ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Slide-show Into Working Document Class Without Error 1009?
Feb 11, 2010
I'm trying to make a slide-show that adjusts to the width or height of the stage, and eventually, of the web browser window. I was able to load and resize a picture by writing code on the timeline, but I got the Error #1009 (Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference) when I put this slide show into another movie clip loader (which chooses between different swf pages of the website, with the purpose of keeping the swf file sizes down). By the way, my "slide-show" loads the picture fine. When I use the movie clip loader to load this "slide-show" it works too. Only when I use the Flash Player to open it, it gives me the Error 1009. I looked around on actionscript.org, and everyone seems to be recommending the folowing code (or something like it):[code]
I also ran into some information about document classes and I figure maybe I should be using document classes to make this stuff more modular and reusable. So I put my slide-show code into an .as file, importing all the flash.xxx.* classes, and put it in a package and class and constructor function... in the same directory as my swf file, and set it as the document class to a blank fla file. Then I tested it and all I got was a blank swf. This is without the Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE code. I guess I don't know how to get the document class thingy working either. So my question is, can someone tell me how I can change my slide-show code into a working document class without the Error 1009?r?[code]

Well the shiny new app is now 830K and needs to be preloaded. Simple eh? I've got a preloader that works nicely but I've been trying all day to find a reasonable way to load a swf that was compiled as a document class. My solution was to make a bare bones swf that would preload my main app swf:

I built a slideshow system a while back and have revisited the code. At the time I was getting an error so I just wrapped the function that was failing in a try and using brute force made it run the same function again and all worked but isn't very elegant. I click the next slide button in quick succession I get a #1009 error. Its as though the afterslideload function is firing even though there is properly loaded yet.This is actually a plug-in that hooks onto the back of the JW player. It picks up its xml from the players main playlist. So every item on the playlist has its on slideshow xml that contains all the info that the plugin uses to work. Every time the 'itemhandler' (clicking on an item on the playlist) is fired the xml is given to the plugin.The error is:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I'm having problems with a simple flash site that contains a scrolling slide show, that uses a .xml file.I was sent a .fla file that I couldn't open with MX 2004 ... I asked them to save it as a MX 2004 file. They sent it back, and I was able to open it.The problem is ... when I save it as a .swf the slide show doesn't work.The .swf & .xml files are on the same level in the directory, and the .swf path to the .xml file is correct, also the .xml to the image folder path is correct.I have spent hours going through this, and can't get it to work.I have added images to the .xml file, and they show up (I am using the original .swf) so the .xml file is OK, and again the path from .xml to the images folder is correct. This is the working .swf file (click on the portfolio link )Now ... imagine no images there, and that's what I'm getting when I save the .fla as a .swf.Other changes I make to the .fla are working properly ... just the slideshow is the problem.Did something happen when the .fla was saved as a MX 2004 that caused the .xml part to stop working?IM not a whiz at actionscript, but I have gone over it several times, and can't see anything that looks out of place.

I really hate when you read a tutorial from some "expert" and what it tells you to do is wrong. I was doing a tutorial for a XML slide show, and the last line of code doesn't work quite right:

For some reason that only sends the my_playback_counter to 1. And it just sits there twitching. So when I tried to change the tutorial code to:

I'm developing a new website one with a dynamic slideshow which can be found here. [URL] The problem is, after weeks of it working it all of a sudden now has issues loading the xml data into the swf. The swf loads but nothing displays in it, this worked and I changed nothing but updated the graphics which would display in it. If you hit refresh an untold number of times eventually it loads. To me this sounds like a server issue, but I'm not sure.
I've tried updating my flash player, updated the swfobject.js to the latest one I could find. I've made all my .js local on the server instead of calling externally to a source. I'm not sure what the problem might be. I've attached a working and not working example graphic to this post. I've tested this out on 7 different PC's both of which running either Windows 7 or Windows XP. Out of 7, 4 of them load the slideshow properly each and every time. 3 of them however loads it, but will randomly get the issue where it doesn't load properly.

I have an image slide show that was created in Flash CS3 with a fade transition. I want to slow down the slide show so the pictures display longer. Is there an easier way to change the speed of the slide show other than dragging each frame on the time line?I dragged each frame 20 frames longer and it's not working for me. It seems as though some images display much longer than other.

how to change the background colour of a flash slide-show. I am trying to post a slide-show on a website, but some of the pictures do not fit the box well and, as a result, there are black bars surround them. Is there a way that I can change the background colour so that it blends with the background colour of the website?

When I changed hosting from the companies hosting to my own personal GoDaddy hosting everything went right, except for 2 flash slide shows (Simple rotating images). They just apear as clear boxes now. You can see what I am talking about here: [URL] and here [URL] . You will notice the empty large empty box on the right in both pages. When you right click on it the browser recognizes that it is flash. On the Piza site I tried taking out the original code and entering the flash object via Dreamweaver CS5, but that yeilded the same results (I only mention this because the code on that site will thus look a bit different).

