Flash Layers, Frames, Keyframes, Objects – Please Help

I would appreciate someone's help! I am working on a class
assignment and currently struggling w / adding objects to layers.
When a new layer is inserted how do you get a blank screen (not a
new scene) on which to add your new objects? Everytime I add a new
layer, I see previous layers w/objects. I need blank screens with
the new layers.

Deb H;
If I follow the question, I suspect you need to review how
layers work
in flash (although it's very similar to other graphic
applications), because
what you seek is not really possible. You can get a blank
stage by working
in a different timeline such as a movie clip, or by adding a
new scene--but
not by simply adding layers (unless you are hiding the
existing content in
that timeline in some way. -Tom Unger

  • Flash Layering Problem in Firefox , Please Help.

    Hi,
    I am having a problem with Firefox and Safari. I am trying to
    place video over an already emdedded flash file. Here is an example
    www.mjmi.com when viewed on IE the layering is fine and you can see
    both flash videos. When you view it in Firefox or safari my video
    with the actors falls to the back of the original flash video.
    I have tried every type of positioning but the video keeps
    falling behind the other one.
    Does anyone have a solution for this? With out having to
    combine the flash files.
    Thanks so much
    here is my code if that is the problem
    <div id="flashAdd" style="position:absolute; left:25px;
    top:98px; z-index:1000">
    <script>myprintln('<OBJECT
    classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" z-index:"0"
    codebase="
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
    width="496" height="300">');
    myprintln('<PARAM NAME=movie
    VALUE="<cfoutput>#Request.MainUrl#</cfoutput>video/home_1.swf">');
    myprintln('<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>');
    myprintln('<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>');
    myprintln('<param name="wmode" value="transparent">');
    myprintln('<param name="menu" value="transparent">');
    myprintln('<EMBED
    src="<cfoutput>#Request.MainUrl#</cfoutput>video/home_1.swf"
    loop=false quality=medium bgcolor=#FFFFFF wmode="transparent"
    width="496" height="300" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    PLUGINSPAGE="
    http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">'); myprintln('</EMBED>');
    myprintln('</OBJECT>');</script>
    </div>

    and if you will ask in order that he to put for top with a
    level of the type:
    _root.creatEmptyMovieClip ("my_mc", 5);
    That will do that his application raises 5 levels, I think
    that it can be a solution, if there is doubt look in for help for
    creatEmptyMovieClip ();

  • Adobe Flash Pro Sound Errors. Please Help.

    I have been working on a kinetic type project for my Electronic Arts II class and an issue with the sound has come up. Every time I go to preview, the work I have done the sound from the song I have been using becomes misaligned. When I go to realign the text to match the lyrics of the song, it seems to work fine. If I preview it all lines up, but when I continue with the project to line up other parts of the animation, the whole thing becomes misaligned again. I have each line of the song separated into different layers and am using motion tweens for movement and to fade the text in and out. I also have the layer containing the song locked to prevent accidental editing. Despite these precautions to prevent accidental rearrangement, the animation never seems to line up for more than two or three playthroughs. This has become a great irritation because the due date is rapidly approaching and because of this error, I have been unable to get very far, and what little work I do have has been ruined. My teacher and I have done what we could to fix it, but have not been able to figure out this problem. Please help me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    if your sound is attached to a timeline, assign its sync property to stream.
    also, set your stage frame rate at the sound's rate and export your sound with the best option selected.

  • FLASH BUILDER 4.7 PROBLEM PLEASE HELP

    Hello,
    So i just ordered the adobe creative cloud service today and downloaded the adobe application manager, installed Flash Builder 4.7 and then preceded to create a flash game.  It had tons of errors with my code so i then just did the simple HelloWorld program and it ran fine.  But as soon as i tried to type in more complex code like (import flash.display.Loader) it has a yellow triangle by this statement of code saying that (import flash.display.Loader is not used locally).  I have had this problem with the rest of my code also.  Please help!!!  I have already tried to contact adobe technical services but they said they couldn't help me because I had the creative cloud.  I am in desperate need of help!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks,
    DarkRue97

    Flash Builder 4.7 is warning about unused imports largely to help you clean up your code. These warnings may also be useful if you have made a typo in the qualified name. An unused import, however, should not stop you from building your application.
    If you're building a Flex application, then you should use a Flex project. Flex projects use the Flex SDK 4.6 already included in Flash Builder 4.7. Unless you're trying to customize or update the SDK for a specific reason, you shouldn't need to add a new Flex SDK if you're just starting out to explore developing a Flex application.
    Once you start writing more complicated applications or games that take advantage of the latest AIR features, you can update the Flex SDK with a later version of AIR by applying the updated AIR SDK overlay for Flex zip distribution manually. I would wait until you're more familiar with Flash Builder 4.7 and Flex projects before trying to upgrade an SDK. The following like describes the process:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/how-overlay-air-sdk-flex-sdk.html
    If you're doing pure-ActionScript development, you can use an ActionScript project. These projects use the new compiler, ASC 2.0. In such a project, you cannot use Flex concepts, like MXML or CSS. Some Flex-specific metadata extensions in AS3 are also not supported. Just pure-AS3.

  • Flashing Pixels (Bad Video) Apple please help!

