Using Flash CS4 Scroll Pane

Hi all,
I have been looking for an app or something to make a scrollable window for a site I am working on and realised Flash CS4 has a Scroll Pane, great!
Watched one to two tutorials and for some reason they are all CS3 but I think I can work round that but have one question.
I am making the background transparent as all I want to display is scrollable text but can I colour the scroll bar itself?
I don't want it the gray and white, I would like it coloured or better still semi transparent, glass effect looking.
Is this possible? Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance, P.

Hi,
Well kinda sorted this and did find the Component Assets folder but think I messed this up by deleting or editing stuff I shouldn't.
Does anyone have any tutorials on doing a Scroll Pane in CS4 that also shows how to edit the scroll bar?
I thought this would be easy however I feel I'm making a pigs dinner out of this ;-)
Thank you.

How can we create such navigation buttons using Flash CS4?

Hi,
How can we create such navigation buttons using Flash CS4 is in the following website? Please help me with any such tutorial to make my custom navigation bar/buttons.

Thanks.

While the Note 4 is a reasonably large device it still falls into the phone layout bucket. We need this layout to function on very small screens some as low as 320 pixels high and 240 pixels wide. These sorts of devices don't have the space for a full toolbar.

Flash CS4 floating panes redraw

Hi,
I recently upgraded to CS4 and this issue appeared, so far only in Flash: a few times every minute, the screen blinks and floating panes that are not attached to the window will do a redraw of some portion of the pane (usually the top) as seen in the images below. It seems to have a preference of redrawing portions of the timeline in the actions pane, however this is not always the case. The only solution is to close the pane and open it again. It's difficult to pinpoint what triggers this; sometimes doublelcicking into a movieclip will make it happen, sometimes advancing the timeline will. I am on a Windows XP Pro SP3, Intel 2.4 Quad Core, 3.5 GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI video card with all drivers updated as of yesterday. I am clueless.

Flash CS4 can't use arial-keeps changing to arial MT (font mappings - missing fonts)

I am using Flash CS4 on Windows Server 2003 (i know it sounds strange, but there are reasons).
I previously had Flash CS2, but ever since I installed CS4 my font mappings have been messed up. Any time I open a fla with any standard fonts (arial, tahoma, etc) it tells me the fonts are missing. When this happens with arial..I set the font mapping back to arial, and everything seems to work fine. Until I try to change a text field to arial. When I do this flash automatically changes it to arial MT. It will not let me use arial. This really isn't a problem until I am using a dynamic text field. Because dynamic text fields use system fonts, so when a user opens one of my swf's on their computer it looks for arial MT not arial. If they don't have arial MT (which most people don't) it changes the font to their system default (usually times new roman).
The only work around I have found successful is to embed the fonts in the dynamic text field. I really don't want to do this as I am just wanting to use arial. I have search the ends of the internet and can't find anyone else with a similar problem.
To sum it up...
My flash cs4 font mappings are messed up. It won't let me use arial. Forces me to use arial MT.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I had an existing Flash website, opened CS4 received Arial font no good. Looked up the solution. At Microsoft is said that the mappings were confused by the names used for arial, no problems download the patch.
Next time still the error message PLUS now the fonts come up as a combination of symbols best described as rubbish. I wanted arial, plain old no nonsense arial.
Any tips to overcome the patch?
Also had a crash like this one

He feels it is not a font problem but a stability issue.
Thanks

Flash CS4 on MacOS 10.6.7 crashing when 'test movie' used

Hi all,
I have a MacBook Pro running Mac OS 10.6.7. I am using Flash CS4 10.0.2.
I recently upgraded computers from another MacBook Pro, and installed the same version of CS4 on this new one.
However, given this new computer has lots more RAM and more grunt and is by far less 'clogged up' than my old one (which was about three years old) it crashes all the time when I press CMD-ENTER to test my movies in Flash.
These are FLA's I've worked on for months on my other computer. When I open the SWFs in Flash Player (i.e. outside the authoring environment) I do not get any crashes.
I have noticed the CPU rockets upwards to 100% just before the crash (and hovers around 80% even when nothing is moving on the screen etc). It doesn't do this in the Flash Player.
I have scoured the web and can't seem to find what the problem might be. They're known good FLAs (i.e. they worked on my other computer in the same version of Flash) and this computer should definitely be able to cope with them, given the old one did. What might be the cause?
Here's an example of the error report that Mac OS throws up after the crash:

There's more info in the report but I imagine this is the significant bit.
If anyone at all can suggest an answer to this problem that fixes it or contributes directly to a fix, I'll send you a thank-you gift of some description regardless of wherever in the world you might be. I'm losing hours and hours of productivity on this.
Many thanks!

As you've discovered some applications don't launch correctly using Migration Assistant. In particular Adobe applications like Acrobat or the Creative Suite should generally be newly installed from their install disks.
It's probably because Adobe applications spread their resources between many different files in many different places. They also are serialized (so they won't be stolen) requiring secret serialization files to be installed. Some of that probably isn't being copied in a way that will make it work after migration assistant.

