Need to stop cursor moving when external swf loads???

Hi, I am using a magnifying glass as part of my portfolio but when I click on another section and this loads an external swf above the main movie, because you can still see the main movie below, you can see the magify glass still moving as you move the cursor above??
you can see what I mean at :
www.zoeglazebrook.co.uk
any ideas how I can stop the magnify glass moving while i am on the external swf above?

OK, I wasn't following what that code was doing before, but try replacing all the code I gave you before with this (put it all on the timeline, and remove that function from the movie clip):
var mGInt;
magnifyingGlass.onPress = function(){
     startGlass();
function startGlass() {
     magnifyingGlass.startDrag("", true, 215, 120, 1080, 660);
     mGInt = setInterval(updateGlassImage,100);
function stopGlass(){
     magnifyingGlass.stopDrag();
     clearInterval(mGInt);
function updateGlassImage(){
     largeobject._x = (original._x-magnifyingGlass._x)*2;
     largeobject._y = (original._y-magnifyingGlass._y)*2;
     updateAfterEvent();
webBtn.onRelease = function()
     disableBtns();
     stopGlass();
     loadMovieNum("Advertorial/Advertorial.swf", 1);
function enableBtns():Void
      webBtn.enabled = true;
function disableBtns():Void
      webBtn.enabled = false;

Stop Cursor moving on Return?

How can I stop the cursor moving when pressing Return on a completed cell in a simple Spreadsheet. I fill a cell up, then press return and the cell below comes alive. How can I stop this from happening as default system or indeed as a system peculiar to a particular Spreadsheet?
Thanks

PS: It is Numbers 09, V2.1 and iMac with OSX lion 10.7.4.

select the table you want to change this behavior for, then open the table inspector and uncheck the "Return Key moves to the next cell" check box:

Need buttons on base movie to become inactive when external movie loaded

Hi,
I am working on a portfolio website and I have all my navigation with buttons linking to other pages, on the base level. All the buttons are scattered around the stage and when one of these buttons is clicked an external movie is loaded in the centre of the page.
The movie is a big white box with a slideshow of images from my portfolio in the centre of the stage.
My problem is that the buttons on the base level are easily clicked by accident, even though you cant see them with the white box.
Is there anyway I can stop the base movie clip working, once a button is clicked? When the user has finished looking at my slideshow images then they press a close button.
Code used for button on main timeline:
swfBtn.onRelease = function()
    loadMovieNum("graphicLayouts.swf", 1);
Code used for Close button on external swf:
on (release) {
     unloadMovieNum(1);

In your case I'd recommend writing the said above two function on main timeline. It should go something like this:
function enableBtns():Void
     BTN_1.enabled = true;
     BTN_2.enabled = true;
     // ... and so on
function disableBtns():Void
     BTN_1.enabled = false;
     BTN_2.enabled = false;
     // ... and so on
Now, in the function where you call the loadMovie method (it's on the main timeline, right) just write:
disableBtns();
And in the external swf file, where you unload your swf write:
_level0.enableBtns();
It should work if I didn't bug anything.

Do we need to stop DPM backups when updating SP2013 with CU

Hi - planning to install the Dec14 CU and want to know if it is required to Stop DPM protection when running PSConfig?
Our DPM guy says DPM protection cannot be paused - only stopped and this would remove the Protection group completely and we would need to reconfigure afterwards. He thinks that because DPM bacup is different to SQL in that it only reads the T Logs to synchronize
every 15min after the daly full backup at 8PM - so as long as we avoid running PSConfig when the full backup runs it should be no problem
I have always had SQL backups stopped when updating SharePoint - is the DPM guy right that I don't need to worry about DPM syncs?
Thanks
J

Hi,
As my understanding, your DPM guy is correct. DPM utilize VSS to protect your database, so there should be no impact when you upgrade SharePoint with DPM up. If you are not assured to do this, I suggest you set up an all in one test environment to test it.
Meanwhile, I would like to share the DPM Application Data Synchronization Process
for your reference.

External swf loader probs

HI, we have a situation which has done our heads in for two
days non-stop,
We have a pre-loader loading the area's and then have the
loadmovienum to load in additional swf's now when we use the nav
bar at the top of the page, it opens the right file but when it
loads the page it moves onto the next load movie for some reason
with out stopping, even though the stop command is in place....
We have uploaded the dodgy version which you can test and see
what problems we are having, the contact page is the same as the
service page for the moment, but you will see the contact page
display the "cloned" service page then it restarts the whole movie
Here are the URL's to the zip file with all the swf's and
fla's including the live what we have done so far online version.

PS WE ARE USING FLASH 8

Ok... I figured out how to get the swf to play correctly. I
changed my publish settings to Flash 8 Player. This worked in
getting the external swf to load... Now I ran into a new problem,
hopefully someone can help me with this.... I need the swf to load
in a VERY specific location, and at the EXACT scale as the original
swf file. I have attempted to accomplish this by opening the
original file that I am attempting to load. I selected all of the
elements on the page, and looking at the X and Y coordinates, as
well as the over all pixels measurement... then I placed these in
numerals in the fields for the loader component in the "mother"
file. I previewed it, and the placement and scale are wrong... how
do I overcome this?? How can I control where the loader component
loads and at what scale?

