This probably a stupid question, but I really can't figure it out.But I'm creating a XML Flash site. I can easily edit text and such with the XML file, but I'm trying to imbed a youtube video on the second page of the site, but for the life of me I cannot locate the second page in the .fla file.How can I locate allt he pages within the site? I've tried moving the 'playhead' but that didn't work.I found what I think is the menu that contains the links to the differnet pages in the site. But how do I go into the different items to view/edit the contents.
I am trying to create a personal portfolio website using Flash CS4. Understand that there are a number of ways to create web pages using Flash. One way is to create separate swf files for the web pages and load them when the web page is requested. Another way is to put the pages in separate frames in the same swf file or to use scenes and use gotoAndPlay(). Another possible way is to create separate movie clips for the web pages.
I am trying to get buttons to link to internal web pages and the flash to stop at the end but I am having difficulties. I put the correct action script in the actions tab, but it seems that they aren't working. The website is [URL]
I appologize if this is an overly simple question, but I am unable to find a clear answer elsewhere.
I have a movie created in Premiere Pro 1.5 and plan on exporting it in Flash format. The flash video will be stored on my server and linked from other web pages. The idea is to have the video open up in it's own window and not a full sized window. I have seen a variety of differnt display "players" on various web pages.
Do I have to use software outside of Premiere Pro to do this (Such as Flash CS4 Pro) or is this a matter of link coding with reference to the file location?
I'm working with Flash CS4 / ActionScript 3.0I just wanted to know how to link my finished flash ad to its corresponding webpage.-->Click anywhere on the banner and it links you to...youtube or whatever :]
I am trying to make a preloader for a swf file. The file has a button on it to proceed (skip the video) to next page and the video player itself. Its a f4v file around 8Mbs and 30seconds in length. When I try to make a preloader, simply it doesnt work. Is there a trick to make preloader s for Video files on web pages ?
Basically I have decided to make this webpage for a client on the left side is the navigationand when they click on some of the buttons, I would like for the MovieClip to load a website so every time a user clicks on the button then on the right side which has the movieclip it would load the URL? Is this possible?
Yesterday I was working in an exhaustive animation when the computer turned off. When I turned the PC on again there was a message about a recovery file. I opened the recovery file: it was the animation I was working with. I finished my work and closed the recovery file. Today I was looking for the file I was working with and I can't find it: Flash gives me just the original file not the recovery file.
Im working on an application for a website. When the user finishes entering all of the information into the Flass application, they press a button. I want it to open another page from that website and enter the information into it.
I'm building a site to showcase various engagement tools for the web. Most of what is involved is new to me. My biggest challenge is finding the right AS3 code to make buttons link to URLs. when I try to duplicate it and change the btn name, in order to make two, or three or four separate links to four unique buttons I get an error about trying to call the same function more than once. This is her code and as I said it works for one button link. Can it be made to work for multiple instances?
Right now all of my links use the Properties text link feature, which continues to deliver target=blank function despite my having deleted the target and saved and republished way more than once.
I have several buttons on my "Index.swf" file. I am calling the Index.swf file in Microsoft Publisher 2007 and created "Index.html" page.
In the same way I have several individual flash files like, About.swf, Contact.swf, And each files are in seperate webpages like, About.html, Contact.html.
Suppose, when I click on a button call "About" on Index.html page. The About.html page opens but in a different window. Not in the same window.
I would like to open a webpage by clicking on a button but in a same window. Don't want to open each webpage on defferent browser window. [code]...
I posted this on the Apache board, but after 4 days with no reply am still needing an answer so I thought I'd try here.
Needing a testing server I installed Apache 2.2 and PHP onto my Windows XP Laptop. That went great. However I can't run flash modules, like, for example, a video player streaming an FLV.
I was only able to install Apache and PHP by following directions, but don't really know much about such installs.
What do I need to do to make Apache run (display) flash?
I'm writing a small game app in Flash, and I'm wondering what the benefits of having one giant SWF loading everything vs multiple webpages and multiple SWF's.
I code primarily in PHP and Perl. I have a client who is insisting on seeking video submissions (any encoding) from the public via one of their pages rather than letting YouTube do its job.Server in question is a virtual machine and I can adjust ini settings for max post, max upload size etc as needed.My initial thought is to use a Flash based uploader with PHP on the back end but I wondered if someone might have useful advice and experience on the subject?
I have a flash application (a game) and it needs to pass data to a php page to save the user, and the user's score. However I don't want the user to be able to alter the score him/herself or to initial a scoring without using the application. What is the best way to do this?
