Flash :: CS4 Parameter Is Incorrect
Aug 12, 2009
CS4 was working fine for a few weeks, then yesterday I opened an FLA and got an error pop-up that said "Parameter is Incorrect". The error happened for all FLA files. I could save changes but could not preveiw or publish (same Parameter is Incorrect error as on starting CS4). I even made a blank FLA and it wouldn't work either.
Relized today during more testing that this error only happens any time I open a file that is on my desktop (running XP). Same file moved into another folder (Even desktop ewfolder) works fine.

I am working as a teacher in Singapore and I am currently doing a project for our school. I am using the Adobe CS4 Design Premium. I am using Adobe Flash CS4 for the project I am doing. Adobe Flash CS4 crash often and after the latest crash and when I open up my project i got an error which is "parameter is incorrect" and when I press ctrl+enter, it didn't pulish the file and I have noticed that the swf file that was created before is gone after I press CTRL+enter.

I'd been using flash cs4 fine for a few weeks before this happened but in the last few days whenever i save a file i'm working on i can no longer preview it (by preview i mean ctrl + enter) my cursor turns to the symbol to show it's working for a few moments but once i move the mouse this goes back to being my normal cursor. Whenever i try and publish a file i get the error "Parameter is incorrect". Before i save the work the file previews fine and even blank documents that i start and immediately save will not allow me to preview or publish them following the save
I'm running w7 64bit on a quad core with 4gb ram. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but this hasn't helped. My flash professional cs4 is also fully updated.I've attached one of my .fla files that to me i can't use properly anymore, it's just a basic animation of squares forming the words 'enemy down' on a black background.

I did not have any problems on CS4 but I encountered this error below when I used CS5. Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts. Now that the line of error is cleared. However, I am still having problems with my dynamic text fields which worked with correct values in CS4 but gave the incorrect values in CS5.

We are having some issues with phantom TextFields in our projects and about 5% of the files I encounter have a TextField with an incorrect font (which is how I know they exist). However, these TextFields don't show up in the "Movie Explorer", nor "Find and Replace", nor can an JSFL scripts find them. So the only way to hunt them down it to delete the elements in the Library until the Font in question no longer shows up in the Missing Font Warning on startup. I revert the file in SVN and dive into the components and then select the Textfields and without question there is a Textfield that had the incorrect font assigned to it.

I have an external as3 file for my timeline. I'm trying to download data from an xml file when a button is clicked. First, I have an xml loader. When it's finished loading, I assign the data to an xml variable. The trouble is, when I start this code from the onclick event, the code executes the xml loader, then the trace from onclick, then the assignment of the xml variable! So my data is always null! When I load the data from the constructor class, all is well. How can I make the execution take place in the proper order?

Can we skip an optional parameter and assign value to the parameter after the skipped one?
For example I have a function:
public function Dialog(message:String,title:String="Note",dialogsize:int=99):void
{
}
I can easily call the function with a message and a title:
Dialog("HELLO","Intro");
Is there a way to skip the title and just pass in the dialogsize? I've tried it but can't make it work:
Dialog("HELLO",,dialogsize);
Is it possible to skip some optional parameters without using (rest) parameter?

I currently have a few movieclips that I load into another movieclip container. I use the MovieClipLoader class to load them and make use of the onLoadProgress, onLoadStart, onLoadInit, onLoadComplete and onLoadError listeners.In the onLoadProgess listener, I listen for the loaded bytes and total bytes and put the the percentage into another movieclip's (that I put on the stage temporarily to show the loading) textbox. Here is the problem, the loading movieclip begins playing on the 40% loaded mark and does not wait to load 100%. This is weird and I don't understand what I could be doing wrong. Here is my code:
// loading icon to show progress
var loading_icon:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
// load PassionPurpose.swf

I've had this annoying problem since CS1 and persists through CS3. If i import an image (either to stage or to library then placed on stage) the pixel size reported in the properties box is smaller by a very small amount. For example, I just dropped a 1005x650 PNG on the stage. The properties box shows this as w[1004.8] h[649.9]. The file is 72ppi in photoshop. Zooming in confirms that the image is shrunk slightly. In this case, the image was same size as the stage and I could see the white background showing through on the right edge of the graphic. It means that everytime i put a bitmap graphic on the stage, I have to correct the w and h in the properties box.
Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution? Does it occur in CS4?

I've come across a strange error with a contact details form developed with Flash CS5 Prof. My keyboard layout is set up as English (UK) and pressing shift-2 gives me an ", shift-' gives me a @ in Chrome, Notepad, Word etc. In a text field on the flash form, entering shift-2 gives me @ but shift-' gives me ". I understand this is how the US keyboard is mapped out but it is confusing to my users.
How can I change the text field so that it works correctly for my keyboard layout?

