home page(black background). It's up and working fine, but it flashes a white blank map for about 2 seconds when it first loads and then it goes away. It looks very ugly on a black background and gives off a sense of "cheapness". Anyway, it has got to go. I purchased the world map and they don't offer access to the original .fla file. So basically I want to know how to cover up the first few seconds of the video with black and then have the black cover disappear and let the flash file do its thing.

View 1 Replieskinda having some trouble with flash movie I created. It keeps wanting to loop and play over and over. I just want it to play once in my html page and then after the first play, change into another html (iframe). Any ideas? I'm using dreamweaver and adobe flash.URL...

View 3 RepliesI've created a flash intro for a website and I have it setup so that in the first frame of the intro it opens a popup window, and then in the last frame it opens the actual site in the same window as the intro. Right now when it hits the last frame it opens up the popup window again also! Ack! The code I've used for opening the popup window is:var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("player.html"); navigateToURL(url, "_blank");
the code used in the last frame to move to the site is:var urlReq:URLRequest=new URLRequest('index2.html');navigateToURL(urlReq,'_self');
I'm guessing that it has something to do with re-using the same variable name. I tried changing the code in different ways on the second window opening but still had the same result, or broke it opening up any pages at all. I've also tried moving the two code snippets to different layers. I'm thinking there might be a few ways around this too such as if there is a way to trigger the popup window, and then have the intro wait x seconds and then opens the main site or something, but I have no clue how to go about doing any of this. have the site in question in a temp location currently and it can be viewed here: [Url]
Anybody can tell me how to do this? after the intro in flashcs4 go directly to a website. I made an intro in flash and after the end of the clip need go to a html doc. I've to use ActionScript right?

View 3 RepliesI was asked to edit a completed website. I was given the .swf file. I decompiled it using SoThink and converted it to a flash file. When I opened it in Adobe Flash CS4, only the intro portion is viewable in the timeline.
When I test the movie the entire website plays out with no problems. But the timeline only shows the intro/home page. I need to edit other content in the scene.
I just recorded some song and cut it into two parts. The first part contains an intro and the second is supposed to loop. What I want to do now, is to have a simple graphical animation (5 keyframes or so) that loops as well, while the music plays along.
View 1 Repliesi have imported a movie that i created in After Effects and exported as an FLV. I imported this into flash as an embedded FLV file. When i go to the last frame and enter the scipt.......
stop();
getURL("http://www.randolphmusic.net/main.html", "_self");
it tries to go to the url before i play the movie.
If i try to make a keyframe there i get a message and it cuts the end of the video at the point and starts it over a second clip in that same timeline. I have tried creating a tween from it then putting in the script, i have also tried this with a classic tween.
I am trying to do something I thought would be very simple. It has turned into a much more difficult exercise. I simply want to use this flash movie at Code:[URL] as an index page of site. When the movie has ran, I want to pause for 3 or 4 seconds and then go to the next page of web site (in other words, go to a specific URL).
View 2 RepliesI have a corporate flash-file which is pretty advanced, much more so than I could have developed myself. The company want this flash to have an intro screen before the actual content starts with a button choosing what of two parts to load. [code]I've tried with adding a frame before the actual content, adding an extra scene and loading the swf from another one. Nothing have worked so far and I am running out of ideas. The .fla-file only really consists of a background, some shadows since the actionscripts, images and other resources are external.

View 1 RepliesCS3 on a 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo Mac running OS X 10.5.8.I have been able to create my webpages and upload them to the host. They are viewable, linkable etc. Everything is working, but now I want to include some flash elements.I built a flash file in action script 3.0 and saved it in the files folder of Dreamweaver, I dragged and dropped the swf file into the design screen and saved it. I have uploaded the html file, the swf and fla files and the created js file to the host server, but the flash element does not appear on the page when I view it in the browser.
View 4 RepliesYes, I am currently running into an issue concerning publishing settings with Flash Professional CS4. I know how to make things animated in the publish setting, but things come out like the saturation is not all there in a project. I have no clue what to choose for the options to achieve the desired effect I want. It just looks drained of color. When I import items to the stage everything looks so clear and perfect, but when I go to publish it as a .gif animated it looks so bland. I'm sure Flash users are familiar to the settings provided for the .gif tab, if not I can give a list of everything thats there. I have included a screenshot of what my dialog box looks like as well.

