Thanks, YBAB. Sounds like I may need to get a new computer with
Windows 7 and get 8 or 16 gb or ram.

YBAB, when you say '3 to 4 active' does that mean 3 to 4 gb of ram.
By the way, I'm using Windows XP.

Thanks YBAB. I have 2gb of Ram. I cleared my memory but that didn't help.
Could you tell me the steps you used to export the 8000 by 8000 image? And how much ram you have and your OS?
Thanks again.

Thanks for doing a test nomanzia26; I don't have mx2004, only CS3 and CS5. And I've tried repeatedly to export a bitmap image larger than about 4100 x 4100 and I can't do it. I have a friend who got...

I need to export large bitmaps from Flash CS3 and CS5. I'm finding that about 4120 x 4120 pixels is the largest bitmap I can export. If I try to go bigger, Flash clips off the bottom and right...

The way I've worked around this problem is:
Instead of exporting as QT, export as a series of JPGs (set to highest quality), or similar.
Then import those into a video editing program (we use...

We've had two problems repeatedly over the last several months in Flash 8:
1] We select a vector point in an image on one layer, then use the arrow key on keyboard to shift that point. This causes...

What are the pros and cons of using SWFObject versus Flash 8's built-in flash detection?
Thanks...

Thanks; this is great

I need to test performance on older Flash Players, specifically Flash 6. so I need to download Flash Player 6, but I don't know where to find it.
Anyone know?
Thanks

Corrected code:

How do you access a movie clip that's inside a scrollPane component? I'm not having any luck; I guess it's because the movie clip is not actually nested inside the scrollPane component, but is just...

Anyone know a way to make a movie clip gradually fade-out with actionscript using _alpha?
I'm using flash 8. Thanks

I figured out how to do this:

I attached this actionScript to the instance of the scrollpane:

Thanks, Madzigian

Here's what I ended up doing which worked great:

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {...

I've looked into this further and I see in Flash 8 help that the border of all components uses the RectBorder class; that class has four standard display styles, one if which is 'none'. It sounds...

I'm trying to create a custom scoll bar in Flash 8. I made a copy of the HaloTheme.fla and renamed it. Then I've gone into that and changed colors, sizes etc of various VScrollbar assets. I've had...

I'm creating a website that contains html and a flash SWF. The flash SWF is in an html table. The table will expand and contract as the browser is resized.

I created a new, empty FLA - 21 kb. Left it open, then opened another FLA - 3010 kb; it contains a symbol with all the animation for that FLA (about 3 seconds). I tried to drag that symbol from it's...

I have several flash movies that run at different frame rates (30fps and 15fps). I'd like to bring them into one FLA and have them all run at 30 fps without having the 15fps movies play too fast. Is...

I found the way to increase Virtual Memory (System > Advanced > Performance). But I would think this shouldn't be necessary. Seems like 512 mb of ram should be enough.

We're having a similar problem. On a Pent 4 XP pro machine with 512 Mb of Ram and Flash the only app open, we tried to paste about 10 layers of artwork into a new symbol, and got an error message...
