Professional :: White Box Flashing Before The Swf File Loads?
Jun 1, 2011
I am embedding my swf file using SWFobject but I get a white box flashing before the swf file loads. I had tried all suggestions but I still have the problem.
The Flash file and the browser background color is the same. Any new ideas on how to fix this. I am a casual AS3 programmer, I just learned to be able to do my own website.
I created a .swf file for a header of a website using a logo that tweens in. I tested the .swf with the transparent properties and it works but the logo I imported from photoshop has a white box around it, how can I remove this? Do I need to import a transparent .png file instead of a .jpg?
I have these movie clips you see..url...click on the text behind the white boxes.
1st I can't get the link texts to sit on top of the white boxes when it loads.
2nd, after loading the second or third box you'l begin seeing my swapDepths issues surface. I've tried pretty much every combination of swapDepths solutions.
Here is what I need. When the page loads and the box is small the link text is on top so you can read what you're clicking. When you click the link the section enlarges and I need the section to be on top. Whatd'ya think? Anyone up to a challenge? As a bonus question I can't figure out why the text goes all crazy looking at random... even the stationary text but not the dynamic text.
I have a little Flash intro SWF i prepared and handed off to a friend who is implementing my intro animation into an HTML site.... The problem is that once the SWF (intro) finishes, there is a short gap (blank white page) before the actual HTML site loads. Is there a way around this? Is this something i need to code on my side (AS3) or is this a problem for my HTML/javascript buddy to figure out......or both.
i have created a plain text files loads from an external file. I am facing one problem which is the text does not load unless someone select the button. I will like the text to show as soon as someone enters the page
//Plain text files loads from an external file var textLoader:URLLoader;function loadStory(evt:MouseEvent):void{ textLoader = new URLLoader();
I'm in the process of switching from AS 2.0 to AS 3.0, so apologies if this is really obvious.. I am modifying/updating an old template for a client and am inserting customized navigation buttons. One is a play/pause button and I was able to swap the old buttons for the new in the library and show them on the stage with no problems. When I export to swf to preview the movie, the new button just flashes repeatedly between the different "play" and "pause" states (up, over, etc).
I checked to make sure I didn't change any names of the buttons or movie clips. I tried inserting stop(); but it doesn't work...probably because I'm not putting it in the right spot. When I select the button, it has "up, over, down, hit" in the Timeline and says the selection can't have any actions applied to it.
I've built a drag and drop project with 9 elements in Flash CS5 using AS 3.0. Using code from an AS3.0 4 element drg&drp tutorial (which worked) I copy/pasted the code into the new project, renamed graphics in AS where necessary and added the additional code required to accomodate the additional graphics.When playing the test I get no errors however the first logo (element) and it's invisable target just flash on and off 11 times, then I see a frame of the whole project (for 1 frame) and then the cycle repeats.
I've double checked all naming conventions and everything is correct between movie clips and code. I've even simplified the code to just 1 element to see if I could track down where the problem starts and I get the same thing. The strange thing (to me anyway) is if I change the name of element to be dragged/dropped (in the code) to a different element on the stage I still get same original graphic flashing. So I don't think it's the code at all I think there is some weirdness in the graphic setup.
Recently, I uploaded the flashmo_212_mp3 player to my site in hopes to have a player. When I put the player into my timeline, for the specific keyframe I run into problems. When I go to publish my site (this is in flash cs4), the site flashes every single page rapidly.What do I need to do to fix this problem?
and I have this swf file with cms that I'd like for this menu to load. Currently the swf file load external text using this code:
Code: if (contenturl1 ne "") { loadVariablesNum(contenturl1 + "/" + userid + "/content.txt", 0);[code].....
but when the xml menu loads this swf file its structure loads but not its data.I tried using :
Code: this._lockroot = true;
in the loading swf main time line but it did not work.I should also mention that the dynamic data that loads onto the swf that is to be loaded by the menu, resides not in it main time line but 4 movie clips deep .I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
What is correct way of creating a police car with flashing blue lights drive along in a scene?My plan was to create a new file, add car and png of just the lights to the library.layer 1 rename as car and dragdrop car graphic to stage, add keyframe at fr48 for 24fps scene, 2secs duration insert a layer call it lights and drag drop to stage, make duration 24frames, lights flash at 1 sec intervals when movie played.Should I select both layers and go modify>convert to symbol>movieclip then copy paste that from library to the library of the scene with the road ?(it doesnt flash !)How is this done ?
