I want to drag symbol that has a tween. As soon as I drag, tween gets messed up, since flash thinks I want to manually adjust tween. No, I just changed size of stage and want to tween start and end same way but in different position. You could drag by tween line, but this particular tween just changes opacity so no luck. Is there some shift-control-something key sequence to drag symbol with tween intact?
View 1 RepliesI'm, trying to create a duplicate symbol and then be able to drag the symbol around the screen.I have an image - once converted to a button and on the stage as paddock_btn. The other converted to paddock_mc in the library, with a linkage identifier of "paddock".I want to be able to click the button, and create a duplicate, which can be dragged and placed on the screen.Unfortunately, I don't get any output errors here.
Code:
//create a function to duplicate paddock
function dupe_paddock():Void {
i = i + 1;

I am having trouble using symbols at the moment. Whenever, lets say, I have a character, he has many layers and I want to make him and all his layers a symbol. So I select everything using the selection tool and press F8, create the symbol as graphic and click ok. Now what happens is that all the keyframes for each layer are deleted except one randomly picked layer like "Hat" or something. So when for example I now clear visibility of the "Hat" layer and the whole drawing disappears. how can I create a symbol without this type of thing happening.
View 2 RepliesI am a flash user who used old version in the past and purchased new flash CS4 professional come with Adobe design premium recently. Now my problem is when I tween two symbol I cannot see any tweening between. I have created keyframe1 and insert my graphic, then converted to symbol. Then I click on F6 at timeline 50 and create motion at middle. But I only can see the effect at keyframe 1 and key frame 50. I cannot see any slowly tweening effects at all. Do I did something wrong?
View 2 Repliesthis is a super newbie question, but i can't figure it out. I have a flash project(not mine), where i can find several symbol definitions in the Actions Frame. How to add symbol definitions there? I managed to create symbols by dragging (for example) items from library on stage and then pressing F8. I can get a reference on them in the Action Layer(frame 1) under Scene1, but i would like to know how to add these under Symbol Definition(s). Sorry for the question, but i am new to Flash Professional.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a quiz in Adobe Flash CS3 using Drag and Drop Feature. I have created similar Drag items and I want to drag the item and place it into any target. For Ex. I want Drag1, Drag2, Drag3, Drag4, Drag5 should go to any target from Target1, Target2, Target3, Target4, Target5. The objects on Drag1 through Drag5 is similar like I am working on number system. So I want the Drag boxes to go to any place values into the target boxes. But the drag and target instance names should be unique and should be mentioned in the component inspector also.
View 3 RepliesWhen I try to create a tween for the blur, so it will blur into focus, the tween just wont work. I go to frame 130, keyframe, add blur filter, create clasic tween. But when i go to frame 131 it instantly pops into focus instead of going along the tween time span to blur in gradually(I have the next keyframe at 160).
View 3 RepliesI created an illustration in Illustrator, imported it into Flash, and converted it to a movie clip symbol. I added a keyframe at frame 20 and stretched its shape a bit. Then I created a classic tween from keyframe 1 to keyframe 2, and the resulting animation doesn't animate at all; it sits there from frames 1 to 19, and then jumps to the new position at frame 20.
View 3 RepliesI'm dragging a symbol that has been reduced in size, I'm dropping that symbol and I then want the symbol to resize itself, basically return to it's 100% h+w.
The dragging and dropping is no probs and I'm sure the resize would be setting some sort of symbol property value or something
I use a .png sequence for a sprite (primarily because it has the alpha channel) I will use in flash... its a walking animation of several frames. I make an empty symbol, load the frames into it. I put the symbol in the canvas. It animates fine and the alpha channel is working. Now I try to make a motion tween of the symbol instance, so as to simulate the walking movement, from one point to another. I playback [ENTER] its working fine, just as I want it.
Now if I do the [ctrl+ENTER] preview or export, the motion tween is working, the sprite is moving from point a to point b BUT the walk animation is NOT WORKING. Its just showing the first frame in the image sequence! Am I missing out something to make the image sequence animation work like it should? I tried to do the exact same thing to a movie clip (MOV) it works... but with the png image sequence I am really puzzled.
I'm making a very simple animated flight plan with 3 airfields and six airplanes as seen from the top. To imitate the effect of take off and landing I want to be able to change the size of the plane when it flies.Only trouble is I can do that only with the Free Transform Tool. Even if I select Modify -> Transform -> Scale I have to change the shape of each object manually and they end up having different sizes. I tried editing the size in the properties box but the fields are greyed out. Any idea how I can change that.
View 2 RepliesIs there a way that I could make a symbol/button follow my mouse without having to drag it? for example, a car following the cursor.
View 4 RepliesHere is the code I have now for the drag and drop initation
[Code]....
What I want to happen is that after you drop the dragged symbol into the landing area the symbol disappears instead of staying in the landing area.
Basically what I have is a 31 frame, frame-by-frame animation that plays(no stop() command at all currently) in a continuous loop on one "page" of a flash presentation. What I need to be able to do is set it up in actionscript 2.0 so that when a viewer has his mouse over the movie symbol and then clicks and drags to the right, the movie plays forward, click and drag to the left and it plays in reverse, and on release stops on the frame it is currently on.
I need it set up so that if someone is dragging it to the right and reverses direction, the frames are played in reverse from that point (frame) and vice versa and releasing the mouse button stops the movie on that frame: e.g. if the viewer is dragging right up to frame 20 then starts dragging to the left the animation will play backwards from frame 20 to frame 1 so long as the mouse button is held down) I can't use playback buttons, I have to set this up this way for a specific reason for a work project. I'm not even sure if I explained it correctly If I can set this up on the frame the symbol is nested in, fine. If it has to be done within the symbols' animation, fine. Doesn't matter really, the end result is what counts.
I have a tween set up in actionscript... something like this
Code:
function tween(){
var tweenPart1:Tween = new Tween(_root.tweenMe), "_x", Strong.easeOut, 100, 50, 3, true);
}
That isn't the problem... it actually works very well.
But I also have another peice of script.
Code:
_root.tweenMe.onEnterFrame = function (){
this.onRollOver = function(){
this._x = 50
}}
This just counter-acts the tween to make the symbol jump to the centre of the stage and then stop. but that is the problem... the symbol wont stop. it jumps to 50 for about 0.1 sec then continues with the tween.
PS tweenPart1.stop(); doesn't work for some reason
I have a page where you can move around objects when you click and hold. When you release they stop in place. What I want to happen is when you are dragging and the release the object will drift with ease in the direction you were dragging.