The thing is I'm using a script I bought from Activeden.net which is awesome and works great for displaying external webpage's within you flash site.
However, there are a few issues. If you visit the link above (WEMI) and navigate to either "Till salu" or "Frmedlade hem" you'll notice that the popup is not positioned in the middle. Also, the popup only goes away if you interact with it, such as scrolling down or something like that. You can't just click on another button, say "Kontakta oss" and continue navigate. I just won't go away.
"You can call setInvisible(); through the popup reference (in the example called p) and to center it you can add a resize event listener to the stage and in the callback function set the x and y of the popup"[code]...
Gotta question about the combo box component included w/Flash MX 2004... The thing I'm trying to do is make a list/combo drop down navigation, so that when the user drops down the box and selects that item they are taken to another .html page... I have populated the box using and array by using the .push method & bound the data box via the .dataProvider method...
How do I link my 3 flash web pages (with: Flash9/actionscript3.0) ? What do I need to write in "actionscript"...in order for me to go in to my 2nd & 3rd page...on my web site...when I click the link button?
when I use the Edit/Find and Replace function, the results portion at the bottom doesn't reveal enough information under Location. I can see "Scene 'Scene 1' -> Layer ' " and that's all. I know if I click on that line the relevant window will open but when doing a "Find All" it's useful to know more information about the Location instead of clicking on every line. That Location column of the window will not widen with the drag icon. I can move the dividers from the other columns to the left but not to the right.
- I put the FLV file in the root folder of my website
- I use the 'import video' command in Flash
- I choose 'none' for the skin.
- Then I drag a pause/play button to the stage and customize it a bit.
- I export or publish to create a swf file.
- In the component inspector I have tried now several things for the source link: /mysitename/photoslideshow.flv and /users/myname/sites/mysitename/photoslideshow.flv
- In dreamweaver I choose insert SWF and select the SWF file that is next to the FLV file in the root folder of my website. I have tried both options relative to: document and site root.
- I check to make sure the webpage, flv and swf files are published to the server.
- The FLV MIME type is indeed enabled on my server.
- When going online get an error that it cannot find the FLV!
I tried a test with a FLV file I created and using just a regular skin. The same thing happens
I have solved this problem before the first time it happened to 'put' the ENTIRE site in dremweaver vs only the individual files. But this time I have also tried that to no avail.
How can I find a given bitmap pattern on a bitmap ( loaded jpeg )? Is there any flash classes / functions for this purpose?Here is the sample image and has 4 patterns.What I want is to get the bounding informations of the 4 patterns on the image ( x , y , width , height ).
I'm presently working with the trial version of CS5 while my work sorts out my new laptop and licence.One thing, hopefully simple, that is confusing me is that I can't find the animation panel. I would like to be able to apply motion presets while changing the properties of the preset. E.g. have a bounce over a longer time, with a shorter vertical drop, etc. Help files say to use the animation panel, Window > Interactive > Animation.But I can't find this. If I look in my Windows menu, I can't find a submenu called "Interactive". How can I find this panel?
I bought a web template and have been working my way through the included FLA file (using adobe flash professional css). I have figured out how to do most things but am stumped with one of the movies clips. If you go to the site you will see the image slideshow. The text I am trying to modify is the bottom right box. I was able to change the first round of text which I found in a movie clip called obj 12. The problem is the I cannot find the text after that "Perfect solutions for every space" and so on. I have all the layers visable for obj 12 (everything under the eye is unchecked) and everything under the lock is unchecked. I see layer for the two lines of images which I was able to change but then there are no other layers for the other text. I went through every image/clip in the library
- Is there a way to click on something in my project---a symbol or a sound clip I have already placed from the library---and find out which particular library element it is?
- Can I play sound from the library window, to preview it before placing?
In this tutorial : [URL]...it is said about something for color effect in properties pane. I can see the property pane but I can't find Color Effect. I'm using Flash Professional CS5.5. P.S.- This was my first Flash Tutorial (and that's really first one.)
Is it true that Google cant recognize text paragraphs etc within a flash website ? Theres been mixed opinions about this whereas im able to see it identifying text within flash homepages that ive made. Is this because the text is also stored into the html counterpart when we hit publish ?
Of this is true then google cant see text in .swf files that contain text but load into a container flash file. Eg. the home page contains the html counterpart. But then hitting enter loads another swf into the original html home page. In other words the file thats been external loaded doesnt have a html counterpart. Then google cant see text thats within those loaded .swf files ?
