AS 2.0 new to CS4, import mx.transitions.TweenRGB not working
Works fine in CS3, Doesn't work in CS4?
Any Ideas, seem to be having the same problem with:
mport flash.display.*;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";// no resize of the swf
Stage.align = "TL";// align top left.
import mx.transitions.Tween;
Like things are not importing correctly, or something?
[URL].. lines a lot in our files to set up AS Tweens. Is there a way to import these globally on one frame of ActionScript instead of having to put it in AS for every time an MC is being tweened?
View 1 RepliesI am currently following one of the tutorials on making the flip flv video player. All was going fine right up to the point that I went to render the file right after entering the following code and I get this error: scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, 1172: Definition caurina.transitions could not be found. I dont know whats wrong I havent used flash for a while but I know I have done this before in CS3?
Her is my actionscript:
import caurina.transitions.*;
import fl.video.*;[code]............
I'm running Flash Builder 4 that came with my Adobe Master Suite CS5 group of software. I'm trying to implement a flip animation that uses the following packages:
fl.transitions.Tween
fl.transitions.TweenEvent
fl.transitions.easing.Strong
but I'm getting compiler errors for each of those lines:
1172: Definition fl.transitions:Tween could not be found.
1172: Definition fl.transitions:TweenEvent could not be found.
1172: Definition fl.transitions.eashing:Strong could not be found.
I found some references other people discussed regarding CS3, but I'm on cs5 (and this machine never had cs3 installed, I started with cs4 and upgraded to cs5).
Do I need to explicitely tell Flash Builder where to find these packages? Are they not standard to the Flash Builder 4.0 Standard build?
I've been trying to use the tweenRGB class with Flash 8 / Actionscript 2.0, with no luck. Even the samples provided on the extension's site don't work. They throw up errors until I remove the commenting, after which they do nothing.
View 2 RepliesAs code, simply trying to make things fade in and out namely :- homepage_mc which is a movieclip on my main stage. Fades in Fine on startup, but when the button mybuttons.homebutt is pressed i get no response.
View 4 Repliesokay, this is driving me crazy. i used this tutorial: [URL] for creating transisitons between diffrent swfs. i have it set up exactly how the tutoral shows me, and i changed the necessary AS to the buttons that i have, as well as the contianer MC. but for som odd reason, when i press a diffrent button from one thing to another, the swf that comes through is still the first one.

View 2 RepliesI've downloaded some animated .gif images. When I try to import them to Flash and add them to the libary, and then onto my animation, they don't move, just stay still like normal images. Why is this? I've seen people import things such as boats moving across the sea in .gif files and they work in flash, why aren't mine?
View 2 RepliesFrom what I've read, the fileSystem class (which I need to write a data file to disk from a projector) works in Flash CS4 as long as you have the AIR runtime (which I do), according to the documentation.
I found quite a bit of sample code, but I can't even get the package to load and all of the types and functions and classes are undefined.
Here's my code:
import flash.filesystem.*;
function writeFile():void {
var file:File = File.documentsDirectory;
[Code]....
I can't find filesystem.as in my install folders. Perhaps it's somewhere else?
Or perhaps I misunderstand the documentation and you can't use fileSystem in a flash projector with AIR?
Or is there some setting in Flash I need to adjust to work with the library and AIR?
I'm currently doing to get the current url from the browser to flash, and even how to get the query string parameters from the url into actionscript using ExternalInterface. The project is working fine on Google Chrome and Mozilla but not in IE.

I've used this method...[URL]to place some basic XML in Flash.The XML doc is on the server - when I test locally it works great.On the server, when I test with "www" in the address bar, it doesn't work.When I test without the "www" it does work.
The XML file is referenced with all absolute URLs and I've tried with and without the "www".I've read about the security feature of not allowing XML and Flash on different servers, but they're not!
The "import "Player.as" line throws the error: 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightbrace before semicolon.

I was going great with Flex, until I tried to split up my code into separate files. Now I'm struggling. Here are my files and their dependencies:

