I have created a projector/swf for a friend. He wanted it password-protected, which I did, but he wants to be able to change it - without using Flash (which he doesn't have). I thought about writing to an XML file, but that would be way too easy to crack, wouldn't it?Is there any way to write to the .exe file's shell?

I am creating a text class for label purposes with the code below. This works as expected when added to stage within a container. But after reassigning the textfield.text a different text, all the formatting is gone.
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.TextField;

My problem is quite simple but I havent found a way to solve it yet. I want to make my symbol/instances (dont know the difference) transperent. And, when I have a button, I want only the button itself to be clickable not a bit of the white space around.
When I draw something directly in Flash it seems to work fine just as I want it, but I work in paint for the moment and will be using Photoshop too, so then I cant use just Flash's tools.

I am following this tutorial, [URL] and everything works until i actually try to place a graphic symbol into another symbol. I am trying to make a character walk across the stage. Flash tells me I cannot place a symbol within itself. Why not and how can i!!

The first question: How do you make a symbol a looping animation? Say I want to make a short loop which I can repurpose later.. something such as a falling raindrop or a moving mouth. A webseries I enjoyed when I was younger, Bonus Stage, used the same moving mouth animation most of the series.. I'd like to learn how to make that.
The second, and I'd like to take advantage of the tag on the link leading to this forum that reads "there is no such thing as a stupid question in here"... How do you change the size of the brush tool?

I am trying to create a Flash (CS4) website that uses buttons - when clicking on a button, a sound is played. I am trying to get the button to change color after it's hit. The button symbol was made from a dynamic text object. I've tried "b1.textColor = 'FFFFFF'". I get error 1119, "Access of possibly undefined property textColor through a reference with static type flash.display.SimpleButton".

I've searched everywhere online, and can't find the help for this!
I've found some videos, but they did not seem to offer any sort of help for me.
I still cannot for the life of me figure out how to take 3 images, and make them into a simple walking animation and to convert that to one symbol.
Can anyone offer their help to me please so I can get my project going?
I'm using CS4, and all articles I can find are of the older versions of flash.

I have a symbol that I have already used and I would like to use the same symbol in another frame(s), except that when i edit the symbol the original object also edits, for example if i delete a part of it, it also deletes in the object that I have already placed, I have tried the 'duplicate symbol' method but nonetheless my symbol still gets modified and changes the way I want it to show it in certain frames.

Is it possible to automatically make a text list of all symbol instances used on the stage and within all movie clips which are used on the stage? E.g. I have a symbol "my metal bar" in the Flash library and its instance on the stage is called "metal_bar_mc". So the list should contain a line with text: "metal_bar_mc".
Is there any automatic tool or maybe an AS3 library or it is possible to somehow write AS3 code to do this? And one more thing, it would also be very helpful to be able to determine, which of those instances are exported to AS3 (so the text list would contain an asterisk for those which are exported, or whatever)

I've created an articulated drawing with the bone tool and converted it into a symbol. However, when I drag the symbol into my scene and manipulate it, it changes the original symbol instead of using it as a instance that can be animated independently>

I've modified the code snippet "Bring Object to the Front" to bring a given stage symbol to the front on mouse over. My question is, what code do I add to make the symbol go to the back on mouse out? My code is below -- exact same as the code snippet in CS5, but with MOUSE_OVER in place of CLICK.

I've got a Flex 3 site. I need to put the rights symbol, ®, in the radioButton's labels:
<mx:RadioButtonGroup id="myButtonGroup" itemClick="goClickHandler(event);"/>
<mx:RadioButton groupName="myButtonGroup" label="{answerA}" value="{answerA}"/>
<mx:RadioButton groupName="myButtonGroup" label="{answerB}" value="{answerB}"/>
I've got the label and value bound to:
[Bindable]
public var answerA:String;
[Bindable]
public var answerB:String;
I pull answerA and answerB from a database.
I guess that I need to use htmlText somehow.

Is there any way to make a MovieClip (or any other symbol) to keep track of a parent MovieClip?
Let's say I have a movieclip that contains a body, and then I want to add clothes on top of it, so I would write[code]...
And it works, but if change the X coordinate, I expect that clothes_image, change the coordinates as well, without explicitly write the instruction for it.

I am a beginner at using Flash, so this may be a dumb question, just a warning.
When I create a motion tween and enter in a value for where I want the symbol to go, it never goes to where I entered. Example, every time I try to get a symbol to go from (308, 238) to (308, 233), it replaces the 233 with 218 and I can't figure out why.

I created an illustration in Illustrator, imported it into Flash, and converted it to a movie clip symbol. I added a keyframe at frame 20 and stretched its shape a bit. Then I created a classic tween from keyframe 1 to keyframe 2, and the resulting animation doesn't animate at all; it sits there from frames 1 to 19, and then jumps to the new position at frame 20.

that symbols dramatically reduce the document file size. But, what if only one instance of a graphic symbol is to be used? Can I just use pure bitmap graphics from the library and not symbols in that case?

I have a head drawn in Adobe Flash CS5. I've converted it to a symbol. I want to be able to draw a mouth, add a frame, erase the mouth (without erasing the head), and draw a new mouth, and repeat. However, when I convert the head to a symbol the mouths I draw ontop of it do not show up, and appear behind the head. I know converting the mouths into symbols will fix this, but that would take too long, defeating the purpose of what I'm trying to do.Is there any way to draw on a symbol?

I can't seem to add more than one bone to a "Symbol" but I need to. For example I have the "body" symbol and I need to start the bone at the neck and then drag it to the waist/hip area, but when I drag the bone from the neck area to the waist it won't let me attach the boneto the waist hip area of the same symbol. Why is this? I've seen this done in a tutorial but I don't know how to do it.
How can I rig the character in the image so the legs are attached to a wiast or hip area?
1st bone - Start a bone at the head, then drag to the neck.
2nd bone - Drag the bone from the neck to the waist.
3rd bone - From the waist to the hip.
4th bone - From the hips to the legs.

I want to make a new instance of an existing symbol (movie clip or graphic) when an object hits the side of the stage. I have the code to figure out if it hit the side of the stage, i just need to know how to make a new instance and make it show up where the ball hit. I also want to be able to have multiple of these instances on screen.
