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.
View 1 Repliesis it better to import images to the timeline at runtime, or export them from the library for use in action script?
I have a few images which make up the background to my website (ie they are unlikely to change very often - if at all), which I am currently exporting from the library for use with my action script code, and the rest of my images I am dynamically loading in based on a set of paths held in a csv file (these may change often).
As I have already built the class to dynamically load in external images, I was wondering if I should also load in those images which make up the background.
I have a flash files with symbols I need to export as PNG images, for some reason the exported images have different width and height than indicated in the flash file. After checking I found out that the new dimensions don't even keep the original ratio between height and width. This happens for several symbols at different sizes. What might be the reason for this?
I have also considered finding a way to take a snapshot from within flash of a slice in the flash movie, is that possible?
Understand that I cannot manually take the snapshots as I need this done on a very large quantity of symbols.
Is it possible to export an array of images to some sort of movie animation? The array has bitmaps that I would like to be exported to some sort of video fileIt could be gif, avi, swf, mov, or anything really
View 1 RepliesI have this FLA with animation and when played, the animation has alpha channel. I cant understand why when I look in the library I see the frames without the alpha channel and also when I try to export/extract the image again the image dont have alpha channel. How is it that in flash this image has alpha channel and how to get it out like that into PNG? Here is the link to download the FLA:[URL]..
View 1 Repliesi have a flash .fla that was compiling as a .swc with references to images, but now I need to load all these images externally and I dont have the original assets.
I know I can export them one by one, but I have a few hundred in the file, and want to find an easier way.
You can manually save some particular movie clip on a stage as an image by running "Export > Export Image". Is it possible to write an actionscript that would export all movie clips on a stage to images automatically? Or at least is there a way to automate this in any way?
View 3 RepliesI will not be hosting the .swf file and I would like to include images using Flash Builder 4. The images appear in a folder in the exported version and I'm not sure how to "embed" them into the .swf (so that I can deploy the file to sites like Kongregate, etc.)
Seems like it should be simple, but my Google fu is currently poor.
Edit: Note, I would like to continue using the Flex framework, which is what I am using now.
I am trying to export a flash animation as a mov, so i can convert it for html5. When I export the movie, the animation has artifacts in it, strange things do not erase correctly, they do not show when i view it in Flash, or when I view the exported flv file.
So as you can see, there is a 1/2 drawn image. They round things are floating down, but for some reason, as they float down to stack, they leave behind some partial images.
I have a flash file (banner ad) that uses some jpgs that I imported onto the stage. When I publish the file... It won't include the images. If the images are in the same folder as the swf.. it will work. However, just the SWF on its own will not display the images. Any ideas?

