I am working on a flash project that was created with the publish setting of Flash 5, however I need to update this flash and the publish setting for the update requires it to be Flash 8, actionscript 2. I have been trying to figure this out for weeks, and even asked on the adobe site, but no help. I can play and view the swf while the publish setting is in flash 5, everything works (the text shows and rollover works and the audio), however when I change it to flash 8, the audio works and the text is there, but when I put my cursor over the text the rollover images do not appear. This is the actionscript for Frame 1
_quality="best";
for (g=1; g<7; g++) {
this[g]._visible=0;
}
I'm unable to make it work :Flash exports the first frame in the SWF file as a PNG file, unless you mark a different keyframe for export by entering the #Static frame label.When publishing the fla, the png is build from the frame that is currently displayed in flash (if my timeline is at frame 3, frame 3 get exported)
Why wont AS3 work with any of the combo boxes text boxes button etc? swithcing the publsih settings from AS2 to 3how can i get these to work? and why are they still avalible formthe components menu when you in AS 3 publish settings if they dont work?
I am using Flash CS4 on Windows XP x64 and onion skinning does not work when publish setting are set to Actionscript 3. Is there a workaround for this or am I just SOL?
I downloaded this free flash website template for building my website, all the actionscript in the template in AS3, i tried using xml flash - photogallery (for which i found the tutorial on this website.) in my website, but while publishing the site, it gives error, i guess it might be compatibility issue as the script that i found on the website might be in AS2 and that might be clashing with AS3 script of the template. Coz when i change the publish setting to AS2, the AS3 part of the script does not work. Individually both script in their respective separate files work but when combined together the site goes bonkers. as i want the photogallery part exactly as it is shown on this site which is with the thumbnail preview.
Ive made a movie that add strings from several input text fields to an array. This array is sent from the flash video to php. This is working fine when I preview the movie as Flash. The php script prints the variables as intended.
But when I preview it as html the arrays are all empty...
[AS] on (release) { number_of_attr1 = main._currentframe + 1; suggestions1 = new Array();
I'm new to flash mx 2004 and I'm having a problem publishing and playing my finished project. Every time I try to play or publish the project I get a 'The Flash program is out of memory. Please increase virtual memory on your PC' message. I was originally working on a 1 gig RAM PC and thought this was the problem. I've since borrowed a 2 GIG RAM PC which allowed me to do a little bit more work before I got the same problem. I then got a 4 GIG PC and was able to finish the project but if I try to play it or publish it the program crashes. Any Ideas. This is a college project which I need to publish as a windows exe file and I can't do it. I don't know what's wrong. The project is about 280 meg in size. I tried to 'save and compact' but it still crashes. I also tried to debug the flash project and it crashed again. I'm baffled as I think a 4 GIG PC should be ample and I no longer think that this is entirely a RAM problem anyway.
I know Flash well enough to make my site but know virtually nothing about HTML. I have published my HTML through Flash but the image is always aligned top left and not centred. I want to change the code to make it centre in the browser window but there's pages of the stuff and I'm not sure what's what or what to change.
My flash cs3 is crashing every time I try to publish a file, why? I run vista business 32 bit I didn't have problems until today,using flash cs3 for the[code]...
My client would like his pages without the right scroll bar. I realize it is a bit crazy on his part, but this is what he wants. How can I publish Flash ani so that there is no vertical scrollbar on the right side? Here is the example that he is using..[URL]..
I'm pretty new at Flash and I have been trying to solve this for the last coupleof days to no success. When I publish to html in flash my movie gets cut at the bottom which it really can't. Is there anyway to resolve this? the code is the following:
I'm using Adobe flash to create a movie and I cannot publish it, and the annoying part is that it wont give me any error messages it just crashes half way through loading. Please help! its really important as my project is due next week.
I want to create a flash ad for google AdWords using Flash CS5.
according to the guidelines (http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=guide.cs &guide=1308145&topic=1310862&answer=176108&rd=2) I am required to publish for flash player 4:
Flash versions: All Flash ads must be published for Flash Player version 4-10.
Flash CS5 doesn't offer me to target flash player 4 in the publish settings
i found a way to publish swf as flash player 10 and that supports 3d features in the script like rotationX, rotationY and rotationZ. no need to hack or use hex editors. Simple steps you have to follow.
I have included the files + a sample 3d fla i have don in that tutorial. Only the problem is Test Movie won't show 3d features. You will have to use publish preview to get results of flash player 10 features/scripts.
I can't understand why when I publish my flash app. it creates one html file (name.html) and two swf files (name.swf & name_scene1.swf) with different sizes! I have problems with my app when I upload it to my server, but it works fine locally.
