Import Flash components into Flex

Hy,
I'm trying to create an AIR application. Until now I've watched and read a lot of tutorials but none had the answer I was looking for. So I have a few animations made in Flash as MovieClip symbols. They should react depending on the user's intentions. How can I import those symbols and control them with "gotoAnd" commands (i know how to use the AS in Flex but not how to import animations)? I'm starting to think Flex can't do this because I only found about skins or images or things not even close to what I want. If you know a way I would really apreciate a nice tutorial or a code sample.
Many thanks !

I think that what you're looking for is the Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3.
By installing this kit you are able to export any movie clip from flash as a flex component.
Then, you have full access to the objects inside the component by writing code in your Flex application.

  • Import flash movieclip into flashbuilder

    Hi i tried this tutorial http://www.codeandvisual.com/2009/how-to-import-movieclips-into-a-flas h-builder-actionscript-project/
    but when i import flash movieclip into flashbuilder then it shows source attachment None after view swc which i import.
    is there other way to import flash movieclips into flashbuilder???

    Unfortunately, your out of luck.
    Fw, and other applications, for that matter, does not handle .fla/.swf files in that manner.
    As your search yielded, Flash is better suited to handle native Fw files/artwork as library assets.

    One thing to point out, if you are doing this with the trial. While it is 100% (nothing crippled, or omitted), the trial WILL put a watermark on the finished Project. If you are doing this for work, be aware of that watermark. This http://forums.adobe.com/thread/433730?tstart=0 will give you some tips and background.
    Good luck, and I do not want you to be surprised and mad, when you get that watermark.

  • Flash components in Flex

    I have built an interface in Flash CS3 and now have the need
    to port it over to Flex. I am trying to do it with as little
    re-build as possible, so I need to port the Flash components over
    with it. I exported a SWC with all of the components I am using,
    and added it to the Library Path of an AS project.
    The build gives me no errors, but I do get a #2007 at
    runtime. The error seems to be stemming from a Yahoo ASTRA Flash
    component, which was included in the SWC.
    TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
    at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChildAt()
    at fl.controls::BaseButton/drawBackground()
    at fl.controls::LabelButton/draw()
    at fl.controls::Button/draw()
    at
    com.yahoo.astra.fl.controls.tabBarClasses::TabButton/draw()
    at fl.core::UIComponent/drawNow()
    at com.yahoo.astra.fl.controls::TabBar/drawButtons()
    at com.yahoo.astra.fl.controls::TabBar/draw()
    at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()
    I have been searching around the net, and the majority of
    people are saying that this happens when the skins aren't included
    (so you need to set them before the component is added to the
    stage). I am using customized programmatic skins, for which the
    source files are included in the build, and the styles get set
    before the component is added to the stage (I actually replaced the
    default ones in the class).
    Does anyone have any other ideas as to how I could fix this?
    PS - It is an ASTRA TabBar component that is giving me
    issues. I know that Flex has a TabBar and TabNavigator, but I can't
    find any documentation on how to use these from an AS project (no
    MXML). I will simply rebuild using the native Flex controls if
    necessary, and if possible, but would prefer to fix the issue as it
    currently stands. (I might go back to Flash at some point, and
    don't want to tie myself to a particular solution, considering I
    can't use Flex components in Flash).
    PPS - If you are wondering why I am porting to Flex right
    now, especially if I am considering taking it back to Flash in the
    future, it is because I have the need to begin building in
    FlashPlayer 10 functionality, and the only way you can build to
    FP10 right now (as its in beta) is with a nightly build of
    Flex.

  • Importing Flash Animation into Captivate

    I am trying to Import an animation from flash 8 into
    Captivate. It allows me to do this however the frame rate of the
    animation which was created in flash when imported to Captivate
    changes. Does anyone know how change the frame rate of the
    animation in captivate.

    Hi laxmi1 and welcome to the community
    Hopefully when you created your Flash animation, you
    published as Flash 6 output.
    I believe the standard frame rate for Flash is 12. Captivate
    is 30. So you can either bump the Flash rate up to 30 and
    re-publish, or in Captivate, you can adjust the frame rate to match
    Flash and set it for 12. To do this, click Movie >
    Preferences... > Preferences tab. From there, it should be quire
    obvious what to do.
    Hopefully this helps... Rick

  • Is it possible to import Flash Apps Into Encore CS5.5?

    I have a unique issue with which I would appreciate support.  I am working on coding an mp3 player with playlist capability using Actionscript 3.0; it will be a defined playlist with only a certain number of files that never change.  Upon completion, I wish to use this to play files on the Special Features section of a DVD.  Is it possible, therefore, to import the completed Flash app into Encore?  I am using CS5.5.

  • Can I import a custom component from Flash 8 into Flex?

    'm creating a custom Flash Video Playback component in Flash
    8 using AS2. I understand that I cannot import this to Flex as
    stated in Livedocs: "You can use SWC files created in Flash 8 only
    for skinning, not as components. Until the next version of Flash is
    released, you can only use SWC files created in Flex 2 as
    components."
    But now that Flash 8 supports AS3 with the new Adobe Labs
    add-on, if I create the custom component using AS3 in Flash 8, can
    I then import it and use it in Flex 2.0.1?
    Any help is appreciated,
    Thanks!

