Edit Flash Components Scoll Pane

Hello all expert,
I tried to create the movieclip with scrollpane, and everything is fine, I would like to change/amend the scoll bar layout, I tried the edit each movieclip inside the ScrollBar Skins folder, but it cannont get the result what I want. Do anyone tell how/where can show me to do this step by step?
My idea - I want to use a "small ball (fixed size)" in ScrollThumb Skins instead of the long rectangle
many thanks,
Claudiator

You can edit ScrollThumb_upSkin, ScrollThumb_overSkin and ScrollThumb_downSkin for skinning scroll thumb.You can use ball movie clip instead of default thumb movie skins.
But i am not sure whether you can make thumb as fixed size, since it depends on scroll depth. There should be a workaround. Try handling scroll (horizontal and vertical) properties in your action script code by catching scroll events. You should calculate the scroll property based on fixed height of your custom thumb skin and original depth of scroll pane.
If you could make it, let me know.
Regards,
Karthikeyan R.

Question about Director Flash Components's TextInput

Hello,everybody! I used the Flash Components's TextInput in Director 11.5,but there was a problem that when the TextInput in edit status the cursor is missing. And the TextInput still can be edited ! I want when the TextInput in edit status the cursor shows. Please give me a hand, how to solve the problem. Thank you very much.

Yeah, this is the new 10.3. It installs a Preference Pane in Other in Sys Prefs. You can select a number of settings there. I basically allow it to do as little as possible, except for the update notification.
In storage, I would select "Block all sites from storing...." (That's the option to disable "Local Shared Objects," Adobe's cute euphemism for cookies. Until now, they have been hidden away in the Macromedia folder in your home folder>Library>Preferences where I've locked everything up, after trashing the Macromedia folder and getting a new one after visiting http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager07.html)
I can give you instructions for doing that. Post back if you want them. Not sure how effective the new Pref Pane is, especially now that I see it reset the default of "Allow sites to save...." and all the defaults. Maybe it only sticks from an admin account and I recently started running from a standard account, while using an admin account solely for authentication. I will have to look into that.
Definitely turn off Camera and Mic. In Playback check "Block all sites...."

Using Flash Components in multiple SWCs inside AS-only project

Ok, this is a somewhat complicated issue dealing with SWCs and compilers. I've outlined steps to reproduce the problem below. I'm using the method outlined here to bring in Flash content to my project. I have 15-20 SWCs already, and it's working fine for those assets, the problem is specifically related to Flash's components (ComboBox, RadioButton etc.) If anyone has *any* advice on this, please let me know as we are completely stumped at this point!
The issue we're having involves using multiple external SWC files which contain AS3 components from Flash CS4. When two SWCs are linked to an ActionScript project (using Flash Builder 4 Beta (build 4.0.0)) there are collisions in the referenced classes which cause the most recently published SWC to knock out any duplicate classes in the other SWCs. A simple way to replicate this is as follows:
1. Create one FLA, called 'compA', drag one ComboBox, RadioButton and TextInput component onto the stage. Select all and convert to symbol, marking the symbol for export with a class name of Test1.
2. Create a second FLA, called 'compB', drag one ComboBox, Label and UIScrollbar onto the stage. Convert these to a symbol with a classname of 'Test2'.
3. Create a new ActionScript-only project in Flash Builder, called 'ComponentTest'.
4. Create a 'libs' folder in this new project. Select 'Project -> Properties -> ActionScript Build Path' and add the libs folder as a new SWC folder in the Library Path window.
5. Go back to compA.fla and right click the Test1 symbol in the library. Select 'Export SWC file...' and save it as compA.swc in the libs folder.
6. Do the same thing for compB.fla.
7. Edit ComponentTest.as and in the constructor, create an instance of Test1 and Test2, placing each on the stage.
8. Run the app, and the ComboBox will only be functional in one instance (whichever was published last.) The other ComboBox will behave like a MovieClip, cycling over the two frames in the stage asset (avatar and skin.) It will have no association to anything in the fl.* package.
Looking at the 'Referenced Libraries' in Flash Builder, compA may show it contains classes for the RadioButton and TextInput, but no ComboBox classes are referenced (sometimes it will show no classes at all, but this appears to be an unrelated bug with refreshing external libraries in Flash Builder.)
Unzipping the SWC files and examining their catalog.xml manifests shows all the necessary classes are listed (i.e. ComboBox is in both.)
Removing either SWC will cause the remaining one to work properly, so the problem appears to be in compiling the ComponentTest project which includes both.
Attempted Workarounds:
1. Create a new FLA, drag all components used in both files onto the stage and export a SWC called 'components.swc'. Add this SWC to the project's libs folder. In both compA and compB FLA files, add this SWC as an external library in the ActionScript 3.0 Publish settings. Re-export both SWCs. The theory is that the compiler will look for the required classes in the components.swc first, and thus not include them in the export, however this is not the case.
2. Same as above, deleting ComponentShim from both FLAs before exporting. The result is that no component classes are included, so all components act like MovieClips.
3. Add the Components source folder to the external library path of both FLAs, assuming the compiler will favor classpath references over compiled class references (ComponentShim). Same result.
Summary: We have been unable to find a way to use Flash Components in a project if they are referenced in more than one asset library. If we were able to import them once, and have all SWCs which need those classes use a single source, this might not be an issue, but the compiler does not appear to handle this (and we are admittedly not advanced enough to even know if this is possible.)

