How to email a flash animation

I am trying to email a flash animation to our sales force. I
cannot seem to make this work. The only way that works is making it
an animated gif. However, when I do this, it looks more like an
illustration and my text gets all outta whack. I have read that you
can put it on a server. I am not sure how to do this. Do I have to
have a web site?

Then dzedward's solution is the route you need to go.
Upload the .swf to a server, place the address for the .swf
file in your email, and then send the email. Send the email to
yourself first to ensure that it's working properly.
Be warned though, many people have the security settings on
their email client set such that .swf files are blocked from
appearing in an email. Make sure you warn the client about this,
and suggest adjusting their security settings to allow the content
through if necessary.

  • How do I get Flash animated slide shows to work on iPads, iPods, and iPhones?

    How do I get Flash animated slide shows to work on iPads, iPods, and iPhones?
    I'm using a PC. Web Site Flash generated slide show works fine on PC's.
    Does not work on Apple platforms.
    What do I use to to enable animated slide shows to work on Apple platforms?

    Hello,
    Flash Player is only supported on Apple OS X systems (10.6 - 10.10).  It is not, and has never been, supported on any i-Devices.  There are no plans to support these platforms.

  • How do I make flash animation?

    how do I make flash animation for websites with Abode Flash
    CS3? It will have static words with animation moving behind it.
    Example:
    http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/rescueme/#/home/
    exclusive video, about the crew, and cast and crew: all have
    video snippets moving when you mouse over it.

    I'm sorry, but this question is sort of like: "I bought a
    hammer, a saw and some wood, how do I make a rocking chair?"
    First step: open Flash and hit the F1 key. This will open up
    Flash's Help menu. Choose "Using Flash". Go through all the
    exercises. If you're impatient and want to skip ahead (I don't
    recommend it), go to the "Creating Animation" section. The
    explanations and tutorials are actually very well-written and easy
    to grasp.
    There is also a PDF file that comes installed with Flash
    called flash_cs3_help.pdf, which contains the same material.
    I could write out a paint-by-numbers tutorial for you here,
    but it would be pretty similar to what's in the Flash Help
    resources. Use them. Then if you get stuck on a specific detail,
    feel free to ask questions at this forum and people will be more
    than happy to help.

  • How to flip a flash animation?

    Hi,
    Is is possible to play a flash animation flipped
    (horizontally mirrored), when embed on a HTML page? If so, how can
    I do this, in IE?
    Thanks.

    Hi, Rob,
    If I understand what you mean. I should set these vars while
    creating the flash movie, right?
    But that`s not exactly what I need, as I just get the .SWF
    made by someone else, and display then on my application. So what I
    need is something more like a param to the object tag or a
    javascript command that I could call from the HTML page, and then
    it would display that .SWF flipped.
    I'll try to explain why I need it.
    I have an application that accepts various formats, including
    flash (SWF), SVG, and static images. There is a requirement that
    the user should be able to see the application through a
    telepromter (something like this
    http://www.murrayhillstudios.com/murrayhillstudios_files/teleprompt03.jpg),
    and that`s why I must provide an option for him to flip the
    images/clips. I`ve used an embeddeb browser to display the SWF
    files. The flipping option has already been implemented for all the
    other formats, including the content on the embedded web browser
    that`s outside the flash plugin.
    Now, that (hopefully) it`d become clearer. Is there a way to
    go around that?
    Thanks.

  • How to add a flash animation into another flash presentation? Help!!!

    I made an animation and I am wanting to add it to a flash portfolio that I am now creating. I am creating the portfolio so I can send it to potential employers. I am new to Flash but not to Illustrator, Photoshop or InDesign. I am adding several different files from those other programs to the porfolio and want to add a few Flash creations also.So how can I easliy bring the Flash animations into the Presentation? I want the animation to play in the same timeline but I don't want to have to recreate the whole thing or recreate the portfolio. What type of file format does the animation need to be to play? Can this be done?

    In AS2 you can use loadmovie to load a .swf into another .swf.

  • How do you troubleshoot Flash animations that wont load?

    I've recently switched to Safari 3.1 from Firefox and am finding occasional pages with flash animations that wont play
    (currently trying to get to "Product tour" on this page: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/remotes/universal_remotes/devices/3898&cl=us,e n )
    I just get a blank frame. I've confirmed I have the latest Adobe Flash plugin installed (9,0,115,0)
    Just curious if there is anything to do, or if this is just a funky, Safari-unfriendly page.
    Thanks.

    Same result here.
    if this is just a funky, Safari-unfriendly page
    Probably! But two things:
    It seems to be their Javascript that doesn't work.
    Secondly (may be worth trying):
    Some Leopard users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:

  • How to have a flash animation like this?

    Hi, Iam very new to website...Iam developing in Asp.Net 2010...Also It's my first project..
    I wish to learn the flash animation....similar to the link below mentioned homepage- top side logo animation...
    For that which has to be the references in asp.net.. And sample codings...or links will be helpful...
    Really I don't know  the tags..for this question...
    http://www.infosys-global.com/en/
    Thanks for the guidances

    It looks like it is just a timeline animation, possibly using a repeated subanimation for each of the whirling arcs which get turned at different rotation values and scaled... a little color tweening added near the end to get the pinkish hue.

