Professional :: Loading Swf In Container In Illustrator?
Aug 17, 2010
On the Mac, everything works fine. I load a .swf into an ADM Flash Player Item in the Illustrator SDK and the .swf pulls some information from an options.xml file on local machine to create the UI.On Windows the .swf seemingly won't load info from other files on the computer. I can get the .swf to load inside the ADM Flash Player Item, but it seems like it can't access the options.xml file.When I run the .swf OUTSIDE of the illustrator container, everything works as it is supposed toI thought it might be a security/permissions issue, but wouldn't that come into play even when it's run outside of illustrator

I have a simple rectangle with a 3D-bevel effect built in Illustrator that I need to export as an FXG file for use in Flash.When I export from Illustrator to an FXG format, it creates bitmaps and embeds those in the FXG file.if i import directly into Flash CS5 there are transparent gaps (and the symbols created are very complex), and it warns me that the objects aren't compatible with flash and they should be converted to bitmaps firstIs there a way to export the object to an FXG file and keep it in a vector format?if not, and this may be an Illustrator question, is there a way to create the same kind of effect so that I can get an end FXG object that will work in Flash?

I upgraded from Flash CS3 to CS5. I am surprised to find I cannot export Flash graphics to a ".ai" format. Does anyone know of a way in CS5 to get Flash vectors to Illustrator?

I'm using the CS5 version of Flash Pro and Illustrator on a Window box running XP serv. Pk 3.These are the AI Import Preferences:I'm trying to import some text, grayscale with suitable stroke and drop shadow, from a finished Board in Illustrator. I've made PNG's, to allow for a transparent background, at both 300 and 600 ppi. I know these are large, but it doesn't matter too much in this movie. It worked well in the Color version.
When I bring them into Flash there is a distinct difference in the quality of each, of course, but both are jagged when transforming them down to the size needed. The ones at 600ppi are better but there is still a visual distortion due to the jaggedness.

I am creating artwork in Illustrator that I want to give someone else to bring into Flash.
1. What is the best format for making static graphics? Just a graphic symbol?
2. What about for graphics that will be converted into buttons in Flash? Does it matter if they are Graphics or Movie Clips in Illustrator?

I'm itching to find the most effective way of importing my illustrator vectors into flash but keeping the file size as small as possible. At the moment i'm literally copying my vectors in illustrator and pasting them in Flash, it clearly works but the file sizes seem really high and its hindering the performance of my fla. Is there a more effective way of exporting? or optimizing the imported vectors once they're inside flash?

I have just moved to CS5 and have found that an important part of my workflow has been compromised as a result. Whereas I love to use Flash as a drawing tool and move elements from here to illustrator, then from Illustrator to Photoshop as a shape layer - I have found that Illustrator CS5 renders everything that I paste from flash as a bitmap.I note that there are several options inside Flash to determine how it imports Illustrator files, but I cannot seem to find similar options within Illustrator to change how it deals with objects pasted from flash.

I was curious if there is a way to import Illustrator files seamlessly into flash. My project in Illustrator has a lot of effects like drop shadows
here is what the file looks like: [URL]
so as you can see it is pretty complex. I want to import as much as I can in vector so that it saves on load time since i already built it in vectors. is it possible to import most of it in vector then just rastor the stuff that might not translate like gaussian blur etc?

At work we've been having a particularly irritating issue with svaing flash files in CS5.After making some changes to a flash file, and trying to save it, the flash file simply doesn't commit the changesand keeps the earlier version.We believe we've isolated the issue to importing from illustrator (CS5).It seems if you copy any rasterized images, or vectors with effects on them (such as drop shadows, glows etc)saving starts to have some issues, the saving itself seems to work fine, but reopening the files with often result withflash being reverted to a pervious saved version.I'm not sure what is the exact cause of the issue, but I do think it's certainly linked to illustrator importing.Has anyone else had issues with saving, and it rolling back to previous saves, and is there any way to avoid/fix this issue?

I normally draw all my cartoons in Illustrator (cs5 at the moment), but for a school project I have to animate these cartoons.I believe that I have done this before in Flash CS5 with the bone tool, but this time it doesn't work.I have read numerous of pages that try out the bone tool, but nothing works for me.making the body a movieclip and just import the other filesmaking every part a movieclip (head, arms, legs, tail, etc.)making every part a png or jpeg filegrouping and ungrouping of the vectorIt seems the only option left for me is to draw my cartoon in Flash. Which I'm not too fond of, because Flash ofcourse isn't a drawing programme like Illustrator.

