Microsoft IE 5 Zooms In To Part Of My Flash Page
I never noticed this earlier but it seems that IE 5 takes my flash page and zooms/resizes are particular area of my flash page. It enlarges it a great deal, making it useless to view. This doesn't happen at all in Safari or Firefox. How is this happening? Thank you.

Make A Button Load A Part Of The Flash Page
I am planing on making my entire page in flash and I have now finished all by buttons on the menu and some effects with the logo I have made. Now I am making the different parts of the page that I want to load once I press on the button it goes with, I know how to do this if I am just link to an iframe. But what do I need to do to make these parts of the page load when the corresonding buttons are pressed if I want it to be part of the same flash movie? thanx,

Swish And Microsoft Front Page
I am a newbie when it comes to the flash players and all of the "new" stuff (ok, well it's not actually new).
I'm making a webpage for a buddy and I created a movie with Swish and I can not get it to load when I try and place in on the page. Is there some kind of patch that I need for Front Page so that it'll accept a .swi format? Every time I try and load I get the message..."can not load ......".
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

A Link To A Specific Part Of Flash Site, Not Just Home Page
Hi,
I'm trying to make a link from one flash site to another, but not just to the home page of it, but to a specific part of it. For example, I run jumpgallery.com and am wanting to make the direct links from the websites of the seven artists involved (mostly flash sites) to their specific page on the jumpgallery.com site... does that make sense?
I guess it depends on how I have structered my site, but does anyone have a starting point?
Any help would be very cool...
Creating A Flash Movie That Overlaps Part Of The Rest Of The Web Page When You Rollov
I am fairly new to flash and was wondering if someone could help me to find a tutorial or tell me how to design a flash movie that gets bigger and looks like it is coming off the stage. It overlaps some of the rest of the web page that is done in something other than flash. A lot of the movie trailers that are done in flash have this effect when you mouse over them. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I hope you can understand what i am asking in my question.
Thank you

Need To Create Part Of The Effect On This Page
http://jeffvallee.com/
If you go to the url above after the signature and preloader you will see photos changing. There is a button on the bottom left. When pressed it changes the background color and the text. I tried to figure this out using a movie clip but I cannot find how to change the background so I'm thinking there is a layer that actually changes. Now the text part is really tricky and I need to recrate these two parts.
any help?
What Part Of This Code Must I Change....to Steer Users To A Link Page.

How do I do this?
What part of this code do I have to change?
Thanks.

What Part Of This Code Must I Change....to Steer Users To A Link Page.
Okay, here is the story. I have the 'detect for flash 6' template selected in my publish settings, and the following code is what it gave me.
NOw, I want to direct the user to an html page if they don't have it. What part of this code must I change to make this happen?
It looks like it is currently directing people to delightfulboy.gif.
Delightfulboy is the name of the site. But there is no gif on the site. Is it assuming that I would put one there?
Is this the part of the code that I would change?
Instead of delightfulboy.gif, I could put, newhtmlpage.html
or whatever, right?
Thanks.

Pans And Zooms
Is it possible to use motion and shape tweens on a background bitmap so that it will pan and zoom when played back?
Jerky Zooms
Hi,
I have a large movie clip that I zoom in and out of by increasing/decreasing its size. These tweened zooms are very jerky when previewed as an swf. I have tried using cacheAsBitmap and creating a bitmapdata object, but these have no effect as they can only deal with movie clips up to 2880x2880. My movie clip exceeds these dimensions. What else could I try?
Thanks
How Can I Make A Mask That Zooms Out Into Another MC?

