Importing images into Flash

I am importing images into Flash only to discover that the images (1280 x 720) are not centered on the stage. Most of the time the images are off centre by a few pixel widths or in some cases by an inch or more. I can't get them to centre unless I clear the stage and import a few times.
Is there a way to import and have the images framed perfectly within the stage.
I'm currently using Flash CS5.5
Thank you.

You can also click the two blue boxes icon under the Timeline and then drag select the whole timeline and that will let you select all your frames at once. then just position them all where you want them at the same time. I attached a screen cap of the area I'm talking about. It's right after the two white boxes.

Importing Images into Flash CS4 from Photoshop 7

Hello,
I've created an image in flash, basically the image is a ring which has then been divided into 3 equal segments, each segment exists on its own seperate layer with and has a transparent background. I want to make ach of these segments into a button on flash, so I've imported them across and converted them into buttons, however the problem I have is that when it gets imported into flash, it creates a box around each segment which is what flash sees as the full button, this means when you roll over a blank piece of the segment flash recognises it as rolling over the button. Is this just an inherent problem from importing from photoshop into flash or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Sean

Check the settings:
Edit/Preferences.../PSD File importer...
And then load the *.psd file without the background.
And certainly there is no change in flash...

Color inconsistency importing images into flash cs6 - cs4

After much experimenting I can't seem to solve this issue - imported images get tinted in an undesirable/inconsistent way when imported and published within flash.
images look consistent traveling between photoshop / image preview / illustrator / etc.
they also look fine on co-workers versions of flash -
the image in cs6 ( see the inconsistency between the library and the stage ) ...https://www.dropbox.com/s/ssjhvrjad9udc27/Screen%20Shot%202014-05-06%20at%205.18.13%20PM.p ng

I need to use cs6 or earlier since I am working in as2 ... this is driving me crazy and not sure what to do to solve this -
... oh, and my cc bridge color settings are set to North american/web though I don't believe it should affect cs6 and below https://www.dropbox.com/s/vem8dey694wkwon/Screen%20Shot%202014-05-06%20at%205.38.56%20PM.p ng
thanks in advance for any suggestions -

this is an interesting article - I learned a bit more about how browsers + flash handles color ... however it didn't directly apply to my issue
thanks -M

Cannot import images into Flash Catalyst 5.5 on Windows 7 64bit

Hello,
when i try to import any image (i tried it with .jpg .png and .psd) i always end up with a placeholder image on my stage that looks like this:
Can anyone tell me what might be wrong? When i load files that i created with the first version of catalyst i get the same result. All the images are replaced by the placeholder image
Edit: I just installed it on my old Windows XP System and it's working fine.

Hello Chris,
i just tried it with a blank project. My code looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The image is present in the assets folder: (Chrysantheme.jpg)
I can doubleclick the image-name and get a preview of it. It seems to have importet correctly.

When importing an image into Flash, the filesize is reported incorrectly

I saved an image from Photoshop using "Save for Web" and managed to bring the filesize down to 56.5kb. When I import this image into Flash and click on the properties, the reported "Original" filesize is 1884.6kb which is a heck of a lot more. How can I import the image and retain the filesize without having to compress the image further causing a horrible quality image?

right click one of your bitmaps, click properties and tick "allow smoothing". retest.

Importing movie into Flash

Does anyone have any knowledge of importing movies into
flash?
I have a movie streaming in my flash file but when some
people open the exe they only see black when the movie should be
showing. And some others can see the movie. Any thoughts?

you can import them as an image sequence, then create a movie
clip out of it. File-->import-->import to stage.. Then select
all the images, and it something should pop up asking if you are
trying to create an image sequence, select yes.

Importing Images in Flash CS 5?

Hello ! I want to make a slidshow presentation for my project, and i am using Adobe Flash Pro CS5 for this purpose. I am new to Flash Pro CS5 and I have been referring to Lynda.com Flash Professional CS5 Essential Training: from all those videos i found to my interest was Creating a Slideshow Project. So on one of the video it shows how to create a guide lines and import images and editing them one by one. Please download the video, but i am having trouble understanding it.
My question is :
1)Which template is he using , is it Animation, Presentation, Action Script 3.0 or Flash Lite 4
2)Import Images and Distribute to Layers. (*Video starting from 1:22, how did he do it, i tried Distributing to Layers after selecting 14 images and i end up with error. "Could not complete operation because of unknown error.)
Could someone enlighten me, how its done. I am getting late for my project. Here is the link.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/bijp02x7v28g6xo/2202_Importing_photos_into_Flash.rar

Hello Desktopuser
the stage he is using appears to be a normal stage with no transitions that I can see. You have the option when starting a new project to use a "Simple" or "Advanced" template that have built in AS 3.0 controls to control the way the movie performs. Both of these have built in instructions on how to use them with the images basically going into a pre determined MC (movie Clip). You would place your images into this MC and put each image into its appropriate frame.
as for importing the images, not sure why your getting that particular could not complete message but my guess is that the images you are using may not be optimized for useage for Flash. meaning you may need to save them in a jpg, gif, png, etc.. format from photoshop and then import them into Flash. Make sure the files aren't huge in size as well. Not sure how many images your bringing in either so you may want to take care if your bringing in more then say 20 at one time.
hope it helps some

When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour. Can someone help?

