I have a swf file. I don't have the flash file that goes with it. It is nothing but a holder for an flv or some flash-like movie format, and I can't extract it via importing, so all I get is blank frames. I just want to make it loop without paying hundreds for a swf decompiler.

What I am trying to do is to force MC's to press each other down after loading content.I have MC1, MC2, MC3 Each MC has dynamic text box with function content_txt.autoSize = true;� and each one is loading text content from XML files.Is there any way to force MC2 to go down, under MC1, depending of the size of loaded text in MC1? Something like: MC2._y = MC1.height + someNumberOfPixels

View 4 RepliesI'm loading a text file and based on the settings in that, I need to change which radio button in a group is selected.
My structure is three buttons to a group. One button has an instance name of rb1 and the values are 1,0,-1.
I know to get the values I need the radiobuttonGroup, but I'm not having much luck setting the values.
rb1.value=0; // does not work
Is there way force the browser to retain previously viewed FLV files? I've noticed using the normal netstream set-up that even if you've fully loaded and viewed a video it will have to load it again from scratch each time you come back to it. Shouldn't the file be in the user's cache?
View 1 RepliesI am having problems with the images being smooth.I have edited the code throughout with forceSmoothing = true and _quality = best.It all works and looks smooth if I test the file in the preview window and if I run the HTML file. But as soon as I put the file under IIS the smoothing stops.All my flash players are v10+ . I have turned the IIS compression off but no luck.
View 1 RepliesI have a main page with a menu that loads into an MC a new MC according to which button is pressed.Now, the loading of the MC works fine but the MC loaded doesn't work because it gets stuck at the loading bar at the beginning of it.

I have a swf movie, which involves some classes and libraries stuff.
so now when i preload, flash will preload all those classes and MC with linkage 1st.
but i need flash to preload certain MC 1st, because i need it for my preloader's visual. Is there a way that i can force flash to preload the MC that i wanted 1st?
I do a lot of all Flash sites, and sometimes I have problems getting the latest update to show on everyone's machine because of temporary internet files. Is there a way to force people to re-download the SWF?
View 2 RepliesWhen I load an image into a dynamic textfield using the img tag, the text flows around that image. Which is ok for me. The text wraps to the right of the left aligned image. But is there some trick to only have it wrap about halve of the images height? So halfway down I would like to be able to force the rest of the text to continue below the image. Is there some trick to that? Or could/should I only add some break tags until the text is below the image?

I've made a nav bar using buttons, and have them working just fine for Up, Over, Down, and Hit. (okay, so hit isn't a state, but I'll count it is as the fourth one)Problem is, once clicked on and produces a change in the flash, I want the button to not return to the Up state, but to visually be different so you can tell you are in that section.First problem is I can't for the life of me think of what that state is called. (Makes it hard to search for, and my poor little brain is fried right now.)Second problem is, can I force a button to not go back to up state? (either the over or down state would work fine).Or do I have to detect the click and then make a call to swap out the button file for the relevant section?

I have a slide show swf file in AS3 that gets the paths froman XMlL file. The problem is that I change the XML file every dayand unless a viewer empties their cache, they get the old slides.There is a technique where you add ?mathRandom() code at theend of the XML path inside the .swf file, but from all I have readand believe, this only adds to ones cache and could irresponsiblyfill a viewers cache.Does anyone know a way to use actionscript 3 inside the .swffile to force a reload of the XML file if the browser has beenopened for the first time?
View 1 RepliesIn the constructor, is there a way to force load variables. Essentially, I have a list of variables set through the component inspector. I would like to load these variables from the constructor. Currently, the variables are null when the constructor runs.
View 1 RepliesI am writing a program in AS3 that gradually draws a line following some points on a bitmap. Firstly I draw the bitmap on the screen ( load into a sprite, add the loader to the sprite and the sprite to the screen) Then I draw the line on it segment by segment.( add an empty Sprite to the screen and then do lots of lineTos)Sometimes my line drawing process goes wrong and I was hoping to see where this happens, but Flash Player 10 seems to have some clever optimisation, so that it waits to put the display on the screen until after it has calculated all of the sections of the lines. This means that if it goes wrong it never displays the picture, and I cannot see what is going on. This is very frustrating when I use the debugger in Flash as it does not even refresh the screen when it reaches a break point how to turn this optimisation off and force it to draw stuff onto the screen as it is calculated.

View 1 RepliesI have an app w/ a login screen. When the user hits "enter", the state changes to "login" & a child component is triggered to load (though the child stays invisible at the moment). The child contains many functions that the user needs upon logging in (ie their screenname & settings are retrieved from a database). The following is included in 'Parent':
<local:comp id="localComp" includeIn="login" includeInLayout="false" visible="false"/>
<mx:Button label="login" click="currentState='login'"/>
<mx:Button label="logout" click="currentState='Default'"/>
My problem is when a user logs out (state changes to 'Default') & then logs back in (state changes back to 'login') the child doesn't get "triggered" again & the functions w/in the child don't reload. Is there a way to force my child to refresh?
Note: While it would be easier to just move the child's functions to the parent it is complex...I moved these functions to the child to make it easier to follow
UPDATE: I even tried adding an "exitState" to my state:
<s:State name="login" exitState="removeElement(localComp)" />
This doesn't work either, as I get an error: "RangeError: Index 0 is out of range."
UPDATE: Even though you are allowed to call a child's function from a parent, my problem is that the child needs to be "created" in order to not show errors. It makes no sense to me why the flex team would make something like removing & adding children so complicated.
I'm using an iFrame in a Flex 3 project. The problem is that if the user opens my site in a small browser window, they don't get scrollbars. How can I solve this problem? Is there a way to force the browser to put up scrollbars?
If I set the main app to horizontalScrollPolicy="on" verticalScrollPolicy="on" or to "auto", then as you scroll down, the iFrame is stuck to the top of the browser window and obscures the content.

I'm working on a sort of AutoComplete component and faced one problem. When you create a new instance of a component, fill it with data - everything seems to be ok. When user types a letter in the inputField (and filter accepts one or few records) - everything goes alright, BUT if the first time user types a wrong letter (filter returned 0 records) - I'm getting a null-pointer exception.
This component is based on ComboBox. I have some thoughts about that: I suppose that the dropdown is not being created at time, any ideas on how to force my autoComplete to create it? I know 1 way - copy/paste some incapsulated code from ComboBox class .. but it would be too many of it .. I'm looking for a better solution.
I need to know how it's possible to force playing a video in fullscreen mode?
Fullscreen is in most of the cases a function by ActionScript and is triggerd with a user action, like mouse click or double click.
The other way is to force playing a video in the mobile devices native player, like youtube does. I have no clue how this approach is realized.
