When can support the AS3 swf files in the Director?

AS3 has existed for a very long time, but Director 11 con't
support it.
So, I want know that when can support the AS3 swf files in
the Director?
Thanks.

Director 11 supports AS3, but to my knowledge you cannot use
components in your flash file.

Where is the StrobeMediaPlayback.swf file in the zip?

Hi, I just download the osmf 2.0 zip on sourceforge.
In the folder OSMF/player/StrobeMediaPlayback/html-template/ there is no StrobeMediaPlayback.swf.
Somebody can explain me what's wrong?

The iPhoto cache file is located in your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. Also there is an iPod Photo Cache folder inside the iPhoto Library package that might affect your syncing. You can try clearing out both of those two folders and see if there's any improvement.

Why can I see my .swf file in the folder on the web hosting server but it doesn't display on the page?

Go to www.handstool.net, go to "products" tab in menu bar, "clamshells" link in sub-menu.

That's strange.
When I view source directly from your page via the URL you provided even I don't see it.
But when I do a Save As your page and open the html I see following part in your code..look at the part in red (this is not in view source though):
<style type="text/css">

</style><style media="screen" type="text/css">#FlashID {visibility:hidden}</style></head><body class="twoColFixRtHdr">

Unable to load next swf file in the browser.

Hi,
Im facing problem while loading the next swf file in the
browser.
I have divided my files and named it as 1.swf, 2.swf, and so
on and i wrote the script 4 calling next swf.
It is working when i called thru HTML in local system. When i
upload into my server and called thru php, next file is not
loading.
Code in the button : :
on (release)
{ loadMovie("2.swf", 0);
Any ideas or suggestion?
Help would be appreciated.

BitmapData draw method doesn't work when the project is published as the .swf file of the web applic

Hi,
        I am totally confused by this strange error. When I tried using the draw method of BitmapData to draw a movieclip symbol of my project, it seems to work fine locally. However, as I uploaded the published .swf file to my web server and launched it as the plugin of my web application, it failed. The source codes as follows,
function printscreenClicked():void
     //ExternalInterface.call calls a javascript function to print message1
    var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(stage.width,stage.height);
    //ExternalInterface.call calls a javascript function to print message2
bd.draw(stage);
    //ExternalInterface.call calls a javascript function to print message3
message3 didn't show at all. Instead, the browser console shows "Uncaught Error: Error calling method on NPObject.". My understanding of this error message is that the .swf is calling something crashing, and I believe that bd.draw(stage)is the crashng method call.
Also, here is my html embed tag:
    <embed src="/tests/videoplayer.swf" id="flash" quality="high" height="510" width="990" scale="exactfit" name="squambido" align="middle" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" style="margin: 0px auto;clear:both;position:relative;"/>
Can someone help me?

Thank you for your reply.
I tried stageWidth and stageHeight, but it still doesn't work.
The draw() methid is triggered when I clicked a screenshot button in my application as follows,
ExternalInterface.addCallback("printscreenClicked", printscreenClicked);
function printscreenClicked():void
     //ExternalInterface.call calls a javascript function to print message1
    var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(stage.width,stage.height);
    //ExternalInterface.call calls a javascript function to print message2
bd.draw(stage);
    //ExternalInterface.call calls a javascript function to print message3
Would you please give me an example of "waiting for Event.RESIZE is good, or just at least Event.ENTER_FRAME"?
My real purpose in this application is to capture a snapshot of a streaming video. The video is contained in a movieclip object. I tried stage first since BirmapData.draw() doesn't work when drawing the movieclip on the web site. Do you have any suggestion for this situation? Also, is there any good method to find out what happened if the browser have "Uncaught Error: Error calling method on NPObject."?