This has been a long time question, why, when you bring illustrator artwork into flash does it add so many unnecessary control points to the object? something as simple as a circle with 4 happy control points in illustrator suddenly becomes a 20 control point circle when brought into flash. It has been this way forever and I know that there is no setting to change this?

I am importing a series of mockups of a website into Flash CS5 as symbols, and it already has elements drawn in Illustrator CS5 that I want to use as buttons. I want to place those symbols into the Timeline and just use simple AS3 to make it go from one mockup screen to the other to make it into a slightly more functional mockup. 1. How can I take the mockups done entirely in Illustrator and make the buttons functional?

I've successfully managed to load an external swf file into a movie, but I don't know how to resize it or position it... is this possible?
I'm using this code to load the swf into a movieclip called 'Holder':
Code:
var Holder:Loader = new Loader();
var urlrHome:URLRequest = new URLRequest("myMovie.swf")
Holder.load(urlrHome);
[Code]....
My 'Holder' is bigger than the swf importing, but ideally i would like to resize and position it in the center of the stage... (at the moment, the movie loads in small and sits at the top left corner of the stage, even though my container is in the middle...

there a more official name for a 'flash container' ? because very little results come up when i try and search for answers!can you load a container within a container, i'm thinking no but would like to clear that up also! for example i've followed this tutorial htm however when loaded up in a container nothing appears in the mouse over effect.. i've also tried loading jpegs into a swf via an xml which again works fine until i load it up within a container and nothing appears..

If a swf file is destined to be loaded into a container file and interacted with from there, is it considered better practice for the code for the interaction to reside in the loaded file or the container file? I am writing on the timeline, rather than creating classes. Also if a movie clip on the stage contains buttons with event listeners attached and I remove the movie clip as a child, do the event listeners disappear with it, or should i remove them separately?

I have a SWF that uses a XML to load other swfs and put them together.
I try to load my main SWF called "preview" in a movie container in a .fla
But when I publish my "index", the movie container only loads PREVIEW without the content.
My AS for preview is:
stop();

i have a xml gallery with a mouse hover scroll bar which loads up photos. I want to have this movie clip load into a container in my menu movie clip but whenever i try nothing shows up. I can load other movie clips fine. I am guessing its something to do with the xml.

I have created a flash gallery where I am trying to fetch all thumbnails and large images from external folders. I am using the following code to load image blow-ups in a container:[code]While this works offline, when I upload the files, the thumbs are fetched from the image folder but not the large images. If there was an issue with the path, then thumbs should also not load.

Late night dumb question time:I have an SWF named "gallery.swf" that loads into an empty clip called "holder_mc" in the parent movie. How do I call a function from gallery.swf that replaces gallery.swf with a file called "purchase.swf" in holder_mc? The function I'm using looks like this:
Code:
function ProceedToCart():Void {
_root.mcLoader.loadClip("purchase.swf",_root.holder_mc);

I am doing a website with external swf using AS2 . The parent frame (container) is resizeable, the external swf is an animation. Some items draw outside external container. The external (swf with animation) will resize when parent frame (container) resized in scale.
The problem occurs when the parent frame resized, the flash programme define the width of external swf, such as the movieclips/jpeg outside the scene. (for example: both my Container and External swf are 1024x640. However, some of the graphics in the External Animation swf move outside this area. BUT the parent CONTAINER still RECOGNIZE and LOAD the content outside the defined stage.)
i found this izzue in FLEX, [URL]
Therefore, I would like to know if I could fix this in Flash CS3 (AS2) ?

I'm writing a preview site that will load SWFs/images from a URL into a preview pane. However, the primary problem I'm running into is actually loading these SWFs. It seems that the object/embed tags require width/height attributes. I will not know the exact size of these SWFs; in fact, I will know absolutely nothing about them.
What I'm asking is, what is the best way to load in these SWFs? Is there a library that exists to do this? Or do I need to do it myself?

I have a simple swf in an invisible <div>; when user mouseover's the <div> becomes visible.The swf has a ExternalInterface.addCallback( "..." , ... ) to create connection to js that needs to be called at load, such that by the time user mouseovers the flash-js connection is working.PROBLEM: on windows safari the flash does not go through its loading sequence until the user finally mouseovers
