Flash CS3 transparent background

Okay I tried for weeks on this project, but I know that this is possible. I shot a subject in front of a green screen, and he wants a Flash animation comes from him (the subject) and not substantive. I told her that it could be done. I shot a 1 minute video using old DV cart to make pretty good green screen. I imported the avi clip in Premiere Pro 2 and used the chromakey (button color on some trials) to remove the green screen, while the background was black. I saved and exported in the form of quicktime, compressor codec of animation movie, millions of pix square color. Then, I used Flash CS3 and imported the video to the library by the On2 VP6 codec with the alpha channel selected. I've created two layers, the layer 1 a jpeg image. I have highlighted layer 2, dragged playback FLV to the stage and made sure to layer 2 spoke of layer 1. I saved and tested, but the background is still there. I tried in several ways; recorded a first Pro2 flash file and imported with encoder Flash CS3 using the same steps. I've even loaded and plus version 1.0 of the body and followed a tutorial to the letter. The FLV file plays well, but I do not see the image of layer 1 because the background is black and transparent. All I want is a transparent background where the subject is there no bottom. I have Ultra 2, Visual Communicator, I can make a background of almost anything, but I can't seem to make a transparent background!

Sorry for the long post, but I have this days. I posted this on three other forums (which I pay a monthly fee for expert service) all tell me to do the same thing. I know it must be something small, but anyone would be my hero if they could help me with this one! Thanks - Art

In order to obtain that the Alpha in the MOV, your settings should
be configured for millions + (not only the million). You can doublecheck on
This aspect?

There are also the setting "Alpha channel encodes" in importing video
Assistant. That's what carries the alpha channel in the FLV file. You could
be already do this, but we start somewhere, right? :) We
should be able to understand this.

  • Can not get the Transparent background in Adobe Flash Professional CS4

    I am wanting to create a moving object that will be exported in a tv spot.


    Object has already been created in Adobe Illustrator and now will be abandoned in flash for the addition of movement.


    The commercial destination will be created in Sony Vegas, with parameters of (Australian) television PAL (25 fps, 576 x 720 pixels, lower field first).


    So now simple, I want to put Adobe flash with the same output format, which means that the canvas must be 576 x 720 pixels at 25 frames per second.  So far, this seems to have worked very well.


    Now, I am eager to get rid of the color of the canvas, just as I have here in this screenshot of photoshop.

    Judging by the color palette in Flash Professional, looks like it's impossible.  I checked "transparent palette" through yahoo and google and had no results.  Only the adobe documentation details how to remove a background in Photoshop.

    Can someone tell me please how to get transparent background in Adobe Flash Professional CS4.  Thank you

    As much as I know there no option to set a file with a transparent background in Design view.  A transparent background is normally performed in the code of a page integration web html that displays the Flash file (using wmode = "transparent" as a parameter).

  • Transparent background for Flash video

    I would like to know how to create Flash videos with a transparent background. This allows video to be played on a web page so that the content of the web page shows through the alpha channel of the video. I can edit video in Adobe AfterEffects to generate the file .flv with an alpha channel that can be exported in Flash 8. But when I import into Flash 8 and create the .swf file, Flash provides an opaque background (I chose the color). I want to be able to keep the transparency effect, I created in AfterEffects.

    Here's a URL for the effect I want to achieve:

    http://eimpression.myrealtytools.com

    The video appears rooted at the bottom of the page. It is a very cool effect that I would like to be able to reproduce. I'm guessing that it may require that some actionscript to control the alpha of the background. Any help to understand this would be greatly appreciated.

    to get the transparency effect, actually enter you the .html surrounding using "wmode = transparent" Google this and you should fine a tutorial. Don't forget that when you actually wmode and its value to paste here twice (like all other tags that are already there).

  • How to make a transparent background when editing

    Hello

    I was wondering how to get a transparent background in flash.  I did a lot of research and have seen many forums, but I don't want my file to export to HTML.  Is it possible to have a transparent background, with some having to have a HTML file?  I try this enter into Camtasia Studio, but there is a white rectangle behind the animation, blocking all the rest.

    Thank you

    Orion31

    You export a video to enter in Camtasia? If, therefore, in the export options video there is a checkbox to say to ignore the color of the scene and to generate an alpha channel. Don't say to compress the video in Adobe Media Encoder, just take the MOV file in Camtasia.

    If you say that Camtasia supports importing of SWF files, then it would be Camtasia to make the background transparent.

  • How to import moving in first with a transparent background GIF images?

    I have an animated gif that I got from the internet, and I'm trying to import into Premiere Pro with a transparent background. The gif is a motionless, flashing video game character. Whenever I import it, it always has a white background, so I need help on how to change this.

    I went into Photoshop and removed the white background image by image, making it transparent. I have it using the magic wand tool to select the white background, then press 'delete' to make this grid of diamond, which means that it is transparent. I then select file-> save for Web. I saw each image, and it shows that the funds are transparent. I have to save it in a gif file. But when I import into Premiere Pro, the white background is still there.

