How to Display an Alert or Dialog Box in Flash CS4?

I would like to have a quick message displayed on the screen for a few seconds after a user clicks a button.  I can't seem to find an Alert Box or Dialog Box option in Flash CS4...can anyone help?
Thanks.
Dave

as2 has the window component.  and for both as3 and as2 it's pretty simple to create your own movieclip to use as an alert window.

  • JDialog Problem: How to make a simple "About" dialog box?

    Hi, anyone can try me out the problem, how to make a simple "About" dialog box? I try to click on the MenuBar item, then request it display a JDialog, how? Following is my example code, what wrong code inside?
    ** Main.java**
    ============================
    publc class Main extends JFrame{
    public Main() {
              super();
              setJMenuBar();
              initialize();
    public void setJMenuBar()
         JMenuBar menubar = new JMenuBar();
            setJMenuBar(menubar);
            JMenu menu1 = new JMenu("File");      
            JMenuItem item = new JMenuItem("About");      
            item.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
                  // About about = new About(this);
               // about.show();
            menu1.add(item);
         menubar.add(menu1);
    public static void main(String args[]){
         Main main = new Main();
    }** About.java**
    =============================
    import java.awt.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class About extends JDialog{
         JPanel jp_top, jp_center, jp_bottom;
         public About(JFrame owner){
              super(owner);
              setDefaultCloseOperation( DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE );
              Image img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(DateChooser.class.getResource("Duke.gif"));          
              setIconImage( img );
              setSize(500,800);
              Container contentPane = getContentPane();
             contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());           
             contentPane.add(getTop(), BorderLayout.NORTH);
              contentPane.add(getCenter(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
              contentPane.add(getBottom(), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
              setResizable(false);
               pack();            
               setVisible(true);
         public JPanel getTop(){
              jp_top = new JPanel();
              return jp_top;
         public JPanel getCenter(){
              jp_center = new JPanel();
              return jp_center;
         public JPanel getBottom(){
              jp_bottom = new JPanel();
              jp_bottom.setLayout(new BoxLayout(jp_bottom, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
              JButton jb = new JButton("OK");
              jp_bottom.add(jb);
              return jp_bottom;
    }

    Code looks reasonable except
    a) the code in the actionPerformed is commment out
    b) the owner of the dialog should be the frame
    If you need further help then you need to create a "Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)",
    see http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html,
    that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.

  • How can I automatically close a dialog box using Javascript after I click the OK button to submit it?

    How can I automatically close a dialog box using Javascript after I click the OK button to submit it? I don't want to have to X out of the dialog box after I am done.
    Thanks
    Linda

    JS can not interact with open dialogs in any way, unless it's a dialog
    created in JS using the Dialog object.

    How I can diable in firefox dialog box "download error could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. " standart download manager when file not downloaded

    It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is interfering otherwise.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files
    You can try to set the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to false.

  • How can I use LCCS with ActionScript 3 and Flash CS4?

    Hi,
    Using Stratus I was able to create an an application using Action Script 3 and Flash CS4.  The sample code on the Adobe site was quite straight forward and easy to understand.  I now want to switch over to  LCCS but can't find anything any where on how to use Action Script 3 and Flash CS4 with LCCS.  Do I need to know Flex to be able to use LCCS?  Everything was quite simple and easy to understand with Stratus and makes complete sense.  But LCCS is really confusing.  Is there any sample code on how to establish a connection in Action Script 3 and then stream from a webcam to a client.  There is nothing in the  LCCS SDK that covers Flash and Action Script 3.  Please help!  I found the link below on some forum but it takes me nowhere.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the LCCS world.
    Please refer to the SDK's sampleApps folder. There would be an app called FlashUserList. The app demonstrates how LCCS can be used with Flash CS4. Its a  pretty basic app, but should help you moving.
    We are trying to improve our efforts to help developers in understanding our samples. Please do let us know if we can add something that would help others.
    Thanks

  • How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?

    Hi,
    How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?
    Thanks.

    you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
    you should "load" your swf, not import it.
    if you want to load it and need help, are you using as2 or as3?

  • How to create a custom file dialog box/vi (win)??

