Flash template help for a Flash Novice

I purchased a template website that has a flash banner which rotates three photos.  I was able to get my own photos into the flash but I don't know how to have each photo be a different hyper link.  Also the flash template has a next and previous button to cycle through the photos but I would like the photos to move automatically but again don't know how to do that.  I'm a complete novice to Flash.
I'm working with Flash CS4, Dreamweaver CS4 and Photoshop CS4.
Please any help would be great.
Thank you
Al Guzman

Hi
You could use tweening or a timer to do what you want...
But since you're a complete novice, it's hard to advice you on how to
do it...What I can advice you to do, is the following:
1. Keep a backup of your original fla file..NEVER work on the original.
2. Post the code here..One have to be a psychic to guide you without some
    code or at least a detailed explanation.
We know, that the pictures are shifted using buttons:
Something like this perhaps (Most likely):
forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,someNextImageFunction);
function someForwardFunction(event:Event):void
     //Here we shft to next image
Previous_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,somePreviousImageFunction);
function somePreviousImageFunction(event:Event):void
     //Here we shft to previous image
Copy/Paste the code located inside the FLA file and help will come..
Without the code..This could be a reeeeaaalll lengthy correspondance.
Best regards
Peter

  • Help for a total novice - password

    Hello, New here and would greatly appreciate any help. Have a WRT160NL at home. It works great. I now recently acquired an Ipad for my job and am attempting to use it at home as well. The Ipad finds the network ok. I click on it and it asks for a password. Unfortunately I have lost the sheet of paper I wrote the password on - very frustrating!  How can I recover the password?
    Please don't assume that any help you might give me is something I already know!
    Thanks so much!

    You can get the wireless password of your network on the interface/configuration page of the router. The link below will guide you on how you could access it and where to go on the interface to get the password.

  • HT4291 I just bought a used iPod touch that was held out as 2d generation.  Turns out it is not.  My problem is that I cannot reach the iStore or get more episodes for my podcasts when I am using wifi.  Any help for a technical novice?

    I purchased a used iPod touch advertised as 2d generation.  I later found that it is first generation.  I can use the device for my limited purposes but only when connected to my desktop.  For some reason that I can't figure out, I am unable to download "more episodes" for my podcasts or otherwise connect to the iStore when using my wifi connection.  Can anyone provide a fix for this problem. Note that my technical skill level is about 3 on a scale of 10.

    Does Safari work?
    Does the iPod see the networks?

  • Flash Site Template Help With Text

    So I downloaded a flash template to use for my website... all I need are some editing of the texts, pictures, and some of those links. Here is the template:
    http://www.templatemonster.com/flash-templates/24451.html
    My problem is I'm completely NEW at flash. I used to use FrongPage 2003 for my webdesign but I wanna use this for my new website (since it looks a lot better!) How do I edit the text fields? I can only seem to move the bar along the timeline to watch the animation, and see all the layers and item properties that none have anything with the text in them. And also the images as well, if I need to do anything special with those (within template link above you'll see they flash white for a second) and the main logo has some animation there. I have all the fonts required but I don't know if I also have to make the logo with those special white flashy lines like a GIF animator or if that's just some special affect within the template itself.
    Now due to legal notices specified by the site I can't share the template with you but I'll attempt to answer any and all questions i can to see if I can get this all figured out so I can begin adding my own content to the site. Thanks in advance.

    Doesn't look like there's an xml file for the text. Reading the template help index, and its saying some text might have complex coding for special effects and that I'd have to edit by the Library or something, so I'll try using that reference for now. I appreciate the help and I may come back if this can't help me lol
    EDIT:   It says I'm missing the font file "tahoma" mapped to _sans    ....??  I have tahoma... as well as the main title logo isn't appearing in the .fla file anymore even though I got the correct font. I'm confused >.<
    Edit 2: As well I get this a lot on many different areas:
    Forms Component - Version 0.81
    Couldn't load configuration.

