View 9 RepliesI have a client who has a Flash project that was used for a cd rom. The flas are 1000 x 1043. I need to know the best way to be able to save the entire presentation for the web. I already tried re saving the flas publishing in percentage that doesn't work. If I make the actual stage smaller the mc's and all dimensions would have to be made smaller manually am I correct.
View 1 RepliesI just started working CS4 and finished my firest simple web page([URL]), nearly the way I wanted. Having little or no action code experience, I did what I could. Then CS4 was upgraded to CS5. When I opend the CS4 project and saved it to CS5 (making it irreversible), the preloader that worked in CS4 did not work in CS5.
View 2 Replies- I create a new fla file in Flash CS5 Professional,- I go to publish settings and select AIR2 as the target- I click the Settings button on the rightThese settings are supposed to be saved with the fla file, since all of them are related to the project.Application name, icons, files to include, etc, are all preferences related to the fla file of which you are editing the settings.However, when you go to the "Signature" tab and select a digital certificate to sign the air application with, this setting will NOT be saved into the file.Instead, whenever you publish ANY air application, it will use by default the lastcertificate you have used, even if you used it to publish _another_ application.That is absurd, because this is a tab within the "publish settings" and all publish settings are specific to a fla file.
View 2 RepliesI am making a site for a client and he requires an editable form. It would need at least 10 editable text boxes and then I would need to have a way to save it and publish it to the website. (The client would be the only one editing so I don't really know what to do as he doesn't have any of the Adobe tools used to edit the site)
1) How do I make an editable form?
2) After the site is finished my client will need to keep adding things, is this possibe or will he have to send the files to me and haveme edit the site myself?
3) How do I make it so my client will be the only one who can edit this?

View 2 RepliesI created a simple button that displays an error messeage: "error opening 'url" when I test the movie, but does play and opens in browser after publishing. However, it won't open in the browser in a different location. I pasted the html code in a web page but it doesn't work there nor opens in the browser in a differnet location from where it was originally published and saved. Why is that?
View 13 RepliesI was editing an FLA file which was Read Only due to our versioning system (P4) however, when I did not have a file checked out (therefore was Read Only), I did not get an error when I saved the file (there was even a save progress bar!) - yet when I opened the file again, all the information I had "Saved" was not there. I tested this out on several other non-checked out files (read-only files) and I was still able to hit "save" on all of them - but it did not actually save the file. In none of these instances was I alerted that I was trying to edit a read only file.
View 1 RepliesI am testing Flash CS4 at the moment, but something is wrong with it. What I did hundreds of times in CS3, here it just doesn't work.I used Adobe Media Encoder to make F4V from AVI. Then I imported that file to flash (load external video with playback component). Then I previewed it (ctrl+enter) and everything was fine, but once I saved (or published) it, the movie didn't play anymore. There was just background and no movie nor playback component.I tried encoding that file to FLV, even for older flash versions (I have the newest one installed), but that didn't help.
View 5 RepliesHow do you increase the size of an entire movie into an actual swf file? I note that increasing the stage size increases the "frame" that the movie opens in, but does not increase the size of the movie itself. I find a lot of stuff on the internet about sizing a flash movie using html embedding, and perhaps that is what I need...but what I really mean is change the size of the whole movie before it is saved as an SWF and within Flash itself. Is there a simple way to do this? I mean, once you have the movie in place but have simply not saved it to SWF yet. Again, I note that cghanging "size" on document properties enlarges the frame that the movie opens in but not the movie itself.
View 4 RepliesI have downloaded the latest flash pro cs5.5 package and installed it on 3 different windows XP machines and I get the same bad result. This is Flash Pro 11.5.0.325 on XP SP3.
I made a small slideshow swf consisting of two jpeg images and nothing else. No music or other bells or whistles.Just 2 images converted to symbols, some keyframe/tween definitions with altered alpha channels.The slideshow runs perfectly and as I expect.
I save the slideshow as a .fla file.I need to add some more functionality from this plateau to show that the product can do what we need to the boss.
When I later load this .fla file, I don't see my graphics on the stage anymore. I right-click on the images and click on the option in the dialog to update the images. I see that the white stage now has the image I expected. When I close the dialog that lets me update the image flash pro abends and I get the crash dialog from microsoft.

FLV files are not getting saved at the particular location mentioned in the application.xml file on FMS. Instead we are getting log in the log folder and instance which is joined to the FMS in the http folder on the FMS. Is their any way to find out why we are not getting saved those files at that location?

View 1 RepliesI'm using AS3 in timeline. I can't make a SharedObject display saved information. I have several frame labels (parte1, parte2... parte20). On parte8 I have a movie clip (whole_master), which contains three children movie clips placed on a separate frames (level_1, level_2, level_3). I would like to save the level of a game a user ends up with or exits the game. Then, we user returns and be able to go to the level he/she was playing.PROBLEM: The movie clip is on frame parte8, which isn't the first frame. However, when the user re-starts the game, the Shared Object should be read on frame 1.[Code].....
View 0 RepliesI'm now able to create a .sol file which stores the variables required to continue a game where a player left off.
Now, I don't know how to retrieve the saved information back into the game.
I'm using Flash MX.
Here's my situation:
The game stores six vaiables when a button is pressed:
SaveFile = SharedObject.getlocal("gameinfo");
SaveFile.data.str = player.str;
SaveFile.data.fir = player.fir;
SaveFile.data.end = player.end;
[Code].....
Now, I have a button, named "LoadButton_bt", which, when pressed, I wish to have the game load the saved variables in "gameinfo.sol". The tutorial on the web site by Jesse Stratford doesn't explain how to retrieve the data from a .sol object. I'm sure there's a simple code to accomplish this. Can someone help me with the script?
Remember, I'm a novice non-programmer who just managed to learn this much by self-education and research and asking questions like this which probably have obvious answers to pros like you guys, so talk down to me!

I've created a SharedObject on My Computer, saved it in a movie, and ran the movie again and data came up well enough.My problem is, I want to delete the SharedObject saved on my hard-drive. I currenly have Flash 8, and Flash MX 2004 uses the .sol extention, but I can't find the SharedObject anywhere on my computer. With the release of Flash 8, did they change the SharedObject file extention? Is there a way to set up the path to which SharedObjects should be saved in your script file? The second parameter of the getLocal() method, stores a URL. Is that the same as a directory on your computer?
