Flash help tutorial problem
I'm just getting started with Flash and thought I'd work
through the tutorials included in the programs help. The tutorial
I'm stuck on is called: Creating Graphics - Applying Gradients. The
section I'm stuck on is Create a transform gradient with a shape.
I'm having problems applying the radial gradient—either
it doesn't work at all or applies to the fill but not the stoke.
This leads me to the question of what stroke and fill settings I
should have set up—after all I don't really want a stroke! Is
this oval shape drawn with object drawing turn't on or something?
I've looked at the completed .fla file and this shadow oval
shape seems to be a group. Has the person who created it grouped
the stoke and the fill or what? Which ever way the shape is
created, it doesn't say anything in the tutorial about how it
should be selected to apply the radial gradient! Surely it needs to
be selected somehow? Because when I try to apply the radial
gradient nothing happens!
Please can somebody help me figure this out—it's really
bugging me!
rename your gallery to something other than galleryinprogress.swf, say gallery.swf.
in flash create a new fla named galleryinprogress.fla with the same stage size and background color as your previous galleryinprogress.swf and attached to frame one of your new galleryinprogress.fla add:
var tf:TextField = this.createTextField("tf",1,0,0,100,40);
tf.autoSize = "center";
tf._x = Stage.width/2;
tf._y = Stage.height/2;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc",1);
mc.loadMovie("http://homepage.mac.com/nakean/.Public/swf/gallery.swf");
preloadI=setInterval(preloadF,100);
function preloadF(){
tf.text=mc.getBytesLoaded() +" bytes loaded out of "+mc.getBytesTotal()+" bytes total.";
if(mc.getBytesLoaded()>0&&mc.getBytesLoaded()>=mc.getBytesTotal()){
clearInterval(preloadI);
tf.removeTextField();
publish your new galleryinprogress.swf and upload to the same directory as your previous (but now renamed) galleryinprogress.swf.

Someone who can say how to get Adpbe flash player version 11.2.202.197 to work together with Lion on mac mini. Support from Apple can obviously not help the problem and do not care if it works

Adobe Flash Player version 11.1.102.55 is the current version for Snow Leopard and Lion.

can anyone help with problem updating iphone5s cant get anything only apple on screen sometimes screen flashes blue
Hey damien555,
Thanks for the question, I understand how frustrating this may be. It sounds like the update process may have been interrupted, and to resolve the issue, we’ll need to restore your device in recovery mode with iTunes:

Help: Flash 9 - Video problem - OS X
OS X 10.4.8
I installed Flash 9 today, since then no more Google video.
Browser crashes each time. Also with other sites that use Google
video. Tried uninstall, and install Flash 8: same problem. Cannot
get back to previous situation where everything worked fine.
Also problem with msnbc, no video, claims plugin missing.
Youtube works fine.Hi,
folder deleted, after reinstall only the two flash files in
the folder. Same problem.
Worse, now Google Finance also hangs up. Spinning wheel of
death, requires force quit. BTW, this is the same for Firefox,
Safari, and Camino.
If there is no solution, how can I get back to my previous
system. The problem started when the Charlie Rose website required
me to update flash. Before the update everything worked like a
charm. Now problems everywhere. -
Creating a simple Flash Website - Button Problems
I am totally new to this. Please be as detailed as possible.
I do not know anything.
I'm building a website using this basic model (
http://www.oman3d.com/tutorials/flash/simple_website/).
I tested the tutorial to become familiar with it.
However, I want to use custom buttons that I made in
Photoshop as links to the other pages in the website. The tutorial
I'm using only demonstrates the use of components and parameters.
How would I go about doing the same thing but with my own buttons?
I've imported them as TIFF. Is that correct? Do I need to make them
into symbols? And even then, how do I link them to the pages?
Can you please help me or direct me to an useful tutorial
that can better explain the process?
Thanks so much!
I hope I was detailed enough...let me know what info you
need.Which version of Flash/actionscript are you using? Since you
are just starting out, you should read one of Adobe's tutorials on
the matter. Either use Flash Help to find examples on how to use
Flash or go to their website. Here is a great tutorial for someone
just starting out. Make sure you read all three tutorials in "Using
Flash for the first time".

Creating a purchase order form that has a flowable layout" Help Tutorial
Regarding the "Creating a purchase order form that has a flowable layout" Help Tutorial, I can't seem to get the data to pull in for just the PO in question, is there a secret?
Ideally, it should create one form for each PO with the detail lines for each PO on the individual forms. Can we do this?
Many thanks!Hi
If the smartform purchase order is not available in your system
means you can download the form IDES and you can upload the form in ur ecc 6.0 system.we faced a similar kind of problem in our system and we did as i said.
Once you uploaded the things you can easily view the form interface and rest of the things related to smartforms.
Thanks and Regards

Help!!!
I'm having a problems getting a site to work in IE7. It works
fine in Firefox, but in IE7, not a chance.
Here's the
Link
Once in the site, go to the Gallery. Click on any of the two
thumbnails on the left. A window will open with a short blurb and a
choice of 2 or 3 links. Select the slideshow. The slideshow will
load up and start fine. Close the window and click the other
thumbnail. It won't load up (To be clear here, both the thumbnails
have an "on release" javascript in them), Nothing! Click on any of
the other links on the top... About, Contact, etc. They won't load
up either. As a matter of fact, you won't even be able to refresh
the page. This does't happen in FireFox. It works beautifully
there, just as it should.
Is there a fix for this IE7 Problem? Is it a simple
JavaScript that I need?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
KevinSeems to work here. IE7, Win XP Pro.

