I am attempting to insert links into a video as it is played back. So that a link and descriptive text appear either on or below a video as the narrator movies between subjects. I'm work with a flash video. I think I need to do this using ActionScript (I'm using CS3) but I've never worked with action script. Could someone provide a good...
I'm making a flash, which is basically a very simple tracker. My question is about sequential playback and more specifically timing problems. The SoundChannel-object conveniently provides a SoundCompleted-event, but relying on that results in tiny gaps between sounds, which (sadly) makes it useless. All I've managed to dig up so far, a...
When I import a .png file into the library in Flash CS3, I noticed that the system always creates an extra symbol in the library. If I import, for example, foo.png, into the library, it not only creates a bitmap with the same name, but also a Symbol of the type "Graphic" with the default name, e.g. Symbol 576. I am not using these symb...

I added a standard Flash ComboBox component to my CS3 (AS2) project. It is part of one of my library symbols, not created on the stage. I did not make any changes to the skinning, source code, etc. of the ComboBox. When the user clicks on the ComboBox, the list drops down, the user uses the mouse to select an item, and that item is pas...
We recently made the switch to CS4 on a Mac from CS3 on Windows. Now we are having issues getting our flash movies to load. We get the "Movie not loaded.." error. We are using swfobject. The same Flash file worked fine prior to editing with CS4 on the Mac. ...
Hi, OK - weird problem which happens each time - and so I'm thinking I must just be missing something very obvious. If in Flash CS3 I drag a Button component to the stage, and in the Document Class I hide that button with visible = false; - it works fine. However, if I change the label of that Button from it's default 'Label' to anythin...
Can anyone help me? I us Flash CS3 a lot to draw, and usually, as it should be, the line tool draws a clean vector line. But sometimes when I use this tool the line appears jagged, as if it were a bitmap. What's happening? Did I accidentally hit a keystroke that changes one state to the other? ...
I can upload image but the sprite name remains pict1 each time I upload another image. Why doesn't imgVal function increase? function imgVal() { img += 1; trace("image: pict" + img); } imgVal(); _fla.lights_mc.visible=false; _fla.lights_mc.stop(); _fla.pre_mc.fill_mc.stop(); _fla.pre_mc.visible=fals...
Hi, I have a requirement of uploading an image to flickr through an application in Flash AS 2.0. I am not clear with the authentication process. Could anyone help me out with this? Thanks in advance. ...
I have a two frame Flash CS3 animation. On the first frame, I am (successfully) loading four images onto the frame, and rotating through them (successfully) using TweenLite. When the user clicks on a button, a variable (resumeVideoOn) is set to indicate the current image that the user was looking at, and they are taken to frame2 which p...
Hello, I am using the frames in the timeline of a .swf as pages in a flash app. The user can advance to the next page by clicking a button that takes her to the next frame. Similarly, it is possible to navigate to the previous frame/page as well. Most of the content is placed on the stage (i.e. created by dragging an instance of a lib...
Hi, I'm working on a project that was created using flex and CS3. I only have access to CS4 and the class paths normally located at: C:/Documents and Settings/wturrin/Local Settings/Application Data/Adobe/Flash CS3/en/Configuration/Classes are nowhere to be found. I tried setting up links to the localSettings/Application/Adobe/Flash ...
//I can get the right margins by defining a rectangle and giving it the following dimensions: var rect1:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, 792,612); //When the print button is pressed the following code executes using the dimensions defined by rect1: prntCover_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, printCover); function printCover(evt...
Tearing my hair out. I created an as3 class - blah.Foo, which extends MovieClip. it is not in a package, cos Flash CS3 complained about nested packages, so it's a 'bare' class. And yes it's nested in myproj/as/blah/Foo.as And yes, it imports flash.display.MovieClip at the top of the file. I also have myproj/fla/main.fla. main.fla is se...

I'm running cs3 on a windows computer and I usually do ctrl+s to save and then do ctrl+shift+enter to debug... and I was just wondering if I can combine these 2 actions with one combination of keystrokes. Thanx! ...
This may be more of an opinion poll than a question, but here goes. I have a fairly complex Flex application that uses many different components. I want the application to be able to custom styling and/or skinning. I also want to be sure that the styling approach makes the most efficient use of system resources (memory, CPU, network),...
I have an event listener applied to an xml load and it currently traces out the values it grabs which is fine, but what I want it to do is return an array for me to use. I have the Array creation and return working from "LoadXML" (it returns the array) but I can't get this to work with an event listener. The event listener runs the "Loa...
Hi everybody, I'm fighting against a strange behaviour with my actionscript! After setting the four integer variables from the MovieTimer sprite (hour, minute, second, mili-sec) and concate them i got always double zero: 00 stop (); delete this.onEnterFrame; var str1; var str2; var mili; var second; var minut...
