Got a site and my opening page is made with Flash for the menu, each subsection when clicked is a link to another ".html" Now, when i click the links it opens a new page of the ".html" clicked, but I need it to open in the same window if i cant in the same frame. Cuz it keeps opening new windows...im assuming the fix is with something like "_self", but in my CS4 under properties of each button under Link I have the URL and selected "_self". I even put in a new layer called action and used the code below. But when I tried putting ,"_self" after the url in the code i got an error in flash.[code]
I need to made a Browser windows before that i open the Flash movie, like this one: [URL] So i need somme kind of pop up to run when somme one opens the site, and then see the movie.
I'm having problems getting the tutorial to work so I decided to look at the source fla. But the Source file won't open on my computer, get the message "failed to open document".
My CS5 flash crashed when I changed the name of the root folder while it was open. Swf is working fine, but .fla file wont open, I get a "Failed to open document" message. This is a disaser because I've lost two days of work. Is there anything that could be done to fix this problem?
1) how do you open a new window if you have thumbnail pics in the flash movie but want the full pic to open up in a new window? Is this Javascript inside flash?
2) How do they do the menu bar here at this site:[URL]
I am trying to have multiple links off site but have hit a brick wall. If I have the code listed below, it opens the second link as soon as you open the links page, If I have the"function onLinkClick (evt)", above btn6_btn I end up with the duplicate error message. Is there a way to have multiple link buttons on a page. I have played with this for hours.
I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) { var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I have installed CS5 recently and then deleted CS4, since doing so (or at least I think that's the cause), I cannot open SWF by a simple double click like I used to. Opening them in browser or in CS works fine but I still want to be able to open those SWF with a double click.
Tried using "open with", then Flash CS5, without success. Also went on Adobe's website to try redownloading the flash plugin but didn't let me download it as "browser already have flash plugin installed".
How did you re-established the double click to open a SWF?
. My current project has me needing to open a .FLA file in a template. I am using Adobe Flash CS3 Pro but every time I try to open a fla file all I get is "UNEXPECTED FILE FORMAT"!I have tried several different FLA files with the same result?
I'm having trouble opening some .fla files using Adobe Flash Professional 8. The one's on my computer are fine, but some (not all) the ones on other peoples systems don't, I'm using CoreFTP to access them, but some when I go to view them says "unexpected file format", and the same is true if I try to transfer them over to my computer.
I just installed the 30-day trial version of Adobe Flash Pro CS5 on my HP laptop (I'm using Windows XP Professional) and every time I try to open it it says that "Adobe Flash CS5 has encountered a problem and needs to close."
I opened from my main swf a new one with addChild. Now in the 2nd swf i need a button to close this swf and open another one ... I done this way because the button i puted in the main swf does nīt work (maybe because iīm using in both swf liquid layout with a resize function). How can i do to close the 2nd swf and open another one.
I was given an old .fla file to work on from someone. I tried opening up in Flash CS5 and got an error that the file was not supported. After running the file through [URL].. auncher I was informed that the .fla was of version 6. Doing a google search suggests that a flash version 6 file needs to be opened with FlashMX?
Is there any way to get Cs5 to open up this old .fla?
I am not a stranger to Flash. I have been using it for years. I like it. I use it to create illustrations, but it has this weird issue where the more you edit the line points, the larger your file size gets, until it gets so large that you cannot open it anymore. I generally have this issue around the 7mb mark. I always try to keep an eye on my files and when they get around 3mb, I copy everything and paste them into a new file. I usually do this every two days, or so, if I am working on one illustration for a long time. However, it doesn't usually happen all at once. Today when I opened my file it was about 2mb. I closed it, and then when I went to reopen it had jumped to 14mb! I cannot open my file.
The specific error is, "There is not enough memory to open this scene. Your document is not damaged and may be safely saved. To increase available memory, close open documents or quit and use Get Info command in the Finder to allocate more memory to Flash." I have done searching on google and many people appear to get this error when there are problems with PNG's in the library for their file. The library for my file is completely empty. I have one scene, with about 10 layers. My file was created completely/exclusively in Flash. There are no PNG's or JPG's to be causing problems.
The last time this happened to me, I had a friend with a computer better than mine open the file for me, copy/paste all my layers into a new file, and then send it back. I have experience with the issue but I, unfortunately, don't know if I have any friends who can open 14mb flash files right now.
From my main.swf I want to open up a new play.swf window, while keeping my main.swf still open, but everytime I use loadMovie(),it opens up the play.swf and closes the other main.swf. how to achieve this(don't want to open in Internet Explorer, it should open standalone in flash player)
I'd like to create a button in FlashMX which, when pressed will open a PowerPoint file. I came across a tutorial on how to use the FSCOMMAND "exec" to trigger a batch file which then triggers the PowerPoint file. This however did not work... If I double click on the batch file, the PP file will open as required so it seems to be the command in Flash that's causing a problem.
i want to open pdf file in flash movie area so i have read some queries in this forum regarding this topic but i want to know that how I can make bat file (.bat) OF A PDF FILE (.pdf) ?
I have a small title screen which is capable of opening one of two swf's depending on which button the user presses(see code below).When I put similar code in either of the swf's that are opened on the button click to go back to the title screen, the title screen opens with the previous swf still playing in the background. How do I unload a previous swf once the the new one is open?
Code: var movieLoader:Loader = new Loader(); swf1Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openSWF1 ); swf2Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openSWF2 );
I have read several posts where people discuss TOPMOST and SWF Studio as options for keeping applications running in the top of the z order.
My question is: Is there a way to create a projector that always stays on top (e.g. even if a windows update occurs) without purchasing SWF Studio? As I understand TOPMOST is only for launched applications, not for the application itself.
