Flash :: CS4 Losing My Panel Groups
Aug 27, 2010
I've noticed recently (the last week) that when I open Flash CS4, the Tools panel and the Actions/Timeline/Compiler Errors/Output panel group are not automatically open, like they always were before. Does anyone know of anything I could have changed by accident?
At the same time this started happening, I have a file that has a moving hot spot that is set with keyframes (depending where the active button is on the bitmaped screen capture behind the button). Even though the button's onRelease handlers are advancing the timeline correctly, my button is not in the right place in the runtime version. If's still fine in the development environment. It's like the layers are out of sync with each other.

Does anyone knows of a way to get the output panel in flash or the console panel in flex builder or flash builder, to format the "traces" with html or any thing else? for example:
trace( <b>brett</b> ); and to get that to appear in bold in the console window or the output window?

I've messed around a bit in Java and Visual Basic. For our class we've been assigned to make a flash game in groups, and our group has decided they want to do a base defense game. I've been looking hard for open source/tutorial versions of a simple base defense game, but all I've found are tower defense games.

I have about 5 layer groups in Photoshop and in each of the groups/folders there are some layers with some text and other layers with isolated images and also layers with some layer styles. When I import this file into Flash I need each of the layer groups to be imported as a flattened bitmap image. I don't want any of the text to be editable or to have any of the layer styles intact. So if there are 5 layer groups in Photoshop, I just need five bitmap images in flash. I've tried doing this but it still imports the layers separately. I know I can flatten the groups in Photoshop but I want to keep this file editable.

I discovered this while doing some programmatic panel resizing:Components in a spark Panel will still be visible when their location is outside the physical Panel boundaries. This does not happen with the mx Panel.unning Flex 4.1 on Windows 7I tried putting mx and spark controls in the spark Panel, and they both appear outside of the boundaries. Note this doesn't happen with the mx Panel. What am I missing to make the spark behave like the mxSample Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

I want to create a panel docking to a pop up panel in my flex app, like Winamp's playlist window can dock to main window. but I didn't find any useful on docking in flex
I've traced the PopUpManager, but I didn't find any available interfaces or events about popup window's moving, I think it's design shouldn't be so bad.

I have a logo which I have created in photoshop, it is made up of 4 layers, some of which I want to animate. I create my movie, I do so by opening my PSD file and then animating the layers. However I have a problem in that when I view my movie the image quality is poor, and there is what I would describe as noise around some of the image.

I built this incredibly brilliant scrolling thumbnail image viewer for a client in flash actionscript 3. (Basically it just scrolls up or down depending on the mouse position). It works so so, (I can never get the percentages right so that it shows the top most image) but, that's beside the point. What is REALLY irking me is when I have the browser window open with my .swf loaded and I click on another app on my desktop, the stupid scrolling thumbnail area in the browser window starts to freak out.
"Where is my mouseY?" I assume it is thinking.
Is there a stage.Unfocus event I can tell my scrolling thumbnail area to STFU with?
I'd even consider writing some javascript to call a flash function, if that's a preferred technique.
function checkMousePos(e:Event):void
{
if(mouseX < 145){
try{

I have a flash file in a div. This div is set to visible (display:block;). The div has two sister divs. All three divs are controlled by custom built jQuery tabs, so when another tab is clicked, the currently visible div turns display:none;. When the tab is reclicked to set the flashes div to display:block, the flash file loses all its values that are stored (for example in a textarea, all the text gets reset, and where a element stores a path to the image, that gets reset).
I have tried other methods like width:0; height:0;, which sort of works, but as the flash file is larger than the other two divs, it is still visible underneath. So then I tried overflow:hidden; but the same issue still occurs as above (losing values).
visibility:hidden isn't applicable as there is a large white space where the flash file should be.
position:absolute; top:-800px; left:-600px; loses variables.
border: 0; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; margin: -1px; overflow: hidden; padding: 0; position: absolute; width: 1px; also loses variables.
Is there any other method I can use? I have wmode=transparent aswell.
Below is the code of my flash embed:
<object wmode="transparent" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="690" height="2047" id="gdh_v3_1" align="middle">

I have a higher resolution .flv file and I'm trying to replace an older version within my Flash file. However once replace (by use of the "swap video" feature when right clicking video), it blows the video up way bigger. When trying to scale down the video, it become fuzzy/pixelated upon output to .swf. Any proper way to resize this higher-res video without loosing picture quality?

I've been having this really annoying thing happen the past few days, that has happened before but not as frequently. I create a project in Flash Builder, import some classes, and then on occasion it keeps erasing those classes. So then I get errors in a lot of my datatypes, have to go back through my document and retype the datatype so that it reimports the class.
I know flash builder can be a bit buggy at times

I have a parent movie that can load various "overlays", which are externally loaded swf's. For several of these overlays now, when the overlay is loaded into the parent movie, any components it was using seem to disappear, or more precisely, use the parent movie's component (so if the parent movie doesn't have an instance of whatever component it is in it's library, then the child won't display anything.) I have been able to (sort of) solve the problem by creating an instance of whatever component it is in the parent, but this is undesirable, especially since different overlays may use different versions of the same component (i.e., skinned UIScrollbars.)
So, code in the parent:
Code:
public function drawOverlay (rID:String, payload:String, x1:Number, y1:Number, w:Number, h:Number, o:Number, bg:String, bc:String, bw:Number) : void
{
trace("SKIN - "+rID,x1,y1,w,h,o,bg,bc,bw);
[code]....
The child runs perfectly standalone (of course), and everything except components work fine when loaded. Everything is CS4/AS3. It seems like I have a rooting issue, where the root of the loaded swf is being linked to the root of the parent, but I don't know what to check out...

