CS5 allows you to save FLA project as a bunch of XML files that encode vector graphics in some format, like:
<Edge cubics="!8809 4331(;8821,4327 8849,4316 8865,4311q8809 4331 8865 4311);" />
Is there a format specification somewhere explaining what those entries mean?
You can easily export Flash keyboard shortcuts in a HTML format but how on Earth do you import them? There simply is no visible way to do it in the keyboard shortcut panel? How do I go about doing this? (I'm using CS5.5)

I am trying to import an xml file and format it with the headers bold and links. I have tried formatting with html and a stylesheet. Here's a few code snippets and what happens with each.
This one has 'Render text as HTML' selected and traces everything correctly, but nothing comes up in the textbox...
Code:
var css:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
css.parseCSS("a{font-family:Arial;}");
cnnText.styleSheet = css;

View 29 RepliesI'm new to ActionScript, but not to programming. I'd like to browse the language specification for ActionScript 3. It is accessible online at ActionScript 3.0 Language Specification. Is there a compiled PDF version of it somewhere? Or is there perhaps some PDF export button I'm missing? I prefer browsing big docs like that in book form--and to have it accessible offline and outside a browser.

View 1 RepliesSince Flash 5.5 by default saves files in 5.5 format that's incompatible in 5.0 editors we need a way to save .fla files in older format with a JSFL script. Can this be done? How?
Background: One of our developers installed the Flash IDE 5.5 and ran a modifying script on hundreds of fla files that we have. The changes were ok, but the file save format was not. It automatically saved the 5.0 files in 5.5 format that can not be opened on the 5.0 IDEs.
We could restore files from backups or he could go trough each file manually saving them with the save as dialog. I'd prefer to find a way to batch save .fla files in older formats like Flash IDE 5.0. JSFL would look close to optimal, but I could not find a way to save the files with specific flash version in mind with it.

View 2 RepliesI'm looking into implementing 3d in flash. I know you can import files from 3dsmax as a swf file or ai file but is there a way to bring 3ds max files into flash the same way you can bring them into director. Director allows you to bring 3ds max objects and animations (with total control...rotation and camera movement for example) by exporting as a w3d extention. Is there a way to have total control over 3d elements and animations in flash. Being able to create a real 3d enivorment is the goal, for things such as walk throughs.

When I try to import them to Flash and add them to the libary, and then onto my animation, they don't move, just stay still like normal images. Why is this? I've seen people import things such as boats moving across the sea in .gif files and they work in flash, why aren't mine?

I inherited a site to maintain [url]... and I've just got the original 'fla files (I only had .swf previously). However, while I can get the file to play in it's entirety, I only get to see 35 frames, so I get the impression I'm not able to import the lot.
View 1 RepliesI'm in the middle of coding a Flash CS5 file with AS 3.0, and a part of that code has me importing an external .as file I wrote. When published, the SWF works fine - but only when it's in the same directory as the external .as file I imported to begin with. Ideally, I'd like the published SWF to work independently without needing to be packaged with the .as file

This happens both when I import to the stage and import to the library. Please if you know anything about this issue please help otherwise the whole flash program is useless for me.

my Flash project is beginning to get out of hand because there are too many .as files and I would like to organize them in folders. But I don't know how I need to import them properly.
I put them in a folder called "levels", in there is a Level.as and five specific files that extend the Level class, Ground0.as to Ground5.as.
I put the folder name levels as the package name, so for example the Level.as file begins as following
Code:
package levels{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

View 10 Replies- I can import a single AVI video file and convert it to an FLV video.
Problem: I have two AVI video files... one 4GB (20 minute) long and one 2GB (10 minute) long... and want to combine them to have a single 30 minute long FLV video file.
Question:
- Can I do this in Flash? When I "convert" a single AVI video to a FLV using the File, Import method... I can't really see the video on the Flash time line.
- I tried doing a File, Import for file-1.avi and then doing it for file-2.avi... but the two were on top of each other... and not end to end.
I CANNOT see my image files when I import them. This is the case regardless of whether I import them directly from my image files, or from my Flash library. They WILL NOT show up in the stage area, although the panel on the right shows the file! What can I do to correct this? I am using Flash CS4 which I need for my Digital Design classes through the Art Institute of Pittsburgh! I will FAIL this course if I can't get this program to work properly!!
