In my flex 4 project I am using some Spark TextInput components. It doesn't show copy and paste in the right click menu by default. The user needs to copy some text and paste into it. How can we enable this?
View 2 RepliesI'd like to add copy and paste functionality to context menu in my Flex application. After creating a separate dummy project for testing, I realize that such options (cut, copy, paste, and delete) are already available in this dummy project without any coding. Both projects are compiled using Flex 4 SDK, run in the same brower (IE) and have the same version of Flash Player (10.2.153.1). However, different context menu are displayed. Here are the difference:
Orig Project: Print, Show Redraw Regions, Debugger, Settings, Global Settings, About Flash Player...
Dummy Porject: Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, Select All, Settings, Global Settings, About Flash Player...
I'm updating this site for a client:

I can't get "Motion" and "Press" to show as active. Basically this is done via a gotoAndPlay function, but it's not working. In addition, the code also deactivates the menu item when it's active; so, if I was on "Profile" before going to "Web" or "Press," that item remains inactive once I've clicked on "Web" or "Press," so I can't click on "Profile" again until I go to any of the other pages.
Below is the code for the navigation. Also, there is an external file named BookSection.as that I believe contains the code we would need to edit, I just can't figure out what it is - I've tried several edits.
You can find here (I couldn't upload since I don't have more than 50 posts):

I have a vertical menu which is generated via xml. Each menu item also has its own sub menu (not shown). When clicking on the top level item I want the rest of the items to move down to show the sub navigation. i.e.
menu item 1
menu item 2
menu item 3
menu item 4
menu item 1
sub menu 1
sub menu 2
sub menu 3
menu item 2
menu item 3
menu item 4
I have that working fine. Say if I have clicked on menu item 1, and the sub menu is displaying, before i have can view another sub menu I have to click on menu item 1 to close it before I can click on menu item 2.
This is the code that I am using to tell whether or not to move the buttons up or down:
Code:
menuButton.clicked = false;
menuButton.onRelease = function () {
if(menuButton.clicked == false) {
_root.moveMovieDown(buttonNum, buttonHeights);
menuButton.clicked = true;
[Code] .....
Basically I want to be able to click on any menu item button, if a menu item is open, I want it to close, and then open the new one. Just like this one. [URL

View 2 RepliesI have animated a slideshow effect where one frame moves out teh way and another moves into framei am happy with it and now want to repeat it with all teh other images in the slideshowthe problem is, when i copy the keyframes (with a tween) on the first image that I did and try and paste them onto the 2nd image in my series, it actualy charges the image as well ! So that the second image becomes the firts image on the keyframes.Is there a way just to copy the opacity and motion animation ONLY ? My guess is there must be because to animate each picture by hand with a custom ease in & out curve would take forvever
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to work out a better way of doing this animation. I'm working on a project where I need to animate multiple robots picking up parts and dropping them. I've attached a quick demo of the kind of movement I need.At the moment I have a Part MovieClip inside a Robot MovieClip (so it will rotate with the robot) What I can't work out how to do smoothly is, how do I release this Part Movie Clip so I can transfer it to another robot & rotate it following the second robot.I can't seem to copy/paste the Part's last position from the 1st Robot's animation to the 2nd Robot without it changing scale/position. Leaving me to basically position a new copy of the Part MovieClip until it sort of lines up with the old parts and switching between the two in the timeline.

I'd like to copy and paste a set of keyframes and frames at the end of the exisiting timeline... maybe several times to extend the timeline. However I've been a bit flumoxed as to how a simple chore like that is done. It does not appear one can copy the frames, then set the cursor at the end and past the frames ahead of cursor, Or do I have to create multiple layers to get the same effect by placeing them end to end down the timeline.
In the included screen shot, I'd like to copy/paste the frames on layer1 on down the time line but still on layer 1. As you can see I've started using layers to create the same effect... but is that really the way to do it?
I noticed that if you type in tab characters in a Textfield that has embedFonts equal to true and you copy and paste the complete text in that same Textfield, then you loose the tab characters. If no embedded fonts are being used then all works fine.
View 4 RepliesI was trying to follow the photo gallery instructions in Flash MX from this site. I was fine until I got to the line that said... "now copy and paste this code into the actions dialog box." Well, when I opened the action box...where/how do you paste this action. I opened the action box, then clicked movie control, but I do not see a line to add the code. [URL]..
View 1 RepliesI want to be able to copy text which is in italics already from a text box and then paste it into word with it still being in italics.
Is there anyway of copying a word and keeping the italic attribute so that when pasted in a word document it still remains in italics?
I have a created one complex button that I intend to use more than one. When I copy-paste the buttons in CS3 and try to change the text of just one, the text of every buttons is changed.I right-click on the button and select "duplication symbol" to change the features of the button independantly of the others. However the text never gets duplicated and all of my buttons show hte same text.

View 28 RepliesI have a button with animations on scroll-over. How can I 'duplicate' this button, as I want several more buttons with the same template, just different text (and different functions called)?
Sorry for the foolish question, but the Duplicate button is frustrating, as when I change the text in the new button it changes the text in the other button. It's like I'm changing a template.
Perhaps it is a misunderstanding of symbols? I believe symbols are basically template classes...is there a way to generate a new instance of a button symbol?
im makin an arkanoid game where you have to destroy bricks with a ball. I tested the game with a single brick on the screen, and it works fine (the brick gets destroed when the ball hits and adds to the score as well).
But as soon as i try to multiply the movie clip to have lots of bricks on the screen, the ball does not recognize the movie clip and goes straight through it.
Further more, after hitting a particular brick, they all disappear at once!
I'm working for a client that needs me to put a lot of information into flash. He had someone do all the typing and all that in word, with formating and I went through and changed text colors where needed, and now when I'm trying to put it all into flash, it doesn't take any formatting at all. No indents, none of the bold settings, and none of the color settings. I really can't re-do all of the formatting, it would take ages and ages. There must be some way to get this formatting into flash from word (actually using a free program called bean, because i can't even get a copy/paste from word to work at all)
View 3 RepliesWhy is it that sometimes I can clear a keyframe and sometimes not. Not being able to clear a keyframe seems to happen when I copy and paste frames from more than one layer. The keyframe in the first layer copied can't be cleared.
View 1 RepliesIn Flash CS3 is it possible to copy a Keyframed and tweened animation of say a symbol growing larger and paste the Keyframes of the scaling transform onto a different symbol on a different layer so that this new symbol animates in the same way as the first symbol. When I try this with "ctrl alt c / v" the new symbol becomes the same as the old symbol and also moves to the same position too. I need to only copy the scale transform info in the Keyframes. Is this possible?
View 1 RepliesWell, just as the subject line implies, I need to duplicate frames within one of my movie clips, at runtime. Nothin' fancy, just take the frame that's already in the movie clip, and make a second frame identical to the first one, also within the movie clip. I'm using AS2.0, Flash 9. Here's what I'm currently trying (this code is on the main timeline, which also contains the movie clip in question):
with (this.scoreCardPage) {
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().copyFrames();
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().pasteFrames(_root.curPage);}
"scoreCardPage" is the name of the movie clip, "curPage" is the variable indicating the point on the movie clip's timeline where the copied frame should be pasted. I haven't done runtime timeline manipulation before. Anyway, the code, she no a-work. When I run, my movie clip maintains only the frame that I built it with, and does not gain any more. Internet searches pertaining to the inner workings of runtime copying and pasting of frames have been gloriously unproductive.
I've got a dynamic text field that has embedded fonts. When I copy it from one file to another, the pasted text field loses it's embedded checkmarks. I have to open up the embed menu and reselect the appropriate embed keys.
The problem is that this text field is inside a component that many of my coworkers use several times / day in many assets. We just jumped to CS5.5 from 4 and text is now disappearing. I've tracked it down to this issue, but don't know how to resolve it. There's NO reason this dynamic text field should be losing it's embedded..
In ActionScript-2 is there any way the html text can be copied and pasted without formatting loss.
View 1 RepliesI am a flash games developer, and I am currently working on a game that is truly massive. The main file size is over 250MB. It's been a work in progress for about 4 months of solid work. Due to the size of the file, I prefer to create things like characters and objects in another file. I then need to import it over, replacing old movieclips.
When copying and pasting now, it always crashes, or tells me that its run out of virtual memory. It appears to be impossible to get it all over, even bit by bit. I've saved and compacted, I've saved as, I've moved it onto another disk drive. I don't think the file is corrupted in anyway. I've had no problems with any other component of flash. Just the copying. I just don't understand what's so intensive about moving over an object of about 10-20 mb. My computer is quite high performance, 5.6ghz, 4gb of ram.
I've tried using a runtime shared library, but unfortunately it doesn't allow attachmovie to get it from the library. It seems the identifier is only being used to connect the 2 libraries when you set up a runtime shared library. attachmovie is very important to the code and it can't be done any other way.
I have just finished a movie, and want to duplicate it to some other frames.Its a movieclip on frame 1 and it contains a kind of work-calender for 2011 with a lot of different movieclips inside - I want to place a combobox in it where the user can choose what year he wants to see.Is there a easy way to copy frame 1 and just altering the different textfields and data to fit the new year or do I have to duplicate every movieclip and rename functions and variables in AS for the entire movie?
View 2 RepliesBut again, a little more descriptive. I have a editable text section set up like
Artist - (Editable text section)
Your email - (editable text section)
Link - (Editable text section)
(send) - Sends to my email
And I want to make it so people can copy a paste a link from lets say you tube on to it.
I have the text in TLF format to allow it so I can change the color of the input box where the text is located. (Because I do not know how to do it on classic) how to make the box color of the editable text section a different color other then white? (If its a problem.)
Whenever I try to copy and paste as is it shows up but its in a different text style, and its hidden. (That may just be because my text box is black as well.) but i'd still like it to have the same text style when you do paste.)
I have a really complex shape made in Illustrator cs4 that I need to import in flash cs4. When I import my shape in flash , my shape doesn't keep the exactly, precisely same shape. I try to reduce the amount of point with illustrator with Object->path->simplify ... It's help but not enough. My shape is to complex to re-draw one by one every single points as the original. I did some test as in Flash cs3 and this problem dosen't exist. In cs4 you can test it do a circle , the smallest you can and zoom , you will see that the circle is not a circle anymore. (cs3 does't do it)
View 3 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.
