Professional :: Control Bar For .swf?
Jun 10, 2011
Somebody answered that a way to get a control bar to a .swf file was to use the "button handlers and the goto and stop methods".No reference as to what is meant by this or to where I can get the .html to do this.I've got the .swf file but no control bar!I understand that .swf can be visible by most browsers.So how do I get the scripting for addin these button handlers and the goto and stop method". Since I'm a newbie, please don't say, this is easy, just use this or that method.I need the scripting that will do it.I know how to put the .swf in the page with <object> and <embed src=""> but no control bar.

I've done a search and found out about LocalConnections but I don't seem to be able to apply them to my issue. I have two separate SWF files that appear on the same web page. Both are simple animations and all I want is when the first has finished playing for the second to start, and them when that has completed restart the first one again (and so on...).
I'm also guessing that in order for this to work I'll need some code in the first SWF to detect that the second has finished loading otherwise nothing will happen when the first SWF reaches the end.

I need to add a control bar (play, pause, progress bar) to a SWF video in Dreamweaver. It can be very simple, the look and feel is not that important, it just needs to be functional. The only way I can figure out to add one is to import a FLV file into Dreamweaver instead. The problem with this is that I can't figure out how to export a FLV file directly from Flash CS3, and using a converter program to create a FLV file nullifys the links in the menu at the end of the video. Any help would be great! This seems like it should be really simple to accomplish, but I have been pulling my hair out over it all day now.

I'm new to flash, so I am sure I am missing something basic, but I have not been able to reference movie clips independently in code. I have set an instance name on each symbol, but when I reference in code it is undefined.
If it matters my project is set up this way:Using Flash 4 Pro. Layer one: Static Background Layers two-five: individual movie clips Layer six: transparent buttons over the movieclips.The buttons work fine, but I wanto to play the movieclips on mouse over.

I've got some moveieClips in container in a scrollpane component.The movieClips are draggable.I'd like to add extra functionality where if an item is dragged and touches the bottom of the scrollpane, it automatically scrolls up, and the reverse if you touch the top with a dragged object.I tried the scrollDrag, but I only want it to scroll once the dragged item touches the bottom or top.So I wrote this and put it in the drag function:[code]....
It needs a bit of work, and I think I can get it working, but the one thing I'm stumped on is how to make the scrollbar move too.Is there a way to communicate with the component using code (I created this component from the component inspector)?

I am building a somewhat sophisticated slide menu. I have input a wait(); command using setInterval in the first frame of my actions panel. My wait() function works perfectly.I have also set a few variables to start out being false. Once a particular button is clicked, it sets the variable to true and sends the playhead to a particular spot within the movie. Actionscript then performs a command to that says if that variable has been set to "true" gotoAndPlay "this", otherwise gotoAndPlay "this-instead".
The problem I am having is that when I click on one of the buttons, it is somehow setting all the variables to true and sending the playhead to places I don't want it to go.Here is the code I have placed in my first frame:
button1 == false; button2 == false; button3 == false; button4 == false;
//Make movie wait for ten second interval before resuming playfunction wait() {stop();var myInterval = setInterval(function () {play();clearInterval(myInterval);}, 10*1000); // stop for 10 seconds}[code]....
For some reason, regardless of which button is actually pressed, (cube2, cube3, or cube4, all of the variables are set to "true" and the playhead goes to whichever frame it wants to at that point.

How would I go about using an external video in which the video would scrub (or move forward or rewind) when the user clicks on an object and drags the object left or right? I want to make a site in which the user has control over the movie, and when they choose left or right, the video will scrub to a certain cue point. wants it hits that cue point, the video will seek to another cue point and the story will continue. I want to make it so when the user clicks on the person, and drags them, it scrubs through the video as if the person is walking in a certain direction. I think I have the cue points set up properly, now to just figure out the rest.

I would like to control the size of a _new window that opens by hyperlink to an SWF file that was created using Flash. Any suggestions to control the window's height and width pixel size? The new window opens and is about the same size as the parent. Also, this link loads the SWF file that contains audio and images very slow. Any suggestion on the mostly likely cause, or how to speed up the loading of this Flash movie?

1. I have a flash movie embedded in an html page. When the user clicks on a button in the movie it should open the new in the SAME or CURRENT window NOT in a new tab (leaving that window open).
Here's the code..getURL("imageTest.html", _self);
2. I can't get my block navigation to show the CURRENT link.I want the current link or page on the navigation bar to be a different color than the other links.
I'm able to get the font to change color but I can't get the background or "block color" to change color.

For some reason I can not get any Flash document to allow buttons to control movie clips. I might have a coding error or something is wrong with my system. I've got an interactive map with the counties of a state as buttons. The buttons control a movie clip that runs info on each county. I have some other variables and things going on and figured that might have something to do with it. So I just created a test file with 1 movie clip and 1 button.
The movie clip has a stop action on frame 1 and frame 5. It is just a box that is different colors per frame.I've tried several methods and I'm not getting a result from anything. This is an AS 2 file.Button has an instance name of btn and the movie clip is mc. There is only 1 frame in the main timeline.First method was adding the script to the button. This didn't work...
on (press) {
mc.GotoAndPlay(5);
}
Second Method, I placed the actions on frame one of the main timeline.
btn.OnPress = function() {
mc.GotoAndPlay(5);
}
That didn't work either. I even made a AS 3 file and used a Mouse Event, this didn't work either. I have older files that have the same code and do work, but no new files I create with work. I haven't been working in flash for about 2 years, so I might be missing something due to the rust in my brain.
Thoughts?

VB6 developers who have gone in to do maintenance on their applications that call flash.ocx are finding that they can no longer save their projects because of some change that was introduced by Adobe in the release following flash10e.ocx.ork around is given of uninstalling flash and installing any version on or before 100452. Because the applications still run fine until the developer tries to make a change and save the VB6 project, the scope of this problem has probably not been fully realized. For this reason, this issue will likely only gain momentum in the future.
I spent the morning contacting several people at Adobe and I discovered the only way apparently to get support for this issue is to open a "web case". From further research, what I understand a "web case" costs around $200 and with that price there is nothing telling me what comes with a "web case" I mean, if I were to buy one, would the problem be fixed or would they research it and say "I am very sorry but we are not going to fix that". If there is a guarantee that the problem will be fixed, then can Adobe establish a pool where the $200 cost can be shared by everyone who has the issue? That couldn't be more than a buck or two each because if you google this problem "System Error &H80004005 using flash.ocx" you will find about 5 pages of people reporting the problem
