Interactive .swf in an interactive .swf, is it possible?

I'm building a portfolio for my Digital Arts program. What I
need to do is place and existing, interactive .swf (or if I need to
change that, its fine, I have the Flash file) into a new Flash doc.
I want it to maintain its interactivity and not play through itself
automatically. I would like to allow this to happen in the main
window, if at all possible.
When I import the .swf, it comes in with all of its layers.
When I test scene, it just starts playing through as soon as it
comes into existence. I've tried changing it into a graphic with a
single frame play, but then it is just a static image. I've also
tried reexporting the original as a Quicktime VR, but then when I
import it, it is a string of key frames.
I'm using Flash 8 Pro.
Any help on this issue would be brilliant. Thanks.

Try to load it in level as levels can run independent to each
other.
Look up "loadMovieNum" action in your help files for details.

  • Interactive PDF: Is this possible in InDesign?

    Hi all,
    I have been tasked with creating an interactive PDF for a project.
    We would like to produce something similar to the print screens attached (I have removed all content).
    Basically we would like to create click/rollovers on the page, which trigger caption/further reading boxes. Obviously we would like to use the side navigation bar to trigger other pages in the document.
    I have looked around online but it may be that i'm not using the right search terms. I have found a few tutorials and had a try, but none of them seem to do what we are looking for.
    Also once I had added interactivity, none of the functions would work once exported to PDF, but they did work in the flash viewer. It may be that my settings need tweaking.
    I'm sure this is a very simple job, and having to post is my last resort - i'm usually up on things like this, promise!
    Thank you in advance for any help.
    Dave

    I think it could be accomplished with interactive PDF if you chose Show/Hide fields.
    Do a Google search on "show hide fields InDesign tutorial"
    BTW, only the actions at the top and at the bottom of the Actions list in the Buttons & Forms panel can be used in PDF files. The ones in the middle are only for Flash (SWF).

  • Interactive Report - is it possible to stop a column being hidden?

    I have an interactive report region where i have a column that has a link that performs an action, in this case it links to a screen where the user can then add a row. I want to make this column mandatory and not let the user hide it. I can remove other functionality, but cant seem to control the hide/show functionality.
    anybody got any ideas?

    Dear Hemanth,
    To your question:
    "Is it possible to stop a campaign from being cancelled if it has purchase orders attached to it, using standard functionality".
    This might be possible with a BADI implementation. In enhancement spot CRM_MKTPL there exist a BAdI CRM_MTKPL_OL_OBJ where the interface method CHECK_BEFORE_DELETE is offered.

  • Controlling external .SWF...Possible??

    Hello,
    I have an .SWF file which I created using the Flash Slide
    Presentation document type. It consists of a number of screens. I
    need to load this .SWF file into another Flash movie and control it
    with actionscript, but I do not know the code. Could someone please
    give me a hint at the code needed for simply getting this movie to
    jump from one slide/screen to another? Or point me to a good
    tutorial?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, the loaded movie is accessible via the name of the
    movieclip it gets loaded into. E.g., if you have an MC called
    'ballMC', and load the second movie with
    ballMC.loadMovie("ball.swf");
    you can access it with
    ballMC.moveBall();
    But the movie has to be completely loaded, so you should make
    sure it finished loading before calling it's methods. Also, code in
    the frame of the loader movie will execute before the code in the
    loaded movie. E.g., if frame 1 of the ball movie says
    this.foo = "bar";
    the variable will only be set after all code in the frame of
    the loader movie is executed, so you can't use 'foo' in that frame.
    To make sure the movie is loaded, use preloading code or the
    MovieClipLoader class, which provides events that signal when the
    movie is loaded (onLoadInit).

  • Interactive Report - Is it possible?

    Hi again, I wondered if it possible in SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2, to create a report which an end user can input Comments into.
    The comments would be free text and wouldn't for part of the Views/Table where the Datasource comes from. This is purely a report is created and a user has the option to enter a comment which can be fed back to the Analyst who
    created the report.

