Embed A Sound In A Symbol?
Aug 27, 2009
Is it okay to embed a sound in a symbol? I ask because I have an animated symbol, and have included a sound effect in the symbol's timeline, however when using that symbol from the main scene,the sound effect doesn't play. However if I put that sound effect on the main timeline, then it plays.Personally, for timing purposes I'd much rather use the sound effect within the symbol's timeline, but doesn't play for me.
Am I doing something incorrectly, or can't sound symbols be used from within a symbol?

I am trying to embed the goto next frame and stop code snippet into a symbol. Its basically a box that a user can click that will allow them to go to the next frame. The instanced symbol will be resized from frame to frame etc. I ve been told that if I embed the code within a movieclip within the symbol it should work, however I am severely frustrated as nothing is happening.
Create a symbol (I ve tried Graphic and MovieClip), name it A. Within that symbol I put in an instance of a Movie clip named B, which is just a square.Back to the top symbol A, in the timeline I add the code snippet go to next frame and stop.I have 5 frames in the main timeline which all have stop actions if that makes any difference?

Here's the scenario: We have a creative team that operates in Flash CS5.5 and produces SWF assets which have both graphics elements and actionscript code in them, and an engineering team which authors .as files and builds "code SWFs". The code SWF files must load or embed the creative assets and interact with the code therein for our apps to function.
For iOS mobile development, there is another consideration - it is not possible to load runtime code in an AIR app packages for iOS because of Apple TOS (see related question). Hence, it is not possible to use a Loader to load SWFs in an iOS environment and retain their code.
Embedding a SWF into an ActionScript file the standard way results in a Loader that loads the embedded SWF directly as bytes. This results in access to the top-level, main timeline as follows:

Two related questions:
- Is there a way to click on something in my project---a symbol or a sound clip I have already placed from the library---and find out which particular library element it is?
- Can I play sound from the library window, to preview it before placing?

I've gotten stuck on a sound issue where I want the sound to play when the mouse passes over a symbol, which I've managed to get working, but unfortunately it is also playing when the page first opens, which I certainly do not want.
The script is:
cow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,gomoo); function gomoo(evt:MouseEvent) { var entermoo:Sound = new Cowmoo(); entermoo.play(); }

I am working on a school project using arduino and flash.
I am using motion sensor to make a movieclip symbol visible and invisible. I want to play a sound when symbol.visible = true and then turn it off when it is false.
I tried using gotoAndPlay but it said the method was no long supported? so I couldn't do that.
Here is my code
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.XMLSocket;
import flash.events.DataEvent;

I have a number of sound files hosted by a third-party.I would like to embed these on my site in some kind of player for streaming.However, I need to hide the source URLs of these files from my users.The point is to prevent users from discovering information about the third-party services we use, as some of this info is considered proprietary.There is obviously no way to do this in straight html. Most methods that I have seen of embedding audio would leave URLs easily discoverable by just viewing the page source.Is there a good way to keep this data hidden?

I can use flash ok to build stuff, but I usually just build a flash presentation with movieclips and buttons all contained in the one file. I have never had to put my creations onto cd-rom before. So now I am looking at a CD-rom and seeing how someone else has done it and I see that all the .swf files are separated, as will as sound and video. I thought the only reason to do this would be to be able to access and change for example and mp3. without having to open the flash file, but I am thinking there are other reasons?

I 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?

what i want to do is, when certain button is clicked, replace a certain symbol(button) by another symbol(movieclip) stored in the library. i try things like loadmovie("","") to replace the symbol from a external jpg, but some how it does not align even both images are exact dimension. can i replace an image straight from the library?

Basically there's an object in a movieclip. I want to find the location of that object in relation to the movieclip, not of the object's symbol. So when i look at the x and y of it, it wont show 0, it will show the x and y location in the movieclip it's in.