Problem with external swf loading

this is the code I'm using that works
onClipEvent(load){
this.loadMovie ("2.swf", "b");}
Text
and when I use another swf to load, it won't work anymore.
Any help would be apreciated

you can't decrease the total time it takes for you external swfs to load. you can start those swfs loading in the background (while on frame 1, for example) but you need to be careful to preload only 1 swf at a time and not restart its download if it's already been started.

Problem with Error 5005 and with external SWF loading

I am creating a relatively simple 10-12 minute animation. I've broken the animation into 34 different movie clips that I control on the timeline by using a timer delay.
When I try to export them all together I get the error:
",Line 1: Error 5005: Unknown Error optimizing byte code."
However, when I split the presentation into two halves with the same exact frames and code I don't have the problem.
I thought loading an external SWF at the end of the first movie would be a good way to connect everything. However, the SWF continuously loads and won't play through the way it looks when you open the actual SWF file.
This is my code for the external loading:
var xpos:Number = 0;
var ypos:Number = 0;
var swf:MovieClip;
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();// create a new instance of the Loader class
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("aamc-2e-slide1.swf");// in this case both SWFs are in the same folder
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, doneLoading);
myLoader.load(url);
function doneLoading(evt:Event):void
          trace("doneloading");
          swf = MovieClip(myLoader.content);
          stage.addChild(swf);
          swf.stop();

I have the same/similar issue whether the stop is there or not.
Yes, it is all on one frame.
Without the stop, the SWF just continously loops on top of itself.

External swf loader

Hey all,
In the site that I am designing. I am using a Loader to load
extenal swf's onto the background of my site.... I created the
loader, gave it an instance name, and then gave it a content path
to the swf file that I want to load. I previewed the page, and it
all loads fine in the "mother" file, but when the content is
supposed to load into the Loader, the loader simply turns opaque
white and nothing happens... what am I missing here?
Best,
Ken

How to detect the end of an external swf loaded into a container

Hi,
I'm having trouble finding a solution for this problem, can somebody help me?
I have a main swf that will load external swfs into a container. I need to detect the end of the loaded external swf in order to start to load and play a new one into the same container.
The problem is that i do not know what the length of the external swfs will be, and will have no control over the development of them, so i cannot place a variable at the end of their animation which would allow me to detect from the main movie its end.
I also cannot rely on the _totalFrames property because the loaded swf might not have all the animation inside its main timeline.
Is there any way to achieve this goal?
Thx

Ok... Its as i thought... unfortunatly...
Gonna mark your latest post again as possible solution, just in case someone comes with any sort of out of the box thing...
Thx for your help Kglad

External .swf Loading?

Hello.
I am having trouble making a button load an external .swf file!!!
I have a made a flash file, and in the navigation; once a Button is pressed it should load another .swf file but I can't get the Button to load another .swf despite numerous attempts, and Google searches!!
Can someone please tell me how to do?? :-o
Make a Button load an external .swf file once pressed!!?
I'm trying to do this in AS2!
Thanks so much!

in your event handler you will want code that looks like
loadMovie("circle.swf", mySquare);
mySquare is defined earlier as a movie clip. You can see the information about loadMovie here

What happened to the 'stop' icon? Firefox is so slow, I need to stop cursor swirl.

I am using Windows XP PRO 32 bit on a desktop
When I updated Firefox last week....(approx 86h May, 2014) so many things changed, one of these is now the cursor swirl is going all the time, well almost...about 80-% of the time I am on FF.........before, I could use the 'X' icon (stop) to stop it....why has this feature been removed? Surely most browsers have a stop icon? Well, I'm not an expert at all, but the ones I have seen all have one, anyway....
I am not happy about all these changes....it's just made things worse, I am getting more notices of plug ins stopping working than ever before. I always thought up-dates fixed these things & made the product better, not worse....grrrrr
Can anyone tell me why it is gone, and if I can restore it, please?
Thanks
Sylvia

Firefox uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar.
*You get a Stop button during page loading that changes to a Reload button when the page has finished loading
*You get a Go button if you modify the location bar content
*Middle-click the Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab

Mouse cursor problem when external display connected

When my external Apple display is connected to my MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012, 10.10.2) the cursor jumps to a spot on the external display and will not release from it. I move the cursor anywhere and it jumps back to that original spot. Cursor operates normally when the external monitor is not attached. I've used the monitor for a few years with no problem, but this started just recently. I do not use the external monitor daily and I cannot recall doing anything that might have triggered this problem. Any ideas on a fix? Thanks.
Bill

Just an update to close this. Call Apple Support. An advanced support tech walked me through several procedures. Eventually, the problem disappeared after deleting a bunch of plist files and startup items. Which particular file caused the problem we don't know. But problem gone and I will monitor going forward. Hopefully it was a one-time corruption of one of the preference files.

Is there a way to keep animated gifs moving when a page loads? At some point it just stops but the next page is still loading

I am working on creating a website that has this "loading" image gif when I go to another page (php). Yes, ajax is cooler but i'm no expert and seo thing keeps me from using it thus i'd go for something this simple. I already tried and realized it works on chrome but not on firefox, what am I missing? Not even sure if this is the right place to ask
