"Import for runtime sharing" and dynamic loading of MC

Hello to everyone :)
I have a question that possibly is a bit strange, but I
really didn't found any info about it (that's why I'm writing a
post here).
So, I have five .swf files with different sections of one
project. I'm loading these movies only when they are needed. So far
nothing really special. The big question is: is there a way to
import a visual snapshot of them, or import them into the main .fla
so I can see them and align them without going to xx.fla and move
the MC i want.
I know that importing for runtime sharing, make the things
appear in the main movie, but how can I import them dynamically
only when I need them?
In other words I want to see the other movies in edit mode in my
main movie (this will be a HUGE facilitation for designing the
project) and to import them dynamically... if it's possible!
I hope this explanation is clear enough :) If it's not I'll
do my best to clarify it!
And I want to apology if this post is not in the right place!
Thank you for your time and attention in advance!!!
Best Regards,
Lyubomir Kirilov

Hi Frowin Keiser
I think the problema is the extension of file.
In the Internet Explorer (any browser you are using), go to the Save as...
Check if the extension is .xml

CS5.5 Import for runtime sharing and preview problem

Hello
I'm having a strange issue with CS5.5 and the import for runtime sharing settings. Here's what I'm doing: I create two .fla's, Export.fla and Import.fla. In Export.fla, I create a shape, select it, press F8 and tick export for runtime sharing, to create a really simple exported movie clip. I click the exported symbol in the library, press Ctrl-C, switch to Import.fla and press Ctrl-V. Everything ok so far, the symbol is imported for runtime sharing.
The first problem I have at this stage is that changes I do to the exported symbol in Export.fla are not reflected in Import.fla, only in the final .swf's I can see the changes. Also, unlike in CS4 and CS5 I cannot "Update" the imported symbol in the library right-click menu, to make changes to Export.fla visible in Import.fla. The menu entry is just greyed out...
So I tried to use Authortime sharing, in the Symbol Properties for the imported symbol in Import.fla. I link the source to the symbol in Export.fla, and once I do that, everything is completely borked. The previously imported symbol is no longer imported. Whenever it is changed in Export.fla, it gets an "Export for Runtime Sharing" tick in its Properties in Import.fla, and worst, it is not shared at runtime, like I need it to.
Can anyone tell me how to get the "normal" CS/4/5 behaviour in CS5.5: a runtime shared symbol, that can be updated in Import.fla (I dont care if manually or auotmatically) when I change it in Export.fla, and which also is runtime shared?
Cheers
Ulf

Hi, JonnyDiamond
Thank you for reporting the issue for runtime sharing settings affected by authortime sharing. It is fixed for parent symbols in Flash Pro CS6, but we just recognized it is not for nested items.
As an alternative to deleting and re-copying the symbol, we see the following steps restore the original settings of the nested bitmap symbol (png in your case) for importing runtime shared library. After you open Bitmap Properties dialog of the bitmap symbol, go to ActionScript section and:
1. Uncheck Export for ActionScript
2. Check Import for runtime sharing
3. Input the path to Library.swf in URL
4. Click OK twice
Please try these steps to see if they work for you. If they do, the simalr steps can be processed via JSFL script. It would be something like this:
//// To restore the settings to import runtime shared library //////
// Get Library items
var myItems = fl.getDocumentDOM().library.items;
// Store an item from myItems
var myItem;
// Path to runtime shared library. Change this to your path
var pathToRSL = "Library.swf";
// Go through Library
for (var i = 0; i < myItems.length; i++)
          myItem = myItems[i];
// Change the condition to suit to your Library
          if(myItem.itemType == "bitmap" &&
             myItem.name.split(".").pop() == "png" &&
             myItem.linkageExportForRS == true )
    switchRSSettings(pathToRSL);
// Disable Export for runtime sharing and
// enable Import for runtime sharing
function switchRSSettings(path)
          myItem.linkageExportForRS = false;
          myItem.linkageExportInFirstFrame = false;
          myItem.linkageExportForAS = false;
          myItem.linkageImportForRS = true;
          myItem.linkageURL = path;
///////////////////////// End of Script ////////////////////
We hope this would help you workaround the issue. Again, thank you for your report!
Thanks

