I've seen a lot of people with great documentation that looks just like the Adobe site. I got the impression from an article that there was an app (java?) that made the documents from comments written in the classes themselves?

View 8 RepliesHow is it possible to get codehints for classes that you have made or downloaded? I tried the program "Primalscript" and it makes a template class structure when you begin a new class where codehints and other stuff where declared in comments... Is that the way to go, and if so - how? I would like to get the parameters that are needed for certain classes to popup in that yellow little textbox as you type for instance: "Math.round(" You'll get a popup textbox saying "Math.round(number)".

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to use comments in Flash? I don't mean in actionscript using //, but somehow documenting how the app is setup.
View 1 RepliesI love looking through other people's codes and see how they style their comments, most people use a mix of * and ////, and of course it all depends on the language, but I have definitely seen some good ways to comment and some bad ways. A coded page can really come together with the right commenting structure and make it really easy to read for someone coming into a project without any knowledge.
View 3 RepliesYou know them flash decompilers - can they read your comments you leave in your code?Also, is there anyway to remove the comments if they can -- and can you somehow remove all whitespace and compact it so the swf runs faster, better, and is a smaller file?

View 1 RepliesI'm having a bit of a hard time putting what I want into words, which is probably why programming it has got me a bit stumped.Basically what I want is a nagavatable guestbook where the names of the people who left comments is shown in a list, and clicking on the various names would display their comment in a dynamic text box. This whole thing started as an extention of the XML Guestbook using PHP tutorial.My idea, and the way I've been trying to go at this, is to have the names show as text (not buttons or a movie clip, if I can avoid it) in a text area with a scroll bar to allow for as many entries as possable. Clicking on a name would load the data within the <comment> tag into a dynamic text fieldHere's more or less what my XML file looks like
Code:
<guestbook>
<entry>

View 2 RepliesI that when you place a MovieClip (or any other object) on the stage, you can give it a name and reference it with code. The main problem is that it doesn't have code hinting. I used to be able to do this:// MovieClip myClip;And code hinting would work. But I'm now using Flash CS5/AS 3 and that doesn't seem to be working.
View 4 RepliesSomething is corrupt with my Flash Professional CS5 Actionscript Auto format: Comments within a block, such as ' // ' or block comments ' /* ... */ ' are tripping up the Auto Formattor, which returns this error: ' Error with autoformat near line: }'.

View 1 RepliesI can find absolutely nothing when I search for an answer. I have a conditional comment in my html to only display a flash file when the browser is IE. And it works great, except that the conditional comment is displaying in my browser! [URL] to see the error (it only shows in IE). Could it be because I haven't declared the page as an html4 page? The only way I can get the comments to go away is if I use this syntax: <!--<![if lt IE10]><!-->my code<!--<![endif]--> . When I do this, of course my flash file shows underneath my alternate content on other browsers.

View 2 RepliesI am completely new to Flash and have been learning about alpha tweening to fade one .jpg image (of a customer's happy comment) to another. This works fine if I only have a small number of comments, but modifying each and every stage of the transitions would be a huge task if I have more than a handful of comments to deal with. Is there some way to set the transition and then apply that transition to all images? That way, I would only have to amend the transition once and it would make no difference whether I had 2 or 200 images to fade in and out of.
View 2 RepliesI'd like to create a rating and comments system to the video site I'm working on. Basically the user will rate the video (stars or thumbs up) from 1-5, have the new rating process and improve or lower the video rating automatically. For the comments the user will be able to write and send the comment and then either have it posted automatically with the option for the site moderator to erase any offensive comment or have it sent to a database for approval first and then post it by the site moderator. I assume I need a php form and action script code?
View 3 RepliesIn Flash CS3 when you did Modify/Document it allowed you to type in a document Title and Description which were metadata searchable by internet search engines. According to the book "Brilliant Flash CS4" this is still possible in CS4, but I think they have removed the option, and the book is wrong. add metadata for searching to FLA documents or is this now gone?

I have a dillema with Flash, and that is using more than 1 external document... Over the years I've tried using the include statement WHICH worked in as2 but now as we have progressed into as3 it seems to cause more and more errors! Why is Adobe screwing up actionscript? Back when Macromedia owned it everything was sooo much simpler than it is now
Right now I am making a Flash Game which is almost finished and I'm already using the external document for the GameController, I've added a brightness setting for portable users to make it brighter, I borrowed code off a kind coder and I'm now responsible for converting the external document into the actions keyframe...I used the include 'Main.as' statement and I get this error, packes cannot be nested.....is it possible to put the full code in my keyframes actions layer instead?

i'm trying to create a mix and match clothing application using flash for a school project but am having trouble with xml documents. Using an old gallery tutorial on the site, i found it was quite easy to load up one xml document, excerpt of code below.
I thought it would be as simple as copying all the code and changing the variable names to load a second xml document but i find when i run the code, that only the last xml document in the code loads
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
