newbie question on the rendering of text with the movement

Hello

I'm new to Flash and after 10 hours of training, self-taught and little results, I would like to ask the experts for help.  In a flash animation I want three lines of text where I want line1 to appear with a predefined query, then line2 below line1 appear with a predefined query, then line3 row2 to appear with the preset motion aplomb.  I want to have the smallest possible file to fla.  Can someone advise how to do this?

Thank you very much

Jay

Jay,

The text layer a movieClip is on its own layer and I just applied a percentage of alpha to the last movieClip on layer one. You can see my tween of a percentage alpha of 100 up to a percentage of 35 alpha.

An excellent resource for the animation of the timeline is the book of Chris Georgenes... "How to cheat in Adobe Flash CS3". There is also a book for CS4.

You can also do this same thing with ActionScript 2 and ActionScript 3. It is however a bit more of a subject in depth.

  • Sound weird distortion on Export - Newbie question not the Compression

    I'm trying the demo Flash CS3 - OSX. (Using OS x 10.4.10.)

    I have a timeline a bit complicated with about 8 layers and some alpha fading things and out and a lot of sound samples used as sound effects timeline (forget the term, but attached to the frames don't not streaming). No script writing.

    The sounds are too long most for the amount of time allotted to them in the timeline and cut the previous sounds. I speculate that this could be a possible problem. In other words, I said 5 second sound, which has only 3 seconds of time to play, before another sound, he interrupts in the same layer of the timeline.

    There are two distinct layers of the sound at the same time.

    All original sounds are imported into the film as erroneous 44.1/16 bits. What are mono files (could be another possible problem).

    I'm trying to export with 128 k MP3 quality. I tried different variations:

    -the compression setting for audio files in the library/setting film export settings to use the settings of the library

    -definition of the audio files in the library to use 'default compression' and specifying the correct setting of MP3 128 k in the export settings

    - or both of them (individually defined in the library and then overridden in export settings).

    I tried with and without the 'single use' parameter (both in the library files and export settings). (This is a question for me: what should be set properly so that when the original file is already mono?)

    Sometimes, everything is great. I have test or export the movie and the sound is fine.

    Other times I test or export the movie - with exactly the same audio as the last time when it worked - and now get a hissing/cracking sound unbearably ugly instead of the correct sound.

    More dangerously - I think but did not quite convince myself - the same export flash file can sometimes play end and sometimes play with the distortion. So I'm not sure if it's a question of export, Flash player problem or combination of export do something semi-bizarre that the player sometimes only chokes on. A 'bad' export is distorted in the desktop Flash Player that comes with the Flash demo, both in a browser with the Flash 9 r45 (OSX) plugin.


    GUH!

    What is the product of $800 which is little more than a Basic for the script text editor and an animation timeline that did not feature update since 1999.

    For someone else to do this...

    It is looking like it is a bug of Flash CS3 app.

    The app is intermittently lose range of the sound/document library settings or just chokes sometimes MP3 Converter trying to convert AIFF to MP3 files on the export of the film.

    Fortunately, it looks like once a .swf movie is exported, it will be distorted or not and is not a problem of random play or player.

    So you can just export several times until you get a 'good' (!).

    I've only got with export MP3 128 k, never with 64 k MP3 to export. For 128K, it seems that fiddling with the sound settings before trying to export can prevent distortion. My best results seem to be:

    -all the wrong in the library, the value 'default - compression.

    -Publish settings of ' event Audio: MP3, 128kpbs, Mono; Substitute uncontrolled sound settings

  • Question about the move on CS5 tool

    Used CS5 for over a year.  Now, unexpectedly, the move does not work.  In fact, it will move the layer, but will not re-size.  Can someone tell me what could have happened?   Thank you!!

    Perhaps you view controls to turn uncontrolled tool move?

  • Hi all new here. Newb question... is this possible with flash?

    Hi everyone hoping that you can help a newb like me out. Thanks in advance for your time. I'm doing a video exactly like this.

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=UbMOTNI8tcE

    I know that in the video he implies that he uses a lighting control thing, but I think it's really just animating the cartoon. I want to just animate a "caricature of line" like this. I can do it in flash? This isn't for a Web site like a film that sort of thing. I can access virtually all other software adobe in my school, so if I need to use another program I can do. Looking for someone to direct me in the right direction and maybe give a few tips on how to go to that topic. Thank you.