there was that update that made it so you cleared flash saves out whenever you cleared your browser's... what was it, cookies or cache? I'm looking it up but Google is being shockingly unhelpful, only giving me advice from the Flash 8 days. The thing is, I would far prefer to manage my flash saves manually. I know that's not the universal preference, but it prevents me from losing saves when developing, and prevents me from losing game saves for that matter.
But I would really like to clear my browser cookies and cache! It's really getting gummed up in here. So my question is: is there a user-friendly way to manage flash saves directly? Is there a way to empty my cache and cookies without losing every flash save I have?

I've a simple flash application that does counting on button click. I load it in a page and a javaScript code does some DOM manipulation to move it from one div tag to another. Problem: the state of the count is not preserved as the swf node is moved from one node to another. What I did:
I simply get the node using javascript getElementbyId function and then once I get the source and destination div nodes then I use destinationNode.appendChild(sourceNode); //javascript This works well in Internet explorer, but it doesn't work in Chrome and Firefox. So then I tried prototype library.

Possible Duplicate: losing extension when use FileReference download I'm having an issue that looks common when using the FileReference class in FP10 when saving a file. The whole thing works fine as long as I don't change the default filename. If I do, then I loose the extension of the file... which is annoying >_< I haven't found any "acceptable" workaround, but the posts I've seen are from a couple of months already. So I'm inquiring hoping that something's been done regarding this issue since then =)

Some slides have button on it, that change the slide, jumping to a chapter the user whant to see.the problem i'm having is that when the button at a slide is clicked, the key press detection does not work anymore. To make it work, I have to click somewhere on the stage.

I am trying to automatically resize the children within an s:Group. The children are another s:Group and a H:Group. Each have a percentage width of 10% and 90% each. The problem is that when one of the groups is resized (using a transition and rotation combination in the Skin), the other group does not automatically resize to fill the space?
Shouldn't Flex do this automatically? or do I have to code this?
<s:Group
id="listsGroup"
width="100%"
height="255"

Is there any open-source algorithm for path-finding that can handle groups of objects? I'm developing a (flash) game like Age of Empires.
I will be using AS3, but I can translate any code or pseudo-code.

can I somehow create logical groups of objects without actually combining them into symbols which would appear in the libraryI was thinking of this approach
ActionScript Code:
var vertFloatGroup:Object = new Object(); // the logical object
vertFloatGroup.addChild(splashPhoto); // splashPhoto is an existing instance on stage
vertFloatGroup.addChild(nav); // same for nav
interact with the group as a whole this above tells me that addChild is not a function...

I've built a simple file to demonstrate what I'm trying to do (it's all dynamic, with AS3, no physical assets). Basically I've created 3 groups of objects via AS3: squares, circles, and triangles. I've placed 3 menu buttons on the side of the stage. I added all objects to the stage just so you can see them. Ideally I'd like to have each button call one of the groups to the stage and begin the tween that is assigned to the object. In this case I've made all the tweens 'alpha' for simplicity. So for example if the '1' button is clicked, it will add the group of squares to the stage and initiate their alpha tweens so that they fade in. Then when the '2' button is clicked, the squares will be removed and the circles will be added and their tweens initiated. I've never seen a tutorial on this so I'm not quite sure how to proceed. What I'd imagined is to group the objects into arrays then add the arrays to the stage with addChild?
I'm using this as a simple model to build a website where I'm going to be calling the content of each section of the site dynamically with menu buttons, instead of using the timeline at all. This is the next step in my actionscript evolution.

Using the Radio button component and I have 10 groups of buttons. Each group has a group name of g1, g2, etc for each yes/no button. I want to determine which button was clicked. When I run the code below I only get the first one and then each other button clicked I don't get a trace statement back.
var rbListener:Object = new Object();
rbListener.click = function(evt_obj:Object) {
trace("The selected radio button group name is "+evt_obj.target.groupName);
};
for (rb=1; rb<=10; rb++) {
_root["g"+rb].addEventListener("click",rbListener);

I am trying to extend the DataGrid to allow headers for different groups of rows. However, I cannot figure out which method to extend from DataGrid that would allow me to accomplish this. I do not want the headers to be included in the dataProvider, only the rows. I want to specify indexes to insert the headers at using a property of the custom datagrid.
Here is a quick photoshop showing what I am trying to do:
Is there any custom component already built that will do this?

I don't know anything about regular expressions and I don't really have the time to study them at the moment.I have a string like this:test (22/22/22)I need to capture the test and the date 22/22/22 in an array. the test string could also be a multiple words string:test test(1) tes-t (22/22/22)should capture test test(1) tes-t and 22/22/22I have no idea how to get started on this. I managed to capture the date string with the parentheses by doing:(.*)but that really doesn't get me anywhere.
