Student flash interior movie help!!

In older versions of Flash, shapes were very volatile. If two
shapes on the same layer overlapped each other, they would actually
cut chunks out of each other. Flash 8, on the other hand, now has
object drawing mode, which allows you to create a shape as a
self-contained object that won't interfere with other objects.

mitchFlash;
Not sure what the question is, but fwiw you can turn off
object drawing
mode via the tools panel. The feature "auto-groups" graphics,
but much of
the time I prefer flash's efficient "auto-join/punch" and
work with it
turned off...

  • Help!--export error Flash MX mov's to Quicktime mov's

    Hey there,
    I normally convert Flash Mx 2004 mov's to normal mov's using Quicktime Pro.
    Now, I get an error with the "Export Controller". It usually stops at about %20 through.
    The Flash mov's play fine, but won't export.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    -Matt

    Yeah, I did export a SWF
    version 5
    enabled flash in Quicktime
    and it (the SWF) opens in Quicktime Pro, plays just fine, but then when I try to convert it to a MOV., the exporter crashes.
    I can make a SWF movie into a MOV, right?
    I'm trying to make a cartoon I made in Flash a MOV file I can upload to Youtube and other video sites.
    Am I missing something?
    Thanks for your continuing help, sir!

  • Flash CS5 Button Help

    To start, I'm a total newbie in Flash, so I'm sorry if what I'm asking is ridiculously primitive, but I was literally thrown into this blindfolded and I'm using google and several forums to help me out.
    What I'm doing:  redesigning a website.  At the moment, the website has a flash file that introduces it's logo and subcategories of its' website on the top of the page.  What I wanted to do was make sure there was a hyperlink on the logo that would bring anyone back to the homepage, very basic stuff.  The issue I have run into is that the logo is actually a flash movie.  Different parts of the logo appear at different times, and I think this is what is specifically causing me issues.
    The logo that I want to hyperlink has several layers, and what I've done so far is select them all and create a button (F8, select 'Button' and rename it).  When I did that, I noticed the layers significantly changed and when I tested the movie, it looks terrible, choppy and not how it originally looked.
    I know the step after that is to go into behaviors and insert the url to which I want it to be hyperlinked.  The only thing is that I don't want to show a terrible flash movie to my boss even if it's hyperlinked to the homepage. 
    Anyone understand all that gibberish I wrote down?  Or does anyone see a flaw in what I'm doing?  I'm not 100% positive if the steps I'm taking are correct, I've been to several different sites, all of which tell me to do different things. 
    Initially I tried coding it with ActionScript, but I was having terrible issues with that as well. 
    If it helps, the file I'm working on was altered a while back.  Could it be that the file is not compatible or proper for Flash CS5? 
    Help!!!

    ... how do I give that shape/button a url?
    Since it is a button, it is already a self animating object that will react to mouse interactions, but only visually at this stage.  The first thing you need to do to make it useful code-wise is to assign it a unique instance name.  So you drag a copy of it out to the stage from the library, and while it's still selected, you enter that unique instance name for it in the Properties panel... let's say you name it "btn1"
    In AS3, to make a button work with code, you need to add an event listener and event handler function for it.  You might need to add a few (for different events, like rollover, rollout, clicking it, but for now we'll just say you want to be able to click it to get a web page to open.  In the timeline that holds that button, in a separate actions layer that you create, in a frame numbered the same as where that button exists, you would add the event listener:
    btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1Click);
    The name of the unique function for processing the clicking of that button is specified at the end of the event listener assignment, so now you just have to write that function out:
    function btn1Click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
       var url:String = "http://www.awebsite.com/awebpage.html";
       var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
       navigateToURL(req);
    ... how do I know it's properly placed on the correct area?
    What area?  If you place it where you want it, that should be correct. (?)
    ... how do I make sure it's invisible...?
    If you can't see it when you test the file and you know it's there and your cursor turns into  a hand when you are over where it should be, it's invisible.
    ...how do I see the other objects in the flash file I'm working on?
    Select Edit -> Edit Document to get out of the symbol editing mode and back to the file editing mode.  If you doubleclick an object on the stage, rather than clickingit in the library, you open it up in editing mode on the stage, but the stage and everything else will still be visible behind it in a faded tone.

