Flash :: Rename A Dependent .as File Without Breaking The .swf?
Oct 5, 2011
I'm working on a flash project and wanted to rename an .as file. When I changed the name, the .swf breaks. Is there anyway I can remap the .as file to the .fla from CS5.5?
just wanted to know where is it preferred to keep your .as files? I've seen examples where people store them in a separate folder (ex. Actionscript/MainTimeline.as) but I've also seen examples where people just keep all the .as in their .fla file.
I need to rename an xml file and then change its contents so I use this:ActionScript Code:[code].....
On the event complete,I open the xml i just renamed, open it, change some information and then I have to write it, however flash tells me the file is still being used :S
ActionScript Code: function renombrarArchivo(e:Event):void{[code]....
Am I doing something wrong? I mean I'm using the onComplete on the moveTo to make sure the copy is done and then I open the file to be able to overwrite it, however flash keeps telling me the file is still open.
anyone have a fla file (flash document with swf file) to rename a notepad file (text file) / Create a notepad file (ex : Test.txt) in Drive C or D or place where we save the fla file. I don't care about inside the test.txt.... "abc" or no text...
I tried to use the following to rename and move a flv file to a different folder but it doesn't work.....I tried several combinations but can't seem to figure out how to do it.
fileObject3 = new File("streams/"+insID+"/"+stream+".flv"); fileObject3.renameTo("streams"/"adName"/"+adName+".flv");
Hopefully this is a straight forward question but as far as resources when compiling a flash project is flash more cpu dependent or gpu dependent? Trying to spec out a machine and need to determine what flash is going to use more.
My testing on the Mac side is pointing toward the Behaviors palette as to the culprit in this issue. As soon as I open that palette in my workspace, the ability to double click on a layer name in the Timeline palette stops. I have to right click and select Properties from the popup menu. Resetting my custom workspace does resolve the problem.
I'm working as a freelancer in a flash project. The project includes a list of as2 files which I need to edit and debug. I was going to do that using flash cs3 but every time I try to open an as2 file I get an "Unexpected file format" error message. The files are strictly text and (not binary), but it seems flash cs3 won't open files with a '.as2' extension (e.g.scriptfile1.as2). If I rename the file so it holds the .as extension (e.g. scriptfile1.as) then cs3 opens it fine. Unfortunately I cannot rename these files since I'm not the owner of the project, I merely make some modifications.
I have recently deployed a website created in Flash CS4. Some of the user reviews about content are rolling in and most people agree that I mislabeled a button "References" when it should have been "Referrals".This website only has six pages but the Reference button occurs on almost all of them.Is there a quick and easy way to change the button text without changing anything else about the functionality of the button.
I'm trying to load an iframe into a div via ajax. The iframe serves Flash content.
There are four divs (above each other) with the same Flash-through-iframe implementation, and I show and hide these divs to correspond with the user's navigation. This works well, except in Safari. I triple-checked my JavaScript that toggles the divs (using display: none and display: show), but it doesn't work in Safari.
I've been using these flash mp3 buttons, Wimpy Buttons, from [URL] for playing audio samples of cd tracks on a website for a record label. If there's more than 15 of them on a page, the audio breaks and won't play from any of them in any browser except for IE. I've noticed this in revisions 124 and 115 of Flash 9. I downgraded to revision 47, and it restored the functionality. I've tested this on multiple computers. Some XP and some Vista. On Macs it seems to be working fine with revision 124 in different browsers. I've also noticed this problem on other websites that are using various different Flash movies for playing audio--when there's more than 15 Flash movies on the page, the audio breaks.
I�l loading some text from a xml filme into Flash (dinamic text field)But I can�t break the lines. When trying to break the lines with ENTER on the xml, the flash breaks two lines.I learned that using #&10; the lines would break just once. But how can I make this if I�m going to build a xml editor using php? Is there another method of breaking lines when desired on xml?
