After installing Adobe Flash CS4 and saved some of my files in that application they suddenly can't open anymore!
I've tried to re-install both CS3 and CS4 and none of them will open my .fla anymore :-(
I've even tried to format my entire computer, installed it again but still no luck.
Therefor I have re-coded my entire web-site from scratch once again (pheww!) but I need all the text which is saved in my .fla (or .swf).
Can you extract text from a regular text field and place it in another like:
textfield1.text = textfield2.text.line[3].char[3..5] or word[3..5]
what is the syntax to do that?
We've got a client who wants to update an existing flash course and they want to move all the text from the existing static text field into xml.Is there any way to have flash somehow export all that text?I suppose I could write a function that executes on every frame and traces out the html text of every field on each frame and then just copy and paste that and wrap the xml tags around it...Also, the client wants to be able to make updates without having to know any html. Is the best way to do that to create a little RTE exe that they can use to "page" through the nodes, make their updates and use something like SWF Studio to write a new xml file?

View 1 RepliesI'm using an auto complete component and a labelFunction so that user have the ability to search by their name or id. Once the search is completed I'd like to extract the data to a query.
The only problem is that I only need the name or id for the query not both, so I'd like to pull from just the id variable...
Currently if the user types - Joe or if they type - 13
Both would return a result of Joe - 13 via the auto complete component.

I'm developing an application in Flex 3.5 for video tutorials, which uses a lot of Captivate 4 (AS3) videos (>200). In the front end, the user can navigate thorough the videos in a menu structure. In the administration part, the admins can upload more videos and organize them into the menu structure. Since we have more than 200 Captivate videos, we wanted to build in a search functionality into the fronted, which would be based on the text contents of the Captivate videos. The idea is: every time the admin uploads a new Captivate video into the system, an index will be created based on the contents of the video.
My question: how can I extract the text captions of a Captivate video using Flex or rather ActionScrip 3? (I know, there is an Export/Import function of Captivate, but I would like to access those texts dynamically from Flex.)

The str might be like this, But i need to get the value of "conn" and "fileId" from the string.
I've no experience in action script and just need to find where the files that are referenced in this script are located on the server. I believe the referenced files are SWFs and it appears that the URLs are dynamically written, but I can't crack the code.

View 3 RepliesI have a load of FLA files with large libraries of vector graphics. Is there a way of forcing Flash to create an export(jpg or swf)of all the graphics in a library without having to manually drag them onto the stage or into a scene before publishing or exporting them? I'm thinking there might be an SDK or utility or something that can read fla files and export everything programmatically.

View 1 RepliesThere is an .fla file that has a sound wave in it's library. However I do not have this sound wave saved on my computer so I can not edit or open this sound in another application. I was wanting to know if its possible to extract this *.wav file from out of the fla library? I did some research and they said to goto export movie and export it as an *.wav file. However I tried this it exported the whole fla file as one big *.wav dud. I tried to play it and nothing happened which makes sense.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to extract images from flash on the following web-site: [URL]
I noticed that every time I click on "Next image", an images is requested from sever. Sample URL is [URL]
So, this URL is exactly what I need, but I don't know how to extract all these URLs from the .swf file I have. I don't have any experience with flash, but I think that URLs should be in the .swf file. I tried "grep '110206os_o_003_T1C1_2pw26' adspage_slider-2.swf", but didn't get any result :(((
Is it possible to programmatically extract image files from a SWF file using C#? If so, how would I go about doing that? I know this question doesn't have a lot of detail but I'm just getting started on this and know very little about Flash.
View 2 RepliesIs there a way using C# to extract the ActionScript from a .SWF file? I know it can be done as there are third party command line tools that will do it, but I need to do it programmatically using C#. I'm open to using third party libraries (free or paid) as long as they are from reliable vendors, but I haven't been able to find any .NET libraries that will do it, just command line or Windows programs so far.
EDIT: Are there any options other than SWFTools? I'm a little hesitant to include unmanaged code in my application.
Does anyone know how to extract a class reference from an SWC file? I know I can right click / "Go to definition", and view the class definition. I need to extract these for each class in an SWC. Can anyone provide a method to do so automatically?
View 3 RepliesI found a solution on net which suggests, to copy a bitmap from flash and paste in photoshop. I don't want to go for such a solution as in past I have seen such things result into bad quality as ctrl-c might copy as per the resolution etc etc. (Link to this solutionI also don't want to go for tools available on net which promise to extract data.

The ultimate goal is to create a dynamic slideshow with a variable length, depending on how many pics were submitted by the user. Since the associative array object returned by loadVars does not share the "length" property of indexed arrays, my guess is that the values need to be converted into a new indexed array before being able to use them in the slideshow.

View 2 RepliesI am developing PDF to e-book converter which will run on a server.I need to programmatically extract embedded fonts from PDF file to finish the project.Now I am able to extract images and text, but to display content in the Flash Player precisely I need the fonts to be extracted from PDF and compiled to SWF to be loaded by Flex application at run time.
I am wondering if it's possible, as such tool as pdf2swf.exe from SWFTools is able to do this. I have decompiled the swf file produced by the tool and there were fonts embedded.The extracted fonts will be used for displaying the same content from PDF file only, just in Flash player. So i think it will not be any rights violation? Moreover, people who will use the converter have all rights for the PDF files content.
So I see next workflow:
1. Call pdf2swf.exe to produce SWF file with fonts embedded;
2. Call some tool (Which one?) to parse previous SWF to SWFs with separate fonts.
3. Load the SWFs with fonts to Flex application at run time to correctly display content.
