View 2 RepliesI'm wanting to link a flash animation to a page on my site. These are the steps i have taken so far Open flash , create New symbol (choose button) named it flashflashbutton Then still in symbol section, File import.
I then import a flash animation I made .swf.Now when I import it the animations frames stretch across the up, hit, ect. I am sure this isn't the correct way to do it.How do I import an animation and put all the keyframes (hence the animation ) just into the up mode.
As atm when i go to scene view, open librarary and drag it into scene view. Then test movie, It plays one frame if i hover over it it plays another frame.I assume the answer to this is sumhow put all the frames in the up mode, and another anim on the hit mode?
I have created a short animation in Flash CS4 which has one button with a URL link. the button shows up on frame 217, and on that frame I added the following action script:
[Code]...
however, the 'hit zone' for the button shows up from frame 1 of the animation. is there a way of getting the hit zone to start when the button shows up?
I am literally at the end of my wick with this one! Here's the skinny, so to speak:
home.swf
products.swf
button line mc
[code]........
Trying to figure out how to add a link that will open up in a new window using Action Script for something at work. Have barely used Flash so I am totally lost. People at work gave me a file with a blue box that is in its own layer, but I don't understand where to put the link at. I know I have to use Action Script 2.0 and go to the Actions palette.
View 1 RepliesI have one website that I am working on that has a flash video logo. The only thing they want me to change about the video is to make it a link to the index page of the site. I can not figure out for the life of me how to do this. Could someone please lay the steps out in a simple fashion for me. I have found a few tutorials online but none of them were for CS5.5 and none of them have all the steps for the version they are for.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to make a link from my flash .swf to call a JavaScript from the html document. It looks like this:
thumb2.onRelease = function() {
getURL("javascript:callArticle('http://shop.examplelink.com/[mySessionID]/Grobstrickpullover--12378d1a30211.html');");
}
Does this looks correct? Are these ' ' symbols placed correct? The problem is that someone else is doing the connection to actually pick up the JavaScript callArticle function, so this code is all that I do.

Like an image, I can do it like this:
<a href="http://stackoverflow.com"><img src="imagefile.png" /></a>
I've tried to put <a></a> around the Flash HTML code, but it does not work.
EDIT: I found a solution. I've just put some JavaScript into the code.

View 2 RepliesI'm building a web site for a client. He asked me to make an animation on the homepage to show at start a world image / a globe (just the company logo) that "expands", like if it opens (from behind) into a plain map (which is another image) of the world and then show a text over it. I know and develop in PHP / MYSQL / Photoshop / JQuery effects/plugin but sadly (are we sure ? :P ) I know nothing about flash and actionscript.
So I was wondering if you could guide me to what to do, where should I start?Consider I video edit since 2003ish so I'm not lost here, I was thinking making a video about it and the show it on the page but doesn't feel like a good solution considering that the last frame should be static and more importantly the file size!. Is at least possible to do it in Flash?
I have an advantage over this situation though: I learn fast, so speak up :) what should I do?
I am trying to make a button work in a Flash cs4 file using as2. It is a template I am modifying from DreamTemplate. I don't know what I am supposed to change and exactly what I should change that unknown code to Here is the code I have:

As you can see I have tried to replace the url that was in the quotes and it does not work.
I've set up a test page in Flash:-
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.resource = this.firstChild.childNodes[2].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;[code]...
how do I make 'link' clickable in the flash file?
I currently made a flash animation. the background is the only one that is animated and scrolls to the right. But my problem is why it lags? Is there any way to not make it lag? here's a link of the swf file you can view: http:[url]......I tried it on a high spec pc and it does not lag when it is in normal screen(640x480) but when I view it in full screen it lags. There are no scripts or anything in this file just animation.
View 1 RepliesI'm learning flash animation and am wondering once I save the flash file to a dvd format, how does the end-user navigate when they put the dvd into their TV? Do I need to design and incorporate a menu for the end-user? If so, how does the TV remote control navigate through this menu that was created on a Mac computer?

photos going up and going down, somethig like that.
I need to make a little animation in Flash.
So I would like to make few Swf's succeed. I found, as a start, this little piece of code in the Flashkit board. [URL]
Code:
var externalSWFs:Array = new Array(
"swfs/ADVAllDemoFLASHv1.0.swf",
"swfs/File2.swf",
[Code].....
This code is ok to call many Swf's, but not to place them at a special timing. I would like to have a Timing control on them, like:
Mc01.swf plays X sec, then stop. Then Mc02.swf plays X sec, then stop. Then Mc03.swf plays X sec, etc...
I need to know (fairly soon), how to make the .swf file i have linked into a page open in flash player, not an explorer window.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to make a text link within a scroll box jump to another frame within the same Flash file. Is this possible without having to make a button or movie clip? For some reason if I insert an object like a movie clip or button in the scroll box, it appears in a different area when I publish the file so I can't use that option for links.
I need to be able to highlight the text and then program it to jump to another frame label.

View 1 RepliesI built an animation with actionscript 3 that I want to use as a welcome page for a website.I put the animation in DW cs3 and it works but i don't know how to make it "clickable" to link it to my website's index!
View 8 RepliesI played around quite a bit and came up with exactly the effect I was looking for. Basically a movie clip with floating icons that come in and out of the stage. All was done in actionScript 3.0 and Code Snippets. There is no timeline per se, using the classic timeline view it is only one keyframe, the animation lasts for about 45 seconds.
I want the animation to loop continueously. Even in the HTML output I did click Loop Cont. under Publish settings. That does not work either.
I made an animation using Adobe Flash,but I want to make the flash animation file like .exe (which i did by using adobe air)But I have a problem!I want to make it to appear on the desktop not in a frame.I mean to be like the Bonzi Buddy.I hope you understand me(my english is very bad and I'm sorry for thaht)
View 2 Replies1. The old main logo was not as wide as the new one, so now the entire new one is not clickable (to take you back to the main page). How do I fix this?
2. For the life of me I can't figure out how to make text (or a button if need be) link to a specific flash frame. If you look on the site, there are a couple of spots under "What We Do" that I need clickable to take them to the Contact Us page.
I have seen this done before but cant find any tuts on how to do it. Or even any knowledge on how to program it. What I want to do is use streaming video ini 3 flash banners that are linked together as the background of a site. Also I would like to take the standard banner size 728x69, 250x300 and 160x200 and have the animation run between them all.
