Labeled Frame CuePoint Navigation

I have 2 systems with Flash 8 on them. On one system when I
try to use the FLV playback componenet and the Labeled Frame
CuePoint Navigation behavior I get an error code. When I take the
same file and use it on the other system it operates as it should.
I can't put my finger on what is different from one system to the
other. Can anyone give any insights? The error code experienced is
below:
**Error** D:\Documents and Settings\g4yr4y5\Local
Settings\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash
8\en\Configuration\Classes\FP7\Video.as: Line 18: The same member
name may not be repeated more than once.
function play(fileName:String):Boolean;
**Warning** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 30:

IMHO, if your concern is about "maintenance", you should use
flat pages
rather than frames and look into using external files:

Beginner: Need Help : Label Frame

Beginner: Need Help : Label Frame
Hi everyone,
I am trying to find a way to get my menu bar working. Little info, I am a beginner in Flash just learned the essential DVD from Adobe.
My menu bar has the following:
(About Us) (Services) (Quality) (Projects) (Contact Us)
Each page will have a motion shape tween and slide the page down.
I have type in this actions :
stop();
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//---aboutus Button Timeline change---\\
aboutus_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutusClick);
function aboutusClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay("aboutus");
//---services Button Timeline change---\\
services_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, servicesClick);
function servicesClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay("services");
//---quality Button Timeline change---\\
quality_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, qualityClick);
function qualityClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay("quality");
//---projects Button Timeline change---\\
projects_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, projectsClick);
function projectsClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay("projects");
//---contactus Button Timeline change---\\
contactus_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, contactusClick);
function contactusClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay("contactus");
This actions only works when I click to the next labels but doesn't work when I want to click back to the previous labels. For example, if I click onto (About Us) to (Services) and (Services) to (Quality) and (Quality) to Projects and (Projects) to (Contact Us)... it all works. If I then click from (Contact Us) back to (Projects) or even any previous buttons... it does NOT work??
Anyone? Please help!

This is my timeline structure. The code for the action frame is in hi-lite in yellow.
Is this clear enough?
I also tried rewriting the action like below, but still have the same problem.
stop();
aboutus_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onaboutusClick, false, 0, true);
services_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onservicesClick, false, 0, true);
quality_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onqualityClick, false, 0, true);
projects_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onprojectsClick, false, 0, true);
contactus_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, oncontactusClick, false, 0, true);
function onaboutusClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("aboutus");
function onservicesClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("services");
function onqualityClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("quality");
function onprojectsClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("projects");
function oncontactusClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("contactus");

[CS3 JS] Get filename of image in a labelled frame

Hi,
I can easily get the content of a labelled text frame using
var myString = app.documents[0].textFrames.item("myLabel").contents;
Is is possible to get the name of an image placed into a similarly labelled graphic frame?
One way I thought of doing this is to look at the parent frame of each link in the document and test to see if it is labelled "myLabel" and then get the name of the linked file.
There must be a simpler way.
simon Kemp

You can create an array of all text frames labeled "myLabel" like this:
myArray = app.documents[0].textFrames.item("myLabel").getElements()
Then you can cycle through that array checking if an element has a graphics in it: if (myArray.graphics > 0)

How to change label of Detailed Navigation

Hello Forum Friends,
I have en EP 6.0 on WAS 640 SP19 on Netweaver 2004 , and I have structured a navigation hierarchy with a 2 level Top Level Navigation and with a third level in the Detailed Navigation, so that the third level constructs itself in the Detailed Navigation. But I need to figure out if I can change the label of the Detailed Navigation Iview, this is if I have in the Detailed navigation nodes relating to years, instead of having the Detailed Navigation Name in the name of the iview it displays Years as label, also in another page if the nodes in the Detailed Navigation are related to (for example) months, it displays Months in the Detailed Navigation iview name , since my boss doesn't want to see the label Detailed Navigation, but he want to have a label related to the content that is displaying.
I don't know if I can change someting dinamically with the Detailed Navigation Iview to have this behavior or if you can provide another workaround for having this behavior.
Thanks in advance
Luis
Rewarding point will be given.

