Help Looking For A Source File.......
Hi guys this is my first post, and i hope i make sense in what im looking for.

Here goes....... ok basically i want an image slider (not sure if that the correct name) Imagine you have a strip of 10 images and a masc so only a few at a time show, when you move the mouse left the picture strip scrolls left and the same with right.
Ive found a few but id like one with buttons, so that rather than moving mouse to the left you have to mouse over the left arrow so that the pictures scroll. As the ones ive seen without buttons just scroll uncontrolably with every mouse movement.

I hope you can help, and if you need any clarification in what im looking for please ask!

Superb site by the way guys!

Source File Problem Please Help
Hi all

Problem with source file, that i made graphic adjustments, i have changed the layout and made the buttons smaller and made them closer together, because the space available to me is limited the only changes i made to the actionscript was to change the text from (german - i think to english).....the source file that i changed is

Calender- andreas- 6136 - it is a kind of schedule calender in the movies section

Problem is that in making changes to the layout the alligment of the date buttons with the days is now all skew wiff ( not in allignment) .......i cannot seem to find how to fix this, i found the mcs in the library, and made changes to teh button - primarily to make it smaller .......what i cannot find though is how to fix the alligment to what i have now got...
can anyone out there help me pleasee..........
I don't know whether it is a hidden clip of some sort or actionscript related

Please help

Thanks

The Price Of A Source File?
He people!

I've got a sticky situation here.

I have customer, who I have previously done work for (Flash presentations), who have just asked me for the source files of the work so they can send them to another company that specialises in Voice-Overs to go in the files.

However, there was never an agreement that I would release the source files ever.

This Voice-Over company is also a design agency - so I'm sure yuo can imagine my dilemma - don't want to annoy my customer and loose any possible future work, but also don't want my source files going to another design agency, when I could put the sound files in myself.

But....

What if the customer was to ask to buy the source files?

What kind of a percentage on the original price do I charge him?

Cheers

Source .fla File For An Mp3 Player?
I've been using a primative player in past versions of my site, but I'd like to have a player that has a loading indicator before a song begins to stream, and also << and >> buttons. A text field displaying the current track would be good too. And a list to choose from.

Uhh, sounds like a lot, but I've frustrated myself for two days working on one, so I decided to ask here if there was an fla I could examine...

Basically what I want is a player similar to 2A's. (http://2advanced.com)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[MX04] Looking For A Source File
Hiya,

I've seen an effect used on a few different sites where an image is placed underneath a masked area and when a button is selected the image moves UNDERNEATH the masked area to the selected part of the picture. Its a nice but simple effect and i used to have a source file for this but i can't seem to find it anywhere in the movies section of flashkit since i don't know what to search under...

I've seen it used within menus for websites or even image galleries...

anyone have any ideas where i can find this... or what to search for it as?!

Thanks in advance

Using A Loaded SWF For Which I Don't Have The Source File
Hi everyone,

Hopefully this is an easy one for you... I have a loaded SWF that plays through and stops at the end. Once it ends, I'd like the main timeline to proceed to the next scene, to continue with the demo.

Is there a way to do this without having to have access to the FLA for the loaded movie?

Thanks!

I Cant Get The Source File To Work
Here is a source file i got from this site

i have tried to recreate it by copying everyting in it, it still isn't working
if anyone can look at this and help me out that would be great!

My File

Save My Source File
The swf files download to temporary internet folder before showing up. I want to know is there any way , a script or technique in flash that the swf file does not download into the temproray internet folder so that my source file is safe from any person using decompilers.

Swf Resolution Is 3/4 Than In The Fla Source File
say if I use milimeters as unit, and draw a line 4cm long, and export, then in the swf , the size will be only 3 cm if you measure it on the screen with a ruler.
Is there any way, you can make the swf play as the same size in fla design interface?

