Flash CS5 can not handle custom-built components ?

Hi all,
A few days ago I decided I wanted to make my own drag&drop flash components, with inspectable properties. Since the documentation for flash components is so limited, I followed the workflow of some blogs I found around the web (mostly about CS3 components). In the end I managed to create a component that has a Live View, that gets a visual update whenever you change the properties (width, height, color..) ....in CS4 !
The problem in CS5 is that when I drag my component on the stage, the timeline of this movieclip starts playing in a loop. As you may or may not know, Components have 1 "Avatar" frame, and 1 "Assets" frame. So this looks kinda weird when that timeline plays.
There is always the possibility that I made a mistake, but when I download the source files from the blog post on the page http://active.tutsplus.com/tutorials/actionscript/creating-flash-components-for-distributi on/comment-page-1/#comment-33865
the same thing happens.
When I then save my CS5 FLA as a CS4 FLA and try to use the downloaded component and my own, both of them work fine in CS4. So I think this might be a bug in CS5.. ? Which is pretty bad because I wanted to use these components in iphone development using the CS5 packager...I read somewhere that we actually use the UIComponent because it has no timeline, so I don't see how it's possible that it plays.
I uploaded my source files to http://www.janjorissen.be/source.zip if anybody would care to take a look. thanks in advance!
By the way, where can I find the adobe bug report center ?
cheers !

anyone ?

FLASH CS6 CAN NOT IMPORT CS6 ILLUSTRATOR FILES

The developers of Flash professional CS6 are lazy! My computer must be really stupid, because it seems, for a new program, they have just copy pasted code from CS5.5, resulting in an error when ever I try to import illustrator files from CS6 that reads "Illustrator documents saved in versions of illustrator greater than CS5 can not be imported into flash CS5.5" I HAVE BLOODY FLASH CS6 NOT FLASH CS5.5 YOU BLUBBERING BUFFOON!!!! *throws books across room*
How can this problem be solved because it is looking like buying this was a waste of money, as I can't import basic files from illustrator CS6 that I use in my CS6 program which is essential to getting my major work done (which is due on the 12 of August). DON'T YOU DARE SAY BUY CS5!!!!!!!

the only way it helped me was download portable version of adobe illustrator cs5 (copy and paste from portable ai cs5 into flash cs6)

URGENT - Flash CS5 - TLF not working on Combobox

There is NO SUPPORT for TLF and right-to-left writting settings in Flash CS5 for this components: Combobox / List / TextInput
Steps to reproduce:
1.Add combobox component to stage
2.Open properties panel and add in the data provider some Arabic text eg.: العربية
3.Publish and upload Flash page on some server
Actual Results:
The Arabic text is backwards
Expected Results:
To show correctly
TLF and right-to-left writtin support is missing completly for this components: Combobox / TextInput / List.
Please test on a computer where Flash CS5 is not installed, because it shows correctly on that machine and incorrectly on a normal user computer that doesn't have Flash CS5 IDE.
* Persists in any browser.
If anyone knows of a workaround please let me know ASAP !
Many thanks,

The reason the combobox isn't doing R-to-L correctly, is because the component is based on TextField (not TLF). TextField does not have support for R-to-L.
The only component converted to work with TLF in CS 5 was the Scrollbar.
To do what you're wanting, you'll need to modify the component to use TLF text instead. Not having looked at that component, I don't know how large of a task that is, but it's certainly doable.

Illutrator Can Not Handle Texture, why?

Hey Folks, not sure if it's me or something I am doing wrong but it seems to me ever since illustrator cs5, the program has real issues when it comes to handling a vector texture. I get that a vector grunge texture has alot o points and etc, but it's never been this pad. I have a simple simple grunge texture and it freezes illustrator, I have tried various kinds of textures and basically the program can not handle it at all. I have tried on other comps as well but it just seems like there is real issue with ANY kind of texture, even really simple ones. I am really frustrated cause its something that never really used to be an issue.

Have you tried simplifying the grunge with the "Simplify path" option? I use textures quite a bit in CS5. I agree it's not as fast as I'd like.

Unable to publish projects with inserted video - error message The Flash video can not be loaded

I've created a project in Captivate 6 with two slides that have inserted videos in them
Both the videos were created in Captivate 6 by publishing those projects as mp4 videos
They play fine in the previews but when publishing I get the error saying the Flash video can not be loaded for both of those slides and in the output files the area for the video is blank.
I have checked that the videos are not open anywhere else as I saw on a previous post this was the issue but the only place they are in use is in the project I am trying to publish.
Below are my settings and the error message
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Your screenshot indicates you are publishing to a folder on a network drive.
Have you:
Verified whether or not the video file exists at the published folder location? (It should ideally be sitting in the same folder as the SWF that calls it.)
Verified that the folder location is set up as a trusted location in your Flash Global Security settings?

Performance issue is most probably caused by the fact that IE can not handle such amount of requests ? is it ?

Hi,
I'm running web applications and there is performance issue is most probably caused by the fact that IE can not handle such amount of requests that are forwarded to the server at the same time.
Data:
On IE(10) – search variety 11- it takes a long time (about 25 seconds for response) .
in general, the responding time of "search variety" in IE is much longer than Chrome.
IE - see:http://screencast.com/t/kSeT3hC2mRfV
Chrome see:http://screencast.com/t/NYf6fskU
Why? any solution ?

Hi,
without a link to your site (so we can use the same tools mentioned above)... we can only guess.
these are peer to peer support forums... your favorite web search engine will help you to learn about web development.
display the Developer tool console in each browser to view the suppressed error messages.
All modern browsers support the performance api or your can use the Networking tab to view the latency metrics for the site.... commonly you may be using meta directives for caching instead of server headers or you have different settings between browsers
which determine how long resources are cached. Commonly, IE has a different security model to other browsers... ensure that you are using the Default IE security zone settings.... Actions like innerHTML go through a sanitization process to remove script content...
Commonly AJAX calls are made during the onload event...

