Allow user to bookmark individual flash page

Hi there,
I would like to know how I can create a whole website in
flash but still allow the user to copy the url of a certain page
and use that as a link to jump back to that exact page again or
bookmark it as a favourite.
I've seen it done, generally the url will look something like
www.domain.com/section1&id=345
Any advice anyone could give me would be much appreciated.
many thanks,
B.

Bookmarking is *browser* functionality. Flash can't talk
directly to the browser to do it. It's a bit tricky and may involve
a number of browser-related technologies.
A bookmark-able "thing" must have a unique URL. So, if you
put your whole site inside "mywebsite.swf" found on page
"mywebsite.html", when you book mark the page, you will always get
the same thing, no matter where you have navigated within the
Flash.
You need to do 2 main things:
1. Make use of unique URLs
2. Make your Flash be able to start differently based on #1
To accomplish #1, you either need server-side scripting or
make use of "parameters" to an HTML page which can be extracted
using JavaScript. You will also have to update the URL in the
browser as you navigate within your Flash. That way, when someone
creates a bookmark, they are bookmarking the spot they are in.
Hopefully this gets you started...

  • Does Photoshop CS6 Extended allows users to crop individual frames?

    Does Photoshop CS6 Extended allows users to crop individual frames? As in just one segment of the video? If so, how is it done?

    Hi there
    The Crop tool in Photoshop functions by cropping the entire image area - however, you can use a Layer Mask to edit an indiviual video or animation frame, as shown below.
    1. Start by importing your video or animation in Photoshop, making sure to convert frames to layers (File > Import > Video Frames To Layers...). Go to your layers panel and select the frame you'd like to crop. Turn on the visibility of the layer by clicking on the small check box to the left of the layer icon - it should turn into an eye as shown below. Then, click the "Add vector mask" icon highlighted below.
    2. Next, select the Rectangular Marquee tool (or use an alternative selection method if you want a different shape) and draw a seelction around the part of your video/animation you want to keep.
    3. Go to Select > Inverse to select the inverse of the area you just selected.
    4. Grab the Paint Bucket Tool and fill the selected area with pure Black (#000000). This will effectively "crop" the layer you have selected. You can see below that the layer underneath my selected layer is now showing through where I filled the selection with black.
    The great thing about using a mask is that you can edit it or delete it altogether if need be. Note though that the area you mask will show up as transparent pixels in your Timeline panel - you can see the layer I edited on the far right of my timeline in the screenshot above.
    Please post again if you need additional help, or if what I demonstrated is not what you were trying to do.
    Cheers!

  • How can I allow users to view any Wiki Pages inside my enterprise wiki site collection, as PDF files

    We are working on an enterprise wiki site collection, and users start adding wiki pages and link them together. But a new requirement was raised by the customer, to allow users to be able to convert any wiki page to pdf file and save the pdf file to their
    local PCs. They are suggesting to add a link or an option inside the upper ribbon , named “Make as PDF”, and once clicked they can view the current wiki as a pdf file.
    Not sure what are the capabilities of SharePoint 2013 to do so ? and is there any third paryt tools that allow doing similar tasks ?
    Thanks

    If you want to save as PDF, could you not use a PDF printer, so the procedure would be to 'Print this page' and the user then selects their PDF printer and where they want to save the file.
    but in this way the user will have the page header footer, left navigation included in the pdf file. while i want to extract the body only. i so not think you apprach will work for my requirements

  • How can I create a link that allows users to convert a Wiki pages into PDF format.

    I am working on an enterprise Wiki library site collection, but I want to create a link named “Convert to PDF” , which allow users to convert the current Wiki into a pdf file. I need this link to be displayed some where in all the exsiting Wikis pages, and
    on any new wiki page. Can anyone advice if there is already such as capability within sharePoint 2013.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    For your requirement, we can add this link to the master page, then it will appear in the pages which apply this master page.
    To convert the current page to PDF, you can take consideration of using jsPDF.
    The links below with demos for your reference:

  • Allow User to Edit Individual Pages via Browser

    I am developing a site for a customer who isn't very computer

  • Call Save Dialog [Save As] is not allowing me to Bookmark in Portal

    Hi All,
    I am facing some problems trying to implement BEx bookmarking into my Portal. To explain a little further about our setup, we have a master web template which is connected to approximately 80+ queries. Within that web template, we have a button which has the CALL SAVE Dialog Save_As which should, in theory, allow users to bookmark their queries via the Portal.
    Unfortunately, this is not working and when a user attempts to bookmark a query and save it via the Portal, the following blank screen is displayed with this URL: http://PORT NUMBER/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.navigation.helperservice/html/child.html.
    If anyone could offer any insight into this issue I'd be truly grateful - THANKS!
    Bim

    Hi,
    There might be a technical Rollup
    When you restart the Application Host Helper Service on Windows Server 2008, it might help.
    Or, if not, why don't you try to take an backup of the existing queries & perform a backup. I'm sure the error can be resolved.
    Thanks,

