My swf is occasionally crashing the browser (or just crashing the plugin as chrome tells me). How do I diagnose the bug? I am developing for flash player 9 using flex. Things I have tried: Turned on log files so I can see trace("...") output. However, my log files, and my swf, are ending at inconsistent termination points. Insta...
What is this SWX data format that I keep hearing about? The Wikipedia article says: "Data is stored as SWF bytecode, that is interpreted by Adobe Flash Player."

Like you can do from within the Flash IDE, just place a script on the required frame using the Timeline panel, and the script gets compiled to that frame of the Flash movie SWF.

So there is a blank vertical column on the right size of the object. (It does this if I set fixed height also) If I set the width in the object tag to 810, then they match up, but thats...
So, I have an application where I'll be loading any number of swfs into a SWFLoader and removing them at runtime. The issue is - they are all timeline based movies authored in Flash CS3. I have very little control over what is in the movie other than the authors are not able to program any interactivity (i.e. no event listeners) but I w...
I'm about to start building a site entirely in flash (per the client's request), using AS3, and was wondering about best practices for doing so in terms of application architecture. The site isn't too large--think homepage, persistent nav, 8 subsections or so, each with their own content but similar design between subsections. In the pas...

Does the play() function in Flash: move the playhead of the MovieClip to the next frame -- as soon as play() is called change the MovieClip's state to "playing" -- actually move MovieClip to next frame, when movie moves to next frame ...

Hello world application that uses Flex, compiled with optimize=true has size 178K. How to reduce application size? We do not like to use RSL, we don't like to avoid Flex. Largest part of resulting SWF is unused bytecode. Are there any tools to optimize bytecode — drop unused methods, classes, give methods shorter names and so on? I kn...
