    in need of criticism

    Hi Patricia! What about saving the images as Jpeg's? That might help on the file size. I have experimented quite a bit with Flash movies with pictures in (i.e. file size) and find that jpegs can be a good answer to bitmaps. If you want have a look at www.qutec.co.uk (my first Flash site). The...

    in need of criticism

    Oooh, I can't cope with all this French speaking! I loved the site though. Great graphics, more impressive artwork though! My only niggles are the same as the others have said, slow to download. Also the images lok so nice you want to have a closer look which you can't as they are quite small...

    MC Addressing-DavDesign or OldNewbie or Flash Gurus...

    Hi, Not entirely sure what you mean either, but are you trying to make a movie clip stop and start and having trouble with levels? If so try _root to send commands or whatever to the main stage.

    Buttons/Actions

    hi! Yes, I think you use the FS command and use the exe setting.

    Hi, I am not sure but I wouldn't have thought so. What is it you are exactly trying to do?

    help needed – movie is resetting

    Hi there! Right. What action have you used on the "onClick"? Have you made the movie with the different pages as scenes? If you have the action should be: on (release) { nextScene (); } If you are loading a movie onto level 1 or 0 it will be:on (release) { loadMovieNum...

    Moving movies to other movies.

    Sorry, misunderstood. I would then do as oldnewbie said and drag the items from the library into the new libary or stage. Simple as that. If you drag it onto the stage it will automatically put all the symbols and images into your new libary.

    Moving movies to other movies.

    Hi, It is a bit difficult to know exactly what you mean (it always is hard to explain some flash!)so if I am wrong, ignore me! I would copy all the frames of your movie that you don't want to recreate and then create a new movie symbol in the main movie and paste all the frames into there. You...

    Please help me with standalone!!!

    Thanks mate! Yes that is the only way to do it I think. I will have a look for that thread. The only thing is it must work on a mac as well, which VB script does not! Bummer. I think I will have to do something in Applescript(ahhhh)and I am only a poor old designer!

    Please help me with standalone!!!

    The application is a standalone movie which takes over the full screen. I am duplicating last years application so I do not have the choice as to how it works. The application shows the pictures (and there are loads!) so you can choose which ones you want to download. Thats why. The application...

    buttons & movies

    Hi, I may be barking up the wrong tree here but why are you loading .swf files into the mouse events? Wouldn't it be easier to put in a movie symbol into the mouse over and out? Then you wouldn't have the level problem. Also it could be one movie with the rollover and off. Put a stop action in...
