Embedding Flash Charts (*.swf-file) to WebTemplate

Hi, due to customer requests we want to embedd Flash Charts to our WebTemplate in BI7.0. The examples we´ve got contain JavaScript and the necessary staff. There are *.swf files available. But is it possible to use the Scripting in a WebItem Chart ? Has someone just experience in that ? I´m looking forward for some interesting information. I couldn´t find the right answer yet here.

How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI format without losing quality?

How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI (or another video) format without losing quality?

As long as you don't have code in your animation then just hit File->Export->Export Movie, then configure the options.
Here's an article on exporting sound, images and video. Just skip on down to exporting AVI and it explains the process. The codec is in the Video Compression section. When you click Settings for Video Compression, the codec is in the drop-down at the top. There's various kinds but to get lossless quality AVI you'll have to choose Uncompressed / None for full quality. Again, the file will be huge and you'll need to use another program (like Adobe Media Encoder) or Microsoft Windows Media Encoder, etc, depending on what format you intend to compress it ultimately.

Help with embedding fonts in swf file

Hi, I am haviing a problem with my fonts displaying in my swf file. I created the flash site using CS4 on a mac. I thought the fonts were embedded but when I tested the swf in safari and firefox the fonts disappeared are all scrunched up in 1/2" on top of each other in several lines. Its a mess. It is displaying in times or some other font when viewed in on a pc browser.
What I did so far that did not work:
Made fonts static with animation
made fonts dynamic with animation
How can I fix this?
I am still a beginner using flash so the simpler the option the better.
Thanks!!!

there are quite a few ways you could mess this up but no one way that's typical.
create a new fla. click on the text tool, select static in the combobox and add a textfield to the stage. animate it. test it. any problems?
any other way (or ordering of steps) you use to create static text is prone to problems.

FLV embedded in a SWF file, does not play in HTML file.

Hi,
I embedded a FLV file into flash movie clip, which on publish plays well on SWF file, but when the same is embedded in HTML, it does not play.
What is it i'm missing ..
Kindly help.
Regards
Shashi

First, clarify this... are you embedding the .flv into the time line, as in:
The .FLV file is imported on the timeline of a movie clip.
I embedded the .flv file,
If you are in fact embedding the video, then there is no external video file... it's embedded into the timeline.
If you are using the FLVPlayback component and an external vid file to display the video and the .swf when testing plays the video just fine but not on the HTML Web page:
SWF plays external video file, as soon as I embed SWF in HTML, it no longer playes the external video file.
then it's most likely a pathing problem.
If you are placing the .swf on a Web page and the .swf and/or the .flv file are not both in the same folder as the Web page.... then the .swf should NOT work when you test it directly! That's because it should be pathed to play from the Web page and not the location of the .swf.
For your review:
Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do NOT have to be in the root, they do NOT all have to be in the same folder. But if you have a problem and if sticking them all in the root folder works, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
Just remember that paths used in the .swf become relative to the Web page on which the .swf is placed, NOT it’s physical location. So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root folder, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, images, video, etc), the path used inside the .swf to load the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and then back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
In fact if you are placing the .swf on a web page in a different folder than the .swf is stored in, and that .swf calls external assets, then direct clicking and opening of the .swf in it’s folder should NOT work! That’s because the paths to the external assets should be relative to the Web page and not the physical location of the .swf.
So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the Flash related files in what ever folders you want.

CS3 and AS2: Embedding an external swf file

Hey everyone,
I have built a few flash sites before and am trying to make one that is slightly more complicated and allows for dynamic, database stored images and text. I have built a dynamic gallery based on an XML feed in AS2 which works fine. I am trying to embed it into another FLA file that contains the remainder of the site (the gallery will be one page of the main site). I have tried a ridiculous number of different methods but just cannot get it to work. The gallery is built in AS2, so I am using an AS2 FLA file for the main template it is to be embedded in. The simplest method i have tried that i think should work is to create a new AS2 fla file, edit the actions on my actions layer to be:
Empty.loadMovie("My Gallery.swf");
I have then created a new layer for the content and added a MovieClip to the top left of it, named Empty. I have set the instance name of this movie clip to be Empty. From what I have understood from my reading this is the simplest way to display the external file but for some reason it just will not work. It seems to see My Gallery.swf as when i delete it from the local directory i get an 'Error opening URL 'file:///D|/Websites/My Gallery.swf'' message. This message does not appear when this file exists locally, however it just opens a blank screen with nothing within it.
I have been reading numerous tutorials and posts and i'm pretty sure i'm being thick, but for some reason i can't seem to get it to work!
Thanks so much for any light you could shed on this for my guys, it's driving me crazy!
Dave

