• Can I disable hit testing in Flash button?

  I recently created a Flash game which is the extreme slowing down on the greatest levels. Use Adobe Scout with a version of the game that has Advanced telemetry activated, I learned that, on these levels, what we call 'hit test button' is engulf a huge piece of my game processor cycles - we're talking about 25 to 33 percent or more.

  A few searches on Google directed me to this thread over 2 years, in which Mark Shepard noted that the hit test button is a process legacy meant to support the old class SimpleButton. He said that this led to the slowdown in scenes with many objects from the display list, and there is no way to avoid it otherwise than to reduce the number of objects in the display list.

  Other users Chorus to say that the hit test button moved not when they switched to using touch rather than the events of mouse events. However, my game is for PC, and as such, I can't use the touch events rather than mouse events.

  So my question is, basically: in 2 years because this problem has been reported, did you do something to allow programmers to turn off Flash button hit-testing? (Like, say, allowing us to set a flag to supportSimpleButtons to false to disable the button hit testing process?)

  It answers the question, but it was not sufficiently clear.

  Yes, disable mouse interactivity will stop the hit test.  to stop the interactivitee use:

  whateverobject.mouseEnabled = false;

  If this object is also a container of displayobject, also use

  whateverobject.mouseChildren = false;

  You will need to place the buttons sitting on the animation if you plan to have the animation exceeds the surface it is native.

• loading html document stored on the local hard drive using the 'flash' button

  Hello! I use adobe cs 5.5 flash (action script 3), and I need to load an html document into my hard drive using the 'flash' button I tried navigateToURL (thanks kglad). Here is the code:

  quizstart_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, arithmeticlesson);

  function arithmeticlesson(event:MouseEvent):void

  {

  navigateToURL (new URLRequest("file:///C:/quiz/truequiz.html)", "_blank");

  }

  But I want to play my flash file to the other computer. In order to access the truequiz.html, I'll make a folder named quiz to C:\.

  How can I load this html file to other computers without creating a folder to C:\? Sorry for the dumb questions. I'm new coding. Thanks in advance!

  Is there another html file that includes the swf file?  If so, it is in a different folder, then you need to adjust the path so that the swf file target html file as if it were in the same folder as the html page that incorporates.

  Are other than that, you getting any kind of error message from security to try to link to the page in this way?

  I really enjoyed my visit here.  We went in February, the coldest time of the year, and when I got my mother-in-law apologized for the cold, it was then that I was just there dripping with sweat.  Where I am now (upper NY) it is-10 degrees...  If here and there, I'd be a temperature controlled indoor environment.

• flash button to interact with the object to 3Dpdf

  Hello

  Here is my project, I built a menu with different buttons. SWF in my 3D window to interact with my 3D object.

  With this button, I want to play an animation, a changerendermode, play a video on a 3D etc. face and many other functions that are in a file. JS

  For more information, I begin in actionscript.

  I read on the internet that we must use the 'ExternalInterface.call("saveglobalscore",score) '.

  Here's what I put in my flash button

  function anim (pEvt: Event): void

  {

  ExternalInterface.call("saveglobalscore",score) ("changeRenderModeillustration");

  }

  btn_anim.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, anim);

  But nothing happens in my 3D window while my function does not appear in my. JS

  I don't understand what the problem is!

  Thank you very much for your help!

  The SWF file is send commands to the document, not to the JavaScript file that you attached to the 3D annotation. See my previous answer on the creation of a function at the level of the document.

  I don't have an example of the FlashEventHandler system that I can share this moment, we will soon have a tutorial about it, but we are working on some things behind the scenes first.

  I made a tutorial in two parts in the Acrobat 9 days which covers how Flash can be used in the 3D scenes as a material and the same general concepts on ACE<>JS communication discuss in part 2 applies when the SWF file is a foreground sprite (the 3D API has not changed in the X version):

• Are there tags for the Flash buttons so there navagation for iPad

  Maybe I not looking in the right places, but anyone know of a label or an alt line which can offer the iPad visitors the possibility to navagate a website that uses Flash buttons?  There must be something that can appear instead a button Flash when flash challenged iPads come visit but is not visible if the flash buttons are visible to others. The goal is to find a change in the code rather than review site, by replacing all the buttons, or simply ignore this market growning.

  Any suggestions?

  Perhaps the simplest solution is the one that has been available for years... even this last boom iProduct... before and which is to provide replacement for any Flash content HTML content... made via swfobject, a small Flash detection .js. If Flash is detected... it displays the Flash, otherwise, it displays the HTML content.

  If you don't want to bother making up the overthrow HTML or CSS buttons, open your Flash buttons file .fla and 'Export' (.jgp) image of the Flash buttons... it will be the same size as the .swf... so fits very well. Then place this image in exactly the same

  as the .swf and hotmap nav links directly on the different buttons.

  Who stand up and working first, then if you still want to use Flash, use swbobject to place the .swf in the same

  . Viewers with Flash will see the Flash keys, those without will see the hotmapped picture... will work just great.

  for example:

  http://www.ksowetsuits.com/

  View source... in addition to the navigation code, there is a huge amount of HTML text on the page for SEO purposes... but if you have Flash, what you see is just a very simple .swf... who happens be a unique and simple image.

  More info on swfobject, here:

• How can I change the function of a flash button?

  Hello

  You are not sure if this should go in the Flash forum or Captivate forum, but nobody knows how, where to find ActionScript 3 orders for Captivate?