    Hi ProfessorFudger,
    According to your description, you want to create a report that the end user could enter the comment, then the comment could be sent to the report creator, right?
    Reporting Services is used for rendering the report with data retrieved from datasource. In Reporting Services, we can retrieve data from the datasource then design a report, after the report processed, data is fixed on the report. So it’s not supported
    to have the end users enter comment and fed back to report creator. For your requirement, it can’t be achieved currently.
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • Streaming interactive swf files using Adobe Media server

    Hi!,
    I have some swf files which are interactive. Is it possible to stream them using adobe media server via http or rtmp? Will the resulting stream be interactive? I have to play this streams on android devices. If not possible, is there any other way?
    I'm using 5.0.3 version of Media server. Our Android devices are Jellybean and ICS.

  • Paramerterized Interactive Reports - is there a quick solution to stop the query from executing when entering the page prior to user clicking go.

    Example
    Currently, when the user enters the page the interactive report runs (without the user hitting "go")and - indicates no data found because one of the "parameterized" fields is required and the sql is not setup for nulls.
    I'm Looking for a way to not perform a query  at all -------until the user hits go for the first time on the page - then each time they re-enter the page in the same session it would be ok to auto submit the query.
    I believe I can setup a hidden item and check on my interactive report E1 not null.  Then create a "computation" on "after submission" that would set this value to a value - say 1.
    I can seem to be able to get this to work however.
    In my interactive report - I'm wondering what "condition type" should I be using.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    In this case I just have 2 parameters.  The goal is to allow the user to "pre filter" BEFORE rendering the interactive due to the possible size of the report.  This pre fliter could be by say- order type or region or branch etc.
    Right now, I believe its all one region - see below.
    My first attempt, I put a branch on the after submit on the go button and then put a condition on the interactive report.  This worked but caused a looping issue when trying to select a column on the interactive report itself.  My guess is , because that drop down was also using that same go button.
    Anyway, please advise how to best  "pre filter" prior to rendering an interactive report.  Should I have two seperate regions or can I use one region.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • Load external swf thats AS3 in a AS2 swf

    i have a website made in actionscript 2, and now i need some

    cuz it doesnt seem to work

  • Adding a link within an interaction

  • Load swf file in as 2

    hi i want to in site.swf flash file load picture.swf flash
    and show it in middle of site.swf is it possible?and can somewone
    help me to how do this or give an example link

    That's pretty straight forward, just use the code snippet
    below
    _root.createEmptyMovieClip("newMC", getNextHighestDepth());
    newMC.loadMovie("yourswf.swf", this);
    newMC._x = Stage.width / 2;
    newMC._y = Stage.height / 2;
    With the code above your newMC which has been created via
    actionscript is loading any swf files into it, and positions the
    movieclip exactly in the middle of the stage.

  • Accessing External swf's library items

    Hi,
    I am Using AS2 having a Main swf in which i am loading
    external swf (I want to access the loaded swf 's library item in
    the main swf is it possible), means i want to attach a movieClip
    from the second swf, to the first is it possible.

    Thanks kglad. It seems that we are bumping up against the
    limitations of Flash for building complex applications (and not for
    the first time). I come from the Java world, where doing something
    like this would be a no-brainer. Claus Wahlers has developed an
    AS3 class to
    solve this very problem, but unfortunately we are restricted to
    AS2 at the moment.
    Still, I'm surprised that no one else here has encountered
    this issue. For instance, someone who was writing a Flash video
    game that loads a new set of assets after each level cleared would
    need some way to do this.

    Hi Atul_Saini,
    So I checked your link and all seems correct on my computer.
    At the bottom of the link you provided there is "see also" section, about activation / deactivation.
    I did not deactivated my licenses before my window re-install, and if now I go to Flash Builder -> Help , desactivation button is greyed out. Could it be the source of my problem that I used my licenses on two computer and did not deactivated them ?
    If yes, how could I deactivate thoses products ? I searched on my profile but I can't find a way to do it.
