Flash grid to the Director

In the past, we only created software for Windows using Director, so we had a ton of options for grid controls.

Now, we were asked to transfer a Mac software as well. This reduces our choices for grids ( who looks and decent work in the two BONES) to enough property grid control Flash available in Director.

It looks pretty good and it works very well, but one thing that happens all the time it's columns are always too small (width) and the text gets cramped or wrapped. The user must always manually drag the column widths, so that they can read.

If I'm looking for in the help files that I can't find anything on the grid control Flash... are there commands Lingo that will allow me to set the column widths?

Thank you Charles,.

The grid component is actually located to the Director immediately after installation ( I never transferred it)... but this isn't a part of the Flash menu/toolbar components... just the Code Library.

I use it with VisionDB at the MNI who recommends the grid for the realization, although it took me a few minutes to find out where he stood.

Anyway, that aside, I figured out where adjust them their codes of measure (INMS) affect the column widths better... problem was that they used the title of column as a catalyst for width rather than the longest entry in the column.

All-in-all it works really well, and so there is no problem with the grid component Flash in Director MX 2004 10.1 if at least I have a good option for cross-platform grates now.

  • CSS Flash movies to the Director?

    Anyone know if you can put a SWF Flash AS3/CSS in a film by Director?
    Thank you

    Director MX2004 will not work with a .swf Flash CS3/AS3 file. With the help of an external css file should be no problem. You need connect the .swf and import not directly in the Director movie.

    Works for me in Director 11.0.3.466 on Windows XP Pro SP3, but you did not provide all the information, so it is difficult to know why it wouldn't work for you.

    You don't make it easy to download the SWF (like, place it in a zip archive) and you explain that "[t] works" - If you want others to help you, you should be much more useful.

  • Flash Volume to the Director

    Hello

    I have a number of flash files in .swf format I need to integrate into a film by Director. I would want the user is able to adjust the voume of them through Director but cannot find a way to adjust the volume of files flash via Lingo. I understand that if I had the original .fla files so I could assign the volume to a variable and manipulate through Lingo, but I did not.

    sound (1) .volume does not work, probably locks the sound of flash files is not performed by the ways of its Director. I'm pretty new to Flash but comfortable with Lingo so is there anything opbvious that I'm missing?

    Pointers gratefully received,

    See you soon,.

    This code is on the old post on this subject - it refers to Director MX and Flash 6, so I don' don'tknow if it still works.

    obj = sprite (1) .newObject ("Sound") - sprite 1 is your swf
    obj.setVolume (50) - volume can be set between 0 and 100

  • Flash getURL links work when SWF is embedded to the Director?

    I have a simple test platform that said no, the links no longer work. All this works?

    My test bench includes two buttons in Flash, you get a PDF from a remote server, the other opens a PDF locally on my hard drive.

    When played from the Flash drive, the local link works fine, the remote link looks like it would work if I was willing to change my security settings and restart.

    When they are incorporated into the Director both links are inactive.

    And, even if it is not terribly relevant, when the SWF file is read remotely via a browser, the remote link works

    Your Flash .swf is expected to be housed in a HTML doc, and so a getURL function is tried to reach out to the browser. When you import your .swf in a film by the Director, the film's Director takes the place of the browser window. If your function does not in a browser. This is compounded if you play the .swf from a Director projector because there is no immediately available browser.

    There is a simple solution. You can use the getURL me, string function in Director to intercept the url.

    So if your Flash animation has something like this:

    ------------
    myButton.onRelease = function() {}
    getURL ("www.disney.com", _blank);
    }
    ------------

    Then in your Director movie, write a behavior something like this:

    ----------------
    thisSprite property

    on beginSprite me
    thisSprite = me.spriteNum
    end

    on getURL me, link, target
    gotoNetPage link, target
    end
    -------------

    Then screw the Flash sprite this behavior.

  • See the directories but no files after downloading

    Installed my Media Hub and install a 2nd drive successfully.  When I insert the USB stick and 32 GB sandisk flash drive data, the device announcement download is finished.  But when I look at the directory structure, the new directories are in place, but I don't see any file.  Do not understand what is happening.

    I think that mediahub will alone importing media (avi, wmv, mp3, etc.), it will not import any multimedia files (txt, doc, ppt.exe, etc...). You will need to copy and paste no media files manually. I find the files it can import the same types of files located on the list below.