I would like to know if there is a way to drag and drop an attachment file from an outlook email that is open into an AIR application and for that file to be then accessible to the AIR application. When I experimented with this the drag operation is giving AIR a File Promise List. But I'm not exactly sure how to make use of it once it is dropped. All the examples out there explain how to manupilate File Promises from an AIR application to the desktop. Nothing that explains a file promise into an AIR app.
View 2 RepliesI have a project in Flash Professional CS5 and ActionScript 3.
I have a movieclip symbol (referred herein as "background" with scripts on various keyframes inside of that symbol. I need to hide or show another symbol (referred herein as "object") sharing a stage with "background".
To put it another way, I need "object" to be hidden when "background" reaches a certain internal keyframe. However, as "object" and "background" are both children of the same stage, how do I do this?

View 2 RepliesI was using CS3 and Flash 8 (macromedia).I am working on a file that was created in maybe flash cs3 or perhaps flash 8, from another developer.It shows tweens on the time line.The developer created fade tweens, with names like "Transform 1" etc.The fades are on symbols (the developer converted jpegs to a symbols)from 100 percent to 0 percent alpha.I can see the fade go from 100 to 0, but I am unable to see the "alpha" properties when I select the symbol or the tween in the timeline.The tween is displayed in the timeline as a line with an arrowhead at the keyframe when the visibility goes to zero.I do not seem to be able to see the properties for the tween, i.e. 100 in keyframe 1, to 0 in keyframe 20.No information shows in the CS4 "Motion Editor".
I created a tween in a layer that I added, and it seems that CS4 no longer show the lines with arrowheads, but uses a different color for the tween range.And I get the motion properties in the "Motion Editor".I am sure it is pilot error here.Since I just installed CS4, etc.How can I view tween properties, like alpha on a symbol created in an earlier version of Flash?
Now I set dragEnabled="true", dropEnabled="true" and dragMoveEnabled="true" to archive the ability to reorder my Items via Drag and Drop. But as soon as I start to Drag an Item the whole Application crashes with:
