I am having trouble creating editable Video player Templates in Flash Pro. cs5 and Flash Catalyst.By editable I mean, other users can edit the video templates and upload and play their videos with it.
I started out with Swish, then I moved on to Flash8. I have quickly realized that it's a lot more difficult to achieve animation. Probably due to my lack of education with actionscript 2.0 and Flash8. Are there simple shortcuts to being able to do something as simple as making a photo spin around and explode? I haven't explored Flash8 much, but it doesn't seem as easy as Swish was. Of course, Swish seems obsolete compared to more advanced flash programs.
The last I have been using Flash was around 4 years ago and I have forgotten quite a bit. I remember I used SWISH Lite to create a typing effect (as a blinking cursor is typing a line of text one by one) and later i just could take this generator animation of my text and add it to my Macromedia Flash.I have installed the new SwishMax Trial, but I really don't recognize where I have to go in order to get this text effect generator running.
I'm developing an AS 3.0 wrapper to add some extra stuff that has to load some old and plain frame to frame SwishMax 3 animations and then be able to stop them,
[Code]...
The animation load works as expected but the movie.stop() doesn't. What is wrong?
i have found a website before with a good parsing of swish's math.approach to flash but i cant find it now.does anyone know how to emulate swish's math.approach in flash, or any website with an explanation?
I'm actually relatively new to flash and actionscript but I could say I have fair knowledge about them. So anyway, I usually build flash websites the traditional way using timeline animation and scripting. Today I had a job interview and they said they're looking for someone who can develop any web design into a Flash CMS with a back-end office for the client to edit the content without having to edit the FLA file or any code.
Accordingly, I'd like to know where and how to start. What are the main concepts I should follow/adapt?
I'm currently learning flash (slowly), where everything is taking me a quite while to do! But I'm learning it for my job where eventually I will have to update some templates, and was hoping someone could advise how long this would take an experienced flash person to complete;The animation features a car flying in from left hand side, then three lines of text dropping down on the right hand side, one after another.How long would it take to amend this basic template - animation remains the same but car image is different and text is different.
Just trying to get into Flash and although i can now make simple flash viedo's with changing pictures etc. I have just bought a new website template. But what i am after for the header is a flash video where there are tabs which when you scroll over them the tab enlarges. Hard to explain but please have a look at the websites below and you will see what i mean. where i can purchase a template to do this. [URL]
The slideshow template that comes with Flash 8 is okay but I would like some more. I have google on the internet but it is all spam sites and people wanting to sell me programs to make slideshows.
My sample templates are missing, all that shows now are Cateregory: Advertising and different size banners. I searched my harddrive and found the rood folder where they are stored but only the folder for Advertising exist. I haven't deleted anything, so could it have been a glitch at installation, I had startup problems with Flash constantly crashing at the splash screen and finally had to uninstall and reinstall. Running WinXP SP3.
I was asked to do a work plan for a simple flash based game, problem is I've never done anything like this, I googled and read about it but I just wanted to ask in the forums first to be %100 sure before I start writing. Besides the project's schedule, what does the work plan also include, bear in mind that this is for a simple flash game project?
when I go to publish my file or even try to click on publish settings ...I get an error stating 'No valid HTML Templates are available to complete this operation'e figure out where I need to place some files to fix this? I might have deleted some important files in the system.
Has anyone here used VAST on their custom players? I'm trying to find a discussion on it but I'm not able to find anything.I did read some info on the http:[url]... website but they don't explain much about integrating with custom players.
im developing a flash presentation using a default flash mx pro template,,, i need to add a menu but i can't change between slides.. im using a button with the next script:[code]
Why does test movie open a new window in the IDE instead of compiling? And when I try Publish Settings I get 'No Valid HTML Templates are available to complete this operation'.
I've been using flash8 on my computer without any problems since I've purchased it, until now. Suddenly I'm getting this error message when trying to publish. (it won't let me get to the publish settings)"No Valid HTML Templates are available to complete this operation".I've already reinstalled without any success, and have scoured the internet for a solution. It seems others have had this problem in the past but no one has a logic answer on how to fix this. So I come to you, I know my version is dated and not an actual Adobe product, but it was working fine.
This seems like it should be MUCH simpler than it is turning out to be: I have made a custom template in Flash CS4. I want to share it with a colleague. The obvious solution, I would think, would be to COPY the template file from my hard drive, and provide it to my colleague.
However, I have looked high and low, and CANNOT FIND WHERE USER TEMPLATES ARE STORED on my hard drive. I have found the Adobe-provided templates that are included with the product (the "Advertising" templates) at Program Files>Adobe>Adobe Flash CS4>en>Configuration>Templates>Advertising; but MY CUSTOM TEMPLATES are not in the Templates directory.
I have also looked in My Documents, and run several searches on my hard drive, but still cannot find the location of my custom templates. Surely they are SOMEPLACE on my hard drive, as they are available from the Splash page every time I boot up Flash CS4.

How to change the default templates in Flex? Maybe even add your own? It's just so tedious to have to rearrange, replace and copy/paste everything for each new project, if you want to use swfobject for instance, or if you just prefer a different folder structure.
When I target flash player 10 in flex builder 3, the index.html template along with some other files (history.js, etc) are removed and no wrapper html page is built.Anyone else experiencing this? I have an ant build script as well, but I was trying to run the built in fb builder.