I'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 {

So i've done SOME work with flash and AS3, right now i'm working on a website for my boss, he bought some template online which has stuff laid out and animated and everything already, now I just have to integrate our content.My issue is this, I've got 2 symbols on the screen, one of which contains alot of buttons that list our services as company, the second symbol contains the content (or descriptions) of those services, which on are separate keyframes.What I'm trying to accomplish is that when you hit the button in "symbol A", it affects the "symbol B" and goes to the corresponding keyframe.For example when I click "button 2" in "symbol A", "symbol B" goes to keyframe 2.Now if they were in the same symbol it would be something like
on(release){
goToAndStop(2);
}

We have a flex application which compiles fine on windows box using mxmlc ant task but when we try to run the same build scripts on linux, it throws the 'Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet' error indicating it is not able to resolve the path to the image files.
Can someone pls. educate me on if there is a difference in the way the image files are looked up, in a CSS file, on windows vs linux.
Flex sdk version is 3.3. The same sdk is used on both windows and linux. Not sure if this has been fixed by any future 3.x sdks.

Making a piano/keyboard application and trying to figure out the best way to set this up .I plan on having a directory of sounds for each 'instrument' in my assets folder (piano1/C4.mp3,piano1/D4.mpg,...)Is there a way to import/embed all of these as an array? Also is there a way I can pass a variable to this class to indicate which folder I want to import these from? Something that would be ideal
var type = "piano2"; //passed from class being called by
foreach(notes as note){
[Embed(source = 'assets/sounds/'+type +'/'+note+'.mp3')] private const C3:Class;
public var c3:Sfx = new Sfx(C3);
}
Or would it be a better idea to have a class for each of these "types" that pulls all notes?

I am following this tutorial, [URL] and everything works until i actually try to place a graphic symbol into another symbol. I am trying to make a character walk across the stage. Flash tells me I cannot place a symbol within itself. Why not and how can i!!

I'm making something for my site where you can design your own character. I am trying to set it so when you select a hair style, it'll change the hair style on the person(I already know how to change the color and stuff). How do I do that?? I thought I could do it so it would switch the movie clip with the design of the button you press to get it to change the hair

I am using the following line before my class declaration .
[Embed(source="C:WINDOWSFontsVERDANA.TTF", fontName="VERDANA", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", flashType = true)]
But there is no change in the appearance of the Text whatsoever.. I need the text to be crisp and clear.Just like the way it looks when we embed the fonts using the Embed... Button in the Flash IDE.

I am triggering short sounds dynamically from the library for a game (Specifically Air for Android). When the user clicks a button the sound can take up to 600ms to actually play. I have set it for any silence before the actual sound by calling the sound like so:

All return the same results. I know there are threads here that talk about this but none have offered a real solution that I can find. Is there no way to cache the sound or store it in a buffer?

Library symbol "Card" is linked to class "Card" which extends "MovieClip". Library symbol "Card" contains a card background image.Library symbol "Ace" is linked to class "Ace", which extends class "Card". Library symbol "Ace" contains a TextField with a big letter "A".So we have Ace extends Card which extends MovieClip. Ace therefore extends MovieClip, but does not DIRECTLY extend MovieClip.When I drop an instance of Ace on the stage and compile the clip, all that shows up is the big letter A. However, I expected the background image from Card to be included, since Ace extends Card, and the Card symbol contains the background.It seems like Flash ignores symbol content unless it belongs to the top-level class being instantiated.I think it's LAME that one symbol can't extend another. The IDE could easily draw Card as a non-editable background while I'm editing Ace which extends it, and it should instantiate Card's content and then Ace's content when an Ace is instantiated.

I've been experimenting with learning game coding and have encountered an issue I'm curious about...
At the moment I have 3 GIFs and 1 sound effect being used, with more to come. Now, is it more recommended to embed these files, which I'm been doing, or is it better to load them externally? To be honest, I really hate the idea of having to load them and would much prefer to embed them directly in to my project. What is the general consensus as to which technique is better?

Finally made some dropdown menus for my basic flash website, but now I don't know how to actionscript the symbol (the dropdown menu) within the symbol, which is my page. Because I need the options that come up from the inner symbol to dictate what frame you go to.So my question is, how do you actionscript a symbol within a symbol?

Is there any solution to dynamic fonts yet. I have tried to write classes and followed so much stuff on various blogs but none of them is working. For example, i'm using a font(which is not installed in most machines) say "abc" on my Input and other TextFields/Combos/Radio etc. Now no matter whatever i do, it uses some default font instead of "abc" if accessed from a PC in which this font isn't installed.
One (bad)solution is to embed fonts using the Embed button in "Properties" FOR EACH TEXT FIELd seperately and increase the file size? Still this way wouldn't work for Combos and radio Btns.
