Needs help adding images to movie clips and referencing the frames

i havent started with a blank, script made movie clip.
I want to add frames from action script 2, and be able to
reference/show the induividual frames for a video game and not a
movie. I dont realy need animation, i just need certain frames to
show, that i want to load load(from a non script made movie clip
with one loaded frame(bitmap data).

you can't add frames to a movieclip using actionscript. so,
if that's what you're trying to do you'll need to find some other
way to accomplish your goal.

  • Need help adding image to datagrid column

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me how to add an image to a datagrid column?
    I have created a flex library project which contains a mxml component with a datagrid, an item renderer mxml component which rendered the image within the datagrid column depending on the value coming back from the database for that column and a folder 'assets' which hold all the images. When I add the library to my main project and call the mxml component with the datagrid an image place holder is visible in the datagrid column but not the image. However, if I take the image out of the library project and added to an 'assets' folder in the main project the image is displayed in the datagrid column.
    It looks like, even though the images are in the flex library project and only the flex library project is trying to display the images in the datagrid, the library project is looking in the main application project folder for the image.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?
    Thanks in advance for an help,
    Xander.

    I have tried embedding the images in my library but it still didn't work. Also I can't embed the image as I'm using the value of the column to complete the image name, for example in my mxml item renderer component I have the added the following code
    <mx:Image source="@Embed(source='assets/' + data.mycolumnvalue + '.png')" tooltip="{data.mycolumnvalue}"/>
    but nothing is displayed.

Is this the senario that you are talking about?

  • Need help adding numbers to PDF drawing and more

    I'm not an Adobe superuser so hopefully this isn't a stupid question. I receive drawings in PDF from my clients. The drawings look like Autocad and are pictures of parts with dimensions that I build for them. I number all the dimensions on the PDF drawing from 1 to whatever. I then create a spreadsheet with the numbers and the corresponding dimension plus other info. Currently I print the PDF then with a pen I manually number each dimension. Then I manually enter the dimension and special symbols in my spreadsheet. Ideally I'm trying to find a way to just click and have it enter a 1 then click and have it enter a 2 etc. If that's not possible then what's the easiest way to just click and allow me to type 1 then click and I type 2 etc.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    I think what you actually need is a dynamic stamp. Try searching these forums and also acrobatusers.com . There's a lot of information about it.

The text part of the responses differ (these are not RFC'ed) and makes parsing more complex than what it could have been.Yeah, the differing responses can be a pain, though fortunately they are far and few between. There was a bug in Chris' package in that it wasn't handling a two code response from a windows FTP server for one of the commands, but I emailed him and he fixed that. Not his fault, he didn't have a windows FTP server to test on at the time.
    FTP is a pretty straight forward protocol and easy to wrap a PL/SQL package around (using <i>UTL_TCP</i>).Absolutely. and the RFC details almost everthing you need to handle. It was quite quick to knock up a package, similar to the code hoek has linked to.
    I think there is a lot of common stuff that many of us do in this regard. Always wondered how well a proper GPL'ed open source project providing a PL/SQL development framework and libraries would do...I think there'd be a lot of arguments about what is the best way of doing things. :D

    If you retained the homerreg movieclip as the main one, having regular homer on frame 1 and zombie homer on frame 2, then the following code should work in place of what you had before...

    YOu need to learn how to use FCP.  Sorry, no offense needed, and I know it sounds harsh. But from reading that I can tell you have no idea about how to properly import tapeless media into FCP...and don't know what formats FCP works with...nor know what formats the cameras record.  This is all basic stuff you need to know before you edit.  Editing isn't only creative, but lately highly technical as well...you need to know what your software is capable of doing, and how to get the footage into it properly. 
    You cannot do what you did...directly drag from the cameras into FCP.  No...it needs to be imported, typically with LOG AND TRANSFER...and converted from the shooting format, which typically isn't natively editable in FCP (want native, use Adobe Premiere...).  It needs to be converted to ProRes.  And yes, the file sizes of ProRes are a LOT bigger than the camera originals.  4-5 times larger.  That's how FCP works.
    Here's a quick tutorial to get you started.  But then I suggest getting to know the editing system better.

  • *Class Project - Please help:  Why does my movie clip keep playing over and over?