I am new to Flash and am working on a banner slider where there are 5 different images (slides) that come onto the scene about 8 seconds apart. Each slide I am trying to link to a web page but am getting the error; TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at NLE_fla::MainTimeline/frame1() I'm sure it has to do with the link on the second slide not being found since the slide doesn't load right away. Am I supposed to be loading some variables first or something? Here's my code;

I have this script where the error #1009 appears continually, the stange thing: my script is working correctly and I want to get rib off this error. When my script is "correct", meaning, no more errors appear, the script doesn't work with the external swf. The error target the red "movie01" in the script but this reference was used already with success, why not this one? This script is working but with the error #1009:
var movie02:Loader = new Loader();
movie02.load(new URLRequest("test/seq.swf"));

Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
This is the error I cannot seem to understand. On the stage I have a movie clip, mcTree. It's keyframe is in frame 3143. There is no tween or anything. In frame 3144, I have the following actionscript:
mcTree.gotoAndStop(2);
I publish the movie and I get to frame 3144 then BAM TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at 2file_fla::MainTimeline/frame3144()
As you can tell, I'm more than 3000 frames into my animation here and have made it this far using this method, and it has worked.

I'm trying to learn OOP in AS3 and I'm hitting some roadblocks early on with a practice site I started. My fla file is in the com folder and my document class/AS is in the mywebsite folder (structured like this: com/mywebsite). I imported the images and sound and used linkage to assign their class names. My code isn't showing me any errors, but nothing is working... no sound, images, not even the trace statement in the output.
Code: Select allpackage com.mywebsite
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
[code]....
Besides not knowing why it isn't working as expected, Still learning and all I'm unsure about my placement of variables and addChild methods in relation to my functions.

I am attempting to use a simple preloader that I've used many times in the past but am now receiving an error. The difference this time is that I've created a Class as opposed to just placing all of my code in the the time line. I've placed the following code in the timeline of my preloader movie and am attempting to load the SWF of my main movie, which uses an external class for all of its code.
ActionScript Code:
Code: Select allfunction loop(e:ProgressEvent):void
{
var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal;

When I publish the file, I get the error:

In my asp.net application,I want to show the .ppt file using the slide show manner.
That's to say,user can upload .ppt file to my server side,then other people can browser these ppts in the page ..
Since I have googled "embed powerpoint in web page" ,it seems that there is not a good idea to implement this and support the cross browser,so I thought the flash.
This is a slide show using the flash: [URL]
What I want is show the contents of the .ppt in this manner(it would be better if it support the animations in the ppt)?

I have a symbol of text with instance name "test_" on the main timeline and some graphics that are loaded programmatically. When the graphics are loaded onto the stage, it covers up the "test_" so that only part of it is visible. How do I change the depth of the "test_" symbol so that it is on top of all the graphics on the stage?
I tried this setChildIndex(test_,numChildren-1); however numChildren is equal to one so apparently it is already on top of its container. I need "test_" to be above all graphics that were loaded onto the stage instead.

I am new to actionscript and just like some of you, I would like to start off on the right foot. After several attempts to solve this problem I am now taking a break and reaching out to those in the community. I have created a .as file named Main.as and the code inside main.as is:[code]then i created a new fla file and named it testas. I then typed Main in the Document class under properties.The code has no errors and when I attempt to test the movie, there is no output to the output panel.

I have two Flash projects, an Intro (1 scene) and a Portfolio (5 scenes).I copied all layers from the Intro and created a new scene in the Portfolio file,and pasted the layers. All of my buttons work except for the button that brings me from the end of the Intro, into Portfolio.weirdly enough, this the same button that I use throughout the portfolio to bring me to the "Home" scene.When I remove this button, the error message goes away. Below is the action, and below the action is the error message.
BtnHome_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick18);function onClick18 (event:MouseEvent)
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Portfolio_Final_fla::MainTimeline/frame28()

Code: Select allvar loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("x.swf"))

And x.swf has this code (very simplified): Code: Select alltrace(stage.stageWidth); When I run preloader, I get this error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at x_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

in Flash CS3 I've this DocumentClass:
package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class DocumentClass extends MovieClip {
public function DocumentClass() { trace("document class created"); } }}
This actually works, but I want to have the possibility to re-instance the DocumentClass (because I want to restart a game and the Main class is the DocumentClass).In the first frame I have:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, restart);function restart(evt:MouseEvent){ var d = new DocumentClass();}
But this code (I simplified my situation, but the result is the same) throws an error:
Error: Error #2136: The SWF file file:///E|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Pepper/My%20Documents/FlashDeve lopment/PepperGame.swf contains invalid data at DocumentClass/restart()/frame1()
What can I do to restart my game by calling the DocumentClass point of entry? Is this possibile?
