How to exit or unload a swf file

Hi,
I create a .swf file and couldn’t seem to find actionscript code to exit/unload the file.  I also can’t find code to automatically load a file as a full screen.  I have used the code below but it seems to only works in projector or .exe files but not in the .swf file.
Exit/Unload:this.btnExit.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Exit);
function Exit(event:MouseEvent):void{
                fscommand("quit");
Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks.

This is a link going out to clients - once the link is pressed it opens in a web browser.  It's a 2 minute interactive video presentation.  I have play pause rewind fast forward  and exit buttons so that the user has control. I want the user to be able to exit out of the presentation - closing the browser.  I created this in Flash Professional CS5 and coded using Actionscript 3.
Many thanks,
Suovelat

  • FAQ: How do I load an external SWF file into a parent SWF file?

    A ton of Flash users visit Adobe’s we site every month wondering  about how to load an external SWF file from within another SWF.
    Adobe's own TechNote on the subject attempts to answer the basic question, along with some common follow-up questions, including:
    How do I load more than one SWF?
    How do I load a SWF into a specific location in the display list?
    How do I resize the loaded SWF?
    How do I set its X and Y location?
    Here are some additional resources that elaborate on loading content and on working with the display list:

    following might work...
    MovieClip(this.parent).removeChild(this);
    Unfortunately I couldn't get this to work. I placed it on the
    last frame of the SWF to be called - is that right?
    I am not sure I am doing it correctly...

  • How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better?

    How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better? Is there an option inside of the dreamweaver menu that I am not looking at. It would make it easier on me if I changed some things around and didn't have to do it all myself each time I used it. Just incase you was needing to remember what swf flash was, It is not a swf video either.

    If I understand correctly, Sonic Kaboom.swf needs to be edited in a separate Flash authoring program and then reinserted into your HTML document. 
    As Murray said, Flash is dead.  Nobody uses it anymore.   We use HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript animations which have universal support from Smartphones, Tablets and other web devices that can't support Flash.   Look at Edge Animate.

  • How to edit or modify a .swf file?

    I am trying to edit a .swf file and make some changes in the css styles.How to edit or modify a .swf file?

    You need the fla file that created the swf.  You edit the fla and publish the swf.  Swf's don't usually involve css styles.

  • How can I make a small swf file out of InDesign

    I have a 200 page book (PDF). I am trying to make a flip book to preview in web browser. How can I make a small swf file out of InDesign with the PDF I have?

    There is another point:
    if you are using JPEG images together with SWF as output file format, you could get smaller images by:
    1. using the Export For Web menu for generating size optimized JPEGs in PhotoShop opposed to Save As JPEG
    2. stripping all color management (ICC) information off the files (SWF is not very good in color management besides sRGB, I think…)

  • How can I make my Clock.swf file disappear?

    Hi,
    How can I make my Clock.swf file disappear? The following code works great for movie clips but throwing an error while using for .swf files.
    Introduction_mc.visible = false; >>> This code works fine
    Clock.swf.visible = false; >>>> This code throws an error (How to resolve this problem?)
    Please help.

    The easiest way is by targeting the Loader object.
    l.visible = false;
    or
    removeChild(l);
    will both work.  And you can make it visible again if need be using the opposite of those commands.

  • Remove / unload external swf file(s) from the main flash file and load a new swf file and garbage collection from memory.

    Andrei1,
    Thank you for the helpful advice. I made the changes as you suggested but I am receiving a #1009 error message even though my site is working the way I wan it to work. I would still like to fix the errors so that my site runs and error free. This is the error I am receiving:
    "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."
    I'm sure this is not the best method to unload loaders and I am guessing this is why I am receiving the following error message.
         loader.unload();
         loader2.unload();
         loader3.unload();
    I also tried creating a function to unload the loader but received the same error message and my portfolio swf was not showing at all.
         function killLoad():void{
         try { loader.close(); loader2.close; loader3.close;} catch (e:*) {}
         loader.unload(); loader2.unload(); loader3.unload();
    I have a question regarding suggestion you made to set Mouse Event to "null". What does this do setting the MouseEvent do exactly?  Also, since I've set the MouseEvent to null do I also have to set the loader to null? e.g.
    ---- Here is my updated code ----
    // variable for external loaders
    var loader:Loader;
    var loader1:Loader;
    var loader2:Loader;
    var loader3:Loader;

    function resizeHandler(event:Event):void {
    // resizes portfolio page to center
         loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - loader.width) * .5;
         loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - loader.height) * .5;
    // resizes about page to center
         loader3.x = (stage.stageWidth - 482) * .5 - 260;
         loader3.y = (stage.stageHeight - 492) * .5 - 140;
    //adds gallery.swf to stage at begining of moviie
         Down();

