I'm using a set of PNGs to run my cu3er slides. They keep the transparency, until the transition and then they're boxed with a white background. Is there a way to either keep it transparent or set the background color? http://205.186.139.193/ is the test site
Javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {};
flashvars.xml = "<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory');?>/slider/cu3er.php";

I have 2 movie clips, one names mc_frame01 and another mc_frame02. I've tried to set variables and arguments to make it easier when theres more mc_frameXX's. All I want the animation to do is first MC slides in from the right, pauses, then slides off to the left. Then repeat for each MC. With the code below, both MC's seem to slide in from the right at the same time and that's it.

I keep trying to place some pngs in an XML file inside flash. The jpgs work fine but when it gets to the pngs nothing shows up. Do you need to have a special Action Script?

View 1 RepliesI'm putting together a flash animation which has 1 png file replicated quite a few times. to be more precise, a snow flake. When they build up on top of each other im getting strange blotches that should not be there.I have a feeling that because of how many times the image is replicated it is struggling (Flash, not my computer), as when there were only half of the flakes it did not do it.
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to import 258 PNGs into Flash. It gets up to around 200, +/- 1-2, and anything after that has "Bitmap not loaded" were the thumnail image should be in the library.
My computer is running 64 bit Vista with 4gb of ram.
After whittling down of the options we've encountered a problem with PNG's and ActionScript 3 (AS3).
When loading a PNG 8 or PNG 32 with alpha transparancy we're getting the following error reported in Flash:-
"Error #2124: Loaded file is an unknown type" Now, we're dealing with some legacy images, and it appears as though this problem isn't universal - some images believed to be 32bit alpha PNG are loading. BUT, some conclusions:-
converting one image that was 32 bit alpha (NOT WORKING IN AS3) to PNG 8 index transparency DID work.
And converting that same image to PNG 8 alpha DID NOT work.

i have about 70 imgs i brought into the library in Flash CS5. Now the SWF is to big bc there all .png files, i tried to go into properties and change there .png to .jpeg but its a very looooong process, is there any way to highlight them all and either change them but updating the .pngs to .jpeg files ?
View 4 RepliesHas anyone ever encountered this weird, unique error I am gettingWhen I export my program to a SWF all the imported PNGs with alpha transparency (ie; soft edges) render totally wrong - no transparency, very blocky and pixelated. See the attached image for an example;this is out of the blue. Has exported fine recently.

View 5 RepliesFlash can compress .png files like Photoshop can compress .jpg files better than any other tool hands down. I have 77 .png files that are 1.8 .megs on my c: drive after I imported them and setting the file compression under the "File > Publish Settings" to 75% for jpg and published the .swf with all the .png on the stage the file size is 350K that's about 20% of the original file size of the .pngs downloaded file by file with 77 separate request.
I can create linkage in the shared .swf and test the movie with code in the shared .swf to add the movieclip holders for each:
.png to the stage but when I load the shared .swf into the main
.swf Flash acts like it can't create the classes based on the
Linkage I setup or that the MovieClip linkage doesn't exist.
I tried a test to have the shared .swf with all the .pngs and linked movieclips to add the assets to it's own stage and it works fine but that means a lot of my code and logic is included in the shared .swf that the designers need to add .pngs to. We need to have the main .swf get a handle of the linked .png assets and place them in the main .swf to load the assets to different parts of the main .swf. It's cute that the shared .swf can add the linked assets to it's own stage but not too useful.
Also the way we deploy we cannot roll out a new release/build to update the .pngs but we can upload a new .swf to the asset server so the .pngs need to be in a separate .swf. I can get the shared MovieClip to add the linked assets to it's own stage when testing and when loading my problem is the main .swf that loads the shared .swf cannot create instances of the classes that are exported for runtime sharing using linkage.
I have been experementing the the loadmovie command in AS1
it works for JPGS
but i cant make it work for PNGs, GIFs, or BMPs
how do i load external images of these types into flash
I'm currently constructing a scrollbar as part of a website using as3 and png images. I've got loaders for each image inside of an array, and when loading on each image finishes, it's added as a child to a sprite on the stage. I've got a background image with no transparency, which loads fine. On top of that, I've got the actual slider, which loads the RGB data, and appears to be using the alpha as a 1-bit mask. So anywhere that I have partial transparency, it just shows up as black, where it should be showing the background underneath. I can't find any attribute that will change the way loaded images process alpha transparency.
View 2 RepliesI have an artist I'm paying to do animation art for me. I need PNGs for each frame in the animation but she is most comfortable doing her animations in Flash. It sounds like getting the frames for me will be difficult for her. She was able to do the still art we needed and give us that as a frame, but for some reason the animation is different? Keep in mind we need PNGs with full transparency support in the background. We can't be clipping these frames out by hand.

