Using Artworks of Photoshop & Illustrator with Flash Catalyst

I am not sure if I am posting this in the proper area yet I need to know if the Flash Catalyst works with only Artworks of PS CS4? Or will it work with any older versions such as PS CS2 or PS CS3?  Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.  I want to try the Catalyst and maybe even purchse it yet it needs to be compatiable with my programs in order for myself be able to use it, the demo only mentions PS CS4.  If anyone could let me know, please email me at [email protected]

  • Can I use Flash with Flash catalyst?

    I was wondering, since Flash Catalyst apparently only uses
    "rudimentary animation", can I use Flash Professional with Flash
    catalyst? I would like to do more complex animations, and I was
    wondering if there was a way to import those animations into Flash
    Catalyst,

    Flash Professional will definitely be the tool for creating
    complex animation. The tweaks they have done to the animation
    engine will blow away designers giving them intuitive tools to use
    for creating animation. Designers will absolutely love how easy it
    is to animate now.
    As for whether or not Flash Catalyst can handle that... From
    the trial software I received at Adobe MAX... it appears you can
    import SWFs. In fact, as soon as you import them, they start
    playing right there in the IDE. But I am not sure how much control
    you have over the SWF once you import it. No SWC import though.
    I was curious if there are any round tripping features
    between Flash Professional and Flash Catalyst. Because the way I
    understand it, Flash Catalyst is a way for traditional designers to
    use Fireworks, Illustrator and Photoshop to build RIAs... they said
    nothing of using Flash Professional.

  • How about this idea with flash catalyst? Can it happen in next version or before the release?

    Hi friends,
    Let me come straight to my interest!
    I create a datalist control asset using photoshop. Bring this into Flash catalyst by importing the artworks. Then selecting respesctive artwork and making it as an horizontal list control with custom way for sliding between thumbnails with some description text.
    Till now it is 100% possible with flash catalyst beta 1.
    Can flash catalyst team further tweak this ui design tool to go ahead and select the data template and add custom interaction where, we can go ahead and give the path in such a way it makes a 180 degree carousel in seconds without any coding. I just need to go into the template and draw/move the positions for 5 thumbnails which sits within the width area of the datatemplate, then all the thumbnails follow the path.
    This might be two much, but next wish is to, create states within the data template for loading the thumbnails into list control with custom animations, loading the thumbnail when some search is changed , i mean on layout updated on the datalist. 
    So in short , my wish is second level tweaking of layout needs to be done within data driven controls.
    Please come with comments!

    Hi Adam,
    You are almost right !
    I am just rephrasing my question for you to understand!
    But I don't mean only carousel, I love to see the list control comes in some innovative paths. As you know in flash CS4 adobe has come with motion editor concept for tweening, where you can go ahead and fix some path for the motion of any object on the stage like in aftereffects.
    Now how about i take a template from illustrator where i define the data template of a data list control and scroll bar as vector assets. Now in flash catalyst, i come and fix them as data template and scroll bar. Now i double click and go into the datatemplate and then have a editor like in flash, where i can set a path for the motion of the repeated items, then in runtime it follows that path. This is my first idea.
    Second one was i have a search box on top of it , then i type some name to search from the above mentioned datalist control, now it refines and updates the exisiting list with relavant repeated items. When this layout updates , each item should animate and sit back on the data list.
    It's a small example for my idea! Hope you got my point!
    As you said , I am also mentioning the same repeated items(a.k.a. Data Template, a.k.a. Item Renderer)! One more level of animation to avoid coding and easy to create stunning path following list controls. Even it can be used to define other controls too ! I don't mean images, it can be anything!
    Can it be possible ?
    Thanks!

  • Checkout with Flash Catalyst

    Does anyone know if a Checkout, whether it be Google, Paypal or any other one,
    can be incorporated in a Flash Catalyst site?
    Mike

    For functionality like that you will need to add that using Flash Builder. You can place a UI elements that you will need with Flash Catalyst, but all the required Actionscript will need to added via Flash Builder.
    Hope this helps,

  • No UI redraw while Mousedown in Illustrator with flash panel (MAC only)

    Hello all,
    I've noticed in Illustrator whenever the mouse is held down over a FLASH UI object on a mac no updates are drawn to the UI until the mouse button is released. This makes things like highlighting text , using scrollbars etc very awkward.
    Has anyone else come across this?
    I have slightly altered the sample "Freegrid" & "FreegridUI" found in the illustrator CS5 SDK. I'm running in debug mode & the events are working perfectly (as far as I know)
    Interestingly enough the same code works in windows perfectly.
    I also experienced the exact same problem back in CS4 when i was using the ADM flash player UI to play my flash animation. My previous CS4 post is
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/533171  (7 months ago, boy how time flies)
    I have tried on two macs. One PPC the other Intel, 1.5.8 OS
    Thanks.

    I have retested and confirmed; The bundled FreegridUI ZXP appears to have the same draw problem I have described.
    The answer to your question is, from my perspective: The supplied Freegrid works well on both Win & Mac; FreegridUI works well only on windows. My code does not seem to be a factor here at all.
    Due to the nature of the samples given in the SDK it is not something that would appear to be obvious, but it fortunately is very easy to reproduce.
    (the problem is extremely noticable with a scrollbar, the scrollbar graphic does not update until the mouse is released!)
    Slowly highlight any text you have entered and you will notice the lack of UI feedback until the mouse is released.
    Running the FreegridUI.swf file directly does not have this problem. AFAIK that means this problem is either related to me compiling "Freegrid" or the way the flash panel is being handled on a mac.
    This problem has occured on 10.5 Mac OS PPC and Intel. I will be testing it on 10.6 shortly!
    If i had any choice I would stick to windows programming, I'm not a big fan of Xcode!
    Please tell me i'm not crazy, or it's some crazy compiler flag that I have missed.
    Thanks!

