My problem is that on importing a PSD into Flash CS5, my document loses the bevel and emboss effect that I added to the text layers I created in Photoshop CS5. I have tried merging the layers and flattening the image then importing, The bevel and embossing effects are now present, however, the colours have lost their brightness and vibrancy.
View 1 RepliesI am importing a picture in flash and i found out that there is a difference between importing to the stage, and importing to the library... [URL] I've placed both picture close of each other and if you look closely, you'll notice that one of them is losing some resolution. Both picture come from the same file, a png. The picture imported to the stage is sharper than the one imported to the library. is there a way to import that picture to the library without losing any resolution?
View 5 Replieslove the way CS4 has a nice media converter so you can instanly import FLV files but what I have recently found is that the voice of my videos all go out of sync when inputted into flash but are fine if I play then direct from my hard drive. If I import the file in CS3 and convert them directly in CS3 then the voices are all fine. Because i'm using many transparent .png images I have to use CS4 because CS3 adds a nice jagged edge when these are rotated.

All I want to do is have Flash play a single video based on the URL specified in an XML file. I am using the default Flash video player.
I go to File -> Import -> Import Video, and then click on the "Already deployed to a web server" button, and type in the path to an XML file.

View 1 RepliesI've been trying to import 258 PNGs into Flash. It gets up to around 200, +/- 1-2, and anything after that has "Bitmap not loaded" were the thumnail image should be in the library.
My computer is running 64 bit Vista with 4gb of ram.
I have a swf presentation with 28 pages. Each page contains a swf movie. It was originally done in 2005 with Flash Studio MX 2004 . In 2005 I imported a swf movie to each page and it all worked perfectly. The filesize was small and exe-filesize was 1,2 MB. Now when I have done small modifications to the swf in Flash CS4 and I try to import it to the main fla then it imports dozens of bitmaps and other stuff. After adding just that one swf exe-filesize is 5 MB and the swf is not even working. it is just a still.
Why canīt I just add the swf like before and it will work? I canīt/donīt want to do the loadmovie-thingy because this exe will go to a client who will share it over and over in their network. Once the file has external files it will be unusable immediately. It has to be in one file just like before. Do I have to go back to Flash Studio MX 2004 to make my modifications if I need to have just one file? Flash CS4 canīt import SWF directly anymore?
I have been making flash titles with a program called Mix FX. Unfortunately it will only save the files as projectors, swf and html files which I cannot use as a banner for my website. So is there any way that I could import a swf into flash so I can save it as a gif?
View 6 RepliesI have a legacy AS2 swf that I don't want to rewrite in AS3 but I need to improve upon it to play video, and I'd prefer to use the AS3 video playing mechanisms.
Ideally I can build an AS3 movie that just takes a string param of the movie location and plays it. I'd load this AS3 swf into my AS2 movie and pass in the strings for the urls as necessary.
What I'm working on is a navigation bar populated by an XML document. I'm working from an existing navigation bar while I learn, and the existing bar has a menu, and when clicked each button has a sub menu. I'm trying to remove the submenu so that when you click the navigation bar button, you go to the address defined in the XML. So far I've got everything working so that there is no sub menu drop down, and when you click a button, you are taken to a URL defined in the actual flash AS file.
I can't seem to get the AS file to call on the XML file to the get a URL from it though. How do I tell the AS file to call a variable from the XML document? I know I have the correct Node path because it works in a second AS file.
I am trying to create a SWC library for use in my Flash AIR project. I have created a seperate FLA called SceneLibrary and followed the steps defined here:[URL]..to create a new SWC component.

In my code i then go import FirstScene (this is auto completed by Flash Dev) It seems a bit weird to me that the path to this class would simply be

View 1 RepliesI have a PowerPoint presentation that has video included and need to recreate it in Flash. I have the video in WMV format and am thinking the best way to have the video play in the flash presentation is to "Embed video in SWF and play in timline" especially since I have to add text and image effects. Or is there a better way to do this?
I'm also having a hard time importing the video especially due to the Flip4Mac WMV Player putting a watermark in the video. Is there a way that I can put use Actionscript to play the video at the beginning (and end) of the Flash presentation and then play the rest of the Flash slideshow?
i have a problem with flash. i have a psd file which i create my logo on, and now i wanna copy the text over to flash to animate, i found out it was copy out as a layer, not the text only itself.
it is the same as with the shapes that i have created in photoshop, is there anyway that i can copy to flash with these problems? if i am able to copy and trace in flash. how can i go about it?
I wanted to know how I can import an FLV into my running swf file. I want to create a player that will play an FLV, and I wanted to know a couple of things.
What requirements do I have for my server? Would flash MX be able to create a swf that can load an FLV into an MC within it?
The point is that I want to see if I do not have to do it manually, (Import it into the FLA file, then export SWF to be played later, etc, etc.)
I got a XFL file, its library files and AS files in a directory.I would like to use Flash Builder 4(FB) for editing AS files, running the compiled SWF and profiling.When I created a New->ActionScript project in FB, I could edit the AS files but didn't know how to link the XFL file and run them.When I created a New->Flash Professional Project, I was prompted for a XFL file, and although the chosen XFL file and the AS files are in a same directory, the AS files are not automatically included in the project. I couldn't find a way to add exiting files in the project either.

View 6 Repliesso i've just been learning flash and i'm really enjoying it, i have got to a point when i want to import sound but when i do. i get the following message...
