Professional :: Updating Images In An FLA?
Jun 14, 2011
This may sound simple but it's not at all from what I can tell. Hell it may be impossible but I might as well ask...Anyways, what I'm trying to ask for is a way to update the images embedded in an FLA somehow without having to manually re-import each individual file every time they get changed on the hard drive. We have a massive project with a large amount of FLA files, and having to manually re-import all of the images every time new things are committed to the repository is going to get rediculous very fast.

Basically I have a photography site that I update regularly with client images and new information, but me and flash doesn't exactly get on! I bought a flash template and have spent about a month fiddling about and slowly learning how flash works, and my knowledge of flash (non-existant) has shot up dramatically, but there are still things that baffle me. Is there any way of having an area on the page which looks at an XML for the information - text in some cases and photographs in another? How to layout the xml.

Firstly i am not sure if this is the correct forum, basically i have updated my flash movie on my website, and the updates have taken effect in mozilla and google chrome, however in IE 7 & 8 the old flash movie still displays. I get this is down to the cache and i have tried several code snippets to correct this but nothing seems to make a difference.Is there anything that i can do with the flash code to force the browsers to reload the the movie each time they visit?

I'll start off by saying that I'm new to Flash. I'm using the CS5 Web Premium suite and want to publish an updated version of a Flash movie that contains PhotoShop files which I've recently modified. Unfortunately, when I open the .FLA file in Flash Professional CS5, it's not apparent to me how to do this. I don't see the PhotoShop files anywhere in the Library pane and thus can't figure out a way to update the Flash movie to recognize my newly modified .PSD files.

I am a learning programmer who is trying to do some simple experiments. However, when I go to change my code, the exported SWF never updates; it simply tests an older version of whatever I am testing. The only way for me to fix this is by restarting Flash, which is not ideal in any way.BTW I am using Flash CS5.5, if that means anything.

I'm just about to uninstall and reinstall at this point but I'm getting my install all screwed up trying to update Flash Pro CS5.5 to use Flash Player 11. I had it fine using the MXP provided in this adobe blog. Though that's 11.0 not 11.1. It did work however.
I downloaded the latest Flash Player / Debugger .exe and the latest SWC for 11.1 and now Stage3D is no longer being seen. Clearly I screwed something up. I uninstalled and reinstalled the MXP after deleting the FP11 XML and FP11 directory but it's not working anymore.
Is there a clear cut simple way to explain how to overlay the latest Flash Player for FPCS5.5? I used the AIR overlay instructions for 2.6 - 3.1 and it worked every time. Now I just need Flash Player overlay instructions. I'm very interested to start trying to Starling framework with Stage3D. I select FP11 to export and it tells me it can't find Stage3D.

I'm currently running Adobe Flash Professional CS5, and would like to update it to utilize some of the features in AIR 2.7 and Flash 10.3 / Flash 10.2. I encountered a similar problem a ways back when AIR 2 was being released, and I had to resort to ultimately "overlay" the existing installations. I've looked around and found some similar third party resources pertaining to the latest updates, but I've failed to get them to work - some instructions for adding in 10.3 as a build target compile, but they don't seem to be running in 10.3, or the debug player is not running in 10.3.Am I missing something really obvious? I'd think that when a major release is made, it should be straightforward to update your version of CSx to target that release, but it's anything but. I found the release notes for Flash 10.3(url...), and under authoring it says:
"Developers can access new APIs in the Flash Player 10.3 by making manual changes to their existing SDK/tooling configuration. To learn more about the new APIs, read the online ActionScript 3 reference documentation. Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5, Flash Builder 4.5, and Flex SDK 4.5 will not be updated for the new runtime."Where can I find the manual changes required? And why do these releases require manual overlaying anyway?

I do have a problem to make jpeg images random in a swf movie.I have found a tutorial which explains people to apple a single lineofcode:imagenes_mc.loadMovie("ima00" + (1+random(5)) + ".jpg");to the first frame of the movie which contains an empty mc "imagenes_mc" which should load a diferent JPEG each time someone gets into the website.Thing is: ON my published swf nothing happens with that code and on the output windown i get "1120: Acess of undefined property mages_mc" and also "1180: Call to a possible undefined method random"

When I export images from any fla,they are very slightly cropped on the right side and bottom. I don't want them to be cropped. Here's how I'm exporting: I paste the image in a blank fla, select Export, Export image, and choose the filename and location.