I also presume the fps of the movie clip if taken to another file should be the same as that file, one cannot have movie clips of different fps in one file, am I right ?
I made a 'movie' in Premiere and exported as FLV., Its suppose to be a banner on the top of a web page. The site was made with Dreamweaver. When played locally, the banner does great. When I put it on the server, thats a different story. I can tell thats something is there because it loads the background color of the flash file but it doesn't play the FLV.
I'd like to create a flashing LOADING symbol that appears before a swf file is loaded, but there seems to be a problem with my code.The error 1180:call to undefined method fader is given for the highlighted, but this was code i followed from a tutorial.Once the LOADING symbol has hovered on screen for a few seconds, id like it to fade out and display the swf on the index page, of which this code is within.
import fl.transitions.Tween;import fl.transitions.easing.*;import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;import flash.events.TimerEvent;import flash.utils.Timer; var faderTween:Tween;var loadit = new Loader();var timeLimit = 3000;var timeLimitReached = false;
Well first off here is my script so far on the page:

I've an Accordion component in my Flex application and works great, but I found a little glitch in its behaviour.While one of its menus is opening, it shows a white rectangle and, when it completely loads, it shows me the content. But I want to show the whole content without this "white" rectangle when it loads.For example:
Image 1: My Accordion is ready to use
Image 2: I want to open another submenu, so while it's opening, a white rectangle is shown (I was really quickly to take an screenshot)
Image 3: Recently opened submenu is fully loaded.Here is my source code:
I have an animated logo swf file that loads and runs once on the home page every time the page loads. The logo has been updated to appear in three different colour schemes. I want one scheme to load and when the page is refreshed or revisited, one of the other colour schemes to load in its place. They can appear in any random order, just a different one to the one that played before reloading.Can someone point me to an answer or tell me how to do it? I have found a way in JavaScript but this only works on plain images, not swf files.
I loaded a page on the server and is not showing up the flash object. You can hover the screen and you know the object is there but is showing a white box. Locally in my computer I can see it. The test page is [URL]
URL...The problem is with the flash banner at the top. It was created with a utility for creating banners and displays in firefox without any problems. In IE 8 there is white space to the right and I cannot get rid of it anyhow.
I can't figure out how to get rid of extra white space in the browser at the top of a swf file. It looks fine when I preview the file, but when I do publish preview in flash/ try to incorporate in HTML, there's an extra 1/4" at top of window.
When the page for thsi site [URL] loads the background behind the flash document is white. Is there a way to change this so that it matches the page background?
After turning my files to fla and creating swf I happy embedded them into an area in my Dreamweaver page. A grey space area appeared with a Flash icon. A command window open placing two files in a script folder and then I went to the browser (safari in this case) and there was my webpage with a white space where the Flash video should have been.
when we are running movieclips in flash for a few minutes, white regions or white artefacts will start to appear on the screen, and it will slowly grow in size.we have cleared the objects from memory, but these white regions are still coming.
Working in Flash CS4. When I publish my flash movie it opens fine on my computer but when I copy the folder with all the contents to another computer the skin show up fine but I get a white box where the movie should be. The same goes if we try to place it on a website.
When I'm in flash should I be going to File Publish or File Export SWF To be placed in a website.
We uploaded a simple flash site in URL... and when it starts downloading for few seconds it shows white space rather showing the perloader. and the background of the website is blue but it show white during this transtional time.
My question is when I publish my flash movie it opens fine on my computer but when I copy the folder with all the contents to another computer the skin show up fine but I get a white box where the movie should be. The same goes if we try to place it on a website.

There is a white space above the flash file. My file is 360 pix high, but I need the default bar at the bottom. So I set it to be 400. But the extra 40 pix got shared by the bar and an unwanted white space on the top.
If I set it to 360, no space, but no bar either. In either case, there is an extra 2 pix double lines on top. I want to remove the space and double lines.
