View 9 RepliesI'm having a problem with importing a layered PSD file into Flash, an issue which i've read about in a number of forums but haven't yet been able to fix.
The content of the PSD file in question is numerous layers of line drawing which I am importing to the Stage and converting to keyframes in Flash. The layers have no white background and are clear but for the lines of drawing.
The problem I'm having is that the first layer of the PSD file imports perfectly, with its quality intact, but all those which follow it are distorted and jagged, and look pretty awful for some reason.
I have experimented with both lossy (set at 100) and lossless compressions to try and improve the layer quality, lossless is marginally better but not the best.
How should vector artwork be drawn in Freehand so that white details sitting over a blue base are still readable when alpha of e.g. 50% is applied in Flash 8 ? In Freehand 9 I created a logo. Logo has an rgb mix blue base rectangle and rgb white drawn shapes on top. I also drew over the text and gave it the rgb blue as a fill with line none. That sits on top of one of the white shapes.

Does one have to learn actionscripting in order to make a great flash-only site?
View 1 RepliesI found for a XML driven photo stacker......at present you have to click each photo to move through the photo stack but I want modify the code to perform the following:
1. Keep the click photo to progress to the next photo feature (Lets calls this Normal Mode).
2. Allow the user to click anywhere on the screen (NOT) the photo which then puts the photo stack app into (lets call it Slideshow mode) with a 4 second pause between photos.
3. Once in slideshow mode, cycle through all the photos until the end of the photo stack then stop at the first photo allowing the user to repeat the above process.
In effect I want to add a slideshow function along with allowing the freedom to click through the photo stack.

I have been working on this for a few days on the localhost set up, retriving data as varaibles from a php string. There is a output.php file located on the server. [URL]. My Flash code for retriving the code(the swf in embedded into a menu.php file that is in this dir [URL]).
var theloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
theloader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
theloader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, turnOn);
There is no error given by Flash, I just does not load. This is what I have tried (as far as the link is concerned)
theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
theloader.load(new URLRequest("/output.php"));
theloader.load(new URLRequest("output.php"));
Still is not loading the file.
would this be considered a bug in my code (AS3 and Tweener) or a problem with the SWF and its interaction with HTML?When I test the SWF in Flash, there's no breaking it.I can't break it at all works exactly like it's suppose to.When I embed it in Flash, it breaks in an odd way.I have two buttons, left and right. When the buttons are clicked, images on stage move in the direction they're clicked.When embedded, if I click a button really fast, the images start tripping over each other. Strange thing is, it's only to the left button and not the right, but the code is exactly the same for the right & left movement. If I click the buttons slowly everything works as expected.All of this while again everything works great in Flash itself. No errors.So, at the very least I'm trying to find out if this would be considered a but with my code or a problem with the browsers and the Flash player.

I've found great tutorial about creating XML menu. Originally in the background of button was dynamicaly created shape. AS was adding filter to the shape on MOUSE_OVER state. I created movie clip and wanted to use gotoAndPlay() action to go to one of frames in movie clip on MOUSE_OVER state and MOUSE_OUT. Here's the problem. I've tried few solutions but I failed :/ Always was something wrong, often nothing was working.

migrating some of my code snippets over from AS2.I tried reproducing one of my most used bit of code - the dynamic border - in AS3, but I have run into a small problem.
PHP Code:
var sw:int = stage.stageWidth -1;
var sh:int = stage.stageHeight -1;[code].....
So this code works great in Firefox but fails miserably in IE6, Flash Player 9. So my question is does anybody have a workaround that works on IE6, Player 9?
When publishing a project from Camtasia Studio 7, the params list includes a setting for quality. But instead of the usual "high" value, it sets it to "best". I Google'd and searched these forums but had no luck finding any definitive explanation if these two settings are equivalent. Can anybody enlighten? This topic also spurred another question, does the quality default to the highest value if the parameter value is invalid?
View 2 Replieslook @ the source for this page [URL] It works great in all Webkit/Mozilla browers but in IE 9 we can only see the top half of the swf and in IE 8 it doesnt load @ all. I searched all the other threads and nothing seems to work