  • Library issue with flash catalyst

    I've taken the suggestion of of a work around the fact that in Flash Catlyst you can't export libraries by making root files read and write with this terminal command:
    So this is todo with it wanting to write a file in / ( or c:\ ) for some reason. Probably should be using $TEMP (%TEMP)
    anyway to fix on a mac OSX and decrease your security from any virus / stupid typo on a command line..
    sudo chmod a+rwx /
    or for those octal fan
    sudo chmod 0777 /
    How can I get back to the default state? I'm running Lion.

    Hi Bear,
    Thanks for the email i have tried to do the whole clipping thing i can see how it would work in certain scenarios but when i did it, it took away all my interactions etc.
    I did the toggle thing which did work for the images but not the writing. 
    My artboard is 900 wide so i moved my wrting all the way over to 1200 on the right to get it off the screen.  my main problem is now when i put into dreamweaver html and play looks fine, but when i upload to internet i have all that extra room on the right and a little on the bottom.
    One thing that confuses me is that i have images on the left and they dont show up at all the artboard only extends to the right and a little on the bottom out of the artboard specified size.

  • Using 'Function Returning SQL Query' with Flash charts

    I have created a pl/sql function that returns a SQL query as a varchar2 of this form:
    select null link
    <x value> value
    <Series1 y value> Series 1 Label
    <Series2 y value> Series 2 Label
    <Series3 y value> Series 3 Label
    from tablea a
    join tableb b
    on a.col = b.col
    order by <x value>
    If I now call the function from a Flash Chart Series SQL box with the Query Source Type set to 'Function Returning SQL Query' like this:
    return functionname(to_date('30-sep-2010', 'dd-mon-yyyy'))
    it parses correctly and the page is saved; however, when I run the page I don't get any output - nor any error messages or other indication of a problem.
    Now, if I call the function in a SQL client, capture the SQL query output using dbms_output and paste that into the Flash Chart Series SQL box - changing the Query Source Type to SQL Query - and save the page it works fine when I run it and returns a multi-series flash chart.
    Can anyone suggest either;
    1. What have I might have missed or done wrong?
    2. Any way to usefully diagnose the problem...
    I have tried using the Apex debugger - which is very nice, by the way - but it doesn't provide any info on what my problem might be. I even tried writing my own debug messages from my function using the apex_debug_message package - got nothing...
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Hi Eric,
    Try expressing the source as this:
    begin
       return functionname(to_date('30-sep-2010', 'dd-mon-yyyy'));
    end;That works fine for me, and if I take out the begin-end and the trailing semicolon from the return statement I get the same behavior as you.
    It does mention in the help for the source (only during the wizard though) that this source type has to be expressed that way, but I agree it would be helpful if the tool would validate for this format when 'Function Returning SQL Query' is used or give some sort of indication of the trouble. Anyway, this should get you going again.
    Hope this helps,
    John

    Google Chrome comes with its own Flash plugin and can play mp4 files natively.
    Firefox doesn't support playing MP4 files and you would need a Flash player anyway with type="application/x-shockwave-flash" to play such a file.

  • I want to use a customized photoshop button with my composition and have rollover effect

    I'm trying to place a photoshop button into a blank composition widget trigger. When I cut a paste the image into the trigger it looses its fuctionality and no longer switches colors during rollover. It works fine in the lightbox composition, but the problem with lightbox composition is that it does not have rollover options to display the target only click. How do I get around this problem. I want to have my own customized button with the composition effect within muse cc.

    You should check the design layout and states defined for the trigger , if the state is defined properly then it should show the rollover state, but the target container corresponding to the trigger is on the page then it would show you the active state not the rollover state.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit

  • Flash Catalyst CS5 resizable application with webpage zoom?

    Hi guys,
    I've come back to Catalyst cs5 after a long while of not using it and am wondering if it is possible to create something and make it resizable?
    I seem to remember reading a while back about a way to do it in flash builder but can't for the life of me find the discussion again.
    What I have is a basic photo gallery with thumbnails on the side and one large image that changes when you click the thumbnail. All this is great on a standard webpage but when you zoom in on the web browser with CTRL and + or zoom out with CTRL and -  the SWF stays the same size. I'd like to be able to make it so the SWF resizes with the zoom so people with trouble seeing can view it bigger.
    Does anybody have any idea how I can do this, if it is possible? (Baring in mind I can't upgrade to Catalyst 5.5)
    Thanks,
    Gareth

    Hi,
    That really helped me out!
    I was playing around with importing all different file types to see what would crash Flash Catalyst and it appears to just be .flv files, because it imports images, mp3s, and swf files and .f4v video files with no problems. Hey, at least now I can continue importing videos as long as they are .f4v's!
    Would still be helpful to figure out why it doesn't like .flv's though...
    The step are: File>Import>Video/Sound File...Dialogue box opens, I choose any .flv file (include files which seemed to work fine before) and the program just quits itself giving me the error report window. When I use .f4v files no such problem occurs...
    Will send you a yousendit link containing one of the guilty .flv files now - this is a .flv file I used in creating a page with flash Catalyst just days ago before it decided it would no longer import them.
    Thanks for your help so far
