Red Block Blocking My Swf
Hi Everyone, I have a flash file and basically they are slides of different things. For some reason, my first slide shows up with a red block over it. I have tried re-saving the png in photoshop, re-importing it into my library and still nothing.
So, if I go into my library, and double click the imported png I want to use, I see that the compression is set to JPEG(Photo) instead of the lossless option. So if I try the Lossless option, it works fine in IE but of course the swf takes on an enormus filesize. If I have the first option, it just shows a red block. what is wrong with my swf!??
I have also tried this with different formats and it still does this.
Does flash have a limit on width and height before it just stops showing the photo file?
Example (please use IE because of course in firefox it works):

Mc Blocking Mc Below...
I use this code to drag a window in the flash:
Code:
onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse)) {
startDrag(_parent,false,1,1,400,400);
}
}
The problem is if the window is over something, like a scrollbar, it's draging ANS scrolling at the same time (if the mouse is pressed over the windows titelbar + the scrollbar, you understand..). If I would use a button as a titlebar it wouldn't be a problem but I just don't wanna.
Think there is a solution? If (window is over) things won't work since it's hundreds of windows and scrollbars. And windows with scrollbars in them..

Blocking Buttons?
Hi!
I have an SWF loaded into Level 1, completely (visually) covering the Level 0 movie... but level 0 has buttons on it that are still active when I pass over them in the Level 1 movie...
Can I somehow make the buttons in level 0... invisible so they can't be hit while Level 1 is up?
Hope that makes sense...
THANKS!

Stopping Pop-up Blocking
Has anyone got any javascript that will get around a firewall stopping you launching your Flash site in a new window? Can't seem to find any that will do the job.
When used within Flash to launch a new window then it works fine but if in the HTML then it is blocked by the firewall, in my case Zone Alarm Pro.
I have already tried these scripts:
a href="javascript:window.open('flash26.html',new Date().getTime(),'width=600,height=450'); void(0);"
AS WELL AS:
function winopen(){
var targeturl="flash26.html"
newwin=window.open("","","scrollbars")
if (document.all){
newwin.moveTo(0,0)
newwin.resizeTo(screen.width,screen.height)
}
newwin.location=targeturl
}
a href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="winopen();"
Thanks for any help.

Firefox Pop-ups Blocking From SWF
I have an SWF that pops a new browser window when the user clicks a button within.
However, it always triggers Firefox's auto pop blocker.
Any way around this?
I've noticed slide.com's swfs use real HTML buttons underneath, but they do the <a href="wwww" target="_blank">
It's the same concept, but they get past the pop-up blocking. How can I do this within the SWF though without having to make external HTML?

Blocking Buttons
In a scene I have a number of buttons. To start with I want them to be blocked. I've used:
for (i=1; i<20; i++) {
_root["button"+i].enabled = false;}
To another button I've attached this script to make them active again:
on (release) {
for (i=1; i<20; i++) {
_root["button"+i].enabled = true;}
}
It all worked fine until I added a new button, "button10".
Is there a problem beacuse "10" consists of two figures or is there another problem? Maybe there is an easier way to do this, locking and unlocking buttons in a scene?
/Thanks!

I was wondering how you disable half of a button (For when half of it is hidden) I have been doing this cheap fix but want to know the proper way... Basically what I have been doing is putting a selectable dynamic textbox in front of the blocked button. So the cursor changes to a "I"
Is there a better way?? Even can I change the default "I" to an arrow??

Somthing Blocking Flash?
Hi everyone,
has someone ever had the Problem that his Flash film (with link) didnt work cuz of some javascript elements in the same php file?
I made a little film with a link in it ... the link triggers a javascript for a popup with "geturl bla bla" it worked fine in the beginning ... then the site became more complex *grrr* ... and now it doesnt work any more and i just cant see the fu..ing problem ... sorry ... its really makin me mad ... under the film is a normal textlink with the same linktarget that works fine.
The only script in the film is:
on (press) {
getURL ("javascript: popUpSMS('http://bla bla bla')");
}
Im not going to post the php source cuz its to big and full of includes ... i dont think that would help anyone.
If someone wants to have a look at the film, here is the link to the site www.noisy.de ... the flashfile im talking about is on the right side with a big SMS written on it.
If anyone had the same problem I would be glad if she or she could give me a hint

Blocking Key Events In Case Of CBT
Hi,
I have a CBT made and want the entire navigation to be possible by mouse as well as by keyboard.
For navigations I have assigned a key on the key board. This I have done by using "if(key.isDown())" ok
Now when I press M the Menu bar slides in and is available, but while the menu is page is loaded if by mistake I press any other key then even that functionality takes place like for example when the menu page is loaded and I press the RIGHT arrow key then the next slide is shown, if I press the s key the sound slider pops up. if I press the G key then the glossary page gets loaded. and so on.
Is there any method by which I can deactivate these key as I can do in case of buttons.