    I am desperate for help on this one as its my Final Flash
    class project and I just can't get my scenes/movie clips to play in
    the order I want them to.
    I have Scene 1 (movie clip 1) that plays and then Scene 2
    (movie clip 2) plays. The problem is that Scene 2 (or movie clip 2)
    repeats itself over and over again. I can't get it to go back to
    Scene 1 (movie clip 1) to play that again.
    I want it go to to this Scene 1 and actually start at a
    certain frame to continue on with the story.
    I have named my movie clip instances.
    What am I doing wrong? I went into movie clip 2, into
    actions, and movie clip control, and I don't really see a way to
    tell it to go back and play movie clip 1. Trying to see how to
    refer back to the instance name of the movie clip and get it to
    play.
    Ideas? Please please? I would be forever greatful.

    As Nickels55 said, above, scenes add unnecessary complexity.
    So the answer to this is: YES. Scenes are awkward in Flash. Never
    use them in any final project. Put everything on a single timeline
    in a single scene, and you will have much better control of the
    project.

  • Difficulties with movie clips and frames

    This is really irking me.
    I am extremely new to Flash so please bear with me. I am assuming that this is a simple, easy to fix problem that I am having. I have Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5.
    What I am trying to do is display a sequence of images after other movie clips stop playing.
    The image sequence itself does what it is supposed to and works properly, and the other movie clips also are successful. However, whenever I try to put the movie clips for the images in frames or keyframes, the beginning movie clips only play part of the way before the images show up. This happens even though the images' movie clips are on frames/keyframes (I've tried both) after the other movie clips.
    The movie clips that are supposed to play first are each on a separate layer and there are two of them.
    The first layer is called "tree" and the second is called "text"
    The tree layer has a 45-frame gif animation that I have turned into a movie clip. I have created a motion tween and changed its alpha so that the gif has a fading in and out effect. I also have it so that it stops replaying once it reaches the last frame. I am using stop(); for this.
    The text layer has a 40-frame gif animation that I have also turned into a gif. This gif is also a movie clip and also has motion tween. Its alpha has also been changed.
    Both tree and text play together successfully and how I want them to.
    The sequence of images is three separate images, each a different layer, that fade into eachother. These images are pngs, therefore they aren't gifs nor do they have their own frames.
    The bottom layer is called floor1 and has frames 1 through 50 of motion tween and alpha adjustments fading the png image. The image is a movie clip.
    The layer on top is called floor2 and has frames 51-100 of a different png image fading.
    The very top layer is called floor3 and has frames 101-150 of yet another png fading.
    The images are successful in doing what they are supposed to.
    Layers tree and text are one fla file, and layers floor1, floor2, and floor3 are a separate fla file.
    When I copy the frames from layers floor1, floor2, and floor3 into a keyframe after layers text and tree, they transfer properly, but when I test the animation, the image sequence shows up a lot sooner than it is supposed to, interrupting the movie clips on the layers text and tree. I have tried moving the floor# layers' keyframes farther down the timeline, but then the other movie clips just stop.
    In the fla file with layers text and tree, I've imported the gifs into the library and then put them onto the stage.
    In the fla file with the floor# layers, I've imported the pngs into the stage.
    Here's what the text and tree layers look like:
    Here's what the floor# layers look like:
    The rest of the frames for the floor#s...
    So, I thought that the problem was that I needed to delay the image squence. I looked around and found no code or anything for that..
    Afterwards, I thought that it was because I had imported the tree and text gifs to the library before putting them on the stage.
    I opened a new fla and imported the "tree" gif straight to the stage.
    I figured that this should work because then it would show each of the individual frames in the movie clips, which it doesn't do in the above pictures. By importing the gif like this, it does show the individual frames. I've tested this with the image sequence and it works fine. But I have a problem with this method too..
    I select all of the frames for the gif to convert into a symbol, so I can add a motion tween and mess with the alpha. However, only the last frame is converted into a movie clip. Well actually no... Only the circled frames below are turned into the movie clip. Even when all of the frames are selected.  This isn't very helpful because then I can't change the alpha for the entire gif nor can I create a motion tween without getting a message saying that the motion tween could not be applied to all of the frames.
    Here's what this version of "tree" looks like.
    And the frames continue like so until 135.
    The frames that are turned into the movie clip are circled below.
    If I can solve the issue that I'm having with the tree shown in the two pictures above this sentence, then I can display the movie clips and image sequence without a problem. It wouldn't be quite how I had intended it to be, but it would be successful and would still work.
    If I can fix the problem with the image sequence showing up to early, and of the tree and text movie clips being cut off, then this project would also be successful and it would be how I had wanted it to be.
    If you need clarification, let me know and I'll explain something better.
    I am not willing to provide a download link in this forum for my fla files, but I can email them to you if you would like a look. I just don't want someone to be able to find them and take them by doing a google search.
    I have uploaded two swfs though.
    The first is of the tree and text layers/movie clips working as they are supposed to. The second is of the image sequence (floor1, floor2, floor3) doing what it is supposed to.
    Text and tree: http://glassoliverdesigns.weebly.com/uploads/1/0/6/5/10653451/tfg1.swf
    Floor1, floor2, floor3: http://glassoliverdesigns.weebly.com/uploads/1/0/6/5/10653451/tfg2.swf
    Notice how at the end of the text and tree swf, when the text stops the thing in the background keeps flashing. If that can keep flashing WHILE the images appear, then that would be great.
    TL;DR: I want the floor# flash to show up after the text and tree flash but I keep having problems and nothing I try is working properly.