Can I combine two methods of code to load various SWF files into the same location

I presently have a set up where a large SWF file brought on the stage by clicking small icons from the scrollable thumbnail menu on the bottom of the stage. All of it happens at the same frame with .xml loading file.
Here is the code for constructing the ImageLoader(for thumbnails) and SWFLoader for (bigger SWF files)
[CODE]
   function _xmlCompleteHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void {
   _slides = [];
   var xml:XML = event.target.content; //the XMLLoader's "content" is the XML that was loaded.
   var imageList:XMLList = xml.image; //In the XML, we have <image /> nodes with all the info we need.
   //loop through each <image /> node and create a Slide object for each.
   for each (var image:XML in imageList) {
    _slides.push( new Slide(image.@name,
          image.@description,
          new ImageLoader("loadingAssets/appThumbnails/slideshow_image scroller greenSock_mine/assets/thumbnails/appThmb_imgs/" + image.@name + ".jpg",
               name:image.@name + "Thumb",
               width:_THUMB_WIDTH,
               height:_THUMB_HEIGHT,
               //centerRegistration:true,//messes up the code as places SWFLoader in the upper left corner which is 0,0 coordinates
               //x:260, y:320,//doesn't work here but works in line 69
               scaleMode:"proportionalInside",
               bgColor:0x000000,
               estimatedBytes:13000,
               onFail:_imageFailHandler}),
          new SWFLoader("loadingAssets/appThumbnails/slideshow_image scroller greenSock_mine/assets/images/" + image.@name + ".swf",
                name:image.@name + "Image",
                width:_IMAGE_WIDTH,
                height:_IMAGE_HEIGHT,
                //centerRegistration:true,//messes up the code as places SWFLoader in the upper left corner which is 0,0 coordinates
                x:0, y:144,
                scaleMode:"proportionalInside",
                bgColor:0x000000,
                estimatedBytes:820000,
                onFail:_imageFailHandler})
[/CODE]
Here is what I would like to resolve. I have another section on the site with an image collage. Every image is a button. I want to script this each image on click to go to the label with ImageLoader and SWFLoader AND TO OPEN A UNIQUE SWF (ASSOCIATED WITH AN IMAGE CLICKED) ON THAT PAGE
Previously this is what I did to achieve it. I would specify a String:
[CODE]
var sourceVar_ProductsPopUps:String;
[/CODE]
and then all my buttons will have their unique SWF assigned for them which opens at another labeled section ("prdctsPopUps" in this example):
[CODE]
function onClickSumix1PopUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
sourceVar_ProductsPopUps="prdcts_popups/sumix1-popup_tl.swf";
gotoAndPlay("prdctsPopUps");
[/CODE]
Then in the "prdctsPopUps" section I would specify that var string to bring up SWF files. The value of sourceVar_ProductsPopUps allows to load mulitple SWFs from the previous page.
[CODE]
loaderProductPopUps = new SWFLoader(sourceVar_ProductsPopUps,
[/CODE]
But I need both of them to be working at the same time. First there is a sectionA from where a user can navigate to specifically targeted SWF to section B's SWFLoader. Then in the section B a user has an option to bring up other SWF files into SWFLoader from the scrollable thumbs menu. Is there a way to combine these two lines into one:
[CODE]
          new SWFLoader("loadingAssets/appThumbnails/slideshow_image scroller greenSock_mine/assets/images/" + image.@name + ".swf",
[/CODE]
and
[CODE]
new SWFLoader(sourceVar_ProductsPopUps,
[/CODE]

