Help with a flash problem

I am using a flash tutorial to custom make the effect for my own site (and to learn more about as3)
It is 3D photo pannels from this page
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/index.php?currentpage=3
anyway i have notced that when the app loads the affected object always faces its top left most position.
I believe this is caused by the mouse position being zero before the user mouse overs the flash area.
obviosly i want the object to face the screen as if it was static until the user tries to use it
Firstly I attempted to wrap all of the code into a mouseover event listener but this just crashed it.
My second idea was to copy/paste the entire frame, change the interactive instance name in frame 1, apply stop(); to frame 1 and then use an mouseover event listener on the movable object in frame 1 which goes to frame 2.
This works but there is a notable delay between moving to the second frame and the code that makes the object intractve kicking in
(the background changes instantly when i mouse over so this shows that the framechange is instant, but the object takes a second or 2 to become fully responsive to mouse position changes)
i have tried adding removeeventlistener to the change frame function and this improves speed somewhat but there is still a noticable delay
what else can i do to make the transition seamless?
would putting a preloader on it work (ensure the code if fully loaded before the user can do any interacting?

try:
package
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
public class PhotoPanels extends MovieClip
  public function PhotoPanels():void
   addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
  private function loop(e:Event):void
if(getTimer()<100 &&mouseX==0 && mouseY==0 && ){
var distx:Number = stage.stageWidth / 1300;
   var disty:Number = stage.stageHeight / 900;
} else {
   distx = mouseX / 650;
   disty = mouseY / 450;
   TweenLite.to(con, 2, {
         rotationY:(-70 + (140*distx)),
        ease:Expo.easeOut

    goes to the page with out having flash player installed on their machine,
    i'm looking for some script to detect that there computer doesn't have
    Flash and redirect them to another html page I've created.

    Somewhere above your tag, you will have a line similar to this - Also in your tag the swf file -
    These are the files that I said may be wrong or missing.
    However if you just edit the flash generated page and include the items you
    require in this, and maintain the same file position, you should have no
    problems,

  • I need help with a browser problem

    I am was given a new iMac G3 (from 2001) which was really never used.I have not yet had any serious problems with it, but really could use some help with a browser problem.
    I have 4 different web browsers that needs the macro media flash player update. The browsers I use are internet explorer, iCab, Netscape, and the original Mozilla Firefox.
    It would be of great appreciation for the readers of this post to answer my question.
    I am also having the problem with installing the plug - ins for the browsers. Thank You For Taking the Time To read This!

    Hi, rynodino -
    As Tom has suggested, plugins need to be installed in the Plug-Ins folder for the browser.
    Typically each browser will have its own Plug-Ins folder, usually located in the same folder containing the browser itself. In order for each of several browsers to access the same plugins, the plugins must be replicated and placed in each of the Plug-Ins folders for each of the browsers. The easy way to do that is to hold down the Option key while dragging a plugin to the new location - a copy (not an alias) of the plugin will be generated at the location it is dragged to.
    Most plugins will display a Netscape icon regardless of where they are located - this is normal.
    It is not unusual for the installer for a plugin to default its install to the Plug-Ins folder for Internet Explorer. So be it. Just replicate the new plugin to the other Plug-Ins folders as needed.
    Note that some plugin installs will involve more than one item. For those, be sure to replicate all items for it. Using labels can help identify what is new, what has been most recently added, in a Plug-Ins folder.

    I just googled and found lots of folks with the same problem.  One fellow wrote this as a soluton:
    "All you have to do is
    remove the values from the imageLinks in the flash element. That
    should fix it."
    Does it?

  • Help with Installing flash error- metafile cannot be loaded

    I read the forum on this but it ended last year and there was no response to some recent questions on this and the direct email to the Adobe rep. on there got no response.
    I am having this problem with installing Flash- it gets about 30% of the way and then a message comes up that says the metafile cannot be loaded.
    I am running 10.7.5 on Mac, all browser software is current. I use both Safari and Chrome. After it said Flash was out of date I tried to update but got the metafile error. So I uninstalled Flash to install it fresh but the same error came up. I tried everything recommended from the forum. I also did all the steps from the help list direct from Adobe ( deleting Flash files, folders, rebooting, etc.) The offline link Adobe provides says the "file cannot be found" so I can't download that either. So I tried the online link download, but even after doing all the steps in order etc. I still get the error when I try to install it.
    I have no firewall and have no virus software running. I also tried the direct offline links that others have provided from 2013, (unfortunately they are old)  in both clicking on them and also downloading by right click but they are dead links and even  the download for it has no content.
    Any help that is more recent than last year? If this is in the wrong place, apologies. New to the forum.

