Can't loop a flash presentation

How can I make the looping work in flash player? The option
under the control menu is greyed out. Tried to uninstall and
reinstall but still doesn't work.

You'll need to Compress or Archive the file before attempting to FTP. FTP files are actually "folders" with all the info needed to recreate the presentation. Because where you're FTP-ing to probably won't understand how this file system works, it's best to Right-Click on the .key file then choose "Compress" or "Archive" and send that .zip file that gets created.

Anyone familiar with Flash Presentations?

Hi.
I continue to have problems playing movieclips on certain
slides of a Flash Presentation.
If anyone has *reasonable* experience with Flash
presentations please let me know. You might be familiar with the
problem, or have suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
K

Well, that would certainly be one approach, but then you
lose out on the
benefit of nested movie clips, not the least of which is
avoidance of
timeline sprawl. I played a bit more with the Slide API this
morning. I
can see what's going on. Under the hood, each slide is a
movie clip, and
they all exist at once, so if you have nested animation on
any slide ...
they all start playing even on slide 1, and might in fact
have played
through by the time you hit slide 5.
> 2. Do you know of a way to have an animation stop on the
last

Here's what I came up with. Let's assume you have two
buttons on the
root presentation slide. By default, Flash gives you a root
slide named
"presentation" and a child slide named "slide1". In my
experiment, I added
a Next and Previous button to "presentation" and wired them
up like this:
btnNext.onRelease = function():Void {
this._parent.currentSlide.gotoNextSlide();
btnPrev.onRelease = function():Void {
this._parent.currentSlide.gotoPreviousSlide();
This uses the button event handling approach I prefer,
personally, over
on() and onClipEvent() -- I'm not sure which approach you're
using. In this
approach, the code codes into a keyframe, typically a
dedicated scripts
layer, rather than attached to the object itself. The buttons
have the
instance names btnNext and btnPrev. A function is assigned to
the
Button.onRelease event of each button instance, and the
functions call
either Slide.gotoNextSlide() or Slide.gotoPreviousSlide() as
appropriate.
In order to target the relevant Slide instance, I use the
Slide.currentSlide
property, which I reference via the expression this._parent.
Let me explain that, real quick. In the above code, the word
"this"
refers to the corresponding button instance itself -- in
btnNext's onRelease
handler, "this" refers to btnNext. btnNext -- the button
symbol -- is, by
nature, an instance of the Button class. Consulting the
Button class in the
ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference, I see that all button
instances have a
Button._parent property, which points to the object that
contains the
button. Cool. Therefore, from a button's point of view,
this._parent
refers to the timeline that contains the button. Normally,
such a reference
points to a MovieClip instance (which is what timelines are;
they're movie
clips). That's the case here, too, but thanks to the way
object-oriented
programming works, and because we're inside a Slide
presentation, the parent
movie clip of this button is also an instance of the Slide
class.
Look up "Slide class" in the Components Language Reference,
and you'll
see the full pedigree. Any instance of Slide has the
following family tree:
MovieClip > UIObject > UIComponent > View >
Loader > Screen > Slide. Slides
*are* movie clips, but they're more than that. They're also
UIObjects,
which are objects that contain all the functionality of movie
clips, and
then some. They're also UIComponents, which addes even more
functionality,
and so on ... all the way through Slide. One of the
properties of the Slide
class is Slide.currentSlide. Bingo!
So ... this._parent (in this context) refers to a Slide
instance, which
means this._parent.currentSlide refers to the currently
showing slide, which
is obviously also a Slide instance. For that reason, we can
still invoke
Slide class methods on the reference, which is why something
like
this._parent.currentSlide.gotoNextSlide() works.
Forgive me, by the way, if you already understand all of
this. Forum
replies are searchable, and who knows ... in the future, the
explanation has
the potential to help someone else, too. :)
Okay, so now the issue is, we want each current slide to run
through any
nested movie clips it may have, regardless of their instance
names, and tell
each movie clip to start again from frame 1 of its own
timeline. Amend the
above code to look like this:
import mx.screens.Slide;
btnNext.onRelease = function():Void {
this._parent.currentSlide.gotoNextSlide();
var slide:Slide = this._parent.currentSlide;
for (var prop:String in slide) {
if (typeof(slide[prop] == "movieclip")) {
slide[prop].gotoAndPlay(1);
btnPrev.onRelease = function():Void {
this._parent.currentSlide.gotoPreviousSlide();
var slide:Slide = this._parent.currentSlide;
for (var prop:String in slide) {
if (typeof(slide[prop] == "movieclip")) {
slide[prop].gotoAndPlay(1);
The import statement allows us to reference Slide as a
datatype, which
happens just below the line in each event handler that was
already there.
To save a few keystrokes (basically, to make the code easier
to read), we're
creating a temporary variable, slide, and setting it to the
same
this._parent.currentSlide expression we already used. Once
gotoNextSlide()
or gotoPreviousSlide() is called, the value of
this._parent.currentSlide
changes, because now a *new* slide is the current slide. It's
the new slide
we're interested in. Using the variable slide as a kind of
shorthand, we
use a for..in loop to run through all the properties of the
current slide.
If the datatype of a given propery is a movie clip, we tell
it to go to
frame 1 of its own timeline and start playing.
What I've spelled out may or may not fit, exactly, with your
current
circumstance, but that's why I spent a bit of time explaining
the mechanics
of it. I hope that steers you in a useful direction. :)