Thanks for looking into my issue.
Unfortunatelly I am not so advanced in AS and do not complitely understand the logic of the problem. I will try to decribe my set up more precise.
So, my main flash file is broken into labeled sections on the main time line.
One of the sections is "Applications" It has an animated collage of images. Each image acts as a button and once clicked brings a user to a section called "ApplicationsPopUps".
"ApplicationsPopUps" section has small image thumbnails scroll menu at the bottom of the screen and a large SWFLoader in the middle of the screen. User can click on an image in the thumbnails scroll menu and a corresponding SWF file will load in the middle of the screen in SWFLoader. User can click on left/right navigation buttons and preceeding/following SWF file will load in SWFLoader.
Everything works fine (with your previous help)
Here is the working code for the ImageLoader and SWFLoader (please let me know if you need additional code on the page):
function _xmlCompleteHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void {        _slides = [];       var xml:XML = event.target.content; //the XMLLoader's "content" is the XML that was loaded.        var imageList:XMLList = xml.image; //In the XML, we have nodes with all the info we need.        //loop through each node and create a Slide object for each.       for each (var image:XML in imageList) {         _slides.push( new Slide(image.@name,               image.@description,               new ImageLoader("loadingAssets/appThumbnails/slideshow_image scroller greenSock_mine/assets/thumbnails/appThmb_imgs/" + image.@name + ".jpg",               {                    name:image.@name + "Thumb",                    width:_THUMB_WIDTH,                    height:_THUMB_HEIGHT,                    //centerRegistration:true,//messes up the code as places SWFLoader in the upper left corner which is 0,0 coordinates                    //x:260, y:320,//doesn't work here but works in line 69                   scaleMode:"proportionalInside",                    bgColor:0x000000,                    estimatedBytes:13000,                    onFail:_imageFailHandler}),                 new SWFLoader("loadingAssets/appThumbnails/slideshow_image scroller greenSock_mine/assets/images/" + image.@name + ".swf",                   {                     name:image.@name + "Image",                     width:_IMAGE_WIDTH,                     height:_IMAGE_HEIGHT,                     //centerRegistration:true,//messes up the code as places SWFLoader in the upper left corner which is 0,0 coordinates                   x:0, y:144,                     scaleMode:"proportionalInside",                     bgColor:0x000000,                     estimatedBytes:820000,                     onFail:_imageFailHandler})
Thumbnails in the section "ApplicationsPopUps" and images in the image collage in the section "Applications" represent the same photographs. So when a user clicks on one of the images in "Applications" section it would be natural that that image will load in the "ApplicationsPopUps" section. However "ApplicationsPopUps" section presently has a working code (as sampled above) It looks too complex for me and I do not know hot to implement this feature. I do want to keep the functionality of the thumbs image scroller in section "ApplicationsPopUps" as it is now. But I want to add that when a user click on an image from section"Applications" then that particular SWF file will load in SWFLoader in section "ApplicationsPopUps" and then the present functionality can as well be exectuted. Presently it just opens on a first image in xml order.
P.S. I see that you had a download link in your answer. How did you do it? I could also upload a small sample file with my problem. This way you could see all the set up right away.

How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better?

How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better? Is there an option inside of the dreamweaver menu that I am not looking at. It would make it easier on me if I changed some things around and didn't have to do it all myself each time I used it. Just incase you was needing to remember what swf flash was, It is not a swf video either.

If I understand correctly, Sonic Kaboom.swf needs to be edited in a separate Flash authoring program and then reinserted into your HTML document.
As Murray said, Flash is dead. Nobody uses it anymore.   We use HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript animations which have universal support from Smartphones, Tablets and other web devices that can't support Flash.   Look at Edge Animate.

Can I load AS3 swf in AS2 file

I have downloaded a xmlphotoalbum (www.xmlphotoalbum.com) which is in AS3 and uses lots of external classes and functions,
I am trying to load it withing a AS2 movie but it's not running and it is not giving me any errors.
how can I make this run?
would you please download the xmlphotoalbum and try it?
I am not using an AS3 file to load the xmlphotoalbum because I don't know how to handel AS3 and load external swf files and play then and then unload them.
I have tried using the get ulr and addchild() fucntions. but since I am not experienced it AS3 it's bit confusing for me and also I dont know how to control the playback of the loaded swf files.
I am doing all this for a CD presentation, not a a web site.

How to unload the external .swf file when move on to other section?

Hi,
The following code provided by Mr. kglad works great in loading an external .swf file onto stage. Now, when I click on Contact (Button), the external .swf file to be removed completely. How to code on contact (Button) to work it out.
Gallery.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, GalleryClick);
function GalleryClick(e:Event):void{
if(currentClip != Gallery_mc){
currentClip.visible = false;
Gallery_mc.visible =true;
currentClip =Gallery_mc;}
var loader:Loader=new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, ClipLoaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("Gallery.swf"));
function ClipLoaded(e:Event):void{
Gallery_mc.addChild(loader);
loader.x=0;
loader.y=120;
loader.width=1000;
loader.height=700
I tried the following code for Contact_btn to unload the Gallery.swf file which throws an error: 1120: Access of undefined property loader.
Contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ContactClick);
function ContactClick(e:Event):void{
if(currentClip != Cotnact_mc){
currentClip.visible = false;
Cotnact_mc.visible =true;
currentClip = Cotnact_mc;
Gallery_mc.removeChild(loader);}}

