I've gotten far on my own just using online tutorials and dinking around in Flash on my own but my boss(es) are starting to ask for more complex stuff that I simply can't learn by just piecing together my Flash education.I know there's many, many books out there that will teach you Flash but can anyone recommend any particular one(s) that are more concentrated in creating Web elements as opposed to game or animation development?
Just looking for more recommendations for great Ojective-C-Cocoa books. My ideal book would be one with actual hands-on walk thru examples increasing in complexity and doesn't spend unnecessary time on basic OOP. Trying to leverage what knowledge I DO have in Actionscript 3. (or maybe its all about unlearning?)
Does anyone know which programs work best together with flash for importing graphics that are vector based. I need to know what program a graphic designer should use, so the programmer (me) can easily import the design into flash without much fuss. I know that illustrator is kind of good, but i heard that you could also use indesign.If you know of any limitations or little quirks one has to watch while exporting importing to / from flash or illustrator, had a problem with an illustrator file once that used many effects, it crashed my flash ide durring import.
I understand Flash CS5 isn't the best way to make an app, but I'd really like to test out the apps I've made with it on my iPhone. Has anyone come up with a way to modify Flash CS5 so it doesn't require a Developer Certificate or Provisioning Profile (like the way you would modify Xcode so you can compile apps without paying $99 for the developer program)?
I am a Java developer. I am good at learning new languages but I can't make head or tail of AS3. It seems like a different mindset that I can't get into or something.Could you provide links a AS3 tutorials that explain everything well, preferable targeted for people who have already programmed?

My organization is looking for someone with heavy Flash/AS experience for an upcoming project. How do I go about finding people with the right qualifications?
I'm in desperate search for a professional Flash Developer who wouldn't mind taking a few moments to participate in an interview about a past or recent Flash Project he/she has worked on. Unfortunately for me, I have had 2 people commit to this, and back out. The first completely ignored all messages and inquiries after I sent the information to her. After having no choice but to search for another person, I found another that was eager to help. Two days after I sent him the related material, I received a message stating he wasn't aware that it was a Flash project, and that they don't do any Flash in house, so as of last night, my second lead has turned into a dead end. I am now on my last ditch effort to find someone that would be willing to share their experience with me, so I can complete my assignment on time, which - by the way - is due Friday, October 29th.
I was wondering which IDE choice you flash developer use to write the code....I use Flex Builder for my AS3 only project so the code below will display nicely with coloring keywords. I wanted to know if there are better choices there...Also, does flash developer do the AS3 programming only? Do they do graphic design at all?
I'm trying to learn how to use flash, and there's only so much I can learn on my own. I looked up some books on various websites, but I don't know which would be the "best" to use for someone completely new to the program.
Any pointers where i could start learning flash programming. Also i would be really grateful if you could point me to place where i could get free templates for the programming
What would be a good resource for an experienced programmer to learn Flash?Consider a very seasoned programmer that doesn't require any teaching of programming concepts and that already programmed Javascript. Someone who never created a Flash file, or even know what Flex is. Someone who could probably learn ActionScript in a day but still needs to learn how to apply it.
I am looking at the creation of a quiz using the Learning Interactions in Flash.I noticed that when I place say a Multiple Choice question on the stage that the area which says 'Question will appear here' is a dynamic text field.This renders the final text bitmapped. Is there any way of getting the text to look like smooth like the rest of my work?I have tried to anti alias it for Animation and Readability but it doesn't change.nd in all honesty set against the rest of my work the text looks crap.
What are good books / site where you can learn the best practices for event driven programming in actionscript (3 obviously).
I've got a big project coming up and, to be honest, my flash is usually a big mess of classes and I don't want the the next one to turn into a ball of hair behemoth.
I'm having trouble getting two buttons to do anything. Right now I'm in the process of learning Flash to make a customized video player. I have a rewindButton and a playButton and both have up, over, down, hit assigned but when I run the video and hover over the buttons the mouse changes to a text cursor. No colors change and the buttons aren't clickable.I followed the Flash Video Basics 1 and 2. Also, when I take the // off of the ns play bnc.flv line, the audio echos. I have no idea what's going on.
Code: Select allvar nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection(); nc.connect(null); var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
I am trying to create a multi-player game and I found a VideoPhone sample that each client must have a key. But in this forum, I found a MMORPG that do not need any key for login.How can I do to implement this?
I have been doing ASP.NET / C# development for several years now. I have recently been offered a project that will need to be a winforms application (I am assuming .net 2.0).
I am using this book to help me learn Flash. In lession one the book instructs me to drag an item from the library onto the stage. I tried and tried but the object(s) are not moving. What to do?
I want to make this effect in my website where there are books on shelf and when you click on one say the "About" book it comes off of the shelf and flips open onto the screen and shows the text written in the book on what my website is about. Im not really sure on how to go about this. I dont want a application where you have to flip the pages or whatever i want it to be a static page but it just flips open like a book.
i am leaning Flash for about 3 weeks now, and i am quite good in that. I am AMAZED by all cool effects and trying to learn atleast 1 new every day. This tutorial, Coloring Book in Flash , is giving me headache for the last 2 hours. On the beggining of tut, it say to download and open souce FLA file- I saw that there is only drawing in start FLA file, so I make my own. Is that mistake, right at the beginning? If so, where I can find tut in the whole, so I can use my own images?
I am a graphic designer with many years of experience in Creative Suite Design Standard software. However I'm just beginning to get into Flash and have a project where I need to create a simple page-flipping brochure. My client has a 3-fold borchure in both SWF and JPEG formats which she wants to turn into a Flash flipping book to post on her website. I have the CS3 Web Premium package but I want to know if I need a third-party page flip plug-in or does my version of Flash (9.0) include the page flip engine?
Does anyone know know the name of a of flash book flip page creator with the following features:Downloadable software application, so I don't need to upload my files to someone else's server Produces an FLA file so that I can edit it as required.I've checked these questions, but couldn't find one. PDF to flash book (great resource but not what i was looking for)

I'm trying to learn AS3 and im looking for a classroom style book with examples and then programs that you need to do on your own at the end of the chapter.
