Get Text To Move Towards A Graphic In Playback?
Jul 2, 2009
My brother is currently living overseas with his girlfriend and is flying home for a visit in August/September this year so I have decided to mark the occasion by creating a 3-scene Flash movie. Just there now I had the plane on the stage, I had the names moving towards the plane but when I played the scene back the text and the plane weren't on-screen at the same time, as the text and graphic were in different layers. My question is how do I make it look like the text is moving to get on the plane and vice versa as in the next scene I obviously want to have the plane flying towards the airport, (more text) i.e how do I merge the layers or is merging the layers not what I need to do?

I'm kind of new in flash. the basics are oke, but now i'm trying to make my own website i found out my limits.[url]...
it works fine, but now i try to expand my content, i realise my start wasn't ideal. I started with a'homescreen' and both screens on the side. made with tweens all the animations, the buttons are programmed with a goto(movieframe).so you click, goto the animation, and after it, you go back to a frame with the new screen-content.
for putting new content on my website i have to change screen itself, the screens around it and the animations around it.

All I'm trying to do is move one graphic (converted to symbol) from one side to another. However, when I try to put in the 'motion tween' it keeps saying "Multiple objects are selected, you must convert them to a symbol in order to tween them. Do you want to convert them and create a tween?" If I click 'Ok' it comes up with "The tween could not be applied to some of the selected frames. This could be due to the frame containing ActionScript, Multiple objects, non-tweenable objects or being on a layer that cannot be a tween layer"

I've been wondering something, websites like youtube (pandora does mp4s) play their music through a flash player. while each track is played, they're downloaded to the user's computer, e.g., /tmp/FlashXX*** This allows users to go and move the flv out of that folder for later playback.
However, when the user moves the flv out of the /tmp folder, the player continues to play the music/video quite happily. How does the flash player handle the removal of its file and why doesn't it throw errors from this?
More importantly, why are the flvs downloaded to the user in the first place if the player plays happily without them?

I don't really know how to describe this problem but I'm going to give it a try. I am working in Flash cs3 using as3. I have a project with 5 scenes and button nav to jump between them. When I test the project scene 1-4 play fine however when I get to scene 5 the playback head doesn't move, it just stays parked on frame 1 (button nav works, animation does not). When I re-arrange the stacking order of my scenes the same problem will occur in a different scene that had previously played fine. This issue only occurs when i test the whole movie - if I test any scene by itself it plays fine. I am not getting any AS errors which adds to the frustration

I am trying to get the f4v movie called myMovie.f4v to move forward one frame at a time every 10 seconds. I created a countdown that makes the movie play after x amount of seconds but I need to make the movie advance only one frame and the count again.
import fl.video.*;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
var flvPlayer:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
addChild(flvPlayer);
[Code] .....
I need to change this line to step the movie one frame forward kind of a play next frame.

I'm using Flash CS3 Actionscript2 I'm using the FLVPlayback component and using SteelExternalAll as my skin.I noticed that the SeekBarHandle does not move while the video is playing. I can drag the handle to go to different parts of the video, but it does not move by itself as the video plays.I've already tried setting the total FLV video length in the parameters, but that didn't work.

I have created some graphic symbols from text (convert to symbol>>graphic), and when I double click them (in the editor), they remain text. Others from several month ago seem to remain symbols when double-clicked. The other thing I have noticed is some of my buttons have bulls-eye type circles on top of them, while new ones I create have an empty black circle. All the new ones I created do not seem to work properly, and I am wondering why this is by working backwards.

How do I replace a graphic symbol ? It is actually made up of 3 layers including a textbox and bullet. When I double click on the symbol, I get the Text Properties menu.
When I single click on the symbol on the stage, the properties menu shows a Swap button. When I choose the correct symbol and click OK, it looks like it worked but it still shows the original symbol name (Instance of it) on this Properties menu.
Another issue is that when I change one of the symbols (by double clicking on the symbol and then double clicking on the text layer), it does change the text on that layer. However, then it changes the text on the other symbol as well even though they are different symbols.
Note that I can edit the original symbol and the new one. Both symbols are different. In other words, they each show the different text (which is what I want). It's like the original symbol is attached/embedded and cannot be changed.
Background on this issue: Rather than create a brand-new layer, I copied all the frames in a layer to a new layer because it has a motion tween on it. I only need to change the symbol that is in the motion tween. This is the only action/event happening on both layers.

I'm working on a scrolling dynamic text box that uses text loaded from an external file. I cannot seem to get the scrolling to work properly though. The text is loading correctly, but when I drag the scroller, the text box moves in exactly the same fashion as the scroller (not in opposite directions and at a 1:1 ratio). However, I copied the actionscript from another file of mine where the code works, so I kept piddling around.
I found that if I drop a rectangle or any image/graphic into the movieclip along with the text box, then it scrolls perfectly. The problem appears to be with the actionscript not recognizing the length of the text, even though it all appears to be loading. Resizing the text box manually doesn't change anything. I can see a half line of text where the mask ends, leading me to believe the rest of the text is there, and when I drop a rectangle graphic in, then I can see text that I otherwise can't scroll to. How can I make the scrollbar function with only the text box within the movieclip? I unfortunately cannot upload the FLA, because its a professional project and I'm not allowed to post the files at the moment, but I'll copy and paste my the scrolling portion of my actionscript here:

I've watched Lee's video on the Flash CS4 preloader a few times now but have not been able to figure out how to switch a movieclip for the dynamic text field.
Here's what I'm trying to do. My logo is a handwritten font. I've used the eraser tool over 100 frames to simulate the handwriting taking place, during the preloading process. Hopefully this will start at Frame 1 and go up to Frame 100 based on the percent of the external file loaded.
I just don't get how to change the AS from the video tutorial to have it work for my application. I don't have the 'percent_text' dynamic field obviously so the two lines which pertain are wrong, but that still doesn't get the movieclip [called logoLoader] to engage the script.
Here is Lee's script:
Code: Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("content.swf"));

This happends in a *quite heavy* flashproject at work. And what's even more interesting is that it doesn't happend every time. It seem's to be at random. What happends is that text in textfields would move ~1px in X or Y. Have anyone else encountered this?
I thought that it was the layout code that sometimes was updated but no luck with that. And it is not that the text is getting reset either. But it seem's to happend on mouse-input ( press / onRelease ).
This has been tested on different computers and it moved on all, nut in different ways.

OK. I have a textfield which I am assigning text to dynamically. I would like this text to move from left to right as it comes into the textfield, similar to a wall street ticker.