I could really use some Flash CS4 help.....

I have used Flash CS4 but I have a problem that no one seems to have an answer? This may be a bug in the software, I don't really know. Here's the problem:
I create a flash movie, including sound clips, and export the movie in an .avi format and the masks won't work.
I export the exact same movie in a .swf format and the masks work but the sound clips don't. The sound clips don't even show as a "blue bar" across the movie as they normally do?
Do any of your really intelligent people know how to get the export of a movie in Flash CS$ into a .avi or .swf format making both the masks and sound clips work? I'm using Corel Video Studio Pro X2 on a PC. Ton's of RAM. I build this computer to build video's.
Thanks!!!

How to deinterlace live video using flash as a broadcaster?

I am trying to replicate the deinterlace functionality that is available in FMLE in a simple flash broadcaster that is hosted on my website.
I have built a flash broadcaster (using Flash CS4 and AS2) that connects to my FMS server with the aim that people can stream live video to the site. That all works OK; however, I would like to be able to implement a deinterlace option like that which is available in FMLE. Any clues?

go here: http://www.progettosinergia.com/flashvideo/flashvideoblog2005.htm and scroll until you see the blog entry from the 26th of September.
There is no direct link to the post.. But the solution he provdes should do the trick.

Mouse cursors in flash cs4

Hi,
Im working on a big gallery page and i included some zoom and pan features.
After the user click on one of the zoom buttons i want the cursor to change into a hand so the user will now that he can
pan the image and when the user click and drag i want the cursor to change to like a closed hand that will tell the user that as
long as the mouse is clicked the image will be dragable.
My question is if theres a collection of cursor status in flash that i can use or that i need to find the icons import them to flash
and then change the code ?

Thank you for your help! (sorry,I`m bad in English...)
In fact, it works.
but,I made a mistake,the reason I want to give a list a horizontalScrollBar is:I want to show all content in a list that is not wide enough,
you see,first row can show all content in this list,but in the other rows,the content is too wide to show,I want to give the list a horizontalScrollBar to show all content by draging the horizontalScrollBar to right.
now,set property:
list.horizontalScrollPolicy="on", list.maxHorizontalScrollPosition=30;(the result is the image above),when I drag the horizontalScrollBar to right:
ah ha ,the row can`t show all content too,the horizontalScrollBar is related to the width of all the list, is not related to the width of the content in every row.
now I kown why the horizontalScrollBar is always disable.
but in design,to show a lot of content,we can`t draw a list too wide, it`s not beatiful,so I want to use a horizontalScrollBar to show all content in every row.
and the list is not too wide
ah ah, like the list in Flex4
In fact,ah,I have not studied Flex 4,so,I have to make it by using Flash CS4 Component
How can I do? Please
(so sorry for my bad English,I do my best in it)

Need to import from Maya 3D model in an Air-flash cs4 desktop application without loosing quality

Hello everybody,
We developed an air flash cs4 desktop application for the medical industry.
Our application is too large because instead of using the 3 D model made via Maya, we use many images to simulate the rotation in order to keep the hight quality of the images.
When we first developed the application we used C++ but we were loosing too much quality because we could not import the texture and the light effect at the same time - we could import only one of them.
Now that we are using flash cs4 do you know if we could import in flash cs4 the 3D model which contains a hight amount of polygone with the texture and the light effect without any problem ? that could solve maybe our issu regarding the size of our application.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards
Rachel

I would look into using Papervision 3D, a full 3D engine for Flash. This is built by a 3rd party, but is the current standard for doing these types of things.
You can export the Maya project out to a compatible format for use in Papervision.

Why is Flash CS4 so terrible in Windows 7 64 Bit?

Hello,
Well, I still have yet to see any posts or answers to posts that address the following problems with Flash CS4 on Windows 7 64 Bit:
1. Flash takes half of forever to load.
2. Flash is slow.
3. Flash will not allow to Test Movies or Test Scenes. (This one is the most maddening and irritating.)
4. Will not publish files due to an incorrect parameter. (Notice it doesn't say WHICH one.)
Basic Specs:
Windows 7 64 Bit OS
8GB of RAM
Intel i5 750
I would really hate to have to revert to Windows XP just to use Flash CS4 reliably and I certainly am in no mood to purchase yet ANOTHER upgrade to CSx.
Windows 7 has been out for around a year. Certainly someone at Adobe can illuminate why this program functions so poorly in Windows 7.
Thank you.
MGL

Oh, and if by chance you, too, run Windows 64 Bit and Flash CS4, I would appreciate if you could share any thing you did to your system or installation to make it work better.
Please don't just say, "Well, it works for me, blah blah blah."
Thanks.

