View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip that I imported into flash, used a skin and have a nice little player for this website intro. I want to proceed to the sites home page upon completion of the movie. Searched but the best I could come up with was;
player.addEventListener("complete",function (event:Object) { trace("doneVideo");new URLRequest("my link");});
I just got this flash intro and everytime I take into CS5, it says could not load,may be damage.The intro isnt damaged at all.How can I get my intro to load,so I can edit text? If I can get it to load how do I go about editing the text?
View 3 RepliesThe File This is the file I have troubles with:
Code: [URL] What do I want to do? I downloaded a pre-made flash intro, and all I have to do is change the text of it, but I can't find out how!
When I ctrl+enter my movie, I see as first sentence in my flash intro "Creative Expression". I want to change that to another word.
When I go to my library, I find a lot of "sprites", and one of them has different layers in a timeline. Including the text layer I guess, because when I hide this layer, the text does not show up anymore in edit-mode. When I watch in edit-mode all the text in this layer, all the text are words "Text".
BUT when I ctrl+enter, I see other words, like "Creative Expression" as text.
In the library I can also see "sprites" in the library with as content the looks of the text "Creative Expression". But instead of "Creative Expression, the word in the "sprite" is just "Text".
So what did I do: I changed the word "Text" to my word and ctrl+enter'ed but I still see "Creative Expression". BUT in edit-mode I see the correct text (my text)
When I save, and export, I still see the words "Creative Expression", eventhough I changed it to my word.
I have a flash intro on my site and i would like to create a cookie so that if you have already seen it it takes to a specific frame in the movie is this possible?
View 1 RepliesI need a skip intro link in my movie that, when clicked, goes to the last frame of the movie and plays it.

How do you get dynamic text to show up within a specific movie clip instead of simply on the stage?
I've created a dynamic text field and given it an instance name (banner_txt). I'd like to use a variable to hold the .text info for this field, that way the banner's label can change when people go to a new section of my website.
If I have an FLV that I've output as SWF with skin to have embedded into an HTML page, and now a 'skip intro' is needed - though I'd have to make note of the actual time or keyframe in which the intro completes...How is this possible? Clearly, a button would need to be added for that kind of interactivity?

View 2 Repliesi want to make an intro swf which is small and loads quickly but i would like the main swf to start loading while the intro is playing. i'm not worried about the intro finishing once the main movie is loaded but i just want to the main movie to START loading while the intro is playing to cut down on load time.
View 1 RepliesI've managed to create some small and successful movie animations which loop when place on a website.What I'm trying to do is to have a movie which has a intro section which plays for about 15 seconds or so then moves onto the main body of the movie which then loops without showing the intro section again.
View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip that I uploaded as an .flv (so I could have the sound) as something on the timeline. I set up a button below the video to skip to the website (or welcomePage)However, I cannot get the button to work for some reason. Below is my script, am I missing something? Also, for whatever reason, now my movie clip does not autoload when it did before...I also do realize that I could probably condense the timeline, but I am just working teaching myself, so bare with me.
stop();
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, welcomePage);resume_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, resumePage);reel_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, reelPage);photos_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, [code]....
I have an intro movie for my website, I know how to make it load another URL after it has played but how do I get it to load another swf. I know there is an easy answer that is escaping me.
View 1 RepliesI have a very simple problem here, I have googled around for awhile but it seems that its impossible to find specific flash subjects. What I have is 2 files, one is the intro movie for my flash project and the other is the menu. I need some action script 3 to end the intro and load the menu in the same box,
View 2 RepliesI want to put audio on my intro movie [we're currently developing a game]. Once you press start button, a movie clip is being played together with an external sound. As soon as the user hits the skip button, the sound stops and you'll proceed to the main game. I cant make the sound STOP.
Code:
stop();
var introSound:Sound = new Sound();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
introSound.load(new URLRequest("intromusic.mp3"));
function intro(e:Event):void{
[Code] .....
If I do this, the audio will play the moment I run it [and I don't want that to happen. the audio must be within the intro movie only].
Code:
stop();
var introSound:Sound = new Sound();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
introSound.load(new URLRequest("intromusic.mp3"));
myChannel = introSound.play();

I am using Flash CS3 on Windows and using Dreamweaver CS3 to embed my flash content. I have a Flash banner/animation on my main index.html page that I cannot get to show up. I have provided all relative info/files below. It works find on my local hard drive, but when I upload it (from several different FTP clients) it won't show up on several different computers browsers. It's not my FTP, other items are uploading fine, and I don't think it is browser issues.
I checked the source code of the uploaded site against my Dreamweaver code, and it seems to be the same. So I can't understand what's going on.I tried resaving the file under a new name. The weird part is, I embedded a .swf file initially and it worked. I was asked to make edits to the movie, and I renamed it, replaced old files and now it won't work. I made sure and tried to check all the links to make sure it wasn't trying to link back to my old document, resaved my index.html page etc. [URL]

View 14 RepliesI have no understanding of even the most basic concepts, put it that way. Anyway, so I have 2 test boxes, one that is static and one that is dynamic. I made the dynamic one first, and on the same frame, I put the AS: var random:Number = 100; What I do know is that flash now recognizes that whatever dynamic text box with the variable label of "random" is a number. The output should also be a #, and when you test out the movie, a 100 should be in the dynamic text box that you just created, even though you don't see this on the stage before testing. So I tested it out, and sure enough, a "100" shows up. Next, I put another text box that is static, and I typed "test" in it. (Without quotes) The two text boxes should have no relation, but when I tested out the movie again, only the "test" static text box words show up, and the 100 in the previously created text box is gone. I've tried moving the text boxes to different places and changing variables and such, but nothing works, as far as I know.
View 3 RepliesI want to create a shortcut with the key 'f1'. If pressed the movieobject 'uitleg' visible property will be true, the movie object is actually nothing but some text which explains what to do. When pressing f1 again the visible property will go false again and you can continue with the game.
I hoped the following code would work, but nothing happens at all. If i remove the && (uitleg._visible = false) it does work, but I wouldn't know how else to set the property back to false when pressing the f1 key again.

I had create a dynamic text with initial text "0".
When run this code, the text will change[code]...
I created a basic flash movie for a client's site. The only action script code that I used in my file is a stop command to stop the movie from looping. My question is why don't my flash animation works when I use LIVE VIEW IN Dreamweaver. or when I preview my site in a browser .the only thing that will display is a huge white box. The flash animation will load up from (Flash Professional) when I do a publish preview but when I insert my flash into Dreamweaver and use live view my flash don't show ...just a white box.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a WAV audio player for a website which will display the audio waveform like this site does: [URL]
Is there a way to do this? I've spent hours searching the internet with no luck.
I made text box, typed some text, converted it to a movie clip, named etc. Used a purchased and proven scroller component ... followed directions to the letter, including referencing/linking the files. However, when I tried to test the scroll bar .... the scroll bar appears, scrolls and works perfectly except the text does not appear. I have tried making a scroll bar with the UIscrollbar same thing happens. I made an other attempt and put pics along with the text in the movie clip ... this time the pics appeared and scrolled, but the text still would not appear.

I'm using text that is set to "dynamic text". In actionscript 3 I tried:
instancename.text = "abc";
trace(instancename.text);
Trace returns "abc" when I test the movie but the appearance of the text doesn't change.
In action script 2 I tried:
var1 = "abc";
instance1._text = "def";
trace(var1 + instance1._text);
Trace returns "abcdef" when I test the movie but the appearance of the text doesn't change.
