External .swf into a flash presentation

Hey guys and girls!
I got a question here. I made a small flash intro 2 weeks ago
and saved it into a .swf. Now I am doing a flash presentation with
many slides for a client and I want to put the intro into the first
slide. I am doing a symbol/movie clip and after the movie is
loaded, it does not switch slides...
Thanks a lot,
Antoine

I think this is what you're looking for...
stop();
waitI=setInterval(waitF,5000); // <- will wait for 5000
milliseconds
function waitF(){
clearInterval(waitI);
_root.gotoAndPlay("specificFrameLabel");
could be completely wrong though.

Flash beginner... insert SWF into web page and create play button

I am trying to insert and SWF into my webpage. I have 3 problems, 1. I am new to flash and aren't any good at it yet. 2. How do I tell the movie to stop at the end, and insert a "play again" button? 3. What do I need to do to insert that into my webpage.
I realize these aren't yes or no answers, so I even appreciate input on the best way to learn Flash for myself.

2. It can depend, but snce you are probably using the timeline, most likely you just need to put a stop(); command in the last frame to have it stop at the end.
To get it to play again, your button's function code will need to include something like: gotoAndPlay(1);
How the button code gets done depends on which version of Actionscript your file is using.
3. When you publish your swf file, also have Flash publish an html file (you set this up in the Publish Settings). You can then take that html file and copy the embedding code it contains into your web page html file. You may have to include a javascript file as well to make it work, and you can tell that by looking in the head code of the html file Flash created... that head code also needs to go into your web page html file and the javascript file needs to be placed according to how your html code targets it.
You might do best just to get the html page Flash creates working for you first. It might make figuring out how to move it into your web page easier.
My opinion: the best way to learn Flash for yourself is to just dig in and keep at it. You will lose hair and sleep and your mind as you go, but eventually you either get used to that and/or you overcome it.

How to insert SWF into Presenter.

Hello everyone.
I've got a very nasty issue. I created a slideshow in
Captivate and saved it as SWF file.
When I try to import/insert SWF in a presentation (in
Presenter) as "slide animation", I get nothing - the SWF still
isn't imported.
Also, I can do import SWF, when choose the "insert as sidebar
animation" option.
Any ideas how to insert SWF?
I use PowerPoint 2007 and Captivate 3.

Are you facing this problem for this Captivate createdswf or
other swf file as well ? By other swf file i mean created using
Flash Authoring or any other tool.
Also check if swf plays in slideshow of PowerPoint when
inserted using Presenter.

Insert SWF into PowerPoint 2010?

When I wanted to insert a SWF into a PowerPoint 2007 presentation, I would use the More Controls dialog in PowerPoint's Developer tab to insert a Shockwave/Flash object. But in PowerPoint 2010, that control is missing from the dialog. Where did it go? When I click the Register Custom DLL, there's no obvious file to choose, either.
Has anyone else run into this? I'm not looking for a way to convert a SWF into a video that can be embedded or using a 3rd-party plug-in or anything like that. I know how to do those things. I'm specifically looking to insert a SWF using only what's built into PowerPoint and Flash, so if anyone has info on it, please let me know!

I have installed PowerPoint 2010 beta release on my machine. I was able to attach a SWF file to the presentation successfully. All options to insert a video are located on the Insert tab, in the Media group. Please refer to the link below on how to insert a flash movie to the presentation.

Also Microsoft have provided support for Flash in PowerPoint 2010. To find the list of supported formats please visit the following link:

Insert SWF into new document

I want ot convert a SWF created in Captivate into an avi. It
seems that the simplest way is to import it into a Flash doc and
export as an avi, but I don't know Flash well. I wish I had a day
to get up to speed on it, but for now, quick, easy instructions are
what I need. I don't need any controls. I don't have a skin. It's
essentially an animated card with music that we're sending out to
some of our trainers to thank them for their help.
Thanks for any help!!

Wow, that's some of the more optimistic code I've seen in a while.
A Word document is a binary file, you cannot simply insert text into the middle of a binary file and expect it to work, that's not how they work unfortunately. You might be able to read an RTF file in, but I don't think they support images.
Could you use a plain text file as the source and a PDF as the output? That'd be easy. Or even just use CFDocument to create a PDF with the images, then print that. Does it actually need to be Word?

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 to embed Flex swf into existing Flash?

Hello,
I am brand new to Flex, so I desperately need your help!
I have an existing Flash file, written in Flash 8. When I
open this file, it plays in Flash Player 9, the latest player I
have installed on my machine.
This Flash file tries to dynamically load about.swf, a stub
file created by the designer. It works.
I am a programmer, so I want to create my own about.swf in
Flex 2 and then substitue the existing about.swf written in Flash
with my about.swf written in Flex. The problem is that the existing
Flash file just displays a blank when I try loading about.swf
written in Flex.
Is there any way to load SWF file written in Flex 2 into an
Flash file written in Flash 8?
Thank you for your help!!!
Evgueni

I think no.
Flash 8 uses Actionscript 2.0, but Flex 2.0 uses AS3. I think
these will be incompatible, as they use different VMs.
If the two swf's exist individually, in their res[pective VM,
you can communicate between them using LocalConnection.