Hi Luis,
The non-programming way to do this is the following:
1. Make Deltalink or hard Copy of the DTN and place them in you customer specific namespace. Do this for every title you need.
Lets say for this example 3 (Year, Month and Week)
2. Rename the iViews as you want (Year, Month and Week)
3. Add these DTN iviews as Dynamic navigation iViews to a all the pages that they need to be visible with.
If you don't have all the content yet you could better create a page template and add the renamed iView to the different Page Templates. Then create the pages based on these templates. Saves time when you need to change something in the future
4. Create a copy of you Frameworkpage and remove the default DTN of it.
5. Assign this framework/desktop to everyone who needs these "special labeled DTN"
I hope you get what I mean with this... If you want to do this with programming you could remodel the SAP DTN or build your own DTN based on TAG libraries.
Good Luck,
Benjamin Houttuin

Labels in Detailed Navigation

I'd like a detailed navigation with labels.
I need something like sdn with some sections (Developer Areas, Formus, by example) which are opened.
Can I do that with detailed navigation iview? How can I configure it?
Thanks,
Damian

Hi Damian,
this is done by Dynamic Navigation, so in fact these are two iViews (not sure if it is really implemented this way on SDN or if it is a totally rebuilt DetNav). Anyhow, this would be the way you would implement it if using standard instruments.
See for details http://help.sap.com/saphelp_ep60sp2/helpdata/en/38/5dc53e5ae84d3be10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
To be exact: I think that the "Developer Areas" part here is the extra iView (dynamic navigation or, because it is not very dynamic, just an extra iView set on the inner page above the DetNav iView).
Hope it helps
Detlev

Remove Labeled Frame Not Working

Hi,
Please see below code and which is not working for me.
If myDocument.textFrames.item("myRemoveFrame") Then
delete
End If
Any one has any idea. What I am looking is to delete all text frame with the label name of "myRemoveFrame".
Regards,
Poo

Perhaps you should just tell what your code is supposed to be. I can only see it's not Javascript.
.. and which is not working for me. ...
That can mean anything. Why doesn't it work for you? Does it work for others? Does it work at all? Does it even compile?

Blu-ray flashing up last frame when navigating

hi people
I've got a small but rather ugly problem with a blu-ray disc i'm authoring.
When navigating to and from the main menu the last frame of the previous timeline or menu flashes up. So for example I'm watching timeline A and I hit the menu button on the remote the picture jumps to black for half a second, then flashes the last frame of timeline A for 5 frames and then proceeds to the menu. The same thing happens the other way, i'm browsing a menu and when I activate a button the screen jumps to black, then flashes up the menu again for 5 frames then starts playing the selected timeline.
The navigation works but the experience is super clumsy. Is there any way to smooth this transition. I don't mind the jumps, I just don't want the secondary flash of the last frame.
I should add that these are static menus with only a couple of buttons and very simple navigation. Playing on a Sony player, Sony burner, authored using Encore on a Mac.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
cheers../daniel

Hi,
I'm quite sure that Encore is doing some "quirks" with BlueRay.
I have everytime a 2/3 second freezing time when Buttons appears after looping time.
Probably due to bit differences that various BR player have. (I have a Sony).
I'm also quite sure you'll not have this problem if you burn a DVD (as I did and noticed).
Sorry, no ideas to help you but please post solutions in case you'll get.
Ciao

Frames and Navigator Bar

I have a JSP with two frames, top and mainframe. In the top frame, I have a navigator bar with a custom button on it that will invoke another JSP URL. I need to have the top frame remain showing so that when this button is clicked the mainframe frame gets the URL invoked. I have tried setting the setTargetUrl of the custom button to "mainframe". When I do this, the URL is invoked without the top frame. When I don't set this, the top frame invokes the URL and leaves the mainframe frame alone.
I have also attempted to place HTML code ahead of the bean <BASE TARGET="mainframe"> and that does not work either. Please help.

Hi!
Try to set target url like "yourUrl\" target=\"mainframe\""
But I think you need refresh and navigator frame too. So you must write script to do this. If you have luck - plese let me know.

Odd frames around navigation bar

Hi,
So far this forum has been so helpful! I am hoping someone can help a newbie here.
When I look at this web site that I designed in Dreamweaver, it looks fine in Safari but has these odd frames around the navigation buttons in Firefox. Can anyone offer me some advice?
Thanks!
Kathryn

Rather than posting a screenshot, it's always best if you post a link to the live site for these issues so we can see the page and code.
Even if the site is not ready to go live, upload to some temporary webspace, give us a link then pull the page down off the server.
At a guess, add the following to your CSS stylesheet
a img { border: 0; }

In CS5, why won't Action Script 3 allow me to add a stop(); code before my label frame?

This is something the CS4 book says I need to so that my animation stops at the photo when I click the button, rather than seeing it scroll through all the pictures at once. BUT, in CS5, it won't allow me to do this. I am wondering if it has to do with me having changed the action code from "gotoAndStop" to "gotoAndPlay" before I tried to add the stop(); command? I need the animation to stop at each photo as I click the link. The book I've been referencing is "Adobe CS4 Classroom In a Book" - Lesson 6, with the peacock photo gallery, for anyone who has that book. I don't know how to get this to work properly.

