Converting flash document (FLA) to Flex project

Hi, I am trying to convert flash document to flex project.
I initially had the .swf file. Then I created flash document(.fla) from .swf file. Now I need to convert to flex project so that I can modify and add new functionality. Please let me know if there are conversion tools available or is this purely a manual effort.

You should take your question over to the Dreamweaver forum if it asking how to work with HTML5. HTML5 by itself cannot reproduce Flash designs... the burden is moreso on javascript and CSS to make that happen.

Convert Flash 8 AS 2.0 project to Flash 9 AS 3.0

I have a animated menu created using Flash 8 AS 2.0. Is there
anyway I could convert that project to Flash 9 AS 3.0 project. I
don't care about the AS codes. I could convert them by hand. But I
would like to import all the designs to Flash 9 AS 3.0 paoject. Is
it possible? If so how to do it? I could import it to Flash 9 AS
2.0 but I want to use the AS 3.0 features in that project. Any help
is appriciated. Thanks.

open your fla in flash cs3 and change the publish settings to
as3. then change your code and whatever else you want to
change.

Combining two Flash Document (.fla)...

I am having extreme difficulties. How do you combine the layers from two separate files. So that they play one after the other? I've looked at guides and it doesn't work at all. It gets all choppy... (I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS5, if that makes any difference to you). Thank you.

I sort of answered my own question then created a new problem. I copied and pasted the layers into the other project. This worked fine, except that it changed some of my symbols. I thought 2 different objects could have the same name as long as the were in separate folders in the library.

Create library (swc) in Flash Builder 4 / Flex Project (not in a Library Project)

I want to create a swc file to use it in an other project. I can't use the Flash 4 Library Project to do this, because in a Library Project I
haven't the possibility to use data/services, which I need for my library. After click on "data / services" I get the message "This view is only for Flex-Projects available".
Has anyone a solution for my problem?
Thanks for your help.

Connect to PHP in FB4 is used when you have a PHP Class and you want to use that in FB, for example Employee.php and it has a Employee class and various methods in that like create, update, get, delete.
However, if you have exposed your functionality in PHP as a HTTP URL (i.e. it is not a class), then you should be using HTTPService from the data menu.
So if your file is login.php and is accessible as a URL, then using the HTTPService and enter the URL.
Does this help?

Import fla file in Flex Project

I've just found this nice effect in flash.
Would it possible to import it in a Flex project?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings!

I got these files also. But how to use Flash's fl.transitions. package with Flex.
Flash and Flex are doing transitions very differently.
In Flex, for example,
Define a transition effect: <mx:WipeLeft id="wl"/>
Use it: <mx:Canvas id="home" ... showEffect="wl">
Flash uses TransitionManager:
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var myTM:TransitionManager = new TransitionManager(my_mc);
myTM.startTransition({type:Wipe, direction:Transition.OUT, duration:3, easing:Strong.easeOut, startPoint:1});
How to define the MovieClip - "my_mc"? Both Flex and Flash have flash.dispaly.MoiveClip. Are they the same?

(How can we) Import Flash Professional .FLA file format?

How can we import a Flash Professional .fla file format into Flash Catalyst? It would appear that we can't...at least not yet! I have added this as a feature request within the adobe labs site for Catalyst. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the
idea.
Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects.
Now that we are looking to migrate to FlashBuilder 4, and start to use Spark components, we are trying to find a workflow that allows us to use Adobe tools and to reuse our existing vector artwork. Since we have such a large number of assets, we are exploring various approaches, including the use of JSFL. So far we haven't found a good way to migrate from Flash-built skins for Flex 3 to Catalyst-built skins for FlashBuilder 4.

Hi Ajay,
See attached V 7.0 example...
Hope it helps,
Nick

Converting Flash to Chinese and Japanese

I'm being asked by a client if their Flash-based elements
containing English text can be converted to Chinese and Japanese
for alternate versions of their site. Is this possible? If so, how
do I go about doing it? Is it a simple copy and paste, or do I have
to configure Flash or my system in some way?
P.S. - I'm using a MacbookPro with Intel Core 2 Duo processor
and Flash CS3.
Thanks in advance.

You probably just downloaded the Flash browser plugin -it does not show up in your Applications folder.
[MPEG Streamclip|http://www.squared5.com] can open and convert Flash to .mov.
If you export a H264 of your finished project from FCP, changing the file extension to .fla apparently works, although I have never tried it.
The perfect solution is to buy a copy of Flash from Adobe. But their are plenty of other solutions such as [this one|http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/36217] that are easier on your finances.

Editing flash document

I am learning flash 8 by my self and I am stucked.
I bought flash template that come with psd and flash format
files. I can update only index file and can not get to the reste of
the pages. why the template come with the psd file (which I can
edit very well in photoshop but not in flash)
How do I get to the other pages when I open the document in
flash?

