Most of the other Adobe apps have a "Workspaces" directory located in the user preferences directory but I can't find any info on where Flash stores it's workspaces files. I need to copy and install the same workspace across multiple computers - does anyone know how to do this for Flash?
View 3 RepliesI've created my own Workspace definition in Flash CS4 with all the windows arranged just the way I like them. How can I copy this Workspace definition to another computer so I can have the same environment to work in? I've looked in the C:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Flash CS4CommonConfigurationWorkspace folder and all I see are files for the default Workspace definitions (Classic.xml, Designer.xml etc.); unfortunately, I don't see a file for my new definition. Was hoping I could just find an xml file for my new definition and copy it another computer.
View 1 RepliesI am on a MAC with two (2) user profiles.
When I launch Flash builder, I am getting a "workspace in user" message, and Flash Builder keeps prompting me to choose a workspace and it's pointing to the other user's profile.
I keep pointing it to my workspace under "my documents" and I check the following box:
Use this as the default and do not ask again.
However, every time I open up Flash builder, it's asking me again? Is there any way to stop this? Like, is there some file I have to delete or something?

But if I load an image from the app workspace, everything works fine (I see the image and Jquery works). Is this a policy problem? The error says that is a "null object reference" problem, but this can't be true...

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to arrange panels inside the Flash workspace, to have one panel at the top, wide 100% (the timeline panel). Then below it, have 2 columns: main window panel on the left and properties on the right.
From what I experienced, it is not posible with docking. Either you must have all 3 panels 100% wide, or you must have 2 columns from top to bottom, and within each of those 2 columns, arrange as you wish.
A web channel streaming service streams to a certain IP range, it only checks the IP in example.com/cmd.php?id=xxx (channel number) and outputs an rtmpe stream URL, nothing else.How do I trick it to get my local URL instead of the one on their server? I have considered squid proxy, but is there some way to do it with a firefox plugin or greasemonkey script?
Edit:I will try to specify:It's a streaming service from an ISP and cable provider. They stream for free to people on their IP's. On their webtv page, which is called webtv.example.com, there is a flash player. If you are not on an IP from their ISP, you can't stream anything but the test channel.When you try to change channel via. javescript:videoplayer_changechannel(xxx) it makes this HTTP request:
[URL]
If you are on one of their IP's you will get an RTMP URL, like this:
[URL]
This is what the flash player requests, and if it get's this response it load the channel requested. There is no HTML on the php page, just the URL. Note that the rtmp URL is static.If you are not on one of their IP's it will return a random sentence (something stupid, the programmers having fun).I wan't to trick the flash player into getting the right value, even though it's not on one of the ISP's IP's.
I have a flash application. One of the options is to copy a pdf onto the users desktop, but I can not seem to get it to work.

So far it does not function.
View 1 RepliesI'm starting to learn flash with AS 3. I can handle flash quite ok at the moment, but now I'm learning AS3.However, sometimes when I start Flash, the workspace "Actions" is larger than my screen. This means that a part of my script is not readable. #$Q^$!! I've tried everything to resize it, but didn't find a solution. I've flash professional for mac. I've tried switching 'workspaces' , try to move the workspace in another position. It doesn't work 'cause I can't drag the space above my screen.

View 2 RepliesI changed a layer entry of my Flash file by moving around various elements within the layer. I sitll have the original file, too.

View 5 Repliescan you copy the armature layer and past it on the same layer to make longer?
View 2 RepliesHow does one select layers then bring them into a new MovieClip with their artwork and functionality etc intact.
I have a load of layers which together form a map with animations that run on it. A static key with a few buttons runs the animations on the map. I need to pan/zoom this map and as such need to package all these layers that form the map up into something that can be referred to in the coding for the pan and zoom functions.
I created a new layer in my timeline, called it MapPanZoom, then went Insert>new>movieClip.
I now need to remove the maps layers from the timeline and into the timeline for the movieClip I just created. How is this done ?
Leaves behind the static key that sits outside of the map, when a button in the key is clicked, I hope to see it run the animation on the map, and have a user able to zoom and pan the map whilst it runs.
I tried selecting the layers then edit>copy, then opening MapPanZoom movieClip from Library and edit>paste, nothing happened. Planned to delete the layers if it had worked out of the original scene1.
I have a layer with a bullet (graphic symbol) that flys out from the right and stops mid- stage, I am trying to copy this layer and have it do the same thing 3 times, to make 4 bullets that will be the BG for 4 text buttons I will make later, but I want to stagger their timing so they go with a sound effect.I am essentially trying to do exactly like the Duplicate Layer command in After Effects. Is there anything like this in Flash? I have even tried to do the more time consuming process of dragging another instance of my symbol from the library, but I keep getting the message "Do you wish to replace the existing tween target object", which also happens if I try to copy and paste the symbol.
View 3 RepliesI have a banner as the header on a website. The file is about 150K. I want the banner to load (relatively) instantly (without the animations). My current solution is to take a screenshot of the first frame and create a preloader that just displays the screenshot. A really simple solution to this would be a setting (or something) that just caches the first frame as a bitmap and loads that first, then displays it until the entire file is loaded.
View 1 RepliesThis has been a complaint since CS4. Maybe you finally fixed it in CS5.5? I'm in CS5, and cannot copy a group of layers with the "copy frames" option as I would with any other layer(s). So a bone tool animation I've done on the main timeline cannot be copied and turned into a mc symbol. A simple, basic process. I can export my MC and import, then it comes in as stills, increases file size, not editable. I'm sure the answer is "plan ahead." The answer should be, "Of course you can do that, that's always been a normal method of working in Flash." Flash is dieing as a web tool, and falling short as an animation tool.
View 1 RepliesI'm building an iPad app with some stories and I have an animation that runs when each story is opened. I created the first animation at 30fps and it works great on an Android tablet and in the Air debug launcher, but when I compile it for the iPad the transitions are very jumpy. It acts like it's only running at 5fps on the iPad.

View 28 RepliesI am working on a character that I will animate with bones. I painted the parts (left them as vector shapes), kept them all separate from each other on different layers and not touching. Added bones to each part. Flash made the armature layers each time. This is all inside a movie clip.I now want to copy and paste each part with bones/armature into a new movie clip so I can make mini animations, like a walk cycle, for example with out having to keep redoing all of my work. Somehow - I did this once.
I selected, copied, switched into the empty movieclip pasted it and there is was - armature layer, bones with object. All there. Moves fine When I tried to do it with the next part on a new layer, it just copied the vector shape with no bones. It is making me crazy. How do I copy and paste or duplicate an armature? I did it once, so I can be done...I included screen shots of the parts and the new movie clip - the body went with the bones (automatically made an armature layer when pasting) the leg did not.Attachments:creen shot 2010-01-01 at 2.51.20 PM.png (38.1 K)