    I was going through my libraries trying to find the quick test I did when I was dabbling with the kit and I can't find it anywhere at all.
    If I recall this was the pdf that I read to get it to work properly with CS3 and Flex 3 I don't know if you have read it already or if it will help, but it is the only thing I know for sure helped with the process.

  • Importing Software Components into Integration Builder (Design)

    Hi
    I have successfully installed XI 3.0 and have done post installation configuration.  Could you please point me 1.  how to apply the patches specified in the document
    I have created Technical system and Business system to associate with it. Now I want to import those software components from SLD into my design time Integration Builder.  While I do this I am gettin an error "Interal Occured" - Details of the error list 2 numbers one being Null Point Exception.  Could you please tell me what could be the possible problem and the way to resolve.  Is there a do it yourself kind of a document to learn development in XI, ie step by step instruction right from Data object, message object, interface object, business scenario creation etc.
    2. Is there a special step to follow to get the Adapters link up and running withing XI 3.0 web browser. Cos. at the moment, its invoking another window with local port number followed by :800, but it has an error saying "File Not found"
    Please reply, really appreciate it.
    Best Regards
    Shiva.

    Hi Shiva,
    your second problem should be resolved, if you apply all available Patches to XI 3.0 (i.e. until SP Stack 03). I guess, that also the internal error in Integration Builder will be resolved by applying the patches.
    There is an OSS note 670388 that explains how to patch XI 3.0. It should explain all your questions towards patching.
    I would suggest to apply all patches and then check again, if those errors mentioned still exist.
    Best Regards

  • Importing Flash Animations Into iWeb...

    I noticed that in the few days I have had the privilege of using iWeb, I have noticed that Flash animations that I have created only show up as links on the page, and not actual Flash animations (meaning, when wanting to show the Flash animations on a website, they only show up as a small link, and don't automatically run on the website....
    So, my question is this: Does iWeb support Flash animations? If so, how do you import them into iWeb without them simply showing up as links? Thanks in advance for your swift response....

    Just any theme download from a site is not enough. The 3rd party themes must be designed specifically for iWeb and, as such, should have an installer included.
    Otherwise, start with either the white, black, or formal themes and use graphic files from those themes to create a custom design.

  • Importing Flash buttons into Flash

    I've created a nice button as a movie clip in Flash 10 CS4
    Actionscript 3 so that the button changes with mouse_over and it
    all works fine, both with Test Movie and separately playing the swf
    file. The problem is I want to use this button in a variety of
    Flash applications. I thought all I would have to do was to export
    the button as swf and then import it into the new Flash program as
    a button symbol and add the ActionScript code for mouse_click etc.
    I didn't expect to be able to edit the button in the new program,
    but I thought it would run OK. What happens is that the button
    appears, but all the movie clip behaviour is missing -- it's just a
    static object that doesn't respond to mouse_over. I've tried
    importing it as a button and as a movie clip -- neither works.
    Given my primitive experience of ActionScript and Flash, the only
    work around I can think of is to put all the ActionScript code for
    the button in each application. This will be a big task, as various
    layers and scripts are involved.
    There must be something simple that I am missing, but I can't
    seems to find this problem addressed anywhere. Most people seem to
    want to use their Flash buttons in non-Flash applications like html
    web pages. Help, please, from someone who can make Flash sing and
    dance (or at least more than I can) ...

    You can copy and paste any item in the Library of one movie
    to the Library of a second movie. If you do that, you can get the
    button into your new movie. You will still need to bring the
    actionscript over from one movie to the other. You can do this in a
    similar copy and paste manner.

  • Importing Flash animation into Catalyst

    Is Catalyst yet capable of importing and using movie clips made in flash, or it can only use static images on layers from Photoshop and Illustrator?  If not, I'd like to say that I really like the idea of making Flash animation movie clips how I usually do, but then being able to utilize them in the Catalyst environment.  So for example le't say I want to create rollover animations for buttons, could I make that in Flash and then bring that into Catalyst?
    Also, do I need CS4 to use Catalyst?  Thanks.

    Hi,
    Creating transitions in Flash Catalyst does not require writing any ActionScript code.  Although animation in Flash Catalyst is most commonly created via state transitions, you can also create animation without states by using an action sequence (which you can trigger from any interaction, just like a state transition).
    Here are some video tutorials introducing animation in Flash Catalyst:

  • Import flash animation into edge animate

    Hi,
    I need to import a flash vector cartoon style animation into edge animate, do you know how can I do it?
    Kind regards,
    eugenxi

    Hi eugenxi,
    You can use the Export Png Sequence feature included with Flash CS6 to export a series of pngs from your symbol animation (tut by Tom Green):
    http://layersmagazine.com/png-sequence-from-flash-cs6.html
    Then import the pngs to Fireworks, and use John Dunning's plugin to export a symbol directly to Edge Animate:
