I'm taking a snapshot from a webcam and adding a frame around this snapshot.I add the snapshot before to load the frame from a file. How can I swap between those objects? because the frame appears at last and the snapshot appears infront. I wanna swap those in the way that the snapshot appears at last and then the frame.
View 1 RepliesI basically have this and what I need to do, is when the user clicks on one of those boxes on the right, it'll appear in the yellow box on the left.
Each of those right boxes will be unique with different graphics. It'll basically be different graphics to be displayed on a T-shirt, which will be represented by the big black square.
Now I know that each of those graphics should be a button symbol with mouse click event, but I'm not really sure how to handle the event.
Should I just create a clone of that item and move it to the target area? Or is it possible to create some kind of blank placeholder where I could just display it?
I'm trying to achieve this result:[URL]... The menu stays the same size yet the background images scale proportionately. I'm assuming that the background is a uiloader?
Does anyone know the as3 code that will work for this? I've seen a very similar post on this forum, as a matter of fact I used his/her example.
Does anyone know how to create an action that will allow a text overlay to appear with the source image from a UIloader? I'm considering just editing the image itself to include the text but am hoping to reduce file size.
View 3 RepliesI'm creating a UI which utilizes UILoader component to load content that I won't have control of.The "window" where I want content to appear is 950 x 420. Doing a simple test, I created a .swf with a stage size that matched, but with content bleeding over the edge of the stage.To ensure users only see what's on the stage of the loaded content - and not what's bleeding off - would the correct action be to create a mask for the UILoader instance? Are there any alternatives to using a mask? Like a property or something? (I didn't see anything.)

In my game currently I have a series of UILoaders which can be set to load a specific swf file inside the larger one. What Im trying to do is manipulate the 'child' swf file from the parent- in particular use the goToAndPlay() function. Im pretty sure Ive seen the solution before but I cant find it now.
How make the connection from the UILoader class to its contents as a movieClip?
I have a lot of external SWF files loading into my flash site using one UILoader on different labeled sections. I used only one UILoader component (with the same name) and then kept on scaling and repositioning it on different labeled sections. Everything worked fine until the very end for some reason some of the UILoaders jump to its own position and I can not seem to do anything about it. I can not figure out where the mistake could have been.

When Flash starts up, the default color picker looks like this: I have accidentally somehow made mine look like this:And I have no idea how I did this, how to do it again, or how to get it back to the default.
All my web searches come up with a lot of stuff about coding my own color pickers or importing new ones and stuff. I just want to switch between these two modes: I would like mine back to the default, and my coworker would like hers (stuck on the default!) to look like mine.
I am looking to create an area on my homepage that swaps images every 5 seconds and also has a play/pause and next feature for the view to choose if they want to click through or pause on an image.

View 6 RepliesI have a VERY big animation, with a huge amount of keyframes, and I like to swap a symbol in this animation with another one. If I just use the swap button on the first frame, Flash only swaps the symbol for the first tween, whereas I have hundreds of tweens in my file... So how do I do this for every keyframe in every tween ?
I'm having an issue with the UiLoader, I think. I am using a UiLoader to show the portfolio section of my website. When I click on portfolio there is nothing there. Brought UiLoader to stage from the component panel> in the component inspector I set the source to Portfolio.swf> Test movie> it works great. In dreamweaver I draged the swf from the folder panel and placed it in a table> uploaded it to the site> go to the site, and there is no portfolio section. See the site here -> [URL]. I noticed when I made changes and uploaded to the web then went to the site I have to delete internet history files to get the swf to reload. What do I do about that? Off the top of my head I thought about changing the swf name everytime I make any changes, but I'm sure there is another way.
View 3 RepliesI'm looking for a plugin or command so I can swap all the colors in a selected symbol. the find and search thing doesnt quite do it well.

Ineed it for flash pro 8, I know its old.

I have created a swf (exporting) that have action script that adds childs to the stage. When i export the file and see the result it is all ok. But when i use de same file inside a uiloader the action script seems not to work because de childs doenst apeear in the stage.
View 23 RepliesI have 170 images that I need to place on the same place on the left side of the stage and and have them move across the stage one at a time, increase in size and then fade out after 10 sec. The sequence then continues for all 169 images. My initial thoughts are to animate the first image inside a movie clip, duplicate it and swap the image. When I tried this it worked fine until the image had shape tweened to the larger size (at this point the image displays for 10 sec and fades out). At the key frame at this point the image changed back to the original one. What do I need to do to make the new image visible throughout the whole movie clip when I swap the image like this? Is there a better way to produce this type of animation? I am using Flash Professional 8 and quite new to the world of Flash and Action Script.
View 14 RepliesThis is to be exported into a movie, so not an Actionscript question. I'm making a parody of a fighter-game scenario. One character looks like Subzero and the other like Scorpion. They're the same models but one should be colored differently. They're comprised of symbols such as arms and legs to make a larger overall character animation. There are several animations of them, for kicks, punches, bobbing, etc. Now, I know that if I went in and edited the colors, that all instances would change accordingly. Duplicating the symbol doesn't work because they share the same inner symbols. Is there a method for "deep" duplication? A tint doesn't work because essentially I only want to change the color of some of the components.

I have issues with the buttons working from the SWF file which is brought into the main flash site via UILoader.
[Code]...
I gathered that it is most probably due to the fact that I have constructed a button in the improper way.I tried to redo a button but it was the same result.I would like to try to access it through the main timeline. What would be the whole block of code to put a function on the button located inside an external SWF which is called in via a UILoader?
Is there is keyboard shortcut for "swap symbol"? or a way that I can set the shortcut for it, I couldn't find it in the shortcuts list.

I can only bring it back by clicking on something NOT GROUPED on scene, or by clicking the red line on the timeline.Note: This problem seems to be not occuring when I go back to the scene via the blue arrow icon pointing left at the top or by clicking the scene name.

It does'nt need any navigation like this example, but it's going to just an animationmovie.This animation is going to be viewed on a widescreen tv. How do I make the animation fit the screen?

How can I implement this? I tried to use: (this.numChildren - 1)But it doesn't work. I want to use this code because I have 8 boxes, each are 100px X 100px. You hover each box and they flip over but the "backside" of these cards are larger in both length and width than the front. When they flip over they overlap the neighbouring card. I'm looking for some sort of script so that I can tell each card to align itself above the other cards on the stage.