    Problems setting up my TC. Have just bought new iMac(OS 10.6.8) and  TC. I tried to set it up. iMac cannot find it. I have tried direct connection with an ethernet cable to Mac or direct to my wireless router but nothing. Just a flashing orange light. Help for a simpleton please. Have tried reseting TC, but to no avail.

    Just updated from 10.6.7 ---> 10.6.8 and had the same issue. Despite having done a clean install from 10.6 and got everything back off my TC, now Time Machine can't find it!
    Green light is on, ethernet cable conected, network CP says its conected but nothing. Airport Utility can't find it. Hit reset button, Orange flashing light but still no show in Airport Utility.
    But I know its there, as rebooting from 10.6 SL disk shows the backups are still ok?
    Hmm, ideas anyone?

  • Need help for flash builder

    i need help for flash builder 4 and papervison 3d. I need to create a slider with it ranges of value from 10 to 50 to adjust the camera values for the camera.fov and also need to create it for the yaw of the object from 0 to 360. I try to look for any slider event and classes in this program but cant find any, btw, i need to use the AS only project file.
    here is my codes:
    can you please tell me how i should modify the codes?
    package
        import flash.display.BitmapData;
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.events.Event;
        import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapFileMaterial;
        import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapMaterial;
        import org.papervision3d.objects.primitives.Sphere;
        import org.papervision3d.view.BasicView;
        [SWF (width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="0x000000",frameRate="30")]
        public class EarthBitmap extends BasicView
            private var sphere:Sphere;
            public function EarthBitmap()
                super(800 , 600);
                var earthmaterial:BitmapFileMaterial = new BitmapFileMaterial("../assets/Earth.jpg");
                sphere = new Sphere(earthmaterial,100,20,18);
                camera.fov = 25;
                scene.addChild(sphere);
                addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateSphere);
            public function rotateSphere(evt:Event):void
                sphere.yaw(0.2);
                singleRender();

    Turn the click handler into a full on separate function. Then store all the views in an array and use Math.rand() to randomly choose one.
    Something like this:
    <fx:Script>
         <![CDATA[
              var questionsArray:Array = {question2,question3,question5,questionRed,questionGeography};
              function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent){
                   var randomProblem:int = Math.floor(Math.random()*(questionsArray.length));     //generates a random integer between 0 and the total number of questions in the array (arrays are 0-based)
                   navigator.pushView(questionsArray[randomProblem]);
         ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <s:Button id="randomProblemButton" label="Next Problem" click="buttonClickHandler(event)" />
    Haven't tested that, but something along that line should work

  • I Need Help for the popup message every time I go to safari: "Warning! Old version of Adobe Flash Player detected. Please download new version."???

    I Need Help for the popup message every time I go to safari: "Warning! Old version of Adobe Flash Player detected. Please download new version."???

    If you are talking about Safari on the iPad, there is no version of Adobe Flash for iOS and there never has been. Clear Safari, close the app and reset the iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If you are talking about Safari on your Mac, you are in the wrong forum. But I would still clear the cache, quit Safari and restart the Mac.

  • Website template help needed

    Hello group,
    I am hoping someone is willing to take the time to help a new
    Flash user. I have a website template I need to customize and get
    rid of all the generic text and pictures but I am not sure the
    easiest way. I am sure I am going about it the hardest way possible
    without much luck. I have all the .fla files and the site works
    fine in it's generic form. I have figured out how to update just an
    ordinary picture but I can't figure out how to change the picture
    of a library bitmap when it has a background. I can replace the
    entire thing but I want to keep the background image the picture is
    on. It is a custom shape, color etc. designed just for this site. I
    looked for just an instance of the picture but it only appears in a
    bitmap combined with the background as far as I can tell. I do have
    the .PSD files and I am pretty sure I can do it that way but I am
    not sure if Photoshops "publish for web" will give me my flash site
    or just an HTML version. I am sure there is something I am
    overlooking. Any help for a newbie would be greatly
    appreciated.

