So I decide to make my website in Dreamweaver with some quicktime files; they would have to be converted to F4v. So I downloaded the Adobe Media Converter and that did it's job.
Next step to place the F4v file into Dreamweaver, right. Nope. I then learned, that I need to publish the video via Adobe Flash Pro CS5 so that I can get SWF files, but my F4v won't open in that program.
I have a map of the US and each state has a rollover that changes the color of the state...what i am trying to figure out is how to click on the state and have text appear to the side of the US map and have that text stay up until the user clicks on another state.

View 1 RepliesI've been trying to make a playlist of some of the short movies i've done across the years but I am currently stuck.Is there any way to have a .swf file, load other .swf using variables defined on a separate txt or xml file? if so, is there a way that flash can do it all automatically? that way if i have to update it i only have to update the variables in the .txt/.xml file instead of updating the entire .swf file.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make an educational app prototype (I'm new to Flash, this is for a Masters in education) to help students learn IPA symbols (phonetics). I have successfully made a section where the students click on symbols to hear the corresponding audio and listen to explanations.
For the final part of the prototype, I have to create some kind of instructional game. My idea is to have 12 circles, each one playing an audio file of a vowel sound (this I know how to do). The students will have to click the circles to listen and then drag and drop them to the correct IPA symbol. Flash would then give feedback on correct/incorrect answers and a score. Maybe all of this is against the clock, needing a timer.
So, I need to learn drag and drop. What else to I need to learn so that one drop position is considered "correct", the others are considered "incorrect" and a score is given at the end? And maybe a timer?)
I really wish Flash and Photoshop would make possible a grid system like 3D apps so the center of any page would be: X:0 and Y: 0, then when placing graphics you could just type in X:0 and Y:0 and the graphic would be placed in the center of the stage.

View 3 RepliesI'm sure this is something easy that I'm missing, but I can't figure it out. How do I make a button invisible? I need it to be invisible through frame 43 of my movie. I have tried changing the alpha to 0, but it's not letting me change that, except in the edit button mode which changes it for the entire duration and not just through frame 43.

View 3 RepliesI have a bunch of flv files and at the momment when a user clicks on the link to each of the files on my site, they are prompted to download each FLV file or asked how to open the video.
