UPDATE: Clip Moves on Test Movie
My original post is below. Since then, I have discovered that
the issue
only appears when I test the movie. If I open the resulting
.swf file
by clicking, it plays fine. I still think this is pretty darn
odd, but
at least I was able to continue with other parts of the
project.
Original post:
What could cause a clip to be repositioned on test movie? I'm
using
Flash 8 on
a laptop running XP Home. Writing in 2.0 with all my
Actionscript in
external
.as class files. I have a clip that contains an imported gif
file. The
.gif
is positioned with its upper left corner at 0,0. The clip is
positioned
on the
stage at x:50 (which centers it), y:0.
When I test the movie, the clip is repositioned about 70px
in the
negative y
direction (up). I'm only using one frame, any action happens
programatically.
I have no scripting that changes the position of the clip.
Any suggestions?
Can you post your fla?

Hey, wondering if there is a solution to this, or if its just
how it is...
See this pic:
http://www.expansiondesign.com/Picture%203.png
The left half is how the jpeg looks on the stage, the right
is how it looks when I "test movie"
(The "test movie" window is sitting over the top of the stage
- hence the drop shadow)
The image doesn't have smoothing on, is set to jpeg
compression, and uses imported jpeg data.
Cheers

Update the Player Flash CS5 Uses (In Test Movie)
So Flash CS5 came with a beta version of Flash Player 10.1.
Now that the official release of Flash Player 10.1 is released, how do I update what Flash CS5 uses when I Test Movie?
I have so far updated the Flash Player in my browser and my standalone players but I can't seem to figure out how to update the Player that Flash CS5 uses.
This wouldn't be so bad if the beta of 10.1 wasn't breaking my project because of bugs.
Any help appreciated.More bumps, there has to be a way to do this. Adobe wouldn't cement in a beta verison of Flash Player into Flash CS5 would they?

I have a brand new mini mac and a new apple TV. Both have been updated and can see my movies in itunes. I can use Netflix and stream music. I have tried to use my old laptop and it streams video fine. But my new computer only see a spinning circle.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. -
Flash CS4 - Background Colour Change Not Changing in Test Movie
Hello,
Whenever I change the document's background colour in Flash CS4 and then "test movie", the background colour remains white. However if I publish it the colour will be the selected colour.
It's not a huge deal since it publishes right, but I'd really like to be able to test my movie with the correct background colour.
I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8, and I am updated to the latest version of CS4.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
ThanksHey there,
Could you describe the setup or link a file with the problem? I can't reproduce the problem with basic fades (obviously they should continue to work when you switch the player). Is it just in the document you're working on, or all documents you create?
Thanks,
Jen. -
Test movie won't work anymore!!
When I test movie on all my .fla files, the script "seems"
not to work (many things missing, problems with my arrays...) BUT
if I run the SWF produced...it works like a charm??!!
What should it be please?
I've re-install everything on a new system without any
success
If I use the debugger it stalls immediately...
...but remeber the SWF is perfect, it's only while previewing
(testing movie ) inside of flash

The internal player and browser player are two totally
separate applications.
The one in browser get updated frequently while your
authoring player won't.
Often the case when macromedia/adobe left unfixed bugs in the
user IDE
fixing them later with the browser players. This would do the
very thing you
describe. SOme stuff works or won't work while authoring but
will or will not
in browser.
Perhaps that's the case in here.

I am able to Test Movie in Flash, but I am not able to
Preview HTML; i just the background color of the Scene in the
browser. Code is attached.try to open your .SWF with your browser, check if that works.
right click the SWF ---> Open With ---> Browser
your Flash Player might need updating, or has been
uninstalled.
the HTML looks right, and all files are in the same
directory, I cant why else it would not display. -
I seem to have lost the ability to run the Test Movie command from Flash Builder Burrito, it no longer shows up in the Run menu for Flash Professional projects.

Hi,
I'm testing a movie clip in which a 3-D effect (image flip using the 3-D rotation tool) exists. Unfortunately, the movie clip doesn't show up as intended via Test Movie, but works fine when I do a Test Scene. What gives? Is this a bug.
Would upgrading to CS5 help?
Regards,
RonSorry, I'm afraid this forum removed my attached files on purpose. Can I email them to you somehow? Or else, I could try to upload them to a server and I could later email you the link?

Flash CS3 ActionScript and "Test Movie" on Mac
I recently switched over to a PowerMac and Flash CS3 from
Flash 8 on a PC.
I've been on a PC forever but wanted to migrate over to the
Mac as XP and Vista and the headaches we all know about.
So, within Flash you can "Test Movie" and a little test
window pops up displaying your swf.
It has always been the case on the PC, and my friends with
Flash 8 on the Mac tell me it's the same for them, that you can be
writing in the Actions panel and then hit "Control/Apple - Enter"
and the ActionScript actions you just typed will be reflected in
the "Test Movie" pop up. In other words it the "Test Movie" window
acts as a constantly updated reflection of the latest edit to your
Flash piece, regardless of whether you've "Saved" the .fla document
itself.
This is part of the normal work flow to me. Write some
actions, edit them, when they are right, I save. But in the
meantime, as I'm writing I can keep hitting "Control/Apple - Enter"
to watch the changes of my edits and I'll see them.
Well, on my new Mac with Flash CS3, the "Test Movie" window
never updates to the latest edit. Whether with hot-keys or with the
cursor/menu selection, the window will not reflect the latest edit,
UNLESS, I close it first. If I close it, and then hit the
hot-keys/menu for "Test Movie" then it will load my latest edit
(regardless of whether the .fla is saved). So it seems that closing
the pop up "Test Movie" window prior to is the only way to ensure
getting the current edit/actions to preview.
If you write a lot of actions script, then I'm sure you can
agree that adding that "close the window" step into your work flow
is really really a headache. And, if I can't find a way around
that, sadly, I'll have to migrate back to the PC, ugh, and Flash
CS3 on it, which still acts as it always has, with "control-enter"
faithfully launching the current edit.
Any ideas? Have you experienced this.You have to switch the focus back to the application and then
to the test window. Evidently between Flash MX04 (the one I have to
test) and CS3, they made it so that just clicking in the AS editor
window doesn't return the focus to the application. In that case
the Testing Environment intercepts the apple-enter and just
re-tests the already compiled version.
If you click the application window, then click the
actionscript window, it will recompile the swf. However I
personally don't find apple-w to close the window so
onerous. -
How do I combine several clips to make one movie?
The iPhone 6 doesn't have a video pause button (ingenious) so I recorded several clips. I downloaded these clips to iMovie and put them all in one event. When I play the event, the video jumps a little every time it goes from one clip to the next. Is there a way to combine the clips to make one movie that doesn't have those jumps. Thanks!
Thanks for your response. I already figured this out but was unable to post a reply sooner. I just figured out that you can't reply when you are in private browsing. Another Apple glitch. Regarding this issue, in typical Apple fashion, the products can be confusing to use, the user manuals are poorly written, the help menus, many times, aren't very helpful, and the product development decisions can be baffling.
In the case of video-making and editing, Apple has hit the triple-crown: First, the iPhone 6 video recorder doesn't have a pause button; Second, in iMovie, you CAN'T combine separate clips; And third, again in iMovie, you can't download clips directly from iPhoto - you have to move the clips out of iPhoto first. By the way, iPhoto is the default location when clips are uploaded to iCloud. Unbelievable!
For any first-time user reading this, a project is a movie or a trailer. And even when you are in a project, you can't combine separate clips. You can only combine a clip that was separated back to the clip it was separated from. Thanks, Karsten, for taking the time to respond.
