I have a sample fla file, but I can't find where to edit the scripting in it. Basically there are 2 buttons, each one going to a different URL. I can't figure out where to change the URLs they go to. I've looked literally everywhere in flash.

View 1 Repliesam a day 2 flash user and I have been trying to make a game, but for starters i want to make my character be able to move using arrow keys that includes showing the legs movement instead of a fixed image drifting across.There is one problem, when I press RIGHT arrow key , it goes fine, but when I press LEFT arrow key (rever direction) my character flips from point A to point B instead of facing left, i have been thinking maybe it's the frame problem, is it possible to tell flash to play the REVERSE moveclip

When I click one of the 4 buttons, the image related to that button has to move to the hightest position. And ofcourse the previous highest one should be the one under the new highest image. Well, I tried to fix the script, but for some reason it gets all confused and starts switching images, and sometimes none.
I have a movie clip called volumecontrolbackground_mc that has a gradient in it. on rollover I want it to change the color of the gradients and on roll out go back to the default values. Any pointers on how I would accomplish this? I have seen the methods where you create a new movie clip and fill it with a gradient but none where you modify a existing gradient.
View 1 RepliesI've created a graphic and have multiple instances of the graphic on the stage. I've recently decided to change the graphic to a movieClip. However, changing the original clip's type to movieClip doesn't apply the change to all instances that I've already placed on the stage; they're still all graphics.
The only way I've been able to fix it is by manually selecting each one and changing their instance behavior from 'graphic' to 'movieclip'. Is there a faster way to do this, be it a command or an actionscript code? Anything that doesn't require me manually changing each instance would be a huge time saver.
Whilst I did some flash YEARS ago, I am now needing to get back into it. And whilst I have a course booked, I need to do something now. I have downloaded a flash file with a mask from an image website. I want to double the size of the file, but the masking now only highlights part of the image.
View 6 RepliesI'm reletively new to flash, and am trying to modify a template and am running into a problem and I don't seem to know why Flash is acting so strange. I am going into a movie clip to edit the color of an item, and when I do so with a tint, it overrides any additional effects such as light, and text. The color appears almost as if it were just slapped on top of everything. When I edit the color in advanced mode, it is really a hit-or-miss to get the correct color, and will only modify when changing the offset RGB.
And also when doing this, the text gradually changes color, for example: there are 4 items in total that I want to edit the color of. Each item is a different colored box with text on the front (for a main Navigation of the website). --- The first item, the text will stay white. Gradually through the second and third items it starts to change, and by the fourth / last item, the text is completely blue. Is it possible for a portion of text to be connected somehow to an object within the animation in a movieclip? If so, is it possible to go inside and edit this? -the shape, animation, and text? Is there an easier way to change the color of an item inside a movie clip? I can supply additional information if needed.. files etc.
It is very simple to retrieve data from a database and display it inside a DataGrid. However, what are the current practices to push the changes in the DataGrid back to the database? One can achieve this by inserting a lot of meta information, however, it is very tedious and not reusable.

View 1 RepliesI've got a very basic fla file which actually worked on flash5 but it's no more working with flashmx 2004. A movie clip move from a position , let say A, to B, then to C.
I insert a stop(); action on B, so the movie stop. Inside the movie entitie I insert a button with the command play() (I have also try _level0.play() or nameofmovie.play())I expected that the movie continue playing from B to C but it does nothing..
I want to zoom in and out on an image (it's actually a thumbnale which pops up). Or if you want, to have a small image 'grow' to a larger formatI tried it with scaling + tween, but it is hardly a smooth transition.

I created a project w/a dynamic html scroll box on one page/spot on timeline. I want to use the same scroll box, but have it call a different .htm file for different content at a different part of my timeline.My problem is the file naming. I tried to just copy the entire scroller project I made and append a "_2" to all the file names, so that they wouldn't interfere with my original scroller in my main project, but that didn't work out.Is there anyway to duplicate the original scroller within my project and just have it call a different file?
