Help! Can't add action to anything in flash CS4?

As the title says, i can't seem to add any action to any object,clip or button. Can anyone help me with this?

Sorry I took such a long time to reply. I dont think the problem is with the file because i tried opening a old file which was working fine and then couldnt add actions to anything. I also tried making a new flash project which similarly does not work.

Can I add Action button on each page of my pdf document

I have created many power point slides with an action button on each slide that allows the user to click to display a video clip.   I would like to create a pdf document of this and replace each of my action button in ppt with an action button that works in Acrobat.
I noticed that action buttons can be added to forms, but I want to be able to add an Action Button on each of my ppt slides to start playing a video clip (each slide will have a different video).
I would like to do this using any coding method (i.e. Javascript, VBA, C , etc).   I think acrobat uses Javascript.
The reason, is that I want to display my power point slides on an IPad and they don't support hyperlink in power point.   I believe IPad does suppport the full acrobat capabilities.
Can this be done ??
Any suggestions where to start ??
Thank You,
G

NO problem creating the buttons and then playing this back in Acrobat. Works great.
However, unfortunately, none of the PDF viewers for the iPad support playing movies.   So playing it there won't work :(.

How can we create such navigation buttons using Flash CS4?

Hi,
How can we create such navigation buttons using Flash CS4 is in the following website? Please help me with any such tutorial to make my custom navigation bar/buttons.

Thanks.

While the Note 4 is a reasonably large device it still falls into the phone layout bucket. We need this layout to function on very small screens some as low as 320 pixels high and 240 pixels wide. These sorts of devices don't have the space for a full toolbar.

[GNOME] Can't add action to nautilus-actions

Hi,
I recently installed nautilus-actions, the problem is when I launch nautilus actions config via System -> Preferences I can't add new actions.
Nothing about nautilus-actions in the right-click neither.
Here is the screenshot:
Thanks for your help !

You'll be relieved to discover that it still is simple; it's
just that
you have options now. :) Finding the approach that works for
you will
depend on the version of ActionScript you're using, and your
comfort level
with more recent ActionScript workflows.
The shortest, quickest answer for you is probably to
configure your FLA
for ActionScript 2.0 or 1.0, both of which support direct
attachment of
code. Use File > Publish Settings > Flash to change
your AS version. (In
Flash CS3 and CS4, you also have an option between AS3 and
AS2 when you
create a new FLA.) The "trick" here is simply that
ActionScript 3.0 does
not support direct attachment of code.
If you want to try the new way, you'll have to put your code
in a
keyframe, rather than on the button itself. This approach
requires that you
give your button(s) an instance name, so that Flash knows
which object(s)
you mean. Here's a quick example, from a slightly dated (but
still useful)

How can I add action listener to a cell or row in a table?

hi there
I need to be able to click on one cell or one row in a table, and perform some action, like openning a dialog or something. how can i add listener?

// See How to Use Tables in tutorial. You will get one idea about Table Renderer and Editors.
// If u understand the concept, ur problem is very easy to solve by adding Editor to your column.
"You can think of the renderer as a configurable ink stamp that the table uses to stamp appropriately formatted data onto each cell. When the user starts to edit a cell's data, a cell editor takes over the cell, controlling the cell's editing behavior.
Here, While tabing thru the table row, default all cell editors are JLabels. (Not editables)
So u can make it those cells are editable JTextFields or JComboBoxes based on the column while tabbing. And you can add Listeners to that fields too. So those editable fields are called Editor Components.
// see javax.swing.DefaultCellEditor class for more description
Here i am adding my own JTextField editor to 3rd column of a table by using
mytable.getColumnModel().getColumn(2).setCellEditor(editor );
Here editor is a obj of below class. (Not complete..class)
public class JbuiEditor extends DefaultCellEditor implements // any listener {
public JbuiEditor(JTextField tField) {
super(tField);
setClickCountToStart(1);
tField.addFocusListener(this);
this.editorComponent = tField;
public Component getComponent(){
     return editorComponent;
public Component getTreeCellEditorComponent(JTree tree, Object value,
                              boolean isSelected,
                              boolean expanded,
                              boolean leaf, int row) {
     String StringValue = tree.convertValueToText(value, isSelected,
                         expanded, leaf, row, false);
     delegate.setValue(stringValue);
     return editorComponent;
public Object getCellEditorValue() {
return super.getCellEditorValue();
public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected,int row, int column) {
super.getTableCellEditorComponent(table,value,isSelected,row,column);
((JTextField)editorComponent).setText(value.toString());
//Here u can add any type of listener to this Editor component.like..
((JTextField)editorComponent).addActionListener(..);
((JTextField)editorComponent).addFocusListener(..);
return editorComponent;
Hope gives some idea.