XP SP2 Blocking Local ActiveX

How can I stop this? Firefox isn't an option unfortunately. And I've tried changing the security settings in IE but to no joy. Searched for solutions too, but can't find anything decent. What can I do?

IE Blocking Flash (Active X)
A new security release by our friends at MicroSoft has thrown a wrench into Flash development. The latest "security patch" for Windows/IE now disables the <embed> and <object> tags, forcing users to "Click to Activate" the Flash content. There is a JavaScript workaround located here: Active X Workaround.
Thought you might be interested.

IE Blocking Flash Content
Hi All,
There may already be some help on the forums for this, but I thought I'd add my version of the solution here as I found it quite easy.
The problem:
The latest "security patch" for Windows/IE now disables the <embed> and <object> tags, forcing users to "Click to Activate" the Flash content.
The solution:
Create a file called "foo.js". Add the following code to it:
Code:
function RunFoo()
{
document.write('<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="245" height="400" id="navigation" align="middle">');
document.write('<param name="movie" value="navigation.swf" />');
document.write('</object>');
}
Obviously replace the entire "<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e......>" with the object tag that you would normally use. Just happens that my movie wants these width and height values etc.
Next, change the "navigation.swf" bit to what ever your movie is called.
Save the file.
Now you need to add some code to your HTML page that the flash movie is going into.
Add the following line into the <HEAD> section of your HTML:
Code:
<script src="foo.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Now replace all the <object> stuff you had originally, in my case this:
Code:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="245" height="400" id="navigationcontact" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="navigation.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="navigationcontact.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="245" height="400" name="navigation" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
With this:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">RunFoo();</script>
And that's it! Just upload the .js file and your new HTML file and you should be good.
All the best,
O.

Blocking OnPress, OnRelease Etc
Hi there
I have a game for which i would like to produce a demo.
The game involves lots of draggable items which i will drag about by code in the demo.
I need to be able to block the user clicking or dragging anything in the game whilst the demo is playing. The game is rather complex (about 8000 lines of code) so i would rather not have to deactivate all my classes individually.
I could put one big transparent movie over the top with empty events on it to block stuff - but this would mean that the user get a 'mouse over' cursor all the time.
Can anyone think of a way to block interaction with movie clips in a similar way. I basically need a blanket technique for stopping all user interaction in a movie.
Thank you

Blocking Keyboard Keys
In the flash movie I have assigned or blocked all the keys on the keyboard except for; Tab, Command Q, Command H (hide), F9, F10, F11, and F12
I have created a game in Flash to be played installed on a computer. It is for kids so I don't want the focus to move away from the movie unless a three key combination is pushed, or QUIT is clicked in the game. Any ideas. I can have a wrapper made in a C++ to accomplish this, but would rather keep the game all actionscript.
Do you have any suggestions or help?

Allowing & Blocking OnRelease
I'm working on a game, but I seem to have run into an issue.
I would rather not post the fla, and I think it might be too large anyways, so if you PM me, or email me (sunlis8930@hotmail.com) with your email, and I will send you the fla.
The problem is, once red has gone, it's blue's turn, but red is still clickable.
Also, the moveline won't move to the selected player, for whoever goes second.
I think the problem is, the walk button doesn't work for some reason, since the followLine variable doesnt change onRelease the second time.
See the example here
I don't think I explained this very well, so please, feel free to ask for clarification.

PNG Transparency Blocking Lower MCs?
So basically - Each lever is a PNG animation cycle that consists of full bleed frames that are the lever + transparency. All 10 levers have the same base class attached, and they all have the same timeline structure (hit area with mouse click handler on first frame only).
Why does the top most lever block the rest? If I move another lever above it, that lever will be the only one to respond to the mouse. I was under the impression that using a hit area MC would solve the stacking and transparency woes and allow for layered levers.
BTW ignore the pause before the panel slides out - The background image gets loaded the first time you trigger the panel.
Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
package com.morrison.project {
//import classes
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
//
//Other Main Timeline imports go here! Don't forget!
public class ProjectLever extends MovieClip {
//---------------------------------VARS
//numeric identifier
public var nID:Number = 0;
//is lever playing anim
private var bPlaying:Boolean = false;
//is lever on
public var bEnabled:Boolean = false;
//timer for hit area handler
private var tTimer:Timer;
//
public function ProjectLever() {
//enable as button
this.leverHit_mc.buttonMode = true;
//hit area for up state
this.leverHit_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseClickHandler);
//timer for hit area handler
this.tTimer = new Timer(100, 1);
this.tTimer.addEventListener('timer', timerHandler);
}
//set identity of lever
public function setID(n:Number):void {
this.nID = n;
trace('lever setID - '+this.nID);
}
//
//get identity of lever
public function getID():Number {
return this.nID;
trace('lever getID - '+this.nID);
}
//return lever to up state
public function goToUp():void {
this.gotoAndPlay('pullUp');
//start checking to see if back up
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, this.checkIfUp);
}
//
//method to check if lever is down
private function checkIfDown(e:Event):void {
trace('current label = '+this.currentLabel);
if (this.currentLabel == 'down') {
trace('lever is down');
//remove check
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, this.checkIfDown);