I'm having a problem with the flash publish method and swfaddres.I've included the javascript of the flash pubblication in a new javascript file with the swfaddress in the same page.If i use swfobject for including my flash file in the swf, swfaddress works ok...if i include the swf with the flash method swfaddress doesn't work.Here the link: http:[url]......
I am having a problem with Flash at work. Any time I try and publish a file, whether its a .swf, .exe, or whatever, Flash crashes and closes. I am running Windows Vista x32, and Flash CS3. Any file, as long as it is saved and publishing a copy of the file with the same name, does this. The only way I can get around it is publishing from an Untitled document that hasn't been saved yet....even then all I get is a preview, not an actual published file.
The files I am working with publish fine on other machines. I have contacted Adobe and all I got was "reinstall," and "run a clean install." I reinstalled 3 times, and have run CS3clean twice along with more reinstalls (once each using each separate level of cleaning.) None of it worked; I still get the same issue. Also, I cannot open the ActionScript tab without flash crashing; the only workaround is to open an untitled document, open the AS tab THERE, and THEN open an already existing document. From there though I can't check my syntax or auto-format.
I have recently taken over a project started by another person who has been let go due to lack of performance and other issues.He has created a FLA file and an .exe file. But I am have been asked to place the movie on to the internet.The FLA file that I have will not let me publish an SWF file to be uploaded to the internet, in fact it will not let me publish anything.I have changed the publish setting but when I go to publish it the SWF file is not created.I just want this file in SWF format and for it to autoplay when the website is loaded.
Extra Information: I have used a exe to swf converter to convert the EXE file that was already made into a SWF file for the internet. This does make an swf file but the file is not editable and will not autoplay once it is uploaded.
I simply want to put a movie on my website. I have other flash movies on my site that work fine. I import the video for progressive view. Publish the .fla. I get a .swf and an .html. I upload the files to my website and NOTHING! I check them locally and they work fine. Then I publish them again and they no longer work locally.
Flash 8 publishes them by default to my desktop. But if I use the default paths in CS4 the files don't even publish...they are nowhere to be found even with a search of my HD. I took html code from my site that was working and just changed the .swf file name. that didn't work either.
This is probably a really obvious question but I can't seem to find the answer! I've created a simple drag and drop game and I would like to embed it so people can visit my website and play it. How do I do this?
Any movie whatsover (i.e. any file in any location on my drive) cannot be published (including test movie via Command-Enter) because I get this error: "Error creating SWF movie file. Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check that the file name is not too long."
The file name isn't too long, and I am logged in as an administrator on the machine. All folders I have tried to publish to are unlocked and I have read/write priveliges to them. This is a new install of CS4 and has been updated to the very latest version (and it didn't work before the update, not does it work after). This is NOT to do with my specific permissions. This is a clean install of Flash CS4 Professional on a very new Macbook Pro running OS 10.5.7.
For the record, I just want to say that I think it is totally absurd that Adobe shipped Flash CS5 with the ability to ONLY publish AIR 2.0 apps...which hasn't been publicly released yet. I've been working on an AIR app for several weeks and needed to upgrade from Flash CS3 to CS5 to take advantage of the new Text Layout Framework. Now, my app can't be installed by my customers because I can't publish for a version of AIR they can access!! How this decision got made baffles me. Adobe needs to be on top of their game these days and this blunder makes it that much more difficult to defend the Flash/AIR platform that I love so much. Flame over.
Now, for the workaround I've discovered. To get Flash CS5 to publish an AIR 1.5 file, I first published an AIR 2.0 app. Then I went into the app descriptor xml file and changed the version from 2.0 to 1.5 <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5"> Then I deleted the xml nodes in that same file that are specific to AIR 2.0 (<visible>, <fullScreen>, <autoOrients>, <aspectRatio>, <renderMode>). I locked the app descriptor file so it couldn't be changed by the next publish. Then I deleted the previously created .air file and the .swf file. I then republished the app from CS5 and it was able to install under the publically available version of AIR (1.5.3.9130).
i recently purchased a flash template online, to edit for my own site and I can edit it no problem. The problem is, after I publish it. If i want to reopen the program after i closed it to modify it again, all my buttons and text on the template turn into grey boxes around the buttons and the text disappears..
I have suddenly encountered a strange problem; each time I try to publish in FL CS3 in Vista I get an error message from Windows about 20% of the way through the status bar which says that Windows is shutting down Flash and will send me a message it figures out why it is shutting down. Is there a way to delete a cached file in the Flash Player folder to make this stop.