I'm building my first AS 3.0 application and am using external .swf files that load into a main.swf. I'm creating transitions for each external .swf as they are unloaded so when the user clicks next, the current .swf transitions out and the new one comes in. Since loadMovie and levels are obsolete in 3.0,I've looked into the transitions manager class, but some of my transitions are pretty intricate so I would need to use timeline based tweens.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a slideshow (sort of). The idea is that each frame in the root timeline works as a slide. Each slide inside each frame is a simple MC filled with images, texts, audio and animations and so on. Once this MC reaches its last frame, it should stop and trigger another MC used as a transition. And I've put inside this transition MC a code that should tell the root timeline to advance a single frame in order to show the next "slide".
So, on the timeline, I've put this code:
***
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(slide._currentframe == slide._totalframes){
[code]....
Well, needless to say it is not working. The whole swf just stops. And if I remove the stop() code of the Transitions MC at frame 2, the current slide will loop before the transition triggers the nextFrame command.
I only open it up a couple of times a year to replace a banner ad in a clients web site. But I am having a problem with the transitions that I haven't experienced before. I created a new flash file with text that fades in over 24 frames before going to the next bit, but when I test it, it just jumps from one text to the next without the fade in. It plays fine on the stage, but exports the .swf file without the fade transitions.
View 3 RepliesBelow is the code which is used to trigger the transitions. For reference 'home' is movieclip and 'homestate' is a button in the movieclip.
home.homestate.onRelease=function(){
if(_root.section!="home.swf"){
_root.section="home.swf";[code]....
I try incorporating these actions into the first script but I get an error.
home.homestate.onRelease=function(){
if(_root.section!="home.swf"){
_root.section="home.swf";[code]...
i was also wondering if it's possible to make transitions with masks using actionscript?i have section headers that i want to transition when certain buttons are clicked, and depending on what button is clicked, a new section header is shown. i put all the section headers in a movie clip, with different frame names, so when the button is clicked, it jumps to the different frame name of the movie clip.for the transition, i basically want a wipe left to reveal the section header.. and a wipe right to hide it... and to do this, i figure i'd need to mask...
so i put a mask over the movie clip and realized that flash doesn't mask movie clips very well, when using masking layers.. so it doesn't really work properly.is there a way to do this using actionscript? and if so, how? i know flash know has a setmask property for movieclips..but can you modify the mask property's size??
I found this site and I like the transitions between the photo's. how to make such an effect! Is it done with masks? or......?
View 14 RepliesI have a menu with 4 buttons, once clicked each button sends you to its corresponding section (frame label). Each section has a different loading animation. Once in a section I would like to go to another but before this that section's specific transition animation must play. Now I've looked around and all I can find is how to do this with a universal transition animation.
View 3 Replies[URL]theres the link for the turorial. my questions is, how can i use movieclips instead of using buttons. i thought it would be simple enough to create a movieclip, add the on release as to it and done, but it doesn't work. i also converted the file to flash 8 btw.
View 1 RepliesIs there an updated version to this tutorial? I'm specifically trying to apply the technique, but using a tween engine (tweenlite) as well as MovieClipLoader.Or perhaps there's a newer, more efficient way to load swf's with transitions?
View 2 RepliesI read the tutorial about transitions between external swfs and started implementing it! So as a good and ordonate guy that I am, I put the index.html in the root, created a style folder for the style and a folder for the swfs. I was struggling about one hour to find out why it wouldn't work, to find out that if I move the html inside with the swfs, being in the same directory, it worked fine!
View 3 RepliesI am using Flash CS3 AS2 I have a main movie into which several external swfs are loaded. Two of these swfs are left_menu and middle_menu. I would like these to be able to talk to each other. When the 'home' button is pressed on 'left menu' I would like 'middle_menu' to go to a certain frame and play out. I have had a look at the tutorial which differs a bit and I'm a little confused (very new to actionscript!). I have put on by 'home' button if 'left menu':

I know how to do transitions that use external swf files using levels
What if i wanted to do it all in one swf? an example is here below:
[URL]
If you vist the profile page for example, you will see four main buttons at the top, Details, experience, favorites and hate. If i click on one of these some secondary buttons appear underneath, RED ones.
Now then if I press experience for example, the red buttons appear below and now if i click on favorites the experience buttons slide out to be replaced by the favorite buttons. I could do this with external swf files and use midframe actionscript but this all appears to be happening in one swf.
I am creating my first Flash Web site, learning ActionScripting as I go. I think my most recent problem requires some simple scripting, but I haven't found a solution on the Board, so I decided to post this message.
Basically, I am trying to make the transitions between each section of my site seamless, and in absence of any HTML-like jumps in which the page just cuts to another. For example, when you click on a button from the main navigation area of my portfolio site, you are taken to another section (separate scene),and the content area changes.I want the previous scene to fade out, after the button is clicked, before the new scene loads. Another words, I need to figure out how to tell the timeline to do this for each button:
When I click the Graphics navigation button,FIRST play frames 300-310 of the current scene (fading out animation)THEN take me to the frame label graphics.Heres the code attached to my Graphics button currently (it nested inside a movie clip, hence the _.root part). How would I change this to get it to play frames 300-310 of the current scene before it takes me to the graphics page?
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("graphics");
}
