I'm trying to make an interface akin to the DS (have two screens, top just displaying the images, bottom handling input), but I'm not sure how... Would I just make 2 different flash files then merge them somehow, or would that not give me two seperate screens?
View 0 RepliesWell I'm having some interface issues and i can't figure out how to cope with them. Firstly my "output" section is highlighting in lightblue(like the black arrows showing), it affects my application which is kinda annoying. img257.imageshack.us/i/libd.jpg Second thing is how to make "library panel" come back to right top section(so right scroll is more on the center?

View 2 RepliesI want to make an interface that can be controlled by the mouse or by the arrow keys - the only simlat to what I'm trying to achieve is the game Colin McRae.
Lets say I have 3 buttons. If I move my mouse on any of them it gets an mouse over effect.
What I want to do is to combine this with the arrow keys that should be able to jump between the buttons - and the one selected is in the "over" state - to select it I press return.
i seem to have trouble finding on the internet what happends when one interface extends another interface.

I've created simple swf with interface:
public class Test extends MovieClip implements ITest
{
public function Test()
{
[Code]....
So if I have test.swf in the same directory(local way) it work's fine. But if I'm placing it on the dedicated server: (event.target.content as ITest) returns null. However, I can access speak() without interface like this event.target.content.speak("a!");
it possible to create a button in flash that when clicked the flash interface extends to fit fullbrowser?
View 4 Replieshow can I increase the size of flash CS4 interface? Meaning also to enlarge tools buttons, so they are easier to see. I have to strain my eyes, because all of the toolbars and text related to them are too small, for constant work.Is this possible? I know there is one way - to increase display DPI settings, but that would also increase the whole desktop, but I would like just to increase flash interface text size and if it is possible then also tool buttons.
View 1 RepliesI am creating a Mac cd rom with a flash interface and want to open folders on the cd by clicking a button on the interface. I read the this can be done using a bit of applescript but I'm having trouble executing the applescript from flash, I have save the applescipt as an app and when I run it I independently it works fine but when I try to run it using FScommand from flash no joy?
This is the action I'm using on my button:
on (release) {
fscommand("exec", "test.app");
}
I have also created a folder in the root of my cd called 'fscommand' and put my script app in there but still it wont work?

View 2 RepliesThis is a computer I am provided with while I work onsite. I am having severe corruption issues. Sometimes the fly out panels appear on the opposite side of the monitor, scroll bars duplicate and appear over the top of my work, and the toolbar just disappears completly until I mouse over each button and force flash to redraw them. It seems to be redraw issues of flashs actual interface, not my work.Not sure how flash renders its own interface, but my .NET framework and java is up to date if that makes any diff.Is this an incompatibility with the video card? I've never seen this before and I wasnt able to find any solutions while googling, or even mentions of this issue, unless I was just searching for the wrong keywords
View 1 RepliesI'm developing a Flash web site with AS2 that uses a "pan" interface to transition between sections. When the user clicks on any of the sections, the entire web site pans to the location of that section. I've accomplished this by placing all of the content inside of a container movieclip, then tweening the movieclip's _x and _y properties using TweenMax. Everything works great, but the transitions are a little choppy and I'm trying to find any way I can to smooth them out. You can view the site in development here:URL...I know this type of question is hard to answer without looking at the code to ensure I'm minimizing CPU usage wherever possible, but I am using TweenMax as my tweening engine, and from the research I've done it is the least CPU intensive tweening engine available. Additionally, I know this site is pretty graphic intensive, so there is a lot of graphic rendering that is going on as the transition takes place.So, my actual question - is this as smooth as I can expect the animated transitions to be with the amount of graphics I'm using, or is there anything that anyone can think of that I could try to increase the frame rate?
View 2 RepliesHaving a problem trying to get the external interface working with as3. My flash file has 2 input text boxes with instances of 'received_ti' and 'sending_ti' and a button with instance of 'send_button'. My html code has a simple form with 'sendField' and 'receivedField' inputs and a submit with a value of 'Send'.
At the moment i can get the flash file to send text into the html 'receivedField' input but cannot send text from html into the flash file's 'received_ti' text box.

I'm having an incredibly annoying problem with Flash CS5 on my Mac that is making the software absolutely unusable.
If I open a previously worked on file and start deleting layers and moving keyframes, the screen never redraws the interface. As in, if I delete a layer, I don't actually see it go away. It's still there in the interface. Minimizing/maximizing does nothing to refresh the interface.
I am developing a test system and want to allow the users to access the questions in the database without the ability to copy them. A php file intermediates the access with the database. There a couple of links to certain sections of questions and then links to certain pages. Is there a possibility to put this php content in a flash frame and deactivate the possibility to select text?

1. The task at hand that the client needs is to be able to import about 2 min. of flash video.2. Once the video is playing in the flv the client would like the user to be able to click and edit button.3. Edit button than takes you to a screen where the start point and end points are shown. The start and end can only be 30 sec.4. Once you locate the start of your video you can drag the end point where you want it to end.5. Than you click save and the video player will now only show the 30 sec clip you designated.

View 1 RepliesI need to prototype a tabbed interface in Flash, AS3. I was thinking of 3 MC buttons on my timeline (let's say there instance names are; tab1, tab2, tab3).
In theory I would have a respective MC (instance names; content1, content2, content3) for each tab and when the tab was clicked on, it's MC would appear below (i.e. tab1 was clicked and in result shows content1).
Any guidance as to how I would structure this in Flash I'm blanking on the code structure to get this working and can't use easy goto's on frame ids as once performed in AS2
first off is this possible?personally, I believe it is if I can some how set up my computer to be a server.Basically what I want to do is have a flash document on my website access/create text files on my hard drive.I know I need something along the lines of XML or PHP can anybody tell me what the best things are to start with?

I have a flash player with an external javascript interface: reloadData() I'm calling that function via Javascript when editing information on the page - basically to keep data on the page and in the player in synch. The reloadData() function works fine when the player is hosted locally. When we move it to the CDN (Amazon Cloudfront), the player loads successfully, but the external javascript interface no longer works - console.log(player) reveals the following:
<object type=,"application/x-shockwave-flash" data="[our_cloudfront_url].swf" width="920" height="404" id="player" style="visibility:visible;">
Uncaught TypeError: Object #<an HTMLObjectElement> has no method 'reloadData'
I know there are a lot of things that behave differently when working with items on a CDN, but we're using a CNAME to point to the cloudfront distribution
