Flash Mx 2004 Screw Up
Okay, I was doing everything normal, and publishing my movie to see it. Then suddenly, it takes ten times longer to load then stops and says there's inadequate memory. I didn't do anything... except delete a publish profile i was previously using. I'm very confused.

Emulate A Screw Driver + Screw
For a simple game I am making, I was wondering if any of you can help me make some sort of a screw emulation.
There's a base screw-head and once the screwdriver is at hand, while pressing the left mouse button, the user must make circular motions around the screw head a couple times to screw open the screw. Is this possible?
I have tried several small pseudo codes, but to no avail.
I tried using a pseudo drag and drop combined with the _rotation methods, but my actual code fails.
I tried following this code:
Detect left mouse click.
If (clicked near the screw) ->
Get the original mouse locations _xmouse & _ymouse
drag the invisible MC
Can someone lead me?
thanks

Flash Screw Up Image
Hi,

As soon as I run the project (ctrl-Enter) the image is clipped or cropped.
I have 3 columns of movie clips that contains 1 image each. The first 2 columns are ok but the third one all the image are changed.
If I move my third column, the image is changing depending on the position.
Please Help !!!!

Major Flash Screw-up
I am a total Flash newbie, and I have made a big mess ... I was trying to modify a Flash file, but was hitting a brick wall, so I tried to restore the old .swf file to the web site I was working on -- but now the old file doesn't work!
I am just getting a blank screen, whether I view it in the browser or just open it with Flash on my local machine. All I did was take the old file and copy it somewhere, then I copied the copy back to the original location to restore it. (Same filename and everything.) But it won't work ... help ?!

Will The Eolas Lawsuit Screw With Flash Ads?
I just thought about this...and I could be way off...but if your site has no elements of flash but serves flash advertisements...will your site get the little pop up? I assume it will since it's flash...and it's on your site...and can the javascript work-around work for those ads?

LoadMovie Screw Up
Using FLASH 5
Here's what's happenning
I made 2 flash movies: One of them is a master movie the other one loads on a buttonclick into a mastermovie.
I'm loading the 2nd movie into a target not onto a level since I want some of the attributes of the mastermovie to be displayed after the 2nd movie is loaded. Understandably I made a small empty clip put it on the stage and gave its instance a name say... "loadedmovie"
After that I assigned the appropriate button the following action.
on (release) {
loadMovie ("hr_cny.swf", "loadedmovie");
}
And what happens is the movie that's loading starts playing but for some reason gets stuck on a "loading..." message and doesn't even display a percentage and never loads. But outside the master movie it works just fine and dandy! However I tried placing it on _level1 and then it works fine, like it's supposed to. But then I don't see some of the elements of my master movie.
If you know the answer or happen to see what exactly I'm screwing up here let me know. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

Unidentified Screw-up?
I had just finished a two hour project, and decided to organize the code a little better for future editing. Usually I take longer with things, so I save lots and lots of backups. However, this time I didn't. I changed some things around in this code here:
Code:
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
Sections = [[[70, 54]]];
attachMovie("clip", 0);
a = Math.atan2(_xmouse-clip._x, _ymouse-clip._y);
clip._x += Math.sin(a);
clip._y += Math.cos(a);
}
then I hit Ctrl+S
Now the shapes that are supposed to appear no longer do! I can't see anything wrong with this, and I can't get my old file back >_<! Can anyone out there help me?
Edit: Words were not needed

Dynamic Text Screw Up
ok
I'm creating an interactive flash file that simply adds up number entered by a user.
1) I use an input field (select the number option thing).
2) Then I use two dynamic fields...
a) one shows the number just entered by the user (that works fine) and
b) the second to show the sum of the numbers added so far ....PROBLEM
All it does is append the new number to a string, this mean that flash sees this as text and not number...thus I can't add. Plus when I create a variable to do the addition, all it does is append the text too!!!
Please help

Why Does My Preloader Screw W/ My Movie?
I just got done with a simple flash site & put in a typical preloader that converts the byteLoaded/frames ratio to a percentage of 100.
But alas, it messes up everyhting, the clips that contain onClipEvent(enterFrame) for use in animation don't work (strangely enough, all onClipEvent(load) & onClipEvent(data) in the clips do work), & the content clip - which slides from one end to another stays totally frozen.
Should I try loading things by level? I'm really confused.
If anyone's got any input or (dare I say) a different type of preloader lying round their hardrive, could you hit me back?

