View 2 RepliesThe code I'm building creates two MovieClips on the stage, in one it instantiates several text boxes and in the other some buttons.
What I can't do is access data from the text boxes (e.g. textField.text) for use in the functions called by the eventListeners attached the buttons. I had the system all working nicely before I placed the text boxes and the buttons on separate movie clips.but this structure makes it much tidier to refresh the text I'm using.The button functions are fine with variables created prior to the building of the text boxes.
Am I failing to address the text boxes correctly (because they're on another movie clip) or is there a stage / movie clip property I need to set so they can see each other ... or is this something else altogether?Could it be that the buttons are created before the text boxes?

I want to load an external swf called 'signs.swf' into an empty mc called 'signholder'.
var loadit2 = new Loader();
loadit2.load(new URLRequest("signs.swf"));
signholder.addChild(loadit2);
Everything works. Cool. But, I now want to target something within the signs.swf. How do I do it though? What is the path? Do I have to give the child of signholder an instance name? Everything I try fails.
If I wanted the root timeline of the external swf to gotoAndPlay(2) for example,...would i say...
signholder.loadit2.gotoAndPlay(2) ???
var wow:MovieClip = loadit2.content as MovieClip;
wow.gotoAndPlay(2) ????

Is there any program or setting for "pointing" flash programs at my graphics card rather than leaving it to the processor and RAM alone? I am running a specific frontend software that is a flash executable- unfortunately it lags heavily on execution despite the fact that I have a very nice video card installed.

View 4 RepliesI'm using the FETStationPanels from FlashEff2 with Flex 3. Unfortunately, it is garbling some of the letters.Imagine that I've got three buttons. If any of the buttons are selected a titleWindow opens. Inside the titleWindow is some text pulled from a database that has the FETStationPanels effect applied to it, and an image. The first button that is clicked (it doesn't matter which one) will have garbled text. If I select another button, then the effect is fine and everything displays okay.
The FlashEff2 effect is fired on the creationComplete event of the TitleWindow.
I had a resize effect on the TitleWindow. I removed it, because I thought that that might be the problem. I put in a static height for the TitleWindow, but that didn't work either.I also tried using callLater and setting a timer to delay the appearance of the image until well after the effect had ended, but that didn't work, either.
I have a text box movie clip called Text_mc. The Text_mc contains the number "1".I need this number to be updated daily at 12:00am by adding "1" to the existing number. Actually it is like a counter, but it counts days from the number given in Text_mc. Daily it adds a number to the existing number at 12:00am.

View 1 RepliesHaving installed Amara flash slideshow builder it failed to run stating my flash was not installed or out of date. I knew this was not the case but uninstalled and re-installed flash anyway. I tested it on the adobe site, all ok and also tested it on a couple of sites using flash. All ok. Same problem with Amara tho', not recognised.So downloaded SWF 'n slide, another slideshowmaker. It also failed to recognise any flash installed (with dialog).Following some research I downloaded SubInACL from microsoft and ran it to ensure all my permissions were ok, but seems they were ok as it hasn't changed anything. What do I do now? I'm kind of stuck, I really need a flash slideshow builder, but seems they won't run, why?
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to start a seperate flash application from a main flash application. I really want it to be like how a messenger works... where the chat window is independent of the parent program and the user can minimize it or move it around the screen. I also need to be able to pass variables to the "chat window". I am thinking about using something like fsCommand maybe.. but I would also like the child window to be a swf and not exe file.What I got is a parent program that will be responsible for child programs The child programs will be started using variables that the parent initializes the child with (flashVar). The child window will be similar to chat windows such as Yahoo messenger.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to learn Flash Professional from the CS5 Design Premium programs. I have the Adobe CS5 Design Premium Digital Classroom to go along with the programs. One of the classroom projects is to add TLF text to your graphics. But it doesn't work. I can get the Classic Text to work but this is no use to other lessons when most refer to the TLF text. Even one lesson file you open has the completed work that you are to refer to and the text is not showing up in it. I have Windows 7, Flashplayer 10, and ActionScript 3.0.
View 6 Repliesim new to CS5 but alot of my Action Script 3 tutorials and books require me to install it, (namely to create MovieClip files). My question is I intend to write software using flash that I can then sell commercially but im confused as to what licence I would need to do that? or if my CS5 licence would need to be valid for as long as I sell my software..... so far I have the trial version of CS5 Pro to continue coding but after reading this part of the user agreement (see below) it suggests that I cannot sell software with any 'output' files I produce during the 30 day trial... is this correct? what licence, if any, do I need to sell my flash programs created using CS5 Pro and will I need to keep it renewed once the program development is finished?

View 4 RepliesSo I've decided to at least have a fallback option outside of cs4 for all further projects by using a shared library (IE, my graphics in a separate swf)So, what are some programs that would allow me to do this? Preferrably something that can take illustrator files. Anything thats going to let me package graphics for as3/flash 9+I looked at swfmill, but does it function with as3? I couldn't figure this out, it looks like it was last updated in 2005 and the tutorial was still talking about attachmovie (which is deprecated)A program like this would be useful for new versions of HaXe as well. Having everything you're developing thrown in a single .fla is awful for a lot of reasons

How could I populate one dynamic text field using a combination of the two elements above? I'd also like to put a line break between the two elements.I tried something like this and could not figure it out

I can't figure out why this text file won't load when its parent swf is being called into the main swf but will separately. in an actions layer on the main timeline I'm using this code: _root.contents.loadMovie("easter_scroll.swf"); I'm calling the easter_scroll.swf, which calls Easter.txt, into index_main.swf but the text file doesn't load although the easter_scroll.swf loads. I am confident one of you flash gurus can figure this out.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to develop a "virtual" video driver based on ViVi project example. It's virtual since it doesn't interact with any camera. It gets a video stream from a user program (C++) and also it acts as video driver for another user program (Flash) which displays the video stream.
So, if I have a /dev/video0. One program needs write frame to it and another reads one from. Is that possible? I need this because Flash doesn't recognize this camera, so I use a virtual driver as a bridge from my grabber (which uses the real driver) and Flash.
Is it possible to say, make an application that passes its keyboard events to other programs?Like if I typed something into a text field in flash it would also "type" it into chrome, microsoft word, notepad++, ext.