Hi!
I'm having the same problem. Any news on the matter?
Also, this looks like a very similar problem.

V2 Flash components unsupported in Director?

Page 11 of
http://www.adobe.com/support/director/flash_8_asset_xtra.pdf
states that v2 Flash components are unsupported by the Flash Asset
Xtra.
What exactly does this mean, particularly when all the
built-in Flash components are v2 components, aren't they?

I have a scrollpane in a SWF that gets pulled into director
which doesn't
have that problem.
However I have had plenty of problems with other Flash things
in Director
requrinand I found changing onMouseUp to onRelease or
onMouseDown to onPress
and it usually solves the problem. I don't know if you have
access to the
code for the scroll pane without overriding the class in
Flash.

Problem with flash components in director tollbox

1- I have 2 buttons named "makeQst1BT" in frame 1 and "chkQst1BT" in frame 2, which both are draged from toolbox.
First the user gets a random question in frame 2 andhas to answer it, When the user clicks "chkQst1BT" its visible is to disappear after answering. it is done nicely and button disappears.by the follwing code.
sprite("chkQst1BT").visible =false
then later when user navigates back to a frame 1 again and wants to make a new question and presses "makeQst1BT" this button is to set the visible of "chkQst1BT" to true again by this code:
sprite("chkQst1BT").visible =true
BUT here I get script error indicating that PROPERTY #visible not found.
Why this happens? and how can I set the visible of chkQst1BT back to true?
( I get many similar script errors saying PROPERTY #text not found in the same movie)
2- I have draged many textArea flash components from toolbox, then want to change their ink from copy to background transparent, it appearantly accepts this choice but it is still displayed like "copy" with white bakgr.( I do it from property inspector window)
What is strange is that only one of text Areas changes appearance when ink changed to background transparant but not others.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

First off, you should know that the flash components aren't that predictable/stable to begin with, but anyway.
1 If the sprite only exists in frame 2 you can't change it's properties in frame 1. What you can do, and I'm reasonably sure you don't need to, is to put the visible code in a on begin sprite handler for a script on the sprite which should be run every time you enter frame 2.
2. Works fine here so I can only speculate on what's causing your problem. My guess is that the text areas share sprite channel with some other component during your movie and that component has it's ink set to copy. Move the flash text area component to their own channels or add a behavior script to them that sets the ink in the on begin sprite handler.

How to Edit Flash Symbol in Photoshop?