View 1 RepliesI have numerous swf files which work except one that is rather complex. When I debug the FLA of this problem file in flash CS4, it works fine. When I publish the FLA and open the subsequent SWF in Flash, it works fine. I open the same file in Flash Player or when I open it on a browser, the screen is white and nothing happens. When a right click on the browser frame and it offers me all the possibilities of a fully loaded movie, except that there is just a blank screen
View 1 RepliesI am loading in a logo into the rest of my application via the following code
loadr = new Loader();
loadr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, addLogo);
var logoURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("logo.swf");
loadr.load(logoURL);
It adds the file to a 0,0 x and y positio and I wanted to change that so I tried:
loadr.x=45;
loadr.y=15;
That doesn't seem to do anything though. I also wanted to set the height and width of the swf as it seems to be set to a default and that stretches it out a bit.
I just purchased a flash template and can not seem to find where I place the logo. The template now has a logo in text, but I want to replace it with an image.
View 5 Replieshave a new problem, this time the logo, which should always appear at the bottom left corner, is not loaded in my movie (irrespective of the width & height of the movie)...see the attached file (ori.swf is being called in as2 code in fla)

View 10 RepliesI have a logo stageAligned like this:
logo._x = Stage.width/2;
logo._y = Stage.height/2;
but now I want to move it 30pixels from the TOP of the stage...how can I script this ? I don't see any code for identifying the TOP of the stage...
I'm guessing this would be simple but I just started in flash and have no clue what I'm doing wrong here. I'm trying to add an animated logo effect using a linear gradient to create a glimmer effect, using a motion tween. In order to make it appear the logo glimmered with light every so many seconds.When I add a mask to the glimmer layer but the effect comes out obviously wrong. I read somewhere that in the action script I have to use "cacheAsBitmap" but that does not seem to effect anything.I found an example of the effect I am looking to do in a tutorial pertaining to text effectsI have seen this effect used thousands of times online, but there doesn't appear to be any tutor
View 6 RepliesI wanna import like a logo and a few other images which I want to have a transparent background. I understand save it as a png and click interlaced. But when I import it into the flash as a png the quality of my image is seriously reduced. How to import transparent images into flash as say jpg quality.
View 1 RepliesThe user uploads an image. After uploading is complete the image is displayed the screen. The user can select a particular pixel on the image. Accordingly the image should be removed of that color and made transparent. 1. i tried the getpixel and setpixel32 the image still is very blurr. 2. i also tried threshold its also of the same result - not able to see how to make the output of the image more crisp.

Hi Everyone,
I'm totally going to embarrass myself with my lack of actionscript knowledge... but, I hope someone can at least point me in the right direction.
I'm designing a flash site that has 5 buttons, each corresponding to a different company. When a button is pressed, the logo for that company will appear in the body of the site along with a brief company description. So far, that's all very easy I know. But, here's where it gets complicated (at least, for me):
I've set up shape tweens (25 to be exact) so that every logo can "tween" into any of the other logos. The goal is to have it so that when you click on one of the company's buttons, the logo will shape tween from the current logo displayed to the logo for the company button you clicked. Make sense? I hope so.
When a button is pressed, the script basically needs to find out what logo is currently displayed, so that it can know what shape tween movieclip to play.
I've set up all the tweens on the timeline with Frame Labels: logo1ToLogo2, Logo1ToLogo3 and so forth. And then Logo2ToLogo1, Logo2ToLogo3 and so forth...

View 1 RepliesMy problem is this: I have 16 x different sizes of flash files. (banners) That's 1 set. Now I have to make another 20 different sets with 20 different logo's in them.(320 banners total) So the long and harse way to do this is open all 320 banners and then replacing the logo in them one by one.
My solution was to make 1 set and load a logo dynamically using the AS2 loadMovie function. But if I do that I have to have a logo image file in the same directory. My client doesn't accept this. He only wants flash files.
So, how do I embed a image dynamically on publish. So that if i'm finished with publishing banners I can just throw the image away because it's in the flash file loaded already.
dynamically images loading in AS2 but not dynamically embedding a image in AS2.
I am trying to make a logo appear permanently at the bottom left corner of my flash movie, but it is not displaying at all, can anyone help me with this (see attached file- dewslider_ori is being called by fla's swf[not incl.] ) --Flash CS4 As2.0--
