Professional :: Enlarging Text In XSPF Player W/Flash CS5?
Nov 6, 2010
I took a class in Flash way back when it first came out. I haven't used it since then until I recently got the CS5 version for a specific task. I'm revising a small site which includes articles about musicians and sound clips of their work. The mp3 player I'm using is the open-source XSPF Player. It has a clean minimal look that fits my page design. The only problem is the text size inside the player that shows the artist name, song title, etc. It's way too small. I contacted one of the people who has released a modified version of this player, and he said yes it would be no problem to modify the .swf file to display the text differently. However, when I open the player with Flash, the tools are grayed out. I explored all the options on the menus and panels without finding a way to get at the insides of this player. I've two options here: 1-Get specific advice from one of you who has used Flash more than I have, or 2-Get advice about the location a good tutorial. I tried Googling the info I need but didn't get useful results

I'm trying to embed this player to a web page:
[URL]
It's working fine, but I would like to remove the album cover from the player so it looks like on this page:
[URL] (The gray player in the right column, not the player in the center of the page)
I looked at the documentation and also the source of this page

I'm creating a new look for the xspf player: [URL]The playlist highlights the current song being played. I'd like to change the color but can't find where that option is listed in the .flv file, or in the actionscript file.

I am adding buttons to a rectangle movieclip with actionscript. With every addition I am increasing the height of the rectangle to accommodate the new button. I use recMovieClip.height += 20; This increases the height of the movieclip but it also increases the size of the buttons which are children of the movieclip.

I want to create a Flash or animated video that starts with a red dot on a black background. Gradually the dot increases in size and is actually text which says something such as "Buy American". How can this be done?

I just upgraded to flash player 10.1 and there's an issue with a program that I've been working on. I'm copying text from a mysql table that is formatted with spaces and newlines (including spaces and newlines at the beginning of the text) into a textArea in Flex 3.5. Before the update,it worked fine. Now when AS retrieves the text from the table, it does not include the spaces and newlines at the beginning of the text.I'm using xml to retrieve the text.

we've started using a Flash-based customer management system at work, which we access as a Web service through Internet Explorer (I'm using IE6) and I have to enter each record's information (name, address, etc.) into an Excel spreadsheet.Our IT department has chosen not to develop data import/export capability for this system, so it's up to the end users to develop their own applications.I'd like to automate this data entry, so I'm trying to write a script that will access the Flash being displayed in the browser, and read/write various text fields from the screen.I've been using AutoIT for most of my scripting, but AutoIT doesn't have a way to read Flash objects.Is there some way to do this in JavaScript or some other common scripting language?

i have found that:
1. There has a subtle difference between a static text field in flash authoring tool which has been set to use the device font when it's got focus(state that user can type character in) and lose focus;
2. There also has a subtle difference between when it is being rendered in flash player and in flash authoring tool.(Note that the key factor here is setting the text field to use device font.)

I'm trying to show < and > in dynamic text fields, pulled in dynamically from an xml file. The text is embedded in a CDATA block and I use < and > to show them. This has worked fine with all previous versions of the Flash player, but Flash 10.1 seems to be trying to read this as html and does not display it.
Flash 10.0 displays this: Press <FN><F2> key sequence to...
Flash 10.1 displays this: Press key sequence to...

Here's what I am trying to do: zoom out (shrinking everything), while revealing more space to work with. What I did: Modify _xscale and _yscale. It worked, however the results are not what I expected. Problem: While this cause everything to shrink by the scale amount, the entire Stage shrunk as well. So my 700x425 flash is mostly empty, while the stage itself is being rendered in a small rectangle in the corner. I cannot move any objects outside of this small box. Most of the flash space is wasted. Is there any way to shrink the scale AND enlarge the Stage.width/height at the same time to zoom out and create more canvas space?

ok, i am attaching 6 pictures off stage dynamically using setInterval as a loop (so it will attach the clips once every x seconds). I'm positioning them in a line vertically, and then tweening them onto the stage with mc_tween2.Once the pics are in final position, the goal is this: 1.click on any pic and it will grow larger and position itself towards the center of the stage 2.click another pic and the last pic will shrink to original size and go back to it's original place.
#2 is where I'm having the problem. I've got the enlarging and repositioning working, and i can get the last pic to move back, but it won't go to the right place. In every variation i try, it either goes to the first position in the vertical stack, or the last position. The closest i can get to what i want is to swap the last clicked picture with the position of each picture as you click on them.basically how can i get Flash to remember the location of each pic, so when i click another pic, the last selected one will go back to it's original place?

I Managed to insert a photo gallery using lightbox...however, would like to make some changes:
1. Fixed previous and next buttons, been playing around with the code, with no successful result.
2. I have a group of photos, and if I want to enlarge the one I click, I cannot. Whatever photo I click, always the first one of the group appears.
This is the code I have in my html file:
HTML Code:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/lightbox.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
[Code].....

This has been going on for quite sometime and I've just neverfound any solution. On sites with Flash it asks me to download theplayer. I have the player already, but I download it anyway. Thebox on the Flash site shows that yes, I do have Flash installednow. Then I go back to the site that uses Flash and I'm back to thestart - download Flash Player.I can't understand why if it's on my computer, why the sitekeeps asking me to download it again, yet it shows I do have it onmy computer.I started to use Macromedia Flash 8 Training from the Source,James English, and needed to play Flash in one of the tutorials. Itsent me to the download site. I downloaded, shows the Flashmovement in the sample box that if you have Flash you will see itin the box. I go back to the Flash site and once again - wants meto download Flash.So it's just a continuous circle with no end.

how we can update the Flash IDE player, or the player used when testing a movie (sometimes called the Test Movie player)?In the case of CS3, when you download the latest sets of players and replace the "Players" folder, you'll still test the movie in version 9,0,115,0 As you might know, this player version has a bug: When loading an AS2 movie that has a MovieClipLoader into an AS3 movie, the AS2 movie's eventListeners for the MovieClipLoader fail.

I have tried countless times to install flashplayer 10 on my mac os x 10.4 (tiger) with no success. I have tried every troubleshooting suggestion, and at this point i am willing to try anything. This is what happens: I go to the adobe site and select the flashplayer 10 for my operating system. The flashplayer icon appears on my desktop and i double click it. I agree to the terms and click install It states that installation is successful. I then try to run a program and it says that i need to install flashplayer 10 in order for it to run, even though it says it has installed.