    I read another topic about this (which has been archived without being answered) POST: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1174473
    I have these incessant flashing Green/blue pixels in windows through boot camp which makes it intolerable to use. It does this with the built in display but not with the extended display which I use on 270 degree orientation so I can't use that instead.
    Seems to be a huge number of people in that post with this complaint and my situation fits it exactly. It used to work fine and at some point (not sure which update exactly due to infrequent use at the time) it went bad. Nothing I do will fix it. I've even wiped the HD, repartitioned, reinstalled windows on boot camp and then restored my OSX with Time Machine... Allot of hassle for no results. Only saving grace was Time Machine with the OSX side of that effort.
    I want to know why apple refuse to even comment on this and maybe offer some thoughts on this? Maybe a fix even? Instead of locking the topic and shutting us up instead of working with us. What's next? A cover up to hide the fact? Maybe Apple should just delete the complaints from the support forums.
    Apple, please help, this is beyond tolerable and I need boot camp for a couple of Windows Only apps. If I had a choice I would defiantly use OSX versions.
    Just a side not. When I wiped the HD and went to reinstall form the backup the OSX installer recognized the destination and source but refused to run the restoration. I shut the whole thing down and started again and it worked fine.
    Apple please help!

    I'm having the same problem, I thought that Leopard's Boot Camp would fix it but it didn't work.

  • JS CS5.5-Moving Selected Objects-Please Help!!

    Hello,
    I have a scritpt that will apply a certain object style to the selected items in the document. I am trying to add a "move" to this scirpt. I would like every item selected in the document to move down .125 inches. I know this is much simpler than I think it is, I've always had trouble with bounds in scripts. If anyone could please help me with this, I'd greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks for your time,
    Danny

    I suppose if I was going to be picky, I should have provided my code initially, rather than waiting for csm_phil and then posting something else. Anyhow, I think it is better to use:
    var
        i,
      savedUnits = app.scriptPreferences.measurementUnit;
    try {
      app.scriptPreferences.measurementUnit =
          MeasurementUnits.INCHES;
      for (i = 0; i < app.selection.length; i++){
          app.selection[i].move(undefined, [0, +.125]);
    } finally {
      app.scriptPreference.measurementUnit = savedUnits;
    This changes the scriptPreferences, not the viewPreferences, which means that even if you screw up and don't set it back, it does not affect the user. It also means it is one variable to change and not two. We take care to save the units and set them back, so other scripts and users are not affected.  We even use a try/finally block so that if an error condition is thrown by the move, we reset the measurement unit afterwards anyhow.
    Lastly, unlike csm_phil, I don't cancel the selection at the end. I didn't see Danny asking for that and I don't think it's what you would want.

  • Unable to view flash videos in Firefox. Please help.

    Hi there,
    I've tried all the troubleshooting from Firefox's troubleshooting guide to no avail.
    I'm unable to view videos that require flash.
    I can watch YouTube, but I have to enable flash first.
    This has never happened before, but now it won't go away.
    System: Windows 7 (64-bit)
    Adobe Flash version: 16.0.0.287
    Browser: Firefox 35
    An example of videos that I used to be able to watch were from the Arrow and, ironically, The Flash TV shows.
    Now this is the error I receive:
    CWTV requires Flash Player 10.2.0 or higher.
    Arrow Video - The Climb | Watch Online Free
    Please help!
    Best regards,
    JM.

  • Array of CreditCard objects - PLEASE HELP!

    My situation is this: I need to create an array of CreditCard objects. The problem is that when I try to invoke the methods getName, getNumber, or getLimit, the compiler recognizes the array (cardholders) as a variable.
    My coding is this.
    for(int i=0;fileInput.hasNext();i++)
         CreditCard[] cardholders = new CreditCard[records];
         int cardNum = Integer.parseInt(fileInput.next());
         String cardName = fileInput.nextLine();
         double cardLimit = Double.parseDouble(fileInput.nextLine());
         cardholders[i] = new CreditCard(cardNum, cardName, cardLimit);
    But when I try to access a CreditCard object, through cardholders[4] (for example), the error cannot find symbol appears. PLEASE HELP ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY.
    THANKS

    You are lacking basic Java knowledge, micksabox. The following tutorial is on Arrays in Java. The one after on the Java Collections Framework, you might want to learn about as the better solution for working with sets and lists of objects in Java.

  • Shockwave Flash Player error since April please help

    Hello,
    Can anyone please help me with Adobe Shockwave Flash Player?   Then crash...to the sad robot face. It's been happening since April at least 45 times so far. I feel I need to finding my own Adobe Crash Dummy. It doesn't matter which game I am playing; whether it's FarmVille from the Facebook website or CityVille from the Zynga website I just want it fixed please. Any help would be so appreciated. Here is the error that I keep getting. Then the crash error. I have uninstalled Adobe SW Flash Player and downloaded the updated version...which I already had, but when I go to test my version...nothing is moving on the screen to verify your installation is complete.
    Thank you so very much.

  • Flash player will not install please help.

    I am running IE and windows 8. flash works fine for chrome and any other web browser I use. The program I use for work speficially uses IE for maps and they will not load. I have unistalled and tried reinstalling, i tried to use it before when it was already installed on my computer, ive changed all the settings in internet options to what the help page says.  When i try to reinstall at the get.adobe all i get is a the page with the adobe logo,  but where it should have the doanload button and all the information it is just white... please help i need to get this solved before monday.

    Flash Player for IE in WIndows 8 is modified and embedded in the browser by Microsoft. You cannot update it or reinstall it from here... ONLY through Windows Update. There's a Microsoft KB update installed that prevents any modification outside of Windows Update for the ActiveX plugin in WIndows 8 or 8.1.
    Firefox, Opera and Safari use a standard Flash Player plugin. Chrome (like IE) has its own porprietary build (called "PepperFlash"), which is modified and embedded in the browser by Google. It functions independently of the Standard or ActiveX plugins.
    The problem you're seeing ISN'T a Flash Player problem. It's a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released it. The pages (or in this case the app) can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    Adobe can't fix this because Internet Explorer 11 isn't their product and the problem is in the browser itself, not the plugin.
