I am trying to insert an xml swf portfolio into my main fla file... could some kind person talk me through it?
I have tried inserting into the stage, and inserting into a movie container but no luck.
I made a little movieclip animation, it can be seen on [URL]. I have written the code for it but then have realised that I need to insert a link to the images, each image is supposed to have its own link. When I go to insert a button flash somehow decides to ignore part of the code I wrote and not function properly therefore I cannot have a link and a working animation going on at the same time. The worst thing is that I need to put two separate links in the same movie clip. Is there any way of doing it so it wont disturb the code? or maybe is there a way to insert a link to the images?
View 6 RepliesWhen I wanted to insert a SWF into a PowerPoint 2007 presentation, I would use the More Controls dialog in PowerPoint's Developer tab to insert a Shockwave/Flash object. But in PowerPoint 2010, that control is missing from the dialog. Where did it go? When I click the Register Custom DLL, there's no obvious file to choose, either.
Has anyone else run into this? I'm not looking for a way to convert a SWF into a video that can be embedded or using a 3rd-party plug-in or anything like that. I know how to do those things. I'm specifically looking to insert a SWF using only what's built into PowerPoint and Flash
I've remarked on the web that many clips are precede by an advert. Does this advert is added in the code? Or, there is a way to tell the player to play first, the advert, and secondly the movie?

View 5 RepliesIs it possible to dynamically load a flex component, compiled as a swf file into a .fla file. Originally, this flex component can be loaded as a standalone flex application with parameters to connect to the appropriate server. But now a customer of mine wants to integrate this flex component (originally inserted in a flex application) in a custom flash application, thus in .fla file using Adobe Flash CS4.
I've seen that it was possible to integrate a flash animation created with Adobe Flash CS4 in a flex application. But what I need to do is the opposite.
When I insert my object into my scroll pane it does not center.
View 3 RepliesI have a website that I created using a flash template from Hostgator. I have the text portion complete and now want to add some of my own pictures into a slide show or gallery on a serperate page linked to my site. Is there a way to do so. have little experience using them. I thought I could insert the slide show directly into the template like an HTML page.My site is live now and it will give you a better understanding of what I want because I am pretty ignorant when trying to describe issues that I have.My goal would be to have a seperate page not linked to the bones buttons on the top, just a page that I have in my public html folder that are hyper linked to words in the website itself

View 5 RepliesI just learned how to make a basic slideshow of images where one image shows for 3 seconds and then fades out and then a new one fades in, on and on. I imported my images, converted each image to a movie clip symbol and now they're arranged in my timeline. I need to add a NEW image at the very beginning of the the timeframe. I keep trying to Insert --> Frame, etc., but I'm not seeing a new first position in the timeline where my image will go. I'm used to video editing timelines and Flash is a real challenge for me.
View 1 Repliesjust can't understand why Adobe has not corrected this very basic bug since ages. So, the thing is Windows users tend to love, GOT USED TO using CTRL+INSERT and SHIFT+INSERT for copy and paste operations.Yyyeeas I know, that under Keyboard shortcuts I can define my own shortcuts, but the real problem is, that even after the Shortcut manager eats shift insert as a paste hotkey, it just fails to function.CTRL INSERT works like a charm, but SHIFT INSERT as Paste DOES NOT.AAARRRGGHHH. ADOBE PLEASE CORRECT THIS ERROR TO ALLEVIATE THE PAIN!

View 8 RepliesI have a flash drop down menu inserted. When the drop down menu overlaps the main flash graphic below it, the flash navigation malfuctions. You cannot select a page to go to on the drop down. These are two seperate flash files. The navigation flash file is used on every page, whereas the intro flash file is only used on the home page. The navigation works perfectly on other pages where there is no other flash file.
View 4 RepliesWhen I create a TLF text area that is editable at runtime (which means that it can get a user input at runtime) I set the text direction to the 'right-to-left' definition in both the 'container and flow' and the 'paragraph' sections and set the language for Arabic or Hebrew at the 'locale' setting. I also set the text alignment to the 'align to start' mode. Now at runtime there's a stange thing. When I try to click with the mouse cursor on the editable TLF text-box, it's not displaying the text icon cursor and don't allow me to insert text inside.
But when I move my mouse cursor over the right side of the editable TLF text box, it change his appearance to the familiar text cursor which indicate that if you click here you will be able to insert text input inside. So my problem is how can I make it that only when I will hover over the TLF text box itself, the mouse cursor will be changed to text cursor icon and when I will hover beside its right side, it will remain at the normal cursor mode.
Its been a while since my last post and i apologise if this has come up before, but what im basically trying to do is insert (not load) a swf into my main fla file. I have my home page (index.fla) and i've downloaded this cool image viewer or slideshow, and i want to insert that into my index.fla file. What I've tried so far. I've inserted a movie clip and named it imageViewer, I then imported (to stage) viewer.swf. This does not work. Something that looks nothing like the image viewer briefly pops up when i run index.fla.

View 9 RepliesI've finished my flash file. I created it with Flash CS3. I didn't use any scripting, dynamic stuff, etc.. It's a simple flash movie of vectors/tweening.I want to insert it in my homepage, but when I publish it, I get quite a lot of code. I've been looking around & I see some sites that have all this javascript & some that don't.Could someone help me identify the correct way to embed my .swf file? I'm not a fan of .js since it doesn't work if it's turned off in a user's browser. I want my .swf file to play as long as the visitor has Flash 8 or higher installed. And if they don't, I want to display a .png instead.[code]

View 1 RepliesI use a handful of shortcuts daily while developing in Flash on OSX. The shortcuts I use the most are when I'm working on the timeline with key frames. F5, f6, F7 etc. However, I cannot use the F6 key to insert keyframes. It's not an option as a shortcut in the drop down and the option to change or assign it is grayed out in the Keyboard Preferences menu.My first thought is that I have another program running or setting in OSX that's blocking that ability or overriding it. I have tried reinstalling CS4 entirely with no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions of how to track down the problem? It's a huge time killer when doing animation.