Pixle Font Screw-up
Alrighty, I am using pixel fonts in my new Flash site. For the most part I am having no troubles, but in 1 particular area I cannot get the results I need.
I have a grapic with a pixel font in it, I lined it up perfectly to the pixel, then I load these graphics into a larger graphic (MovieClip), I lined them all up to the pixel inside the MovieClip, then I have this MovieClip load into a ScrollPane. Here's the problem, when I publish the site for viewing the font is blurry. I have no idea what I could be missing here.

Creative Ways To Screw Up Text Boxes
Has anyone ever seen
a programmatically
generated text box that
has the correct width most
of the way down but then
'loses' the right margin and keeps going right off of the stage? It looks the way I made this post. What is going wrong? It is HTML read in from XML files and the movie is all AS 1 with no author-time content, if that helps.

Flash MX 2004/2004 Pro - Bring Back The Old Undo - Petition To Macromedia
Many of you will know that the removal of the movie clip specific undo is causing us enless hassles and this isn't one of those features that we just get used to, this is a serious workflow hindrance.
We have been discussing in this in more detail here if you want to read more first http://webforums.macromedia.com/flas...hreadid=709486
I don't want this thread to become another discussion about it as it has already been done, but I do want to get a petition together of emails or names which we can send to macromedia or maybe they will take notice here, so If you feel the same way that I do then reply here.

Flash MX 2004, Flash MX 2004 Pro Or MX Studio
Hi,
I am still on the 30 days trial with Flash MX 2004 and I wonder what would be the best choice for me when I go on buying it. Should I buy Flash MX 2004, Flash MX 2004 Pro or MX Studio. I want to create animations and games for my web site. I wonder if the other softwares of the MX Studio would really be useful. I already own Photoshop so I guess Firework would be of no use. Is there other softwares that I may need to create animations and games?
Thanks,
Richard

Flash MX 2004 Vs. Flash MX 2004 Professional
Hello all,
I have a question. I've been using Flash MX 2004 Professional at work for a couple of Flash movies that I put on the Optim Electronics website. Now, since I put up a Flash examples page that has examples of various Flash techniques, I would like to show my supervisor what Flash is capable of doing. However, you can only download the Flash MX and MX 2004 versions of the Flash source files at the Flash Downloads web page. Will Flash MX 2004 have problems opening the Flash MX 2004 file?
Thanks in advance,

Flash MX 2004 Professional > Flash MX 2004?
I'm looking to buy one of Macromedia's products within the next few days. Problem is, I'm not sure which to buy. This question is aimed at Disjuku (remember me? ) in particular, since Disjuku visited a site mentioned in my previous post. (The site is http://www.square-enix-usa.com/seui/index.htm - you'd have to register (don't worry, it's free) to see what I'm talking about. Go to "ONLINE GUIDES" then "FINAL FANTASY X".) OK, so what is Macromedia's best product to create this site that was obviously created using Flash? Flash MX 2004 seems obvious, but I don't know if Flash MX 2004 Professional is worth the extra money. (By the way, Studio MX 2004 is a little (well, waaay) out of my price range). Anybody have helpful solutions? Thanks.

