I found it is very useful to load a swf into AS as class (what Embed metadata did). However, I am in trouble to do exact the same thing to content that is not load in compile-time (Loader and URLRequest). How can I do that?
View 1 RepliesI'm have made some buttons (movie clip) and when I click on it, I want a file (home.swf) to load in a loader (mx.contents.loader) and I want the other buttons to do the same, all load into the same loader. I have no Idea how to do that. The way I have it set up now, the home.swf will load over the entire screen and that is not what I want. I just want the content to load into the loader and have its content change once I click on the other buttons. Here is a copy and past of that I have at the moment, I'm using Flash 8 to do it all.

I have (for example) font embeder class, and I want to load external SWF not from application storage folder, but another local path ( "D:lah-blah123.swf") in AIR, but as you understand I can't find any decision on the Internet (Google, [URL])

Url...He wants something similar but his site will be 100% flash and so this will have to be done form a flash form.I'm having problems even getting this running from an HTML form. I've done my best here:URL...but since I don't know the original output settings of these flv files I'm trying to load over the submitted page, the versions are messed up and when I run the form, I keep getting prompted to download flash player.Do I need to embed these flv fiels of presenters I have and plonk them into a swf file and then load that swf file from the form, rather than link directly to the flv?I'm tearing my hair out over this - I thought I'd be able to work it out easily from the numerous pages out there that offer the same service but there don't seem to be any resources online that point me at creating a form to load flash content over a submitted URL.

View 1 RepliesMy company standard is IE7I'm charged with developing flv that will auto play on PC from a removable thumb drive.in addition it should be able to launch a url.I'm using CS4 Flash and Dreamweaverdeveloping on a Mac.I've used action script 3 to program buttons that start, stop and launch urlI've worked everything out on a Mac.it works fine in Mac environment. when I try load the html web page on the PC with IE7 the flash content (either a swf or flv embedded using Dreamweaver) does not load.IF I leave the IE specific html in the code IE7 returns a message that flash player needs to update. - IT has installed the latest version of flash player.If the swf file auto loads and plays then Why is that a problem?I've not been able to test the code on any other version of IE
View 5 RepliesI have a problem with my New Loader class I use as3 and buttons to load external files into into my main swf file and I resize the external files to match my stage but they always load from the top left at x=0 y=0 The action script i use is
var swfHolder = new Loader();
mybutton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOW N, mousedownpresser);
function mousedownpresser(event:MouseEvent):void {
addChild(swfHolder)
swfHolder.load(new URLRequest("myvideo.swf"));
Is there any way I can load the external files into a different position?