When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour. Can someone help?
This is happening even with photos that were taken on another camera, not just mine. My daughter told me that the laptop recently fell. The yellow streak is not anywhere else on the laptop, just on the photos in LR.

I have had this problem on my desktop. I have been attempting to reproduce it where it can be debugged. Here are some observations/facts in my environment--no conclusions:
1. I do not import from camera or memory stick directly into LR. I copy all images (using Explorer) from camera to two different locations (backup location first); and then my working area. In both cases, after files are copied I mark them Read-only.
2. Poor observation, but in any event: the issue has only occurred when I do a large number of images. Its a poor observation as I have no exact number. I suspect when I do less than 50 always works well every time. However, I have also done some very large imports without issue.
3. Error only occurs with my RAW images--for me that's NEF. I have multiple cameras--those that only capture jpg images have never had an issue in LR.
4. Even if the file is marked Read Only issues can still occur. I then remove the image from the disk using LR -- and then manually (Explorer) copy in my backup image -- re import again and all is well. I think one time I exited LR and replaced the bad file with a backup and restarted LR and all was well again.
5. When it occurs I have performed a HASH value on the broken file and on the backed up file to determine if the file contents has changed--and each time the file contents has changed.
6. I have had this occur immediately after import, but most often it occurs like this... import large number of images; Make changes in Development Module on random image, export jpg of changes--exit LR. Open up LR and file is corrupted.
7. I have had this issue on multiple USB drives ( okay just 2 different drives have been tested ).
What next--fire up Process Monitor and monitor the system (specifically LR) to see if it reports any file open for write access when this occurs. So, far I have not had process monitor actually running when it occurs--one of these days.

Importing mp4 into Flash 8, converting to FLV

I just finished taking a Flash Video class where I understood
I could import an MP4 and convert in to an FLV using encoding tools
that come with Flash Professional 8. However, I opened a new FLA
just now and tried to import an MP4 (File -> Import Video),
Flash would not recognize the sample MP4 I have sitting on my
desktop.
I downloaded a demo copy of On2 FlixPro and it did recognize
the MP4, is converting it to an FLV as I write this.
Did I misunderstand about importing MP4s into Flash 8
Professional? Is it in fact not possible. Or might there have been
something I didn't do or didn't do correctly before importing? If
so, what might it have been?
Thanks in advance.

chris_whalen,

The MP4 file extension does not appear in the filetype
filter of the
Import dialog, but if you select "All Files (*.*)," that
should work. I've
imported MP4s (they're MPGs, after all), but the extension
doesn't appear
under the "All Video Formats" choice. (I'm hoping this is
what you mean by
"would not recognize," anyway.)

What is the best format to import images into iBA? How should I compress my images before importing? What is the best file format? PNG? Jpeg?

What is the best format to import images into iBA? How should I compress my images before importing? What is the best file format? PNG? Jpeg? I'm trying to figure out the best file format / compression for importing images into iBA. Also, does anyone know how iBA will compress the file? Are the assets attached (like a website) or flattened out? Does anyone know how iBA handles this? Many many thanks to anyone with insight into this.

This question is largely answered by the following thread...

Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc

Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc
I have installed lightroom cc and having trouble imortera images from my Canon 1DX.
Lightroom starting the capture, but then nothing happens more, if I turn off the camera, I get error message photo 100-200 could not be loaded.
Now I have left lightroom 5 and where the input port works fine.
What happened to the upgrade from Lightroom 5 to lightroom cc?
The camera has the latest software.

I've now tested in various ways.
First, I have images on both memory cards in the camera.
Test1) Selects Not all of the photos in the camera at the input port bearings, it seems to work fine.
Test 2) selects all cards in the camera and then get the following, Lightroom starts inportera short but stops and nothing happens (Fig.1).
I turn the camera off after a while and get the next meddelnade (picture 1)
Which can be translated:
"The following files were not imported because they could not read (351)
Property 1-100
etc. "

How to import images into BLOB datatypes

Please help me i'll be thank full.

CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY images AS 'C:\IMAGES';
CREATE TABLE test007 (column1 BLOB);

DBMS_LOB.fileclose(l_bfile);
COMMIT;
END;

I know your original pl/sql routine contained a COMMIT, but did you use the same code with the COMMIT? If not, are you checking the table from a different session?
I ran your same code and it worked without issues. Are saying if you do a SELECT COUNT(*) from test007 it returns zero rows?

Auto import images into aperture...and continue importing...

i know that there is a script to import images into aperture, but i need to use this with a tethered camera....so i use a canon app to shoot files to a folder and as the files come in, i need them to get imported as they keep coming in....i am only referencing them, so they are actually staying within the folder....i can import the files but i don't know how to/which command "keeps checking the folder for new files that came in" hope this makes sense....
i know that there is a "hot folder" app available which seems to be a automator app, but it is superslow and only brings in every 4th or 5th image (and sometimes just brings everything to a halt...)