    Hello,
    I'd like to create a custom file dialog box to handle the reading of my tdms files. Basicly I want to extend the existing file select dialog box with a graphical preview of the data in the selected file. I know I can create all the logic for file selection by hand and use a list box to display the filelist, but I would rather prefer to somehow use the existing windows controls. So is it possible to get the windows file selector on the front panel of a vi and react to the user selection? If so, is there any example available on how to do this? Any other options? I'm using labview 8.2
    thanks for your input!
    klaus

    Klaus,
    I wouldn't know that Microsoft provides access to the controls that Explorer and file dialog consist of.
    There might be a different and more powerful solution though. The
    WINDOWS Explorer / file dialog have a plugin API that allows you to
    associate your own application for thumbnail creation with a particular
    file extension. That way, TDMS thumbnails will show in any instance of
    Explorer and
    File Dialog without you having to make your own dialog. Basically, you
    would need to compile the VI that creates the thumbnail into a
    LabVIEW-built DLL and then wrap this DLL with some C++ boilerplate code
    that Microsoft provides. You might want to have a look at the bottom of
    this article to get an idea of how the whole thing works:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/0600/w2kui2/default.aspx.
    Hope that helps,
    Herbert

  • How to display an Alert synchronously ?

    The Alert.show() function displays an alert asynchronously in
    Flex (the code line which follows the Alert.show() statement is
    executed well before the alert actually appears on screen).
    Anybody knows a way to force this alert to show itself
    syncronously instead please?
    Thank you in advance.

    In the following example an Alert box is popped up with a
    Yes/No question. At no time is the Flash Player (your Flex SWF)
    paused or waiting. This is purely event driven.
    private function showChoiceAlert() : void
    Alert.show("This is a choice. Either pick Yes or No,
    please", "Choices",
    Alert.YES | Alert.NO, null,
    alertHandler);
    You call this function as the result of some action, such as
    a button click. When either of the Alert's Yes or No buttons are
    picked, the function, alertHandler(), is called:
    private function alertHandler( event:mx.events.CloseEvent ) :
    void
    // the event.detail indicates which button was pressed.
    Compare it
    // to the static values in the Alert class.
    if( event.detail == Alert.YES ) {
    result.text = "You picked Yes";
    } else if( event.detail == Alert.NO ) {
    result.text = "You picked No";
    } else {
    result.text = "I don't know what you picked!";
    In this example, the alertHandler fills a Label component's
    text property.
    In other words, you cannot 'wait' for the user to do
    something. The 'waiting' is simply the Flash Player doing whatever
    it does until the user picks a button on the Alert dialog which
    fires an event.

  • Displaying Text in a Dialog Box

    I'm learning Java by reading the book : Java How to Program, 5th edition. Starting chapter 2, all the example programs use windows or dialog boxes to display output instead of display output in the command window. Can someone explain to me why is this necessary ? I'm a little confused reading some of the examples in this book.

    personally, i dont think it's a good approach. for beginners, it would be better to learn the basic java concepts and enssential classes first cause this would give you a easier starting point. Then, trying mix your code up with graphical user interface(GUI), once you've got some basic ideas and coding experiences. for example, the tutorials on this web site does adopt this approach.
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/index.html
    hope it helps. good luck.

    text = 'disp_alert()'.   "this java script i placed in the page
    data: lo_link type ref to cl_htmlb_link.
      create object lo_link.
         lo_link->id = p_cell_id.
         lo_link->onclientclick = text.
         lo_link->text = <fs>-matnr.
         p_replacement_bee = lo_link.

  • How can I disable "download error" dialog box when saving a complete web page?

    Sometimes, when I try to save a web page as type: "Web Page, complete", firefox displays download error dialog box stating a file "could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."
    I don't have a problem with firefox couldn't save that file, but I have a problem with firefox displaying that dialog box, because I have to click OK everytime.
    Is there a way to disable that annoying dialog box?

    I modified the host file mainly to block ads. But that's not the problem. It's OK for me for firefox to not saving some parts of a page (ads usually within a frame). It's my intention to NOT saving those files. I just want to save the main content of a webpage.
    But I'm having a problem with firefox displaying the dialog boxes.