    Open flash and you will see a timeline with frames (which are all empty when starting).  draw something on the stage.  It will be in frame 1.  Right-click on frame 10, and choose Insert keyframe.  your drawing will now be in frame 10.  Double-click your drawing to select it, move your mouse, and then on the drawing of some and then drag it to the right and release.  Right-click between frame 1 and frame 10, and then click motion tween.  Test your animation.

    now start to play with flash and see what you can do.  not, you will learn how to create your animation by asking questions.

    You can get help to start, but you now have enough information to get started.  You can get more help when you run into problems.

  • Newbe question about the network configuration of ESXi 3.5

    I have ESXi 3.5 works well on a Dell Poweredge T300 server.  I want to connect a Netgear ReadyNas Pro Business Edition for this Dell and connect by iscsi.

    I want to connect 1 network card of the ReadyNas for 1 network card on the Dell printer.

    My question is on the Dell when I go to the ESXi server and customize by pressing F2 and goto network settings I see the following:

    X vmnic0 embeeded nic1

    NIC2 integrated vmnic1 used by vswitch1

    I'm may be thick but can you explain what NIC on the ESXi server is used for access interenet and I need to configure for iscsi?  I thought that it should be obvious, but it is vmnic0 or vmnic1?

    Your ESXi host has two vswitchs configured what uplinks to physical NIC in the system.

    vSwitch0 what uplinks to vmnic0 (who, although a red x, indicating a problem seems to be very well) this vswitch holds you management interface (IP 192.168.2.107) and a portgroup of VM for your virtual machines. You also have an another vswitch vswitch1 what uplinks to GB NIC vmnic1. This vswitch has unused virtual machine port group. Also a VLAN ID has been set for this vswitch which would lead me to believe that VST is / was operating on that host in the past.

    Haven't you set up this? If this isn't the case, I would get with one who did.

    Order "the great vSwitch debate" parts 1 and 2 to start.

  • Newbie question for the Oracle application server

    Hi Master,
    a DBA I am interesting to broaden my skill with learning on the application server.
    I knew that in the past before Weblogic bought by Oracle, Oracle, always using Oracle application server.
    Now with the Weblogic gaining more popularity on the market, which is the product the value of learning and get certified.

    Is it still useful to take Application Server 10 g or go with Weblogic. in certification path, Weblogic 10 g.
    WebLogic now replaces the Oracle application server, average abandoned Oracle Application Server?

    Please enlighten me and thank you for your help

    Lie

    Question if I go for Oracle WebLogic Server 10 g Administrator Certified Expert System it will be good to work with 11g thus?

    Make it part of the same system (now). Like WebLogic is the portal and the Jukebox, forms etc. are the records.

    What book other than the documentation that you have found the right one for learning.

    Yet to find one, Oracle documentation was OK.

    Is it better to learn the Linux or Windows version?

    Both are very well, choose the operating system you know better.

    Best regards

    I built my Middleware on Linux 64-bit test. Note that the 32-bit version allows to run Forms and Reports Developer.

    Beware of pre-installation tasks

    Install the Oracle database
    Linux RCU (repository creation utility)

    Database

    Use an existing database. (And it worked)

    My test was divided into four main parts: (in this order)

    Installation of the regional coordination unit
    WebLogic Server Install
    Install JRocket
    Forms and reports Install

    According to me, it took me two or three times to do things. (or at least work)

    I found myself with these URLs in the end:

    Administration Server Console http://Host/console 7001
    Enterprise Manager Console http://Host/em 7002
    Enterprise Manager Agent http://Host/emd/main
    Oracle Forms http://Host/formes/frmservlet 9001

    So far, I have only an addition to my Web Page:

    Hi people, I have a Spry region on my soon-to-be home page ( http://snailtales.org/index-teachers.html) who refuses to view the http://snailtales.org/snailtales.rss file

    I have been informed in a previous post that "the RSS file content-type is text/plain. It should be text/xml. IE is picky about such things. Change that and it should work. »

  • Newbie question about the firmware loading and music

    Hi all.  Firstly a bit of background.  I am a former admin of system IT I got a C240 as a gift.  I tried to remove the music from Windows Vista section of the computer where the C240 is listed as a portable device.  Now, I can't get things to work quite right.  I seem to have the 8 original songs/5 albums that come with the device.  The number has doubled to 16, and half of them cannot play.  I'm not sure I want to do with this device, but I want to clear in addition to all the current music and load my own.  I tried to download the update of the firmware and it still just waiting and never took the screen "search for updates".