    Very concise question, appreciate the screenshots. One thing that motion tweens don't always show very well is keyframes. Let me clear a few things up and see if it helps.
    Go back to what you wanted to do originally, which is copying the frames from one document to another. This is perfectly fine and to clear it up, it will also copy any library elements (images, clips, etc) that are required to copy those frames for you, so you do not need to import them yourself.
    To successfully copy frames (not symbols), select the first frame of the frames you want to copy, hold shift and select the last frame (alternatively double clicking anywhere in the blue motion tween should select it all as well). Now right-click and "Copy Frames". Now go into your new document, select a frame, right-click and select Paste Frames. You will see the same frames copied over, the blue representing the tween and keyframes came with it and you finally will notice all your images/etc were copied into your library.
    Now is a good time to manage the library clutter that was just copied in, if you're a clean freak like me.
    This process is the same, as you tried, for the other documents you want to copy in. If any resources match in name then Flash will ask you if you want to "overwrite" that library item. If you do that,  you will break one of your previous animations. Make sure that's not the case.
    The common gotcha here is not knowing how to slide frames over properly. If overwriting isn't the issue, this is what I suspect your problem is and as you expand/contract the timeline the keyframes aren't going with you.
    For example if I import 2 clips with fade in/out and move keyframes as you did I'll get something like this:
    Now moving them over I would be very careful to select all of the frames I want to move via the methods above. Click the first frame, hold shift and select the last frame, or double-click anywhere in the middle of the blue. The selection of frames:
    Now I simply drag my selected frames to the right, notice the keyframes stay as they should (the black dots):
    The animation plays as expected.
    Lastly I'm not sure if you've ever used the panel but you should really get used to the Motion Editor. This gives you control over easing as well as shows you an in-depth view of the keyframes that exist in a selected motion tween.
    At first this panel may look complex but it simply represents the basic properties you can animate. Any more properties you animate can be added in here. I moved the X, Y and Alpha properties of my object. So you can see over the frames 30-60 what I did. You can also adjust basic easing here.
    If your animations don't look correct you can select a motion tween, open the motion editor and verify the keyframes look correct. Scrub the timeline and look at the values you're interested in. Alpha for example, for you.
    If you don't see any keyframes when you scrub the timeline, you moved your frames over incorrectly and the keyframes probably exist in a different place and therefore it appears incorrect.

  • Multiple Movie clips and rollovers

    to disappear under the circle that they have their mouse on. I

  • Need help adding schedule to xcode 4

    I need help adding a tour schedule for an iphone app building an app for 13 djs and they want thier tour schedules added these need to be updated monthly is there a way to add this????

    I don't know if this is the easiest way but it works for me. I connect the DVD player to my camcorder (so it's the 3 plugs yellow/red/white on one end and a single jack into the camera). Then I connect my camcorder to the computer (I think it's through a firewire port). Then I just play the DVD and the footage is digitized via the camcorder and I import it into iMovie 4 as it's playing. I believe the camcorder is just in VCR mode.
    I have also used this method to transfer VHS tapes onto DVDs via the camera by connecting the VCR to the camera.
    I haven't had much luck with movies over about 40 minutes on iMovie. But if it's home movies, there may be a logical break. Do maybe 20 minute segments (it's also really easy on iMovie to add a soundtrack if these are OLD films with no sound.
    As you can see, I'm low tech!
    Good luck!