Here is the message I get when I try to add a stop command for each photo:
" In Acton Script 3.0, code cannot be placed directly on objects. Please select a frame or use the Code Snippets panel to apply code to the current selection on stage" .
I changed my AS3 code back to "gotoAndStop" but its still giving me this message. My first photo is on frame 20, so I clicked frame 19 in the action layer per the instructions, to add the stop command. It won't work still.
Now, in the textbook, it says to go to the frame immediately before my photo's frame, and add "stop ();" but it won't allow me to do this now. Also, in the book, when I added a tween, it doesn't add a separate layer in the examples for each photo. But it DOES when I actually add tweens to the photos.

Way to label frames on the timeline?

I would like to profile our app and be able to label key areas on the timeline to help other developers interpret it. Is there a current way?

Hi Dustin,
It is not currently possible, but this is an idea that was mentioned at some point inside the team. We agree that it would be a nice addition. We will keep this in mind for the future updates.
Thanks for the suggestio and the interest in Scout!

FLV/Mp3 Cue Points for Accessing Frame Labels on the Main Timeline in Flash 8

Hello,
In Flash MX2004, creating cue points for syncing locations on
flv and mp3 files to locations on the main timeline included:
1) Dragging a media component onto the stage
2) Entering file path, frame label name, and time code
information in the component inspector
3) Creating the frame label names on the main timeline, and
4) Enabling the Media Labeled Frame Cue Point Navigation
Behavior
Flash 8 documentation details a considerably different
process of creating cue points. While it discusses how to create
cue points in the flv, I have not been able to locate how to enable
linking locations in flv and mp3 files with frame labels on the man
timeline. It appears that there would need to be ActionScript
necessary to accomplish this that is not available in the docs.
Please advise what ActionScript/process would enable this
function.
Thank you!
James
[email protected]

I usually start off solving problems with the livedocs, as I
recommend for anyone. The following link will take you to the
NetStream.onCuePoint handler. This is what you need.
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context= LiveDocs_Parts&file=00002561.html
You can have this code on the main timeline. When the
cuepoint is hit, it will invoke this event handler and inside is
where your gotoAndPlay( ) should go.
Your other question about the text will get activated by the
same handler. Just have a conditional statement (if, switch, etc.)
to differentiate between the two events. The text itself can be
mask inside a movieclip.
Does this help?

CS2 JS - targetting frame labels within groups

I have some CS2 JS scripts that cycle through sequentially labelled frames but they fail if the target frame happens to be part of an object group.
Is it possible to target frames via their labels whilst they are still grouped together or perhaps grouped with other objects?
thanks
Greg

Hi Greg and Brett,
Here is what Robin said but in JS. It works even for nested groups.
Kasyan
var myDoc =app.activeDocument;
var myFrame = myDoc.textFrames.item("red");
// do something here
myFrame.fillColor = myDoc.colors.item("C=0 M=100 Y=0 K=0");
var myGroups = myDoc.groups;
for ( i = 0; i < myGroups.length; i++) {
   var myItems = myGroups[i].allPageItems;
   for ( j = 0; j < myItems.length; j++) {
      if (myItems[j].constructor.name == "TextFrame" && myItems[j].label == "red") {
         // do something here
         myItems[j].fillColor = myDoc.colors.item("C=0 M=100 Y=0 K=0");

How do I label a frame

I am using Director 8 and I am trying to figure out how to
label a frame. I already know how to create markers, but I can not
find how to makers. I am creating a electronic report and I want to
have auto numbering. I have markers 1 thru 50 with three frames
inbetween. I run the following script and all I get is 0. I have a
cast member "pagenumbering"
on enterFrame
member("pagenumbering").line[1]=the framelabel
end
I either need to figure out how to label frames, or, how to
insert the marker label into my text. Any help would be
appreciated.

Are you asking how to get the most recent frameLabel? That
would be
mostRecentLabel=getProp(the markerlist, marker(0))
Also, to delete a frameLabel, set it to 0, not an empty
string.

Find a text frame on the page with script label

hello to all
I need to create a script to
find a text frame on the page with script label "xxx"
and read its contents into a variable.
The content of the text frame is a number.
thanks

Hi Roberto,
Welcome to the forum,
This will find the labeled textFrame on the active page.
var myLabel = "Foo", // change to label
      myPage = app.properties.activeWindow && app.activeWindow.activePage,
      myTextFrames = myPage.textFrames.everyItem().getElements().slice(0),
      l = myTextFrames.length,
      myVariable
while (l--) {
    if (myTextFrames[l].label != myLabel) continue;
    myVariable = myTextFrames[l].contents;
    break; // presuming there's only one "Foo" labeled frame on the page
    // Otherwise you'll nead an array
alert(myVariable)