  • Flash app that allows users to create mini animations

    Hi,
    I am fairly new to flash, and was wondering if the community could point me in the right direction for my current project.
    I am looking to build an app that allows end users to draw and save mini animations (simple predetermined shapes that move in 2D).  So far I have a written a app that allows the user to draw a single frame using simple shapes and lines, but I am having some small troubles at this stage, and have not attempted to allow the user to animate or save the drawing.
    If anyone knows of a tutorial or some other resource to put me on the right path I would be very grateful.  I can also share what I have if anyone would be willing to give me some pointers (I am going to assume that as a newbie, my code could use a lot of improvement).
    Regards,
    Robbie Vos

    Hi Andei1,
    Thanks for the input.  I figured that the save functionality would be a little difficult. 
    However, if I can get the basic app going (allowing users to create mini animations) I think I should be able to get save going with some (ok, alot) of effort.
    Regards,
    Robbie Vos

  • Firefox should allow users to maintain their zoom setting when switching to a different page, instead of going back to default every time.

    Page text appears very small on laptop while utilizing full resolution on a dell XPS laptop. Zoomed-in a notch or two it looks good. Readable without squinting. But browse to a different page, and its tiny all over again. Firefox, being the best browser on the web, should think about allowing users to maintain their zoom value when going to a different page, instead of going back to default. Just an idea... I know there's alot of laptops out there and if it's hard for me to read with good eyes, I'm sure it's hard for others.

    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
    Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965
    Or the NoSquint extension: <br />

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Recording video/audio files using Flash Meida Server through rmtp, and allow users to access the recorded files through http.

    As titled, what is the way to record video/audio files using Flash Meida Server through rmtp, and allow users to access the recorded files through http?
    What I am trying to do, is to record a user's microphone's input and save it to the server. Afterwards, I would like other users to be able to access the recorded files and mainuplating the audio data, by computeSpectrum(), to do some visualization of the audio. As I know computeSpectrum() cannot work on streaming files, so I think I need to access the recorded files using http instead of rmtp. Is that true?
    How can I redirect the http request to the files I was recorded into my applications/appName folder? Or I need to somehow moved the recorded files to the /webroot folder?
    Thanks!

    I probably have asked a stupid question.
    My recorded streams are still saved in the applications/appName/streams folder.
    And I redirect the www.mydomain.com/streams to point to the applications/appName/streams folder.
    And the rmtp recorded streams are abled to connect through http now.

  • I am having trouble viewing iStore. It appears as if its a Flash issue, as several minutes after logging in to iStore I get a non-flash page of iStore in my iTunes window. I have re-installed everything and tried opening all ports in router....any ideas?

    I am having trouble viewing iStore. It appears as if its a Flash issue, as several minutes after logging in to iStore I get a non-flash page of iStore in my iTunes window. I have re-installed everything and tried opening all ports in router, and used msconfig to bring up each service individually to see if there is an effect.Flash and iTunes have been re-installed  ...any ideas?

    I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
    And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
    And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

  • Bookmarks Panel and Page Display

    BACKGROUND:
    I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and now when I convert a Word2010 doc to PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro Create PDF. Once the file oepns in Acrobat, I then make the following changes:
    File > Properties > Initial View >Navigation Tab (Set to Bookmarks Panel and Page) Page Layer (Set to Single Page Continuous)
    Preferences are set to: Open cross-document links in same window; allow layer state to be set by user information; allow documents to hide the men bar, toolbars, and window controls.
    PDF/A View Mode is sent to Only for PDF/A documents.
    The only thing that I have done different is that I did open was Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES8.2 and tested converting a word document into a form last week. I then attempted to convert files from WORD2010 to Acrobat Pro 9 on Friday and say the problems. I am now also having problems with Adobe LiveCycle.
    Attempted Resolution: Our Help Desk uninstalled and then re-installed Acrobat Pro 9 but that has not resolved the issue. They are recommending that they wipe my profile and build it again. I am hoping to avoid that and hope someone can help me with this issue.
    System Information:
    Version 9.0.0.2008061200

    The Bookmark Panel to the left of the pdf is not displaying - I have checked everything (and double checked under preferences to ensure that under Documents > Open Settings > Restore last view settings when reopening documents is Not checked.)
    Have reinstalled Acrobat and still am having issues. The only thing I did was open AcrobatLive and converted a doc to a fillable form - I am getting error messages with that now as well.

  • Help! itunes 12 wont allow users to redownload past purchases all at once like it used to. Is there a way around this?