//Handle game logic

the first "update" function of external as file works , but the instance i added in the 2nd external file, it gives me that error... (there is a 3rd one behind it which works too)
note: the code itself is an external as file of a fla file. (and i checked, everything is linked properly to their individual external as file.
this is the whole function code. (still doing in process.)

Forgive me for this stupid noob question but I want to call a function (loadList) that originally gets triggered after a mouseevent from another function (addToXML) that does not have an event.
The loadList function takes info from a XML var, sticks it into an array which then gets loaded into a tile list and that is working fine.
The addToXML function when called adds elements to the XML var after which I want to call the first function with the event parameter so it refreshes the items in the tile list.
I know it can do this by creating a new array and loading that into the tile list in the addToXML function, but it be much simpler to just recall the function.
I have tried things like
Code:
addToXML.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadList);
but all the event constants I have tried give me error messges like "1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Function."

im having problems with the following code:
for (var i:Number=0; i<numFaces;i++){
var faceLoader:Loader = new Loader();
faceLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.INIT,
function(fle:Event){
[code]....
The problem is that im sending the variable i to the function LoadCara on every iteration, and its always called with the last value of i. I would like this function to be called with the appropiate index.

basically, the ecard will start with 3 questions.each question has 3 answers.so user choses the answer e.g. B, B, C and clicks preview.it will play the movie clip assigned to B B C in sequence.then user can click send to sent to friend.so the URL needs to be able to identify the sequence maybe in parameters.so that when his friend receives the ecard and clicks on the flash it will play B B C sequence.then his frind can create his own ecard and maybe A C A etc...So how i created like that?

I have a flash file that has a movie clip in it. In this movie clip there are two movie clips. What I need to do is show a one movie clip and hide another. I basically only need help with setting up the reading of the flash parameter code in flash...
Code:
var imageToShow:String;
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
This is basically what I have.I'm not sure what to go on to next or if this is even correct. I basically need to get to the point where I can say...
Code:
if (parameter == "image1") {
image.image1.alpha = 1;
image.image2.alpha = 0;

i have 1 PHP page in which i have a Flash animation. this flash swf file, display 2 fields and 1 button.
this php page is called "test.php".
i'm able to send data from Flash to a PHP page, but i would like to send the content of those 2 fields to the "test.php" and display them. however, i do not know how to do it.
i see that it works but i'm not able to display or refresh the PHp page to display the result.
as walkaround i was thinking to collect the webpage address where is executed the flash and to send it to another PHP page. and this 2nd PHP page, will reload the test.php with parameters...
how to get under flash, the address of the actual executed php page ?

Ive been using the 'event' parameter for my KeyboardEvents and MouseEvents in a recent project ive been working on for my course (VERY BASIC).Im not entirely sure on what the 'e' part of e:KeyboardEvent actually does, and ive been asked to find out what information the parameter 'e' can actually access when using it.
EDIT: If A method takes the parameter (e:KeyboardEvent). what information could we access through the use of the parameter e?

I have a movie clip which has a function on it that loads some xml (actually xml that is created on the fly by php). The problem is that I have several different parameters - 3 in total which have to be tagged on to the URL so that the xml can display correctly.
I have no problem getting the first 2 parameters into the URL, but I cannot get the final one. On the _root I can trace it fine via another function however I can't get the parameter from the function that lies on the _root, into the URL that sits in another movie clip.
This is what I have for the code that sits in the movie clip:
//load vars for product info
var sendProduct_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var prodID:Number;
[code]....
What I am trying to do is get the URL that is declared in the first function after xmlData.load to have page=2 or 3 or whatever page I hppen to be on when the function floadPopup is invoked.

I'm doing a little flash nav bar and I'm trying to have the buttons link to the correct web pages. My code is extensive and I'd rather not post the whole thing in here so I'll try to be as concise as possible.Basically I'm getting this error:1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 1.Everything was running smooth in my script until I added the URL requests here:[code]Is the syntax incorrect or something? Again, everything was fine up until I added those two at for case 0 and case 1.

I am using AS3.0.I have created simple forward naviagtion from my homepage to my second screen using the code below and a simple button (click1)
//handle events for buttons...
click1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1);
function clickSection1(evtObj:MouseEvent){[code].......
Slightly modified code is used on consequent pages to navigate forward through my site.I have also created a home button that navigates me back to my first screen (called screen2) using the following code...
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickhome1);
function clickhome1(e:MouseEvent):void
{gotoAndStop("screen2")
}
However, when I return to the homepage and click forward, instead of taking me to the next page and the next page, it jumps me forward directly to the 5th. screen.