if (this.currentLabel == 'up') {
trace('lever is up');
//remove check
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, this.checkIfUp);
//add mouse handler back to hit area using timer delay
//this.leverHit_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
tTimer.start();
}
}
//
//mouse click handler
private function mouseClickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {
//only allow if enabled
if (this.bEnabled) {

//if not currently playing animation
if (this.currentLabel == 'up') {

}
}

trace('timer');
//hit area for up state
this.leverHit_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseClickHandler);
//enable as button
this.leverHit_mc.buttonMode = true;

Blocking A:hover Tags
I've got some text "menus" made up of css styled html enabled text fields. They work fine. Sometimes there is a semi transparent MovieClip that floats above them that has some onRollOver, onRelease, etc. events defined.
I've noticed that the semi-transparent button stops the propagation of most mouse events to anything below it. But the a:hover and a:active states of the text fields still reacts to the mouse being over/clicking the text. The actual link doesn't work or call the asfunction.
So does anybody know an easy way to block that from happening?

How To Prevent Blocking Of Popups
Since a recent Firefox update I've noticed that the included popup blocker is now doing its job a little too well. It now blocks all popups that are launched from my SWF. Of course you can still get to the new window by selecting "allow for this website", but this is not very user-friendly.
I think that Firefox blocks all popups unless it thinks that they are a direct result of a mouse click. When you make an event handler with on (release) { } and launch the new window from there, it will not be blocked. However, when you dynamically create that event handler, by declaring <myMovieClip>.onRelease=function() { } somewhere midway, it will be blocked. I've tried to avoid this by calling a JavaScript function which in turn opens the popup, which also doesn't give the intended result.
Obviously the popup blocker is just doing its job, but in this case I just want to have some way to create a new window from a MovieClip, and have it not blocked.

Blocking On Asynchronous Calls
Hi,
I am loading XML data and want to stop my function returning until it has loaded. I came up with this:
ActionScript Code:
function Initialise():Boolean
{
var xmlVal:XML = new XML();
xmlVal.load("http://blah");
var bLoadedOK:Boolean = false;
var bFinished:Boolean = false;
xmlVal.onLoad = function (bSuccess)
{
bFinished = true;
bLoadedOK = bSuccess
}
while (!bFinished); //block until loaded
return bLoadedOK;
}
However, this doesn't work, because onLoad never gets called. It appears that xml.load() isn't truely asynchronous at all, and doesn't get called while my script is sitting in the loop.
So my question is, is there any way to do this? Or am I going to have to ugly global functions and variables everywhere to denote state changes?

Movie Blocking The Stage...
I'm building my online resume, and the way I've built it, when you mouse over items in it text appears to the right telling you more about that skill, but when you mouse over my past JOB experience, another movie appears in the middle of the screen telling you far more about my job duties and what I did there.
Problem is, this movie (jobDesc) is BLOCKING the other movies (even when it's not visible) so you can't mouse over them, an I'm not entirely sure what to do about it.
Is it possible (and this would be a totally new technique for me) to actually place and remove the jobDesc movie onRollOver and onRollOut so it's not blocking the stage when it's not in use?

Are Scrolling Script Blocking The Actions?
Hi,
thanx for reading this!
Within a movieclip I have buttons that is supppose to react on rollOver or on onRelease. I am using frame labels like this:
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop("labelName");
}
It still doesn+t work. Is it because the clip is involved in a srolling script on the main timeline? And in that case, how should I solve the problem?
I should add that it doesn+t matter wether the target frame is on the main timeline or at another level.

ScrollPane : Drag Blocking Events
Hello, I have finally managed to get my dynamic movie to build itself inside a scrollPane, and I can drag it around and scroll as I wanted...however, there are movieclips pretending to be buttons inside spContentHolder that now won't catch mouseevents with the scrollPane drag on. Years ago when I used to develop with ToolBook there was a "forward" function that allowed events to pass up the hieratchy, does anyone know if there is a Flash equivalent or even a different way to achieve this,
