Making Flash Movie Accessible For Screen Readers?
Jul 12, 2009
I have just finished a flash movie for a client which is an interactive payslip to explain all the different sections. They have got back to me and said it's great but I need to make this accessible for screen readers etc, and sent me the following link: [URL]. I have read through it all and I am slightly confused as to now how to make my complete movie accessible. Can I just add in the text links on the Accessible panel for the movie clips or will I have to create a whole separate column of hidden content for people to tab through?

Is a command for AS2 to make my movie file play fullscreen (stretch, fit to screen, anything).
goFullScreen(); is great but it leaves white bars left and right. What's odd is that I'm using Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder and it seems to display a perfect widescreen that I want as an input and output but once compiled in flash, it's more square leaving me with white bars left and right. The frame for the video in flash is also widescreen looking.
edit: I ended up stretching the width of the frame but if there is a better way through a command that would make my life easier so I don't have to adjust to every monitor that I run this on.

I am using the flv player component and am having trouble adding the players buttons to the tab order.I opened the FLA for the skin I am attaching to the component, and individually selected the play, close caption and full screen button and assigned them each a tab order number within the Accessibility window. I also selected the "make object accessible" checkbox for each button within the Accessibility window. Doing that didnt seem to work, so I looked further and found that there is an accessibility class and I have now tried to utilize that class with the following code:
import fl.accessibility.ButtonAccImpl;ButtonAccImpl.enableAccessibility();
but still dont seem to be doing something right?does anyone have experience accessibility and the flv player component?

I have a contact form, made up from several input text fields (for: name, e-mail...etc). And the flash site which contains the form starts in full screen, but full screen mode I am unable to input any text in the text field (the cursor appears in the field but as I type no letters appear). But as I switch to normal screen the form works fine.

How I can create function on server-side, that returns users count reading current stream. For example:
Client.prototype.returnStreamCount = function(streamName){
??????????????????
return count;
}
I read all server-side API, and find only one function:
getLiveStreamStats() - but how to use it on server?

My question is what needs to be done in order to make a .swf file go into full screen without falling to a black screen when a movie is played? I have tried coding it, however I come up with the following error.
[Code]....
What should I do to fix this? This is not going to be an HTML file, however, so the initial thought of changing the publish settings does not seem to work this time.

I'm working on a Flash video slideshow (which you can preview here).
I would like to be able to make it so you can click a button (I've got one made in the doc already) that will make just the video on each "slide" go full screen, similar to how you can do so with other videos on sites like YouTube and others.
While what I've linked to above is just a template I'm messing with, I'd like to be able to have a video on the right, let's say, with text on the left, and then be able to click a button (perhaps under the video that says "full screen) and have the video that is there fill the whole window and play. And then, hitting escape would bring you back.
I've seen plenty of tutorials for making Flash go fullscreen, but nothing out there yet for just the FLV contained on the page go full screen.

So I have an html page that contains a link which opens another html page with a swf embedded in it. In the swf, the user has to type in some information in order to advance through the swf. The problem is that in order to type in information, the user has to click inside the swf in order to make it work. Is there a way to make the swf automatically active so that they don't have to click inside the window first? [URL]
That's the link and I hope it opens for you if you want to see it. This is the HTML that opens after you click on the link inside the main HTML.

I've built my first flash application and it's very close to being finished. I have a problem with two buttons that are on the are on the left and right of the stage. When the browser is enlarged these buttons don't remain on the edge of the browser. Not sure if I explained that very well so here is a link to the application [URL] if you make you browser wider you will see my problem.

I have a map of the UK with all the counties and i was wondering how I would go about making a rollover flash movie. I specifically need it to highlight the county when the mouse is over that county and a little box to appear with the county name in it. Like an ALT tag I dont want someone to tell me exactly how to do it just some tips on how i would go about this. Is there an image mapping tool in Flash. Or how would i go about marking out the coordinates for each of these areas.

I am using an XML Gallery on my website and I would like to make it full screen (take up the entire browser) -- instead of its current size. I have played around with the code for hours and pulled most of my hair out and STILL I have no luck on making it fullscreen... I get the positions changed but I can't manage to enlarge it to the whole browser.
Here is my code used to align the holder on the stage and the gallery components (bttnPrev and bttnNext are on the left and right of the image to control movement to other images):
Code:
alignPic = function () {
holder._x = (stageW-holder._width)/2;
holder._y = (stageH-holder._height-menu_mc._height)/2;
bg_mc.bg._x = holder._x;
[Code]....