Source AS File For NetConnection?
I've been reading the source code for the Flash Remoting classes. Connection.as extends NetConnection.as which appears to be a class native to Flash. I can't find the source for it. I searched my entire hard drive and found two classes that appear to be just interfaces -- they don't do anything (see below). Where is the source for the NetConnection class?

I also found a file called NetConnection.aso which appears to be some kind of compiled binary file. I'm guessing the functionality is inside it.

Attach Code

Weeds Fla Source File
i was wondering if someone could explain a few things about the code in this fla. it's found under the experimental actionscript, last page of the fla source files section.

i've been studying it for a couple days nows and i still cannot figure out how the position of the weeds are being set. i've been trying to change it so that the line_x is at the top of the stage and the weeds point downward, but i'm having no such luck.

i'm guessing the position has maybe something to do with this section of code:

ActionScript Code:
_root.attachMovie("line", "line" + _root.level, _root.level);
myLine = _root["line" + _root.level];
_root.level++;
var line_x = random(_root.myBounds.xMax - _root.myBounds.xMin);

if someone could just break it down what's happening that'd be great! it's been driving me crazy that i'm not figuring it out.

here is the code on the 1st frame:

ActionScript Code:
fscommand ("allowscale", false);
var total_num = 12;
var level = total_num+1;
var myBounds = boundbox.getBounds(_root);
for (i=0; i<=total_num; i++) {
attachMovie("dot", "dot"+i, i);
myDot = _root["dot"+i];
myDot._x = random(myBounds.xMax-myBounds.xMin-50)+26;
myDot._y = random((myBounds.yMax-myBounds.yMin)-60)+31;
}
stop ();

and this is the rest on the dot:

ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
var follow = false;
var min_dist = 10;
var max_move = 20;
var force = 1.4;
var a = 3;
var d = 1.6;
var newX = _parent._x;
var newY = _parent._y;
var myXspeed = 0;
var myYspeed = 0;
_root.attachMovie("line", "line"+_root.level, _root.level);
myLine = _root["line"+_root.level];
_root.level++;
var line_x = random(_root.myBounds.xMax - _root.myBounds.xMin);
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
myXspeed = ((_parent._x-newX)/a+myXspeed)/d;
myYspeed = ((_parent._y-newY)/a+myYspeed)/d;
// check mouse distance
if (Math.abs(_parent._x-_root._xmouse)<min_dist && Math.abs(_parent._y-_root._ymouse)<min_dist) {
follow = true;
this.gotoAndStop(2);
} else if (Math.abs(_parent._x-newX)>max_move || Math.abs(_parent._y-newY)>max_move) {
follow = false;
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
if (follow) {
myXSpeed += (_parent._x-_root._xmouse)/force;
myYSpeed += (_parent._y-_root._ymouse)/force;
}
_parent._x -= myXspeed;
_parent._y -= myYspeed;
// adjust line
myLine._x = _parent._x;
myLine._y = _parent._y;
myLine._xscale = line_x - _parent._x;
myLine._yscale = (_root.myBounds.yMax-_root.myBounds.yMin)-_parent._y;
myLine._alpha = 20;
}
onClipEvent(mouseDown) {
newX = random(_root.myBounds.xMax-_root.myBounds.xMin-50)+26;
newY = random(_root.myBounds.yMax-_root.myBounds.yMin-60)+31;
}

Working Off Of A PRAYSTATION Source File
Praystation has a source file called "Basic Scrollbar with Content". It's basically an inertia horizontal scroll bar.

What Im trying to do is shorten the length of the horizontal scrollbar. Right now it starts at (Left:333) and (Right:700). I want to change the right to 500 so I can have my scroller shorten in length but still scroll the long content.

Here's the code in the content actions:

scrollpos = getProperty("/scrollbar", _x);
postoset = Number((scrollpos*-2))+665;
setProperty ("/content_w_mask/content", _x, postoset);

I guess the "Number((scrollpos*-2))+665" needs to be changed to make t his work..I just dont know what to put. Any suggestions?

