Replace scene

I would appreciate it if someone could help me out with this. I made a flash document but I wanna remove a scene from it and replace it with a scene I have in another flash document. I tried copying and pasting but that seems to create its own problems

You may have done it okay, but here's what I would have offered in any case...
Select all of the used frames/layers in the timeline of the scene, then right click the selection and choose Copy Frames. Create a new scene in the other file, right click the keyframe in its only layer and choose Paste Frames. All of the frames/layers should paste in.
I cannot recall ever copying/pasting a scene (I never use them, and encourage others not to), but that process will work for copying/pasting a timeline.
If that is what you did, then what problems are you having?

Error message: 1021: Duplicate function definition.

Hi All,
First let me start by saying that I know next to nothing about Flash. I have inherited a website maintenance project that has a Flash rotating image banner. I have managed to get the images to fade-in and fade-out correctly, but now I need to make these images clickable - linking images to pages in the website. I have read many posts here and have reviewed the video tutorials. I have been able to get the first image clickable using this AS3 action:
mars_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent) :void {
        navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://somewebsite/mars.php"));
        trace("I'm clicked");
However, when I attempt to make another image clickable by using a different instance of a button I get the error message:
1021: Duplicate function definition.
I have a separate instance of a button with this AS3 action:
jupiter_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent) :void {
        navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://somewebsite/jupiter.php"));
        trace("I'm clicked");
Obviously I'm not understanding how I'm supposed to do this so that I don't create a duplicate function definition. Any help would be most appreciated.

excuse me , I have a question i hope that you help .. ( im new in here )
we were asked to create an interactive application on flash in two languages..
so i created two different fla files same exact codings ... i was wondering how can i combine them so the viewer can be able to choose the language from a button ?
when i try to combine them i get lots of errors of duplications in the actionscript
PS : MY MAIN PAGE INCLUDES A CAROUSEL with images ..
I was thinking of saving one of the fla as a movie and then add it some how to the second fla and combine it with a button but i can't figure it how..
i hope i was clear enough.. but is there any possibility to help me please ?!
when i tend to change names or something it creates error.. ( IM NOT A PRO IN AS3 ) and when i dublicate the scenes it give duplication errors.. WHAT IS THE SOLUTION ??
this is the code of the actionscript in the main page.. ( the carousel's code i took from someone ) and i used it on my project
import com.ccanvas.carousel.*;
var centerX:Number = stage.stageWidth/4;
var centerY:Number = stage.stageHeight/4;
var carc:Carousel = new Carousel(centerX, centerY, 256, 75, "icons.xml");
carc.addTooltip(new tooltip); // use 'tooltip' movieclip for item tooltip
addChild(carc); // add carousel to stage
function down(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace(event.currentTarget.toolText); // simple click interaction
function destroyCarousel(event:MouseEvent):void {
carc.destroy(); // remove all item in carousel as well as tooltip
function removeNextItem(event:MouseEvent):void {
if(carc.numOfItems > 2) {
carc.removeItem(2); // remove the item next to the remove item icon
create.addEventListener("mouseDown", createCarousel);
function createCarousel(event:MouseEvent):void {
if(carc.CREATED == false) {
// recreate the carousel
carc = new Carousel(centerX, centerY, 256, 75, "icons.xml");
carc.addTooltip(new tooltip);
addChild(carc);

Linking a pdf to a button

I'm completely new to flash and have figured out most of the basic features on my own thus far, but I'm completely stumped with this one issue of linking a pdf to a button. I have read and reread all the postings on how to do this, but my button is not working still. I'm using Flash CS5.
I've used the recommended code on code snippet, I've used codes that were recommended and I've tweaked it, but it still not opening my pdf.
here is the current code that I am using. this is from the code snippet. I've used this code to get my different scenes and it works, don't know why I'm having such a hard time with this.