    I tried all solutions but one posted in adobe support. I am local administrator but IE security settings are set by group policies and buttons in tools security setting are grayed out.
    After three days with "The ActiveX control for Flash Player could not be registered" message I tried registering the activeX control manually.
    Bingo! that made the trick.
    So open a DOS window, type "regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10d.ocx" -first check if this directory exists and contains the Flash10d.ocx (no quotes needed) and you should receive a confirmation that it registered correctly.
    I must say that I've tried so many ways that I cannot repeat the correct order before this has worked ;-(
    Hope it works for you all

  • Need Help with a Flash Web Project

    Hello, everyone. I am trying to use Flash to make a two-step
    system. I want the flash document to, first, allow a person to
    upload multiple image files and then, second, for the flash
    document be able to create a slideshow with the uploaded images and
    fade in and out from each image until the slideshow is over. I want
    it to be where the flash document creates its own slideshow with
    the images that are uploaded in the first step that I mentioned. I
    want it to do it completely on its own so I need to know how to
    give it the proper AI so that it can do this task.
    So, are there any tips that anyone has on how to do this? Can
    anyone tell me exactly how to do this? I really need help with this
    for my new website project. Thanks in advance, everyone!

    The problem with the text not appearing at all has to do with you setting the alpha of the movieclip to 0%.  Not within the movieclip, but the movieclip itself.  The same for the xray graphic, except you have that as a graphic symbol rather than a movieclip.  To have that play while inhabiting one frame you'll need to change it to a movieclip symbol.
    To get the text to play after the blinds (just a minor critique, I'd speed up the blinds), you will want to add some code in the frame where you added the stop in the blinds animation.  You will also need to assign instance names for the text movieclips in the properties panel, as well as place a stop(); in their first frames (inside).
    Let's say you name them upperText and lowerText.  Then the code you'd add at the end of the blinds animation (in the stop frame) would be...
    _parent.upperText.play();
    _parent.lowerText.play();
    The "_parent" portion of that is used to target the timeline that is containing the item making the command, basically meaning it's the guy inside the blinds telling the guy outside the blinds to do something.
    You'll probably want to add stops to the ends of the text animations as well.
    If you want to have the first text trigger the second text, then you'd take that second line above and place it in the last frame of the first text animation instead of the blinds animation.
    Note, on occasion, undeterminably, that code above doesn't work for some odd reason... the animation plays to the next frame and stops... so if you run into that, just put a play(); in the second frame to help push it along.
    PS GotoandPlay would actually be gotoAndPlay, and for the code above you could substitute play(); with gotoAndPlay(2);

    Hi!
    Please I need help with this app I am trying to make for an Android cellphone and I've been struggling with this for a couple of months.
    I have a main flash file (video player.fla) that will load external swf files. This is the main screen.When I click the Sets Anteriores button I want to open another swf file called sets.swf.The app is freezing when I click Sets Anteriores button

    Please help me with this problem I dont know what else to do.
    thank you

    My first guess is you're simply generating an error. You'll always want to load this on your device in quick debugging over USB so you can see any errors you're generating.
    Outside that, if you plan on accessing anything inside the SWF you should be loading the SWF into the correct context. Relevant sample code:
    var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
    context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
    context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
    var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.[your_domain_here].com/library.swf");
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(urlReq, context);

    If you're doing this on iOS you'll need to stripped SWFs if you plan on using any coding (ABC) inside the files. You mentioned iOS so I won't get into that here, but just incase, here's info on stripping external SWFs:

