I have a flash file I've built with various buttons linked to my website. Strangley, the links work perfectly in live preview (ctrl+enter)
however when I save as a .swf file, export as movie or publish - the links no longer work!
I have this presentation that I decompiled using sothink. It is originally an swf file made from swishmax. I need to modify contents so I decompiled it to edit on Adobe Flash.. Problem is: some Sprite buttons are not working once exported.. This is a simple question and answer quiz test that once you select on the multiple choice and click the button to check your answer it tells whether your answer is correct or not. Here are some codes on it:

I'm working through Dreamweaver fairly well, and I'm now wanted to import Flash buttons I've created myself into Dreamweaver for a website I'm currently building, and it's here that I'm finding the problem. I have been to the 'get URL Function', but it says something about needing to link to a web page? But my problem is how can I link Flash Buttons to a web page, when my site is still being developed and not published? Do I have to publish first?
View 3 RepliesI have a lot of graphics and sounds in my library that are exported for Actionscript in Frame 1. I believe that because of the exported graphics, my preloader will not work. All I get is a white frame while the movie loads. How can you preload graphics that are exported for Actionscript?
View 2 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do is export a datagrid to a PDF, which is working fine except that it keeps dropping out the data of the 4th column every time. I've set breakpoints to make sure the data is still there and it shows up but when the PDF is created that whole column has no data in it.
ActionScript Code:
private function printPDF(event:MouseEvent):void{
this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, printPDF)
var PDFcolumns:Array = getPDFColumns(_dataGrid);
var resultsArray:Array = _dataGrid.dataProvider.toArray();
var pdf:PDF = new PDF(Orientation.PORTRAIT,Unit.MM,Size.LETTER);

I have a bunch of symbols defined inside of a .fla file which are exported for actionscript -- IE, given a class definition name. In this .fla file, there is one symbol that pretty much contains all of the other symbols. The definition names are basically used to locate each symbol so that I can wrap each symbol with appropriate functionality.Also, sometimes I want to create a new instance of the symbol, so that is nice. Anyway, here is an example of the code that finds children based on their class name, it works nicely:
Code:
public static function getChildByClass(target:DisplayObjectContainer, className:String):DisplayObject

I am new to Flash and ActionScript. I have been trying to put up a website, but I have run into one issue that is preventing me from having a functional page. The buttons do not work.I have set the instance names and converted things to symbols and so forth, but neither of the methods I have tried work.The first method I list below simply does not work, no errors listed, just no function.The second method I tried resulted in an error occurring whenever I clicked a button. The error was "ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property num not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value.[code]
View 2 RepliesI'm updating my website and my menu buttons have an animation on the mouseOver. A simple animated button with the "Up", "Over", "Down" and "Hit" keyframes.
www.brenda-nies.com will show the effect of my menu buttons and the effect I want to keep. Part of my updates are switching to AS3 and that's where my problem comes in. You can't see it on the website I gave you, but in my working file, when I test it (in IE8), everything starts out fine when I first rollover my button, the animation runs through it's cycle and stops. However, if I press down on the mouse button, the animation starts over. The same when I release the mouse button, the animation starts over. I want the animation to run through 1 cycle and stop, then stay stopped until I roll off the button.
I am trying to get my flash buttons working. When I click on them they open a new window and none of the graphics show up. I need it to open in the same window and I have no idea why the graphics aren't linking. They are on my computer not on a server. In addition I need to add multiple buttons to the action script without messing up the entire movie. It seems when I try and add event listeners for the other buttons it won't play at all.want it to go to a page outside of the flash movie. This is a swf placed in Dreamweaver the buttons need to go to other site pages.

