I'm wondering if there is a proper way to upgrade from Flash CS4 to CS5. What I did was just open existing CS4 project in CS5 and saved it as CS5. It seems to work but I'm wondering: did I miss something in the transition? Do I need to make additional modifications for project to work better in CS5?

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if I could get your opinion on whether or not I should upgrade from Flash CS3 to CS4. I understand It has 3D and IK capabilities as well as what is supposed to be an improved IDE. But what other good reasons are there? I tend to code all my animations. I probably should take more advantage of the timeline. The work I do tends to be for clients in the music/tv industry, so I'm not doing hardcore database apps, well not yet anyway.

View 2 RepliesAfter our upgrade some of our streaming media files no longer stream... I have performed an flcheck on the files in question and they are returning the following error:
FLVCheck version 1.0 - Utility to validate flv and mp4 media files.Copyright (C) 2008 Adobe Systems Incorporated. [URL].. 10-08-13 15:49:07 Error: -31 Bad box hierarchy. Found a track childbox before track. At this point we have a large majority of the files that normally streamed quite normally and fine in 3.0 not streaming at all in 3.5 I hate to back out of the upgrade, but if we can not find a solution to this problem it will have to happen.

View 1 RepliesI finally tried validating my website at W3C, and naturally I got 300 or so errors
As I'm knocking them out, I noticed a lot of these are from the flash embeds. Currently I'm using the traditional method[code]...
Turns out even though it still works, the <embed> tags are no longer necessary and consequently will not validate.
Tried searching around but all I could find were some pretty vague tutorials and looking at sources is nothing short of Greek at this point.
Can I get an example or two of how to properly "embed" an swf?
I am writing an ActionScript class and I don't know where the standard place to put it is.In other words, where should I put the package in regards to the hierarchy? In flash.myname.mypackage? What is the standard naming convention? As you can probably tell, I haven't had a lot of experience writing ActionScript classes :)
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to replace instances created by dragging and dropping into a MovieClip through Flash's IDE with actual classes so I can add them to a game loop and have them as actual entities. In other words, I'm trying to create a streamlined way to allow developers to visually add their entities to a platforming engine I'm working on.
This is my third attempt at it and I'm completely stuck.The code below loops through a movieclip that contains an exported symbol with a class linked to it named MyEntity. However, it loses its extension to BaseClass and thus doesn't move when compiled.
It inherits: MovieClip > BaseClass > MyEntity. However when compiled with the IDE it ignores BaseClass and just does MovieClip > MyEntity.
My code is designed to find and store the position of MyEntity, remove it from the container movieclip, add a brand new instance of it (with the base being proper) then set that new instance to the same position of the original.
for ( var i:int = 0; i < LayerInIDE.numChildren; i++ )
{
// first we want to get all the display objects in the layer
// these are objects that were placed from within the Flash IDE (ie. dragged and dropped into the MovieClip
var original:DisplayObject = LayerInIDE.getChildAt( i );
[code]....
This does not work.
It outputs Game.entities::MyEntity [class MyEntity] false. MyEntity is a proper class and DOES extend from BaseClass. However, the issue is the IDE weirdly removes the reference to the base class - as if MyEntity never had a base class. I cannot seem to recreate it as getting the reference to the class also returns that MyEntity never had a BaseClass. However, if I type in var newEnt = MyEntity(); instead of getting the class name through getDefinitionByName it works normally and extends from BaseClass.I need it to extend from BaseClass as that is the main class all entities in my game engine require to use.
I didn't see anything posted on this, hopefully these questions aren't repeats. So, in the tutorial, it shows how to define globals, import XML, import CSS, and load some external files into movieclips. My questions are:
1. How do you control the play order of the imported .swfs? For example, if I load my movie border/bg and it has action, then the menu with action then the main image which also has an action, how do I set up the movie clips to play in order?
2. When I import my bg swf, how do I scale it to 100% but leave the rest of the items unscaled?
3. Can certain parameters of the DropShadowFilter that gets assigned to "filtersArray" be accessed to alter the distance (as an example) so specific params can be altered for different movie clips?
I will probably add to this. The tutorial was so useful that I am trying to relearn my methodology, but there are some gaps.
I have a CodeIgniter project and I made a back-office in Flex. I was wondering how I can implement the Flex project in my CodeIgniter since I'm working with routing I can't route to any directory. So there isn't a way to display the back-office.
View 1 RepliesI have Flash CS5.5 I just uploaded an swf with a few button instances I got the msg that I needed to update my Flash player so I did. After that when I went to test the swf I get no button cursors on any buttons in the swf. The buttons work when I press on them but there is no cursor. If I publish the file locally the cursors are there, I made a few different fla's with test buttons to make sure and they all do the same thing. The publishing settings are set for 10.2 , this seems to have happened once I got the new Flash player 11.3.

I have a sample XML file with two images. If I remove either of the items from the XML, it everything displays fine, but with 2 items in the XML, the first item doesn't show an image, but the second does (maybe the first is being attached in a position behind the second?)
I have set up a Flash Project to publish two FLAs simultaneously.However, when I click on "Test Project" I get the following error message:Quote:Cannot open a protected movie.However, when I publish each of these FLAs independently, I do not get the error message and the file publishes and runs with no problem.
