Embedded assets

[sambo]

Hi,

I am using Flash 9 IDE to create assets for Actionscript projects that I build in Flex Builder 2. I am not creating Flex applications - just plain Actionscript projects. I am able to embed assets easily like this:



[Embed(source="embedded_assets/Library.swf", symbol="Plotter")]
private var Plotter:Class;




And I can add the "Plotter" symbol from the library to the display list.

What is not working is stop(); actions in the Plotter symbol. Plotter is an animated symbol that has a stop(); action on the last frame. That actions is simply ignored.

I read somewhere that Flex Builder stripped out timeline code from embedded assets. Is that correct?

try this.stop();

Thanks,

however, that did not help :(

What does it give when you put trace(this); in one of the frames?

Hi,

it doesn't trace. That is because the compiler strippes out all code as I read about in an article on this page:

Check the Flash 9 button in Flex article.

Thanks anyway.
