Open Source, Copyright, And Use Of FK Content
I'm confused. Are we able to incorporate
content found in Flash Kit into our own commercial
and non-commercial projects? Or not? I've checked
the search function for "open source" and "copyright"
and I looked at the "About FK" links. The "Legal Notices"
links says all copyrights are respected and that content
cannot be used for commercial purposes; nor can it be altered, etc, etc. I dont think I have a clear ideal of
what open source really is.
In the audio section, it appears that we may use "freeware"
or elect to compy with the stipulations of "linkware" and
"shareware" Thats simple enough.
But what about graphics? And movies? Can we download them
,alter them, and use them for our own commercial purposes?
(there are no linkware, freeware, or shareware notices here, so I dont understand the legal status of content
in these areas)
Hope my question is clear and not too basic.
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

How Do I: Make A Button Open A Content Area?
I'm currently working on a new flash site and exploring some ideas I haven't tried yet. If you go to http://www.fightercreative.com you'll see the intro I've created which will either remain as a backdrop or just as it is throughout the operation of the site.
What I want to do with the site pages is have them appear as a semi-transparent backdrop with the contents within that area. Each time you click on a menu link it simply changes the contents with a transition or something. The main thing is I don't want the whole page to reload, just the contents, because I don't want to lose viewers' focus on the page while it would otherwise go white and reload the entire page - repeating the same graphics and animations, etc. Please see http://www.fightercreative.com/images/preview.jpg for idea of what I'm going for.
You'll notice a button called "open" in the middle of the content area. This is what will appear after the intro animation, and then the viewer can click on the button which will bring up the news or about content along with the menu.
So just to simplify what I want to do and don't know how:
Intro (done)
Button appear
[Click button]
Open content area w/ menu
Menu links change content
It's fairly simple and I've seen it done all the time, but I can't find any tutorials anywhere. If you can help I would greatly appreciate it!

4 Menu Mouse-Over Navigation That Scale Or Move Other Areaa To Open Content.
Currently building a navigation menu with 4 Area in a rectangle.
I have 4 area of the same scale at start.
I want that when I mouse-over one of those area that this one open up and that we can still see the others.
Basicly, if I mouse-over the first area the 3 others goes to the right.
If I mouse-over the second area the first one goes to the left and 3-4 to the right.
The area that I mouse-Over need to open content so the others have to scale down at the same time.
Anyone got exemples ?!
External Content Loader With Multiple Content Types (trouble Loading Graphics)
Hey all!
I am yet another new project. Our flash designer here isn't a big AS guy, and asked me to write a reusable class so that he can load a variety of content types using minimal amount of code on his part. It's also going to be the main component piece in a larger external content player once I'm done with the class itself, so I am making the loading functions into public methods of the loader object than can be called from a button, etc.
I have the code for the text and html parts working (although I can't get stage.width and stage.height to work in the class or from the frame).
The problem I have is that I can't get the graphics content to load (the swf/pic content). Could you please check my code and tell me what I'm missing? I'm sure it's something simple, like it always is.
thanks a million!

Help Needed In Clearing The Content Of The XML File Content Displayed In The Flash
I have developed a flash file with combo box which displayes all the XML files in the directory and after selecting a particular XML file the flash file reads the XML file and displayes the content of the XML file in flash in a fashion I have done. But, if I chose another XML file which is a blank XML file, still the flash file shows the previous file's content in the flash. How to clear that previous file's content?
If I chose someother XML file which is having some content then it shows correctly. But, if I chose some blank XML file, the flash file shows the previous content instead of showing it blank. pls help me how to clear the previous file contents?
Why Does Flash Re-load Content When Content Within Hidden/shown Area?
Hi all,
A purely academic question for someone about how Flash loads. I've written a simple Flash image scroller script, see: http://www.benjaminkeen.com/software/image_scroller/
On the page above, I separated the various content (installation instructions, demo, download file, etc) into separate pages, which get hidden/shown via JavaScript. Very straightforward.
My question is: why, when you go from the "Overview" to "A few examples" sections (both of which have a demonstration scroller), does the flash get "re-drawn" each time? I don't understand - I thought that it would simply get loaded the first time the browser calls it - not every time the content becomes display:blocked through javascript...?
I guess my follow up question is: can this be prevented?
Scroll Pane Content - Accessing Values Within Content Mc
hey all -
i'm having a bit of a problem. i need to access the .text value of various text fields within a mc that is presented in a scroll pane. i need to check the value against another value, and i'm having trouble grabbing it.
here's what's not working:
//within a for loop where "i" is incrementing
myContent = scroll_pane.getScrollContent();
myText = eval(myContent + ".text" + i +"_txt");
trace (myText.text);
when I run this, myText ends up equal to: _level0.scroll_pane.tmp_mc.text10_txt
where i=10 in this case (all the others increment no problem)
however, if I trace (myText.text) I get nothing (not undefined, just nothing). however, if i forcibly trace(_level0.scroll_pane.tmp_mc.text10_txt.text), it will show me the .text of this text field.
any ideas as to what is happening here?
thanks