A couple things...
Generally speaking an "autoplay" video will cost you visitors, especially one that takes a long time to load then just "kicks in".
Flash video is definitely not the best route online since iPads, iPhones, Android and others are not capable of running flash of any variety.
I stopped using Flash a while back in favor of HTML5 video, but IIRC, to loop a flash file you can add a loop parameter like...
<param name="loop" value="true">

Can't get latest Flash Player in IE8 under XP SP3, DEP blocks it

I'm trying to install the latest Flash Player. I think it started with a popup.
I'm running Windows XP Home, SP3.
When I go to Get Flash Player, IE 8.0.6001.18702 gets hung up, apparently due to Data Execution Prevention.
I've downloaded and run the Flash Uninstaller.
I uninstalled and re-installed IE8.
(Rebooting at each step.)
When I try to Get Flash Player, I get hung up, or looped back and IE stops after two tries.
I've disabled Spybot and Avast, the two virus protections I'm running.
I was able to install the latest Flash Player on Chrome and use it.
Now I've got no Flash Player under IE; when I try to go to a page that uses Flash (eg Bananagrams on Facebook) I get the message that this page needs Flash, and I get directed to Adobe, and can't get it.
How can I get any Flash Player for IE8?

Thank you.
Not sure what I did, but a lot of un-installing, turning off Data Execution Prevention, and an install of an old version (Flash Player 9) from http://www.oldversion.com/Macromedia-Flash-Player.html and I seem to be back in business.

Preloader for flash presentations?

Hi all,
I need (badly) to add a preloader to a flash presentation.
But googling around I didn't found a solution to this.
I can't believe that you can't do this in an easy way.
I can't re-create the slide presentation from scratch using the flash timeline (it would take ages).
Is there a solution to this?
TIA

Student needing URGENT help with flash presentation...

I am working on a flash presentation with galleries buttons ...basically the full lot. The presentation brief is for a Kiosk - computer in a museum, which when its not being used will go onto a screensaver.
So my question is ...after ive done the screensaver, how to i actually get it into my main presentation? I've looked ALL over the internet for tutorials and found nothing. Any help that anyone can give will be great -
MY HAND IN ON FRIDAY .......
Thanks xDeex

presumably there will be some user input (like a screen touch) that will trigger your presentation's start. you will create a listener for that input and when detected stop/remove your screensaver and start/add your presentation.
typically you would use a timer of some sort to detect a lack of user activity for some minimum duration that would trigger your presentation to stop and the screensaver to be re-started.

Is it possible to loop a Keynote presentation on an external display while working in another program (say numbers) on my laptop screen?

I have a 2012 MacBook Air.
What I would like to be able to do is plug into an external display and project a looping Keynote presentation on the external display. The problem is when I play the Keynote presentation, my laptop screen goes black. Is it possible to play/loop a Keynote presentation on an external display while working in a different program (Pages, Numbers, etc) on my laptop screen?

