ActionScript 3.0 :: Convert All The Imported Keyframes To Graphic Or Movieclip ?
Oct 15, 2008
I imported a swf created in After Effects to Flash CS3 to make it interactive. Flash broke the "swf" movie into a number of keyframes (apprx 65 keyframes) which when previewed, plays all the keyframes one by one. I want it to stop at first keyframe and have a button over there, which when clicked will let the next 30 keyframes run without stopping. Then stop at the 30th keyframe which will have another button to be clicked to proceed to the the next 34 keyframes without stop. I have been trying the stop(), and gotoAndPlay nextFrame, but it stops at the next frame. One more thing, do I need to convert all the imported keyframes to graphic or movieclip ?

i have an embedded video which is about 500 frames.
I simply want to convert those to keyframes to edit it and use some in reverse.
I could swear that one time this worked - but when i select the video and hit 'convert to keyframes' - all the new frames are simply the first frame of the video.

When I have a symbol with multiple symbols inside, it's very slow to convert frames to keyframes or to move the keyframes in its timeline. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I have an animated item on the main stage that was imported as a swf but it needed to be edited to fit the stage. I successfully edited each frame and the whole movie is running exactly as I'd pictured it. However, I was reading somewhere that to optimize the movie, keyframes and bitmaps and graphics take up more space and that it would be better to convert an animation to a movie clip. I had to edit each frame of my swf, so right now it's in 15 different key frames When I imported them, Flash turned each frame into a bitmap and then when I edited them for size they became graphics attached to those bitmaps, each as its own keyframe.

I have a problem when trying to import any graphic file, even a .psd file, in flash pro. The problem is that when imported, the graphic gets pixelated and the edges of of the graphic does not look smooth (not curves but pixelated lines). Interestingly the problem only occurs when I test the movie, but while editing it the graphic looks fine. I am using windows and have flash and photoshop cs5. How can I transfer my graphic from photoshop to flash without the pixelation of the curved lines?

I'm loading a graphic via the Loader Class. Now I need to use it both as the original image and a thumbnail of that image. Alas, there is no "duplicateMovieClip" or anything like that in AS3
If I addChild it to the normal view and then to the thumbnail only the thumbnail is shown and vice versa.
I google for this and found several solutions online, but they all just seem to work with Images from the library and not loaded from a Server.
So, how do I do this without having to load the Image twice?

I have spent all evening trying to get actionscript 3.0 to work in flash and I'm obviously getting the fundamentals completely wrong as when I export I'll get errors all the time.I am trying to create some animation using actionscript instead of the timeline, I would resort to using AS2 which I am familiar with, but for employability's sake I want to get to grips with AS3.So I'll start with my very first problem. How on earth do I get an imported graphic to rotate indefinitely? I mean just start and keep going until i close the window without any prompt from the user.Please be thorough in your explanation as every single tut I've looked at doesn't work for me. Start with what layers need to be created, what labels should be added, instance names etc in order so I can follow it step by stepI will be making this more advanced as I go along, with easing applied to the rotation by using a button.However this is a hurdle in itself as EVERY single button tutorial I've come across just uses the button symbol instead of a Movie Clip with Actions/Behaviours which is what I want to use for more versatility.My Flash Site is looking a long way off right now, I never thought AS3 would be this difficult to use in comparison to AS2.

Is there seriously no way to convert a vector graphic into a motion guide for Flash? Are the Pen and Pencil tools really the only way to define the path for a motion tween? I have CS3 (Flash, Illustrator, PhotoShop). I just got the trial version of CS5. I have a subscription to[url]... I have searched these forums and the internet in general for hours.
All I want to do is move a symbol around in a circle, but my pen/pencil skills are not sufficient to create a circle. Editing the CS5 motion path has proved exceedingly tedious and not round. There's a perfectly good circle tool in all four applications...

I have set up my project file in such a way that I have an FLV loader and a movie clip with six key frames (for my menu) on the stage. On each of the key frames I have six buttons. The way the site is supposed to work is that when you click on a different button you jump to a different key frame where an flv movie begins to play and an external swf file is loaded. I've made some progress with the coding, but the darn thing still doesn't work.
I have pasted my AS3 code below.
var mySection="company"
var mySection="services"
var mySection="films"
var mySection="news"
var mySection="donate"

I have a movieclip that has a keyframe at every frame, and I'd like my code to be able to draw to the individual keyframes within that clip. I'm generating images for animation, but the code takes a few seconds per image, so the animation can't simply be generated on the fly. I want the code to draw all of the images into the movieclip and then play the animation as a loop once that's done. It seems like this would be a pretty straighforward method, but I can't get it to work. It seems that when I draw into the movieClip, it ignores the fact that I have keyframes there. Whatever I draw appears at every frame as if it's drawn onto a different layer that just has the default keyframe at frame 1. To test, I manually put drawings into the keyframes, and they loop back as expected. The only problem seems to be that the animation images generated by actionScript appear all on top of each other and held for the entire movieClip loop. The following is code that I had hoped would draw into frame 2 of the movieClip. I assume that this is naive:
clipInstance.gotoAndStop(2);
clipInstance.lineStyle(1, 0x000000);
clipInstance.beginFill(0xFFFF00);

2) fade in the image i have in keyframe(2), if i use i use bg.gotoAndStop(2) the image is replaced istantly

I have an swf file on the homepage that is the intro followed a menu. When the user types the URL for the home page from an outside site, I need the entire flash file to play from frame 1, but if you have already seen it and then clicked around to subpages within the site and then want to go back to the home page , I want the movieclip to start from a specified keyframe.

