Creating SWF in Illustrator

Hello,
I get in trouble to create very simple animations in illustrator.
I have a green square, and I don't know how to do to change its color when the mouse is over ...
Does somebody can help me ?
Thanks a lot!

You are using the wrong tool. Interactive authoring requires Flash/ Flash Catalyst. AI only does linearly playing SWFs.

Is a printer connected? Is it turned ON? Is the driver up to date?
Illustrator checks this every time and also writes information on the printer into the file.

Boxes created in Adobe Illustrator and placed in InDesign appear misaligned in PDF.

Boxes created in Adobe Illustrator and placed in InDesign appear misaligned in PDF.

?Hi, Sara.
I'm viewing in Adobe Acrobat Pro. Not sure what my client has.
And, yes, the boxes are all transparent. I tried pasting the native AI file, and EPS file, with the same result. When viewed at 150% and above, they look perfect. But, when viewed to fit page on screen, they distort.
They print fine, too.

Created file in illustrator then opened in photoshop but color code changed?

I Created file in illustrator and then opened the art in photoshop but the wierd thing is that the color code changed. If you look at the image with you eye the color will look the same to the naked but if you use the eye dripper tool you can see that the color code has changed between illustrator and photoshop.
Is there a way to make the CMYK color code stay the same?

In Illustrator the "Edit---> color settings" are set to "North America General Purpose 2" and the that is the same color setting choice in Photoshop.
For example there is a black color in Illustrator that has this CMYK code "60, 49,47, 100"
but in photoshop the CMYK code for the same part of the graphic changes to "75, 68, 67, 90"
This is only one example of many color code changes that are happening and this may look like the same color on the screen but I need them to both have the same code because I am doing specialized printing and need no changes in color codes like this to occur.
If I have the color setting in both photoshop and illustrator both set exactly the same "Edit---> color settings" then do you know why this color shift would be happening. Please help.

What is the best way to create tables in Illustrator cs5

Hello everyone,
I am currently working on making a project board for a printer. It needs to have rows and colums so that a project can be tracked and assigned on a day by day basis. I figured I would just creat a table for this. Is there a good way to create tables in Illustrator cs5?

1. Copy Excel table and paste in illustrator and Clipping Mask -> Release
2. Ungroup! Group or may not be released, so please ungroup twice.
3. Excute javascript.
* Document mode must be CMYK.
* All Layer On & Unlock!
* Excel table as shown above the line must be black in color.

On Mac created swf file looses actions once opened on PC

The following issue is occuring:
We create an ebook with Indesign CS5. Then create an FLA file from it or export from pdf to swf straight via InDesign. We create swf in HTML and an Exe file. The following happens:
The Exe file is totally corrupted. Once opened on the PC either in Explorer or FireFox The file just goes wild no actions work at all. The HTML with the swf file works partly. The sound buttons don't work nor the external links in the files. This is a major isuue and we must find a solution for this.
Best Regrads!
Itale

So far I made a bit of progress and the following happens:
The original file is created in InDesign CS5 for Mac with animations, sounds and internal and external (Go To URL) links.
Once exported to SWF from Indesign and opened either with Flash player or Firefox on the Mac everything seems to be in order. Once I open the file on a browser on the PC s.a. Explorere or Firefox the external links won't work. All the rest works but the GoTo URL won't open the url's
I can't seem to find a reason for this. Are you familiar witrh this issue and if so do you have any suggestions that may solve this issue?
Kind Regards

How to Create PDF from Illustrator CS3 by using applescript?

Hi Guys,
Do some one knows how to create PDF from Illustrator CS3 by using apple script. If know, please give me the scripting.

Have you tried File>Scripts>SaveDocsAsPDF? There should be a folder of sample scripts installed in your AICS3 folder and a folder of documentation which contains an Illustrator AppleScript Reference which has examples.

Rants: Easier way of creating SWF panels with CS5?