Thx in advance,

Smooth Photo Zooms?
----- question updated 3 posts down -----
It seems that any time I try to animate the scale of a JPG in Flash the photo is very jittery (if that makes sense). It's sort of a digital shake that's occurring as a result of a poor scale engine. ... Any thoughts on what can be done to create smooth photo zooms in Flash?
What The Hell Is Wrong With Bitmap Zooms?
I absolutely cannot create results even slightly resembling the smooth image pans & zooms as seen on http://www.becominghuman.org.
See my test here: http://www.i-4band.com/greenswamp/
My results are terrible. Flash only seems to move X or Y at a time, never both in a single frame, the imagery jumps everywhere. Flash is applying terrible grids to my image to resize them...HELP!
Would actionscript be a way to manipulate the images? I have heard that using higher res images works better, what about something I hear about Alpha 99% not 100%? Someone please put an end to my frustrations with bitmap zooms.
Mc On The First Frame Zooms In The Rest Goes Alpha0
Hey!
How can i make this? I have 3 mc and i want two of them to be invisible and one visible and when i roll over one of the invisible mc i can then see it. When i press it the visible mc goes to alpha 0 and the mc i pressed tween (zoom in).
Further explanation:
I made a map in flash with different states. The states are mc and are on one layer in the first frame. Under that layer is a duplicate of the map just one picture, one mc. So when i move the mouse over the states they change in color. And when i press one state it zoom up and the map below get alpha 0. The problem is that i have not get this to work. Can somebody help me fix this problem. I want when i press one of the states that it zoom in and the rest of the map goes alpha 0. And then when i press the state again the state goes back and map on layer 2 goes to alpha 100.
So what i have done now is:
8 mc on layer 3 is the states
On layer 2 is one mc that is the entire map.
On layer 1 is the background
Image Zooms In And Bounces. How Do I Fade Out?
Getting my feet wet and trying a routine event. Have an image zooming in and bouncing. That works. What I want to do is fade the image out after it has stopped bouncing. How do I fade it out? Here is what I have:
Attach Code
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
TransitionManager.start(wired,{type:Zoom,direction:0,duration:2,easing:Bounce.easeOut});
Resizing Bitmaps + Vectors When User Zooms
Hi,
I'm building a vector map and then placing icons on it. These icons are both bitmaps and vectors (depending on the icon). I want, especially for the bitmaps, to maintain the absolute pixel size regardless of the zoom level (ie. I want the 40x40px icon to always display with 40x40 screen pixels - not scale). I can do this without too much problem using movieClip._height etc, if I could detect the absolute pixel size of the main movie. What I want to know is if there is a way to find the absolute (screen) size in pixels of the main clip. I know the original document is 400x400 but no matter how the flash player resizes the SWF (eg. the user dragging the flash player window larger) these are the only dimensions that I seem to be able to pull from the actionscript - flash appears to handle the zoom transparently.
I hope this makes some kind of sense.
Thanks,
Ben.
P.S. I'm using MX if that helps.
Flash Vs Microsoft
I have been using flash for over two months now and really love it. I am in the intranet group here at work. I have requested obtaining flash for our use. Heres the question,
our company lives, breathes, and eats Microsoft, Does Microsoft make a comparable product? If they do then Im afraid I'll be directed that way. Everything I have read
informs me that Microsoft is going out of their way to make their browser Flash friendly. I just wanted to know if I should keep learning Flash or if by virtue of a competitive
Microsoft product, start coming up with ideas which will fit into the MIcrosoft box.

Flash -> PHP -> Microsoft Access
Hi,
I've been having an ongoing problem with getting a PHP code file to add, change and delete records in a table within a microsoft access database. Any help is welcomed: do you have any useful links or perhaps you know how to do this yourself. I just need the PHP code to do this, variables that will let the PHP file know which records will be changed will be recieved from flash - which will run the file using loadVariablesNum.
Thanks =)

That Microsoft Flash Issue
Hey folks, sorry if this has already been mentioned but do any of you guys know of, or have been troubled by a recent issue involving Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Flash Objects on a page?
It seems that they were being sued or told off somehow for the way it's Flash Objects are used by Explorer and the resulting effect was, it caused flash objects to have a box around them before you clicked?
We encountered this problem on our website beatsuite.com and quickly had our coders on the scene to sort it out.
Did anyone else encounter this strange, change in their flash objects in Internet Explorer?
Microsoft Keyboard And Flash

Microsoft Groove And Flash
Hi all, I'm working with a few multimedia developer around the country and need to get some kind of system set up where we can all collaborate together. Thought of using subversion, thought it might be overkill, so the idea of using Microsoft Groove came up.

Thanks for any input!
Microsoft Access With Flash And ASP
hi.
I am currently working on my final year project and I have encountered some problem.
I am working on creating a flash virtual PDA for multiple users, and I have no problem creating it for one user.
But I am not very sure on how to create my Access database such that it can allow mutiple users with their own personal address book and to-do-list.
I could be grateful if somebody could explain to me the concept of how it could be done as i am quite lost .
Flash And Microsoft Word