I am having sever problems with publishing gifs in flash. All text turns into great big blobs. This has not allways been happening, it just started one day...I have tried reinstalling but the problem is still there...Heres something I made to show...I put a white background, and 30pt arial text saying "Test" in roughly the middle...it came out like this:
View 4 RepliesI have an FLA that has 20 scenes in it. When I publish it, the resulting SWF plays fine up to scene 16. At that point, I get the streaming audio, but the animation just stops. The scenes after 16 are empty.
This is a simple, voice narrated movie that is linear. The buttons at the bottom are AS2 pause/play/nextscene/prevscene. It works fine till I get to scene 16 and that's where it seems like it's just incomplete.
I noticed when it's publishing that the progress bar seems to get a bit over halfway and then the publishing dialog just disappears as if it's finished. It doesn't move the progress bar all the way to 100%.
If I do a test scene each one of those scenes publishes fine and plays fine inside Flash CS5.5. This only happens when I publish the whole thing. If I copy the timeline of scene 16 and paste it into a new movie, that single scene also publishes and plays fine. Again, it's only when it is publishing all 20 scenes.
I have a SWF file which contains of an image (1keyframe) and also, it contains an AS3 file with the following codes:
var loader:Loader=new Loader();
var ur:URLRequest=new URLRequest("1.swf");
loader.load(ur);
addChild(loader);
so basically, i am trying to play the swf file (1.swf - an audio) while the image is being displayed. What I want to know is how will I be able to publish this project into an SWF file which can still play as expected even without the raw 1.swf file. I can publish SWF right now but when I delete the 1.swf file, my generated swf can only display the image.
Installed Flash CS3 for the first month and everything was working ok. But mayhem kicks in the last couple of days when i tried to publish my document. it just keep crashing. i tried creating a new document with just one line of text and it still crash upon publishing. I uninstall the program, run winCS3Clean and install the program, THRICE, but the problem just wouldnt go away. this is very frustrating.
View 14 RepliesI have just completed a project and upon publishing it found the swf file to be bloated. I looked at the report found 411K to be Action Script and 10k to be EVERYTHING else! The key is that I did no coding at all. I used the standard motion tweens, but the project is very, very simple. I have one moving graphic and about 10 pieces of text fading/zooming in/out.
View 1 RepliesI am new to flash and trying to make a simple flash website video intro in Flash CS5 Pro.I have a flv viedo on the stage, under an image with a trasnparent center.I have the video on the bottom layer, the overlay image on the middle layer, and the top layer is my AS layer (AS3).
The video is currently autoplaying when i export.All i want is for it to open my website in the same window as the intro played when the video ends.I dont need a "skip intro button" or anything.I just want it to play the intro when you go to my site, and then bring up the index page of my site after it plays.
The File This is the file I have troubles with:
Code: [URL] What do I want to do? I downloaded a pre-made flash intro, and all I have to do is change the text of it, but I can't find out how!
When I ctrl+enter my movie, I see as first sentence in my flash intro "Creative Expression". I want to change that to another word.
When I go to my library, I find a lot of "sprites", and one of them has different layers in a timeline. Including the text layer I guess, because when I hide this layer, the text does not show up anymore in edit-mode. When I watch in edit-mode all the text in this layer, all the text are words "Text".
BUT when I ctrl+enter, I see other words, like "Creative Expression" as text.
In the library I can also see "sprites" in the library with as content the looks of the text "Creative Expression". But instead of "Creative Expression, the word in the "sprite" is just "Text".
So what did I do: I changed the word "Text" to my word and ctrl+enter'ed but I still see "Creative Expression". BUT in edit-mode I see the correct text (my text)
When I save, and export, I still see the words "Creative Expression", eventhough I changed it to my word.
I'm sorry if this is the oldest flash question in the book, but I created an intro in AS3 and I don't know how to get the movie to automatically go to home page after it plays through. I added a skip button and have that part working, but I don't get the other part.
View 1 RepliesI have worked with flash templates and altered a lot of them using Flash cs3. I need to now create something from scratch. What i want to do is the following. I want a picture of a forearm getting tattooed. The process will be the arm fading in and then the tattoo machine will start tattooing and when it is complete it will say the name of the tattoo shop on it. Once it is done you can click to enter the site It sounds simple to me in my head but I do not know where to begin.