Sprites is not loading in Ad-HOC mode in iOS

Hi Guys,
I am completely stumped here. Created my game, all working in XCode' simulator and also on my device when directly deployed from XCode.
I Submitted my app and they rejected it and asked me to run in Ad-HOC mode in my device to test since the app was not working.
I can replicate the issue in Ad-HOC mode.
Issue:
Once replace scene is invoked, the tile map is not populating the Sprites from the sprite-sheet created using the TexturePacker software. The app does not crash, however the Scene is empty with just the background without any Sprites loaded in it.
Not sure how can this be a code issue since works fine when I install directly from XCode.
Please help, thanks in advance

Not supporting ad-hoc wifi is a bad call and hopefully one that will be remedied soon. That means that users are required to either get the new AT&T 4G model (unlikely for those of us who just bought one) or own a Palm phone in order to use the TouchPad in most places outside of their homes.
There are several threads on this and other forums about this lack of support.
For me personally, it has made my TouchPad (which I love dearly) virtually useless in 90% of the places I go when I leave my house. I did go to a restaurant with free wifi the other day, but so far that's the only place I was able to connect other than my home. And a lot of places charge to connect to their hotspot. I have 2 cell phones with internet and a mobile broadband usb key from Sprint ... none of which can put my TouchPad on the internet. With all that connectivity available to me, why should I have to pay for hotspots all over town?
I do plan to get a Pre3 when it comes out, but since the US release date hasn't even been announced, that could be months. As much as I love my Touchpad, if it can't connect it to the internet outside my front door, it may have to go back.

A colorful starter image from our Challenge host, Grant. Let's see what everyone did with it this week.
Alex: An interesting trio. I like the way you substituted the vase/shade from last week (thanks for the credit) and #3 is the "cat's meow". Isn't that the castle from the Gnome challenge from several weeks ago?
Anne: A nice framing job in #1. How was that done? Love the flying bits and pieces in #2. I think the flying shingle in the middle is a nice detail.
Ben: Great canvas look to your entry. Is that the texturizer filter?
Bill: Is that a storm shelter door? I like the way you have enlarged the area and reshingled the rest of the house.
Bob: By and by, Lord in your #1. I was reminded of crop circles when I first saw it. Is that you in #2-I see a camera in hand. I love the faded image and the golden tint of the shingles.
Cathy: Great effect with the quilt keeping the texture and repeating the patterns in #1. I like the re-arrangement of the elements in your second window in #2.
Celia: Like the stained glass look of #1, but I really like the flowing patterns of #2. How was that done?
Charles:The red really catches the eye; I like the framing of the canyon scene with the window frame.
Jack: A nice three-dimensional house, very well done. Nice way to work the challenge colors into the details of the model.
John: Effective way to replace panes of the original with the pictures in #1. How did you create the circular part of your #2. Very good job on getting the sides square and the "floor" flat. I always have trouble with my perspective drawings.
Malcolm: Nice way to blend the Mondrian style with the challenge elements.
Marilyn: The lamp chimney and flame adds an old-fashioned, country look to your entry. I'm sure the flowers are as fragrant as they are beautiful.
Nancy: I like the frame and the way you've added the texture to the image-how was this done?
Pat: Nice use of the umbrellas to add a different dimension to the challenge entry. Love the floor idea in #2 and the replacement scene of the window.
Red Sky: Great effect in your #1 depot shot-please tell us how this was done. I laughed out loud with your rest stop in #2 and #3.
Rita: Wow, what a burst of color behind your globe-would you mind sharing your technique? Any signifigance to the wrench or is that a spanner outside the US?
Steve: What a creative idea to turn the wood pieces into book titles. Must have taken a lot of time to type and align the various titles. I think "Bermuda Triangle" is my favorite.
Susan: I like the "building block" in your #1, but the topiary couple in #2 "leaves" me speechless. What a great interpretation.
Tab: Your usual great work. I love the framing technique with the shingles.
Tracy: An exhibit worthy of any museum. Is that you behind the camera?
Tricia: What a creative idea to turn the challenge into a flag. Love the wiggly, wavy addition. Likely a voter's favorite if we took a "pole".
Wendy: Like mother, like daughter. A nice family portrait of the Frames' family in #1. Great box in your #2; I remember saying you had a new tutorial on box making. I am guessing this is from that tutorial.

FDM Load Methods - Merge and Replace What is going on behind the scenes?