In Flash CS4, I have a graphic of a long filmstrip with 24 pix in it. I need to edit the symbol in photoshop (to put all new pix in), and then replace the current filmstrip with the new filmstrip. How? This is CS4, not CS5.

Add an image to a folder with your fla, image folder(with image inside) and then re import image to stage again then try 'EDIT' the file!

Problem in loading Flash Components

Hai,
I have a problem in loading flash components using
actionscript.
Example( List Components).
I can load List components dynamically using frame script
like.
import mx.controls.List;
var myList:List = createObject("List","nList",10);
But I can't load dynamically from inside a class file like.
import mx.controls.List;
class testClass{
private var myList;
function testClass( ){
myList = createObject( "List","nList",10 );
But it is not working i don't know why ?
If any one knows Please reply me.
Thank you.

The over flash file works if i'm loading images direct from a
path but, i'm using php script to pull the files in binary format
and, it's causing problems in in firefox..

Edit-flash button grayed out

Hey, I have Dreamweaver MX2004 and Flash MX2004 normally
installed on my computer. Although my edit-flash button is grayed
out when i'm in the properties panel of the .swf document (who i
added to my document with Insert >> Media >> Flash)
http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/8024/helplr4.jpg
I searched alot for this, but it does not seem to happen to
anyone. Can somebody help me? Thanks.

No, PSE 6 and later never displays an icon for a sub-category. If you accidentally created a sub-category where a leaf keyword tag will do, change the sub-category to a keyword tag by right-clicking it, and then you'll be able to assign an icon. But if you change the keyword tag back to a sub-category, the icon will disappear.
None of that design seems very well thought out.

CS3 Web Standard SE. Can't edit Flash buttons

I have an issue where I am unable to edit Flash buttons or
Flash text that have been created in DW CS3.
I am using CS4 Web Standard SE. A colleague of mine is using
the same software and also unable to edit these.
Until now I thought it was maybe a trial issue but have today
activated the software. But the issue remains.
Regards
Dave

It's not a Trial issue. It's a conscious design decision by
Adobe announced
in Aug 07.
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402489
Flash buttons and Flash text have always been ill conceived
features for
webpages.
Adobe recognised this by dropping them from DW CS4.
If you still want to keep them and edit them, use DW CS3.
However, consider using CSS styled buttons instead.

Flash components in VC

We upgraded to EHP1 SP6 to get the flash component working in VC.
I uploaded the BO flash meters I found in a PDF (/people/amir.mimran/blog/2009/09/11/flash-components-for-visual-composer-70--flexibility-is-the-name-of-the-game)
I can add them to the storyboard and connect the input fields. Only after I deploy the model the gauge meter shows up without the range colors and with the value 50. when I click on it, it changes to 0 but it never shows the value (10) I set in the storyboard.
The same goes with all the other BO flash components from the PDF
They seem fine in the storyboard and they look fine in the deployed model except no values/wrong values are visible and they doesn't do much at all.

Flash components+VB isssue

Hi,
I am doing a project which involves flah UI ,XML and VB. The
UI has two major Tree Compnents,One menu bar and a few Accordions.
All of these are populated with XML. Now this is embedded in a VB
application. The Flash swf will send data to the VB shell and the
VB writes the XML data with the changes , what ever the user had
done in the tree or accordion..(Adding or removing nodes or some
thing like that).All works fine ..But when user reloads the
application ..by clicking on a language selection menu item(To
change the language), the flash application goes awry. All the data
is loaded every field and compnents are populated with their
corresponding XMLs ..But Nothing is clickable!.
Tree nodes don't open, menu items dont open, accordions are
not collapsing.But they all are showing data.
Basic functionalites attached to simple buttons are
working..but other that that no other component works in a way how
it needs to work.
The strange things is that, if we create an VB alert while
changing the lanuage and reloading it again..IT WORKS.
We tried with delays and reloading and all. Nothing solves
the issue.
Can anybody please tell me where the issue is?
Note : The Project Worked well when it was deployed in a
webserver with jsp as the backend.The only change made was in the
way in which you send values to the backend.. apart from this the
flash code is the same.
Thanks And Regards,
BlueSquid