Can you add actions to the Flash Media Player?

I have 2 wmv files. One is the audio and one is the video. I
don't own any software that combines both formats maintaining
perfect video quality. If I import the video wmv file into Flash
(converting it first with the Flash video encoder) is there any way
I can create an action that plays and pauses a seperate audio track
in the project file (when hitting the button in the Flash media
player). ??
Thanks

look into the Sound class.

How can I use Flash_Slideshow.SWF in my Flash CS4 document?

Hi,
I have downloaded a nice Flash Slide show file (.SWF) and would like to use in my Flash CS4 document without any modification (as it is). How can I use it? There is no .Fla file this Slide Show. It just works using xml file.
Please do help.

Hi,
You need to load a .swf file in your flash document using the loader class. I'm assuming you are using the AS3. Please click on the below link which helps you to use the loader class.

The old-is-gold method: Uninstall the older version, reinstall the newer version.
Alternatively (quicker and happy version),
1. Go to Preferences.
2. Select Language from the left side.
3. Look for "Application Language" dropdown.
4. Select "Choose at application startup".
5. Restart Reader.

How can I mask on flv file in flash cs4?

Hi,
I am new to Flash CS4. I saw one video on how to use flv file in flash and mask it. It is working fine when I am using the following option while importing a video file to flash:
Load external video with playback component
But when I tried with the following option it doesn't show the background, it shows only movie which is playing nicely. But not the background which has a bill board.
Embed FLV in SWF and play in timeline
It seems the mask is not working with this option.
How to solve this problem? Please help.
Actually it should be like the above.
But when I am using the option Embed FLV in SWF and play in timeline while importing the flv video, getting the result like below: It is not showing the Bill board as above.
See the layers created:

Can't change string variable values in Flash CS4 Debugger

I'm using the Flash CS4 debugger, and while I can change numeric variable values in the Variables panel, I can't change string variable values. The only characters the fields accept are the numbers 1-9 and the characters "d" and "j".
I can paste strings into the value fields, but that's a bit of a pain. I've tried this on a couple of different Flash CS4 installations and get the same results.
Does anyone know if it's possible to change string values in the Variables panel of the Flash CS4 Debugger?

How can I NOT let collision happen in Flash CS4(AS3)?

I have been playing with collisions for quite a while, but cannot seem to get it just the way i want it to be.
I made a new rectangle into a Movie Clip, with an instance name : "block_mc"
I made a sphere into a Movie Clip, with an instance name : "ball_mc"
I made the sphere(ball_mc) movable with the arrow keys.(see post:http://forums.adobe.com/thread/491457?tstart=0 )
Now I wanted to try and make the sphere(ball_mc) stop moving so it wont hit the rectangle(block_mc), so that the rectangle(block_mc) would act like a solid object.
Meaning the sphere(ball_mc) would not be able to touch the rectangle(block_mc). It would act like a wall.
Now my problem is I don't know if there is a way of not letting objects collide?
I tried the ".hitTestObject()" but that did not work for me.
~ Thanks for Help and Advice~

I apologize, for this confusing long question, I simply ment to ask:
Is there a way Flash CS4(AS3.0) will not let Objects on stage collide?
~Thank you for any Tips, Advice and Help~

Help Can not add music to library

When i go to file- add file to library- and select the file(playlist) from windows media play it doesnt do anything no error message or anything. I am not good with computers so i need help. All the songs are mp3's. I dont know what to do.

When i go to file- add file to library- and select the file(playlist) from windows media play
Make sure that you are adding actual files - not a windows media player 'playlist'.
1. Locate where you store the music files that you want (on your computer)
2. Select the file(s) or album folder
3. Move the file(s) to your iTunes library on your computer (usually: C: My Documents/My Music/iTunes/iTunes Music)
4. In iTunes: File > Add File to library ....Or Add Folder to library > locate the files, select them and add.
Note: It's best to chose a Media Player that you fancy the most to handle your media. If you use two media players to play the same files - then it may cause a conflict between them resulting in duplicate files, files that are not found and automatic renaming of files etc.
Good luck
