Lost All Layers / Motion From Last Night / But Movie Still Plays?
Aug 12, 2009
I don't know what is going on, but I opened up the file that I was working on last night and all the layers are gone. They have been flattened into a single "Layer 1", and the the timeline shows only the one frame. However, when I Ctrl-Enter, the movie generates and plays just like it did last night (the layers and motion seem completly intact). How do I get them back for editing? This is ridiculous. As far as I know I did nothing to flatten the image, and I don't see how it could correctly create the movie unless my info is intact in some form.

I want my movie to loop. Would prefer an If/Else loop so that the movie plays a certain number of times then plays the opening of a screen then stops. This is a simple 4 screen ad I am doing for a school project. Can't get it to work. I tried containing my code in the proper loop syntax, didn't work. Then wrapping the loop in a function and calling that with a timer event, didn't work. My final solution was to call my whole movie in a timer event set to play once. Then calling the entire movie again in a second timer event set to play 20 times and set to start at an interval when the first movie ended. This did work but each time the movie plays thru function calls drop off making the movie degrade.

I'm getting the following error: Motion tweening will not occur on layers with ungrouped shapes or on layers with more than one group or symbol. I don't have any ungrouped shapes (it's all text), each layer has 5 instances of only one symbol (keyframes), no objects are grouped and text is all static text.
When watching the animation, the first word (web) looks fine, on the second word (design) the tween fails on the last couple of frames of that clip (the blur filter disappears), the third word (and) is OK, and on the forth word (development) the blur filter is not applied to the last 16 frames of that clip.I broke each animation into its own MC thinking that was causing the issue, but that didn't fix anything.

I have made my website: [URL] and I have to SWF's one for the day and one for the night. I used a JS script to detect the user's time and by that to activate the currect SWF but I find it hard when I want to update the FLA of the day.FLA I have also to update the night.FLA. Therefore, is there a way I can make that detection of user's time using ActionSctipt in the FLA of so I will have one FLA and in the preloading time it will detect the time and by that will put the correct background?

Does anybody have a plugin, filter, or some as3 code to achieve this effect? I can easily achieve it using layers/opacity/tints etc but its bulky. Im looking for a smoother way of doing it.

I have just recently finished work on a A level project, which was to build a site for a night club. I decided to design and program it all in flash, then embedded the .swf files in html and URLRequesting them in the .swf files to link between them. But this is beside the point...
All my content is in text files and I load this into Dynamic Text Boxes and because some of the text is excessively long I decided to use a UI Scrollbar. I then encountered a most massive annoying error.
If I run the .swf on its own the scrollbar functions correctly showing the tab and also works with the scroll wheel. If I drag and drop the .swf into a browser and use it in there the scroll wheel functionality works but the tab disappears.
Lastly if I embedded the .swf file in a .html file then load the .html in a browser I get neither the scrollwheel functionality or the tab.[URL]..

I'm having a bit of trouble implementing a system that can detect night and day through webcam.
I've decided the best approach would be to detect the average colour of the webcam image, and through this it can be converted to grayscale and if its closer to black the background will be dark or if its white it'll be brighter.
What I'm having trouble doing is working out how to achieve this, I've been using the kirupa webcam tutorial but I've got no idea how to actually go about working out the average colour.[URL]..

I am using Action Script 3. I cannot unload movies. I have a movie playing and when one of six buttons are clicked, the appropriate movie plays. Movies keep playing in background, however I got the sound to stop.

//This is where the Stop Sound is

I'm making a simple drag-and-drop style dress up game, and I want to know if it's possible to combine multiple movie clips on different layers so that they can be gragged as a single object in the game, but retain their seperate layers. For example, if I make a hat and I want the front part of the hat to be on a layer above the doll base's head, and the back of the hat to be on a layer behind it, but the hat has to move as a whole when dragged.

I have only been using FLASH CS3 for a little under a month. I have messed about with it to create some basic stuff. However recently I started on a bit of a larger project. I 'm by no means an expert in FLASH CS3 or AS3.My problem -I created a .FLA file that has seven movie clips on the main timeline, each in its own layer. These are listed below in the order they appear within the main time line.
layer ------------ movie clip
ON -------------- on_mc
RIM ------------- rim_mc
NAV-------------- coverbase_mc
PLAYER---------- player_mc
MAIN------------- main_mc
NAMEBOX------- shellname_mc
BASE------------ Base_mc
The art work for these was all imported from adobe photoshop. They all only have one frame on the main timeline. Each movie clip though has its own internal time line and some have further nested movie clips within them.The issue occurs within the NAV layer/coverbase_mc. I placed a movie clip(to act as a button) within coverbase_mc. This movie clip is called navbut_mc.Now, I already have a couple of similar movie clips, that act as buttons, in on_mc and rim_mc these work as I intended them to. However navbut_mc does not work at all in its current position. I get no errors at all on testing the movie but the action that I want it to do does not work even buttonmode = true; will not work on it.
However, if I use the same movie clip in the rim.mc, but obviously give it a seperate instance name (start_mc), then it works as intended. I have looked at various diffrent things but have to admit i'm stummped. Its almost as if when its in coverbase_mc its being hidden by the clips above it, if thats possible.The reasons I need it to work in coverbase_mc are for a) the overall look of the project b)I have some other buttons in that location that need to work from there.

I have a movie clip which has several objects including text adjusted nicely. This is like a template type movie clip which I need to use it on around 15 layers with some modifications (Like text, images, calendar etc.). And I called it a "GenericPanel_mc".To use it in another layers, I am just duplicating that "GenericPanel_mc" to say, Home_mc, Project1_mc, Project2_mc, ..........Project15_mc.... so on.But when I tried to change the Header Text of Home, It changes the header text of all my Projects.

I have a demo/spec file I'm working with (download the .fla here): [URL] I'd like to have a movie clip (FLV) start playing AFTER the animation stops playing. I know once I bring the clip in, I'll have to give it an instance name and reference it in AS, but I'm not just not sure exactly how to start. I feel like the whole timeline thing traps me up...

I'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.

I have a product by IMTOO.com that converts AVI files to SWF files. I used it, and I also specified that I wanted the final file to be small. The final file plays OK in flashplayer 10, but the control bar is all black. You don't see any controls on it such as 'play', 'pause' and 'maximize'.Now there is a menu you can get by right-clicking on the movie. That gives you 'play' and 'pause', but not maximize.My question is, why is this happening. Why can't I see controls on the control bar, and why can't I maximize at all, even with the right-click menu?

how to create a short video to play before the user clicks on a video to watch. Kinda like a short advertisement (for our department) when the viewer wants to watch one of our football games.
With the help of another user here, I was able to get a video player to work using an xml list containing all of the video file names, once the title is clicked in the .swf file the player plays that video file.
xml file
Code:
<root>
<video>
<filename>UA029_Fb_1929_WA.flv</filename>
<title> WSU VS UW 1929</title>
<description></description>
[Code]....
so what I am trying to achieve is to have a short clip play every time a person wants to watch a video.
Also, Is there a way to create some type of text box in the swf player that will display all the metadata (game, year, score etc.) in that box?

i have a button with some code on it to play a movie clip when pressed. the movie clip should run until the last frame and then stop at the end where i have a stop action.what actually happens is the movie clip plays the first time the button is pressed but not the second time. the third time it plays again but not the fourth, the 5th time it plays etc. etc.i have noticed that if i change the stop action to a gotoAndStop(1) action the film plays everytime without problems. but what i need is it to play everytime and then stop at the end without going back to frame one until the button is clicked once more.
