Flash App That Auto-builds .exe's
Hi,
I've been thinking about building a menu system creator that an operator can use to select items that will make up a final menu system. For example, the operator could pick any permutation of options from a choice of, say, 50.
What I need to know is if there is any way that a Flash application such as this menu builder can automatically create a Flash projector at the click of a button; or is there any way to publish using AS inside an swf, and without the main Flash shell?
If anybody has any thoughts on this, or has done something similar, then feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Ta.

Issue With Certain Flash Player 9 Builds Running AS3
Hello All,
I am having an issue with certain Flash Player 9 builds when running AS3 code. Currently, the SWF will play properly if the build is 9.0.47.0 or greater. However, if the build is lower, i.e., 9.0.28.0, any SWF that uses the native Flash components, i.e. listbox, button, etc., do not display properly on stage. An illustration of the issue can be viewed here. Is this a known issue?
The problem would seem to be easily rectified by upgrading the FP Version, however, this is a course that is being taken on machines that are 'locked' down from immediate upgrades.
Any suggestions or insight on how or why this error is occuring and other possible ways to resolve it.
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
Help On AS Code That Builds 3d Menu
Hey, guys!
I was following one tutorial that I found on GotoandLearn.com and got some doubts...
You see, thatīs a 3d rotation menu (like a carousel) all based on AS... And it rotates in a clockwise direction... When a menu item gets in the middle of the rotation it gets bigger, in order to make the depth illusion... Right now this is happening once the menu item gets on the right-middle of the circle... The point is that I want to make it get bigger once it reaches the left-middle of circle...
Since itīs hard to explain what I am talking about, I am sending the fla to help...
Thanks in advance, guys!
Large Project Builds
In a nutshell, I am looking for a build tool and continuous integration tool that work well for large Flash/ActionScript projects. It also has to play nice with FlexUnit or AsUnit.
I see that Ant and Antennae are used by some folks for builds, but Ant has always driven me nuts with its verbose XML syntax. If this is really the best choice right now I suppose I can bite the bullet, but I would rather not!
Any suggestions?
Text/Bullet List Builds/Transitions?
Hi Folks,
I have a block of text consisting of several bullet points. I now want to turn this list into a build which automatically wipes or reveals each bullet point individually as you would in a Powerpoint presentation. How can I accomplish this effect in Flash?
BTW, I am building this as a Flash Slide Presentation.
Thanks in advance.

[CS3] Auto-play/Auto-resume: Is It Possible?
Hi,
I'm making an interactive film. At certain points within the film, the viewer has the ability to select from a few options that will direct them to an external video clip (they are flashback scenes). The main story pauses when the user selects a flashback scene and I'm clear on how to achieve this.
However, my issue is that once the flashback scene ends and the external video closes, I'm not sure how the main story will resume. Is it possible for it to auto-play (resume) in some way? My last resort would be to have the viewer select a play button - this is only because I do not want a break in the narrative and want to limit the amount of clicks the viewer has to make.
Basically, I really just want to know if what I want to achieve is realistic without making the viewer initiate the action. Any suggestions and comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Auto Submit/auto Counter

Have A Flv Not Auto-play But Still Auto-buffer?
I know in the flash video player component's parameters you can set autoplay to true or false, but can you make it so the video will buffer even if autoplay is set to false, and without the user hitting play?
I wan't no delay once they hit play, but they don't have to watch the video.

Flash Auto Img Name (CMS)
I'm creating a photography site where the user wants to upload different photos into different sections.
Rather than going down the flash cms (flashblocks?) route, I know how to create a fpt client so that they can upload photos into a folder where the flash file can read them from, but how would i go about create a image description/title for each picture?
Could it read it from the image file name?
Any other suggestions?

Auto Triggered In Flash CS3 Via AS3?
It seems to be a very fundamental question, but I have no clue how as3 works in flash cs3... maybe it's a brand new OOP structure I guess?
So here is my question:
Before in AS2, we can declare a class, then import it into the frame, something like this:
Code:
import somewhere_in_path.ANewClass;
var a:ANewClass = ANewClass();
But seems that most of the flash cs3/as3 projects don't perfer this way anymore. Take a look at the following source:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/ar...o_gallery.html
it used a custom Class named FlashVideoGallery which is defined at fvgFlashVideoGallery.as , but when I check the .fla file, there's no similar code shown above entirely in the .fla project.
So what exactly is the magic? without declaring the object, but everything is still functioning.
ps. to see the main screen in fla via Flash IDE, you can turn of the first two layers (Actions & Preloaders), then goto the second frame.
Any clues or hints appreciated...(even a simple website link clarifying the concept works as well). thx in advance!

Flash CS3 Auto Save?
I haven't gotten a chance to use the new Flash yet and I was wondering if it had an autosave feature or an auto-backup feature. I've lost a lot of hours from forgetting to save every few minutes, so i was hoping that this may be featured in the new version of Flash, and if it isn't they may want to think about putting it in.

Flash Plugin Not Auto Installing On Win XP
we have recently made the jump to support FLASH MX on our website, but we were very concerned with making sure we did not exclude any users... we thought that it would be possible for the users to automatically download the cabs from macromedia and install, and run. everything seemed nice until yesterday one of our co-workers tried to access the website on windows XP, and it pops up with the macromedia "trust content , blah blah, install, yes, or no" box... so he hits yes and then we assume that everything starts to download and work, but instead... nothing happens... everything hangs, and its just a black box where the flash MX movie is. He was not a administrator on the machine, but i am not sure that matters... none-the-less, we logged him out, logged in as a admin, and hit the page and got it to work, but mere coincidence, a non-coworker user (client) accessed the website from his home computer and was on XP as a admin (personal computer) and the site did the same thing... is there a problem with windows XP? i understand the issues about the active X controls how you cant overwrite the flash 5 control, and then they came out with a new name or something to that effect, but has anyone else had this weird result? i cannot export as flash 5 because i am using buttons as objects and it seems to be a flash MX thing...
any help would be much appreciated as our website is live and we have clients hitting it every day, and would like a minimum number of problems.
thanks, Zuriel

Auto-Update Flash Gallery
I am triying to build a photo portfolio on a flash site. I want to do it dynamically. However, I want to avoid having to touch the actionscript everytime I update. So what I want to do is basically make the Flash READ the total content of the path (/images/gallery/) and organized the thumbnails.
So the update reduce to drag and drop on the right path for the site to be update. Anyone have a snippet that can do this. I was thinking something like lenght but I am not experienced working with this. Please help me.
