Adding bitmap behide a movieclip layer

Dear all,
I have an movieclip on stage, and its' instance name is called "mc_mask". In my actionscript, I will create a bitmap that will be added to stage with addChild(). How do I add the bitmap behide the mc_mask?
Thank you for your time!

Hi, thanks for both of your replies.
I'm having this error when I put this line in, do you know what is wrong with it?
RangeError: Error #2006: The supplied index is out of bounds.
imageArea.addChildAt(imageLoader, getChildIndex(mc_mask));
*imageLoader is my loader() to load my pictures...
Thanks!

Adding bitmap/graphic/movieclip to textfield

Using just the basic textfield I know that I can add an image to it using the <img src=' '> tag. Which links to an image that is not part of my published swf.
Is there a way to specify the source as a bitmap, graphic, or movieclip instance that is set to export for actionscript?

Ah. It doesn't seem to work for an exported Bitmap, but it does for an exported Sprite or MovieClip. Set the library item to export as myPicture and then use:
myTextField.htmlText=" <img src='myPicture' />"
Oddly it seems to need a space or some other character in there or else it won't work...hmmmm

Adding directional blur to adjustment layer/nested sequence

When adding a directional blur to adjustment layer or a nested sequence in MPE hardware mode the sides get dark (alpha channel shows).
When turning MPE off the issue is gone.
Already submitted a bugreport but found out its MPE hardware.
Seen this issue in a previous version of Premiere. Think it was fixed then, but now its back.
MPE on:
MPE off: this is how it should be.
Can someone test this, and see it its reproducable.

This is how it looks for me when I take a extension with a alpha channel over a simple BG and turn Cuda on then turn Cuda off.
The image above is with GPU acceleration turned on.
This image below this sentence is with software on.
In a way it appears simliar to your findings since when my GPU accleration is turned on you can see a white boarder creeping up from the bottom and top but with it off you don't see it.
However when I turn the blur up higher and try it again I get these results.
GPU On in the image directly below.
GPU off in the image below this sentence.
I'm using the exact same blur settings in both images... In the top image you can see that white is taking over the picture.
This has GPU on in the image below this sentence.
This is Software only on in the pic below this sentence.
Not really sure if this confirms anything for you or not though. Just figured I'd post it cause the issue seemed intresting to me. Anyways though here were my findings.

Change Bitmap code to MovieClip code?

Hi
I'm working on an app for iOS where I want to load content dynamically from the library that contains text and graphics inside different MovieClip's.
However, I have a problem, the code I have is for bitmap!
How can I change it so it works for MovieClip instead?
I want to use the MovieClip instead of bitmap?
Also want to use the MovieClip class instead of Sprite class?
Please help me
Best Regards
Mikael (No. pro in AS3)
This is the code:
//var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
//addChild(mc);
var sp:Sprite = new Sprite ();
addChild(sp);
for (var i:int=1; i<6; i++)
var ref:Class = getDefinitionByName("p"+i) as Class;
var bm:Bitmap = new Bitmap(new ref());
sp.addChild(bm);
bm.x = 768 * (i - 1);
var ind:int = 0;
var currX:Number = 0;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
sp.addEventListener(TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_SWIPE, onSwipe);
function onSwipe(e:TransformGestureEvent):void
if (e.offsetX == 1 && ind > 0)
ind--;
if (e.offsetX == -1 && ind < 4)
ind++;
function loop(e:Event):void
currX += (ind*768 - currX) * 0.120;
sp.scrollRect = new Rectangle(currX,0,768,1024);

//var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
//addChild(mc);
var sp:Sprite = new Sprite ();
addChild(sp);
for (var i:int=1; i<6; i++)
var ref:Class = getDefinitionByName("p"+i) as Class;
var mc:MovieClip = MovieClip(new ref());
sp.addChild(mc);
mc.x = 768 * (i - 1);
var ind:int = 0;
var currX:Number = 0;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
sp.addEventListener(TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_SWIPE, onSwipe);
function onSwipe(e:TransformGestureEvent):void
if (e.offsetX == 1 && ind > 0)
ind--;
if (e.offsetX == -1 && ind < 4)
ind++;
function loop(e:Event):void
currX += (ind*768 - currX) * 0.120;
sp.scrollRect = new Rectangle(currX,0,768,1024);

