View 1 RepliesWhen I open the Flash CS4 application, it starts up fine. If I select create new flash file, the entire application crashes. That's as far as I can get. I've made all of the recent updates that I can - it's flash version 10.0.2 ... I'm running OSX v10.4.11
I've tried restarting, that doesn't do anything. I've also tried starting up Flash with nothing else open. Haven't re-installed the entire thing yet (probably what I'll do next).
Code:
// Creare document XML in Actionscript 2 (AS2)
var xmlDocument:XML = new XML();
// specificam numele nodului radacina

Here it is the result. Also I have a tag named item1 that contains a title and the tag title is nested in tag item1 and also tag title has an attribute called Actionscript.
when i create a new document in Flash CS3 with choosing "ActionScript 3.0", i cannot edit the action script for any clips/buttons i made and when i pressed F9, it showed "current selection cannot have actions applied to it". however, when i created a flash file with selecting ActionScript 2.0, I have no such issue any more.
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to create a new xml document from flash?
I was thinking I could just have flash try to load a file that isn't there and it would create it itself, but that didn't work.
Anyone know if there is a way to do that?
Another one would be to delete an xml document from flash?
I'm trying to make a multiplayer game... When two people play each other I want to create a new xmlFile that the two people will read and write to while playing so it doesn't effect other people playing different games... And to delete the document when they are done so as not to waste space with already played games

View 1 Replies1. Create a new Flash document of size 450—300.
2. Create two dynamic text fields on the left side of the stage. Type some text into them as I have done. Give them instance names of titleText and contentText.
3. Create a new empty movie clip (Insert -> New Symbol). Give it a name Image holder and hit OK.
4. Drag the image holder from the library to the stage. Position it right after the title text field (refer to screenshot). Give the image holder an instance name of imageHolder
5. Now we need to create the images that show up on the right side of each page. Feel free to use your own, or use the ones that I have. Remember the location where you save these images! You will need the path when we define the image sources in the XML document.

I'm trying to dispatch a custom event. So that my main document class can react when a nav button is clicked.I have a navbutton class which creates the dispatch's the event... and is handled by the onNavigate Method...
private function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
//trace(_label.text + ": path = " + _projectNode.@path);
//trace(evt.target._label.text);[code]....
This onNavigate method works perfectly.... however when I try to create a listener in my main document class I don't "hear" the event.Here's part of the code from the main doc class...here's where I register the listener
this.addEventListener("NAVIGATE", doSomething);
here's where I should handle it...
private function doSomething(e:Event) {
trace(e.target.name);
trace(e.target._label.text);
I need to have a frame action launch a .html file (call it "time-crunched.html"), and then the flash window should close. That's it. It seems like it should be easy (and it WAS easy in previous versions).
I have already tried using the gotourl feature from AS2, but I keep being told that the functionality has been disabled in the current version.
I am on Windows XP, but I need the Windows projector file to work on XP, Vista, and 7, and the Mac projector file to work on 10.0 forward.

After that create a flash movie (a fla?)and add 'HelloWorld3.as' as the document class.Now I should run it and should be able to see 'hello word' ? but its blank?
i'm gonna make a flash header in cs4 to be placed on the webpage of a friend. the flash header is going to contain some small images and some text, all this is easy to do, but i'm wondering about how to publish it to the web, is a swf file and the html file enough? i want to create a text document where my friend later can exchange the images and the texts for his webpage by himself, without him having to do this in a flash programme. is this possible?
here is an example of how i want the header to look like, when you have the mouse hovered over the one big image[URL]..

View 15 RepliesI came across this piece of code and it intrigued me. I haven't seen skinning like this before. I'd like to know if there are any downsides and alternatives to it. For example, is it cpu intensive like addChild calls are?
<s:Button id="loginoutBtn" right="10" top="10" label="Log out" label.loggedout="Log in" skinClass.loggedin="skins.FBLogoutButtonSkin" skinClass.loggedout="skins.FBLoginButtonSkin" click.loggedin="logout()" click.loggedout="login()"/>

I have a Document Class called Main.as. I tested that it works using a simple trace statement and that outputs fine. I instantiated a Button control and tried to add it to the stage but I keep getting the error thrown below. The code for Main.as is simple and at the end of this thread. I tried all different ways to add the Button to the stage but couldn't figure it out.[code]...

View 3 Replieshow to make a button anchor to another page in the flash document? I made the pages with a basic flash tutorial, so I have other working buttons, but now I need to add other buttons and cannot seem to make them work. Here is my as:
sections.gotoAndStop("levenson");levenson_btn.onRelease = function() { sections.gotoAndStop("levenson"); sections.levenson.gotoAndPlay(2)}
I got a simple block of code that stops the main timeline on a certain frame, but so far I've been unable to form a code that would gotoAndPlay when mouse click happens on a button I made, and mind you I'm doing this in a document class. I've heard different instructions how to make the button, some say make it a movieclip, some say nest it in a movieclip
View 6 Replieshow use a button (or movieclip) to filter information out of a datagrid based on an external XML document. For example, say, the data were types of fruit along with their corresponding prices, but the user was only interested in the price of apples. To see only those records or rows with apples and the corresponding apple prices, the user would press the "Apples" button.
Creating the datagrid seems pretty straight forward, it's just the second part that's stumped me. Whatever the answer is would seem to go at the end where the "trace" is now. There seems to be many, many Web sites that sort of touch on this subject.I typed of the following from memory (I'm at work now), but I think this is pretty much what I have so far.
import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;import fl.data.DataProvider;

I want to create a flash document that allows me to change the colous of an image using a colour palette of my own. I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to start this, hence i would need to know what to do and how to do it. I basically want the image to be a simple 2d image that i will create using different layers in photoshop and import them into flash, the layer images will all be one colour so the colour of the whole layer changes. so the colour palette will be on the side of this and when i click on an image and then a colour the image changes to the colour i clicked.

View 5 RepliesI am having a problem where my buttons on main timeline are working fine. When I create a button within a movieclip layer (a page importeded from Photoshop as a movieclip) the button is not working once I leave. It doesn't show as a working button when I select Enable simple buttons, when I preview or publish as HTML. The thing is, it is a button, it has an instance name, is that weird blue color... and it works fine when I am double clicked into that movieclip layer. I also tried common library buttons and they work fine until I leave that layer as well, also tried it within other layers and creating a new file and doing it... all no success!

View 3 RepliesI use two classes for my current project, a document class and a menuscreen class. I have a function in my document class called startGame that i want to run from the menuscreen class when a button is clicked. I'm nearly there but i'm getting an error when i try to run it: 1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 1. The error is at line 17 in the menuscreen class, the line that tries to run the function from the document class. I don't understand what kind of argument it wants. Also, i'm not sure if the startGame function should be (event:Event) Hope someone can enlighten me on what's wrong!
