I am migrating from Flash MX to Flash CS 5. One of the most annoying things so far about the changes is that whenever I open a file - it opens a tab - How can I stop this? I was able to stop this in Photoshop CS but there does not seem to be that option in Flash CS

View 3 RepliesI am migrating from Flash MX to Flash CS5 Pro. Is there a way to load a movie into the flash player and play it to a viewer without installing the adobe server software and the price that goes with it? Is there a way to just have the movie file stored on the server and just get the flash player to call the file and buffer it?
View 5 RepliesIm trying to open a .fla i got from the internet. Its from 2004 and in flashMX format.
On opening it flash gives an "unexpected file format" error.
Is this a corrupt file or isnt it possible to use this? If the latter, is there a way to convert a .fla from MX format to cs5.5?
I have FLASH MX now, can I buy an upgrade edition?
View 1 RepliesSo I have recently aquired Flash CS4 and the Quicktime Export is completely different from any version before.I create a lot of 3-4 minute shorts in Flash and have always enjoyed the ease of QT export, but when I export with CS4 I get all kinds of ghosting, even on 5-10 second clips so breaking up the fla file's scenes is no help.After doing a lot of online research I see a few people have similar problems, but no concrete explanations or solutions.Has Flash-to-Quicktime compatability been disabled?I see that the "Quicktime Movie" export options is not available, only the "Quicktime" export, which yields inferior results. Since I export to the web and for dvd I don't want to have to export PNG sequences and rebuild the soundtrack, but is there simply no longer quality compatability between the two programs?Do I need to ditch Flash for Toon Boom?
View 8 RepliesI've got a few encoded high definition videos that are now .flv files and I'm wondering which is the best option to choose when importing the .flv file into my Flash project? I'm looking for fastest loading/streaming with best quality to be the result. If I choose a streaming option like progressive download from a web server, would the choice be dependent on the type of server the file(s) are hosted on? I'm using Flash Professional 8.
View 3 RepliesI have recently upgraded to Flash Player 10.2 (correct version for Windows 7) which will operate satisfactorily on BBC/ITV players in small (part) screen mode. Whenever I click for full screen, the screen goes completely black (blank), though the sound remains. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player 10.2, twice, but to no avail. Has anyone come across this problem and/or can anyone tell me a solution? All other functions on my laptop (Dell XPS) seem to be fine.
View 4 Repliesif there was a way to provide an option to view a flash site in html.
The site is currently built in flash, but have had feedback from people trying to view the site that they need flash player 10, is there any way to have a link option on the page that asks you to download the latest flash player, to view the site in html (html site has also been developed).
I played around with the new tween tool in CS4, and it seems that the difference is I dont see the tween arrow anymore in the timeline; and there is an easing in the property that has been added. How this has changed from the old concept finally? I see this just like putting some icing on the cake, and nothing would wow me to use this tool.

[Code]....
I've got in over my head trying to learn programming, but love it.How would you teach a designer to migrate from design to object oriented programming?
My interest is AS3 in Flash IDE, but any advice is welcome. Looking for a full explanation.
I start flash as3 project on Flash CS3, about one year ago. After compile it on CS4, I get this error (on Russian):
[Code]...
But I get this error only in browser (FlashPlayer10), if I run inside Flash CS4 - all works fine. And I get this error then the MovieClip with TextArea added on stage.
I have an Actionscript project that was building using Flash cs3. Project have TextFields (Text engine: classic text, Text type: dynamic text). Since I upgraded to CS5 and published, I find out that my text not rendered. I use Font family Tahoma. And I just set Font family to Tahoma again and published. After that manipulations my text start render. But when somebody else try to open my project using same Flash CS5 IDE and just published that project again without any modification - none of my text is rendered again. And that going round in circles.

