Professional :: Missing Keyframes When Opening Fla-file?

Aug 31, 2011

I am working freelance on an animated show for children, animating characters in flash, and I have a problem that is driving me crazy.

I will try to explain it so it won't be too confusing. This just happened on the file I am working on now, an animation of a character walking: The graphic symbol containing the legs had two keyframes in it (on frame 1 and 2) when I saved the file. When I reopened it, the legs had only keyframes on frame 1. When I check the swf I exported just before saving, the legs are fine.

Similar problems has happened many times now, sometimes keyframes are gone, other times they have turned blank, and on one occation graphic symbols had changed to empty movie clip symbols. The last swf exported has always been okay.

Professional :: Flashresource File Missing - Mac Flash Pro Cs5?

Sep 26, 2010

Every time I install it it seems fine and works for a couple of days.  Suddenly one day it won't open and all it says in the message is "flashresource file missing. please reinstall flash "  So I say uh oh and reinstall.  Works great so I think ok problem solved.  Then a couple of days later it does it again.  I have gone through this 5 times, each time reinstalling works for a few days or week then blammo suddenly "flashresourcefile is missing. please reinstall flash"  I am completely stumped.  After effects, premiere pro, soundbooth, all work great.  Flash professiional is the only one doing this.

Professional :: Getting Error On Opening Specific FLA File

Feb 8, 2010

I have Flash CS3 on OSX. Everytime I open a specific FLA file, I immediately get the following error message:
"Error creating Flash Movie. Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check to make sure the name is not too long."
Dismissing the alert box results in the same alert box instantaneously popping back, completely blocking any attempt to act upon the file. The file name is 7 characters long (extension included) and is located in a folder which contains other FLAs I have no problem publishing.

I have sent back the file in question to its creator and she had no problem opening it in CS3. She has done a "Save as..." and sent me the result, but it did not work. A collegue of mine opened it successfully in CS4. I have taken the opportunity to verify the Publish settings there (not that it should matter as I can't do anything with the file, let alone publishing it) and it is set to publish only a SWF file next to its FLA. Saving it as a CS4 file then back to CS3 has not produced a file which I can use with any success. It seems very unlikely that the file is corrupt. So is my Flash CS3 installation corrupt?

Professional :: Flash CS5 File Opening / Closing

Dec 10, 2010

This is a new, legal installation of Flash CS5 running on MacBook Air. Here are the file management problems I'm experiencing:
 
1) files are excrutiatingly slow to open, close, save, and switch between

2) I currently have a series of about 15 files open and I'm trying to close them - I click "don't save" but the files won't close - it's like I've clicked cancel. I have removed the external media these files were originally on, but if not trying to save the file, why can't Flash just close them and make them go away?

I hope someone here can help me figure out why my Flash CS4 on a Mac 10.6.2 machine crashes unexpectedly every time I open a file. (I have posted the entire crash log below) The program will open, and even stay open when I choose a .fla file for about 5-10 seconds and then CRASH every time. For what it's worth, all my other design collection programs work fine.I have tried uninstalling and reinstalled the Flash app., but it didn't do anything. I have also tried deleting all preference files and application support files in my user, and the problem persists.Does anyone have any ideas? I have a Flash job to get out and no way to work on it![code]

Professional :: Windows Projector Quits Fullscreen When Opening Pdf File

I'm not really a coder and have to rely on finding bits online that I can tweak... after many hours I have fixed the pdf opening problem by using the fscommand method, but unfortunately when the pdf file is closed, my presentation (that was running fullscreen) has minimised itself to a window 100% to the original stage size!

Flash :: Professional - Reduce File Size Of Opening Page In A Site

Sep 27, 2011

I'm using the Flash CS4 IDE, and the first page of my site takes a lot longer to load than I want it to.  So I wanted to go through the varied images / symbols / movie clips / sounds and so on to see where all the memory is being chewed up. When I go into my library, however, I can see the Name, LInkage, usecound and Type of my elements, but no mention of file size and I can't seem to find any right click menu that lets me add file size to the list of details being displayed. Is there a way to make it show file size?  Or some workaround? And are there any best practices to reduce file size aside from using symbols for anything that's used more than once and reducing image and sound quality?

Professional :: Pasting Into Successive Keyframes?

Jan 12, 2010

I like to keep my timelines compact, so I often have several graphics in a single layer. Let's imagine that I have a series of five keyframes, with four shapes in each one. Over the course of those five keyframes, one of the four shapes changes into a different shape. Now, let's say that I realize that one of the static shapes needs to be something different. "Oh no! That circle shoudl be a triangle instead!".
 
I know how to use Edit Multiple Frames to drag a box around that shape and delete it across those keyframes, but there are a few problems with that.One is that if the keyframes are really long or I have more like 30 or 40 keyframes in which I want to make this change, I have to drag and scroll and drag and scroll the shaded part of the playhead to cover all the of the keyframes or be willing to do it in chunks. Also, if the thing I want to delete is sitting on top of something else,then I can't drag a box around it without selecting that other thing. I could click the object and delete it, but that only deletes it from the right-most keyframe. I then have to click and delete for every keyframe.
 
All of this is secondary to the fact that Edit Multiple Frames doesn't seem to allow you to paste something into all of those frames. At least, not any way I can tell. I suppose this is a sade-effect of not assigning every asset its own layer, but that would get almost unmanageable with some of the projects I work on.if there's a way to paste things into multiple/successive keyframes on the same layer?

Professional :: Add A Symbol To Existing Keyframes?

Jan 20, 2010

I have completed a bunch of keyframes with 2 symbol on each moving around.  Now I want to add another symbol that will be static.  That is, at the same position in each keyframe.
 
How can I add the new symbol to 250 keyframes that are already set and already have 2 symbols in each?
 
I can see how to do it one by one... but there must be a better way than that.  selecting a herd of keyframes and pasting in the new symbol, ends up only effecting which ever one has the play head.
 
I also realize I should have put this final symbol in at the start but too late now.  So how can I insert a new symbol in 250 keyframes all at once?

Professional :: Movie Does Not Stop On KeyFrames

However, the movie doesn't stop on the keyframes even though I have put a stop script in each of the four. There is no other script involved so far. The stop script appears on the top of the actions panel on the actions layer. Please see JPEG screenshot attached. [URL].

Professional :: Unable To Clear Keyframes?

Nov 28, 2010

A new glitch (amongst the millions I already have) in CS4, is that recently i will be unable to clear keyframes. I usualy do this by selecting the keyframes in the timeline, right clicking and selecting 'clear keyframes' but it's greyed out frequently, I can't work out why this is and I don't know of a cure/ work around for this? I tend to just go in and out of symbols until it works. this is sucbh a pain.

For example, I would like to remove black bars from being shown on the stage in one part of the video, so by stretching it out the black bars wont show, and then I can just revert it back as those frames end. Can I do this with the playback component or embedding?