  I downloaded a pre-made button Flash (source file) for Adobe Captivate, which was originally made to make a video go to the next slide when you press. He does it very well, but I wanted to know how use the ActionScript in Flash Professional CS5 to have the button JUMP to a specific slide in Captivate, rather than just go to the NEXT slide. I know that usually how the code works, but have never really used and do not know the specific command to get there. Currently, the relevant part of the code of the 'Flash' button reads:

  function clicked(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  var myRoot:MovieClip = MovieClip (root);

  var mainmov:MovieClip = MovieClip (myRoot.parent.root);

  mainmov.rdcmndNextSlide = 1;

  I think I should just change the last line to something else and it should work, but I need the command. Can someone tell me what needs to be changed in the code above to get there?

  The full code is below. Thank you.

  
  

  Here is an answer for everyone out there trying to do the same thing.

  To change the function, simply change "rdcmndNextSlide = 1" to another command with its variable. Commands and variables can be found here:

  getURL is a function, not a property or a method.  I can't say how the two buttons fit in the plan, but here is my best guess in a solution.  Instead of

  moreInfo.getURL = t.info;
  buyNow.getURL = t.link;

  Use:

  moreInfo.onRelease = function() {}

  getURL (t.info, "_blank");

  }

  buyNow.onRelease = function() {}

  getURL (t.link, "_blank");

  }

• Browser 'Back' arrows do not work with the Flash buttons.

  Can't seem to get around this problem...

  I did several keys flash for use in my navigation bars. They work fine, but the 'return' arrows on the browser are still grayed out. It does not matter what kind of browser I use.

  Flash keys are embedded in the pages and the site was done in Dreamweaver. I posted the same question on the Dreamweaver forum and got vague answers.

  Is there a code I can put in my Flash buttons?

  If you have an answer please be specific as I'm not an expert.

  The site is fireonmcginnis.com

  or just type 'Fire on McGinnis' in a search engine.

  -Toastieo

  Spry or regular hyperlinks in a list configuration or nav. One is better than the buttons Flash.

  It's a search bot will read the HTML in these types of links (spry or HTML) and indexes. Way if you have a calendar of events for upcoming shows, or a Discography page, can and will be able to make a reference to them in search engine databases later (usually about 72 hours after indexing). Using the Flash, there is no code for the bot to find and your upcoming events, or a download page if there is one, will never be seen in a search even if people look directly to "fireonmcginnis: Annex", or "music by fireonmcginnis" because Google, Yahoo, Lycos and other pages simply do not exist.

  Spry is great if you have submenus, and since it can be customized using CSS, you can make it match your layout of the site. You can also do with hyperlinks regualr and CSS, but spry looks more attractive to a large number of Internet users and the submenus are a little more difficult with basic HTML.

  For the record, the script should read: getURL ("http://www.site.com/page.html""_self"); for the buttons. There's a drop down to select _blank, _self, _parent etc when you add the getURL script to the button.

  But... you need to stay away from the keys Flash for navigation or you're really defeat the purpose of putting a band on a Web site in the first place. It is the exhibition and keys Flash will limit seriously that exposure, even if they are working correctly.

• because of the flash buttons, but the links do not work on Web pages...

  I actionscripted some custom flash buttons with the getURL ("www..."), and they work when I preview them IN flash. When I publish, however and open the .swf file, I get a warning when I click it say something about security issues and the link never opens (or even attempted to). And finally, when I put the .swf into my .html, they do NOTHING when I click on them in preview...

  FYI - I started to do the site, and I am not yet connected to any server. I'm working locally... I use windows 7...

  Help, please! I'm about to sign with iPages Web hosting for and want up on the site soon!

  Thank you!

  If they are coded correctly in flash and imported in Dreamweaver it should work fine and most people have installed Flash Player on their machine. I think that people without the player will automatically be asked to download a free version of Flash Player, if they don't have. It has worked for me a couple of times and it's nice to have "fancy" animated buttons too!

• Difficulty of insertion of a Flash button.

  I'm trying to insert a Flash button in my web page, but it won't take.  I followed all the steps of the tutorial, Word for Word, but when I go to 'put' the site information none of the bytes are written.  No idea what I am doing wrong?  Thank you in advance.

  AFAIK, if you used Dreamweaver to place this code in the web page, it must have generated this js file and placed in a folder according to the code of the page.  So you'll want Ministers a Scripts folder somewhere in the vicinity of this site on your machine.

• Flash buttons do not appear in the browser

  I insert a Flash button. It is visible when I preview the page in a browser I have access from Dreamweaver. But apparently not visibly seen in a browser independently of Dreamweaver. A sample of this problem is here: http://www.newtoncornerneighborhood.org/test.html
  
  More generally, seems impossible to get the .swf files to appear visibly using Macintosh Dreamweaver CD3. I did have this problem using Dreamweaver MX. Can you help me understand what the problem is? How to solve this problem?
  Thank you.

  Find the Scripts folder located in the root of the local site folder
  and transfer.

• Flash buttons in Dreamweaver

  Hey everybody
  
  So I have these buttons Flash on my site (which is done in Dreamweaver), and when I go to "test" the site... the buttons will work when the page first loads (Home)... but if I click on a link, say 'Contact', the buttons are not there more! And if I come back to home' that they aren't there either!
  
  Does anyone have suggestions or solutions to this problem?
  
  Thanxs a lot in advance!

  You have the Flash buttons on web pages was my point. In other words,.
  do you have the same keys Flash on the Contact page?
  > Can someone take a look at my code and see what's wrong with it?
  intro_buttons.swf

  Is the intro_buttons.swf in the root of the web site folder - what? On the
  local disk the / could mean the root folder of the computer if you are not
  tests of http://.