I've written a simple MovieClip replacement that converts an existing imported MovieClip to a sequence of BitmapData. This removes the requirement for Flash to render vector data in the MovieClip on each frame.
But BitmapData has a huge memory footprint. I've tried converting the BitmapData to a ByteArray and using the compress() method. This results in a significantly smaller memory footprint. But it has proven impractical. For each redraw, I tried uncompressing()'ing the ByteArray, then using SetPixels to blit the data to the screen, then re-compressing() the frame. This works but is terribly slow.
So I was wondering if anybody else has an approach I could try. In Flash, is it possible to compress bitmap data in memory and quickly blit it to the screen?
I wonder how native animated GIFs work in Flash. Does it uncompress them to BitmapData behind the scenes, or is frame decompression done on the fly?

I am building an RPG type game in flash and have hit upon my first problem.I have created a character out of various different body parts (upper arm, lower arm, hand, head, etc..) I would like to make it possible to change the look of each of these body parts (different types of armor / clothing) whilst maintaining the whole body animations.I'm becoming confused about how many things are inside each other! Rather than recreate a whole new set of animations for every conceivable combination of armor and clothing it should be possible to simply change one of the graphics within the movieclip that is the character.
So the structure I have thought of is like this:Whole body > Changeable graphic > Base Body Part (bare arm for instance)What is a sensible way to go about doing this? I'd like to have a solution that is easily scalable and won't require notably more work if there are 10 different types of changeable graphic or 1000.I think that I need use the event that triggers the armor / clothing to change for that body part, to run a script that either somehow changes which graphic it is displaying, possibly inside the Base Body Part movieclip.

I'm trying to add a bitmap to a movie clip in code. However, I'm having trouble getting the bitmap location to go where I want it because it's inside the movieclip and it just shows up at 0,0 of the movieclip instead of the coordinates I want it to be: Here's some of code so you can see what I mean:
imageBitmapData3 = new Lander(63, 53);
_player = new Bitmap(imageBitmapData3);
_gameLevel.addChild(_player);_player.x = 145;_player.y = 90;
-Instead of showing up at 145, 90 It just shows up at the movieclip, _gamelevel, 0,0.
how I could get it to do what I want it to do? I want to add it inside the mc because I need everything to move with the _gameLevel background when I move it.

is there any way to add an overlay image dynamically over a MovieClip? Sort of like a watermark... except that I'm not trying to make a watermark.Let me explain: I'm trying to program a gallery of videos that will be loaded dynamically through XML. Each video will come with a JPG of the same size, which will be the poster frame for said video (and will also be loaded via XML). The user will see a scrollable horizontal strip of "videos" (actually the pictures), and when he clicks on one of them, the poster frame will disappear (_visible=false) and the FLV player underneath will start playing the chosen video.
So far so good. I load the pictures via XML and put each of them in a MovieClip. I distribute the MovieClips in an horizontal strip. I add to each of them an event handler so that they start playing the video when pressed. The only thing that I don't know how to do is: how do I add to each of the MovieClips a semitransparent "Play" button? They are generated dynamically, and I don't know how many of them (i.e. how many videos) will be there beforehand, so I can't simply add them in a layer on the Stage;

I have a graphic sitting on my stage that I want to convert to a movieclip so I can change it's alpha with as3. If I change it from a graphic to a movieclip my swf stops working. I have a bunch of code which constructs a dynamic menu and it stops working when the graphic is changed to a movieclip. They aren't related in any way so why would this happen? As a graphic it doesn't have an intance name and nothing is happening to it. It's not animated or anything. It's just sitting on the stage.

the only thing I found in the documentation was loadBitMapdata and methods of that type. Not sure if that's what I want.
In particular, I have an existing movieclip that is linked in my library. It has a graphic, a timeline, etc. However, I want to dynamically change it to another graphic and timeline.
Do i have to create a new movie clip with the new graphic and timeline? But I still want to keep all the attributes of my original movieclip, I just want the new graphic and timeline.

the mouse_over state im doing tweens the alpha of a button to reveal more buttons underneath.The only problem with tweening the alpha of a MC is that I cant click on the buttons underneath, only a graphic. However, I cant figure a way of just using a graphic symbol instead of a movieclip.And I really dont feel like using more than one frame, that is accepting defeat in my oppinion. ha