View 1 RepliesIn Flash Professional CS4, I get "migration issue" warnings when I use mouse/keyboard input handler names such as onMouseDown, onKeyUp, etc., even though I have added event listeners for them. These names are perfectly legal for functions, but since these were automatically fired in ActionScript 2.0, we are now (albeit sensibly) warned that their use is no longer automatic in AS3.I understand the purpose of the warnings, but they aren't useful for me. I want to suppress these warnings, but without suppressing any other warnings, which I generally do find useful.I found a flex-info.xml style document in the Flash User Data dir.[userdatafolder]/Adobe/Flash CS4/en/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/FlexInfo.xml.However, this file contains a disappointing comment: <!-- Flash does not support most flex-config options. -->, and doesn't seem to respond to my directives even after restarting flash. Found an issue "Erroneous, annoying "Migration issue" warnings" on Adobe bug tracker. A fix is confirmed for the Flex SDK, but no mention of Flash...

The icon has a white circle with a line through it and if I try to start it it says:You can't open the application Adobe Flash CS5.5.app" because it's not supported on this type of Mac.I have a Core i7 iMac with 8gb ram and a Radeon 5750 with 1gb of vram running 10.6.8.Can that not be enough to run Flash?
View 1 RepliesI don't know what happened but a few days a go when I tried running flash professional it wont start.
It shows the "Loading screen" when it's about to open the main windows it hangs. It shows the main windows all white. And mouse cursor is "processing", when I try to close windows says the program it's not responding.
I tried Unnistalling the flash profesisonal and installing it again but no changes.
Last time I worked with flash was January 23, 2012. It was working fine, but this morning I tried running the program and it won't start. Same with encore, it just doesn't start. Is this due to a windows update? Does anybody know of a workaround to this problem?
View 1 RepliesI am migrating a bunch of projects which were built in Flash Pro to Flash Builder....The basic structure of those projects were an FLA which has a DocumentClass. That DocumentClass referenced various items on the stage...
Is there any way to duplicate this in Flash Builder? I know I can just embed the swc or swf and then access items via ThatDisplayObject.itemToAccess, but calls from outside will no longer work. I.e. if this project is loaded by a container, which then calls SubProject.itemToAccess...Or must I change all the mappings, or set getters/settings on the new Flash Builder project so that outside calls will access the items?
I've imported a gif file into flash, traced it into the bitmap, made 24 symbols from 25 I wanted, I've distributed them into timeline, made a simple animation from few layers just for fun, when I made a new symbol it was from the first frame, only there was possible to see all graphic and select a new symbol, however now when I click on the first frame the last part of graphics that I want to convert to symbol is grey and I'm not able to select it (picture 4, the small grey stains), however with a selection tool it is possible to change a shape of the "stain". Other miracle I don't understand is the magenta square in left up corner, picture3 (it occurs only from 2nd frame), in library no symbol has this square.

View 4 RepliesI'm tweaking a flash website for a freind and he wants to have some videos play from a page. There are 25 files and ideally I want to achieve the 'Lightbox' look so that the browser window dims and the video plays over the top. After looking around I haven't found any easy solutions.What is the best way to achieve this, bearing in mind I shall have all these buttons on a page and want to have the video 'float' on top of the actual site?I'm relatively new to this although a long standing flash user when it comes to animation etc - not great on scripting.
View 1 RepliesI'm having a problem with Flash crashing when I try to start it. I first noticed the problem when I had a fairly simple scrolling text fla that I tried to open but after a few seconds of the document being open spinning beach ball (Mac) would come up and a few seconds later that app crashes. I've tried to open three separate Flash documents as well as just opening the program and making a new document. Every time, the result being the spinning beach ball and the app crashes after about 5 seconds.I've updated all my Adobe software. What else can I try? Deleting preferences, if so,where are those located?
View 2 RepliesI have a few problems with Adobe Flash. Please refer to this image: [URL]. First, I would like to make a movieclip begin somewhere else (so that I may jump to it later). But when I preview what I currently have in my timeline, my movie clip just flashes on and off with Layer 1 (the image on Layer 1 flashes too), rather than what should be a delay of nothing (but Layer 1 flashing) until frame 20 is reached, at which point the movie clip on Layer 3 should play. Secondly, I do not wish for the movie clip to stop at the end of the second keyframe (even though it's currently not really even playing). How can I have it play all the way out?
View 2 RepliesI've bought the new Adobe Web Premium CS5 and I have big problems with the Flash Professional CS5.
First time the application started correctly, but didn't start next time. I always had to remove all application settings in "Documents and Settings/user/Local Settings/Application Data/Flash CS5", what is already not very good.