Select Doesn't Select. What Did I Screw Up?
I'm learning Flash from a book called "Essentials For Design:
Macromedia Flash 8"
THE SHORT STORY
Using the select tool, when I double-click an object to select it, it
doesn't. What happens is that it produces a light-blue square outline
surrounding the edge of the object and then "expands" or "explodes"
the outline to the limits of the stage. The object is not selected
yet.
If I double-click again, it selects the object but it doesn't behave
as it should.
What is this blue outline and why isn't it selecting the object like
it's supposed to...on the first double-click?
THE LONG STORY
In the intro to objects it has you draw a square and a circle. You
double-click the circle and move it onto part of the square.
Deselect, then select the circle again. Move it off the square and it
takes the intersection away from the square. Fine and dandy.
I did a few more exercises, none of which seemed to modify any
preferences, and now when I try the same operation on the circle /
square, it doesn't work.
What's different is when I double-click to select an object, rather
than selecting it, it draws this light-blue line that bounds the outer
dimension of the object and "expands" this square outline outward.
If I double-click AGAIN it selects the object but doing the same
procedure of moving it has no effect on the shape of the square. The
circle doesn't take a chunk out of the square.
I hope this makes sense.
Help! How can I get FLASH working like I think it's supposed to?
thanks

Can MX 2004 Pro Files Be Opened And Modified In MX 2004?
Hi,
I've done alot of work with Flash MX 2004 Pro in a class I took. I'm looking into buying the Flash program for my own personal use. I checked out the school store and found that I could buy Flash MX 2004 there at a discount price.
My question is, will Flash MX 2004 allow me to open the .fla files I finished in my class, even though I used Flash MX 2004 Pro to make them? If not, I'll have a lot more saving to do...
Thanks for any feedback.

Unable To Open Flash 2008 File In Flash MX 2004
I was working on a file in Flash 2008 and saved it as a regular .fla. I sent the file to myself via email and downloaded it on a different PC to continue working on it. The other PC has Flash MX 2004 installed. When I try to open the file with MX however, I just get:
"Error. Unexpected file format."
Both versions of the application save files as .fla, so this format should be valid... is there any way to open this file?

Action Scripting In Flash 8 Using A Flash Mx 2004 Tutorial
I did lesson 5 out of the tutorial book, Macromedia Flash MX 2004 Action Script : Training from the Source, developing the TV remote work with functions. (note I am using Flash 8 not Flash MX2004). My code is written line for line exactly the way the book instructs, yet when I test the script it does not work.
I opened the completed exercise, television3.fla,cut and pasted the action script in frame one f my version and, viola, it works.
Now one would think that it was human error, however I cut and pasted both versions of the script into notepad, printed both versions and compared the two version on a light box. They are line to line duplications.
So, why does my typed in version NOT work???
I'm totally baffled. Does anyone else have a clue?

Flash Player 9 On Mac Searching For Debugger On Flash MX 2004 Swf
Hey guys-
I need some help and cannot figure it out. I have Flash MX 2004, made my swf file, and it plays just fine on Flash Player 7 (Safari, Firefox, IE etc.) on PC and MAC. Now, 2 people told me that on MAC with Flash 9 the browser (Safari or Firefox) comes up with a pop-up window stating "please locate debugger" and gives then a choice between local or remote computer. And then the file is not being displayed.
Now-how can I fix this? And why can Flash Player 9 on MAC not play it?
Please, help, I need to get this done...and I am in a big jam. I tried even to open up with Flash CS 3 and it cannot open the file!

Extension Working In Flash MX Cannot Work In Flash MX 2004
Hello,
I bought a flash extension last year which was working fine in flash MX. For your information, the flash extension was used to produce some flying effect.
However the flash extension cannot work in Flash MX 2004. The problem should be that the extension used ActionScripts 1.0 to produce the effect and Flash MX 2004 is using ActionScripts 2.0
Are there any softwares that can convert AS 1.0 to AS 2.0? If yes. Is it possible that, I used flash MX to produce a FLA file then use the software to convert AS 1.0 to AS 2.0. Or there are some other better ways to do that....
Thanks and best regards
Alex
