Professional :: When Importing Multiple Files Into Key Frames?
Mar 16, 2010
I'm creating an interactive flash application that uses hundreds of individual renders from a 3d modelling app. The image file size is 800 x 600. Each sequence that i import to the stage is around 120 images and each gets put into a separate key frame. The problem is, often when I import batches of files into flash the program crashes and stops responding.The problem gets worse after each succesful import ie. after importing the first lot of files, its unlikely that the second lot of files will importInterestingly, I dont have this problem on my pc.

so Flash was importing my PSD files in the folders I had my layers filed into. Well ... now, Flash will only import PSD folders as one big file and so I cannot edit in Flash.

I have a problem while trying to import any sound file into flash CS5.5. I have not successfully done it since purchasing the program. I have tried opening the file in a sound editor and saving it, as well as trying to convert to a different sound type that is still Flash compatible. I'm trying with .mp3 and .wav files mostly. The error messages i receive are "Couldn't import C://*file location* or else i get"One or more files were not imported because there were problems reading them." I havent figured out a pattern as to why either might be showing or the connection to the file.

At work we've been having a particularly irritating issue with svaing flash files in CS5.After making some changes to a flash file, and trying to save it, the flash file simply doesn't commit the changesand keeps the earlier version.We believe we've isolated the issue to importing from illustrator (CS5).It seems if you copy any rasterized images, or vectors with effects on them (such as drop shadows, glows etc)saving starts to have some issues, the saving itself seems to work fine, but reopening the files with often result withflash being reverted to a pervious saved version.I'm not sure what is the exact cause of the issue, but I do think it's certainly linked to illustrator importing.Has anyone else had issues with saving, and it rolling back to previous saves, and is there any way to avoid/fix this issue?

I have 260 images that I need to place on different frame. Instead of dragging them one by one the image on the stage, is there a way to drop all of them in one shot but each images is on a different frame?

I am finding discrepancies between color values when importing Ai files into Flash CS3 (between 2 users)
1. The Ai files are in RGB.
2. There are 2 users, 1 using Leopard and 1 using Tiger.
3. The Tiger users colors change when importing into Flash, the Leopard users preserve the native Ai file's colors.
4. Both Using CS3
5. Both Creative Suite Color settings in Bridge are the same (North American General Purpose 2)
Side note, we are both seeing multiple North American General Purpose 2 options in Creative Suite Color settings in Bridge

So I been trying to import a psd file in flash to animate using diifferent layers from Photoshop. The problem is there's always artifacts around the image once it imports. I can't seem to get rid of themwhen I need clean shapes to animate. When I go back to reclean the image in photoshop, it looks crisp and I don't see obvious artifacts spots as I do in flash.
So how does one get clean image shapes from photoshop or detect artifacts before going through the trouble of importing?

Im using PS CS5 to build the parts of animation i am making in Flash CS5. Im not using PS for the animation as the GIF quality is horrendous, and also rotating layers for animation is a no go!Anyway, im saving the individual layers in (Save for Web) as PNG-24 files with transparency. Then importing them 'To Stage' in Flash. That side is all good.
When ive made the animation in Flash and go to 'Publish Preview' there is a 'background' there. Also there is a border around the files on the stage. This appears to be the size of the 'background' in the animation. Transparency is set in the GIF settings.

I have Flash CS5 at work, and CS3 at home. I am creating a FLA file at home that I'd like to append to an existing file at work. I'm guessing that I'll just need to import all of the symbols from the CS3 file into the CS5 file and then copy and paste the frames - or is there a better way to do it? What I'd really like to do is to somehow convert the CS3 file into a movie clip symbol that I could just run in the CS5 file. Is this possible?

I have managed to load an external text file in one place one the maintimeline. I would like to do the same thing on other frames. When I go to duplicate the same thing that I did on the first one I get a duplicate textReq request. Do I need to give the textReq a more specific name for each section? When I did this the movie wouldn't even recognize and of the code that was working before.I am attaching link so you can see sections I am talking aboutAlso you will notice that the swf file I loaded won't go away. That's another problem...ugh.Here is code on maintimeline:
stop();
import fl.transitions.*;import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.net.URLRequest;import flash.display.Loader;import flash.events.Event;import
[code].....

It looks perfect when the stage is set to 100%.But when I shrink the stage (even in the SWF), the quality of the image becomes choppy and the edges of objects become pixelated.Same thing with enlarging it.The publish setting JPG quality is set to 100%.How do I fix this?It's mostly the quality of shrinking it that I'm worried about; this image/flash will go on a webpage & I plan to have it automatically adjust its size based on the browser's size.

I am trying to eliminate the Loader component from a project. Run locally, the Loader is sufficient to load-up the voiceover swf files that exist on many of the frames in the parent file. On the web, the short download delays at runtime due to the Loader are causing timing issues. I'm not sure if there is a way to preload multiple swfs into specific frames of a parent file so that they are available before runtime.

In CS5, I want to create a series of buttons that when clicked will linked to other frames in the same timeline. So one button will link to frame 5, one will link to frame 10, one will link to 15, etc. All the buttons will appear across the top of the stage on a layer, and I want them to appear on all of the frames so the user can click back-and-forth to the different frames/screens.
1. Is the best way to do this to just add the buttons to frame 1 and add a keyframe to the last frame in the timeline, frame 15, so they are copied to all the frames in between?