Movieclip/Layer Naming Suggestion

Because you can only animate one movieclip per layer on the
timeline. Can we currently or can you (Adobe), make it possible
that in the future, when you create a symbol from a
fill/line/imported image for the first time on a original-unchanged
Layer name (ex. Layer 1, Layer 2, Layer 36) That the Layer name
changes to the name of the movieclip?
It would help in my animation productions in finding
movieclip parts on the timeline.
thanks ahead,

This idea makes pretty good sense for the workflow you've
described, but
it wouldn't always be useful. You might have a single layer
filled with
navigation buttons (a dozen symbols), for example, so you
might want to call
that layer "navigation," even though it contains a dozen
differently-named
symbols. But I do agree, for what you've described, it could
be helpful.
What you're after can be done with something called JSFL,
which is a
programming language (much like JavaScript) that lets you
automate the
authoring tool. Granted, to use it, you have to be
comfortable with
programming, but it's certainly an avenue. And even if this
isn't something
you might develop yourself, you might find a 3rd party
extension already
built.

Adding keyframes to the opacity layer?

I want to add keyframes to the opacity layer. I double click on the image in the Viewer, go to the frame I want, and use Control + K to add a keyframe, though it is not being added to the opacity layer, just the other layers. How do I add it there?
Thanks.

Opacity Keyframes don't work that way Kat ... but you can add them in the Motion tab > Opacity section if you want (you can pull the Motion tab off into a separate window to make that easier) or you could switch the Playhead Sync mode to Open (or Gang) so that when you go to the frame you want in the Viewer then the playhead will keep sync in the timeline so that you can add the needed opacity keyframe there.

Adding bitmap images to UDI custom page

Hi All,
I have a basic issue regarding bitmap images and UDI custom screens. The issue is that I cannot get any images to display on my page; they appear as "Image not Found" in the preview window. I am putting my images in the same folder
that the wizard is in, so under the source property I have "Computer.bmp". I have also tried other image types to no avail. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you.

did you update the changes to the package to your distribution points ? did you look at what the SMSTS.log file says about the problem ? (enable command prompt support in your boot image, distribute it to your dps, deploy, press F8 when you want to debug,
and search for the smsts.log file with dir smsts*.log /s

Adding Calculation Column in Physical layer

Hi All,
I have oppty fact table and product dimension table.
I have to create calculation columns
credit revenue = ( sum( opptyfact. Revenue where product. productgroup = “credit”))
Debit revenue = (sum( opptyfact. Revenue where product. productgroup = “debit”))
Brokarage Revenue = (sum( opptyfact. Revenue where product. productgroup = “Brokarage”))
How can create this calculation column in meta physical layer ( i don't want create in BMM due to some reasons) using fact and dimension table.
I am creating one phisical table and in Genaral tab i select Table Type as Select.
i am thinking to write Case statment but i could not gey any idea how can i implement.
could you please help me is it correct approch to write CASE statement ? is there any other way ?
Please help me
Thank you for your time

Hi user10441472,
You can use Madan's suggestion. Using it would imply that you change your physical table type to a SELECT. And the you need to emulate the code that he wrote. That is how you get logic implemented in your physical layer from the RPD side of things. Alternatively, you could create a database view to accomplish the business logic (case statements) and reference the view in the RPD physical layer instead of the source table.
That being said, I would highly recommend against that kind of thing. It makes for a bit more confusing RPD.
The natural place to put that is in the BMM layer. You mentioned you did not want to do that for several reasons. Could you list those reasons here?
Best regards,
-Joe

Adding Cuts to an Adjustment Layer

I am relatively new to Premiere, having been an Avid editor for the last 20+ years. I need to add cuts to an adjustment layer that correspond to the layer below. Is there an easy way to do this? On the Avid, it is relatively simple, so I was hoping there was an equally simple way in Premiere.

jstrawn wrote:
Edit: After reading yor second reply it looks like you want a way to automate that process because you have one long adjustment layer with many edits beneath. Right? Let me look into that.
I'm at a loss for how to do that in the app at this time so you'll probably need to look deeper into that possible xml solution. Let us know what you find as it will be a good thing to know more about.
Perhaps it may be helpful to note that in the NEXT version of PrPro (after 7.2.n) you will be able to apply 'Master Clip Effects' at the source level so perhaps that will help your workflow there. If your workflow is that you have many source instances of relatively few clips, you will be able to apply the effect(s) one time per clip and then have that ripple out to all trimmed instances of the same clip in the timeline. I know that's not exactly what you want and it's not even available yet anyways, but thought you'd want to know.

