Sending A Swf Movie Is Correct?
Sep 24, 2009
Using CS4. I made a little 300x250 animated ad to place into online newspapers and published a swf movie. At work, they opened it in safari and it shows the whole safari screen and objects outside of the 300x250 boundary show up. Can I assume that when it goes into the 300x250 slot in the newspaper only the ad will show with it's true boundaries? They think at work that the newspaper will shrink down the whole thing. And sending a swf movie is correct? Not some other file type? And is it correct to save the movie for Flash Player 10 or would 9 be a safer bet?

I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?

I'm having issues displaying movie clips in the correct order. I'm pulling in data from an xml file, in this case images and then create movie clips to hold them. I'm getting the right order from the actual Array when looping through the xml file but when I create the clips the order gets all screwed up. how to order the clips exactly the way they are in the array?

if for example I'm creating a scene with falling snowflakes. In the movieclip is there a way of correctly knowing which area of the main scene you're working in? Or is it just a case of creating the movie, then returning to your scene and placing in where it's appropriate?

It's supposed to cause each of five movie objects to correspond and go to a different named frame when they are clicked. The problem is that regardless of which one is clicked, it always goes to "animation." I tested it out by changing the name of the animation frame. The result was that it then always went to the "publication" frame. It would seem that it goes to the last valid named frame in the script.[code]...

I am an AS3 n00b with hopefuly a simple question I am designing a simple game in flash. This code creates an array of movie clips and asigns a picture to each one. It is a map screen. What I need is when I click on one of the created movie clips, I need it to return either the index of the clip in the array or the name of the clip. Basicaly anything I can use to tell them apart in the code. Here is the code:
[Code]...
Now all this works fine, it creates the map and assigns the correct picture and places them in the correct X,Y position and it is the correct grid of 27x27 squares. The problem is with the name, when I click on the movie clip, it returns "Instance2" or "Instance5" or whatever. It starts with 2 and then increases each number by 3 for each clip, so the first one is 2, then 5 then 8 and so on. This is no good. I need it to return the name that I assigned it. If I put the code in trace(MapSquare[1]) it will return the name "MapSquare1" so I know the name was assigned, but it isnt returning.

I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS4 with all the latest updates. The FLA is an Actionscript 3.0 file. I am creating a basic flash site with several pages that change when the user clicks links on a left side navigation bar. on the pages are sub tabs that change out different content(text) based on what the user clicks on the current page. when they click a button it triggers an event listener, the event listener runs its function which changes the definition of an already defined (String) variable, and the page goes on to a frame checks what that variable is and then leads the movie to the correct frame that the corresponding content is on.
here's the issue: it works perfectly the first few times, and then the event listeners stop working, first one of them, then all three once i click one of the two available. i started this site before i even knew what a class was(regretably), and all the code is on the timeline in different frames.

I have 4 shapes which fit into 4 boxes and would like to modify my code so when a shape is placed in the correct box a movie clip appears e.g. if a triangle is placed into a triangle shape the movieclip for triangle appears. if the shape is placed into the wrong box a message appears saying try again.

I have an if like this:
on (release) {
stopDrag ();
if (_root.go_blue._droptarget == "/g_target")[code]...
This works. I need to add "if (test = "one")", another drop sets this variable and the drop above should test for it. But I can't get the basics right! I'm a programmer who is new to Actionscript. What I want is:
"If the variable is correct AND if it is dropped on the target (g_target) THEN play the movie, ELSE go back to _x=130, _y=300."
The variable is being assigned correctly, I tested it with a Dynamic text box. The movie isn't running with my code!

I'm having trouble with this previous posted tutorial. I followed the instructions step by step but it just didn't work for me.In the PHP Script I replaced this line:
$Email = $_POST['email'];
With this line:
$Email = "my@email.com";
So I know the problem isn't there. I have recorded 1min.11sec screen shot video of exactly what I did.Click her for the screenshot Part 2: Sending variables from a Flash Movie to a PHP script, and then using that PHP script to send an e-mail.

I am making a thing on my flash animation with a 3d planet spinning. When you move your mouse over it the planet will stop and contact info comes up, and when you rollOut the planet continues spinning and the contact info fades away. I have everything working but i cant get the planet to stop spinning when i do this because the button controls the fade but the planet is just spinning in the backround, hard to explan. Anyways i need to be able to send a stop and play action to the planet movie clip behind the button to stop. i need to send an action from Scene 1>universal>destinationclip>world. from a keyframe on the destination clip.

I'm running into an issue with a Library class not being able to get the correct getQualifiedClassName. Here is my setup. I have a lot of MovieClips on the stage with instances names like item0, item1, item2 and so on. What I need to do is extend some of those items and give them extra functionality so I opened the items Symbol properties dialog box that I wanted to add a custom Base class to and Checked Export For Actionscript. Kept the Class name the same as the stage instance name. as it needs a unique class name. Then for the BaseClass I added a path to my class that I wanted each item to have extra functionality. The base class was called StageItem which extends MovieClip

I have read all kinds of posts on this, most are old from back in the early 00's. I have some flash banners that I made that need .gif back ups and I find myself pretty screwed if I can't do this. I tried exporting an .swf thru the publishing settings in Flash and no matter which setting I choose the gifs are pixelated and very bad quality. I just finished reading a post where it said to use the file - export from the menu which I did use and the quality is much better but nothing near acceptable for the client.
I also read to export the swf to Quicktime and QT can convert to animated gif so while I look at that option is there someone that can point me in the right direction as this could spell trouble for me if I cannot come up with a solution as I have multiple swfs that need to go through Google analyctics and need the gif back ups.

On my website I go to "movie explorer" and go through all the ActionScript and on the bar tab it does open upa moving vertical options (it shows up when I have it in swf or preview it) but while I am in Flash CS4 I can't find it....there are extra componentsin separate files inside the folders (mx) and (tm). It is not live on my site yet but what I am trying to do is have certain tabs go directly to a different webpage (not all of them to the flash tabs as specified) as you will see by visiting my site: [URL]

When I make a MC and I put another MC inside of it, whenever I write code in the frame of the main stage to use the child MC's x and y coordinates, I get the child MC's coordinates in respect to the _parent MC. If what I wrote didnt make any sense, what I mean is that if I make a tank MC named tankBody and a turret MC named tankTurret, and I stick them both in a MC called tank, if I write code that moves the tank MC's y the tankTurret and tankBody's y will stay the same. How can I make it so that I can read tankTurret's y & x coordinates in repect to the main stage?

I have a background image at 720x576px. My flash document is also set to the same. When I import my graphic and drag it onto the stage it is a completely different size?
This means I have to re-size using the free transform tool, and as I have to re-size many images for different movies that have to be exact, what is the best way to re-size them? Should my imported image not fit the stage size exactly without re-sizing at all?