Is there a way to move multiple frames in the motion editor (CS4)? Like now I have to move them one by one and it's hard to make them keep their values coz the shift+move doesn't seem to work.

I'm doing some masking with the brush tool. Each keyframe I'm drawing a bit more of the mask. My problem is if I go back to the first keyframe and paint something it doesn't appear on the other keyframes.I thought I found the solution with Edit Multiple Frames, but it doesn't seem to work with the brush tool.

When creating an animation with a classic tween sometimes I'd have to adjust all frames based on changing stage size and what have you. I'd usually park animations in mc's but even then I'd have to on occasion move the whole animation as whole, using the Edit Multiple Frames button on the Timeline. This is also needed when repurposing Flash ads for different sizes. Sometimes I have to adjust a few layers and leave some layers alone, again for Flash ads and alike.
When using a Motion or 3D tween I wanted to know if this was possible, not because I have a particular scenario but I wanted to see if I could do this in the event of needing to do so one day. I tried this feature and I was unable to move the whole animation as I would with a Classic Tween. The only thing I could do to achieve this was to park the Motion/3D tween into it's own mc and then drop that mc on the stage and move the mc as a whole. Is there any way to select all frames of the Motion Tween and move it as a whole without resorting to putting it in a mc (even though I get that it should always exist in a mc)?

How can I copy multiple frames from one file to another and paste in place? For some reason when I do this flash pastes them to the left of where they need to be even though the stages are the same size.

I am importing a picture in flash and i found out that there is a difference between importing to the stage, and importing to the library... [URL] I've placed both picture close of each other and if you look closely, you'll notice that one of them is losing some resolution. Both picture come from the same file, a png. The picture imported to the stage is sharper than the one imported to the library. is there a way to import that picture to the library without losing any resolution?

there seems to be no accepted method of playing multiple flv using buttons. My latest attempt has me putting multiple instances of the flvPlayback component in different frames and using buttons to navigate to those frames. It works but nothing anyone has posted anywhere will result in removing the flv when you go to a different frame and instance. This was simple in AS2. Load movie to a traget and each time you load a new movie the other one goes away. REALLY goes away.

I have several SWF files which are essentially little trivia files, provided to me by a 3rd party. They are individual files that number about 20. I am wondering, how can I play this as a list; like a playlist, and then loop back to restart? I'd like to do this in the stand alone player however it can only seem to load 1 file at a time. How I might look to accomplish this looping playlist?

Im always encountering this same bug since I got Flash CS5 everytime I open multiple files on Flash, my instance names lock in this case I have to restart flash and pray the instance names wont lock up again... It's really getting annoying because I could be working on up to 10 files at a time which forces me to individually open each file everytime I start my project.

I have a drop down menu whereby the clicking of a button causes it to move to a specific keyframe in the timeline. I also have multiple buttons which load external swf files.The problem is when i navigate to the drop down menu the loaded external files keep dissapering because they are not on the keyframe where the drop down menu is actuated. Is there any way of coding it so that which ever swf file is loaded remains there whilst the drop down menu moves to its specific stage in the timeline?

I'm trying to get a .swf (a game, with three total .swf files: main, title, game) onto my site and am having a problem. I understand how to actually do it and make it run (publish as HTML, copy/paste code in Dreamweaver, etc..), but my problem is having multiples .swf files and them not loading. When I embed code for one of the files, the page will play that .swf file and won't load the next .swf file (Main just contains a loader that loads title, Title will load the game .swf when prompted, Game will run). If I just 2x click the .swf files in my folder it will work, as will an .exe, but can I make it so each .swf file will play in HTML?

I am new flash developer, and inherited a project which has 4 fla project files. When it runs inside a browser, it appears "window" which occupies whole browser. This project is write in Flash CS3. I have few questions:
1). When loading main swf file, 3 other swf files are also loaded. These swf files are communicating with each other through message. When debug the mail swf with CS3, I can set breakpoint and the program can stop only at limited AS files. My questions is how to debug other AS files in other swf file?
2) I used CS5. It seems that I can stop at more AS files, which does not belong to main swf file. Why?
My questions is should I use CS5, which might makes debugging easier? Is it right direction to go to debug multiple swf? (For CS5, I need to fix some code in order to make the program fully working as CS3)
3) What's best tool to use for such project since CS3 is very old. Should I use Flash builder, Flex. Amethyst?

I have a 15 frame composition, a new image on every frame. Each image is the same H x W size as the stage. I can click "Edit multiple frames", and I get the selector/slider thing above my timeline which sets which frames are to be included in the editing operation. I widen it to encompass all frames and then select all frames. But, when I attempt to center up all frames on my stage (Modify-->Align to stage) or set the x y to "0", "0", only one frame cooperates- the one on which the timeline marker is on. The other ones don't comply, even though they are all selected.

I have a problem when making flash applications with more than one frame that has symbols placed on it in that I can't declare all of the event listeners for the objects at the same time and I have found that even if I put them all on the first frame, add the event listeners, then click through to the next frame then the buttons won't work on that frame.
Does anyone have any idea how I could solve this? I did consider myself a fairly competent AS3 programmer until I realised I had no idea how to handle this sort of thing. Solved: I initialised the clips from my external class and then addChild'd and removeChild'd them as I needed to and placed their x and y on addChilding.
