Redirect to original
Description Download! Also, i made this in Macromedia Flash 8...so it probably won't work with older versions of Flash

This is the working component of [link]

HERE WE GOOO!

Sorry for having made you guys wait. Although i'll have you know that i havent done any of my homeworks because of this so if i fail anything...i'm gonna be blaming it on you.

Very simple basic tutorial for those that kinda have a clue as to how Flash works. Newbies who dont know the basics please go read up on tuts such as:

- Flash tut for Newbies
- A Flash tut animation
- Learn flash
- F1 in flash

because you will have no idea what the hell i'm talking about lol.

If you're still having problems with it feel free to note me or comment me with your problem or whatever.

Sure, if you know how then i don't mind, it's supposed to try and be more or less customisable lol.
Although i should make mention that i had to edit the original .fla in Flash CS3, so it doesn't work with Flash MX anymore (so i hope you have something newer than that!).

Hello again I was wondering if you would know how I can have my text dynamically styled with the scrollbar in Flash? A big problem I'm having with the scrollbar component in Flash is that when I change my font with italics or font size changes, then export my file, the font is all one size and doesn't show bold/italic words.

Oh yeah, I have Flash CS5 now, but I'm still working with Flash 6, lol.

Darqx In reply to NanasFreak [2011-01-05 05:31:06 +0000 UTC]

Sorry When i first made it i'd done it in MX, but i fixed an error in it using CS3 and the furthest backwards compatible format CS3 can save in is Flash 8

NanasFreak In reply to Darqx [2011-01-05 08:28:26 +0000 UTC]

TTnTT Sad face, I was looking forward to using it. Is it possible you could make a tutorial about the action script and how a person can set it up in Flash themselves? I'd really love to figure that out. Haha. Either way, I think I'll be getting Flash CS5 soon, I'm not sure.

Darqx In reply to NanasFreak [2011-01-05 15:13:58 +0000 UTC]

Haha well there's really not that much to it, you just need to know the actionscript for things like the preloader and buttons and you are pretty much good to go

NanasFreak In reply to Darqx [2011-01-05 23:01:14 +0000 UTC]

Well I don't know how to command stuff to go to different pages. Are the pages on Scenes or justseparate keyframes navigated through via buttons? Also, I don't know how to set up scroll in the Flash and the actionscript for it.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Darqx In reply to NanasFreak [2011-01-07 12:30:50 +0000 UTC]

That's where the button actionscript comes in Although if you are searching for tutorials keep in mind that AS3 and AS2 are rather different!

The pages are usually just separate keyframes navigated through with the buttons - scenes are often hard to work with (imo) and i don't think many people really use them lol.

As for the scroll bar i think there should be a flash component incorporated into flash for one, which means you won't have to worry about any actionscript for it --> [link]
I've never really used it though, so i don't know how well it will work

You will need Flash 8 or later for it to work properly

Darqx In reply to 22222222222222 [2010-09-04 17:13:39 +0000 UTC]

Ohh it used to work in Flash MX (cos that's what i'd made it in originally), but then when i did a small fix of the file i had Flash CS3 and the lowest save that can go is Flash 8 Which is like...one or two version/s above MX |D;

Darqx In reply to cartoonist001 [2009-09-29 02:54:31 +0000 UTC]

Nope, Flash files (.fla) need to be opened with Flash.
Photoshop doesn't support that file format.