AIR crashes on loading swf with 'Imported for runtime sharing' fonts

Hello everybody,
I have a trouble with an AIR application developped with Flex but the error seems to come from the Flash/AIR, after some searches a staff member (Flex harUI) said me that I could find more help for my trouble here.
I'm developping an AIR application which loads an external swf. This swf contains 'Imported for runtime sharing' fonts from another swf to reduce its size.
When the AIR application has finished to load (see message below) the whole application crashes without giving any error message except the usual "Process terminated unexpectedly" error message.
End Loading: [SWF] C:\Users\dev02\myProject\index.swf - 83,930 bytes after decompression
Error Message:
Process terminated unexpectedly.
Launch command details: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.6.0\bin\adl.exe" -runtime "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.6.0\runtimes\air\win" "C:\Users\dev02\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Languages_Editor\bin-debug\Language_Editor-app.xml" "C:\Users\dev02\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Languages_Editor\bin-debug"
I use Flash Builder 4 (build 272416) with sdk 4.6.
Full discussion here.
I tried to load the external swf with the most basics codes, it works with a Flash web app but not with a Flex/AIR app or a Flash/AIR app.
Thanks for the help !

Thanks for the anwser.
In fact, I cannot specify a swc because my main application is an editor of sub-applications where each one has its own library.
The bug remains when sharing a simple MovieClip too.
Maybe, if I explain my project it will be a little more clear.
I'm developping a multi-languages module / application.
For each module, I have an external xml for texts. So in order to add a new language we don't need to recompile, just to change texts in the xml. But, I had to externalize my fonts, (imagine if each swf contains the whole characters set like latin, cyrillic, etc.).
And then, I have my main text editor application above the module, which loads texts xmls and a preview of the page where we need to change the text. (This is where it crashes, during the process of loading the preview).
My editor works great for translating, changing texts, modify images but without the preview, what is really frustrating.
(not so ergonomic, I know...)
I hope it will help you to understand my trouble.

Import for runtime sharing issue - CS5.5 AS2.0

I would like to use export/import for runtime sharing option so I can reuse assets form one swf library in another timeline.
I found this tutorial that explains how to use it, there is also a download link to see the example working:
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Tips_And_Techniques/How_to_u-FreshLau-1000/
I do I think exactly the same as it is there, but it doesn't work. Strange thing is that if you open main.swf from downloaded project, it works, but if you open the main.fla and publish it wothout any changes even, it will stop working.
I have also discovered this problem with runtime sharing option. I have set up my movie clip runtime sharing option from library assets properties to import, as it showen in the picture below...
but after I click "Ok" and wait apropriate time to proces it, and when I reopen the properties panel of that movie clip I noticed that it has changed "Import for runtime sharing" to "Export for runtime sharing"it self: In addition it also adds "Export for Action Script" which I definatelly haven't choose before.
Any ideas anyone?
I gues this is some sort of a problem of flash newer Publish Settings incompatiobility with Flash MX 2004, in which this tutorial was made. although when you open it, you can see it is already stage is set up as AS2.0 and flash player 7. But I have also noticed, that once you open main.fla it is tagged with * symbol as it has not been saved. Anyway, the same occures when I build it from scratch in CS5.5 AS2.0.
I do not want to do it in AS3.0 because it apparantelly doesn't support attachMovie command.

Hi Szymon,
Our flash team and a few other flash clients have experienced this issue.
It is detailed here in this thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4000804
There is no fix however and Adobe have not commented on the issue (via twitter @adobe_care or on the forum). I contacted adobe support, paid for a support contract, reported the issue and pointed them to the thread but they wanted a video of it after many frustrating conversations (Did I mention that adobe support is -horrible-). Our flash team never generate a movie though regrettably, they still experience it/deal with it. It's frustrating to say the least but I am determined to get Adobe to say something about it.
Adobe make good products but getting support from them is like getting blood out of a stone. I wonder how many people experience the issue but haven't reported it?