Microsoft Lawsuit And Flash
So I'm sure many programmers know about the recent lawsuit that MS lost with regard to ActiveX controls and a patent on the function they use (I'm not sure on all the details myself.)
My question is.... How should we go about preparing for the changes that will need to be made in order to load flash content on sites for visitors that use IE? Someone told me there is a JS code out there that is a work-around. Any suggestions?
Microsoft's WPF/E V. Flash... Should We Be Worried?
I ran across the following in today's Monkey Bites on Wired via my RSS feeds:
Microsoft Brings .NET to the Mac NOTE: gotoAndStop("Friday, 24 March 2006") ;)
At first the title seems like a post about .Net development tools coming for the mac... so us mac guys can write useless IE only apps... but a more comprehensive read reveals:
There's been talk among the hardcore .NET programmers that WPF/E could give Flash a serious run for its money as the dominant cross-platform rich media application technology.
[CS3] When Clicked, Image Zooms 400% And Pans Relative To Stage Width And Height
Hi!
I´ve made a movie clip which I called "mood" and when clicked it zooms 400%. What I want to do is to have it move relative to the _xmouse and _ymouse positions. Also because it is much bigger than the stage I would like it so that when I reach the corners of the Stage I would also reach the corners of the image.
All I have is a clip instance named mood and the actionscript on frame 1.
Here is the code:
Code:
// set X and Y initial scale for Target MC
mood._xscale = 100;
endScalex = 300;
initScalex = 100;
mood._yscale = 100;
endScaley = 300;
initScaley = 100;
// set Y position for Target MC
initx = 340;
inity = 195;
// Mood Button
mood.onRelease = function() {
scaleMood = true;
};
// Mood MC Behaviour
mood.onEnterFrame = function() {
// start Scaling Up
if (scaleMood == true) {
currentScalex = mood._xscale;
diffScalex = endScalex-currentScalex;
moveScalex = diffScalex/2;
mood._xscale = mood._xscale+moveScalex;
currentScaley = mood._yscale;
diffScaley = endScaley-currentScaley;
moveScaley = diffScaley/2;
mood._yscale = mood._yscale+moveScaley;
// Move Image with Mouse *** Here is the issue ***
mood._x = this._x + this._xmouse;
mood._y = this._y + this._ymouse;
// End issue : )
//change button behavior
mood.onRelease = function() {
scaleMood = false;
};
}
// start Scaling Down
if (scaleMood == false) {
//scale down X
currentScalex = mood._xscale;
diffScalex = currentScalex-initScalex;
moveScalex = diffScalex/2;
mood._xscale = mood._xscale-moveScalex;
//scale down Y
currentScaley = mood._yscale;
diffScaley = currentScaley-initScaley;
moveScaley = diffScaley/2;
mood._yscale = mood._yscale-moveScaley;
//position X
currentx = mood._x;
diffx = currentx-initx;
movex = diffx/2;
mood._x = mood._x-movex;
//position Y
currenty = mood._y;
diffy = currenty-inity;
movey = diffy/2;
mood._y = mood._y-movey;
//Change Button Action
mood.onRelease = function() {
scaleMood = true;
};
}
};
Thanks for helping me sort this out!
Flash MX And Microsoft Access Database
Hi: All
Is it possible using Flash MX to link to Microsoft Access table, so I can save all the data in Access table, and get it when my Flash MX application needs the data: such as wave files, pictures...
Since I have a team project, we will use Access as our database. I will do Flash MX game part, but we will share one database.
Thank you for your time.

Flash Animation In Microsoft Outlook
Hi,
This is all totally new to me - so please give me a break. I'm a graphic designer and my boss has suggested that I should learn how to create invitations in Flash to be distributed to clients via email, rather than via hard copy (my expertise lies here!). I've been having a look around on Flash Kit, trying to identify some mention of flash animations in Outlook/email. No luck. Is this a good idea, or am I (thanks to my boss) barking up the wrong tree? I don't have Flash installed on my PC yet, but my boss will get it for me if my research provides it necessary! Any suggestions or help forthcoming?
Regards, Megh.
PS. What's with this cow? v cute.

Flash Mx2004 & Microsoft Access
Hi Guys & Dolls
I urgently need to find out how to store and retrieve data from a Microsoft Access database from Flash MX2004. I will be eternally gratefull if you direct me to a good tutorial or ondicate to me how to do this.
I have designed an application in Flash and I want to store data in Access that keeps track of various things done in Flash.
Microsoft Equation Editor And Flash CS3
I'm working on a rather technical web site with lots of math instruction.
The "client's plan" was for the client to put the equations and text
for each instruction into a flash file. Then I would link things together,
attach some audio instructions and build the site.
Sounded good. I'm not terrible at math, but I don't even recognize some
of these symbols! I would hate to try and create the equations
correctly!
Many of the flash files I'm receiving have incorrect math symbols or
open rectangle symbols where math symbols should be. I know, I know, I
know..... that was the client's job. But, it is holding up the whole
project.
So, my question: Does anyone have a good method of getting Microsoft
Math Editor data into Flash? I tried it and it doesn't work well! Some
math symbols transfer just fine (fraction line) others (multiplication
dot or plus/minus sign) are totally wrong when pasted into flash.
I assume that Microsoft has access to some Font that Flash doesn't. I
do have MT Extra loaded. Unfortunately in Microsoft Equation Editor (or
in Word) the equation is treated as one object and "I" can't determine
what individual character's font families are.
Any one have an experience with this?
Thanks,
Tom
Embedding Flash In Microsoft Access
Has anyone had experience with embedding flash in microsoft Access? If so, what were the results. I'm embeding a movie in Access and it runs rather choppy. I was wondering if it was just access or me or if there is some sort of optimization I can do. Also, the movies plays fine during test and in a browser.
pre-thanks,