    Help! For some reason i-tunes 12 wont allow users to re-download past purchases all at once like it used to. Is there a way around this? It will only allow you to download what it calls "Recent Purchases" which in my case only would allow 250 items. I know i have at least 700 tracks if not substantially more possibly over 2000 tracks but I can't be sure. I don't know how to find that information, I've looked in itunes under the my account past purchases but id doesn't tell you how many total songs you have purchased or any relevant details. It only shows you small chunks of receipts by date but no total tracks purchased in an easy to view snapshot that I could find. The current support page says that if you have more then 2000 songs the "ALL SONGS" tab now listed above the left pan with all your purchased artists, will change to "Recent Purchases". IF apple changed this on purpose to stop user from downloading there entire library to cut down on bandwidth they have really upset me this time. At present the only way I can download all past purchases is by selecting each artist listed in the left pan one by one selecting the "Download ALL" button at the bottom right corner of the page at which point I have to input my apple password each time, which really slows things down. I have hundreds of artists and if this is the only way for customers to re-download there entire library this is ridiculous and really unnecessary to put customers through this kind hassle just to re-download all there past purchases when the whole idea of i-cloud is to make downloading and using your music simple, quick, and convenient on multiple devices. I know the old saying "your responsible for backing up your data" yeah I know that and I've been doing that for years when no one really should ever have had too. There is no reason a service that sells music digitally should not allow customers to be able to re download content purchased on there service regardless of the fact that people should just back up anyway as an extra precaution. Well sometimes backups fail like in my case and I have to re-download. No wonder paid subscription plans are so popular. You don't have to deal with any of these issues. I can only hope this is some kind of oversight by apple and will be fixed soon. Can anyone offer a quicker solution or any information about this issue? I would greatly appreciate any helpful assistance.
    Again this is for Windwos 8.1 x64 with Itunes 12.0.1.26

    After spending way too much time dealing with this issue myself, I discovered that you can:
    - Within "My Music", select all the songs you need to download (all w/ the cloud icon - use Shift-Click)
    - Right click and select download
    All songs will begin downloading from iCloud

  • Pop-up error on flash pages

    My OPS - Windows XP SP2
    My Browser - IE Explorer 6
    My ISP - Road Runner High Speed
    My Macromedia Flash Player Version - 8.0.24.0
    ISSUE:
    I am receiving a small popup error as certain web pages that
    use flash are loading up ... not all flash pages, but some,
    including my homepage which is "www.rr.com"
    The popup appears briefly, only as the page is being loaded,
    and it reads as follows ... "Press SPACE BAR or ENTER to activate
    and use this control"
    After a second or two the page is fully loaded and the popup
    quickly disappears, however there is a broken-lined box which
    surrounds the flash section of the page and if I enter that section
    {flash} with my cursor I receive a similar message which reads ....
    "Click to activate and use this control"
    Only if I left click my mouse or hit SPACE or ENTER on my
    keyboard can I access the flash sections of said page ... so for
    example, if I were attepmting to access a flash link on said page I
    would need to left click twice, once to "activate and use the
    control" and one to access the link ... or I could hit my SPACE BAR
    or ENTER prior to clicking the flash link and then it will be
    activate, thus only one left click on the link will suffice
    I have also encounted this same popup at the mcafee homepage
    ... us.mcafee.com ... when I push my cursor into a flash section of
    the page I receive the same small popup, "Click to activate and use
    this control"
    I have been a flash user for quite some time, on this very
    same PC, same OPS, same Browser, same ISP, and I've even had the
    updated version of flash player for at least a month {8.0.24.0},
    yet this trouble has appeared out of the blue only two days ago and
    I cannot fix it
    I have tried a number of fixes ... I have even used the
    uninstall utility for flash player as provided by your website, and
    uninstalled my browser, then reinstalled both to no avail, same
    issue continues to occur on certain flash pages {but not all},
    including my homepage
    PLEASE HELP
    Thanks You,
    Dobermite

    Here's the fix!!
    Change your flash objects(embed) to external files that use
    javascript to write the tag. Like so
    var oeTags = '<object classid="clsid
    27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
    width="812" height="565" >'
    + '<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain"
    />'
    + '<param name="movie" value="dyna_main.swf"
    /><param name="quality" value="high" /><embed
    src="dyna_main.swf" quality="high" width="812" height="565"
    allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    pluginspage="
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    />'
    + '</object>';
    document.write(oeTags);
    name the page whatever.js
    on you htm page include it with a script tag, like so
    <script src="/whatever.js"></script>
    It works

  • Upgraded to Firefox 4.0 Can see and use all old bookmarks folders and bookmarks, but cannot see any of the old folders when I attempt to bookmark a new page- only see Bookmarks toolbar & Menu and unsorted bookmarks

    Had several bookmarks folders under old Firefox. After upgrade to 4.0 all of these still work via bookmarks menu. Problem is, when I attempt to bookmark a new page and place it in one of my existing bookmarks folders with 4.0, the only folders that Firefox can see are the bookmarks toolbar, bookmarks menu, and unsorted bookmarks. How do I get Firefox to see the old folders so that I can continue to put bokmarked pages in them??

    In the "Edit this Bookmark" window, use the 2nd drop-down button, that is to the right of the "Folder", to open a larger window that will allow more folder to appear. See the sloppy red arrow on the screenshot below.