View 1 RepliesI don't see any export settings to export in *.flv or *.f4v format. Do I have to convert *.swf to those formats?
View 1 RepliesI made a banner for my company that I'd like to turn into a .gif file for our marketing strategies portion of our site. I am new to flash and can't seem to find the right export/publish settings to get the cleanest possible .gif file.
Would anyone mind looking at my attached .fla file to see where I might be going wrong. All of the images I imported into flash were edited in photoshop CS4 and saved as .png files. Is this the preferred method? When I export my animation it slows down and becomes all grainy. I am trying to create a .gif similar to the one I have also attached that was created in flash by a professional design firm. What would this guy (the guy that created the attached .gif file) have done differently?
[Code]...
When I go to export a flash file (command > enter) the swf either decides to play every 5th frame which I made 5 keyframes each at 20% more alpha each playing only the one at 100% alpha. It also brings in the line spacing so it is all mucked up. Everything is fine when I press enter to do timeline preview but not when I export swf does anyone have any idea why?
View 2 RepliesI've been having similar issues as many others regarding saving xfl and fla files out of flash cs5. I have managed to get through them with various methods of recreating files, make new flas, and coping the library over, and the like.. (All of which is crap by the way, saving issues should NEVER be an issue)The answer from support seems to be "You have a corrupt asset". If this is the case then flash corrupted it. </RANT>The issue I'm having now however, is that I can no longer get it to export a new swc. I'm using the swc with a Pure AS3 project.I can save the xfl file just fine.I can compile it and it doesn't complain (though there isn't much to compile other than images and movieclips containing those images)I can re-open the file just fine.
I am not saving across a network, but directly to a local disk.As far as I know, I don't have odd characters in the clip names, but if there are its by mistake, and there is virtually no way of discovering which one it is.I am on the latest version of Flash Pro CS5 (11.0.2.489)So, to Support:e at adobe please look at this file and tell me what is not allowing it to build the swc? Or better yet, tell me how to find out?I'm sure its breaking in the middle and giving up but not ever throwing an error.Is there a way to find out what asset is breaking it?
I have a large FLA file and is fails to export. 108 meg.I have attempted an export on Win and Mac.No errors. It just stops and removes the 2 kb swf file it opens at start of export.I set jvm,ini to 512 and then to1024.I embedded the fonts.
View 7 RepliesI'm trying to export a .mov from a .fla file. Strange thing is happening. When I export the .mov, there are small sections of the vector animation that are missing or not showing up like missing puzzle pieces. I can't find anything about this. I've tried many different settings and they yield similar results.
View 5 RepliesPardon my most likely newbie mistakes.I imported a FLV file I created in After Effects into Flash CS4, using the wizard. I choose the correct file path and no skin.Then using the FLV playback components I made a custom play/pause button.When I test the movie it works beautifully.Not when I export (I have tried quicktime movie and SWF). I think I only get one frame (the first frame is empty, so not 100% sure).I have never worked with Flash, is there something I need to do in the timeline, like setting an in and out point or something?
View 8 RepliesI'm trying to make a new site (Green DNA) and wanted to use a combination of flash and html At the top, I wanted to have the navigation bar as flash, and below the html content (like for example a blog).I wanted to create some cool animations using After Effects, and import them into flash. I was planing to use around 250-300 frames of animation total (800x270 pixels) and keep it the whole .SWF file below 2MB
My first attempt was to export the video from AE as a .SWF but the result was a 10 MB file Then, I tried to export as a PNG or jpg animation sequence... I was able to reduced each frame to about 27.0kb but the result was around 6mb file Then, I tried saving the animation as a .mp4 file (around 2mb) but I couldn't figure out how to imported on flash (I was using adobe bridge, but It kept changing my 800x270 pixel video into something that I didn't approved ( I tried multiple settings)
I have a Flash movie that uses Actionscript 2.0 to trigger animations. The swf and flv files are separate though - the flv is called by the swf. There are cues in the flv that fire Actionscript events. How can I get the whole thing to export? I can convert the flv to an avi but I need the animations.
View 1 RepliesI created a short animation using a series of photos stop-motion style, only about 18 frames long (as part of a larger project) Whenever i try to export it into SWF (Either CTRL+ENTER or the FILE>EXPORT method) the time it takes is super-fast, but no file is created. When the export was done with a previous successful export, it simply dissapeared
View 4 RepliesI bought flash to create animations. So far they play fine as a swf, but when I export as a .mov file it leaves traces of tweened symbols and looks really ugly!See my test example below, error is about 4 secs in on car and sun. Please tell me what am I doing wrong? I know it works for other people!
View 2 RepliesI am using cs5 flash to try to export a .fla file for a client to quicktime format. The end result being a DVD playable in dvd players. I have production premium and fcs, but the only option I have found is to open the file in flash professional cs5 and there is an export to qt option.
I export it, and it comes up with "Recording Flash Content" and displays a status bar. The status bar fills completely up and does not finish. Is there an issue I am not aware of?
I will state that there were missing fonts, but I just assume they were replaced and could it be an issue with that?
Edit: It is a 3 min clip so i just set it to end at 4 mins, and the status bar completed, but now the Compressing status bar does not even start to move or fill, and the application stops responding.
I'm working on a 3 minute animation that is 53.7 MB right now. I periodically export the file to swf to see how it looks as I'm working on it.
It got the point where it was taking around 30 seconds to export which I'm used to when my animations get longer. However, now it constantly gets stuck at 90% and I get the rainbow wheel cursor. I waited 30 minutes thinking it needed to catch up with itself and nothing changed. I always end up having to force quit out of Flash because it's not responding.
I've tried numerous things to try and get it to export such as quitting and restarting Flash, doing a complete shutdown and starting Flash, and copy pasting all my frames into a new Flash file and saving. No matter what it always stops at 90% and no longer responds.
When Trying to export a flash graphic out of Flash CS3 to.PNG format, Flash will either export a severely distorted image or it will just crash and shutdown. Admittedly, the graphic is pushing the max limits of allowable export (7900x7900px @ 300dpi). I've never had problems exporting to .PNG before, as I use that feature every day, but rarely at this scale. Could the size be affecting it's ability to export correctly? If not, what could be the issue?
View 4 RepliesI'm working with Flash CS4. When I test a scene, all work just fine, but when I try to test movie, or export the swf file the process stops suddenly and nothing happens.

I am building an interactive website as my final project for my Webmastering class and need to know one thing. First I'll give you my setup. I have four Movie Clips in four seperate layers on my main timeline. I want to export one of those Movie Clips as an avi file. When I use export>movie, it exports the main timeline. I figured it would do that. So then I opened up the Movie Clip that I want to export and tried the same thing again. No luck. how to remedy this situation. I have five days to do this and have spent about four days of my life working on this if you add up all the hours that I have spent working on this.

View 3 RepliesI'm working on a game at the moment, and I'm running into a problem. I was testing the vector files that I export of the art I made, and upon re-importation to flash the colours have changed significantly. Then, when the game is running in a browser, it looks different again. It even looks different between different browsers.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to export a Flash movie to Quicktime. The movie is not very large - the SWF file is about 1700 KB. When the export program runs it shows a progress bar recording Flash content. The green bar goes to the end and then gets hung up and never finishes (at least after a half hour wait). I have installed the latest Quicktime codec with Quicktime 7 player.
