Professional :: Cs4 Parameters Can't Find Path For Xml File
Feb 3, 2010
I am trying to build a .xml image scroller using the scroll pane component in CS4.I choose Actionscript3. Drag the component to the stage. Give it an instance name.Then I look for the Parameters that used to be in the properties panel in CS3. Not there anymore.I find that the Components Inspector has Parameters in there now.OK.I need to use ContentPath to tell the component where the .xml file is so it can find the images for the scroller.Can't find 'ContentPath'.How can I point the component to a .xml file?Is there a way of getting Parameters back in with properties - it was so much easier.
Is it possible to globally find/replace FLVPlayback parameters (e.g. contentPath, skinAutoHide, etc.) so that parameters can be changed globally throughout movie? I'm using Flash CS3 with ActionScript 2. Or, is there a way to override the FLV parameters at runtime using AS2?
I have a swf that plays in the browser and I would like to give the user an option to open the swf into a stand alone player. The best way I see to do this is to export the swf as a projector file but I can't figure out how to pass any params (flashvars) to the exe file.
I was given a file and told to make the xml path an external variable. This is the code I have:
var panelNumber:Number;var xmlLoaderPath:URLLoader = new URLLoader();xmlLoaderPath.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loadXML);xmlLoaderPath.load(new URLRequest("FlashFiles/CP_UnsecuredHomePgDataXMLPath.xml"));function loadXML(e:Event):void{ var myPath:XML; XML.ignoreWhitespace = true; myPath = new XML(e.target.data); var path:String = myPath.path;
Yesterday I was working in an exhaustive animation when the computer turned off. When I turned the PC on again there was a message about a recovery file. I opened the recovery file: it was the animation I was working with. I finished my work and closed the recovery file. Today I was looking for the file I was working with and I can't find it: Flash gives me just the original file not the recovery file.
I have a video which has an flvplayback inside. I have been using it for others flv. But with these 3 flv, when I set the path in the component parameters, flash shuts down. I have used aftereffects, media encoder to convert them from mov and avi to flv.
I have purchased an image gallery program that works fine but I am struggling to make a very minor modification. I have asked the author for assistance but previous requests have met with no response so I am also asking my question here. This program has most of its logic in an external AS2 file. I have made some small changes to this file and want to save it under a new name. However, that would also require me to change the reference to the external AS2 file from within the fla file. That's where my problem lies. I can't find any code in the fla that contains such a reference.
If I try to publish an swf without this file in the required location it causes a compiler error thus proving that there must be a reference somewhere to that file. However, doing a search for this AS2 file in the 'current document' when viewing the fla file in Flash CS4 produces no results. Where else could this reference be hidden?
Where can I find the path to the Flex SDK? Last time I embeded metadata, Flash CS5 automatically found it for me. This time its not working. I get this message in the output window:You have used a feature that requires the Flex SDK:"Embed" metadata Please set the Flex SDK path if necessary and add it to the library path for this file. The Flex SDK folder contains the bin, frameworks, lib and other folders.
I have an embedded flash object with a movie parameter that uses a url as a parameter. When this URL is resolved on the client the full friendly url is used and the link to the .swf is then incorrect.Here is the HTML:
I see that the background music in my Flash site is located in a symbol called muz When I click the properties of this symbol, the sound file's location is listed as.flashsoundmuz.wav I couldn't find that sound sub-folder in the flash folder nor could I find the file. I tried doing a search to look for the muz.wav file in my computer but it could not be found. Does anyone know how I can find and save this file?
get the target path of an object.So that i can give properties/methods to that object.Actually i need the target path when an event occurs.like on click/keyup/enterframe..and so on.
var curinstance:Object = ev.target.valueOf();
In the above code i get the instance name of the particular object i cant give properties and methods to it.
I am currently looking at a way of visualising data and a part of the algorithm needs something 99% the same as A* Path Finding but I cannot wrap my head round it fully. I know it will be a fairly simple modification. (specific cost instead of least cost)
Basically I need to plot a path (2D Grid, no Diagonals) from point A to point B in X number of steps.
E.g. If the start and end points were right next to each other and I needed the path to be 3 steps it would have a tiny loop. (moves: up, right, down). Is there a known name for this algorithm or is the use of this so rare it's uncommon? I am currently looking at this AS3 Librbay for modification as it is apparently very fast and seems clean and simple to me:[URL]..
How can I find the path to the user's temp folder (e.g. C:UserslisnilAppDataLocalTemp) from Flash/AS3? It needs to work on any version of Windows, at least XP, Vista and 7.
I am trying to get the flash buttons for my website to work, but every time I do the getURL thing it keeps saying 'Cannot find(directory)'. The website is offline and I'm using Macromedia Flash MX 2004, I also might be able to use Flash 8 but these are the only two versions I have access to.The action script for the button is:
I just installed flashdevelop and downloaded a sample project source at the bottom of this link. I open it up in flashdevelop and when I go to run it, I get an error saying I have to set the field: path to Flash IDE. I'm confused, why is the IDE asking me for the path to the IDE?
I want to know the 'file path' when an user selects a file from 'any location' on his hard disk. I like to know is it possible to fetch the entire file URL instead of the file name alone?
Code: var fileRef= new FileReference(); fileRef.addListener(mylistener); mylistener.onOpen = function(file){ [Code]....
I am working with Flex, Flash, Action Script and I want to browse the local machine file system using Operating System's file browse window and select a file then i want to get the full path of the selected file. How can I do this?
I'm building an air app which reads rss feeds from 3 different websites.I have a .fla file with the window controls code and an .as file with the code. In the .fla I have 3 buttons, one for each rss feed, the problem now is where I should put the code to handle with this buttons, in the .fla or in the .as.My idea is to have something like this in the .fla:
ActionScript Code: b_engadget.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, engadget); function engadget(evt:MouseEvent):void{
I have managed to get it to open a file browser but all I can seem to get it to do is give me the NAME of the selected file *eg. selectedFile.name* I also need the path of the file as in C:examplefile.mp3.
The program I'm making plays an MP3 of your choice at a certain time, like an alarm clock. But I got tired of entering the file path of the MP3 EACH time so I wanted to have a browse feature.
I'm in flash cs3 project. I need to create a pdf file from an image path included into an xml file or if easy also in a written path as the code below:[code]
OK, I've spent a few very frustrating hours trying to figure out a solution that's probably staring me in the face. I have one movie (Intro.swf) that loads a second movie (ncjhs_Menus.swf) with drop down menus. Intro has a movie clip with the following script in it:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(myLoader); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ncjhs_Menus.swf"); myLoader.load(url);
Both the Intro .swf and the ncjhs_menus.swf files are saved in a subdirectory called Flash off the root. The html file generated by flash is saved in the root. When done that way the Intro file runs but does not manage to get the menus file to load. If however I save the html file into the same Flash diretcory as the two .swf files then everything works fine and Intro can call the menu .swf file.
So I've created a script where a mc is clicked on and the player can draw a path using the mouse. I'm trying to figure out how I can get the mc to follow the path drawn out by the player's mouse and when the player clicks again, it erases all of the path.my code is below