    The photos are taken from a XML file. Open the XML file flashmo_247_photo_list' in dreamweaver and look at the code it'll be easy to fiqure out if you have ever done any sort of HTML coding.
    Just incase you have'nt look for Example below taken from the xml file which was provided with the .fla file
    "<photo>
      <thumbnail>s_photo_003.jpg</thumbnail> Change the image name for a thumbnail here  i.e. directoryname/imagename.png etc
    <filename>photo_003.jpg</filename> Change the image name for a the large image here  i.e. directoryname/imagename.png etc
      <tooltip>Photo Title 03</tooltip>  
    <description><![CDATA[<p class="subtitle">Photo Title 03 goes here</p><p>In velit urna, <u>convallis id</u>, pharetra in, iaculis sit amet, mi. Praesent consectetur imperdiet mauris. Suspendisse at pede vel lorem pulvinar laoreet. Etiam et neque. Donec dapibus viverra est.</p><p><span class="note">This text is dynamically loaded from the external XML file. This textfield supports HTML and CSS.</span></p>]]></description> Here you have the option to have a discription about the image i usually just have the name of the image.

  • Already have wireless network, need help for set up of time capsule for wired backup only.

    Hello all -
    I have a time capsule that plugs into wall and used a wireless network to back up computer.  It would always mess up internet afterwards so I would unplug the time capsule and reset internet until the next back up.  my time capsule now will not link into my computer. It just flashes amber.  Spoke with apple and was told to come on here and ask for help for setting up time capsule for a wired backup only and to mention that I have a wireless network.
    Hope any of this makes sense.
    Thank You!!

    Spoke with apple and was told to come on here and ask for help
    Really?  The paid professionals at Apple told you to post on a forum where users.....just like you....are trying to answer questions?  We'll try to help, though.
    For starters, please tell us the make and model of the modem/router that you have now that is providing your wireless network.

  • Where can I find detailed, systematic HELP for advanced topics relating to Thunderbird?

    In moving from XP to Windows 7, I opted for Thunderbird as email client in order to bypass Microsoft's hyper-intrusive Windows Live Mail (I used Outlook Express for years).
    I have a very complicated email structure, and it's taken me weeks (seriously) to learn how to replicate it in TBird. Now I'm trying to customize TBird further, but none of the TBird articles/forum Q&A's/Google searches address my questions.
    There is no live tech support for TBird, and I'm just about ready to leave it for good. However -- one last effort: where can I find detailed, systematic HELP for advanced topics relating to Thunderbird?
    Thanks.

    I am no expert, but I don't know of any authoritative reference as to what elements of HTML and CSS are supported in Thunderbird. However, as I believe you appreciate, it's more than just what Thunderbird supports, but one must also think about what is likely to work in other email clients. Keep it simple. Avoid ancient deprecated tags that other email clients may not support, and for similar reasons, avoid cutting edge technology. Remember that recipients using tablets or smartphones won't appreciate large fancy email documents.
    The only thing ''guaranteed'' to work in email is plain text. ;-)
    If you haven't already discovered it, the Stationery add-on is designed specifically to support OE stationery in Thunderbird. Your existing stationery may "just work" in this add-on. It makes switching between various stationery templates much easier, but I'm not confident that it will affect interpretation of your CSS or HTML coding.
    Your code is at least clean and minimal. Most times my involvement with troublesome templates and signatures centres on the horrible bloat and mso custom code generated by Word or Outlook.
    Having said that, you and I are mortal enemies, as I don't have much patience with what you aspire to achieve. I specifically don't like background images, nor being obliged to suffer other folks' bizarre choice of typefaces and colours (but your simple 12pt black Tahoma is quite inoffensive. ;-) ) I'm of an age where my tolerance and eyesight are easily offended.
    Nonetheless, I'm intrigued by how to parse the tag for the background image, as it doesn't look like a legitimate pathname to a graphics file. Does the background image actually appear as required?

Maybe you are looking for
