From some reason when I'm importing a PNG sequence onto stage, it's loading all of the PNGs into one frame instead of distributing them into their own keyframes like it's supposed to. I've seen this problem posted before. Anybody have a solution for this? I've also seen that people have posted that Flash CS3 HATES After Effects PNGs....how bizarre....I'm starting to figure that out.
I have a peice of video that I exported as a swf from after effects. Now that i've imoprted it into flash it's broken down into a squence of images. The problem is I need to move the video (Pics) but obviuosly I can only move 1 image at a time and that's a real pain as there is nearly 80 of them. I really need a way of moving all of them at the same time. Highlighting all the frames and moving them doesn't work.
I got a web banner made from a person in india and I was trying to examine the fla file. In the library there are four .swf movie files and I don't think they were made in the adobe flash software as they would have taken all day to do. Is there a program out there that can quickly make cool text effects with a transparent background and then be able to import the finished txt effect into adobe flash and use in the fla file?
The banner I am relating to can be downloaded here [URL] and the text effects that I am talking about are Movie1.swf Movie2.swf Movie3.swf Movie4.swf
I was curious if there is a way to import Illustrator files seamlessly into flash. My project in Illustrator has a lot of effects like drop shadows
here is what the file looks like: [URL]
so as you can see it is pretty complex. I want to import as much as I can in vector so that it saves on load time since i already built it in vectors. is it possible to import most of it in vector then just rastor the stuff that might not translate like gaussian blur etc?
I'm having a real bad time with Flash CS5, mostly by how it is exporting stuff and is unable to seemingly work with After Effects CS5, the other big program I use in my workspaceIt seems that anytime I include text into my Flash file in CS5, I am alerted that the text layout has been exported to an external file at which point it will not be imported correctly with any animation in After Effects I've read that this has something to do with the new CS5 TLF mode.
I am trying to import 100 png sequence (of a rotating object), so I choose the import command, choose all my 100 png sequences by shift clicking, but only one gets placed on the 1st keyframe the rest are in the library. How can they all be placed into the stage, all 100 png sequences taking up all 100 frames. So when I control test my movie I can see the object rotating.

I have get our client 200 tga picture (renders), i want to insert this picture one by one key frame how can i do automatically.I am try to select & stage but picture is place one over another.
I am importing a picture in flash and i found out that there is a difference between importing to the stage, and importing to the library... [URL] I've placed both picture close of each other and if you look closely, you'll notice that one of them is losing some resolution. Both picture come from the same file, a png. The picture imported to the stage is sharper than the one imported to the library. is there a way to import that picture to the library without losing any resolution?
I have done some full Flash and actionscript 3.0 based web sites, so I feel very comfortable working on it but this weekend I decided to learn After Effects CS4 and a question immediately popped up, so I decided to ask the experts.
I'm coming to Flash from a mixed graphic design / 3D animation / motion graphics background. In any of the animation programs I've used before, including After Effects, parenting is a simple operation. ...But it seems that in flash, it's more complex. So far, I am beginning to understand that it has to do with nested scenes, or nested time lines (which may be the same thing?)... So my question is... What is the easiest way to parent one object to another?
I needed to convert a simple graphic symbol into a movie because I wanted to give it depth using the (gradient bevel) filter effect. The movie has to appear at different sizes in my animation but the filter effect does not scale with the symbol. Is there a way to make this filter effect (gradient bevel) scale when I scale the symbol it is applied to?
I bought Production Premium so that I can make movies. But today I need a website topper (just a little motion graphic 850X226) I made my graphic that I like in After Effects, but now I need to put it in flash so it will play smoothly as a website title. It is importing at WAY too large of a file size when I import it into my website as a movie (>2MB) And how to make it into flash.
I tried "exporting" my comp as a .swf but the swf isn't playing parts of my video are not playing (certain effects and lights). what I need to do to get my title bar to play on a website perfectly.
I have been working on ActionScript 2.0 for last one year...i am also new for programming, actionscript is the first language that i have learnt....i used to write the codes on the object directly and sometimes on the frame but i never used class in as 2.0.basically i am a mathematician, only because of being mathematician my boss allowed me to do r&d on as. Now i am working on some projects in which i want to create 3D effects(3D grapher, rotate, zoom in, zoom out)..i want to start working on as3.0..
I was wondering if you can use the mx.effects classes in pure as3 projects, i.e no flex. I've heard you could but when I try to create and instance of the class I get an error.
In this website there's an intro. Now, the website is about a lingerie company here in Italy...so it's like a based fashion website. I'm going to create the intro with after effects...what do you think about this? How do you create your intros? With after effects? do you have some fashion website link with an intro?
I'm trying to create an effect which actually is combination of two effects explained in two tutorials on Kirupa website namely (1). ActionScript Text Animation and (2). Random Letter Cycling.The Text Animation part is working fine. but the random letter cycling part is not working fine.i'm not able to recall the corresponding Ist letter of the word i want.

sience I've heard that you are quite experienced in flash I wonder if you would like to help me with a little problem of mine.what I want to do is that I want to get two different effects while pressing down one key.
i always loves to create aura/particle effects in flash while creating some website, I always use after effect to create them, but it's a little heavy side.I was wondering is there any way to make it lighter in weight so it could faster the loading time?URL...
I normally use onEnterFrame = function(){} when I want the program to check every frame for things like coordinates, collision detection, if I pushed button, or clicked the mouse on a specific location.
Normally when I want to make a switch, I use a boolean statement, such as if(conditionA == 0){effect;} or if(conditionA == 1){effect;} if(conditionB == true){effect;} or if(conditionB == false){effect;}
Is there a way to put a ripple transition on a menu button? In Final Cut Pro I can add a transition from one video to another or end a video with a ripple effect like you have just touched water. Is there a way to create that ripple effect on a pop up menu in my flash file so that the menu will ripple dissolve when I press a button instead of the menu just vanishing?

So I'm designing a website in flash. I want users to be able to mouseover an image OR text to create the desired effect. The idea is a group of pictures that go from black and white to color if you mouse over them OR the text (links) below. So I need to somehow link the rollover effect.
I made a flash animation of a character walking, exported it as .swf, made sure it worked in the flash player, and imported it into After Effects. I used keyframes to map out where I wanted my character to walk. I played it back, first using space bar, then using 0, and my character didn't animate.
I didn't script anything. I was trying to follow these directions to create a walk animation[url]...
At step 4 the guy said, " I won't delve into how to create each frame of the cycle because for one thing, you can have a look at the fla. that I enclose at the end of the tutorial, and for another it's not that hard. I'm sure you can do that!" I didn't download his project because I already know how keyframes work, I knew what I needed to do to make my animation walk the way I wanted it to walk. From there I right clicked on the movie clip, clicked "Export SWF...", and named it.
How can I can I get my character to animate when I preview my work in After Effects? Was there something I should have done while in Flash to make it work in After Effects?