Probably a good question for the company that provides the
template for how it works and why the various files are provided.
As far as Flash is concerned, using external loaded JPEG, GIF
and PNG files from the Flash movie is fully supported in Flash 8
and JPEG for most versions back. Embedded images can be loaded from
a wider variety of formats including PSD but not necessarily the
current version.
So the question needs to be more focused as to what you need
to do with the psds. Load them dynamically at run time. If so they
need to be converted to jpeg or gif or png. In this case you want
to learn about the Flash MovieClip.loadMovie method.
Or are they embedded, then import to the Flash movie and
learn Flash to use them.
Finally the index file you are probably talking about is an
HTML file. To change the template you need the FLA file (Flash
Document File) and Flash IDE to make changes. A Flash template
usually implies you are getting the FLA file however it is possible
to deliver only the Swf (Flash Movie) and have you provide the
inputs from an external file like a XML file to feed it and
configure it.

Problems with Library objects for a Flash document

Hello,
I have a question about a library one would create inside a
Flash document. I have a bunch of pieces of graphics objects
inside a library for a FLA file.
I then drag these pieces onto stage to build a more complex
object. I then select all those pieces and group them and
convert this new object into a movie clip.
Frorm there I move it into the library for that FLA file.
I notice there is both a graphic for this object plus the
movie clip for that object. To me these are 2 separate
objects. So when I delete the graphic of the object,
it also deletes the movie clip I created of the object.
Does anyone know why this happens?
Thanks,
Jim

Kglad,
Let me show you exactly what I mean. See the screenshots below: And then the text that follows.
Symbol 9 is a MovieClip ( From A above). It is a complete 9 of diamonds. It is exactly
what I need for my FLA file. Now notice in B I have Symbol 8 highlighted. Symbol 8 is
a partial 9 of diamonds. I do not want Symbol 8 in my library. So I delete it. Once I delete the
graphic shown here as Symbol 8, what happens next is Symbol 9 stays in the library EXCEPT
now Symbol 9 which is a movie clip has all the graphics wiped out. Symbol 9 is still in library
but it becomes a blank movie clip.

Flash IDE Components in Flex 3 Design Mode. Can they be visible there?

Hi,
Im exploring Flex to get a grasp on its concepts and am currently looking into building components in the Flash IDE. Though i guess its likely that when you're more familiar with Flex you build your components in Flex, like said Im exploring its concepts and like to know where and how the Flash IDE fits in its workflow.
I made a simple Flex Component in the Flex IDE, which shows up fine when I run the Flex project. But it does not show in Flex Design Mode.
I have exported the component from Flash as an SWC and added the SWC to the Flex library path. The symbol in the Flash IDE extends UIMovieClip. Now I read in 'Using Adobe FlexBuilder 3' (p.67) that the Flex Components panel only lists visible components, according to the documentation 'components that extend UIComponent'.
Note that my question is about being visible on the stage in Design Mode, not in the component panel. As UIMovieClip doesnt inherit from UIComponent (and the UIComponent class doesnt seem to be available in the Flash IDE), is this also the cause that the Flash IDE component is not visible on the Flex stage in Design Mode?
Can someone confirm, or deny this?
Regards,
Marcel

Hi Latha,
thanks for your feedback. Reading it back though, Im still not sure whether Flex components build in the Flash IDE (using the Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3) can be visible in Flex 3 Design Mode.Maybe you can be a bit more specific and save a lot of Flex beginners a lot of headaches.
I understand that MXML components can be used in Design Mode. I also understand that if your component is AS you have to create a Library and link that to your project to make them visible in Design Mode. I also understand that Flash Builder 4 does "support rendering of UIMovieClip objects which are in library (swc) and added to the project build path"
This actually doesnt answer my question really. Does this mean there is no way to render Flex components build in the Flash IDE (using the Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3) in Flex 3 Design Mode?
Regards,
Marcel

Can't get simple Flash document to post to web site.

I have created a simple page in Flash CS4 for my class and for some reason when I go to publish the page online all I get is an empty page colored blue (background) but neither the title or any of the graphics or images on the page show up, it is kjust a blank blue page on the web browser. I really need an explanation for this so that I do not fail the project. Please help!!
This is the link to the page I am getting and if you can please view the source code and tell me what in the world is wrong:
http://zlloyd1.com/MachoaNorfolkHistory.html I know it is something to do with the paths to the image files but they are all present in my online images folder and I do not know how to modify the HTML file created when you publish a Flash document. I do have some experience with HTML coding but this is not something I recognize. I will await your reply!!
Lost,
Zachariah A Lloyd

Dear Adobe Support,
I am not entirely sure how to add attachments to a forum post. Could you please explain this to me and I will be more than happy to attach the swf file?? I will await your reply and thanks again!!