    Hi,
    I have a similar requirement where I need to show the preview of a document in a popup.
    I have a button and I added "af:fileDownloadActionListener" into the button, then I wrote the following code in my bean for the downloadactionlistener:
    public void showPreviewDownloadListener(FacesContext facesContext,
    java.io.OutputStream outputStream) throws IOException{
    DCIteratorBinding agr = getBindingsForDCB().findIteratorBinding("xyz");
    Row row = ag.getRowSetIterator().getCurrentRow();
    String fileName = (String)row.getAttribute("FileName");
    String fileType = (String)row.getAttribute("FileType");
    BlobDomain file = (BlobDomain)row.getAttribute("FileData");
    try {
    InputStream inputStream = file.getBinaryStream();
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int count;
    while ((count = inputStream.read(buf)) >= 0) {
    outputStream.write(buf, 0, count);
    inputStream.close();
    outputStream.flush();
    outputStream.close();
    file.closeInputStream();
    docPreviewInlineFrame.setSource(fileName);
    //ADFUtils.setEL("#{pageFlowScope.docSource}", "../"+fileName);
    ADFUtils.invokePopup(docPreviewPopup,true);
    catch(IOException ioex) {
    ioex.printStackTrace();
    when I'm clicking my button, all it does is open a popup to view/download the while.
    My own popup (with a dialog and an internalFram in it) does not get invoked at all.
    Also the file that I'm referring is from DB, can anyone also suggest me how to set the source for the inline frame if the file is from DB?
    Thanks in advance,

  • How to call method in another swf file

    Hi. I am at the moment making a website in Flash 8. The

    type some search terms. I have written some code that will search
    through the text field(s) on the page and highlight any words that
    appear matching the search terms. The only problem is that I cannot
    get to the text fields on the other files. So what I want to be
    able to do is attach some code to the search button that will call
    a method in another swf file using the parameters that I the user
    has specified in the search box. How would I go about doing this?
    Any help is much appreciated

    Place functions in the external swf. Then you can call them
    through the container clip
    content.yourFunction(args);
    Realize however, you cannot call code in an external swf
    until the frames with the functions are loaded. Timing would be an
    issue if the user can beat the loading clock or if you have code
    that is executed automatically after you start the load.
    So if timing becomes an issue, use MovieClipLoader and the
    onLoadInit method.

  • How to put a video player swf file inside a flash file

    i want to know how i can put a flash file inside a flash wbsite. i have found a tutorial http://www.ehow.com/how_4906532_within-another-flash-swf-file.html that says something like that but in this tutorial if i understand correctly it creates a new flash project and add another swf inside. i have my website created and i just want to add video gallery, image gallery etc that are already swf. how i can do that?

    You can use swf inside of another swf.
    If you are using Actionscript2 then learn about LoadMovie
    And for AS3 it is Loader.

  • How make a button open a .swf file in a new window?

    How do I make a button open a swf file in a seperate window
    new window (like if i opened to swf file seperately)
    Anyone know ?

    well you can publish the the other FLA, which would give you
    an HTML file, upload that and the SWF then link to the SWFs' HTML
    page.

  • Unloading external swf file keeps memory usage growing up

    Hello everybody,
    The idea is very simple: I have a submain.swf with 5 buttons. Each button loads an external .swf file.
    com_loader.load(URLRequest);
    After playing first external swf, before I go to next one, I try to unload it:
    1. remove all its associated listeners:
    com_loader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.INIT-PROGRESS-COMPLETE, idFunction);
    2. unload it:
    com_loader.unload();
    3. set to null:
    com_loader = null;
    and load next external swf file and so on.
    The problem is that the FireFox/IE8.0 Memory Usage in Task Manager is going up and I see no sign of GC activity even after 5 mins of playing. Can anyone light me up pls? This is the second week working around and no good news until now.
    Thanks in advance.
    P.S.
    If I try com_loader.unloadAndStop(); it gives me the error: Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed.
    Vince.

    Hi Ice,
    The loaded swf file contains only a small photo, just for testing, with no listeners or other stuff in it.

  • Facing problem while unloading the SWF file in SWF Loader

    Facing problem with SWF Loader.
    Background:
    I've 4 SWF files (demo1.swf, demo1_skin.swf, demo2.swf and demo2_skin.swf).
    These swf files are created throgh Adobe Captivate.
    Playing demo1_skin, will play the demo1.swf with the controls at the button such as "Play", "Pause", "Stop", "Forward", "Backward" and Seekbar.
    Playing demo2_skin, will play the demo2.swf with the controls at the button such as "Play", "Pause", "Stop", "Forward", "Backward" and Seekbar.
    Scenario:
    1. Clicked on the video1 leaf of the tree. Video1.swf is getting played.
    I am able to click on the seek bar to take the video pointer to the desired position. I can drag the seek bar forward and backward also.
    2. Clicked on the video2 leaf of the tree. Video2.swf is getting played.
    I am not able to click on the seek bar to take the video pointer to the desired position. Also, I am not able to drag the pointer on the seek bar either forward or backward also.
    Play, Pause, Stop, Forward, Backward buttons on the skin works properly.
    3. If I again, click on the video1 leaf, point 1 observation is found.
    4. clicking agian, on video2 leaf, point 2 observation found.
    Please suggest.
    I tried with Loader also. But, nothing fruitful. Same result, as I am getting from SWF Loader.
    Please find the below used code.

    Try calling unloadAndStop() before loading a new swf.