    I read many forums online on the people trying to import images into Premiere Pro with a transparent background, but none of them explained how to do specifically for animated gifs. Each answer has always been "export image into a png image, which is going to work" and of course, I exported some frames of the gif, png, and these images have transparent backgrounds in Premiere Pro. But I don't want a png because that is not the animated sequences, those who may be still images. I need to export it to a gif file so that it remains lively, but gif files always have this white background dreaded in Premiere Pro.

    I guess I could export each image as a PNG, each of these frames import into Premiere Pro, then string together all the frames and twist them so they will be functionally identical to the animated gif image, but that would take forever. I am doing a video project and I need many gifs animated work, so I don't want to do this with each of them. I'm looking for a way to simply import GIF files into Premiere Pro and be done with it. If there is a way to do this, please help me.

    And in project brouser right click on the clip, film (I don't remember how it the CS6). Settings out there for an Alpha channel.

  • Seal a .swf with a transparent background in an XHTML file

    I'm trying to integrate a .swf with a transparent background in an XHTML file. The only answer I found so far is to use < param name = 'wmode' value = 'transparent' > in the object params and wmode = "transparent" in the embed tag. Using this code, the entire .swf file goes transparent with icons. I also read to use "export html code" in Flash (using transparent windowless in settings) but that gives me a file .html huge to make it transparent which is of no use to me. I need for the import/include in my page home using a few lines of code. Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't think that you listen to what I say.  You use the embed code is old and will not work with recent browsers, and as you have, it would be incomplete, even in those ancient times.

    You don't have to use the page that Flash produces when you publish an html page.  You can copy and paste this code in place of what you now that does not.  CS6 provides a little more efficient integration of code that CS4 will be, but still CS4 will bring something better than what you use.

  • Help with the Flash CS3 Tutorial Code effect particle

  • Flash CS3 Pro CS6: games works more slowly?

    Good, everyone. I will try to explain the problem I encounter as concise as I can:

    I just got a new iMac (10.8.2) and I got all my stuff in CS3 hover over with a transfer system. However, Flash CS3 has this message "error initializing java runtime environment" and I can't get it repaired despite the number of 'solutions' that I found, mainly because the patches are for older versions of Mac and its operating systems. That said, if anyone has found a fix for this problem on the new iMacs and operating systems, please let me know and ignore everything that I'm about to ask questions on below.

    However, I decided to give a whirl CS6 and see if I should go ahead and upgrade to one. The problem that I am running is disconcerting say the least. I was doing a game in Flash CS3 and Actionscript 3 on my old Macbook Pro (2007-2008ish) and I managed to run at a solid 60 frames per second. This is not really surprising, given how little there is in the game so far, but I am concerned that they run slower when running through Flash CS6 on a computer more recent (2.9 Ghz Intel Core i5, 8 GB of RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650 M 512 MB).

    I tested the executable (.app) both the .swf, and both run much slower than they should. Cadence plunges even when there is nothing on the screen except for the character and background. Curiously, if I have the game running in Flash Player 9, it works fine, but everything else (10 and more) runs significantly more bad.

    Anyone know why the game will run more slowly? I even tried to use hardware acceleration, and there was no change whatsoever. If the files that I opened, .as files both .fla, were at the origin of the CS3 files? Creating CS6 files from scratch and then bring the content and code on would fix the problem?

    Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

    Ian

    Never experienced sth. Like this. It should not matter if you are publishing to Flash Player 9 (CS3) or 11 (CS6).

    I even tried to use hardware acceleration

    Hardware acceleration will be most often slow down your fps if you are not using the Stage3D/Starling features, you will need to disable your Flash Player via right click options, too, though. It would be my first guess would default to HwAcc a new installed Flash Player 11.5, so you must manually, turn off when it does.

    If its possible for you: load 2 (CS3 - swf, CS6 - swf) Versions of your game to the top and post the link, then I could test it in Windows to see if his mayba a number Macrelated.

  • Transparent background instead of color for the stage

    Is there a way to set the background color of the scene for transparent instead of a color? I don't see color option by clicking in the Manager of the property for the background.

    Do you mean transparent when designing in Flash, or after you publish the .swf to use on a Web page?

    On the Web page, you add the wmode transparent parameter to the embed code for give a transparent background to the scene.

  • PShop/Mac ~ how to get rid of the transparent background?

    Hi people,

    I recently changed world from PC to MAC, loving every minute of it, but

    the strange problem happens.

    I am running PS CS3 on snow leopard X and pshop has a transparent background, which means that I can see my office and all the other apps, icons and open windows; gadgets and tools of pshop are scattered, and visually, it's a mess.

    I really liked the Uni on the windows application background; is it possible to restore this type of background on my mac?

    Thank you

    This is normal on Macintosh.  Turn on the frame of the App if you like the way of Windows to hide all your other work.

  • Flash CS3: Help me make my movie play, please!

    URL: http:schoolsignsonline.com

    It is an electronic company sign, so I will try to put a Flash animation of one of their signs on their pre-existing site. No sound, no skin, no control, whole movie, an endless loop.

    I imported a video .avi (from PC) of the client in Flash CS3 (on a Mac), and made sure my internship is the same size as file settings.