  • Web Banner with Video: How to start a flash animation ONLY after .flv is finished loading.

    Hi,
    I am making a 10 sec. web banner and am required to use a video that is on an external server. I had no problem getting the video file converted, uploaded to the external server and it is now playing back perfectly after exporting the .swf file.
    The problem I am having is that my animations (mostly text items, which are placed very carefully throughout the .flv movie) aren't matching up with the movie's movements (due to the .flv starting later due to streaming – I am assuming).
    How would I go about syncing these two things, so that the animations always line up exactly with the video's movements? Something like a preloader would be totally fine. I've also read about 'Cue Points' but they seem to be a little unnecessary for what should be a simple 10 sec. banner.
    Also the .flv itself is exactly 10 sec. long, but the banner is 13 sec. long so that the last screen (with the most important information) is shown statically for 3 sec. Should I be doing anything to compensate for this other than simply adding the 3 sec. in the timeline in flash, and letting the .flv restart when the entire .swf starts looping?

    use cuepoints in the video to sync your swf movieclips/timelines with your video.

  • How to loop a flash animation in Dreamweaver?

    I have a simple animation I have converted to .flv. Load on a page in CS5, checked Auto Play and Auto Rewind, but I want the animation to loop.
    It plays when the page opens, but won't loop.
    http://www.minster.com/machinery/e2h/options/asm.html
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Hi
    This feature must also be enabled in the swf file using actionscript, simply setting the parameters in dreamweaver does not work.

  • How do I make multiple buttons in my flash animation?

    I am new to flash, and I have no training in it whatsoever. I
    created a flash animation with flash CS3 for my photography
    website, and I want to link each of the images to different
    galleries on my site. When I created my first button it worked
    fine, but when I try to create actions to link more than one image
    as a button, keep getting an error that says "1021: Duplicate
    function definition." How do I make each image as a separate
    button?
    I used the video of this tutorial as my guide to learn how to
    create a button:
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/flash/articles/flacs3it_firstflash_pt1.html
    Also, when I run the animation to test it, it loops, and I
    don't want it to loop. How do I stop it from looping?

    I used the method shown in the tutorial I mentioned to create
    it (created a new layer for the button, selected the area of the
    image for the button,used modify -> convert to symbol
    -> button, I edited it so it was an invisible button by
    moving it to the hit frame, gave the selected area an instance name
    of Hizumi_btn, inserted a new layer for actions and added the code
    I have attached to this post.
    I assumed that I would just need to repeat this procedure for
    each of the other images in my animation, but when I did that I
    received the error.
    I greatly appreciate any help you can give me.
    Thanks for the information on how to stop the animation.
    Here is the code I used to create my first button.

  • How to link flash animations in dreamweaver 8

    Hey everyone i have been trying to learn dreamweaver 8, flash
    8, and others in a short time. My question is,
    I am trying to create a website in dreamweaver 8 but i am
    having trouble making a link to another page of the site out of the
    flash animation once it's done. I can't find a option for that
    anywhere, I was able to link the table in which the animation sits
    but it does nothing. For now i just have the word ENTER below the
    animation so the rest of the site can be viewed.
    here's the link to the site where the animation first page is
    www.fatcatzcreative.com
    I have spent days trying to figure this out and being the
    typical man i have finally broken down and am askin for help.
    Thanks in advance to all.

    HTML cannot link Flash.
    If you want links in Flash, you will have to edit the Flash
    file's
    actionscript and add the links there.

  • How to Prevent Flash Animation Playing?

    I have a flash animation that plays automatically when the user lands on the homepage of my site. It's part of the header, so it's present on every subsequent page of the site as well. However, I would like it to NOT play on the other pages. It should be visible, but only display the first frame or so of the animation, rather than playing automatically on every page.
    How do I stipulate that in the code? Is there a line I can add somewhere?
    Thanks for any help.

    the easiest thing to do, is to create two different swfs.  one for the home page (that you've already made) and one for the other pages which will be the same as the one you have now except you want to add a stop() to the swf's first frame.

  • How Can I Make a Flash Animation for TV?

    I'm learning flash animation and am wondering once I save the flash file to a dvd format, how does the end-user navigate when they put the dvd into their TV? Do I need to design and incorporate a menu for the end-user? If so, how does the TV remote control navigate through this menu that was created on a Mac computer? Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.

    I don't know a lot about this subject but thought I'd give it a shot to answer.  You can use Adobe Encore to create menu systems for your DVD title screen.  As far as Flash is concerned I think you can import your animations into Encore's menu system though I'm not exactly sure how.  If you want to just make an animation that will be played back without interactivity you would just export your Flash animation as a Quicktime MOV file and import it into After Effects for further editing and finishing.  Once you render your mp4 (h.264) from AE you can bring this into Encore to author for your DVD.