like so:
Gallery.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, GalleryClick);
function GalleryClick(e:Event):void{
if(currentClip != Gallery_mc){
currentClip.visible = false;
Gallery_mc.visible =true;
currentClip =Gallery_mc;}
var loader:Loader=new Loader();

loader.load(new URLRequest("Gallery.swf"));
function ClipLoaded(e:Event):void{
loader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, ClipLoaded);
Gallery_mc.addChild(loader);
loader.x=0;
loader.y=120;
loader.width=1000;
loader.height=700
I tried the following code for Contact_btn to unload the Gallery.swf file which throws an error: 1120: Access of undefined property loader.

Load and unload the external swf file using AS3(for window, IOS and android)

For the external swf file loading, I use this code
load2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, newvid);
function newvid(event:MouseEvent) {
          trace("you clicked me");
          var loadit = new Loader();
          addChild(loadit);
    var _lc:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(false, ApplicationDomain.currentDomain, null);
    loadit.load(new URLRequest("scene02.swf"), _lc);
its working great but I don’t know how to unload the loaded swf files (looking: unload one by one and unload all)
in AS2 we have
on (release) {
          loadMovieNum("scene2.swf", 1);
          unloadMovieNum(2);
          unloadMovieNum(3);
but i need in AS3

Now I use this code and this time I got these compiler errors

How can I call in swf file to movie clip?

Hi all ...
This is my first post for advise, although fairly conversant
with flash and as2.
I am developing a new full screen background style website
and have menu buttons contained within a movie clip (nav_c1) ...
this re-aligns to the top centre of a page when user scales the
browser window.
I then have the content area (centre_content) movie clip ...
this realigns to the centre of the page when a user scales the
browser window.
I have scripted the menu buttons to goto a labelled frame in
the main timeline but I need, when at the labelled frame, to be
able to call/load in an external swf file to play 'inside' the
centre_content movie clip?
for example:
If I click my news button the flash file moves to the frame
label news on the main timeline. This then shows a duplicate of the
moive clip 'centre_content' which is called 'centre_news'. I need
to be able to call/load an external news.swf, containing all the
animated news info, to sit and play 'within' the movie clip
'centre_news' ... so that it is effectively contained 'within' the
movie clip file but loaded in place from an external swf file.
Can anyone help please?
I can post a rough working example online if need be.
Many thanks
A puzzled Adrian
ps: I don't think I am needing to load the swf to a level 1
area as I have tried this and instead of the swf file being loaded
and contained within my movie clip file/area it instead seems to
sit fixed on the main timeline (ie: not contained within the movie
clip area).

Thanks Sketchsta for you code. This looks like we're on the
right lines as I see what the code is trying to do.
Unfortunately though I can't seem to get this to work?
I created a new file to get rid of other scripting that was
going on and have placed a movie clip called centre_content onto
the main timeline in frame 1 ... then I have applied your script to
an actions frame above the movie clip also on frame 1. I change the
path_to_file line with my swf name (callin.swf) which is a 1 frame
flash file with some text on it ...
... but it doesn't bring in the callin.swf file ... it just
shows the centre_content clip.
Am i doing anything wrong?
I also tried putting the script onto the first frame inside
the centre_content movie clip but this doesn't appear to work
either.
Regarding the pre-loader ... can I simply build this into the
swf file that is being called in to the movie clip?
Thanks in advance for your support, it is much appreciated.

How to get the correct size of the loaded swf file?

final public class main extends Sprite
public function main()
   loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, _onLoadCompleted);
private function _onLoadCompleted(event: Event): void
   var tw: int = stage.width;
   var th: int = stage.height;
   var tsw: int = stage.stageWidth;
   var tsh: int = stage.stageHeight;
Above is my simple as3 project in flex builder 3.
My screen resolution is 1920*1080, when debugging, the swf is stretched to the full client area of the IE, but the stage.stageWidth is 500 and the stage.stageHeight is 375, both the stage.widht and stage.height are 0, who can tell me why and how to get the right size of the swf file, named the client area size of the IE in this situation?
Thanks very much!

The HTML wrapper might resize the SWF later, so wait a frame and check stageWidth/stageHeight again.
