ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading An Swf, But It Doesn't Show?
Apr 7, 2010
I've been told by another intern where I work, that I must package the game I'm making in an swf file and then preload it.So I'm trying that but fail.I have two issues:1) I use BitmapImages but don't know anymore what to do with them. Is I preload the swf does that mean all images the game uses are automatically are preloaded as well? 2) When I try to preload my own game, it doesn't show up. Oh uhmm.. I use flashdevelop so the preloader project has a Preloader class and a Main class. My game has a Main class as well.Below is the code I use to preload my own game:
Code:
package
{

I don't have a clue on what I'm doing wrong. Sometimes, when I open this page my html page , the swf don't appear. It won't happen always, but is really frequent.Important: when it don't appear, I do can hear the sounds that the swf movie makes. In other words, I'm shure that the object is on the page, but it just won't be visualizable.The error occurs on Firefox and Chrome (I didn't see it happening with IE, but I won't doubt that it is possible)The problem isn't in the swf because I have already tested with another file that have no code at all and the same problem occurs.Here is the page's code, generated by Flash CS5.5 when publishing the swf:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">

I have created a Flex custom preloader, exactly like it is done in this example: [URL]
Now when I implement this, is seems to work fine on my computer in FireFox and Chrome. I publish it on the server, refresh my cache and reload the application and I do get my customized preloader.
But on a friend's computer, the screen stays white for a while, and then for a second or so it shows the preloader, but the indicator is at 100%.
So the loading already happened before it showed the preloader.

I'm using the code below on preloaders.[code]It doesn't always show all of my preloader, ie: by about 25% of the preloader animation it jumps to the movie. I still want the preloader to play all the frames before it goes to the movie regardless of download speed. Also sometimes it sticks on the final frame of the movie for a few seconds and then jumps to the main scene.

I'm trying to make text disappear and appear letter by letter, so i'm using dynamic text. I've made this code which should do this, the only problem is that the text won't show up. I used trace to check what does the dynamic text box contains after the code has done it's job and it contains what it should. So I don't really understand where the problem is. I've embeded all the lowercase letters since I'm only using those... I don't know what else to add here... except the code offcourse:
Code:
if (_root.butonselectat<>"")
{
stop();
[Code]....
Ignore all the "ifs" they just make the code do it's job when it should. And it seems that they work correctly. The first "for" cycle removes the text letter by letter and it only works if there is some text in the dynamic textbox while the second "for" adds the text letter by letter. I have the same code on two keyframes in the first layer and the the dynamic textbox on the second layer with only one keyframe.

Below you will see a snapshot of the mc where you can see the level of it also.I've checked the actions script but there's no problem with it. here is the AS:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (lMouseover) { _parent.text3.scroll -= 1; }
}

I made text box, typed some text, converted it to a movie clip, named etc. Used a purchased and proven scroller component ... followed directions to the letter, including referencing/linking the files. However, when I tried to test the scroll bar .... the scroll bar appears, scrolls and works perfectly except the text does not appear. I have tried making a scroll bar with the UIscrollbar same thing happens. I made an other attempt and put pics along with the text in the movie clip ... this time the pics appeared and scrolled, but the text still would not appear.

I've made a simple preloader to load a movie. This is the preloader code
[Code]...
I see the loading progress percentage correctly run, at the end rotator_mc and counter_txt are removed from the stage, but the loaded movieclip is not added to the stage, or at least I can't see it.

Working on an ActionScript 3 project in CS6. Following along with the "Flash Down Under" tutorial on the Macromedia website. In the tutorial, a pop-up menu shows up when the instructor types in part of the ActionScript command. I cannot get this function to work for me, even though the commands highlight when I enter the text in full. Anyone know how I can get the pop-up menu to display?

I have a textfield in a MovieClip that I'm trying to change out from an external class. It appears to return back as empty on the stage, but if I trace what's inside there it gives me the correct value, it just doesn't show up.
My code is this:
((this.parent.parent.getChildByName('bottomBar') as MovieClip).getChildByName('area_txt') as TextField).text = 'test';
So if I trace "((this.parent.parent.getChildByName('bottomBar') as MovieClip).getChildByName('area_txt') as TextField).text" it returns "test" but it doesn't display on the stage, it's just blank.

I am using the following code to load .md2 model in a scene using Papervision3D 2.1.932.
_md2.load(MD2_FILE ,new BitmapFileMaterial("./assets/dragon.png"));
scene.addChild(_md2);
By looking at the trace log, the texture is successfully loaded and so is the mesh.
INFO: BitmapFileMaterial: Loading bitmap from ./assets/dragon.png
INFO: Parsed MD2: assets/dragon.md2
vertices:294
texture vertices:262
faces:582
frames: 200
I can't understand why the object isn't visible in the scene.

I'm using the following AS3 code to load an external swf (one with dimensions I don't like) into another swf. When I view the loader swf while embedded in a html page nothing is displayed even though the loader swf displays the nested swf without a problem in preview.
package
{
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code]....
If I substitute the name "loaderSwf" with the nested swf name it plays fine. It seems as though the local html page does not like the fact that I'm playing a swf through another swf.

check out this website first for what I'm going for:
[URL]
The header is a graphic of a guy's head and a car.
I want to design the same kind of page but my header graphic will have a cartoon head instead of that guy's head and it will animate.
Now If the user does not have flash installed I would like to have a static header image appear, like a .jpeg or a .gif, instead of the .swf header.

I have a command script (framesSelected.jsfl - the code isbelow) which outputs information about frames selected to theoutput panel, which I find very useful. With CS4 (Windows XP), whenI place the jsfl file in the (suggested in the manual) folder(C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Flash CS4enConfigurationCommands)I expect it to show in the command menu as it did in CS3. Itdoesn't. Can anybody tell me why, and what I must do now to get itto show? (script follows)
var current_tl = fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline();
var selectedFrames = current_tl.getSelectedFrames();
var selectedRegions = selectedFrames.length/3;

I have a Flash website with 5 sections (Featured Work, News, About Me, Services, Contact). All the sections works fine, both in Flash and on the server, if the content isn't loaded from XML. But in the News section i use XML for loading the news.If i test my movie in flash, the whole site works fine, and the XML News works perfect. But if i test the movie in a virtual server (like MAMP) or if i test it on my own server, the news section doesn't show.

I'm using an editable datagrid where the user is typing in their data. When they click outside the datagrid it doesn't show the last value they entered. The value is there and if you click on that field again it will show up. If you click outside the field for a second time, this time the value stays displayed. How can I get the value to show up the first time the datagrid looses focus?[code]

I've been using CS4 to create flash 10 applications. It works well in other browsers, but IE 6 will not tell the users that they need to update their Flash Player. Instead, it will play the flash as if it's a video (keep looping from frame 1 to end) without allowing any interaction..

I have a Flex application that builds and runs from Eclipse without any problems. I've created an Ant build based on the sample provided by Adobe and builds the application and packages it up into an AIR application. No errors occur during the build process and an AIR file is created.The problem is that when I install the AIR application and run it, there is no UI at all. The process is running because I can see it in Task Manager but I can't see the app window. I've commented out all of my initial code so just the first window should appear but still nothing.

so apparently with the new update in IE8, it starts up with NO add-ons. Since I cannot program a code to turn on add-ons in a browser, I need to show a message when this occurs. Much like an image has alternative text in the event the image doesn't load...how can I add a message that states:
You are using Internet Explorer 8+ and need to turn on your add-ins like FLASH Player. This site is optimized for Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.
