Nov 20, 2009I am trying to sett up an workflow for a project. I am going to do the programming and a friend of mine the graphics.I would like him to be able to update the graphic on the final movie without the need of publishing the full project. We are sitting on different locations and usually work at different times. So i was thinking of making separate swf for each of the movieclips. And importing these at runtime.Then he could do his magic and preview this if he uploaded them.I have done some small tests and can't seem to get these imported swf to work properly. Should this work?Any suggestion on how to set up a good workflow for this project? Or at least what to search for.

Jan 6, 2012I'm importing external SWF's into the main file/stage.These SWF's contain an embedded Youtube video.The code Youtube player:
ActionScript Code:
// The player SWF file on youtube.com needs to communicate with your host
// SWF file. Your code must call Security.allowDomain() to allow this
// communication.
[cod]....
when I click a second button to import a next SWF, the current SWF disappaers but I can still hear the video playing. When I start the newly imported SWF, I hear the 'removed' SWF playing + at the same time I see & hear the new imported one?It does work properly when I first stop/pause the current SWF, before importing the next one ... but this process should be automatic.
Professional :: Imported Photoshop File Exported As?
May 27, 2010I've imported a multi-layered Photoshop file (that contains layers with elements smaller than the project size... so each layer is alpha with an element floating somewhere on the canvas.I was pleasantly surprised to see that it not only imported into Flash CS3, but also kept all the alpha and successfully exported as a Flash file with the alpha (of each layer) intact. I didn't think it would be able to do that!Anyway, the one thing that concerns/interests me is whether whatever it's doing is compatible on all systems that it'll reach. At first, I thought it was converting each layer into a PNG file, since (to the best of my knowledge) jpegs dont' support transparency, and the layers were not converted to vectors.
So, what exactly IS it doing to each layer? What is it exporting them as? How compatible is that on other systems (browsers, O/S's, etc) these days? Also, are PNG files now fully supported in all browsers and systems?I'd hate to build my whole site, only to find that it's not compatible on some other system....Bit of back story... I'm creating a multi-layered interface (background, then another level with some random loaded swf file, then the 'moving stuff' (nav buttons, titles, etc), and then an odd shaped frame on top of that. Previously, I did it by making everything with Flash vectors... but this time, I tried making all the elements/layers in Photoshop with just bitmaps (rather than vectors), as I wanted a bit more detail.
Originally, I was considering vectorizing them, so it would be all vectors and no bitmaps.... but with all the gradients and details, they would be an inefficient nest of vectors.... quite a mess.So, then I considered doing most of the screen as a bitmap background image, and putting the 'moving stuff' as vectors on top (...and perhaps use masks so that they appeared to go behind the frame and foreground items... but I was worried that (on perhaps other systems or configurations) the image and the vector matte wouldn't align for some reason.

View 3 RepliesProfessional :: Center An Imported .swf File On Stage (ALL 50 Frames Of It)?
Apr 24, 2011I am a Flash novice who was asked to do a brief training exercise on importing a simple .swf (3D animation) into Flash. However, I cannot figure out how to center the .swf on the Flash stage. Flash always places it in the top left corner of the stage, and while I can center each individual frame of the 50-frame animation by using the align feature in the properties window, I do not know how to center the entire 50-frame clip all at once. Do I have to use ActionScript to do this? And if so, what is the exact code I would need for this, and what exact procedure would I follow?

Jul 30, 2010This 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?

View 23 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Algorithm - Scale Rotated Objects Properly?
Mar 17, 2010This is unfortunately a quite complex issue to explain, so please don't get discouraged by the wall of text - it's there for a reason. i'm working on a transformation manager for flash, written with Actionscript 3. Users can place objects on the screen, for example a rectangle.
This rectangle can then be selected and transformed: move, scale or rotate. Because flash by default rotates around the top left point of the object, and I want it to rotate around the center, I created a wrapper setup for each display object (eg. a rectangle).
[Code]...
Now, to the question: should I use a different kind of setup, system or structure? Should I maybe use matrixes, if so, how would you keep a static width/height after rotation? Or how do I fix my current wrapper system for scaling after rotation?
Professional :: SWF File Doesn't Load Images Correctly And Buttons Do Not Always Work Properly.
Jan 7, 2011I have a big problem - I decided to make a website using flash as I am good with photoshop and thought it would be fairly easy to construct in flash using tutorials. All went well except now the website is published, weird things happen. The homepage works fine but when you click on "portfolio" some of the buttons don't appear and when you try the buttons, some images don't appear. Occasionally some of the buttons take you to the wrong place also. When I test the movie in flash, everything works fine so I can't work it out. I am a complete novice so advice will have to be spelt out in black and white.
View 2 RepliesActionscript 3.0 :: Display Video File In An Imported SWF File Fullscreen In Flash?
May 23, 2011I am using a flipbook Flash/Actionscript 3.0 framework for a digital magazine[url]...
You can have videos embedded in the pages of the flipbook, but they can not be display fullscreen like Youtube videos, for example.
The flipbook can also import swf files to display as pages of the flipbook, so another way of embedding videos into a page of the flipbook would be to have the video player in the swf page you are embedding. This gives you more control over the style and the positioning of the video.
My question is: Is there a way with AS3.0 to togle the embedded video from normal predefined size to fullscreen and back?

Here is the 2frame gif playing correctly:[URL]Now here is a screen shot of my library:[URL] You can see how the highlights bmp is incorrect. When I play the gif in Firefox,IE, Ulead gif animator or anywhere else it is fine but in Flash it shows that first frame with the combined slides and then the 2nd slide correctly. It ruins the "dancing effect" I'm going for.
View 2 RepliesProfessional :: Making Button On Imported PSD
Aug 12, 2010It seemed like a simple process but I cant seem to get this right... I got a button there, but the URL wont go, i.e., the click does nothing. I imported a PSD layered image to Flash CS3, into a new blank layer. I need basically an area of this PSD to be "image mapped" so what I did was create a rectangle with the rect tool, over the area I needed the hot spot. Here I tried to do a transparent box and border (alpha 0) but the outline is still there even though the box is "empty." (I did select the transparent box, no color, and tried alpha, both same result). I made that into a symbol, then I double clicked into there to fill in the key pts for the over, hit, etc., states.... I don't have any effects here btw, as simple as we can get.
After that I right clicked on the button and entered the action script ("reserve" is the name of my button symbol)
reserve.onRelease=function(){getURL("[URL]");}
Which gave no errors on validation. When I preview in Flash, everything looks good except the thin black border and the fact that when the button is pressed, nothing happens.
Professional :: Imported Images Disappeared In CS5?
Apr 21, 2011I had CS5 v11.0.0.xxx. I had the problem. I have just upgraded to CS5 v11.0.2.489. I have the same problem. I imported a series of images in CS5 v11.0.0.xxx to the stage. I saved the file and reopened it.The images were gone in the stage. They were corrupted in library as well.
I imported the same images in Flash 8. I saved the file and reopend it in Flash 8 without a problem. I reopened the file in CS5 v11.0.0 and CSv11.0.2 without a problem. I saved the file to CS4 format and reopened the new CS4 file in CS5 without a problem. I saved the file to CS5 format (both compressed and uncompressed) and reopened the new CS5 files. The problem is still there.
You can download the Flash 8 version of the file here in my dropbox.[URL]...