Flash video can not be loaded

Using Captivate 6, when I make any changes to an already published project that contains flash video, upon republishing I get a pop up stating "The flash video can not be loaded. The output may not be proper." It only happens when I make a change to a previously published project. Every time I encounter this problem, my only fix is to delete each flv and re-insert the video, and republish. Any ideas?

Hi there
You say it's intermittent. The bane of any troubleshooting.
Have you asked your server peeps to get involved?
Cheers... Rick

Captivate 6 Video Issue: "The flash video can not be loaded. The input may not be proper"

I've already published this particular project with multiple videos embedded with no problems in Captivate 6. I had to change one video and went to re-publish the project. Upon completing the publish, I receive an error message on EACH slide that has embedded video:
"The Flash Video Can Not Be Loaded. The Input May Not Be Proper"
There wasn't any issues with the project until changing the one video that needed to swapped out. I also tried publishing this in Captivate 8 to the same results.
Specs:
Windows 7 Pro
Captivate Version 6.1.1.240
Intel Core i5 25-20 CPU @ 2.5 Ghz
4 GB RAM
32-Bit Operating System
If anyone knows why this issue has presented itself and how we can get around it, much would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Jon

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching Adobe Community. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience.
I am a little confused here. Are you getting this error while inserting a FLV video through Insert option or inserting a video through Video > Insert Slide Video or inserting a new slide?
Re-linking means reinserting the video file. If you have already tried reinserting the video file, then have you tried inserting a different video?
Also what operating system you have on your system?
Thanks!

Flash CS5 will not open!

I downloaded adobe cs5 from my school's website and everything downloaded on my mac correctly. But when I go to open up any product (specifically flash cs5),it looks like its about to open but then automatically closes! I don't know what to do! Help!

OS X has two Applications: one in your user folder and the other at the top of the volume. Applications are installed in /Applications, and you should use the user folder for applications that you are going to open in your account only, and not in another one.

Flash CS5.5 - not saving all frames in symbols?

Hi,
We have a problem where our Flash CS5.5 (mac) does not save all of the frames in a symbol? For example, we animate a walk in a symbol, the symbol is a 'grahpic'. We make a keyframe and reference frame 5 in the walk. Save the project. When we re-open the project there is no 'frame 5' - its blank and so the stage shows the symbol referencing nothing!
If anyone can help that would be amazing, its been happening for months and we have yet to find anyone online who has the same problem,
Thanks!
Garth

We're having the same issue on our project. My coworker is using Windows though, but it's selectively not saving all the frames in a graphic on his laptop. It has severely destroyed our progress on this project now and we're livid. I wish I could help, but I'm searching for a solution as well.
He's been saving to his Dropbox account, we're going to see if that has anything to do with it, like it's syncing with an older version of the file somehow.

Flash cs5 swf not running properly in captivate 5

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a flash question or a captivate question so I'm posting it to both forums. I have numerous flash cs5 built swfs inserted into a captivate 5 project. All of them are running fine apart from this one. It runs perfectly outside of captivate but within the captivate swf it goes haywire. It's a very simple fla. The only actionscript involved is a stop action. There is a movie clip that uses a number of classic tweens and then there is a layer containing textual explanations for what's happening in the movie clip. When I run my captivate project the swf does one or other of the following:
a) it runs but the movie clip starts earlier than the text and so they are out of synch
b) the text runs as normal but the movie clip does not run at all
c) it only shows the final frame of the swf and nothing else happens.
As I say, it is a very simple fla and I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what's wrong. I don't seem to be able to attach the fla here, so if anybody thinks they may be able to help please pm me with your email address and I will email you the fla file.
Just to note some of the things I have already considered: the text is all set to classic rather than TLF. The captivate project and the fla both publish as3 at 12fps for flash player 9.
yours hopefully!

Flash CS5 can't save CS4 files

I keep a copy of CS3 around just so I can be productive... CS4 takes 10 to 20 seconds between timeline edits for the screen to un-freeze.
I had hoped CS5 would resolve this because I would like to and need to use the Flash Player 10 classes... But NO!, it is completely useless in a production environment because you can't even save your work without jumping through hoops!!! I work with aproximatly 20 designers and we have thousands of CS3 files that get updated in over 40 live sites. This product is not ready and it is very disappointing that Adobe would release it like this. The only way I can save any of these files is to save as a CS4.

Hi Greg,
Thanks for emailing me your FLA file so we could investigate. It looks like one of your assets is corrupted. This file crashes even in Flash CS4 when I drag sparks.jpg to the stage.
Flash CS5 crashes more quickly because it tries to validate this asset on save but can't because that asset is corrupted. If you remove sparks.jpg from the library, you can save the file in Flash CS5.
Thanks,

Flash CS5 will not export AIR 2.0

I spent a weekend developing an AIR app for a customer using the new Adobe Flash CS5. When I was finally ready to publish, I got this message.
"Error exporting the SWF file. Please see the error(s) in the compiler errors panel."
I am not really sure what to make of this error. I have no error in the compiler errors panel and it does the same even if i try publishing a blank air file. Anyone got an idea of why this is happening?
I am very dissapointed in Adobe. Steve Jobbs was right not to include this garbage on the new ipads and iphones.

CS5 seems to be coughing up lots of errors and crashes nowadays.
If you want Adobe to release some patches fro CS5, though, I'm appealing here and gathering up signatures for a petition. Complain here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/649242.
