Flash integration

How can I integrate a flash movie onto a jsp (opening page) using Enterprise 8.

As far as I understand, you have to put the swf file somewhere in the web tree and then reference it from the JSP source as you would normally do from an HTML page.

flash-integration.swc is no longer built in to utilities.swc. It is now it's own standalone swc that needs to be packaged up as part of the SDK. This is so Flash Builder can find the source code for the swc.
I'm also making some other changes for OSMF. Jim is going to make the rest of them to support fat-swcs.

Fireworks/Flash Integration Not Useful

I’ve begun experimenting with Fireworks and the vaunted
integration between FW & Flash seems to be mostly hype.
(I’m speaking of the big deal Adobe makes about it in the CS3
Video Workshop.) So far I’m finding that the limitations of
what can be transported through round-trips between the two apps
render the purported integration largely useless.
Some of the most useful effects, like those commonly applied
in the provided Styles, don’t survive the import into Flash.
E.g., for Plastic Button 009 the Hue/Saturation filter
doesn’t make it into Flash. Without the HS filter, you
don’t get any color in Flash.
And even when the needed visual properties do make it intact,
the update mechanism doesn’t seem to work. For example, I
created a new FW file, drew a rounded rectangle and applied the
Chrome Reflective 006 Style and saved the file. I imported it into
the Flash library choosing the maintain appearance options. I then
went back into FW and applied the Chrome Misc 003 style and saved.
Then, in Flash I right-clicked on the bitmap in the library and
chose Update but when I clicked the Update button it just said 0 of
1 items updated and displayed a little question mark. I’ve
had similar problems importing PSD files/layers into Flash and
trying to update.
I tried another test, this time choosing the “keep all
paths editable” option when importing into Flash. However,
this lost some of the desired effects and didn’t even provide
the option to update (grayed out).
So, as far as I can tell, I have to create each image as a
separate file in FW and then just import it as a regular GIF or
JPEG into Flash. FW can still be useful as it provides some nice
styles, gradients, textures and other features that can help in
creating web graphics. But integration with Flash seems to be all
but non-existent. Am I missing something??
David Salahi

I love Fireworks + Flash integration, it's what originally
got me using Fireworks, actually. But there are some bumps that you
need to be familiar with, as you've found. It also takes some
understanding of the Flash platform and how it differs from the
freedoms you get in Fireworks, so hopefully I can help there:
Filters - Yep, Flash only supports a small subset of filters.
This might change in the future with the announcement of
Hydra/Pixel
Bender, which is really exciting, but for now you are stuck
with only a few filters in Flash. Open up Flash and get familiar
with them. And be glad we aren't having this conversation a few
version ago, when there were no filters at all! Once you are
familiar with the filters and blendmodes that Flash has, when you
are working in Fireworks and intend to go to Flash, remember what
filters you can use. The rest will have to be avoided or flattened
before importing into Flash. Yes, it's technology limiting your
creative freedom, I hate that, but if you understand the limits you
can still push it very far. BTW, Hue/Saturation actually does make
it from FW to FL for me.
The Update option is really intended for Bitmaps linked to an
external bitmap image file, like JPGs or GIFs. When you went to
update your bitmap you probably noticed that the Path field was
blank -- this is because Flash doesn't have it linked to an image
file, and it can't pull it out of a PNG source file. That would be
a really nice feature, and one I've requested:
http://adobe.com/go/wish/
When you choose "keep all paths editable" then all filters
and effects you used which are not supported in Flash are stripped
out. There are other features which Fireworks has that Flash does
not, like pattern/texture fills, some of the gradients, etc. They
all don't exist in Flash so they don't come through. Again this all
comes back to understanding what Flash can do, and making sure your
Fireworks design is compatible.
Sounds like you had a jarring experience trying to integrate
between FW and Flash, but the problem is understanding the huge
difference between what you get on Flash's canvas and Firework's
canvas. Flash is generally limited. The reason Flash is limited is
because it's a runtime canvas optimized for web. When you make
something in Fireworks you have unlimited freedom because in the
end you'll just export to a static pixel image. But in Flash, you
are dealing with a whole different beast -- interaction. The Flash
canvas is rendered at runtime... you can think of the Flash Player
as fulfilling the role of Fireworks running in the browser, so of
course it has to be in a much smaller scale.
Anyway, once you get used to how Flash works and how that
differs from Fireworks, integration will make a lot more sense. The
way you describe of exporting each graphic/layer as a separate JPG
and importing is basically the way it used to have to be done with
Photoshop, but I definitely recommend trying to get familiar with
how Flash works and getting a hang of the design to import process
of Fireworks to Flash.
In case it helps, here's my workflow of Fireworks to Flash (I
create a lot of Flash content so this is very battle tested for
me):
1) Design in Fireworks, with both knowledge of what Flash can
do, and a bit of reckless abandon because I'm a designer, I'll make
it look the way I want even if it takes extra work in Flash ;)
2) Once the design is final, I create a duplicate Fireworks
page
3) I go through my design and make it as Flash compatible as
possible. This means flattening anything that needs to be
flattened, sometimes converting text to paths, redoing some
graphics in vector, etc
4) Import into Flash
5) Cleanup anything that didn't come through right. At this
point it's just small stuff, like dotted strokes come through
solid, so I have to make them dotted again
6) Animate or rig up with ActionScript
7) For small changes, I make my change in Fireworks, then I
copy/paste only the changed elements back into Flash and replace
them
Hope that helps. Good luck!

