I recently started working with adjusting a template with flash 8. Everything went smoothly except for one thing. I changed one certain symbol in my libray and when i exported the movie (after changing) i dont see the changes in my website. Other buttons, symbols etc immediatly show there adjustments and this just keeps on remaining the same?

View 5 RepliesAll I want to do is make a text button show another symbol? Basically, I have 16 icons which I want to eventually be buttons as well, and I want to show them in two different orders. So I have my two buttons for the different orders, and I have my icons in the orders as two different layers, and I've tried using the code snippets to show the icons but I keep getting an error message and it doesn't work, instead my buttons disappear. I just want to be able to click a button and the order of my icons changes.

View 6 RepliesI know there is a new grounds link about setting your publishing settings to get animated gifs to work with flash. I am using CS4 and when I go to publish the gif works in the html document. But when I export to an animated gif it is still a still picture. I have also tried to export to a quicktime file and it's is a still picture there too and distorted. Should exporting to png or gif sequence work as well?

View 3 RepliesI am a beginner at using Flash, so this may be a dumb question, just a warning.
When I create a motion tween and enter in a value for where I want the symbol to go, it never goes to where I entered. Example, every time I try to get a symbol to go from (308, 238) to (308, 233), it replaces the 233 with 218 and I can't figure out why.
I created a motion preset of a 3D text animation that made the text swing back and forth like a gate with the hinge on the far left side. However, when I apply the motion preset to other text, the text moves to a new location and the text swings closer to the center than the far left side. Moving the text only creates a travel path that further complicates matters.
what am I doing wrong with the motion preset? How can I save something into a preset and apply it to other things and have the animation work the way it was designed?
I created an illustration in Illustrator, imported it into Flash, and converted it to a movie clip symbol. I added a keyframe at frame 20 and stretched its shape a bit. Then I created a classic tween from keyframe 1 to keyframe 2, and the resulting animation doesn't animate at all; it sits there from frames 1 to 19, and then jumps to the new position at frame 20.

View 4 RepliesI have a head drawn in Adobe Flash CS5. I've converted it to a symbol. I want to be able to draw a mouth, add a frame, erase the mouth (without erasing the head), and draw a new mouth, and repeat. However, when I convert the head to a symbol the mouths I draw ontop of it do not show up, and appear behind the head. I know converting the mouths into symbols will fix this, but that would take too long, defeating the purpose of what I'm trying to do.Is there any way to draw on a symbol?

I can't seem to add more than one bone to a "Symbol" but I need to. For example I have the "body" symbol and I need to start the bone at the neck and then drag it to the waist/hip area, but when I drag the bone from the neck area to the waist it won't let me attach the boneto the waist hip area of the same symbol. Why is this? I've seen this done in a tutorial but I don't know how to do it.
How can I rig the character in the image so the legs are attached to a wiast or hip area?
1st bone - Start a bone at the head, then drag to the neck.
2nd bone - Drag the bone from the neck to the waist.
3rd bone - From the waist to the hip.
4th bone - From the hips to the legs.
I am developing a flash movie for a college professor whouses a lot of equations in her presentations. I was wondering ifthere was an easy way to add greek letters and other math symbolsto a normal flash text box, or if it was possible to do anythingremotely similar to this.
View 1 RepliesI have completed a bunch of keyframes with 2 symbol on each moving around. Now I want to add another symbol that will be static. That is, at the same position in each keyframe.
How can I add the new symbol to 250 keyframes that are already set and already have 2 symbols in each?
I can see how to do it one by one... but there must be a better way than that. selecting a herd of keyframes and pasting in the new symbol, ends up only effecting which ever one has the play head.
I also realize I should have put this final symbol in at the start but too late now. So how can I insert a new symbol in 250 keyframes all at once?
Is there anything a graphic symbol can do, that a movie clip can't? So many tutorials I look at, use Movie Clips for so many things, including one frame objects, and buttons etc...So, is there any benefit to ever using a graphic symbol over a movie clip?

View 7 RepliesI am in the process of updating all of my symbols in a project I am working on, and found that some of the objects are set to temporary paths, I guess I had just imported from the clipboard, as opposed to importing an actual saved file.
Anyway, there is one particular graphic object that, according to my library, is in use in 1 place in my project, but I can't for the life of me find where that is. Is there any way to locate instances of objects in the library? Or am I going to have to go through my entire project, piece by piece?