Last week I got a fairly advanced SWF panel in Photoshop CS4 running executing JSX scripts. But when I started to look into developing for CS5 everything changed and former SWF panels and their scripts do not work anymore in Photoshop CS5. And honestly I think there are way to many complicated little steps in the way to just get started. I am probably stuck on this for several weeks just to get a hello world demo running- and I am not sure If I want that. Getting the CS4 version running was a matter of 3 nights, even though back then the documentation was really hard to find and often incomplete.
So upon studying the SDK and the tutorials that adobe provides I noticed a few annoying blockers in my way
Adobe Flash builder dictation, some things are very restrictive and shown only for just that IDE platform. My choice of scripting environment is FlashBuilder however for various reasons (free and coding speed are 2 of them). The documentations and Tutorials however hide many important steps that are going on in the background. If the compiler gets certain arguments I need to know that, same if some ANT scripts or alike deploy files to certain folders.
upon configuring my computer before scripting I had to change a windows registry key (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Softwarea\Adobe\CSXS2Preferences, playerDebugMode = 1). However that key entry doesn't even exist to begin with on my Windows 7 computer even though Photoshop CS5, Extention Manager and ExtendScript Toolkit are present and installed.
I need a special SDK compiler instead of the latest FlexSDK, this makes things only more complicated and confusing. I have it now but to figure that out took a while, as this is completely different from how things used to work with CS4.
Everything is flex focused it would be nice if some tutorials could have a focus on pure AS3 as well, for those who don't like the Flex framework or GUI.
CS4 and CS5 (Photoshop) seem to be incompatible in the way one can deploy or create SWF panels, this is a major down for any developer that is interested in supporting booth applications. I happen to work in a environment where still a majority of people work with CS4. Also the CS4 documentation (Photoshop) for the SWF panels seem to have vanished, this makes this issue even worse.
So what I want is:
The most minimalistic working example straight to the point just to get a SWF panel in Photoshop CS5 running executing some JSX script using eval for example. This is easy in CS4 but very restricted and complicated in CS5 .
dropping a SWF file in the Photoshop/plugins/panel folder works but it resizes wrong (even though stage.scaleMode is set to noScale), and any CSXSInterface methods seem to be ignored (CSXSLibrary-2.0-sdk-3.4-public.swc used).
I think I gave up for now on CS5, to restrictive, complex and incompatible with CS4 are my main complaints- I hope this gets through as some feedback - or maybe there is a answer on all my questions?

Hello,
one answer to your last question could be this cookbook, then as you probably already know there's the Photoshop panel developer's guide (the CS5 isn't that different from CS4...)
As the #1 messy coder around (and not that much skilled), I understand your complaints. I'm focused on Photoshop only, and the panel guide for CS4 was more than enough. My learning curve with CS SDK is, to put it mildly, steep (since I've not really any previous experience with Flex - and I agree, using 3.4 SDK and not 4.0 may lead to some confusion), but I'm optimistically confident that CS SDK for CS6 will be far more usable.
I find particularly annoying that to make life easier Adobe created CS Extension Builder, but to get it is nearly impossible (at least for me: I don't know if Gmail can't get thru Adobe mail server spam control, but in the last 4 months I wrote several emails to Roger Risdal, the "Partner Product and Business Developer Manager" in order to get info about the developer partnership required, and I got as the only answer a couple of out-of-office autoreply) Rumors say that Adobe's DevNet will undergo some robust changes (when, I don't know) - I hope they will change their mind about the way Extension Builder will be (or not be) distributed.
One last optimistic consideration is that the tools needed to deploy an extension (the ucf.jar for instance) and the general workflow (write the manifest.xml, pack everything with that java command line utility into a zip-like file, the .zxp, then write an .mxi to access features like auto-update and re-pack again into *another* .zxp) are far from having a good usability and being straightforward... so far that in my opinion the newer releases will surely be better than this one.
That said, I understand that experienced developers are happily plunging into CS SDK while I'm having hard times keeping my head above waters, and I'm sure CS SDK will lead to a very interesting future.
By the way, to drop the SWF in the panel's folder isn't a good idea if you want the extension to have the right dimensions (this is something I've learnt) - the manifest.xml is the right place.
Ciao,
Davide

Insert multiple Camtasia created swfs as animation only displays the first animation with the template/control bar

Greetings,
I have started adding Camtasia created .swfs to Captivate
projects.
The first added animation will display the template and
control bar the animation file is published with in Camtasia.
After that, any additional .swf animation files also created
exactly the same do n ot display the template or control bar and
just play as soon as the slide begins.
My theory is that the initial template and play button
convince all the subsequent animations the user has pushed play.
I would like for each animation on individual slides to
display the template and control bar correctly and have tried to
adjust animation timing to no avail...
Anyone else run into this one
Template is Camtasia Studio 5 Express Show Published as .swf
files then inserted as animation into Captivate
Both Camtasia and Captivate latest versions.
Animations work correctly just need Camtasia template and
control bar to show in all animations....
Any help much appreciated!