New flash integration

How does Flash currently integrate with Compressor and FCP as an export option? Will this change with the new Compressor/FCP and the new CS3 Flash?
I notice Apple's new Compressor website specifically mentions Episode integration for wmv and Flash...

presently you must use a 3rd party app to convert to flv., but yes, the new update does appear to allow conversion to flv. yeah!
No, to convert to any of the other non-Apple codecs from within Compressor 3, you'll need the Episode Pro plug-in from Telestream. Or, if you only need .flv conversion, Flash CS3 installed on your system.
In this regard, little has changed from Compressor 2.x. Well, except maybe for the fact that Apple is mentioning exporting from within Compressor in it's marketing materials...

Fireworks, dreamweaver, flash integration

I'm taking beginning photoshop and flash classes online and at a local college and have adobe master collection CS4. I'm still not sure whether to build my pro musician website (lots of music) in Flash or Dreamweaver with Flash or use Fireworks as the foundation... Confused... Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Use graphics apps to create graphics only.
Use DW to build your web pages - HTML and CSS code.
Insert Flash media into HTML pages when needed. Provide alternate content for devices that don't support Flash.
Flash only sites are not user- and search engine friendly, also not supported by many devices.
Have a look at this 2-part tutorial:

Flash integration with Learning Management System

Has anyone had any experience hooking Flash up with a
learning management system? I'm using Zinc right now but I'm
wondering what hooks I would need to communicate with any eLMS. Any
help or suggestions would be appreciated

If you Google 'Flash SCORM' you should find a good deal of
info.

Flash integration in Portal?

I have a flash file called in a Publisher portlet which accesses certain parts of my code (webservices) in my remote server (WebLogic) and also portal js / styles in the image server. The flash file is located in the Imageserver. Now, since there is inter-domain communication, Flash needs a cross-domain.xml file to be served from the root of all the servers it tries to access. Could anyone tell me where all I need to place this XML? As yet, i have put it in the imageserver and weblogic (remote server) roots but this is not making things work.
Flash considers a domain as specific for a server and port. For e.g., myhost:7001 is a different domain from myhost:80. I have a feeling that since portal works on the gateway concept, I just need to put the crossdomain.xml in just one location. Am I missing anything here?
Edited by: ALUIuser on 24-Feb-2009 07:14

I take it that if you have port 7001 this means you are using weblogic. If for instance you have a apache server serving all your images, then you just need to make a new entry in apache for a default root directory.
I know some people use the apache weblogic plugin which tunnels requests from port 80 to port 7001 in weblogic. So this is where your problem is.

Newbie Flash integration question, for video gallery

Well I'm a video editor not a web designer, but I get the basic concepts. Am using Dreamweaver CS4 and Flash CS3 and I have my head around CSS based design and have also managed to get my head around designing an interactive video gallery in Flash.
I want a HTML based site for web search indexing reasons but I need a video gallery that is broken up into sections, (eg. corporate, public sector, Arts... you get the idea). If I design a standard web site with navigation bars, do I include three or more categories (e.g., corporate etc) on the main site navigation bar and incorporate separate flash files on each page to show the relevant content for that category or do I include just a general video button on the web site's navigation bar and then navigate to the individual categories within the Flash movie file itself. The later seems the most logical, but do you experienced web designers find that adding another layer of navigation confuses the end user? Is there a way maybe of addressing individual sections of the Flash movie from HTML buttons? What is the best logic to solve this problem and then I can work on a solution?
Lastly, and I'm sorry for the long post, my site will be very basic so do I really need to incorporate Flash at all; can I address multiple external .flv movies with various buttons within Dreamweaver.

Is there a way maybe of addressing individual sections of the Flash
movie from HTML buttons?
No.
Think of it this way:
Your site has a Nav menu that leads to individual html pages.
Each page contains a Flash Video Player with a playlist.
The Playlist contains links to all the FLV clips relating to this page's topic.
Notice I said clips. Don't try to use one long playing video on the web.

WWD FLV Player is pretty nice. It's compact, easy to set-up.
Read the installation.html that comes with it.

Flash integration on Joomla Website

Are there any really important things I need to know when
building a Flash
header for a Joomla website? Will the header need to be
scalable? Can I
use bitmaps? Are there any restrictions when developing for a
Joomla site
like AS2 only?

there are no restrictions when building a Flash header

Flex - Flash Integration

Hi,
I am working on a Flex project that loads dynamicaly a swf
file (flash 8 / actionscript 2). I need Flex listening events
dispatrched from flash.
Is that posible?
I read about the LocalConnection class but this looks like is
used to communicate diferent swf files in the same html documments.
Any ideas will be very apreciated.
tks,

LocalConnection is the way to go. It is for SWF-to-SWF
communication, but ActionScript 2 SWFs loaded into Flash Player 9
occupy a different virtual space than ActionScript 3 SWFs. So you
need LocalConnectiton to get them talking.
If possible, upgrade to Flash CS3 and you'll have
ActionScript 3 SWFs which can be loaded into the same virtual
space.
See my blog for details (search LocalConnection):
