View 1 RepliesWhen I test a flash file by hitting "ctrl+Enter" it creates a .swf in same directory as my .fla. does the resulting .swf file actually use the selected publish settings of my .fla file? Or when creating an .swf by "ctrl+enter" does it only use a "default" setting?
View 3 RepliesI am using preloader from the main swf file to load other swf file, if i use a preloader inside my other swf file then it wont show so sorting that problem I am referencing this nice material on preloaders [] I have sorted the preloader problem by calling the preloader from the main swf file and hiding the other swf file till its fully downloaded. but now the problem is I have got no functionality from that swf file, i mean i have got that mouse effect in the other swf file that where ever you move the mouse in the screen the showreel adjusts itself but its static now.
I have got this container mc in my main swf file, and i am using the other swf file by clicking the button, the swf file loads in the container mc after showing the preloader but its kind a static.

View 8 RepliesI've am currently working on my new design for my site. Now all of the new "hot" sites have a bit of animation before the main preloader starts. I want to do the same thing. Have a few elements animate in, and then the main preloader begins....
The preloader script I'm using is very simple:
PHP Code:
LOADED = Math.round(getBytesLoaded());TOTAL = Math.round(getBytesTotal());PERCENT = LOADED/TOTAL;bar._width = PERCENT*100;if (LOADED == TOTAL) {gotoAndPlay(3);}
Because it doesn't lie on the first frame... the preloader doesnt work... The only way I could fathom a way to make this work is to have a swf with the initial animations, and then at the end of the animation... replace that swf with another that begins the preload.. I don't know how to do this, and I really don't think this is the way things are done.
Questions:
Is is possible to have a main swf replaced by another?
-if not-
Can anyone lead me into a direction where I might find some instruction on preloading in the middle of the main timeline?
When my focus is inside the input text field, pressing CTRL+ENTER works but ENTER does not.Pressing Enter when my focus is anywhere BUT the input text field works just fine..My intention is to detect if ENTER key was pressed after the user fills out the field, but it seems to only work for CTRL+ENTER
ActionScript 3:
// works:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, enterHandler);
// ignored:
email.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, enterHandler);

ENTER results in charCode == 0, whereas CTRL+ENTER is charCode == 13 email was created using the Text tool and set to "Editable"

can a movie clip which is loaded from an external source control the main timeline? For example I have a set of buttons contained within a movie clip which is loaded externally onto my main timeline...can those buttons direct the swf to a specific frame on the main timeline? Also...is there any way to load an external movie clip into a specific LAYER rather than Level?

View 3 RepliesI have the follwoing code to control a Flash-based presentation but BACKSPACE and ENTER lkey are not working. I am puzzled. PD: All the rest of the keys works fine.
[Code]...
I have a full flash website which is broken down into:
- Main movie which contains navigation and interface components
- Several content movies which are loaded into the main movie on demand
- An intro movie which is around 3MB in size; its a full CG movie.
At the moment the main movie preloads and then the intro movie preloads afterwards in a sequence; like so:
Main Movie > Intro Movie > Content Loads
There is a skip intro option which will skip the intro movie step and jump right to the content load once the main movie has loaded.
My client wants me to do something which is proving very difficult and I am starting to wonder if its even possible as searches on the net have given results which don't really work properly.
Here is what I need to do:
When the main movie is requested, its preloader appears which it has a load bar and a "skip intro" button. The difference being, this preloader will be loading the main movie AND the preloader; which the load bar representing both movies load progress.
To complicate matters, if the skip intro button is pressed, the preloader needs to drop the intro movie from the equation and just account for the main movie & thus skip the intro; straight to the content.
The way I have tried to do it is to have a preloader code in the intro which sends the total size and bytesloaded back to the main movie which deals with those values, adding it onto its own size. This is proving cumbersome and although appeared to be working, isn't working propery.
I have a UILoader on the main timeline, then I have to load an external mc with a ENTER_FRAME event in it. When I load something else, I found the ENTER_FRAME event is still working. Why doesn't it unload with the mc?
View 2 Repliesin my main timeline i have no movie clips. I have a jpeg called background that basically has all the moviestuff. however when i publish the file on the web i get a delay between the music and the movie. like almost 30 seconds. Im not quite sure how to fix this. I have a swf file that loads my main swf file. SWF file that loads the main swf is only a preloader. here is the code for my music... i think that my problem is that the preloader is accounting for the movie clip but not the music, hence the difference in timing.
Code:
var soundReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Matrix.mp3");
var sound:Sound = new Sound();
var soundControl:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();[ code]..........
I can't seem to remove / unload the external swf files e.g when the carousel.swf (portfolio) is displayed and I press the about button the about content is overlapping the carousel (portfolio) .

View 3 RepliesI have a website that has a SWF embbeded on it with SWFObject. This SWF file has 1,5 MB. I would like to test if website (Lightppd) will be alive if 600 users per hour will try to open it. It will be approx. 900 MB / hour of transfer.
So I have 2 questions in one:
1) Does ab (Apache Bench) test handle SWFObject and gets SWF file while testing too?
2) If 1) is false how to load test my website with SWF file embedded properly?