For all the benefits brought by components, their KB weight
is
definitely a drawback. That said, the ActionScript 3.0
components weigh
less then their ActionScript 2.0 counterparts.
> Probably there's a common library used for all user

You nailed it. In fact, if you study the components in the
ActionScript
2.0 Components Reference or the ActionScript 3.0 Language and
Components
Reference, you'll see the hierarchical "family tree" common
to all
comonents, then common to groups of related components.
> Is there any way to reduce the size of the swf, maybe
import
> ONLY what is needed, do we have that option?
Unfortunately, you don't have that option. When you import a
component,
it weighs whatever it weighs; you're already importing the
minimum that
component needs. On the bright side, when you import a second
component,
the combined total KB is usually considerably less than the
sum of each
component's individual weight.

Flash components & XML

Hi all,
I am working on a new project that I can't seem to find any
help resources for. I am using the Flash Components, binding and
schemas to link together text fields, drop downs(ComboBox), and a
button to the XML Connector. The part I can't figure out is if
there is a way to make the button dynamically change it's
destination URL when the subject of the dropdown(ComboBox
component) is changed. In the XML file, I have nodes for all the
components to accept. Is there any way for the Component button to
accept the different <URL> nodes as I change the parent node
with the drop down box? I thought maybe a variable or an instance
name in the XML Connector or Button Component bindings or schema
area could work. But no luck yet. Thanks in advance.

huh! I'v tried searching for that phrase exactly & have
had few matching results!! How did you do that?? Thats magic that
is! Thanks alot! (Found one on the first result!)

Flash components in Flex

I have built an interface in Flash CS3 and now have the need
to port it over to Flex. I am trying to do it with as little
re-build as possible, so I need to port the Flash components over
with it. I exported a SWC with all of the components I am using,
and added it to the Library Path of an AS project.
The build gives me no errors, but I do get a #2007 at
runtime. The error seems to be stemming from a Yahoo ASTRA Flash
component, which was included in the SWC.
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChildAt()
at fl.controls::BaseButton/drawBackground()
at fl.controls::LabelButton/draw()
at fl.controls::Button/draw()

com.yahoo.astra.fl.controls.tabBarClasses::TabButton/draw()
at fl.core::UIComponent/drawNow()
at com.yahoo.astra.fl.controls::TabBar/drawButtons()
at com.yahoo.astra.fl.controls::TabBar/draw()
at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()
I have been searching around the net, and the majority of
people are saying that this happens when the skins aren't included
(so you need to set them before the component is added to the
stage). I am using customized programmatic skins, for which the
source files are included in the build, and the styles get set
before the component is added to the stage (I actually replaced the
default ones in the class).
Does anyone have any other ideas as to how I could fix this?
PS - It is an ASTRA TabBar component that is giving me
issues. I know that Flex has a TabBar and TabNavigator, but I can't
find any documentation on how to use these from an AS project (no
MXML). I will simply rebuild using the native Flex controls if
necessary, and if possible, but would prefer to fix the issue as it
currently stands. (I might go back to Flash at some point, and
don't want to tie myself to a particular solution, considering I
can't use Flex components in Flash).
PPS - If you are wondering why I am porting to Flex right
now, especially if I am considering taking it back to Flash in the
future, it is because I have the need to begin building in
FlashPlayer 10 functionality, and the only way you can build to
FP10 right now (as its in beta) is with a nightly build of
Flex.

Item category editable for components in task list

Hi all,
I need help to put the item category editable for components in task list.
Currently it comes as "L" and the field is non editable. Do you have any ideas or solutions? I already tried SPRO but didn't find anything useful.
Thanks in advance,
MB

Thanks Maheswaran,
So if it isn't possible to make it editable, how can I change the category to 'N'?
Does that configuration depend on the company? Because I want the item category to be 'N' for just some companies.
Thanks
