Ah nevermind, I got it to work by selecting all the frames in all the layers and doing Copy Frames - NOT Select all Frames.

Then going to my movie and Paste.

Hey all :)

Say, I'm busily trying to finish this webpage for work.
Part of the page is a photo album type of deal where you use buttons to go from photo to photo. The one i did is a bit basic, so...

Update:

I seem to have somehow got it pasting in Flash with some kinds of text, but still no import.
It's going to be a loonnngg day..lol

Yes, I click on the 'A' for the type tool - the text box opens, but whe nI cut and paste into it, nothing happens. No text appears at all.
Even if I type 4 words into notepad and cut, nothing...

Hey,

I'm having a problem at work.
The boss is wanting me to design a webpage and has given me the relevant text and pictures, but for some reason Flash MX won't import the text or even paste...

Cadence, I seem to be having trouble getting into the site some days (like today).
Is there a load on the server? I know we do have over 3000 members :)

Maybe if everyone wiped off their old U2U...

A few people use the following trick -

Say your email address is bill@hotmail.com.
Some people put bill_RemoveThisToEmailMe_@hotmail.com on their page, with a little note also on the same page...

A splash page can be the first thing the viewer sees when they go to your page. Usually it's just a big picture with nothing else, and a text that says 'Click here to Enter Site'. Of course, a lot of...

'Storing the HTML in SWISH'?
Hmmmm, well, HTML in a site loads almost instantly, so it'really the images you want to preload.
And you want the SWiSH movie to play while this happens?
I'm not quite...

Well, you can do an If Frame Loaded action and check to see if the last frame of the last scene is loaded. The movie won't play till then etc..

Also check out Cadence's preloaders at...

Er...
Not sure I see the point? I have used Inline frames on html pages before....where does SWiSH or swf's come into it?
I didn't see any Flash stuff on the example pages..
Maybe because I am...

Ok, you have to read the SWiSHZone tutorial thoroughly for this, but essentially....

You have your main planet (the big one) around which stuff is going to orbit. We'll make it the moon going...

Perhaps V2F saves in a Flash 4 format?
Maybe they will address the issue in the next version of SWiSH.

Fletch

I don't know too much about this, but maybe it's something to do with the Flash swf being exported as Flash 6 format, and SWiSH not being able to read it because SWiSH only works in Flash 4 format?

Drats, wcoleman got in before me.....post wasn't there when I previewed.....lol

Looked at the skeleton page, narcisse - kinda creeps me out though.....lol
I think I kinda know what you mean...kind of a ripply floaty type of thing...try Pla$tiks 'wobble' example here-

Well, I suggest having a good look at the Corel manual...
Most programs that can save as gif have some sort of setting where you set the transparent 'color'. On some it's an eyedropper which you...

As you can see from the example, you can give the illusion of 'hovering' or 'floating' objects by using a drop shadow. The further away the shadow is, the 'higher' the object seems to be. It's good...

I have never used Corel, but if you want a transparent background, you'll have to save your logo as a gif. Corel probably has a drop down menu thing for file type at the time where you save the file....

Windowman, did you import the animated gif into a sprite as SWiSH asks when importing? It still plays 'forward' though, doesn't it?

I tried this yesterday, and yes, it does look like the frames...

Windowman, if you're only going to be doing this once, etc, then I would download the Flash MX demo and convert the avi to swf with it. Flash is fully functional for 30 days, no? At least I think it...