    Saved the file. Test the movie in Flash. * The movie plays just fine *. This is a picture of colourful balloons, growing on a black background.

    I publish the movie.

    I copy the .fla and .swf into folder flash at the root of the site on my local server.

    I go to Dreamweaver CS3 to insert the film using their integration > Flash in the div that I created for this on the index page (which uses only SSI for the nav and footer only - no PHP involved - so each page has an .shtml extension).

    I test the movie in DW by clicking on the green arrow in the toolbar properties. Nothing but white. Movie does not play, or if he plays, it's only white.

    What the devil. I save the page, leaving the DW to generate the script.

    I have download the index page revised the flash (with the .swf and .fla inside files) folder and the folder Scripts of the site on the remote server.

    Go to a browser. Nothing but white where the film is supposed to be.

    I've asked about this on the Adobe DW on Yahoo Groups group and don't know, thinking it was a problem of Flash. One of them says that the film could not be found. Dang it! This is a script that DW generated when I placed the film in the page! I don't know anything about JavaScript (yet), so I'm not going to muck about in the code to break.

    BTW, the HTML code of the page with the movie about it is no longer valid - I hear that this is typical an insertion of Flash CS3 by DW.

    Can someone PLEASE help me understand what I did wrong? What other information do you need from me?

    Thank you in advance.

    There is a link to the problem with my button, that I created using Flash CS3, Action Script 2.0. The first button is inside a big white box. Anyone know why this problem and how can I solve this problem? Thank you very much. It will be greatly appreciated.

    Here's what I think, what your problem is.  Your internship must be resized to the size of the image.  I'm just guessing that you publish the SWF in this file and the code that places it in an html page is saying that it is very small to fit in this small space, but the swf file includes all of the white background that see you... then all you see is a specification due to having shrunk so small in the web page swf file.

    If you change your Document settings to the dimensions that you see for the width and height of the Flash file in the html code.  Then move the content in the scenic space and publish this file.

  • Flash CS3 for Flex 3 Communication

    I apologize, although the installation page says "Please use"Attach the Code"in order to include examples of code in the message." The button does not appear in my browser (Firefox).

    I have a UI developed in Flash CS3 by our graphic designer. I have the code written in Flex that has a bunch of backend calculations that must be done when one of the user interface buttons are clicked.

    The UI.swf file have a manager like that on the button:
    (release)
    {
    Collect information
    Send information to the Flex container.
    If (_root.updatePrefs)
    {
    _root.updatePrefs (the_data);
    }
    }


    The main.mxml file includes:

    < mx:Script >
    <! [CDATA]
    public void updatePrefs(the_data:Object):void
    {
    Perform calculations
    }

    [Embed(source="assets/UI.swf")]
    [Bindable]
    public var UI: Class;
    []] >
    < / mx:Script >
    < mx:Image id = 'background' source '{UI}"="0"= XY ="0"/ >


    It is important to note that the UI.swf file was created with Actionscript 2.0 enabled instead of Actionscript 3.0.

    The call in the onrelease handler seems to not work. What must I do to have the UI.swf file to communicate with the Flex file?

    Thank you.

    The two responses presented by Greg Lafrance and ntsiii are correct. This message is to summarize their responses and provide links that are not well.

    AS 2.0 and AS 3.0 work in different virtual machines, thus they do not communicate directly.

    You can use the LocalConnection class to communicate between two virtual machines.

    If you upgrade the CS3 file to use Actionscript 3.0, then you can use the cross-programming method for communication. It's simple, if they are loaded from the same server with the same domain name. They can talk to each other directly.

  • Alpha ignored by the Flash CS3 text field value

    It is a problem, I noticed in Flash CS3. I checked livedocs and noted in Flash8 too:
    Comment by rainair:
    leader = 00002437.html & http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveD ocs_Parts

    So, I have a clip in which I put a text field. I've done the transparent clip (setting alpha to 0) and everything is OK (the pliers and the deposited text are not visible) while I'm still working with the timeline and stage. When I test or publish the movie the text field is always visible. I have a Flash Player 9,0,115,0 installed on my computer.
    I did some tests and found that:
    If the text field is static text, it WORKS. Text field has the same alpha value as the clip that holds it.
    If the text field is a dynamic text it does not. Submitted text is visible.
    If the deposited text is entered and there is NO character to incorporate, the text field IS visible (it looks like the alpha value is 100).
    If the text field is the input text and incorporate characters, the deposited text IS NOT (as expected) visible.
    It's strange. I'd say it's a bug.

    BTW, it seems that you can add comments to Flash 8 livedocs (after clicking on the add comment button, you are redirected to a log in page and you can submit a comment), but when I went to Flash CS3 livedocs you can't. There is a message 'comments are no longer accepted for Flash CS3. Flash CS4 is the current version. To discuss Flash CS3, please use the Adobe forum. ». This nonsense!

    Wow, you don't need to go through this whole process just to embed fonts in a dynamic text field that is already on scene. Click the field in your text on the stage, click the character of dipping and embed the characters you need. Fact.
