I am n00b with the flash. I had a swf and i decomplied it so i got lots of files including actionscripts. However i cant change the actionscripts. The program just doesnt allow me to make a change on it.
I would do it with notepad but there are so many actionscripts i donno which one has the code i need. Its actually very complicated. It made me sick.I just need to change some paths in actionscripts.
I was given a flash file for the header of a template site, but I am unable to change the movie/scene. No matter what changes I make when I test scene/movie I am not seeing any changes I have made. Even if I hide all layers and save when I test the scene nothing has changed. the only flash work I've done is making a banner that fades to different images.

View 1 Replies I made a flash-file that will load a file externaly (http://.../locus.f4v). When I publish that flash file it renders a locus.swf, locus.index and a SkinOverAllNoFullNoCaption.swf (skin).When I upload everything works fine. But to easily manage all of my video's I can't have them lying arround and would like them in a folder. So I create a folder locusvideos. I change all the links in the html-file to locusvideos/... .swf but it just shows an empty page.so where are all the files at? locus.html (is in the most top folder)
/locusvideos/locus.swf
/locusvideos/SkinOverAllNoFullNoCaption.swf
and the video-file is still on the same place.
how to change a few flash settings. My website is done except for these few minor changes.
1) There are two flash files, a menu and a header, in the menu when the page paods the buttons are white and turn orange when you scroll over them. Id simply like them orange when the page loads and then to turn white when you scroll over them. I can figure out how to get the scroll over to white but not the first part to getting the load orange.
2) In the header file there are several pics. Beside the pics there are scroll over buttons. Id like the first button, that says domestic contract, open when the page loads.
I adopted and existing site, and am making some changes.
Publish settings:
Flash 8
Actionscript 2
A seperate movieclip named page4 shows in the library to have 6 uses. On the clip are two text boxes both static and one has a movieclip button overlayed. Selecting any of the three changes the propery panel for allowing editing. However. Even though I can see the reference point (the cross) of the movieclip page4, I can find no way to get flash (CS5) to show me the properties to allow giving it an instance.
i have created a character.as class that links to an object sitting on the stage.
This class i have initialize var name;
i have created a button that uses on(release){}
the problem im having is, my button does not change the value inside the object.
for example:
my object has a variable called 'name' that holds the value "ayumilove"
and the button on the stage (once click and release) would change that name to "123"
i did 2 traces, before and after. the before trace is "ayumilove", and after trace is "123" However, after i click again (the 2nd time) , it still shows "ayumilove" then "123" shouldn't it be "123" and then "123" ? This shows that the name is not renamed, but overwrite back by the default value in the object.
I have a file with 12 roll over buttons that make a sound on roll over, but I'm unable to change the volume to lets say .5.

View 5 RepliesI am using a singleton class (popup, which means it doesn't forget the last used variables) which contains a datagrid. I am making various columns visible/invisible, setting the widths and headers in accordance to data received from a database call. Everything works fine except that when I put the breakpoints before and after the point where I change width of columns, I do not see the change in width of datagrid at all! Instead I see some values totally out of sync as widths of datagrid column! However, since it is a singleton class, the next time I call this popup, I see widths which I did set up in last call.
I must be messing up in calling the setWidth() function (which is my custom function which changes the width of datagrid in action script). What should be the point where I should call this function? I tried in creationComplete, show and in the setter of dataprovider.
i have an flash file, where i am calling script from the ".as" file. this works fine.Inside the flash file there is no code. All the codes is in the ".as" file. that's ok.But when i change the code into the ".as" file. that code doesn't works. To make that code work i have to re hit the "CTRL+ENTER" than that code works.I have changed the classpath also $(LocalData)/Classes.What i am looking for is, once i made an ".as" file, than i edit that ".as" file without opening the fla file. That code should work.

View 1 RepliesI have a site that plays either .mp3 or .flv files depending on what is selected from the menu. Menu loads in from xml. I get "unable to make connection with server or unable to find flv on server" when I try to play the video. But the video and audio files are all in the same directory and the mp3 files play fine. I think I'm having a problem with the setMedia command. Here's the code that loads the video and audio files.

Is there any way to change a context menu that already has been personalized. I have an small application that I purchased to learn with and also to save some time. When I right click the context menu appears with the other person's information in it. I want to change that information if it is possible to do so. I tried
var my_menu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
my_menu.hideBuiltInItems();
contextMenu = my_menu;
and added my info but the menu will not change from the person I got the app from. Is this considered unethical or illegal? I put so much work into this, I don't want the person to get credit for it.

View 3 RepliesI am displaying a combo box in something of a WYSIWYG preview. I want the user to be able to click on the combo box and see the options inside, but I don't want them to be able to change the value. I tried using preventDefault() on the change event but it doesn't work. I don't want to disable it because I do want the user to be able to "look inside" the dropdown.
So I'm trying to block the change, but can't. My next resort is to change the selected index back to what it was before the change, Is there any way to do this within the scope of a ListEvent.CHANGE event listener?
Current Workaround is to basically re-assign the controls selected item the same way I am defining the selected item when I originally build it (a default selection). So a user sees their change then it immediately changes back to the default selection.
So basically I have a class which adds items and needs a drag and drop. I change the x value of the entire contianer class simply by this.x = something
By drag and drop all the items slide across the screen. When I trace the x value of the container class it has changed, but the x value of the items stayed the same (although their x value on the screen definitely changed).

View 3 RepliesI am a high school teacher, attempting to teach a few simple animations in Flash. The only action script students have written is the stop action in the last frame. I have one student, though, who has drawn a snowman and a tree using oval and paintbrush tools. Every time she tries to export as .swf (or pressing Ctrl+Enter) the progress bar stops half-way and sits. She's waited 5 minutes and hasn't had any luck. Her .fla file is only 1 mb so I don't think it's a memory issue. Is there anything else that's keeping her file from being unable to export as .swf? The compressed checkbox is on in the export options.