I have checked that a number of times and unless i'm going crazy (which is distinctly possible) then the instance name is set to Empty. I have uploaded a zip file containing the fla and swf file and the test swf file that is being embedded. You can download it here.
Thanks so much for your help, i really am completely stumped and i know it's going to be something crazy i'm doing and i'm going to hate myself when i finally discover why!

How to detect end of flash movie (SWF file) in Javascript

I have used Dreamweaver CS4 to integrate my SWF file as shown
below. So far so good. See GoToNext()
my website
What I wouldd like to do is have the SWF movie trigger a
javascript function in my html page when the video is stopped
playing (i.e. when it is finished) There are no controlls in that
SWF file - it is basically am add banner. I would think this would
be easiest done by rasinng an event in SWF that is communicated to
javascript, where I can add an event listener, and thus trigger my
function.
How can this be done in the simplest way?
<div id="bodyFlash"
class="clearfloat"><p> </p>
<object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="760"
height="150" id="FlashID" title="Chillifire Banner">
<param name="movie" value="flash/chillifire.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0" />

<param name="expressinstall"
value="Scripts/expressInstall.swf" />


<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="flash/chillifire.swf" width="760" height="150">

<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0" />
<param name="expressinstall"
value="Scripts/expressInstall.swf" />

<div>
<h4>Content on this page requires a newer version of
Adobe Flash Player.</h4>
<p><a href="

alt="Get Adobe Flash player" width="112" height="33"
/></a></p>
</div>

</object>

...

on the last frame in the banner file you can use the
ExternalInterface class to call a specific JS method, and even pass
data if needed.

Need help with Flash CS6 swf files

Playing Flash Movie .swf files in iWeb

This is my second post. The first was about generally not being able to publish my website in iWeb in Argentina. Discovered it was due to the 12 kilobytes a second upload speed!
This query is about trying to get a flash movie with .swf extension to play on my homepage in iWeb
www.edgold.co.uk
Ive made a flash movie on my girlfriends PC. Why? Because she has Flash installed.
Ive transferred it to my Mac and it plays with a programme I downloaded called SWF & FLV Player - no problem there. For the love of trying I cant get it to play.
Ive gone to 'Insert' in iWeb, clicked on Choose and selected the swf file. Ive put it in position on my homepage and published it. Then Ive opened the HTML page thats found in iDisk using TextEdit so that I can change the html to get the flash plug in to play it.
I found all the details on website by 'Vertical Moon'
http://www.verticalmoon.com/tutorials/general/iweb/iweb.htm
Ive followed every step to the letter but where they seem to slip up is that the swf file isnt played by QuickTime. QuickTime on my Mac doesnt want to know! If it was played by QT then I'd have a chance to change the html from 'writeMovie1()' to writeflash1() but there is no sign of that code in the html file let alone having to change it in JavaScript.
At the end of the day Ive got an swf file (Flash) that I want to stiuck on the front page of my website to play over and over. Ive spent over 18 hours on this non-stop and its time I called it a day.
Please can someone tell me how to get iWeb to make friends with it!
Ive looked at lost of other sites about free Video code generating but none of them work!
Cheers
Ed
(Im in Patagonia - documentary photographer...sorting a good site helps me secure sponsorship and future exhibition venues. Your help is appreciated!

Alancito
Thanks for replying and the great info on getting a QuickTime to play automatically.
Please can you continue to help as Im having no luck.
I will write below briefly whats happening.
I made a QuickTime in iPhoto as was suggested. I dropped it into iWebs 'Media' button under the 'Movies' tab, in a folder. I then dropped the QT file onto my web home page. It shows with a control bar at the bottom of its window for playing it.
I published it OK. The live website shows the QuickTime movie BUT you have to click play to start it. So I then I opened the html file in iDisk in TextEdit.
I tried and tried to find the html code for the QT Movie. I read and re-read the whole html file from top to bottom and found no sign of the QT Movie. Then I went to 'Edit' and 'Find' in TextEdit and typed Movie. It came up with a bit of code which says writeMovie1();
I guess that this means it is talking about THE movie in question but there is no more code to
do with 'true' or 'false'. If it said false Id change to true but writeMovie1(); just looks like this:
<script type="text/javascript"></script>
stuck almost at the bottom of the html file page.
Please help...remember Im using iWeb 06
Thanks...I hope Im close to solving this now. All I want is to play the QT automatically.