Hello All
We are using FDM to load Peoplesoft Files into Hyperion planning and ultimately Essbase.
I am wondering what is actually going on within Planning, and ultimately Essbase, when the Replace option is selected when loading, and also the Merge option.
Is it performing different cleardata options, and what criteria is it using to fix on?
Thanks

Hello,
The clear statement that is being executed can be found in two places.
It can be found as a pure statement in the FDM Logs (Analysis -> Log -> Adapter/Master Adapter: Load)
It can be found in the coding form in the Adapter -> Load action (found in the Workbench)
Hopefully this helps...

Replacing online gallery flowers flash with another flash scene?

I'd really like to have a little variety and be able to get rid of the flowers that appear as the online gallery is being loaded/prepared.
Is there any way to do this?

I'll second the recommendation to use JAlbum. If you pick the right skin, it generates completely standard-conforming HTML:
http://jalbum.net/forum/thread.jspa?messageID=110021
Adobe will always push you to use its proprietary technologies. For that reason, even if they were to make non-Flash galleries available, I would much prefer to generate my galleries independently.

Hi it's me rabia and i'm apple user
I want to change my cell phone because it's having scratches on it and i also feel like its home button did't work correctly
So i want to know that can i have a new cell phone on replace of this one at any nearby of my house App store without any cost ?
But i'm not having any line yet on my phone i use it on net mostly so what is the scene can i have or can't ??
please inform me soon !

Is your phone still covered by warranty? If so, go to your nearest Apple store and depending on what happened, this may or may not be covered by warranty. If it is, then you can get a replacement exactly as the phone you already have.
If out of warranty, then there is nothing you can do and you'll have to pay.

Two finger swipe replaces google search string

MBP with Safari 6.0 experiencing this problem. Another user was experiencing the issue here:
http://www.ehmac.ca/mac-iphone-ipad-ipod-help-troubleshooting/99937-safari-two-f inger-swipe-bug-replaces-google-search-string-os-10-7-3-a.html
I don't know where the bug reports are to follow up on it and I haven't seen any patches for it. Any advice? Specifically, I'd like to know how to file the bug (in case I find another) and to follow up on any existing issues.
TIA,

Is there no place to track the status of the report or see any other outstanding issues so I don't bother filing duplicates?
Never heard of such a function here. This method gets feedback to the people who count but it is completely behind the scenes. Part of Apple's "cards close to the chest" method of doing pretty much everything. You should have been looking at the "don't expect a response" screen after you hit the submit button on your bug report.
If there is something that needs clarification, I suspect they will use e-mail to ask for it, but don't stay home waiting!

How can I display a new scene in JavaFX 2.2? For example after button click

how to display new scene after button click in the main window, I want the main window and the new scene are in one stage. thx

You can change the scene by calling stage.setScene(new Scene(newContentParent));
I don't think you are quite asking for a complete scene change though as you "want the main window and the scene in one stage". The main window is a stage (as Stage extends Window). And a given stage can only contain one scene at a time (though you can swap it out by calling setScene as described earlier).
What I think you are really asking for how can you replace some content part of the active Scene on the Stage. To do that you can set a layout manager like a HBox or a BorderPane as the root of your scene, then change out the content of the layout manager. For example:
final BorderPane layout = new BorderPane();
layout.setCenter(new Label("Dogbert");
final Button nav = new Button("Next");
layout.setLeft(nav);
nav.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
@Override public void handle(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
layout.setCenter(new Label("Dilbert"));
});In the above short sample code, if you wanted to change the scene rather than the a pane, then you would call stage.setScene rather than layout.setCenter.
There is a complete executable example with multiple content panes and some styling here:

Repair or replace? If replace, HD now or not yet?

