I am new to this forum and flash itself as a web development tool. I recently purchased a flash template which was edited using .txt files. However, I have a problem in that certain people are unable to view the top of the site where the link bar currently resides. I have tried to move this bar further down the page and been unable to do so.
View 6 RepliesIs it possible with ActionScript to move a MovieClip's registration point?I'm having issues with scaling an object (via actionscript) from different points (left side, right side, centre) and getting round off error.Without moving the registration point, I need to fake the scaling to make it look like it's scaling from the right or centre. (registration point is at the left) I do this by scaling it then using some trig move its _x, _y coordinates depending on it's _rotation. Unfortunately, this is producing some very small roundoff error that propogates slowly but surely, upwards of 1 to 10 or more pixels. As it's a pseudo-ACAD application I can't really have that. I also tried using the localToGlobal and globalToLocal functions with the same results.
However, if I don't need the _x,_y transformations (the registration point is in the correct spot for the particular scale) then the round off error no longer applies.So yeah, I looked around a bit but couldn't find anything for doing this in ActionScript. (mostly tutorials on how to move the registration point by converting to a symbol or free transform tool)
I need to edit the url link to one of the .fla that was created by another person.I know normally you would just go to action, and then there would be action script like getURL (" "). However, in this case, I looked through the everything in the action script panel, still couldn't find the url actionscript. i know it's there because when i exported the flash to swf, the url is working.

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?

Using Tween class maybe? I tried the easeOut. But if will write 2 Tween, the 2nd one will overwrite the 1st one, so I only see the obj moving in the 2nd Tween direction, not the 1st Tween direction. I know the coordinates for the 2nd Tween below is not correct (cos all coordinates shld follow the defined reference point), so I need to find out the logo's width and height. But is alright now cos it is for testing purpose.

I've imported a vector graphic from AI into my stage. When I click on the vector graphic that's been converted to movie clip symbol and drill down to the vector level, as soon as I insert a keyframe in the timeline, I no longer can use an eraser to edit the vector graphic. It automatically move up one level as soon as I insert a keyframe. Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting this behavior? I want to create a hand written effect with this vector grachic.If I draw a vector square on the stage, convert to movie cli, double double click the movie and then I am able to edit or change the vector shap but that's not the case with the imported AI file.

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a project and i need to open a swf file, change contents of a swf tag without touching other tags I've tried "SwfDotNet library" but it does not output the unknown tags. For example if it encounters a "EXPORTASSETS" tag it does not write it to the output SWF because the library is old and supports up to swf version 7 and the tag is new. Are there any libraries with this capability?

View 1 Repliesi am new to Flash and am currently working with an XML based flash template. When i open the .fla file, none of the text or images show up. I understand this is b/c i have to edit the xml file in dreamweaver. However that is a very complicated way of doing it b/c then i have to keep going back and forth between several programs and saving, and updating, and never getting of "live view" of the chages i am making. My question is: Is there really no way for me to edit the whole xml flash template in Flash CS5? Meaning is there some sort of way to import or manipulate the files so that i can edit the text and images directly in flash pro cs5 and not having to keep going into dreamweaver?