I have an ASP file that gives out the following output when
opened in the browser on the internet:
bride=Olga&groom=Alex&folders=2
see for yourself here :
http://www.nickphotography.com/contact/customer_system/data.asp
The code in the first frame of the flash file is:
loadVariables("data.asp","");
The variables don't load into the flash movie though.
it works fine when I make a text file containing the ASP
output and change the flash code to
loadVariables("data.txt","");
what's wrong and how do I fix this problem.
thanks in adance for the help!Mark,
Try this:
Put a dynamic text field on your stage and give it an
instance name of
textBox. Then put this code on frame one:
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("
http://www.nickphotography.com/contact/customer_system/data.asp");
loadText.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
textBox.text = this.bride+" "+this.groom+" "+this.folders;;

Ok Im ready to tear my hair out so I'd appreciate any help I
can get.
I created an animation and imported it to my main file as a
movie clip. I created buttons to start and stop the animation
(these work but I wrote the commands in actionscript). I also
created a button to go to a website. This works when I test movie
but on the published file nothing happens when I click it. I did
this one using button behaviours. Could this be a mistake I made
when publishing or is there a way to do that command in
actionscript in case 'behaviours' is the problem?
I need to embed the file (once I get it working) in an
existing html file. I tried publishing it then cut and pasting the
html into my webpage file but all I got was a blank box. Flash help
wasn't really that helpful. Ive got Frontpage if its possible to
embed it using that...
Appreciate any help anyone can give

I don't comment much, I tend to be the quiet kind of user
that just does my own thing. I am quite upset with Adobe's change
in the help feature in Flash. I understand that things change with
updates. That's a reason i get work sometimes. Someone wants to
update.
I so loved the large amount of useful code and examples
buried in the Help files in previous versions of Flash. Through
these i could riddle my why through a problem. Multiple examples of
how to use something was often the only way to figure out what I
was trying to do.
Are those days now long gone? I hope not. I am not a
programmer, but i do have some programming experience. I am a web
designer. i prefer not to live in binary, classes and the like.
Often these samples worked as idea starters, and answers to late
night prayers when the oil had been burning all too long. You know,
when your head gets fuzzy and you need to go to bed but the project
has to be done....
Well I don' t mean to be the whiner, but is there anything
that can be done about this?
I know there are some samples in there, I flipped through it
for a while, but i feel the quality of the Help menu in Flash has
dropped dramatically. The new neat features in the Help menu and
the nice skin don't measure up to the loss in content. I plan on
working with MX by my side so i can use its Help features, because
CS3 doesn't look like it will do the job.
Anyone else want to comment?
Thanks,
mr_bidinkleI found this thread through a search.
Has Flash help menu been savaged to leave only two headings??
I only have the following two main headings in my Help Menu:
Using Actionscript 2.0 Components
Actionscript 2.0 Components Language Reference
I have bought the Rich Media Project Player and List
Component and they said their help file is also installed.
I cannot see that here either.
Whats going on? Can an Adobe person answer this for
me?? -

9 problem with Chinese languageThanks for the helpful posting. I came searching here for advice because I could not get my Flash Player 9 installation to succeed using the trouble-shooting information provided on the Adobe web site, and from experience I have come to know that my best resource in trouble-shooting is to seek the help of other Mac users.
In following your instructions I discovered that "Enable Flash" was not checked in my preferences, so that was definitely part of the problem. However, I still could not get Flash Player 9 to work, so after doing a Google search I found a posting on Version Tracker (under feedback at the bottom of this page: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/11622 ) that provided the last little bit of instruction I needed to get Flash Player 9 to function properly.
Before attempting to install Flash Player 9 I had used Adobe's uninstaller to uninstall previous versions, as instructed on the Adobe website. However, AFTER repairing my disk permissions, I needed to restart the computer and run the uninstaller again. After uninstalling I restarted once more, ran the installer and, VOILA!, finally Flash Player 9 worked as it should.

Flash CS3 Install Problems!
Hello all,
I recently downloaded Flash CS3 Trial from the Adobe website.
Once downloaded I extract the files from the EXE file. Then I go
into the extracted files and select setup.exe. I give the program
permission to run in Vista (as prompted) and the Flash Setup window
displays...
The problem is the Setup window displays for a brief second
or two before dissapearing without a trace!! No error message etc.
It just dissapears...
I am running Windows Vista. Why is this happening? It is most
annoying!! I cant even install the product!!
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me!! :-)Funny enough, I got the same error when I tried to download
and install the
trial version. Best advice I can give is to contact support.

Hello,
I have Robohelp 5x and using Word 2002 and I recented updated
to CS3 (suite). For all of my flash help output I use the started
blue skin, have a generic TOC and a small glossary. Typically I
make my updates and then go to View Primary layout and the help
files will generate/regenerate and everything is fine.
Well, it's not working any more. I suspect from what I've
read here it had something to do with Flash, but I am not sure. Has
anyone else had this problem or know a work around? I'm at a loss.
Thanks,
MimiThank you for writing back.
I wasn't seeing anything after making my updates. I thought
it may have been a Flash 9 issue with security. It turns out that
it may have been a permission problem. I did not know or am not
100% sure what happens when a user needs to publish content. When I
compared the previous output files to what was being created
without administrator permission the were about 100 or so less
files compiled.
This forum is very helpful and I appreciate the help. If
anyone has a recommendation what I should read to learn more about
output files and permissions I'd gladly take them. My problem is
working now after my admin rights were added back on my local
machine. It would be nice to be able to have some back up
documentation incase I have to argue with my IT department to get
admin rights restored should it happen again.
Thanks!
Mimi