I have been happily doing semi-pro-level video for a variety of applications (nature scenes for a series of commercial "sorta music video" DVDs, documentary-like stuff, weddings, and anything else that comes my way) for seven years with my primary and beloved camera being a Canon XV2 (Japanese model #, but same as GL2 in the U.S.). Since I live in Japan and have no car, that camera is the right compromise between pro features and small size, and I was able to afford it - most stuff I do for free, so my budget is limited. I've had two intermittent problems with it (dirty heads symptoms when heads are not dirty, even just after repair, and an occasional "Eject the tape" demand), and have had a few repairs on it, but was not planning on getting new equipment for another couple years at least. But last week, five minutes before the beginning of a wedding, the zoom on it flaked out - probably an electronic problem. I swapped it with my second camera that was planned as unmanned and survived the wedding, but now I have a dilemma. First of all, I'm asking myself if I should put more money into repair of this camera (especially when I haven't been impressed with Canon's ability to solve my other problems!), or buy a new one. And if I buy a new one, should I just get another GL2/XV2, since it is what I am familiar with? (I was surprised to see that it is not only still being made, but it appears to be the #1 prosumer camera out there, even after over seven years on the market.) Or since I don't replace cameras often, would I be crazy in 2009 to buy a new camera that cannot do HD?
I have not studied the new HD phenomenom in depth, but my impression is that so far the manufacturers have not come up with a way to store HD that works well for prosumer-level editing in Premiere Pro. I assume the real pro cameras do something different, but as far as I can tell, in my price range I have to choose between HDV (compress like I would for a DVD before I even start editing? that doesn't sound right!) or AVCDV (even worse). I see some buzz about HDMI output direct to some external device, but not only are such devices pricey, but I haven't found any explanation of how I'm supposed to do that on a hike, for example (carry the storage device and a car battery in a backpack or something?). Diving with my camera would be even trickier (what all would I have to put in that underwater housing??). Also, it seems that there is not just one HD, but many different resolutions that are all called HD. Finally, when I look for HD cameras in the prosumer range, I just don't see anything - it's either consumer toys or $5000 monsters. So I had decided that HD isn't mature yet, and that DVDs will still be around for awhile before they are consumed by Blu-Ray, so I'll just keep shooting SD with my old cameras until the industry figures out what they're doing. But then my XV2 breaks...
Another issue of purchasing a different camera is the ripple effect. I use my XV2 on a tripod that balances just right (it doesn't have a sliding mount, so it needs to balance) and on a Steadicam JR sometimes. If I get an HD camera that has 3 CCDs of a decent size (I don't want to lose the good low lux ability of the XV2) and a good zoom lens (I use all 20X of the XV2's zoom on a regular basis), I'll probably need to buy a bigger tripod for starters. Then I don't know if the camera will be too heavy for my little Steadicam... or for my arm trying to hold the Steadicam with the camera and counterweight - I'm not a bodybuilder, but a 130 lb., 48-year-old woman. I suspect HD would also demand about 5 times as much computer as I have now... the list of potential dominos goes on.
I've never written to the Lounge before, but this seems like the right place to solicit opinions about the life expectancy of SD and DVD vs. the incoming HD and Blu-Ray generation, the wisdom of repairing vs. replacing (if I give the camera to Canon, they will probably charge me to look at it, even before they know what it would cost to get it fixed, and the other intermittent problems would still exist), and any other topics you feel are relevent. I have "champagne tastes on a beer budget", so I would love to get thoughts both from those of you doing pro work (my champagne tastes) and amateur (beer budget). Let's chat!