HD Video into a Flash Presentation...

Hello Everyone
Sorry, I know this is off topic but I find myself bobbing at the deep end and I could use some help.
I've created a video which will be presented on a 50" plasma as part of a Flash presentation.
Can anyone share experience as to how to get the best looking output from flash? And the best route for getting the video in there in the first place. I believe I can go via .flv or H264 - any ideas as to preference / data rates etc?
My video is currently Uncompressed 720p25 and the presentation is built at 1280x720x25fps.
Thanks in advance.
Tall Jim

do you have CS4's Media Encoder?
"the presentation is built at 1280x720x25fps"
this is the presentation size, but what size should your video be? 25fps in Flash will be irrelevant to your video frame rate. (e.g. - flash's timeline could be set to 1fps, but your video will play at whatever it was encoded at.)
You can look into the JW FLV player:

Post back with more details.

How do you insert bullets into a keynote presentation?

see the following thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/5876208#5876208

I recommend Chapter 4 for starters.

Need Your Help with Loading SWF into another Flash Movie!

Hello,
I have created TWO Flash movies. They work just fine
individually, but I get problem when I put one into another one!
The main Flash is a Menu and the second one if a Photo Album.
The Menu is series of animation (Moving Objects) which finally
comes into rest and create the menu. The photo album is another SWF
file which is called with in the first Flash Movie (The Menu). The
SWF file is loaded as follow into the Main Flash.
MovieClip.prototype.drawRect = function(x, y, w, h) {
this.beginFill(0xFF0000, 100);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0);
this.endFill();
this._x = x;
this._y = y;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc6", 6);
mc6.lineStyle (3, 0x000000, 100);
mc6.drawRect(-77, -17, 20, 20);
mc6._xscale = 100;
mc6._yscale = 100;
loadMovie("photoAlbum.swf", mc6);
Problem arises when I click on the Play Button of the
photoAlbum.swf (Photo Album) since the execution of the play button
causes the Flash starts once again from the beginning of the entire
Flash Movie (Beginning of the animation creating the menu) and it
simply jumps into the Firm One of my Flash Movie.
Could you tell me how I can isulate what is in layer 6 (Where
the photoAlbum is loaded to) from the rest of my Flash Movie?
I hope I managed to explain my problem. I would like to take
this opportunity to thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Babak

Hello Anya,
I have realized the problem arises from the Wait Function
which causes the Photo Album to pause for a period of time (Two
Seconds) once a Photo is fully displayed (I have Fade in/out Photo
Album). I realized everything works OK once I remove the function
and rather left the Photos to be flipped without any pausing (This
is an Auto-loading Album which simply Flips the photos!).
Here is the Wait Function which is causing all the trouble.
function wait()
stop();
var myInterval = setInterval(function ()
play();
clearInterval(myInterval);
}, 2000);
Thank you so much for your help.
Cheers,
Babak

Importing SWF Into CS4 Flash Stage Results in text errors

I have a inDesign CS4 (.4 update) exported SWF that behaves badly when it is imported into Flash Pro CS4 (.2 update).
Hyphens in the text on word breaks are being changed into question marks. Font used is Arial.
The SWF ( attached) views fine in Flash Player 10, but produces the errors when imported to the stage. I have tried all settings (Text to Vector Paths, Text to Flash text) but the result is the same. Rasterizing the text is unacceptable because text quality is severely reduced on zooming the Flash document.
If you try importing the attached SWF to a blank file stage, you will see the errors on page 3.
So far, the only fix I have is creating all text in flash.
Any ideas?

Did you read the original post?
I'm creating an Emagazine in InDesign CS4. There is no option to imbed fonts in the exported SWF, nor should there be any need there as the same computer system is creating the flash magazine. I have tried both Arial and Times fonts with the same end result. The Emagazine works just fine with the exception of the font issue.
In the original post, I also attached examples of the issue. If you open the SWF in Flash player, it shows the correct fonts. Once imported to the stage in Flash CS4, the errors appear.

Inserting photos into a powerpoint presentation

Hello,
I just returned from a Powerpoint class. I was trying to create a presentation by inserting my photos but my computer started to overheat and the scroll bar started to blink. The teacher said that I was using too much RAM memory and suggested that I decrease the size of the pictures. She also said that my powerpoint presentations are text based. I would like to create a presentation for my students at school.
I am using a Mac Lapbook

Since PowerPoint is not an Apple product you should really consider posting your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Office:Mac products, as they would be geared more toward your issue than an Apple forum:

Insert .swf into a slide

Really new to Captivate...sorry for such a simple question but I can't seem to find the answer any where.
When I Insert / Animation and grab my flash game I can't seem to get the slide to stop long enough for it to play. I need the slide to "stop until user clicks next". I've messed around with a click box but that seems more like a "work around" than the actual answer. Is that the correct way or is there a setting somewhere that I can un-check? Thanks for the help.

The default behaviour of a Captivate slide is to continue playing unless paused by the user via the Playbar button, or via an interactive object such as a click box or button placed on the slide. Interactive objects have a pause point shown on the time line. When the movie gets to this point it will stop playing temporarily until the user clicks the object.
It's not a workaround. It's just the default behaviour of a typical Captivate movie.