View 4 RepliesThe dilemma I currently have is that I'm hosting a resource that is application/octet-stream. In my Actionscript code, I'm using some library that ( from what I can recall ) does new Image and loads a resource into that object which was created.There is a method, loadImage(url) which accepts a url and that's where you feed it the path to the image.I do not have access to the loadImage source code, so I don't know exactly what it does, but the working one loads the image fine because the Content-Type is image/jpeg. The non-working one ( this one I'm trying to fix ) doesn't because of the different Content-Type.I'm wondering if someone can tell me if I can make the flash basically parse the URI as if it were image/jpeg, regardless of the Content-Type? [code]
I assume that Image the constructor is native to flash/AS, but I haven't been able to google the loadImage method so it must be custom, right?Or could the Image constructor itself be custom? An extended version of the original Image with loadImage method and such?Anyways, does anyone know how I can view the source code of loadImage? I did an ack-grep and found the source code for the loadImage method defined in a library:[code]Can anyone offer advice as to how I can do the loadBytes on this? I was thinking of defining a custom method, loadResource or something which can load regardless of Content-Type... or just create an optional parameter in the current load method and inside, branch out based on what was passed.
does anyone know where or what I would search for to learn how to get a news content to load into flash from an external source such as WordPress..?
View 1 RepliesI am extending TextField to create my own implementation of it, and there are some properties & methods I would like to simply remove from use, eg:
override public function setTextFormat(format:TextFormat,[...]):void{}
I would like now to hide setTextFormat from code hinting, so when, in some other class, I type:
var t:MyTextField = new MyTextField;
t.set
And hit ctrl+space I only see setPropertyIsEnumerable(...) and setSelection(...), no trace of setTextFormat(...). But no matter what I do it still appears, I tried @private metatag in asdoc, as well as some made-up (like @remove, @disable, @ignore, @deprecated). Using [Exlude] doesn't work either as, afaik, it works only with mxml. Is there some way to actually accomplish this task? Or am I forever left with useless and redundant code? Some plugin maybe? (I know I can just leave it as is and don't double methods, but, nevertheless, I'd rather have it my way)
I have a Flash Player ActiveX control embedded in a .NET WinForms application and am trying to load a SWF into the FP control over an HTTPS url. In development I'm using a self-signed certificate and it seems that in this scenario I can't get FP to accept the certificate and allow the HTTPS communications.When I try to load the swf over https directly, I don't see the swf and when I right-click on the control I see "Movie not loaded". I can load the swf over http and then try to make Flash Remoting calls over https. I don't expect this to work by default but I added a crossdomain.xml file to allow insecure communications. The crossdomain.xml file is in the root of the server but is not loaded. I added an explicit call to loadPolicyFile with the full https url and the crossdomain.xml file is still not loaded. The local IIS logs don't show any request for the file at all, nothing in the HTTPERR file, and Flash's policyfiles.txt log says URl...If I host the swf in a browser, then the browser prompts to accept the certificate and everything works fine. I've accepted the certificate in IE and Firefox.I also tried calling DisableLocalSecurity() on the FP ActiveX control but it had no effect. I didn't really expect it to since I'm not actually loading the swf locally, it's loaded from a url.Can anyone confirm if the self-signed cert really is the problem? Is there a way to get FP to accept the certificate? Any way to bypass the http/https restriction (this is a locally installed app so I can change any local config files we need)?
View 1 Replieshow to load dynamic content (movies, text, or whatever...) in flash that automatically changes daily, depending on the day of week (mon.-sun.)?

I have a "master" SWF file into which I load content (other SWFs) via the Loader Class (with code below).
var contentLoader:Loader = new Loader();this.contentContainer.addChild(contentLoader);I load the content (these other SWFs) into a MovieClip container on the stage called "contentContainer". The "contentContainer" is much smaller than the "master" SWFs stage and also much smaller than the original size of the SWFs that the Loader is loading in. Also, and this is very important, the "contentContainer" itself is sized -- not scaled -- (see code) and placed on the stage depending on how large the stage is scaled (I am trying to make one of those "liquid stage" flash sites that fills the browser window with flash content regardless of window size).//this resides in a function that is called whenever the stage RESIZE Event is fired

View 2 RepliesI have a loader that loads main application. Everything works fine, except one issue:
When main application is loaded, animation in loader freezes for few seconds (5-8). I think during these 5-8 seconds main application creates it's objects.
I tried to minimize number of objects in main application and it did help a bit, but freezing problem is still there.
How to load content without freezing?
I have a preloader that I downloaded... What I want to do is have this load only a certain percentage of the move before it continues to play the file.I assume that I have to edit the line of code that gets the total amount of bytes for the file itself... expressed below:
Code: Select alltotal = this.getBytesTotal(); // Movie Length
Since the variable is 'total' how do I make it load only 25% then start? I
Code: Select alltotal = this.getBytesTotal(25); // Movie Length ?
Code: Select alltotal = this.getBytesTotal() * .25; // Movie Length ?
i have some MCs with embedded buttons for "home" "about" "contact" etc. they seem to work just fine. i also have a MC clip (main_stage) in the center of my stage into which i'm trying to load jpgs (from an external file called home_back.swf) as backgrounds by clicking on the buttons. this does not work at all and i'm about to drink a gallon of hemlock to end my frustration.[code]i have since gone to MC/buttons to get some nice animations going as it seemed simpler this way, for the buttons at least. but now the above code doesn't work...apparently because that's button scripting and not MC scripting. so my question is how do i get these MC/buttons to link the external .swf jpg's to MC content box? if there is a simpler way to do this i'm all ears.