Display results of MySQL query from AMFPHP by ArrayCollection in AS3 (Flash CS4)

Hi, i am using Flash CS4 (AS3) + AMFPHP + MySQL to do own flash frontend for Wordpress CMS. Everything is going fine but i`ve got one problem. Problem with properly display of result of query in AS3 by using ArrayCollection.
When i check my service in "amfphp/browser/" in web browser i`ve got this (with all needed data):
(mx.collections::ArrayCollection)#0
filterFunction = (null)
length = 2
list = (mx.collections::ArrayList)#1
length = 2 source = (Array)#2
That is the reason that i suppose that service work fine. Problem is when i try to display result in AS3. In actionscript i have got this:
function getNewsListHandler(result:Object):void{
trace(result);
This function displays: [object Object].
I know that "result" is an ArrayCollection type but i don`t know how to get rows and columns from this. I know that my data is there but i have no idea how to get it.
Clarify: I don`t know how to get to Arrays and simple data variables which are in ArrayCollection.
Could anyone help me with that problem. I would be gratefull
P.S. I tried also change query type in service.PHP for mysql_fetch_query but in that case i`ve got only one row (not all data).

Thanks for fast reply,
arr_coll:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection ({col1:"data1",col2:"data2"}, {col1:"data3",col2:"data4"});
you would get the data like
var resultstr:String = arr_coll[1][1].col2;
trace(resultstr);
//results in data4
could you explain me how it was happen (arr_coll[1][1].col2)? It`s not clear to me. I thought in this case rather something like this :
var resultstr:String = arr_coll[1]['col2'];
It should give me "data4". I know it wasn`t but i don`t understand ArrayCollection in level which is needed to use your advice in my case. Could you clarify "arr_coll[1][1].col2" a bit?
What would it look like when you would have something like this:
arr_coll:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection ({col1:"data1",col2:"data2"}, {col1:"data3",col2:"data4"},{col1:"data5",col2:"data6"},{col1:"data7",col2:"data8"});
and you would want know f.e. position in ArrayCollection of "data6". How would you code this? arr_coll[1][2].col2?

? Flash CS4, Is it possible to adjust the length of multiple timelines at once?

Hi,
I am using Flash CS4. Is there any way to adjust the length of multiple timelines at once? I am doing an animation of leaves falling from a tree. The leaves alone have 17 separate timelines on separate layers plus each has it's own guide layer.
If I had the ability to to select all of the timelines together and adjust all of their respective start and end times at the same same time, relative to each other as well as separately, life would be so much easier!
Of course I can do it timeline by timeline, no problem, but I can't seem to adjust the length of more than one timeline at a time. (no pun intended)
Even when I select more than one timeline, the double arrow only adjusts the length of one timeline. Even each guide layer's length has to be adjusted separately. I understand the benefit of this, but, testing timing and making adjustments would be so much simpler and go so much faster if I could select and drag multiple timeline lengths at the same time.
Is there any way to do this?
I'm new to Flash so, thanks in advance for your patience with me!
SabelV

Thanks! I had a feeling. It's nice to have the answer. Oh well, now I can get back to work and not waste any more time with that part of the puzzle. You've been very helpful and I'm sure your answer is correct. Wish I knew how to rate your answer even higher. Thanks again!

Can't properly create motion tweens between two keyframes in flash CS4

I'm trying to create a flash animation of a wing flapping using three keyframes. The first keyframe is at frame 1. I then created a second keyframe at frame 5 by pressing F6, and then I created another keyframe at frame 10 by pressing F6. At frame 5, I rotated the wing so that it is going up. Frame 10 is the same as frame 1.
frame 1:
frame 5: frame 10:
I right clicked on a frame between frames 5 and 10 and then clicked the first option, "Create Motion Tween"; I then performed the same action on a frame between frames 1 and 5. When I preview or test the movie, there is no transition between the frames. From frame 1 to 5, there is supposed to be a transition of the wing flapping up. From frame 5 to 10, there is supposed to be a transition of the wing flapping downwards to its initial position. Instead, when I test the movie, the wing remains still until frame 5 and instantly goes to its "wing up state" and when it gets to frame 10, instantly goes to its "wing down state".
Here is what the timeline looks like after I've made the changes mentioned above:
I'm using Flash CS4 to make the animation but the tutorial I'm following is using Flash CS3. I know I can use other methods to create the motion tween but I want to know why the method I'm using isn't working.

I did switch to classic tweening. I pressed F6 to make a keyframe at frames 5 and 10. I then right clicked on a frame between frames 1 and 5 and then clicked
"create CLASSIC tween"; did the same thing between frames 5 and 10. I'm not seeing the transitional frames between frames 1 and 5 that the tutorial showed.

Can't create a transition effect in flash cs4

hey,
I'm having trouble creating a fade in transition using flash cs4. I've tried to using windows > behaviors but there is not option for screen > transition. Does anyone know the actionscript code for a transition? Or how to put one in. I have 2 frames with a picture on each frame set at 1 frame per second intervals.
Thanks!,
Joseph