So the limitation of members is essential.

We can believe someone who we don't know.
That is the reason we can share our FTP approach.

Text File To Load From An Outside Source
I am trying to get Flash to display a text file from another source in Flash.

Basically, i want to make it that this content, say it's 'About Us' where the client talks about what their business is, i want to make the flash file look for a text file and display the text file, so the client can change the descriptive text, but without having to get me to add it in manually each time.

Is there a way I can achieve this?

Thanks

ScrollPane Component - Source A Txt File?
Is is possible to make a .txt file the source of a standard MX scrollpane component? I've seen a number of custom mc's in the 'movies' section of FlashKit, but haven't seen any code snippets to do so with the standard scrollpane.

The next question would then be...can you set a typeface for the scrollpane??

Thanks a Ton!

Altering Actionscript For A FLA Source File
Hello. I have downloaded a free sourcefile from www.ultrashock.com and I cannot seem to get the interface to work with me correctly. The item im reffering to is in the FLA SOURCE FILES> under NAVIGATION AND INTERFACE> called "3d Spiral Menu". It involves a single movie clip being multiplied 9 times and set behind an invisable button. However, insted of being able to create the movie clip with different names (for example, "main", "forums", etc) they all say the same thing as the first instance "Option". If anyone could show me how to make the options different, it would be most helpful. Thank you!

Symbol Properties- Source; Â€˜file: Â€™?
You can find this if you right click on a symbol in the library and select properties. And in the Source section there is a browse button for a file.

Linking Powerpoint Source File
Hi there

I'm working on one flash file. I have to give link to some documents which
includes powerpoint files also. All other format files are opening normally
in their respective applications with all the toolbars and tools . BUT the
powerpoint files are directly coming fullscreen slide shows and not as a
powerpoint application with toolbars and tools. When I give the link to the
ppt, I want the file to open in the powerpoint application but not as
fullscreen slide show.

My script looks like this:
on(release) {
getURL("xxx.ppt", 1)
}

Any ideas how to open a source ppt file inside a powerpoint application when clicking the link given in flash?

Thanks & Regards

Looping An Existing SWF File With No Source
I have a swf file but not the original source. As a novice to Flash, is it possible to cause the swf file to loop. At the moment it is embedded in an HTML file and I noticed that there is a parameter called Loop. However, setting this to true makes no difference. The movie still stops and does not loop back to the beginning.

Your help would be much appreciated!

Flash SOURCE (.fla) File Size
Just for you info

If you save a Flash file using the "Save" option, you will notice that your file slowly increases in size every time you save it, even if you leave roughly the same amount of data in the file or remove some of the data. It seems that Flash is keeping some kind of history of the file when you do so (you might find several versions of the same actionScript in the binary).

If you save a Flash file using the "Save As…" option, you will notice that your file size might actually go down (sometimes significantly). This is because Flash will actually wipe out all this extra information when you save as a different file.

This does not affect the size of published .swf's

Passing .flv Source Name Into .swf Player File
So I'm trying to use CS3 to convert all my windows media videos over to Flash. I've successfully used Flash Encoder to encode them as .FLV files. Then I've successfully used Flash to create .swf files to house them, complete with skin (all pretty easy, as you can import the .flv files into Flash and it automatically prompts you on what to do). I've also successfully launched these videos on the web, complete with the javascript and skin necessary.

So everything works, except I'd rather not create an .swf file for EVERY video I have. I'd rather have one .swf file and pass the value of the video name through into to, through a $_GET or URL append. In other words, I want video.swf to read "campaign" from get_videos.php?video=campaign, and play campaign.flv.

I used to be barely proficient at actionScript 2.0, so now 3.0 is way beyond me, and this is the only thing I'll ever need this software for.

I realize there's a "source" parameter in the "FLVplayback" instance, which Flash created when I imported the video. I just don't know how to have it change dynamically based on the URL parameter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Jeremy