I'm being asked if some resources I created can be made accessible. Currently each resource is the exact same launch.swf, but each is pulling from a different xml file. I'm so proud of myself! But now it looks like you can't dynamically generate accessilbe resources. I'm being asked for the alt.text equivalent of various text boxes, while the actual content of each box depends on multiple factors.

I am working on a browser project for the blind in my university. For swf files, I am trying to access the contents of an SWF and parse so that screen readers can use it to read it aloud. I was successfully able to extract static text using swfutils.jar from inside the Flex SDK. But I was wondering if the following i spossible : Given a flash webform, I should be able to move the through the fields using 'Tab' and then read out the buttons ( by extracting associated text), and read it aloud so that the user can click the required button.. I hope I am clear with my problem description..

I've got Captivate movies dynamically loading into a Flash movie. The problem is, the tab index which works so well when the Captivate movies are in stand-alone mode falls apart when loading the Captivate movie into a Flash shell. I've tried tabEnabled=false and tabChildren=true for the movie clip that contains the Captivate movie, but with no results. Does anyone know how to get the focus manager to tab to objects in a Captviate movie when that movie is running in a Flash shell?

I am pulling my hair out trying to make my simple flash file link to a URL and nothing I have tried will work. I am making a transparent box on the top layer of my file, making it a movie clip and adding the code
on (press){
getURL("http://www.trimergence.com/staging/news.html");
}
The action says it has no errors, but when I export the move, my cursor turns to a hand but goes no where when I click.

I'm trying to make a simple text animation but the background won't go away from my exports. I need to make a movie file (.avi or .mov) and nothing is letting me remove the white space in the background.Things I have tried:
Go to Publish settings > HTML > Window mode: Trasparent Windowless
Result: White background remains
Make a .mov and in Quicktime Export Settings checkmark Ignore Stage Color (generate alpha)
Result: This time, everything was black (text was black too so it probably blended withthe background[code].....
So far nothing works so what is the deal with flash not comprehending with a clear background in movie files?

I'm making a game in actionscript using the FlashDevelop tool and the FlashPunk game engine. I have a designer making movie clips for me to put into this game using Flash CS3.
My problem is that when I add these movie clips into my game they are playing much quicker than they should. Is there a specific frame rate clips need to be made in within CS3 or any other export options set to enable them to play at the correct speed or is this something that I need to deal with in my code.
EDIT
Another problem that I'm having is that the command movieClip.stop() doesn't work. Is there anything special that needs doing while exporting or the programming side?
EDIT
Here is how I'm loading in my swfs:
public var movieClip:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
private var myLoader:Loader;
public function MyMovieClip(location:String)
{

The problem is related to my project MovieMaker .Users can upload the photos and based on the photos uploaded the xml is generated and the user can apply transition effects and can add songs also to make a movie.Finally when the Movie is generated then the problem occurs.The problem is that the movie created still needs the Xml file for fetching the images and songs.But To any user who has applied the transition effects and uploaded songs and images,I want to give him only swf file nothing else.no xml,no images,no songs.Means The song,images,etc which are coming from xml should be contained in the library of the generated swf.How can I do that ??

I am making items that minimize onto the side of the screen as little icons, I have that figured out. What i am trying to accomplish is making them minimize to a dynamic spot if there is not already one there. There a bunch of posistions that they could minimize to, i would like them to choose the next highest avaliable spot. Heres some code that will make them do that:
Code:
var minspots:Array = [60, 100, 140, 180, 220, 260];
var minspotstaken:Array = [false, false, false, false, false, false];
_global.sizedown = function(target:MovieClip) {
[code]....
It almost appears as if the tween action for the "_y" is holding its first value, as it always goes back to where it went when the movie loads.

I'm making a game where little parcels appear and if they aren't dragged to the correct zone within 5 seconds, they disappear and the player loses points. The problem i'm having is that i'm generating the movieclip parcel objects as follows:
[Code]...
currentParcel is 1 of 3 (randomly selected) movieclip names (redParcel, yellowParcel and orangeParcel).
What I need to do is add some code to say "after a movieclip has been generated...if it is still here in 5 seconds time. It sounds simple but I can't figure it out for the life of me! I've tried setInterval with something like: timedProcess = setInterval(timeCheck, 5000);
but how can I pass the actual movieclip "handle" along with the function so that timeCheck knows which movieclip to delete?

I have a movieClip, with other movieClips inside of it, objects that I want when hit to lose points. But when I have the movieClips inside that one, it just has a giant "boundry box". I want the points to go down when you hitting only one of those items,instead it just goes does throughout the entire thing.
There is no way for me to scroll all those objects across the screen without either making a tween on the main timeline for each object (almost 20), or somehow making a giant movieClip scroll all of them all the way across, bypassing the first boundry box, and acknowledging the movieClips.
