I want to copy a .swf file I have and paste it into another one, frames and all. I have tried but nothing gets copied over correctly. Either that or my buttons are on a single frame.. and no longer act like a button with the -Over-Up-Down-Hit frames.
View 3 RepliesI have a graphics application that uses Flash
I cannot copy or paste using the Windows clipboard.
how I can enable these functions?
My situation: I've got 7 frames of animated motion that is exactly the way i want it. I want these 7 frames of motion to loop so it gets to around 300 frames. So rather than doing every frame manually (which takes ages) i went to copy and paste motion.
So i highlight my 7 frames and click 'copy motion'. Then I try pasting them and i get the error mesage (in the attached picture) that nothing is selected. But i've clicked on the 8th frame, the place were i want the motion to begin, but still it says this error message.
So then i insert a new frame on the 8th frame space and paste the motion over the top of the 8th frame, but it misses the first 2 frames of animation (therefore messing eveything up) out and the motion is also wrong on top of that!
Alright so I'm making an animation with Osama Bin Laden. I need a picture of his face so I went to Google and got the picture. Then I went to Paint to crop it out. I went to flash and there's a white box around the picture. How do I get rid of it?
View 1 RepliesThere is the Text Clipboard function getContents and setContents as well some other functions I do not seem to be able to figure out. I also know there is a CopyOperation function and a PasteOperation function and I cannot figure these out either.A little example of how to use each function would be nice, if someone will take the time to help me out, Please.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to copy frames from 6 different layers along with the objects (action script, tween motions, buttons, graphic elements) from one movieclip to another. But once I do that, everyhting seems to be shifted and if I try to reposition the items in the new clip, it seems like I would have to repeat after every keyframe for each layer.
So my question is A. Is there a way to duplicate a movie clip but give it a instance name (an entirely new movieclip with the same frames and layers in the same position as the previous)?
B. How can I move mutliple objects across layers and keyframes?
Copy/Pasting working movieclips to link causing errors (source included)?

View 1 RepliesA web channel streaming service streams to a certain IP range, it only checks the IP in example.com/cmd.php?id=xxx (channel number) and outputs an rtmpe stream URL, nothing else.How do I trick it to get my local URL instead of the one on their server? I have considered squid proxy, but is there some way to do it with a firefox plugin or greasemonkey script?
Edit:I will try to specify:It's a streaming service from an ISP and cable provider. They stream for free to people on their IP's. On their webtv page, which is called webtv.example.com, there is a flash player. If you are not on an IP from their ISP, you can't stream anything but the test channel.When you try to change channel via. javescript:videoplayer_changechannel(xxx) it makes this HTTP request:
[URL]
If you are on one of their IP's you will get an RTMP URL, like this:
[URL]
This is what the flash player requests, and if it get's this response it load the channel requested. There is no HTML on the php page, just the URL. Note that the rtmp URL is static.If you are not on one of their IP's it will return a random sentence (something stupid, the programmers having fun).I wan't to trick the flash player into getting the right value, even though it's not on one of the ISP's IP's.
I have a swf page that I would like to convert to a png file. Before I convert the file, I would like to zoom in to the swf file so that I have a larger image. I try swftools to convert, but the png image quality is not good enough: Zoomed-in png image looks too blurry.
I should do to capture/use a zoomed-in version of a swf file. A linux compatible command line tool would be great as I am thinking of converting hundreds of images.

View 1 RepliesI am having a problem which I I'm pretty sure (hope), there should be an easy answer to. I want to take frames out of a movie clip in a Flash file and paste them on the main timeline. The problem I am having is Flash is pasting them back on the stage in a different spot than where they were when I copied them. This is totally messing up my tweens! Is there a way I can get Flash to paste them in the exact position as they were in when copied?
View 2 RepliesI have just moved to CS5 and have found that an important part of my workflow has been compromised as a result. Whereas I love to use Flash as a drawing tool and move elements from here to illustrator, then from Illustrator to Photoshop as a shape layer - I have found that Illustrator CS5 renders everything that I paste from flash as a bitmap.I note that there are several options inside Flash to determine how it imports Illustrator files, but I cannot seem to find similar options within Illustrator to change how it deals with objects pasted from flash.

View 8 RepliesI have been trying to copy a movie clip from the library of one flash and paste it into the library of another. But when I do this, it always gives me, "One or more library items already exist in the document.
I have tried finding and renaming those items, renaming the existing movie clip, and even changing it into a graphic instead. Still it always replaces these certain movie clips in my main flash file.
I even tried the following: Creating a new movie clip in the new file. Then going into the movie clip of the other file I wish to copy over, and trying to copy its frames and put it into the new movie clip i created in the main file. Even then, it says I'm replacing library items!

View 3 RepliesI'm having an odd problem that I can't seem to resolve. I'm updating some old animations (created around 2004-2005). Most have gone without a hitch, however one file has been a problem.
First the specs: Windows 7 64bit, Master Collection CS5.5. All updated.
The problem with the file:
I can open it just fine, test the movie, etc. If I try to save the document, it fails, saying "Unable to save the document as...". I can save the file as a CS4 document, which seems to work OK. However, I need to move the contents into a new document. If I try to Copy the laters, Flash immediately crashes.
I have my own conf.xml file (src/conf/conf.xml) consists some properties (alphas, colors,etc). When i try to export release build, I see list of files which not includes that file.Why? When i run my application at debug it file places in "bin-debug" folder.
View 1 RepliesI put a .wav sound file in a movie (movieA). The total frame, say 100 frames. I now selected frame 10 to 30, right click the selected frames and click "Copy Frames". I then open a new movie (movie B), right click the first frame and click "Paste Frames". But I found that the movieB copied the whole frames as those in the movieA. May be there is an aternative way to copy and paste partion of a .wav file.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to paste some non-dynamic text from a mockup from illustrator into flash. This is something I've done a million times before but my new version of flash(cs5) is giving me issues. The default format when you paste text is now TLF which has a ton of problems associated with it and I don't want to use it. If I paste the text in and then change it to "classic text" it changes the layout of the text which makes me basically have to redo my text layout. Is there a way to change the way text gets pasted in and make it default to classic text?