  • Help with building flash files for streaming

    I filmed a product demonstration for a client who wanted to put it on his website.  I edited the footage in PremPro CS4 and exported to Media Encoder as F4V file format.  After encoding imported footage into CS4 Encore, created timeline, chose, Flash from Format and swf for output.  Progressive Download which allows video to begin playing as it is downloaded (I believe), chose destinations and settings.  After transcoding I had 1 file folder, Sources that contained the following files _PGC_Bpge_entryPoint_Bbp_1.f4v, and then 3 separate files, *not* in the file folder called Sources.  They are
    AuthoredContent.xml, FlashDVD.swf, and Index.html.
    I submitted all files to client who gave them to web designer.  Designer said these were the wrong files and he could not use them. I called designer and basically he said I didn't know what I was doing.  I told him he needed all files to put up the flash video.  Anyway, am I missing something, doing something wrong?  Are there other files he needs?  He said he only needed 1 file.  Or is it the designer?  I'm not thin skinned so if it's me please tell me so, so I don't make the same errors.  Thanks.  All suggestions/comments are appreciated!

    <The client wants a control player, i.e. play, stop, pause, etc., that's it, so the viewer can simply provide the function themselves.  This is similar to youtube, blogger, etc.
    The web designer can use what you provided, which does what you describe the client wanting.  But the web designer may need to integrate what Encore provided onto a web page, and the client may not have made the expectations clear and may not know what is needed.  As I said, the Encore to flash player gives almost no options for the player controls and colors etc may be problems.
    <Encore did encode the f4v file.  When I exported from PremPro what preset should I hve chosen -- mpeg2 DVD, flv/f4v.  So the only file he needs in addition to what I gave him is the original f4v file?
    I don't know whether the f4v you exported from Premiere was progressive.  The f4v from Encore might be fine, or you might need to export from Premiere again.
    The other issue is that some "player" with controls needs to be provided by you or the web designer (who may have an issue with the client not getting the designer to lay all this out to begin with).  There are several threads about "flv players" you might check out.  Does the client have video on his site already?  If so, you can figure out what they are using, and it will help with your process.
    should I have chosen "flash server" instead of "progressive".  i must admit i never did this before.  other clients just have me post it to youtube and provide them with embed code.
    It depends on what they want.

  • Need help with adobe flash crashing my computer.

    i use firefox is this a problem with adobe flash?

    You might want to give some specifics. Other then my computer crashes with Adobe....Not to be a S.A but there are a lot of different Adobe programs and computers. You mention FF so Windows would be my guess, or you could be running Linux. Do you see the variables here? What kind of computer? Not a Desktop or Laptop or Dell or HP. Specs like GPU, CPU, Memory. Program running, what you were doing, etc. The more detailed you are the more a user can hop in and try and help you.

  • Please help with Nokia N95 problem.

    If anyone can help with this I’d be much appreciated, I have a N95 on contract with T-Mobile. When I try to play videos from myspace, or you tube etc… I get a message telling me the following.
    “Hello, Either you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of macromedia's flash player click here to get the latest flash player”.
    I then get the option of clicking on a link within the previous sentence statement that directs me to acrobat downloads home page where I get the following message.
    “We are unable to locate a web player that matches your platform and browser. Please visit our table of recommended web players”
    This is deeply frustrating as in nearly every other way I feel the phone is perfect. If Any one can hep me fix this problem I’d be much appreciated.

    daperk,
    You should post this to board "Smartphones, Nseries and Eseries Devices".

  • Help with macromedia flash

    Hi,
    Can someone please please help me with macromedia flash?  I have the release 9 version installed on an Arch i686 (32 bit) system.  When I try to watch some videos I get the sound but no picture. (Foxnews.com videos are especially bad for this). Currently I am using Swiftfox from the AUR but I had 'Bon Echo' and it didn't work either. I've tried using konqueror but that says that there's no flash whatsoever on the machine. I figure I must have something wrong in my setup that's causing this.
    Does anyone know where to look??
    Thanks.

    I have same problem
    No flash in pages like Adobe's testing page or other. I installed flashplugin using "pacman -S flashplugin" also like wiki suggests, but in vain. Should I try the old "ln -s" method found in the wiki or what?