Importing for runtime sharing

Hi,
I'm working on a project that involves having two swf files, one for a shared assets library and the other being the project swf, to allow the assets to be changed independently of the project and code.
The assets get exported for actionscript in the assets swf, and then 'imported for runtime sharing' into the project swf. I want to place the assets on the stage in the project swf and then access them in actionscript using their instance names (rather than doing getDefinitionByName(asset) as Class; )
This works fine for most of what I'm doing. However I run into trouble when I import a MovieClip asset that contains other MovieClip(s), as I can't seem to access the contained clips - it complains that they are null. Is there a way around this problem?
Thanks,

Why plugin/addon concept for Runtime Shared Libraries not implemented in Flex?

Hi All,
I am posting my refined query here in continuation to my post Fundamental and crucial drawback with Flex in Flex India Community as my last refined query was left unanswered though I feel there is a definite sense of purpose to it.
Why plugin/addon concept for Runtime Shared Libraries not implemented in Flex?
Here is why I feel it should be implemented in Flex.
Though Runtime Shared Libraries SWF file can be cached in the client browser and just need to be loaded only once when the user access a Flex application for the first time,
"40-60% of daily visitors to your site come in with an empty cache. Making your page fast for these first time visitors is key to a better user experience."
Qouting from 'Best Practices for Speeding Up Your Web Site' as described in Tenni Theurer's blog post Browser Cache Usage - Exposed!
While still retaining the cacheability of RSL's for compatibility reasons, flex should give the flexibility and thereby enhance performance by offering RSL's as a plugin/addon.
Looking for your comments and insigts on the same.
Thanks,
Ram Manoj Kongara.

I finally skimmed through the links you posted. The terms plugin and addon
are not in either of the articles so I'm unclear what you are suggesting.
The topic seems to be about application performance. The Flash Player
supports a cross-domain cache of actionscript libraries separate from the
browser cache. Each official release of Flex contains a set of these
libraries. As new Flash Player versions or new Flex versions are released,
and users visit sites utilizing those new versions, the browser picks up the
latest Flash Player and the Flash Player picks up the latest Flex libraries.
These days, it only takes a few months for a new Flash Player to achieve
major saturation in browsers although it still takes a bit longer for Flex
libraries to achieve saturation.
Adobe will soon be hosting these libraries so if you build your application
to leverage these libraries, you will find that the total download from your
server will be minimized, limited to only your application code and assets,
although you might want to serve the libraries in case they are not already
in the cache if you see high latency to the Adobe servers on a cache miss.
The SWF or SWFs you do serve off your servers should be optimized through
normal good application development practices. Flex provides features such
as deferred instantiation in its ViewStack and Accordion containers to defer
the creation of objects until viewed. Flex has a ModuleManager to allow you
to not download parts of your application until they are needed. A
model-view or MVC architecture will make it easier to create modular
boundaries within your application and leverage these features.
If I have not addressed your concerns please describe your issue in more
detail.

Business scenarios for daily, weekly and nightly loads!!

Can any body tell some Business scenarios for daily, weekly and nightly loads where we monitor the loads in Production support.
Regards
srikanth.ch

Hi,
It all depends on your business needs. In general on daily basis you will load the SD and MM which will cover all the stock and sales done for day. Generally most of the clients use Lo Cockpit extraction for both the modules. FI chains will run on month end for example the AP(Accounts Payable),AR(Accounts Receivable) chains will be run on the month end.
Some SD datasources : 2lis_13_vdhdr, 2lis_13_vditm, 2lis_13_vdkon - all these to pull billing related data
Some MM Datasource : 2lis_03_bx and 2lis_03_bf.

Spry Tabbed panels + Progressive Enhancement and Dynamic Loading of Content With Spry

