CS4 animation to Flash CS3?

PhotoShop CS4 NOT extended: How do you take an animation
sequence into Flash CS3 as a movie clip ready to play?
I don't want to import every single layer as an object and
then try to distribute them all over the timeline manually.
Is there some convenient alternative?

well, AS3 has completely changed but you can still use AS1 or
AS2 and publish to any older player -
upgrading the authoring tool doesn't limit backward
compatibility.

  • Editing Flash CS4 files in Flash CS3

    Looking to upgrade our main multimedia production machine from CS3 to CS4, but we probably won't upgrade all the other machines just yet.
    Main question: If you work on a Flash file in CS4, can you work on it in CS3 and save it, or will some of the functionality be lost in doing so? Or is a matter of just having to save it in a certain way to make sure it works?
    Also, is there any issue with importing CS3 Illustrator, Flash or any other kind of files into After Effects CS4?
    Thanks!
    Matt

    cs4 can save files for cs3 so, it "..is a matter of just having to save it in a certain way..".
    you could lose some functionality if you used any flash player 10 capabilites that aren't in fp 9.  to prevent that you would always publish for fp 9 in your cs4 file to ensure you could use the file in cs3.
    i can't see any problems with importing non-flash cs4 files into flash cs3.

  • Flash cs3 animation freeze problem

    The subject of this post is seeking help to the following
    problem: As i get 3/4 through my animation my flash cs3 suddenly
    freezes down on me and the only thing that helps is closing it down
    from the task manager. All the other applications run perfectly
    well in the background. Got a pretty good system (3GB ram, vista,
    dual core processor). Can anyone help!!!

    Ни когда

  • Help!! Flash CS3 and CS4 "Test Movie" very slow on OS X

    This is a problem that, having read many forums, affects a
    very large amount of people, though Adobe doesn't care at all. It
    only affects OS X users. I know that it has been addressed many
    times in different forums, but I never actually stumbled across
    anyone having found a solution.
    When I use Flash CS3, and I make any animation, even the
    simplest tween, and I preview it with Test Movie, the result I get
    is an extremely slow playback. Something like half the FPS it
    should be.
    However, when I export the SWF and preview it in the external
    Flash Player or in a browser, it's just fine and fast.
    Another interesting thing is that in CS3, when I open the
    Help panel, the problem with Test Movie only happens like 20% of
    the time. In that case, it only gets solved if I restart or Log Out
    at least. I have no idea why the Help panel being open solves the
    problem, this only shows that this is probably a little graphic
    user interface bug, or something similar, that could be solved very
    very easily.
    In Flash CS4, there is no Help panel, so there is no solution
    to the problem.
    It would be nice to be able to press Cmd + Enter to see the
    movie, and not have to do File > Export > bla bla bla, open
    Finder, Find the SWF, double click it, wait for the browser to
    open... etc...
    I have a brand new 2.5 GHz MacBook Pro, and Test Movie runs
    faster on my 900MHz Pentium III PC!! Funny...
    Here are some links I found about this problem:
    http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-878
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb407896
    http://www.kirupa.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-258991.html
    This is quite ridiculous, and on Adobe's Support page, the
    solution is "Do not use Test Movie."
    And the funny thing is that they didn't even bother to fix
    this in CS4...
    So basically if something doesn't work, Adobe's solution is
    "Don't use it."
    I guess they're right!
    Please, tell me if anyone has or does not have this problem
    or knows anything about it!

    1) Every post I see that you have made recently reflects on problems that are most likely associated with your computer that are causing problems with your software. 1st thing I would look at with your problems (and I do not mean just this one) is a conflict with another program, ei antivirus software, etc. Trying turning off programs one by one, relaunching your CS programs, and see if you can find a culprit.
    2) With that kind of attitude you are only going to receive just as friendly/helpful solutions. Just because SOMEONE ELSE doesn't solve YOUR problem does not mean that THEY are ignorant.

  • Problem in displaying Arabic text in flash cs3/cs4

    Hi All, I'm creating one website. I have to display dynamic xmlize arabic text in flash. I have done it using flash cs3/AS3. But problem is that when text displays in flash it is not rendering as expected. Some gaps comes in the characters. But when I open my xml in browser, arabic text displays correct.
    Is there any way to do it in flash cs3 or Flash cs4 using player 9? It would be really great if anyone can give me solution on this. Thanks
    Chandrakant

    You have to do it yourself -  I don't have a ready solution. Just look into documentation how StyleSheets are used and see what properties work best for you:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.html
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/StyleSheet.html
    Also, with embedded fonts you need to play with TextFormat settings and AntiAliasType
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/AntiAliasType.html
    In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others.