Hi maya12357 and welcome to our community
Out of curiosity, since you already have your project output
from Camtasia, why are you trying to insert into Captivate?
I do have Camtasia 4, so I'm not sure if the output files
from it are similar to 5. But I'm not sure if you will be 100%
successful in getting all the Camtasia elements to show inside a
Captivate project.
Cheers... Rick

Error creating swf movie file

Hello,
I'm trying to create a virtual world but every time I try and publish it, it says error creating swf movie file. Here's a video to show you what i mean:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRAAGoQK80A&feature=youtu.be

Hi foxxy123,
Two things that I noticed in the video:
1) You are not saving the file before publishing.
2) Flash warns you about the fonts missing from your system while opening the file.
"The document contains one or more fonts not available on your system. The text will display and publish with the font mapping below:"
So download and install the fonts on your computer "Blaster" and "Blaster Infinite" and save the file before publishing.
It doesn't seem to be saying error creating swf movie file, it just says something about the font not being right.
The message warn you that you have an anti-alias mode set on text and it requires you to have embedded fonts to use anti-aliasing. If you do not want to see that message anymore, then select your text blocks and set the anti-alias types to Use Device Fonts.
You can disable the warning message in the preferences dialog
Edit > Preferences > Warnings > uncheck "Warn on text needs embedded font".
Hope this helps,
Thanks!

Is it possible to create swf online?

is it possible to create swf online?
such as using jsfl?
anyone knows?

Hi there,
If you want to do this it is wise to put all the variables at the beginning of the swf / fla. Like the person who needs to change things doesn't need to change all the small details.

There are many people complaining about this in other threads. I found the solution from kglad in this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5750996
You can get Flash CC to publish to version 9 player by putting these two files in these locations:
This file: http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/5510986-147069/Fl ashPlayer9_0.xml
Goes here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CC\Common\Configuration\Players\FlashPlayer9_0.xml
This file: http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/5510986-147068/pl ayerglobal.swc.zip
Goes here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CC\Common\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\FP9\playerglobal.swc
You may need to create the FP9 folder.
Restart flash and you should see Player 9 in your publish options. You'll have to find the AS3 clickTag code.

Import SWF into illustrator

Hi there
Just wondering if anyone knows a way to import an SWF sequence into Illustrator?
I've tried placing and opening the swf in illustrator but neither seem to work
Thanks a lot
Larry

I think the best you can do is export from Flash as a gif, jpeg or png sequence.

Creating an SWF in Illustrator CS2 with a web link

I am trying to create a simple flash animation using CS2 (I don't have Flash). I made the animation ok, but apparantly I need to have the click through embedded in the animation in order for it to work properly on out company web site.
If you would like to see the web ad in question, go to kaaltv.com. It is called Cookie Creations on the right side.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Or maybe DON'T USE FRAMES....
The decision to use or not use frames should be based on a)
your site's
needs, and b) your willingness to accept the potential
problems that frames
can create for you as developer and maintainer of the site
and for your
visitors as casual users of the site.
I am down on frames because I believe that they create many
more problems
than they solve.
Judging from the posts here, and the kinds of problems that
are described,
the kind of person most likely to elect to use frames is also
the kind of
person most likely ill-prepared fo solve the ensuing problems
when they
arise. If you feel a) that you understand the problems and b)
that you are
prepared to handle them when they occur, and c) that you have
a need to use
frames, then by all means use them.
As far as I know, the most comprehensive discussions of
frames and their
potential problems can be found on these two links -

Does DW create .swf files?

Hello, I have Creative Suite 2, and have been asked by a
client (I am also a web developer, but mainly using ASP) to rescue
their website. Their designer has *lost* the original files which
were written in Dreamweaver, so he tells me, and I don't have a
copy of Dreamweaver.
AS I have CS2 - photoshop, illustrator, indesign, GoDesign,
is there a way I can get Dreamweaver, or another product cheaply,
just so I can help this one client out? I am not too sure I
actually want to plunge in and buy Dreamweaver, as I don't really
know what I would use it for, and I expect the learning curve to be
as steep as the other Creative Suite products were!
If anyone could recommend/suggest a fix for me (all I have
are .html and .swf files that are sitting on my client's website),
for me to be able to update his website, that would be great - I
really don't want to have to scrap what he has and start over in
another software package. Or if you can convince me that it is easy
to start desiging flash files, maybe I might go there! (I presume
Dreamweaver's primary purpose is to create Flash websites?)
Many thanks!
Teresa

Is the current site a Flash site? If it is, you are in big
trouble....
