I've seen people mention they can include .html, .js, etc files with their iOS for AIR publish when making an iOS application from flash.
What I haven't seen is how these people include extra files (html, css, images, videos, etc) to be packaged into the IPA during publish.
I want to extend DropDownList control to include an option for creating or editing the options. For example; for a list of projects in the dropdown list, there will be another option that says "Create new project..." or "Edit projects..." and this will be the last option in the list. When user selects this option, the selectedIndex or selectedItem will not change and corresponding action will be taken (for example a popup window shows up).This will be a convenient way for the end user. Now I want this to work independent of the context and the class must be reusable. User will only specify the optionText and optionFunction to work this out. The basic structure of the class looks like this:
public class OptiveDropDownList extends DropDownList
{
private var _enableOption:Boolean;

As far as I can understand you need three things to be able to publish Android APK files from CS5:
1. Air 2.5 or greater (I've downloaded and installed 2.7 beta)
2. Android SDK (I've downloaded and installed)
3. Flash CS5 Android Extension (NOT AVAILABLE ANYMORE)
That's right, the last thing you need is no longer available because Adobe is rolling it into the next Flash version. So because I didn't get in on the prerelease with the extension...I'm just out of luck? That can't be right. How do you create APK files from CS5 when you can't get the extension? All of the tutorials out there for creating Android content from CS5 use this simple extension that seems to make everything so easy. What is Adobe's answer for creating APKs out of CS5 if you weren't part of the prerelease? They don't have the extension available anymore so there must be a way.
In Flash CS5.5 when selecting, Publish Settings: html and swf, the html file does not display the swf from the URL after ftp. The swf file, however, does display from the URL without the html file. My work around has been to hand code the html. Is this a known issue or is there something else that might be causing this to occur?

View 1 RepliesI have Mac Pro OSX 10.58 - CS 4 Creative Suite.I have been using Flash to produce projector files totally fine for months. However, today when I publish a Mac projector file I have come across a problem. Flash publishes a .app projector file OK, but, when I open it, it appears in the dock as if it were open but I don't see anything.
Any projector files I produced prior to today still play fine. But any projector files I have created today have the previously mentioned problem. I have tried creating a totally new FLA and publishing from that incase it was the FLA I was publishing from was to blame - same problem.
I have reinstalled Flash, but the error persists.Today I also installed new software. I installed the Developer tools because I wanted to use PackageMaker. I also installed Xray. I have removed Xray incase that was at fault - but the problem still persists.
Recently I found out that event experienced flash developers do not know that it is possible to get "trace" content of flash movies outside of Flash IDE. This was kind of a surprise for me because I was using flash tracer for years already and I know what a pain it is when your flash application works fine in IDE and then fails fo load in browser.Are you still reading trace statements of your flash movies and applications from Flash IDE? Then this tool is for you.http:[url]....
It allows you to read all the "trace" statements of SWF files without adding any extra code! It works in Firefox, IE, Chrome, Safari, Flash IDE, Adobe AIR. Vizzy runs out-of-the-box and configures your environment for you to start debugging your flash applications immediately (automatic mm.cfg file creation, determining location, debug flash player detection, etc.)More features
* Allows you to watch trace outside of Flash IDE
* Allows you to see trace in all browsers like Internet Explorer,Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera and others * Allows you to see trace in AIR applications
* Cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Linux) * Customize font and font size * Automatically creates mm.cfg file * Automatically detects flashlog.txt file location * Comma separated filtering * Allows to set max limit of bytes loaded from the end of flashlog.txt * and much more...
I have an FLA file that is one frame. ActionScript 3 code runs a few functions and when you click on things, other functions run. Pretty basic...I have some buttons and sprites that I would like to use with the external.AS file found here for tool tips: [URL] for my buttons and sprites.If I save the Tool Tip code at the thread above as 'tooltip.as', how do I use that in my FLA? Since I am using an FLA with Actions in Frame 1, I'm not using 'package' keyword... it just starts with import flash.display.Sprite; and goes on to set variables and functions. I'm not using a document class.

Code:
#include "archive.as"
how does it work in AS3?
Am still learning AS3 and am using Flash Professional. I have a number classes that I use in my project:
import fl.controls.Button;

import com.adobe.images.PNGEncoder;
import flash.media.Camera;
import flash.media.Video;
When I run the .fla file with Flash Professional, the file/movie executes beautifully. However, when I publish the file and run .swf in Flash Player rather than through Flash Professional, the file/movie loads but does not do anything once I click on the buttons. It appears as the imported classes as not being included in the published file. What am I missing here?

View 1 RepliesI wanted to create a basic 'Countdown Timer' set for this years Christmas date using Flash CS3. I've seen online video tutorials of how to create one which I followed to the later to see if I could get the basic function working. Well it does work however there is a glitch in the countdown text field display itself when it's running.
Basically it should like the following: 36 : 14 : 30 : 52 (days, hrs, mins, secs).
However, I seem to be getting an extra character (hyphens) before each set of digits making it look like this: -36 : -14 : -30 : -52
On top of that the code is supposed to include an extra "0" digit for when the countdown goes below 10 to maintain the position alignment. This doesn't seem to be working and as a result the timer continually shifts position. I've seen another example of how to create a Countdown Timer and the code is very similar (especially regarding the extra 0 digit). Why it's not displaying properly.
Here is the code for the Timer
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
var today:Date = new Date();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDate:Date = new Date(currentYear, 11, 25);
[Code] .....
error:

I put together an .html page using a photoshop jpg that I sliced into sections. I was asked to replace two graphics from the original .jpg file with animated content of the same size. Using my slices as a guide for size, I created the two animated graphics in flash and saved them out as .swf files. They are both the exact same size(px) as the static images. I opened my newly sliced html file in dreamweaver, deleted the static images and placed the .swf files.
For some reason the .swf files cause gaps in my html page. Tere are no borders on the .swf files and I can't figure what I've done wrong.

We have created a very simple swf file which has TLF text within it. Once uploaded to our client's intranet the file will not play when using IE6 and Flash Player 10. Our client's secure intranet may not be able to download the required framework files from Adobe's website so we simply placed the textLayout_2.0.0.232.swz file in the same directory as the swf files. Unfortunately this still did not work.
To be sure that it was the TLF text causing the problem we packaged the framework in the swf wile (from Publish Settings). This did then work, however we do not want to do this for all of our files as this adds quite a significant size per file. We also changed the text to classic text and this too fixed it so we know we have to solve the TLF Framework problem.
I want to include external code without importing a custom class in as3. My code is getting too long and I need to find a way to segment it into logical groups of functions located in separate action script files.