  • Flash Completion Movie Not Even Loading!

    I, have recently not been able to access videos which,
    require a movie player. I suppose it is out of date so I have been
    trying to install the newest Flash Player and it doesn't even show
    a flash completion Movie, and I have set there for over 10 minutes
    waiting for the movie too come up..... I do not know if it is
    finished or what, the loading bar movie thing dissapeared then the
    whole movie window on the browser shrinks to really nothing, and no
    movie is playing at all.... so what am I doing wrong? Please
    help.

    Actually, I just visited the web page you identified in the initial posting and while my initial view of it did not show a Flash file, including right clicking the area, after distracting myself by looking at the page's source code, I went back to the browser window and I am now seeing a preloader screen that appears to be stuck on "Loading 0% of 0" and if I right click it now I get the expected Flash file menu.  So I'd say your Flash file has some issues.

    Hi. Please can anyone show me how to install a flash document / movie into a powerpoint presentation so that the animation plays within the powerpoint? Thanks

    wouldn't it make more sense that a flashtard is someone who
    just generally sucks at flash and asks idiotic questions?
    anyway, so i pretty much got the banner done - but i'm stuck
    on one problem. I made a motion clip of a heart, and i want the
    heart to fall from top to bottom, following a squiggly motion
    guide, and to rotate 1/4 turn on the way. I got it as far as
    following the motion guide, but when i try to select the instance
    in the first frame and rotate it, shouldn't the motion tween make
    it appear to slowly rotate, rather than stay put then rotate 1/4
    turn at the last frame? When I select the clip and play around with
    alpha and stuff, that works fine. What the heck?

    I'm soprry, I should have been more explicit. I am importing
    to Flash 8, but
    I have to publish as Flash 6 so it's not flv files I am
    creating, so thus
    not dynamically loaded flv. These files are being presented
    inside an
    Authorware file so Flash 6 is a must ... I cannot use the
    Flash AX control,
    I have to use the internal Flash suppor provided by
    Authorware.

    No, compression is less of an issue for me ... I have a

    No such thing is sold from any authorized source in the US. The Sprint phone is not unlocked. It can be unlocked by Sprint for use on international (non US) carriers for current Sprint customers in good standing after completing (I believe) 60 days of service.
    If you are having problems using certain features on an unsupported carrier, you'll have to work it out with your carrier.

  • Flash Newbie needs help with Movie Clips/Action Scripting

    Hi -
    I'm having a problem with my movie clips playing
    simultaneously and cannot, for the life of me, figure out what I
    have done wrong. I'm new to flash, so I may have set something up
    incorrectly, but here's what I have so far:
    11 layers, total: 1 layer with 10 control buttons, each
    button with the following actionscript:
    on (release) {
    gotoAndPlay(85);
    Where the number changes in relation to which keyframe the
    next movie is on.
    I have 10 movies, total, but they are only movie clips,
    essentially photo slide shows with audio, made all in the library.
    The problem happens when I click on the second or third
    button. Not only does the movie that I have selected begin to play,
    but all of the previous clips do as well, so it all sounds quite
    garbled. I don't know what I am missing in the action script, as my
    Action Layer has a stop command on it at each keyframe where there
    is a new clip to play.
    I have tried to add a stopAllSounds command, but I'm afraid
    that doesn't do anything because it is not a "sound file" per se,
    playing in the timeline.
    I'm at the end of my rope and really need some help in
    figuring this one out. My project is hanging in the balance on
    this, as I have scripted everything else correctly and it runs
    beautifully.
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Caroline

    Each layer has a blank keyframe before and after each
    movieclip. Each movie clip is at a different frame. Even with the
    blank keyframes added, the second video starts to play and then the
    first video begins to play. Same happens if I click on the third
    button. Third plays, and starts 1st and 2nd shortly thereafter. Is
    there an action script I can put in that will tell the timeline
    that, when a button is clicked, no matter where the movieclip is,
    it will stop and start the newly selected movieclip?
