Flex :: Create Static Frame And Change Content Pages In It?
Sep 2, 2010
I need to create a static frame and a changing content... currently envisaged as frame containing the side panel and header and footer content.
The content panel will call mxml based on the content sought.
a) how is the frame paradigm- with static frame "containing" other content done. I dont want to repeat the header and footer logic in every 'content section' code?
b) how is the hyperlinking between content sections done- using 'states' seems convoluted

For example, If I have a SWF that loads XML and images, and displays them, is there some kind of 3rd-party tool that will take this SWF and re-render it as if all the text and images were embedded and not external? So I could just use the same SWF without it relying on image and xml data files?

I have XML pages with some defined structure , now using flex I want to display the content of these pages. The purpose of using Flex is to give better look. If I can use something else which will provide a good UI to display then also its fine.

I am a designer working in a flash file on the navigation part. The web site (is not yet posted) works fine but I need to change the contents when the menu is clicked (contact us, etc. ..). I need to find where the information is so I can change the address, phone number, info. but I have looked everywhere and cannot find it. Where could it be hiding?

I am creating a framed website in Dreamweaver, but I made my navigation menu in Flash w/ AS 3. The frameset has two frames, one is called header and the other is called content.I want the flash menu to stay in the header frame (which it does) and I want the links to change the page in the content frame.I tried targeting the content frame in my function that changes pages, but for some reason it continues to open the new page (link) in a new window.
function newPage(e:MouseEvent):void
{
new Tween(highlight_mc,"x",Strong.easeOut,highlight_mc .x,e.currentTarget.x,12,false);[code]......

I'm re-writing an MXML item renderer in pure AS. A problem I can't seem to get past is how to have each item renderer react to a change on a static property on the item renderer class. In the MXML version, I have the following binding set up on the itemenderer:instanceProperty=callInstanceFunction(ItemRenderer.staticProperty)What would be the equivalent way of setting this up in AS (using BindingUtils, I assume)?PDATE:So I thought the following wasn't working, but it appears as if Flex is suppressing errors thrown in the instanceFunction, making it appear as if the binding itself is bad. indingUtils.bindSetter(instanceFunction, ItemRenderer, "staticProperty");However, when instanceFunction is called, already initialized variables on the given instance are all null, which was the cause of the errors referenced above.

I'm trying out a page-flip program that tells me to create the pages as jpegs within a folder named "pages" in the Library. When I try to run it, it tells me it can't find the jpegs. I can get it to work locally by including the full URL (i.e., "...My Documentsedinnerpartiesimagesp3-large.jpg), but I know this isn't embedded in the swf file.

I am using a flash banner to control the navigation between about 6 different pages. However, I would like the banner to stay the same while the different pages load around it. The banner is in the same place and has a short animation before displaying the nav controls. After clicking a link, the swf starts over again when the new page loads. Is there any way to embed the swf so that it stays constant (both on the webpage and on its own timeline) while the different html content loads beneath it? There are a few examples of this that I have found but I cannot figure out how to do it, for example [URL].

I created a Menu with for Loops/addChild and TweenLite. But I have no clue how to tell flash to what page im going when I press one of the buttons.Because the specifications of the page can only be mentioned AFTER the onComplete function, because the content needs to be added AFTER the animation is finished.

I would like to have some dynamic content on the pages... I want to use it for a website. The problem is, when you click anywhere on the page, it reacts. I tried putting an MC over it to override it, I tried removing the Mouse listener temporarily... I'm not too advanced with AS, but I thought I'd give it a try... Well I just can't figure it out.
Is there any way that I could make it so that when the mouse is in a certain area and is clicked, the pages do not react like they should? With the dynamic content I'm going to need scrollbars and stuff and that just isn't going to work unless I can do this.

I have a component with 2 states and I have added transitions for switching between the states, where 2 Move affects are applied to 2 different objects. This all works fine, however, after the transition from the first state to the second has completed the second state doesn not render correctly. It contains a TextInput control which is not visible, and a Button with a custom skin that is only sometimes visible and vanishes if you click on it. I have tried called invalidateDisplayList() and validateNow() after loading the second state but that has done nothing. I also have a VBox with a cornerRadius property set, strangely this does not seem to apply anymore and the corners are square, where they displayed correctly before I added the transition in.Here is the code for my states and their transitions:
<!-- different states of this component -->
<mx:states>
<s:State name="useForFree"[code].....
where the variables being set as masks are UIComponent instances where I have used their graphics property to draw a rectangle.