Importing a flash Catalyst .swf file in Flash CS5 ?

Hi,
I found Flash Catalyst by luck while browsing the Adobe website and downloading the Flash CS5 trial...
One simple question....
Can I import a .swf file created in Flash Catalyst into a Flash CS5 .fla as an element ?
I created a scrolling text attached to a custom made scrolling bar in Flash Catalyst, and I would now like to use it in my Flash CS5 project...
Well, I will be waiting for your responses...
Thanks in advance for your help !
Gilbert Gour

Unfortunately you can't import an SWF from Flash Catalyst into Flash CS5. Flash Catalyst uses the Flex Framework for building the its SWF. Flash CS5 does not use the Flex Framework and doesn't know what to do with that kind of file. You can load an SWF from Flash CS5 into your Flash Catalyst project, though.

Director mx 2004 won't display Flash 8 swf files & other Flash media

I have created a Flash 8 Project which has audio, video (which are converted to swf files fom flvs), flashpaper. This application is driven by XML.
However this application works fine outside director, but when I import the main swf file into director mx 2004 and RUN it, director won't display the videos (but I can hear the audio from the videos), Director wont show graphic images(eg menu icon movie buttons, and flash buttons). Also I can launch external files (eg text file) from flash, but again it won't work via director.
ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE

ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE
I suggest there's no need to shout.
Try linking the Director cast member to the external swf file instead of fully importing it. You also should have the 10.1.1 update in place - this is particularly important.

Server won't display flash html/swf files

I have a set of html/swf files that are "set" exacly like a dozen other nearly identical files that are served correctly by a hosting site but this set only displays a Flash Player upgrade icon on Foxpro and a blank page on IE. My client Flash Player is the latest and works fine for the other dozen nearly identical files. Of course the initiating fla file displays correctly with CS5.5 Flash itself.
I've run out of ideas about what causes the problem and how to fix it. Any ideas please?

Thanks for your response. I've resolved the problem. This one troublesome file was not "set exactly". The Publish Settings "output file" field designated a non-existent folder that was a remnant of a deleted folder. Flash did it's best to sensibly respond.

Printing Flash or SWF File

Hello all,
I am attempting to print a page of my flash file from within
flash (in the root of the file) and certain things are left out, as
they are left out on the actual flash 8 viewing screen.
I also tried compiling it and then going to print from SWF
file on the page I wanted a print out of, that worked better but
still very distorted. I'm just wondering how I can go about
accomplishing the goal of printing out various pages of my flash
file.
Also I know that like internet resolution is like 72dpi but
the flash file I'm not sure what resolution it is at, is there a
way to check? I'd like to print the various pages of my flash file
at the highest possible resolution, so knowing all that thank you
all for the help!
Travis

Your flash file is at 72 dpi unless everything is in vectors,
then it is resolutionless... is that a word? Basically vectors are
scalable to infinity, but bitmaps get fuzzy after a few zoom steps.
Increase the screen resolution on your monitor and zoom in on the
stage to 300% or more, then take the screenshots and change the
resolution in photoshop. Using the zoom you can get more then the
72dpi out of it, if you know what I am talking about.

Flash CS5 SWF File not functioning in Captivate 5

Hi,
I have an Interactive SWF File created in Flash CS5 that has an Intro screen with a button to continue etc and it opens to a presentation with several buttons, and works fine.
I bring the SWF file into Captivate 5. It shows fine in the Slide, but when I test it or publish it, two things happen.
It stops after a second and disappears. I have set it to play for the duration of the animation, but it makes no difference.
If I extend the timeline out to several minutes then it will stay, but although the Start button works, nothing happens, it just sits there.
how do I get the Slide to stop and stay so that the user can take their time interacting with the animation. ( I dont how long someone will spend on the presentation)?
Why doesn't the interactivity actually work?
Cheers