View 1 RepliesI've followed this tutorial and made a functional photo gallery.
Now, I want to add that photo gallery on my site. I've created a flash button and assigned it this action:
Code:
on (release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("Pictures.swf");
}
"contents" is the container movie clip, and "Pictures.swf" is photo gallery i've made. Now, when i click on button, Pictures.swf does load (arrows are being shown), but when i click on them, nothing happens.
im working on a zoom/pan gallery and i have a problem that i can't solve.URL...the pan buttons are not working but the zoom and reset buttons works. im working on movie the image using the mouse now, if you will hold the image and move it it will drag it on stage.the image is a loader the loads and image and placed on screen.there is a mask on top of it and a frame that indicates the size of the gallery.when the user pan the image loader content i want it to stop as soon as it gets to the gallery frame,but i cant seem to find the best way to do it.so basicly when the image is in 100% i dont want the user to be able to drag it but after you zoom the user will be able to drag it but only to the edge of the frame so there wont be any white spaces.i tried a lot of different ways to do it but all of them are complicated and not working the way that i want them to work.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a Flash file and some of the buttons in the document are not working.When I test the movie the hand cursor appears when I hover over the buttons they don't change colour (as specified in the over state) and the actions don't work. Not sure what is going on here as I created other buttons in the same document the same way and they work fine.
View 3 RepliesI am building a website that is all in flash.In the first frame there are 6 buttons. Each button has a code to go to a different place in the timeline, where something happens. For example, one of the buttons has this code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("web");
}
Another button has this code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("widgets");
}
And so on.Everything happens on the same timeline.When I publish the movie to test it (ctrl+enter), everything works great.The problem happens when I upload the file to my ftp and try to view it online. In that case, when pressing one of the buttons, instead of jumping to the place in the timeline where it should go, it just continues on to the next frame on the timeline. So for example if I press the "web" button, instead of going to the label "web" it just continues on to frame 2 in the timeline, and then 3,4,5 and so on until there is a stop(); in the actionscript.
After the first press though, it goes back to working fine. Meaning, the second time I press the "web" button, it will go to the "web" label, and from the second click onwards everything works great. it's just the first click on ALL the buttons that doesn't work, although it does work locally...
Very strange thing has happened. I've had this site running fine for over a year, and recently I have discovered that the buttons that go to external URLs do not work.All of the buttons should be going to another .php file, and they have been until discovered yesterday that they do not.If you go to the .swf file directly, you will see that the navigation buttons take you to the correct .php files, but it becomes unclickable when it's in index.php.VERY strange... but then when you go back to index.php, and click the php active hyperlink "Gum Drops" at the bottom of the page, you'll get taken to the php page... and then all of a sudden the navigation, and all flash links to URLs work!
View 2 RepliesI have three buttons and when I click the second one, the first stops working (e.g. no trace event and it won't go back to the frame "tab1") but the third still works. Then when I press the third button both the first and second no longer work. If I take out the gotoAndStop lines, the buttons work fine. The subsequent frames simply have stops on them.
b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b1Pressed);b2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b2Pressed);b3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b3Pressed);
function b1Pressed(event:MouseEvent){ trace("b1 pressed");

I have a flash banner that rotate 6 images(slides). and it includes 6 buttons to navigate in to each image. Also images are rotates automatically every 10sec.But these buttons are not clickable in FF/Chrome, but work fine in IE with wmode: transparent. Also these buttons work fine in all browsers with wmode: opaque.Also there is drop down menu on top of the flash movie(a separate menu not included in the flash). In wmode: opaque dropdown part of the menu goes behind the Flash. In wmode: transparent that want happen.
View 1 Repliesi'm a flash newb, wrestling with actionscript 3 and ran into a problem with a drop down menu.the menu is composed of nested movie clips that open and close, and contain buttons that control a ui loader in scene 1. it seemed to be working all right until i realized that after opening and closing and reopening a submenu, the buttons that worked the first time stopped controlling the ui loader. since there aren't any error messages i'm kind of at a loss as to what needs fixing.
View 7 Repliesget all MovieClip objects that have been exported for ActionScript from a compiled SWF.

A sore point but can we simply export our apps to the iPhone with CS5 or would we need to "tidy up" some bits first. By the way, would I use vector graphics or bitmaps preferibly not to over use the iPhone processing power.

View 1 RepliesI created a MovieClip symbol in flash containing a dynamic TextField and a background. I exported it in a SWC(using this method) and I'm trying to use it from flex.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to use AsDoc on the code of one of my projects in flash. Some of the classes that I use inside the code are "exported for actionscript" classes from my FLA file.

View 1 RepliesI'm currently integrating one of my games with the SDK of a certain publisher (who shall remain nameless), but I'm having real problems. They require all games to load their content (ie. images, sounds etc) from an external SWF, like so:
Code:
private var __gameScreen:MovieClip;
private function onContentSwfLoaded(result:MediaLoaderResult):void
{
[code]....
The problem here is that I really don't want to have to use MovieClips as all of my games use nothing but BitmapData, so I'm wondering if there's a way of extracting a Bitmap or BitmapData from an SWF? It doesn't appear that Flash CS3 caters for this though - you can assign an "instance name" to a MovieClip, but not a Bitmap as far as I can tell. I usually develop in Flex Builder 3 but I've not managed to extract anything from an SWF exported from it, probably because you can't assign instance names to objects, I'm guessing. My current work-around for this problem is to draw each MovieClip to a BitmapData object, but this is very long-winded and probably not too efficient either.
I have designed a Flash animation for a client who has asked me to also provide it in a format which can be used in a film he wants to produce in Apple Final Cut Pro. I assumed the best format would be QuickTime but whenever I export the Flash file in to QuickTime the quality of the film is awful - the graphics leave fragments of themselves behind as they move (if that makes sense?!) and the overall quality isn't very crisp.
View 2 RepliesA Flash movie loads another movie that contains various asserts - movie clips in its library with 'Export for Action Script' settings set.
Is there any way to determine the list of class names of all these exported asserts from within the movie that loads them?
How can I preload a 'Flash Component' which is being exported to the first frame? Is removing linkages of the component to the first frame the only option?