Adding Audio from a Premiere Layer into AE for music video

Hello All, My situation is this.
I'm doing a Dance remix Music video. The original song was a ballad. The footage used for the Dance Mix consists of both the ballad clips sped up (ballad music was at 61 beats per minute) and footage shot to the dance track (127 BPM) all of which is Green screen.
The way that I approached it was to put the .wav song on one track in Pre Pro and then I synced up the rough mix edit clips to the main music track, time stretching the Ballad clips, making the mouth movements match and body movements move in rhythm. After I got all my rough edits done I discarded their audio tracks as I thought that I would not need them further, and it was too many tracks to look at (Pre Pre could use a Shy switch). So I ended up with one Audio track and 12 Video tracks, each track containing one pass of the filming.
Then I selected each rough edited clip and used "Replace with an AE composition". In AE I then did my green screen keying. One Scene I created was a composited club scene in AE where the artist is on a stage and there are flashing lights behind her using several instances of CC Light Sweep on a Solid Layer. When I Dymically Linked back to Premiere the light sweeps were not in rhythm with the music as I had no audio to listen to in AE.
Its a lot of render time tweaking in AE and then going to Pr Pro and having to wait for more rendering to see the results.
My Question is how would I go about putting the audio track into the AE Linked comp. The song is over 5 minutes and most of the clips are a few frames to a couple of seconds long.
I think my approach was wrong in the first place and that I should have made an AE project the length of the song and done all my editing and compositing in that one Comp instead of putting things in Pr Pro first, which now makes sense, since I don't see any benefit of being in Pre Pro at this time. And I don't see any way of including part of the audio track when making the AE Linked comp.
Thanks

I don't really get the problem, I must admit. If the final audio exists and the clips have been mangled correctly in Premiere, the timing should match in any case. Why would you even need the clip's source audio? The way to work in AE is to simply create an audio preview and place markers on important cues by hitting the multiply key on the numpad while the sound plays... Everything else shouldn't matter.

Adding vector mask as guide layer?

I have a template that uses a vector mask as one of the layers to line up images. What I need to do is have the vector mask serve as a guide layer so when I go to export it does not appear on export. Is this possible?

No its not. You can Action or script a deleting of your "Guide" layer before you export or Save the file. Probably your best option

Adding bitmap images that behave like a button or adding buttons that support images?

I am a new to Flash Builder and making some progress, but find I am easily stuck. I want to add graphics to my application that (1) detect when they have received a click event, (2) change graphics when mouse off, mouse over and clicked.
I thought that I could add graphics to a button to accomplish this, but cannot figure out how. Perhaps there is another, better way to do this using an image object. Any help is greatly appreciated.

is it as simple as copy the button from it's own library then
paste it into the shared library - then do the linkage steps?

Adding points to Curves Adjustment Layer in PsCS6 broken?

In CS3, CS4 and CS5 I was able to:
(a) add a point (corresponding to the position of the Eyedropper Tool on the image) to the RGB composite curve by Control + Clicking; and
(b) add a point (whilst focused on the RGB composite curve) to each of the Red, Green and Blue channel curves by Control + Shift + Clicking.
Neither approach seems to work in my CS6 (PsCs6 x64 latest update, on Win 7x64).
Is some kind soul able to tell me the correct key combination to achieve the desired result, or is there truly a problem with CS6 ?
Message was edited by: Andrew_Hart

It should be documented here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/curves-adjustment.html
The gist of the above is the on image adjustment tool (targeted adjustment tool) needs to be enabled
(the hand symbol with arrows in the properties panel)
then you just click on the image (no modifier key) to add a point to the composite curve and Ctrl+Shift to add points to the red, green and blue channels.

Flash CC - Rotation on movieclip containing bitmap causes dramatical framerate drop

I have a 850x850 bitmap inside a movieclip which must constantly rotate like a big wheel. When compiling for iOS the framerate drops from 24 to 8.
Is there a way to increase performance without using cacheAsBitmapMatrix and without rotating the bitmap inside the movieclip but the whole movieclip itself?

@Amy: Clever trick to solve the file size vs. performance problem. But I doubt it will get you far on a mobile platform with a 850x850 texture.
Anyway at this point its not much not use to advise further without the big picture.
If you`re serious about making a commercial game with Flash/AIR for iOSyou won`t be able to avoid stage3D
