Posted by Noosa at 10/4/2007 11:34:10 PM
Hi,
just an elementary question or 2 about using Flash for a "powerpoint" type
of presentation.
I've been asked by a client to create a slideshow, using hi-rez photos
accompanied by background music, possibly quotes superimposed over top.
For me, it's either buy & learn Powerpoint, or use/u... more >>
Keeping original image compression
Posted by Rusherific at 10/4/2007 11:09:36 PM
I'm doing an online ad and for the first time really have to worry about file
size (their limit is 35k!), so I spent a while in Photoshop saving the images
I'm using to very small sizes without hurting the images noticably (one jpeg,
one gif), such that they don't even add up to 10k. But when ... more >>
First frame too large
Posted by CowAttack at 10/4/2007 7:43:18 PM
I'm creating a preloader to place in front of my movie files, but the first
frame of the movie is so large that the preloader doesn't appear until the
movie is 50% loaded. I have an flv playback component, which is the reason the

Library source file path is wrong
Posted by test1man at 10/4/2007 6:46:41 PM
I have created a fla to hold all the graphic elements of a project. When I add
one of these elements to a different fla I set it to update on publish so if I
make a change to the original it applies automatically. The problem is when I
tell it to update, it can't find the original. If I look a... more >>

Transform Panel Input Ignored
Posted by k96822 at 10/4/2007 6:04:09 PM
When I create a tween, select an object; anything that has a width and a height
or a rotation, I cannot transform it using the "Transform" panel. I enter the
new transformation (say, from 100% to 80%) into the text field, change focus

Unloading multiple movies at once
Posted by shambae at 10/4/2007 5:59:37 PM
I'm trying to remove multiple dynamically created movies at one time. I'd like
all of these clips to unload when entering a new frame in the timeline, but the
only way i know how to do this is to list them all individually. Is there a way
to do this at once like a wildcard or something?

I've exported a Quicktime movie to Flash Video and imported it into Flash 8.
When I test the resulting Flash movie, the video plays up to a certain point
and then stops, before the end of the video. If I move the playhead past that
point, the movie starts playing again. I have set no cue point... more >>

I'm currently working on a new project at university and my idea involves using
iSight to allow the user to control elements within flash. I was hoping anyone

Thanks in advance.
