How to add easing in Flash CS4

How can I add bounce easing to a classic tween in FlashCS4 ?

You've gotta do that in code. If you make a motion tween, you can use the motion editor to do this.

How to add link to flash file (using AS 3)?

Hi all,
I have created a Flash banner ad for our company that is to be hosted on another website. This banner ad needs to have a link added to it, within the Flash file. This link will take users straight to our website but is also for the purpose of tracking.
How do I go about adding the URL? I have searched through these forums but cannot get it to work.
I am using Flash CS4 (selected to use AS 3 when I first created the file.)
From what I have read and understood, I should create a new layer, and then add the code to the first frame on that layer?
Exactly what code should I use? I tried something as simple as 'getURL("http://www.celonova.com","_self"); ' but that is not working. Is it bcos that is for AS 2 only?
My last question is...can I set up the link so that it works for ALL frames?
Sorry about the dumb questions but I am a complete newbie when it comes to the code side of Flash:(
Thank you VERY much in advance for your help!
Christine

Okay all,
I found some great tutorials for using the "invisible button" method, and have gotten it all to work (keeping my fingers crossed)!
Using AS 3:

How to add meta tag flash file

Is there an easy way to add meta tags to a Flash file that is

No. SEs don't read Flash.

hi there,
bruce from adobe just posted a comment over at our blog (apdevblog.com) saying that someone here at the adobe forums is looking for a spellchecker that also works with textfields in flash ...
we released the second version of the Apdev Spellchecker yesterday - check it out: http://apdevblog.com/actionscript-spellchecker-for-flash-textfields-with-source-code-and-e xample
It's built on top of the Squiggly classes but can be used with every dynamic textfield in flash/actionscript.
Take a look at the example: http://apdevblog.com/examples/apdev_spellchecker/
and you can download the apdev spellchecker class here: http://apdevblog.com/examples/apdev_spellchecker/src/ApdevSpellChecker.as
maybe this is what you were looking for ..!?

Thanks in advance for your help !

Hi Kglad,
thanks for the info....
Do you know of any tutorials about this subject ?
I am new to action scripting and learned Flash by studying tutorials at Lynda.com.
I was just wondering if there was a title touching that subject, from Lynda or any other provider.
How did you learned how to use databases in conjunction with flash ?
Thanks again for your help !

How can I use LCCS with ActionScript 3 and Flash CS4?

Hi,
Using Stratus I was able to create an an application using Action Script 3 and Flash CS4. The sample code on the Adobe site was quite straight forward and easy to understand. I now want to switch over to LCCS but can't find anything any where on how to use Action Script 3 and Flash CS4 with LCCS. Do I need to know Flex to be able to use LCCS? Everything was quite simple and easy to understand with Stratus and makes complete sense. But LCCS is really confusing. Is there any sample code on how to establish a connection in Action Script 3 and then stream from a webcam to a client. There is nothing in the LCCS SDK that covers Flash and Action Script 3. Please help! I found the link below on some forum but it takes me nowhere.

Hi,
Welcome to the LCCS world.
Please refer to the SDK's sampleApps folder. There would be an app called FlashUserList. The app demonstrates how LCCS can be used with Flash CS4. Its a pretty basic app, but should help you moving.
We are trying to improve our efforts to help developers in understanding our samples. Please do let us know if we can add something that would help others.

How to Make Dreamweaver CS4/Flash CS4 Website Function on all Latest Mobile Devices

Hello!
I am trying to add code into my Dreamweaver CS4 file and/or Flash CS4 file in order to have the website I have created work across all of the latest mobile devices as well as traditional online systems. My flash file has a transparent stage, and my dreamweaver file has a full-screen background image. I have reviewed various tutorials and articles available online, and some advocate simply adding code, which does not seem to be working for me, while others suggest having a similar separate site created solely for mobile devices.

I have tried various combinations of the code listed above, but nothing seems to be working. I am not sure as to the positioning of the code, and maybe that is the problem, or maybe it is because this code in not for CS4, or not appropriate for my project. I also do not know what code should be inside the Flash file, nor what should should be inside the Dreamweaver file.
Thank you in advance for any assistance!

Hi
To add to what Gramps has said, Adobe has ceased developing its flash player for ALL mobile devices so do not use Flash for any mobile device.
Depending on the complexity of your Flash program you may be able to recreate it using Edge, but the code generated by Edge does not work in IE8 or below.
For details on Edge, see - http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/edge/

There is no simple code to add that will display the same on all mobile devices....
you do know that the iProducts (iPhone, iPad, etc) don't display Flash at all, right?
So as a start for "functioning on all latest mobile devices" you should drop any Flash content you have and move on.

I am trying to experiment with Tweens and Easing Types in ActionScript 3.0, Adobe Flash CS4. help

