Hello to All!

I have a movie that until now has been viewed on CD. I am now in the process of moving it to a website. There are 24 scenes so in order to make loading more managable I have broken...

Thanks Frets,

Are there any new features with the latest build or the beta or are they just bug fixes and stuff? I only ask, because I've been happy with my build - and why fix it if it isn't...

Hi All,

It has been some time since I've had any projects that required the use of Swishmax. Which is actually unusual as there was a time I used it daily. Anyway - I'm back and have several...

Yes - the external file did have a pre-loader. I actually do not need to load the external swf anymore, as my customer has changed his plans. But it is still nice to know what the problem was for...

No, there is no pre-loader yet. Just the one scene.

Hi -

I'm trying to load a movie into a sprite. My main movie is 700 by 500. The movie I'm trying to load is 500 by 120. I created a sprite called "news" The sprite transforms are set to 500 by...

Thanks!

Hi,

Last night I worked on a new movie for around 7 hours. Everything was going pretty well. I went to bed, woke up worked on it for a little bit, and suddenly swish max is crashing every time I...

I am happy to say I have figured out the problem a few of the comments in my text file had "&" and it was stopping at the first one. I'd still love to know how to add a drag bar for the scrolling!

Hi!

I've created an external text scroller. My text document is VERY long. Everything is almost working fine but it gets less then halfway down the document and stops scrolling. I need it to...

Thanks anyway!

Sometimes the answer is so simple you do not even think about it! I though I'd have to do all sorts of scripting I never even though of the obvious easy answer.

Thanks!!!!!

I am creating a rollover where the button moves right and then left again in 40 frames when the mouse rolls over it.

Here is the problem, if you take your mouse off of the button and then happen...

I am creating a form in swishmax. The CGI script I am posting to allows the uploading of files from the visitors hard drive. What is the code to input into swishmax to create the field and the...

Does anyone out there know how I can do this with a dropdown selection list???

Hi!
Thanks for your reply - It is the strangest thing - several months ago I posted that when I use the form in question to post to to a custom cgi script. The form places several blank records on...

I just downloaded the latest build of swishmax and now I have an error in my script that was not there before I downloaded the new build. The error is preventing the form from submitting - and it...

OK, I see how you made the check box, but I'm still a little confused. When I make a simple input text field the name of the field being passed to the script is defined by the text name. So if my...

I have a form I created in swish that is working fine, but I would like to add a new field. I'd perfer this field to be a drop dow list with several selections, or I would settle for radio buttons...

Yes, in the last frame of the time line in the movie you called from the main movie just place an fscommand to load the main movie.

Nope, no dialogue box. I even checked the debug to see why they weren't showing up. I've already removed all my masks and changed the effects in the sprites so I wouldn't need the masks and it...

OK -
If your movies are loading automatically what you want to do is go to the frame where you want the new swf file to load. and use the following:

onFrame (1) {
...

If you are indicating that all your files are internal you shouldn't have to worry about setting a base directory. This is the fscommand I use to call internal movies then swf studio does the work ...

As long as we are on the subject _sans is a device font that can be used with out having to be installed on the viewers computer isn't it???

Thanks!

That was my problem it was masked. I knew you could not add any fancy effects, but I did not know it couldn't be masked! Thanks for the info!