  • Flash CS3 or CS4 Developer Certification

    Hi,
         I am a flash developer, I am looking for Flash Developer certification in CS3 or CS4 but Adobe still don't have any certification for Flash Developer.
         Only Flash CS3 certification are there in Adobe. If Any one know When Adobe Planning to release Flash Developer certification please add that
    details  in this Forums or If you know any mail id for Adobe certification preparation team also please let know. Thanks

    Adobe hasn't in the past broken the Flash certification down into Developer v Designer.  Adobe only puts an ACE certification on Flash as a whole, with every part of the IDE, including scripting, in the exam.
    It looks like they haven't completed a CS4 Flash ACE exam yet, so the only one available is the Flash CS3 ACE.
    http://partners.adobe.com/public/ace/main.html
    There are, however, specialist certification groups that you can go for, which require passing multiple exams.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/certification/ace_certify.html
    Look under the two expandable items (designated by "+ Products available for proficiency")

  • Flash CS4 Hangs when opening a flash CS3 file

    Hi to all,
    I'm having a big problem with a flash file. I installed CS4,
    and trying to open a flash CS3 file crashes CS4. It´s a
    complex file, but it opened quickly with no problems in CS3.

    Thanks in advance

    Hmmm - I havent experienced this here - CS4 opens all of my
    CS3 files no
    matter how large or small and across netwrks. I would try
    opening your file
    in CS3 again, do a save as with a new name, then launch CS4
    and try opening
    the newly saved file.

  • Flash CS3, Having Problems Creating Button Animation

       I am relatively new to Flash CS3, and don't use action script... I am creating an animation with sound using the button graphic option so it is a clickable button. I have the animation finished, and the sound embeded, and everything is working great, except when I publish it, I have to click and hold over the graphic for the animation to happen... If I click and release, the animation and sound clips stop... What am I doing wrong and how on Earth can I fix it??? Thank you in advance for any suggestions!!

    Yup, that is how it works. You can't control which state a button is in. So when you click on it, it will go to the down state and when you let go it will go back to over (or up if you release outside).
    Not sure exactly what the "fix" is. It depends upon what you are trying to do. Generally you would need to use MovieClips instead of buttons with event handlers to tell you "button" what to do. Very few people I know actually use buttons.

  • Flash CS3 Animation and Audio not timed properly when packaged.

    I am trying to create a simulation with audio, mouse movement, mouse clicks and screen changes. When I play the movie in Flash, the animation and the audio are timed properly. However, when I package it, the animation falls behind the audio. I am using wavs for the audio - I've tried mp3s also.
    I have a screen displayed with a mouse. The audio and a highlight indicate the next step, then the mouse moves and clicks the desired area - with a audio mouse click. The first "click" sound is pretty close to where it is supposed to be, but as the movie plays, it begins to occur earlier and earlier. So much so, that the audio starts to begin prior to animation is complete later in the move. This is not a real long demonstration, only about 1100 frames, but I notice the problem around frame 180.
    Any suggestions?

    IE stinks. There's a huge performance difference when playing
    SWFs in
    Firefox and IE. We have seen SWFs reach 100fps in FF 3.0
    while the same SWF
    taps out at around 40fps in the latest IE browser. It's not
    Flash, it is the
    browser.

  • Can i make Animations with Adobe Flash CS3 Professionals?

    can i make Animations with Adobe Flash CS3 Professionals? my
    goal is to make a Animation Serie But i got no Expereience!
    Is it any place i can learn how to use Adobe Flash CS3
    Professionals? Can i get a tutorial/training thing on
    www.adobe.com?

    Ha!
    Just scratch the surface by using the search functions on
    this site or google - thousands of
    websites that showcase flash animations since version 3 back
    in the late 90's - many websites have
    dedicated themselves to flash training and tutorials over the
    years.
    Basically, anything on the web that looks animated, right
    click over it and 9 times out of ten it
    will say "Flash".