I'm have made some buttons (movie clip) and when I click on it, I want a file (home.swf) to load in a loader (mx.contents.loader) and I want the other buttons to do the same, all load into the same loader. I have no Idea how to do that. The way I have it set up now, the home.swf will load over the entire screen and that is not what I want. I just want the content to load into the loader and have its content change once I click on the other buttons. Here is a copy and past of that I have at the moment, I'm using Flash 8 to do it all.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to make a static mask with dynamic content (as in a picture you can zoom/pan) in ActionScript. I've seen a lot of the opposite (see here), where you have static content (like an image) and a dynamic mask on top that you can manipulate. I would like to do the opposite - have a static mask (set at some size at some area) with dynamic content underneath. So for example, a user could zoom in/drag around some content, and the display size wouldn't change, while the content would move. You could imagine Google Maps being confined to a smaller square and being able to zoom in/manipulate the map through that square, and have whitespace outside of that square.

I'm about to start a project where there will be a Flash application where the visitor customizes a profile with externally loaded images and texts. Then the visitor needs to be able to download that profile as a dynamically created swf with all that external content baked into the swf.

I am planning to create a photo/video gallery secured by a pin. So i plan to have 4 pages, Login, Menu, Image Page and Video View. Login would be a simple textbox where i check the pin. The Menu would show all picture albums and videos in a list i create with clickable sprites or buttons or something like that. And a video view where a video will be shown if i click on a video link on the menu page.
I tried to prepare the scene in flash cs5, so i decided to create 4 frames. ALl pages have their own layer. The first will be the login, second the menu, third the image view (incl. thumbnail show and fullscreen view popup) and a video view. On each keyframe i put a rectangle converting it into a MovieClip acting as the main container where all the stuff will come into.
Now i tried to initialize all these MovieClips by resizing them everytime the stage is resized. For this i get errors, that some of the MovieClips are null. This is because the MovieClips exist only keyframe 2 for the menu or keyframe 3 for the image page and keyframe 4 for the video view. So i have to put them all into keyframe 1 to be able to access. But i created 4 keyframes because i want to jump to them by using "gotoAndStop( n)", where n stands for keyframe 2, 3 or 4.
I dont get it, how does Flash interpret the code and how is the visibility of these MovieClips. Can i only access the MovieClip from keyframe 2 because i added it on keyframe 2 only? What is the best solution to have a simple 4 page app where on page 1 (menu) i click on video link which holds some sort of ID of the video, then i jump to keyframe 4 for the video view providing it with that ID, but how to do that when Actionscript doesnt even know there is a video container MovieClip. To get Actioscript to know all of them, i have to move them to keyframe 1, but then how to do the paging stuff.

So I'm working on a new flash site project for my boss. I've not done a flash site before so am learning as I go.
What I wanted to get advice on is the best way to build the set of pages. As you see from the homepage, there are 8 buttons there in total.
Obviously, when one is clicked, it will take you to that page *collections, profile, etc etc....). I am in the process of creating these pages but want to know what's the ideal way to set up the fla.
Is it best to create each page as internal movie clips inside the actual site.fla and then using the attachmovie command attach them to a main container_mc? Or is it best making them separately and loading them externally, loadmovie to a container_mc?Or do I set each page at a different frame on the main timeline and get the button to jump to that frame, which then plays the movie via one of the methids above?

I'm creating flash site which will have different backgrounds for each page. I'll load the individual pages with "MovieClipLoader." My understanding about MovieClipLoaders is that, it doesn't matter the background of your mc, the page to which you are loading will maintain it's background.

I created a very simple website with the flash export capability of Adobe Encore. To my disappointment there is a noticeable black flash between the different pages which makes the project basically useless. What is causing the black frame and is there a way to fix it? I have included all the files involved as an attachement so you can take a look at the code if you want!

I'm creating website that I want to put my resume and portfolio on as different Flash applications. For my resume it would be like a mini-web site that has various linking buttons to different pages. I tried to use scenes b/c I had a professor who told us to use scenes to create our pages/animations, and the scenes concept did not work with the actionscripting.
I then read online that scenes were not the way to go. So I'm trying to use Frame Labels to create this - right now I made a menu movie clip that I have my actionscript in for each button - the buttons have the correct instance names and I have my frames properly labeled with their movie clips attached to each for each part of the resume/page portion.
This is the code I'm using in the Menu movie clip. The problem I'm having is that when I click on each button - nothing happens! I tried this one, and nothing happened:
education.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, educationCLICK);
function educationCLICK(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay('education');
};
And then I tried to re-order it and nothing happened:
function educationCLICK(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay('education');
};
education.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, educationCLICK);

I'm a bit of a newbie, wondering how this scaling effect is possible. See www.sagmeister.com - when you scale your browser window, the entire site interactively shrinks or enlarges to fit. How is this done with Flash MX? Is it a publishing option or an actionscript or what?

I am trying to create a project with multiple pages. I stumbled across a tutorial demonstrating how to load and unload swf's. I used it and it works. way i could specify a btn or mc in the loaded swf that will specify the "click" area where the unload content takes place? Right now if i click anywhere on the loaded swf it unloads (i want that to be specified).