Hiding/Masking Off-stage Content (external Content)
Hi,
I'm loading an image gallery into another movie. The image gallery itself uses XML to generate a row of thumbnails dynamically. In it's own player, this is fine, but when loaded into the larger movie, the row of thumbnails extends far beyond the container clip.
I've set the size of the container clip with an onLoad function, but I have no idea how to appropriately mask it so there is no spillover. Using a mask in the gallery clip doesn't work because the gallery is 100% scripted (unless I'm missing something terribly basic).
Is there a general method to use, aside from creating infinitely large opaque boundaries around the stage?
Thanks for any tips or insight!
AS3 Loader.content Access To Partially Loaded Content
I have a main swf that loads an external swf. The external swf is a fairly large video embeded on the timeline.
Ive got my Loader all setup correctly, handling PROGRESS, COMPLETE and INIT events all fine.
What id like to do (which i could do in AS2 very easily) is start the playing and accessing variables in the loaded swf before it finishes loading. If i do these things when the video swf is loaded completely, everything works fine.
Any attempt to access Loader.content or the container clip ive placed Loader.content in, BEFORE its finished loading (when it reachs, lets say, 20%), i get error:
#2099 The loading object is not sufficiently loaded to provide this information.
Anyone have any ideas on how it could be possible to start messing with loaded SWF content before all of its frames are loaded? Thanks in advance for lookin over my post!!

Open Pdf Files Causing IE Window To Open And Crash
On a macintosh OSX, when trying to open a pdf using:

Is there a way to open PDF documents using flash that doesn't open an IE browser window on mac OSX?
Dynamic Content Presented Over All Normal Content
I have a bunch of generated movie clips that I am creating using the duplicate movie clip function.
The problem I am having is the generated clips are covering up content. Are there any options....(I really don't feel like creating both layer a and b dynamically.)
this is how the movie is publishing:
-----layer A----- (generated content)
-----layer B----- (normal non-generated content)
-----layer C----- (normal non-generated content)
this is how i want the movie to publish:
-----layer A----- (normal non-generated content)
-----layer B----- (generated content)
-----layer C----- (normal non-generated content)
thanks for your help,

Error On Page: Level0.content.content
Hey guys, I hope this is the right place to post something like this.
I am definately a newbie at Flash, and I recently made a site for my gaming clan. ( http://www.aechq.com ) I have fixes all the bugs on the site, save for one that I can't find the problem that is making it occur. After the loadtext comes up for each individual page, an error will flash ( the same error that shows up when the page cannot be found ) and then the page will load normally. The error that flashes in the background is
Code:
level0.content.content
This is rather annoying, because if you aren't paying attention, you won't see it but once you do, you can't help but see it every time. Being the "noob" that I am, I don't have a clue how to fix this one...and I can't find what's wrong. If I could get some input, I'm sure it's just something small that I can't figure out.
Any help is appreciated, and off topic suggestions are fine too.
[CS3] How To Delay Html Content Until After Flash Content
I am working on a site where I want to have a few flash elements on the page ( i.e the navigation and the logo. ) to animate in before the the a block of text ( in a div) will be shown. The flash elements will stay on screen and be used after loading as the nav with interaction.
I don't want it to be a true flash intro before the site ( I already have one actually). I would rather it be a sequence that becomes visible as the page loads.
As I am typing I am wondering if this needs to be done in javascript or if it can be done via the embed parameters.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

[MX-MX04] Open The Save As / Open Windows
Hi,
I would like to click a button, which opens either the 'Save As' or 'Open' window (something like what this HTML does: <input type="file" size="40" name="file1" style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: verdana">). When you click open (in the 'Open' window) then the file path is put into an input textbox. And if you save (in the 'Save As' window), well, can you save things from an swf file? I've seen a save as jpg done, but nothing more... If you can save as anything, I'd like to know how.
I'd appreciate it if you gave code in either MX or MX2004 format, thanks :P.

Using An Open Button To Open A File
EDIT:
OK everything is good, now i just need it to save when you exit, so how do i do that?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Im trying to make a program that manages short cuts so if you have to many short cuts on your desktop you can just delete them and put there file extension in the text box, and then push open so the file opens.
I dont know what action script to put in the open1 button(its actually defined as a movie clip) and what variable to put in the text1 text box.
There are 7 text boxes and 7 open buttons.
text1-------open1
text2-------open1
and ect.
And if possible i want it where you can also put in website addresses and it goes to those for you to.
I also want it to save the text you put in so next time you open the program, the file extension you put in is still there
see the pick of what im talking about at http://www.boomspeed.com/runescape999/scm.jpg
Note that it does take a minute to load
--------------------------------------------------------------------
ALSO if there is a way to be able to make a browse button instead of having to copy and past the text that would be even better.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: If its possible i would rather this to be able to work not only in internet explorer, but also if you have it installed on your computer
I posted this in the Flash MX forum to, and im not sure if its allowed in two forums so if you could tell me if its allowed for later knowledge that would help.