  • getURL to send the message to the Director does not work

    Hello:

    I work with Flash CS5.5 and I need to send data to the Director. I used this command before getURL ("lingo: sprite (15) .visible = TRUE'");

    but now does not work.

    Can you tell me, please, how I can send and retrieve data from Flash CS5.5 and vice versa?

  • Select the search for a site created with the Director

    How can I index a site created with the Director for google? (dcr file).

    Thank you.

    Google can not definitely analyze your site 'pages' because there is not.

    The best you can do is use the submission process of Google site to submit your site. However, again, when the Google spider will crawl it there will be nothing. That's why I would never create a whole site to the Director... Well, that's one of the reasons and a good enough if all you need is a. I would use the Director I want Flash to add interactive content / animation on a Web site as a '' recommended '' the site section - and although this can now be done using HTML5 and other scripts or cross browser frameworks/technologies such as JQuery which, IMHO, are much better solutions.

  • Using animations Maya to the Director

    (Beginner to Adobe Director 11.5)

    Hello

    I'm fighting to get started on a project. There are several ways to go about this, but I want to make it more realistic and more epic as possible. In other words, using Director rather than Flash.

    On a basic level, I have a series of short animations 3D 50-60, I don't want the user to select and display with a complete mastery of the position of the camera around the scene.

    I use Autodesk Maya to the scene, but I have no idea how to get an object or animation in Director, then start to work. What types of files should I be using and stuff?

    I'm still in the design and planning for the moment so more interested to know if this is possible. But assistance would also be useful to me.

    Thank you very much

    Patrick

    the animations are imported, your 3d program. in your Mayan case. When I say its good animation. I mean its good to import and play back exactly as it appears in your 3d software. Director channels similar to flash layers are really not so different. remember your dealing with 3d. You can scale or move the entire scene / member through code or keyframes.

    Director not to make normal or bump mapping. you will have to do what you can with medium low-poly characters. I created techniques to deal with this. Here is one. you will need to enter your mental ray scene in a texture so that it appears in the Director

    It's flat and rugged at the same time

  • Invisible & quot; Clips video & quot; to the Director

    I've been hitting my head against the wall trying to figure out how I would do the equivalent to the Director:
    In Flash, I have a movie with 2 clips of film. 1 clamp is a book of questions and depending on how you answer an animation runs in the other clip. For the end user, it looks like a single screen on the same background.

    The Director how to create a separate calendar (clickable / q) who perform an another chronology (animations of answer)? If I use MIAW, they have a boarder of the window. I would really like it if these 2 friezes were running on a basic scenario where other things doing their thing when the quiz is over. It would be the background with all the other buttons/links.


    Possible, impossible, stick to Flash? Help!

    If you have q then password answer one after the other, then you
    could easily use sequential images. You can still use single sprite
    channels for each item.

    If you want to do the loop thing, then you can just put a simple if...
    then... condition in the last picture:

    on exitFrame me
    If T1 = true then
    Repeat with n = 1 to 15
    Sprite (n) .visible = false
    end repeat
    Repeat with n = 16 to 31
    Sprite (n) .visible = true
    end repeat
    end if
    end

    You will also need to start the first image in this article by
    turning and on the correct sprite channels. Don't forget that when you
    Clear the visible property of a sprite channel, it remains off, be it
    There is something in this channel or not.

  • Why my Firefox flashed to all the time?

    I installed the latest version of Firefox on the official site, I'm also re install the flash player for it but who do not have a lot.
    Because of flash player, I can see the videos, images GIF etc in Firefox but can't stop flashing Firefox. It is consistently flashing and it flashes most during navigation, especially, when he opened in the background also flashing all over the screen.

    Looks like this could be linked to the graphic acceleration and hardware. Please consider the following:

    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

    You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Then perform the following steps:

    1. Open the Firefox Options (Preferences on Mac or Linux) as follows:

      • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

        then select Options Preferences on Mac or Linux, or Windows.

      • In 28.0 Firefox and earlier versions, click on the Firefox orange upper-left button, then select the 'Options' button or, if there is no button up Firefox, go to tools > Options.
    2. In the window of Firefox Options (or preferences), click on the Advanced tab, and then select general.
    3. You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
    4. Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

    In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

  • Flash Player on the transition to Windows 7

    I've just updated my operating system from Windows XP to Windows 7 Pro (SP1). I can't install Adobe Flash plugin for fire Fox and Seamonkey on Windows 7. I managed to install Flash internal Explorer, and Chrome.