I have a banner rotator fla file that has an xml file for producing the content.How do I rename the xml file from"config.xml" to "BannerConfig.xml" and still have it work with the flv file?
would this be considered a bug in my code (AS3 and Tweener) or a problem with the SWF and its interaction with HTML?When I test the SWF in Flash, there's no breaking it.I can't break it at all works exactly like it's suppose to.When I embed it in Flash, it breaks in an odd way.I have two buttons, left and right. When the buttons are clicked, images on stage move in the direction they're clicked.When embedded, if I click a button really fast, the images start tripping over each other. Strange thing is, it's only to the left button and not the right, but the code is exactly the same for the right & left movement. If I click the buttons slowly everything works as expected.All of this while again everything works great in Flash itself. No errors.So, at the very least I'm trying to find out if this would be considered a but with my code or a problem with the browsers and the Flash player.
This slideshow used to work fine, until you install 10.1. I run it in the Flash CS4 and CS5 IDEs and it works fine. Does the Flash CS5 IDE use the 10.1 player? If not, how can I make it?
I'm working on a Google Chrome extension that monitors mouse events. For some reason the following javascript code in the extension's content script is causing embedded Flash content to break:

If you mousedown inside a Flash element, it never registers the mouseup and it appears as though you're still holding your mouse button down even though you've let go. At first I thought it was some kind of event bubbling issue, that this method was swallowing the event, so I tried returning true (and false for that matter) but it didn't seem to have any effect.
I've got a Flash site that uses a loadvars object to load a csv file that I then parse into arrays. The swf works great locally and on two hosts I have tested it on. However, I can't get it to work on the host server I own (er..rent). The HTML file, swf and csv are all stored on the same level and I've even included a policy file just in case. Additionally, I have changed the path to the csv in the Flash file several times to see if that was the issue. I created a trace that indicates my data is loading, but the functionality isn't working, leading me to believe the parsing is at issue. Any ideas why this file would work fine on two other servers but bomb on a third?? I'm completely stumped.
i am trying to create a flash movie for my browser page. i am able to import and export the movie just fine, the problem comes after i export the movie. As long as i leave the flash file in the folder it was created in things work great. If i try to move the folder or rename the folder it stops working. It acts like it cant find the flv file i created the flash with. if i rename or move the folder back where it was created things work fine.
I'm making a simple puzzle-building game. It's working, but I have just spotted an odd in-game behaviour...When I pick up a piece of the puzzle and move to the left side of the swf, the game runs at a playable frame rate. The farther I move the mouse to the right, the frame rate (or at least update rate) seems to drop.The only code it's running at that point is a method that checks which piece is carried and moves that piece's x and y coords to match the mouse.I've already tried using 'updateAfterEvent' with no change.
I'm building a Flex/AIR application that connects to a remote server, the URL of which changes depending on the environment (development/production, and possibly others). For now, this URL parameter is hardcoded in my root application MXML file but it means I have to change it everytime I build my app for a different environment.Is there a way to externalize such a parameter so that when Flash Builder automatically builds my app (in development mode), it uses the development URL
I have a function which makes the line size change dependent of the speed of the cursor. Faster movements = thicker line. It works as it should, but im trying to call it thru external Interface an a .Js. The line size changes but not when drawing, it looks like it bases the line size on the speed the cursor had before the mouseDown is fired. So it changes speed but not while drawing.
ActionScript Code: var prevPt:Point=new Point(mouseX,mouseY); ActionScript Code: var THICKNESS:Number = 1; function mouseDown(_x:Number, _y:Number):void {
I have a flash application that is split into 12 frames at the top level.When I view the Actions pane, the Scene 1 list reads:ActionScript: Frame 1ActionScript: Frame 2etcIs it possible to rename the frames so the list becomes more readable? egActionScript: IntroductionActionScript: UnitsetcI've tried with frame labels and that doesn't seem to work.
I'm wondering if there's a fancy option to rename ALL movie clips in a library at once.I want to import a full library of movie clips into a different project, but both projects have similarly named movie clips. Is there an option to import them but just add "1" to the end of the name or something? All I want to do is quickly add a letter or number to the end of a huge list of movie clips.
We have a flash vector type map with pan and zoom ability and need to have layer1 which features a simple flash vector map visible from the initial overview until when the user has zoomed in to a certain amount when a more detailed layer2 flash vector map then appears and layer1 disappears. I would imagine a code turning off or on visibility of a layer dependent upon the zoom is what we need.
I'm trying to make an online advent calendar, and I want to know whether it is possible to add an actionscript code to a button in flash, so that it wont be visible or active until a certain date?