Thanks for your thoughts, Curt. By the way, kudos for the tutorial videos you made a few years back - they were a great help to me when I was learning PPro and related stuff (or was that back in the days before they put the word "Pro" on it - I can't remember). Anyway, they were well done.
Yesterday I did more internet research and discovered great news - my camera's failure is quite common (discussion here), and caused by only a failed zoom rocker switch (the rocker overrides the buttons on the handle and the LANC port, so it seems like a more fundamental problem). Someone also posted careful instructions and photos for disassembling the camera and replacing the zoom rocker unit (which is rumored to cost only $13 plus shipping in the U.S.). I don't yet know how I'll get the part here in Japan (where companies seem to try to prevent DIY), but I disconnected my rocker's cable for now, which enables me to use either the buttons or my Varizoom in the LANC port. What a relief! I was worried that the problem was the main circuit board of the camera, which, along with Canon's labor costs, might have been a painful bill for an old camera. But your vote of confidence in a seven-year-old camera's continued usefulness was encouraging enough that even if it hadn't been as simple as it turned out to be, I probably still would have sent it in for repair.
Thanks for your comments on HD as well. Just yesterday I ran across a great review of the XH-A1 and then read the specs - it does seem to be the closest thing to a "HD version of the GL2". But you gave me new information that wasn't obvious: that it can shoot in SD also. When I read the specs, I could see choices of different HD resolutions and frame speeds, but 720x480 29.97fps was not mentioned (I guess it's just not that interesting to people). So I thought I'd have to shoot in HDV and convert the video later to SD, which would surely been messier than native SD. I am currently working on a series of DVD products for which I will continue to shoot SD for a couple more years, so even if I had bought an HD camera, SD capability would be important to me.
So, are you happy with the quality of HDV? After having it pounded into me that it's a no-no to compress (very much, anyway) anything that will get edited later (whether it's photos, audio, or video), I couldn't believe my ears a few months ago when I first heard what HDV is - that the video is getting compressed to the same degree that it would be compressed for putting on a DVD (MPEG-2), before it even gets out of the camera! I ran the other way and decided that the manufacturers were simply desperate to please clueless consumers. But now I am seeing that even pros are using that format (imagine a puzzled look on my face). Do you think HDV is here to stay, or is it an interim measure until higher density tapes are invented or flash memory gets cheap enough to hold uncompressed or only lightly compressed (like DV-AVI level) video in the camera?

Where is the import option for "Start a new clip at each scene break" in iMovie 2013?

I am currently in the process of importing several mini-DV tapes via firewire into iMovie 2013. I have the most recent version of iMovie and am using a Sony Handycam to facilitate the transfer. The problem I am having is that when I hit import, iMovie splits what is supposed to be a single scene into multiple scenes ranging anywhere from a second to 5 minutes. I am left with several scene chunks that I cannot combine into one. I did a little research and found that iMovie is probably deinterlacing my scenes as it mistakes them for multiple scene breaks. In the older iMovie options, all I had to do was to go to "Preferences" -> "Import" -> then deselect "Start a new clip at each scene break". However, this option doesn't appear to be available in iMovie 2013. Is there a way I can force iMovie 2013 to import a single scene from my mini-DV camcorder without breaking it into multiple clips? Thanks!

1st : this is the wrong forum, this is iMovie for ipod/iphone and ipad ( iOS is the OSX mobile Operating System )
2nd : iMovie 11 is the current OSX version. iMovie 06 was the last of its kind, all newer, including iMovie 09 have complete new workflow, so functions of 06 are gone and have replaced with others.
Please go to the correct forum to find specific answers.

Playback speeds up intermittently on first scene when played after build

Hi
I have a problem with playback on apple dvd player after completing the build? When I play the authored project on apple dvd player after the build, after clicking on the play button in the main menu, the first scene (about 1 min. long) playback speeds up intermittently-normal speed then fast for a second then normal then fast-jumpy I guess might describe it. This only happens on the first scene with all the other scenes after this point in the timeline playing fine. I placed 2 new clips (different assets-scenes) to replace the first scene & the same issue happens with different asset clips being used in the same position (first) in the track timeline.
The scenes I used are pans of a running deer, which play fine anywhere else in the track timeline except the first position. When I play the project it's fine in simulator mode & in the project itself...this only happens after the build when playing on apple dvd player from VIDEO_TS folder. This is a test project for some footage so it's only 10 minutes long with bit rates at 5-6 ave. & 6-7.4 max.
-2 pass VBR-best motion.
Any ideas on what is going on?
I'm using DVDSP 2 with Jaguar 10.2.8.
Thanks for any help.

Not a clue about the problem, sorry, but can "imagine" a workaround just to fool the problem.
You must have a PLAY button that connect to that first scene (first chapter in the track, I guess). If you connect that button to the second chapter (just to try) that plays fine or again behaves as it was first?
If that way plays fine, you can add a "false" first scene (i.e. one second of black exported from FCP) and connect the PLAY button to the real first (now second in the track) chapter.
I told you, it's just a workaround to have in hand in case your dead line gets close!!