Loading Content Within Content
Hello, I'm a Flash animator using CS3 who is trying to grasp the scary world of “Flash Web Design”. I'm creating a website with different sections with a tool bar on top that is always present, and content per “section” that is selectable in the tool bar.
I know the basic “gotoandplay” commands, but very little afterwards, and I've done preloader stuff before. What I'm trying to do is have it so that whenever a user clicks on something on the toolbar, it'll start loading (or preloading to play) the specific content they want and then show it without needing to “switch pages”.
Any ideas of how to work this?

Menu Can Open When Already Open
I've got a pop-out menu, but what's wrong is that I can still open the menu even when it's already open, making the animation play again if you click the menu button whilst it's open.
What's supposed to happen, is when the menu's open, you click anywhere on screen to close it again.
But this is where the problem lies.
The variable assignment of true and false should be disallowing you to be able to open the menu when it's open, however;
The menu button has the code:
Code:
on(release)
{
if (!_global.Mopened)
{
_root.MoviesAni.gotoAndPlay(2);
_global.Mopened = true;
}
}
and then the opened animation has this code to allow for closing.
Code:
onClipEvent(mouseDown){
if(this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse))
{
_root.MoviesAni2.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.MoviesAni.gotoAndStop(1);
_global.Mopened = false;
}
}
The problem is, if it detects that click over the menu button the two variable assignments conflict.
So once the menu's opened and i click the mouse down on the button, 'Mopened' gets assigned 'false' (closed) by that second segment of code and then once i release the mouse button the first segment of code thinks the menu's already closed so opens it again, so it ends up closing AND opening at the same time. With unattractive results should I say.
One way I thought I could fix it would be to swap the 'on(release)' and 'onClipEvent(mouseDown)' functions round. But because one's for a button and the other's for a MC it doesn't work.
My last resort is to make a close button you need to click to close the menu, but i'd prefer to be able to click anywhere on screen.
I hope someone has an idea of how I can get around this.
Thanx in advance,
-Luke

Dynamic Mask Over Dynamic Content Loses Content
I have come across a problem that so far I have no solutions for at all. I have a movieclip which has a dynamic jpeg loaded into it, then the movieclip is being masked. The issue is I need to have the mask that is on top of the movieclip change, but once I make any change to the mask I completely lose the dynamic jpeg that was loaded into the masked movieclip. Is there a way around this at all?
Not Scalable Content Inside Of A Scalable Content?
Hello Everyone,
I am having a hard time trying to figure out if this is even possible. I have a fla file which has a large vector image represented as a background in the application. I also have another movieclip that sits on top of it that contains a bunch of images.
My issue is as follows: is it possible to have an expandable background.. as it is vector in this case and will not degrade and have a movieclip inside that does not scale? I would like that movie clip to be at all times either 800 x 600 or 200 x 150 and "attached" to the bottom right corner.
Everything i have attempted thus far has not worked... it seems that the movieclips are not really aware of the fact that they are being scaled... only the stage does.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Making Content Fade Out Before New Content Fade In
I'm stuck... and see if you can follow what i'm trying to say cause i won't be able to describe well.
I'm working on a project now and I've got buttons that start a movie clip that basically in just a scaled box that has content over top of it.
How can i make it so that when a different button is clicked, the content currently being displayed is animated (in whatever fashion) going out before the new content comes in? for every peice of content every time.
Thanks,

How Do I Get Out Of A FX Into My Own Content?
I am running flash 5 and have downloaded an FX file zipped. I can open and go into Action script and add my own words but when I try to add a button or frame event to move to my own next editable framehead, the actionscript file just keeps running.. I am sorry I am so new to all of this but I can't seem to find the code to stop the effect and move on to my own lame content. Here is what I am trying to do, please help if you can, somebody taught you once or you were lucky enough to learn it on your own as I am trying to do. I want to take a FX and fly some words by, then I want to jump to my own pictures either by button or frame event but the effect just keeps running and I can't get out of it.The answer to this should be so simple, I want to download the fla. file change the words, and jump to my own frames, so I can continue with the little flash that I do know. Thanks in advance for any help or direction you can provide.

They must drawing most of the content in flash? does that make a significant difference than importing gifs or jpegs?
CD-ROM Content
Hello. I'm working on a strickly flash cd rom. I need to get all content that I have, including pdf forms, and have it in played in the player only that is 800 by 600.
I have some pdfs that need to be converted to flash. I will just recreate the pdf form completely in flash. My problem is that I do not know how to create a long form (5 pages) in flash and have it scrollable. I can create a simple form, but this form is large.
I also need this form to be able to be printed out after it is filled out.
If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I have been using flash MX for about a month.
Again my problem is making a large form and having the contents scrollable.
Also if anyone has any code to share it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Thank you,

Help With Content.xml
i have fla at the address below that does not control (or cannot control) the external .swfs. i have only fixed the first button, the other will not work, but you can see that if you click, it keeps playing so that when the other images are clicked they play over each other.
please view the content.xml file and let me know how this might be fixed so that upon opening another image the previous unloads. i cannot figure this out for two months now.
the fla is at http://www.disfasia.net/family.fla.sit