I have scaled down some JPG's in flash and they look fine but when I publish to a SWF they look pixelated. I've read other threads and done what is suggested i.e. Smoothing on or off, JPG's instead of PNG's and quality at 100% with no success. I know that Flash isn't a resolution based application and bitmaps are but the images look fine in the Flash IDE.

I imported a clean looking high-res jpeg into Flash CS4.Then using properties, I reduced it with the position and size function.I reduced it by half.When I do this, the image is not clean and sharp any more but pixelly.In the image the arrow points to the reduced image on the stage and when previewed.Also, you'll see the size numbers display too.If I need to reduce images and logos like this, is there a better way to do this so the image looks sharp when reduced?I am only interested in knowing how to do this using the "tools" not actionscript.

I have a client who wants a home page similar to the way this one operates: http:[url]... It contains 10 images that are on a steady horizontal scroll that repeats. The images seem to be at about 50% opacity and they increase to 100% upon rollover. The images don't need to link to different pages. The way this one works would be fine, just all leading to another gallery page that gives more info.how I can achieve this type of look thru Flash? I have done some browsing online but most tutorials I've found are more like viewers where the user has arrows to scroll forward and back. This one is different, just sort of operates on its own....like walking by and window shopping for my client's products.

Something that has always bothered me, wrapping text around images. Now in the past I always just used line breaks to wrap the text around images in a static and dynamic text field.
I haven't really had much experience with using HTML formatted text in dynamic text fields but I am told in can wrap text around image, is this true? And if so I am imagining the image would have to be external to the flash file and inserted using an <img srce> tag.
Was looking around for perhaps a simpler way of doing it and came across "Text Layout Framework" from Adobe. After reading into it, seems that it will wrap the text around in dynamic text fields through use of extensions and components (plus a whole stash of other features.) Would this assumption be correct?
And is there any support for text to wrap around images in static text fields

I'm working on a flash piece with buttons that display images when you rollover them. When I publish the fla the thin lines are blurry and look out of alignment even though they are perfectly aligned when I zoom in on the fla.

I am building a Dutch website where people can search for availble houses tot rent. The website is completly free for every one. But to make some money I have added the possiblity for house owners to put there website in the spotlight in Dutch "uitgelicht" (see : http:[url].....). Now I have the following problem. Not every browser shows it in the correct way and I wanted to change the banner in to a flash banner. So I started out in flash to create a "image belt" like this. But now I want to insert some images from a database and I am stuck.
The Question : Where and how do I tell Flash to insert images from a db. I know PHP but I don't know where to start looking.

How can i embed images and videos in swf through actionscript in flash? I am reading an xml through actionscript (3.0) and loading the content But is it possible to embed them and when a compile it , i get swf with content embedded in it (this possibly eliminates the need of giving the content separately with swf )?

There's a lot more going on in this script than simply loading images. First I am dynamically creating the movieclips into which the images are being loaded. I am also dynamically creating masks which are used to make a refelction movie clip (basically an identicle clip that is inverted and place below the clip that is right-side up), and all the clips and masks are added to and positioned within a movie clip on the starge. The problem is that even when verifying that each mask is in the right place and that the inverted clip has the mask as its mask (which are the last operations carried out by the script called by the image loader's Event.COMPLETE handler) I still have missing reflections. Usually the missing reflctions are the first reflections e.g. 1 and 2.

I have an image gallery of 6 images on a frame of my timeline. what I want to happen is instead of all images trying to load up at the same time when at that point in the timeline I want the 1st image to process and load then move on to the 2nd image here is how I am loading those images.
location1.loadMovie ("image1.jpg");
location2.loadMovie ("image2.jpg");
location3.loadMovie (image3.jpg");
and so on.
can I edit this code somehow so that the 2nd through 6th images do not load until image 1st is fully loaded and so on.

i need to do another one, exactly the same, but it will have a rolling picture (4) when 1 button is rolled over.
I can set it up to fade in when the mouse rolls over, but i am just wandering how to set it that i can make 4 images fade in after eachother after a space of about 3 seconds. If you need code i am more then happy to give what i have at the moment. i am assuming i will need a timer in there but i am not very good at AS3.0 so i do not know how to write it

I want to create a flash app where the site owner can simply put images in a folder, and the flash app finds all the images in the folder, and will display a slide show from them.
Is there any way to list all files in a folder, so I can load them without prior knowledge of their names? I'd prefer not to have to tell a dumb customer what an XML file is and how to edit it, and also the images need to keep their original names so I can get titles for the images from the names.