Looping a flash movie

I have been unable to find the correct property to test on a
flash video to see if it is running or not.
for an avi, i check the movierate, if it is not equal to 1,
the video has stopped playing.
for a wmv, i get its duration and loop for that length of
time.
is there a similar property or technique for a flash video?
here is the code for the behavior on the avi member that i am
referring to:
property s
on beginSprite me
s = sprite(me.spriteNum)
end
on exitFrame me
if s.movieRate = 1 then go to the frame
end

Working with Flash in Director is somewhat undocumented.
There is a full dictionary and contextual listing of Lingo in both
the Script window and the Message window. The Message window is
very handy for testing code before you commit to a behavior. In
MX2004 when working with Flash 8, you can usually reach any Flash
function, method or property by using Actionscript after the
reference to the Flash sprite in Lingo. For instance you can find
the current frame of a Flash .swf by using:
sprite(X)._currentFrame
If you need to reach a movieClip in the .swf then just
include the clip's instance name in the path:
sprite(X).clipName._currentFrame
for example.
Take a look at the read me that comes with the Director 10.1
update for some other insights.

Problems using Flash Presentation / Slide with IE

I have created a slideshow using the Flash presentation /
slide component. All images are the same size. When the movie loads
in Firefox, the slide show works fine. However in IE, the first
image is loaded off center. The top left corner of the image is
placed in the center of the screen. All subsequent images load
fine. This is an intermittent problem as it does not happen all the
time.
Has anyone seen this problem and know of a solution.
Thanks in advance.

Is this Virtual Credit Card Number software a website or a stand alone application? If stand alone, then I would recommend installing the Active X (Internet Explorer) version that you can download here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions

Can't interact with any open windows, can't interact with flash content

I've already tried reinstalling, resetting and deleting my profile, nothing's changed.
I can't close any Firefox window by pressing "x", or by pressing Alt+F4, I can only close it through the task manager or task bar. Minimising or going into windowed mode is also impossible.
If a new window opens itself (e.g. A download) I can't interact with it at all - It's visible on top of the main window, but nothing I do affects it.
I also can't interact with flash content (like pausing a youtube video)
There is absolutely no feedback when I try. The icon doesn't change.
I recently reset firefox, there are no add-ons, themes etc. installed, the problem persists.
I am running Windows 7 64bit, everything else (including other browsers) appears to be working fine and a virus scan (Avast! free version) turned up nothing.
I'd really appreciate any help!

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Flash Presentation

Hi there,
I am trying to create a flash presentation based on the Advanced Flash Presentation template included in CS5.
In the instructions, it says to modify the header or footer, you must unlock the background layer and edit the content.
I must be missing something because I can't find anywhere that I can edit the footer or header. The background layer is unlocked, but when I view the various slides, the header and footer do not appear to be editable.
What am I missing here?
Thanks!!

Disregard!
I figured it out.
Thanks!

INSANELY annoying CS4 timeline bug in Flash Presentation format

I've been using the Flash "presentation" format for three versions now, for doing very slide-like but animated training modules. Suddenly in CS4, there's a bug in the timeline where, no matter if the layer is locked or unlocked, frame 10 or 1000, an old file or a brand new CS4 file, the timeline scrubber JUMPS instantly back to frame 0 when you click any frame.
Can you imagine how frustrating it is to be working on a long animation, and you can't even navigate your timeline?? Please tell me there's some fix for this, I couldn't find one.
Screengrab attached. thanks

Hi Ned,
Thank you for verifying this and the suggestion...
The issue with adding the "blank frames" is the flash player slows to about 4 times slower to render out the new frame.
I have decided to place the code directly on the buttons, because I have found that sometimes a button's name will change as well and call on the wrong function....So this is very weird that I can dynamically change a buttons name hardcoded in! I cannot take the risk of the button firing off the wrong function as this could seriously injure someone. This program controls some big machinery.
The issue seems to stem pretty deep into the flash engine and effects all "Objects".
For example:
1. On Frame 1 name all of the objects
2. On Frame 2 rename all of the objects
3.On Frame 3 do not name the objects
On frame 1 gotoAndStop(3)
all of the buttons are named from frame 2 !!!!
So even though I have skipped frame 2 the unnamed objects pick up frame 2's names and label the unnamed objects.
So I would think the player would skip over frame 2...like a hard drive would indexing....but rather the flash player acts like a tape recorder having to seek to a position in the timeline.

Adding Polls to Flash Presentations

One of my developers created a Flash presentation using an
online polling system. They have a poll.swf file that contains the
widget and information for the poll, which will be added throughout
the presentation. The polls were done in Flash as well and now they
aren’t mixing well. When called using the loadMovie feature
of Flash the poll.swf does not appear in the main Flash
presentation; however, it does show up in the browser.
Any ideas as to how to get this to work.

Thank you for your reply.