I am trying to print a movieclip with printjob in flash. This movieclip contains two layers: one with a PNG image with transparency and one below with a jpg image. The problem is that the transparency of the png is not respected so the jpg image does not appear. The code i'm using is real simple: var my_pj:PrintJob = new PrintJob();

I have a series of PNG files I need to use in a Flash project.Usually I bulk load my PNGs via an xml or json page.I'm just wondering, what is the difference between loading PNG files this way and adding a PNG to the stage via the Library (say, if you imported a PNG file to the library and then added it to the stage via Actionscript OR if you just dragged it on the stage)
View 2 Repliesi have a transparent (in places) png in a movieclip, can i use that png in the movie clip as a mask? i have seen lots of ways of creating compositions but i need the mask movieclip on the top to be able to mask a movieclip underneath that has lots going on animation wise? is this possible. i dont need answers i just need the right direction or a yes or no, i fail to believe i cant copy the bitmap data of a movieclip (and the transparent png images in it) and then use that as a mask
View 4 RepliesI want to create a flash gallery that simply reads all of the files within a folder (they are all PNGs) and show them on the screen, then move to the next photo after a preset time. This would give us a dynamic was of displaying our content, if we could 'drop' the resource in a 'Images' folder and flash would then read that folder.

I have a simple Flash movie which loads several external PNG-24 images into movie clipsEach movie clip is partially transparent (using alpha transparency), and made drag-and-droppable. Everything works properly except that for each movie clip, I am able to drag and drop the clip using the transparent space around the image. I want the "grab-able" area of each clip to correpond to only the non-transparent areas of the PNG, not a rectangular box around each movie clip.
View 2 RepliesWe're working on a project right now where our animator is creating animations in Flash (the tool in which he's most comfortable) which we need to export for our application. He's using separate sprites (for a person, we'd use eyes, mouth, hair, feet, etc.) and transforming them appropriately. So, if his head is rocking back and forth, one frame might be normal, one might be rotated 20°, another normal, and another -20°, and so on.
What we need is to export all of the sprites used in the animation, along with the transform data for each object in each frame. Unfortunately, the animation is being done in Actionscript, which complicates things somewhat, and because we're using sprite components that we use in multiple places, we want each component of the animation exported separately. As long as we can get it into some kind of more easily parse-able format, we should be fine, but we're not familiar enough with Flash, in a technical sense, to know where to start looking. Solutions in Python would be preferred, since that's the language we're all working in.
I'm having an issue with solid backgrounds showing up behing transparent PNGs in Flash. I know this isn't a lot to go on, but I have no idea what is going on here, My client sent me the attached image.. This is what they are seeing (the green box behind the top of the vehicle). I am not seeing this. Apparently this box, and other similar boxes show up during image transitions.
I am using Tweens to fade between different models and colors of the vehicle. I was originally using Caurina/Tweener, and experienced similar issues myself, but since switched to using the built in tween class, and am not seeing any problems anymore, but apparently my client is.You should be able to see the attached image. You can also view the demo link, to see if you see any issues yourself with the PNGs fading in and out....(you'll have to sit through the intro, then click EXPAND on the final frame)
I am trying to create a slide show using actionscript that changes the images automatically. I have the script for a slide show that has buttons to let the user change the slides. It gets the images from a specified folder (which I want it to do- they are all named 1.jpeg, 2.jpeg...etc which makes it easy to update them) and loads it into an image holder named (imageHolder). There is a function called nextImage which loads the next picture, but at the moment is controlled by the buttons. I'm not sure how to get it to change images automatically using actionscript.

Chapter 11: Basic Tasks: Create a Presentation with Screens.
I'm having trouble how to add PDF files into a slides: I want insert a whole pdf file as separate slide, without splitting pdf file into separate elements: pictures, text, etc. I tried import pdf file into Flash, wheen import there is shown prompt how program should process this pdf file(add in stage, library, as keyframes, etc) , not clear which option is correct for my task. What I got is pdf file splitted into multiple images, text, - which is not what I want. I want keep PDF files without changes, preserve original design and formatting, just convert this pdf into flash, so presentation will consist of PDFs organized in correct order, then add navigation buttons and some effects.