Is there any way to combine tabbed panels together with "Progressive Enhancement and Dynamic Loading of Content With Spry"?
Visit: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/best_practices/progressive_enhancement.ht ml#updatecontent
And click on the "Using Spry.Utils.updateContent()"
The 3rd example shows how to use a fade transition whenever the content changes.
I already have tabbed panels. My menu contains buttons (on tabs) and my Content div contains the panels.
Tabs code;
<ul class="TabbedPanelsTabGroup">
          <li class="TabbedPanelsTab">
               <table class="Button" >
                    <tr>
                    <td style="padding-right:0px" title ="Home">
                    <a href="javascript:TabbedPanels1.showPanel(1);" title="Home" style="background-image:url(/Buttons/Home.png);width:172px;height:75px;display:block;"><br/></a>
                    </td>
                    </tr>
               </table>
          </li>
etc
etc
etc
and the panel code:
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent" id="Home">
     CONTENT
</div>
I hoped i can use the example code from the link into my tabbed panels.
I thought this code:
onclick="FadeAndUpdateContent('event', 'data/AquoThonFrag.html'); return false;"
could be added to the tab code like this:
<a href="javascript:TabbedPanels1.showPanel(1);" onclick="FadeAndUpdateContent('event', 'data/AquoThonFrag.html'); return false;" title="Home" style="background-image:url(/Buttons/Home.png);width:172px;height:75px;display:block;"><br/></a>
But the content doesnt fade...
I know i need to change the header etc.
The following is from the link:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:spry="http://ns.adobe.com/spry">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Aquo Events</title>
<script src="../../../includes/SpryEffects.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="../../../includes/SpryData.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
<style type="text/css">
/* IE HACK to prevent bad rendering when fading. */
#event { background-color: white; }
</style>
</head>
So i changed my header etc, put the SpryEffects.js and SpryData.js into position and nothing changed...
Is there a way to keep my tabbed panel (or change as less as possible) and let
A. The fade work
B. The loading work.
The problem now is that it loads all pages instead of only the home. Therefore i wanted this Progressive Enhancement.
And the fading part is just because its nice...

It doesnt show in the post but off course i changed this link;
"data/AquoThonFrag.html"
into;
"javascript:TabbedPanels1.showPanel(1);"
I must say i dont know if this even works...

Sounds like either the Display or Graphics chip, that will not be cheap to fix. Because it is a 2006 and getting on in years, it might be best to move whatever you want to keep over to your newer iMac using Firewire Target Disk Mode and let it rest in peace.

How do you grant permission for home sharing and authorizing? My mac did home share, but now says, "The required directory was not found or has a permissions error", when I try to authorize.

OK, I just got off of the phone with Apple and still no joy. They had me try a few things that did not work, then told me to Archive and Install, which did not either. Anyway, thanks for the additional help very note worthy, but still no joy. Also an email to iTunes Support took me here
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93061
I have a Users/Shared folder but since the files we are talking about are invisible, I can see how it is structured.
And by the way I tried this one
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3577004#3577004
and it did not work. However, when I install a fresh copy of Tiger on the external it did authorize the computer and was able to play the downloads. But coping the invisible file to my boot drive was not successful. But , like I said the music did play when I started up from the external. So I guess that may be my only solution, unless someone can tell what the correct directory is and where it for iTunes downloads.

Compiling a CSS into SWF without merged SDK and dynamically loading

I have a flex application that is built with the SDK merged in (for my own good reasons). This application dynamically loads a style SWF that was built without the SDK merged. Unfortunately, it seems that the loaded SWF fails to resolve its references with the SDK and gives me a 1014 run-time error.
If I merge the SDK into the CSS SWF then it works. If I set both my application and the CSS SWF to use the SDK as an RSL then it works. In short the matrix is:
CSS SWF, SDK merged?
Application, SDK merged?
Works?
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
No
Yes
No
Yes
No
No
No
Yes
I do not want a big CSS SWF to dynamically load with all the SDK in it when I already have the SDK loaded with my application. Any help much appreciated.

Hi,
In you rsl project properties, go to Flex Library Build Path and go to library path tab. Here you can edit your imported library. There's no need in RSL to import the libraries merge into code but external(even the Adobe libraries should be loaded as external) cause you load it already from your application project (as rsl or merge into code).
Bye!

Apple ID for home sharing and iTunes Store should be the same?

I've got 2 iTunes Store accounts, my girlfriend has one, and we're just moving in together.
A few questions ...
Can I create a 4th 'Apple ID' for our home sharing?
Would we still be able to listen to each others libraries?
Would we still be able to copy songs from one another, like I can with my 1 account between computers?
Are there any other downsides to creating a separate account for home sharing?
Thanks for your help.

Can I create a 4th 'Apple ID' for our home sharing?