    Also, I have Media Player 11 and it does not recognize the unit.  So, how do Media Player to see the device, copy music to it and delete the prepackaged songs accompanying?  Any help will be appreciated.  I don't want to choose the format from the settings menu, unless it's the way to go.  Arrest me please make any more mistakes!  Thanks in advance for help a dummie MP3!  -Victor

    OK I got when I hit reset I changed the USB to MSC settings to automatic detection.  So I reset on MSC.  Now I see the Unit 11 MP so how can I delete and add music?  Thanks for bearing with me! -Victor

  • Newbie question: place the Illustrator .eps or .ai file in InDesign

    I have an Illustrator file contains text that has been converted to outline text.  When I placed .ai or .eps version of the file in a new InDesign document, the text is composed of pixel blocks that make it not only unsightly but also illegible. My goal is to place that looks like it is in Illustrator and is resizable as vector.  This is my first shot using InDesign so I don't know that I do something wrong, I just don't know what.  I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you!

    You did nothing wrong; not sure that ID displays previews low-resolution images. You can view previews full resolution images placed by going to view-> display performance-> display high quality, or you can right-click on any one image and set its resolution of preview in its own menu of display performance, just that a placed image.

  • Newbie question: using the pen tool

How can I get this line to connect as a form to invoke filling on it?

  • Simple (hopefully) newbie question on the Export model

    Entirely new to ODM - so please be gentle! - and you would really appreciate to help smart people.

    We use ODM (10 g) to make some predictive analytics (SVM). The question I have is:

    Once a model is 'built' and trained on historical data, can model that be exported to and used in another environment (external) Oracle (assuming of course that the data columns are equivalent)?

    Can you tell me if the model is exported as an ODM object - and so would require an instance of the ODM to the outside environment. Or, if it is exportable in the form of, say, a table of coefficients that may simply be questioned outside without needing an instance of ODM.

    I hope it's a clear explanation of what I'm trying to get to. thanks in advance.

    Hello
    Yes, you can export/import a model from an Oracle database to a different Oracle DB using the pl/sql API, documented in the doc PL/SQL Packages and Types.
    DBMS_DATA_MINING. EXPORT_MODEL
    DBMS_DATA_MINING. IMPORT_MODEL
    If you build a SVM model using the linear option, you can extract the coefficients in table form and import them into an Oracle database in some mid-layer service or not.
    Thank you, Mark

  • Newbie question: estimate the effort using gen?

    If I have an existing Word document (say 100 pages), which is the process and the effort required to apply a Robohelp template and adjust if necessary to generate Webhelp based?

    3. generating help
    4. any other thing?

    Any estimate or guidance will be greatly appreciated!

    Yes, both versions can produce webhelp but HR HTML allows you to present the things you can't do in HR for Word. See Twisties on my site for example.

    You will also better get HTML HTML HR who, while you are a beginner can bother you, it will probably be later.

    Another reason to go with HR HTML is that it is more popular and better supported in these forums. If you hit a problem with HR for Word, you can not get responses too these days.

    Now let's look at your work scenario. As Colum as said, you can generate a printed document HR HTML for your small business. Any document that you give them, you do not want to import. Instead you're going to make the changes yourself then what version you use becomes academic.

    Output print suggests not HR for Word. See the section on my site about printed Documentation. Which is written for RH HTML and yet once again, control is better, yes the better.

    Given your knowledge of Word, I understand your desire to remain in his comfort zone. I was even initially but Rick Stone (Robowizard on these forums) have convinced me that this was not the best way. Of course, you're in for a few sorrows, but everyone here will help you. With some effort on your part, it is not so difficult that you probably fear.

    That's right, you could do

        Export-Csv "C:\test.csv" -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