I am using ActionScript 3.0, Adobe Flash CS4 software
I have created Tweens for some MovieClip properties and experimented with some of the easing types.
This is what I have managed to create and works okay!
grow_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, grow);
shrink_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, shrink);
rotate_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rotate);
hide_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideClip);
show_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showClip);
fadeOut_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fadeOut);
fadeIn_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,fadeIn);
function grow(e:MouseEvent):void {
var scale1:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "scaleX", Back.easeIn, 0, 1, 3, true);
var scale2:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "scaleY", Back.easeIn, 0, 1, 3, true);
function shrink(e:MouseEvent):void {
var oneSmall:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "scaleX", Back.easeInOut, 0, -.2, 3, true);
var twoSmall: Tween = new Tween(instrument, "scaleY", Back.easeInOut, 0, -.2, 3, true);
function rotate(e:MouseEvent):void {
var spin:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "rotation", Elastic.easeOut, 0, 360, 5, true)
function hideClip(e:MouseEvent):void {
instrument.visible = false;
function showClip(e:MouseEvent):void {
instrument.visible = true;
function fadeOut(e:MouseEvent):void {
var tweenfadeOut:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "alpha", None.easeOut, 1, -.1, 3, true);
function fadeIn(e:MouseEvent):void {
var tweenfadeIn:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "alpha", None.easeIn, 0, 1, 3, true);
I am having trouble creating Tweens and add easing types for the action script below!
I keep getting error message (“Access of undefined property Sine”) for example when I type
function hideClip(e:MouseEvent):void {
var noClip:Tween = new Tween(instrument, "visible", Sine.easeOut, 0, 1, 3, true);
Can anyone help???? The original script is below
hide_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideClip);
show_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showClip);
function hideClip(e:MouseEvent):void {
instrument.visible = false;
function showClip(e:MouseEvent):void {
instrument.visible = true;

make sure you have imported the Sine class
import fl.motion.Sine;

How to Build a Preloader for Flash CS4 and Actionscript 3.0

With the wonderful help of many people on this site, I have successfully buit a nice website using Flash CS4. I am wanting to deploy the site this weekend and I'm working on the finishing touches. I would like to add a preloader so that the viewer will have everything loaded when the action starts. Can anyone suggest a good tutorial that shows how to make the simple "rotary lines" that are so popular? I've seen these and they look to be about an inch across and move like the hands of a clock. I think it may even say "Loading..." or similar. Since I'm still learning quite a bit, I did not know if Flash actually offers some "preloaded" tools for stuff like this? Or am I better off going to Lynda.com and taking a tutorial? Thanks for the help!

Dark Armor, You mentioned the book Adobe Flash CS4 Professional Classroom in a Book, which I have. I could not find anything in there. Did you mean to say Actionscript 3.0 for Adobe Flash CS4 Professional? I do have that book and it looks like there is information there. Just wanting to make sure that you meant what you said. Thanks!

How do I fix a font compatibilty issue from Mac to Windows, using Adobe Flash CS4?

Hi,
I need to edit a Flash movie that somebody else developed in Adobe Flash CS3 on a Mac. I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 on Windows (Vista). However, the font that shows up on my computer is much bigger than on the .SWF that he produced.
He used a custom font, which I had to add to my system Fonts folder. Because Adobe Flash detected the right fonts on my computer, it didn't map them to substitute fonts. I verified that Flash is indeed using the same font files that he used.
I believe the fonts are being rendered differently because I'm using Windows.
How do I fix this?

hi all - I have a similar problem with flash - basically the plugin crashes pretty much every time I am not looking at it directly (playing online games in tabs for example)
I have tried disabling the "memory-safe-away-time-out thingee" in config:about - to no avail. I have also tried disabling all other plugins (not that I actually have many - Java, VLC, quicktime, some windows stuff), have set themes to default, have made sure all plugins are latest version.
currently running the 4.0.b2 Firefox version cause of the plug in crashes in the 3.6.8 version - same problem though.
and where it gets really strange is that a friendly help person on the adobe site suggested I upgrade my firefox to version 3.8 (while I was on the 3.6.8 version) and that would fix it. which I thought was.. interesting as 3.6.8 is the latest version as Firefox upgrade check insisted.
by now i have invested at least 4 days trying to fix this issue and I gotta say... I am tempted to actually try other browsers, though firefox is my default browser since years.

How to do a simple or basic actionscript on Adobe Flash CS4? I am just having problems

I am doing my simple portfolio on Adobe Flash CS4. However when I am already looking just for the basic action scripting from the tutorial I can't determine which is the most accurate for the buttons.
Here's my sample below
the texts that were listed below are my buttons such as ABOUT, PROFILE, PRINT ADS, MAGAZINE, LOGO, PRINT, ILLUSTRATION, and DESIGN CONCEPT
I've already convert it into symbol as BUTTON and now I am ready to put a basic action script to function and transfer into another scene.
Example I want to function the ILLUSTRATION and PRINT button into Illustration and Print scene how would I do the action script about it?
Here's the example of next scenes that could be clicked from the homepage
This is the ILLUSTRATION scene
This is the PRINT scene
Please help me on how to do the action scripting by using the gotoAndPlay or anything else to function my portfolio. Thank you

Give each of your buttons an instance name via the Properties panel. As an example fr coding them, let's say you named the button "about_btn" for the scene named "about" that you want it to go to. Then to have that button make your file go to the about scene, you would add the following code into a frame of the timeline where that button is (in a separate actions layer preferably). Select the frame and in the Actions panel write...
about_btn.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop("about", 1);
If you wanted it to play instead of stop at frame 1 of the about scene, then you would use gotoAndPlay(...) instead of gotoAndStop(...). If you intended to go to a frame other than 1, then it is best to use frame labels and specify the label instead of the frame number.
Just a word of warning, if you haven't gotten too far with the design yet, you should back away from using scenes and just build all your sections into the first scene as sections of the timeline and/or movieclips. Combining scenes with navigation can be problematic... they just don't play right. Scenes are more useful for animations that do not have navigation.
When you use just the one scene, all your gotoAndStop/Play commands only need to specify the frame... as in gotoAndStop(1);