Can I replace an ATI RADEON 9800 PRO-(256MB)-MAC EDITION with Mac ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb Video Card For G4/G5

Hi,
I am trying to help a friend whose graphics card has bust.
The old one was an ATI RADEON 9800 PRO-(256MB)-MAC EDITION.
I've been looking on ebay and it seems a lot cheaper to get a Mac ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb Video Card For G4/G5.
Can I just swap them over? The connectors are not identical according to the photographs.
Thanks.

I'd like to thank everyone for all the really useful information in this thread. It helped me solve a similar problem, which I'll describe here briefly in case it helps someone else.
I have a 2004/5 dual 2 Ghz PowerPC G5 and an Apple Cinema HD display linked, as I later found out, with the now defunct ADC connector. The display suddenly started to look like that scene in The Matrix, when code falls like rain down the screen, and I worked out I needed to replace my Radeon 9800 pro video card (I discovered the board was blue when I removed a thick layer of dust).
I took japamac's excellent advice and bought a Geforce 6800 Ultra from the linked eBay seller in Hong Kong, who delivered it extremely quickly, along with the cables to plug it into the DVD drive power source and a CD with installation instructions. It was only then that I realised the card had two DVI connectors and my display needed ADC (I hadn't understood the difference).
eBay came to the rescue again with a seller who had a secondhand DVI to ADC adapter, which Apple produced when it phased out ADC about six years ago but no longer sells. It has its own power supply and looks like a large version of the Mac laptop power cables - and has added signifcantly to the pile of spaghetti under my desk.
Installing the Geforce 6800 Ultra is fiddly, and a bit scary if you're not used to delving into the insides of a Mac, but the instructions were clear and illustrated with useful photos. The video cable has four connectors. Two fit into the end of the card, the other two (linked in a Y shape) form a bridge between the DVD/superdrive and its power cable. You have to remove the DVD drive, unplug it, and then plug one of the two Y video card connectors into the DVD power cable and the other into the DVD drive itself. Then you replace the DVD drive, plug the two remaining cable connectors to the video card and ease it into the old card's AGP slot.
Finally, with the G5 reassembled, plug the adapter's DVI connection into the back of the card, plug the Cinema Display ADC cable into the adapter block, plug the adapter's USB cable into the G5 (this enables the the USB ports on the back of the display to work), and power up.
At the time of writing, the display has been up and running for a couple of hours and all seems fine.
Thanks again everyone for all your help and advice. If it wasn't for communities like this, it would be virtually impossible to solve problems with old but still serviceable Macs.

Is it possible to find and Replace a string inside a textfile using JSP?

FileInputStream fs = new FileInputStream("/opt/Abhishek/software/tomcat/webapps/AMS/listpass");
DataInputStream in1 = new DataInputStream(fs);
while (in1.available() !=0)
String str1=in1.readLine();
StringTokenizer st1 = new StringTokenizer(str1);
String node=st1.nextToken();
if (node.equals(sports))
String pass=st1.nextToken();
out.println ("<b>"+sports[i]+" <b>");
out.println("**Your Required Password**");
out.println(pass);
out.println("<br></br>");

Hi ,
I have a text file (named listpass in the above code) inside tomcat-webapps folder containing a node name and its password.You could see the path of the text file at the starting line of the code.The Scene behind the program is once the particular node is clicked the password is retreived for the user against the particular node.What i would need is to change the password in the text file once it is retreived. So i would need to find the password that is retreived recently and change that one with a randomnly generated new password in the text file.
So can i do this?Is it possible to search for the string in the text file and replace that with a new one using JSP.For your note i am running all my HTML amd JSP inside the same folder where i have the text file in which the string has to be replaced .
Could anyone give your comments on this please?

Nasty in so many ways.
First off you shouldn't be doing stuff like this in a JSP. JSPs should just build HTML, use a Servlet and then pass data to a JSP for formatting.
Web applications are multi-threaded, so you have to consider what happens if several of these transactions come in at the same time, each trying to change the same data file.
It's not practical to amend text files in place, generally you have to create a new version of the file for each change because if the size of a password changes the subsequent bytes of the file would all need moving.
Use a database. Databases are designed to deal with these issues and there are perfectly good free ones around like Derby, MySQL and H2.
