How To Find Where A Specific Font Is Used
I'm doing revisions for a Flash piece for my employer. Whoever originally designed it must have used the font Myriad Pro somewhere in the document because when Flash opens the document, it tells me I don't have the font. I looked through the document and the only font I can find that is used is Verdana. So to single out the missing font, I mapped it to Webdings for the time being so it would stick out. I still can't find it.

Is there a way to pinpoint where a specific font is used in a text area or symbol?

[F8] How Do I Find The Index (key) Of A Specific Value In An Array?
Hello All,
Is there a way to retrieve a specific element's index key if you only know the value of the element?
Usually, you give Flash an index ([0], [1], [2]...) and it gives you the value of the element at that position. I would like to do the inverse, because I know what the values of the array will be... however, they could be in any order.

Example:
myArray_array("Chris", "Mike", "Fred", "Jen", "Susan")

I want to remove "Fred" from the array; however, I don't know Fred's index key... and he could be anywhere in the array. Also, after removing "Fred", I do NOT want the array to contain an "undefined" or "empty" element where "Fred" used to be:

BAD:
myArray_array("Chris", "Mike", undefined, "Jen", "Susan")

GOOD:
myArray_array("Chris", "Mike", "Jen", "Susan")

Thanks!

[Q] How To Find The TextField Which Uses Specific Font?
Howdy...

Quick question...

Let's just say that I have a movie that has several hundred movieClips in the library...
Some are attached on the stage manually and some are attached via attachMovie() function during the runtime...

Okay... I get to see the size report when I publish the movie and I find that I am using 'Arial Bold' font and '_sans' font... I do not recall using those fonts because I get to get the graphical symbols from the other person, for example... So, I do need to find where he used those fonts... I manually open up all the movieClips and see if I can find them or not... Sometimes I can find them, but not all the time... and it's really impossible to find them if the project happen to be a year old or whatever...

So... I am just wondering if any of you know if there is a way to find the textField that uses specific font???

Thanks...

How To Find A Specific Node/attribute In Xml?
Hi,

I load an xml in as3 and need to find and output (as an XMLList) a specific node with a specific attribute, or at least find out its path (after, I would know what to do to get the XMLList). I looked at the XPath classes for Actionscript but the documentation is very poor and I did not see any method doing this. Could someone help me please? If no method exists, how can I loop through all the xml and test each node to see if it is the proper node I am looking for?

thanks so much in advance for your help

[mx] Cant Find Tutorial...
I wanted to add a self-drawing line to my page but the only types of tutorials I can find in that category make the user draw the line themselves. Does anyone know where that tutorial is that explains how to coordinate the line? Or do I just use tweens and transforms? I'm sure there was a tutorial that make it look a lot smoother with the final product. Hmmmm...... Let me know if you know of the one I'm talking about.

An Old Post Or Tutorial I Now Can't Find...HELP
Ok, the other day I was poking around looking for something to learn, and as usuall I found more than I could handle and got sidetracked. In the meantime I didn't bookmark some of the great stuff I came across.

So there was this tutorial that had three or four pictures on the stage. Let's stay they were stacked on one another sort of like if you dropped a few polaroids on the table. Then when you clicked on any given one it would be brought to the foreground. Then you could drag that one away and click on another buried one and bring that to the foreground.

Any Ideas???

I'm 99% positive it was on Kirupa (since this is the only tutorial site I go on) and I'm pretty sure it was in the action script tutorials.

Anyway, any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Jamie

Can't Find ONE Tutorial On How To Do This Simple Thing
I've seen tute after tute on how to make a preloader by detecting if all the frames of scene 'x' is loaded, and if loaded, it goes to play that scene.

BUT, I have a movie with like 7 scenes, so how in the world do I make sure all of them are loaded before it starts to play them entire movie? Because all I can do now, is make sure the first scene is loaded, but that doesn't do me any good when the next 6 scenes start trying to play, but aren't pre-loaded.

PLEASE HELP !!!

Thanks a bunch.

Where Can I Find This Layout Effect's Tutorial?
Hey, I'm looking for a tutorial on a specific navigation/layout effect. The effect I'm looking for is pretty common... its when you click (or rollover) a navigation button, the background scrolls by actionscript to get to the correct page. The background is one movie clip with all of the different pages' different background images, then on click the actionscript scrolls over to it. On each pages image is any text and other info needed for that page. Pretty common, I just really need a tute on it. I downloaded a source file (from ultrashock.com) and I'm still struggling to make sense of it, so some direction on where to find a tutorial on this would be great. Hope you all can help me on this one...

A Image Scrolling Tutorial I'm Trying To Find...
There is this tutorial i stumbled upon several weeks back which i thought i could use in this site i was developing. It was simple but i could not get it right when i tried to make my own version. The tutorial is about scrolling serveral images one by one by clicking the two direction buttons depending which way you want the images to scroll. It's like a terrain scrolling tutorial except you have different images and you control it by clicking the buttons. the images also decelerate when you select them.(ie: the image slows down, until entirely inside the viewing window, to a halt.

If you know of this tutorial, please post a link to it here or send via email to:

Viking.no1@gmail.com

Many thanks.

[MX04] Can't Find Tutorial Files
I am attempting to get started with Flash MX 2004. Using the getting started menu I run into a problem almost immediately.

Quote:

browse to <boot drive> Documents and Settings<username>Local SettingApplication Data Macromedia Flash MX 2004<language>ConfigurationHelpPanel HowDoI QuickTasksstart_files and double-click accessibility_start.fla

unfortunately, when following that path, there is no folder called flash MX. All I really need is the accessibility_start.fla file, however it is nowhere on my computer and as of right now I cannot find it on the web either.

Has anybody else had this problem and if so can you tell me where to find the file? If you have it would you be willing to email it to me?

Thanks
