Hello all, i have an XML doc that has a couple tags with CDATA text nodes in it that contain an object structure in the form of

I've been trying for a few days to do a search for this but flashkit's search page is jacked, whats up with that?

Heres what i'm trying to do, i have a bunch of thumbnails that lay out into your...

Wouldn't blast people that homebrew thier own code too much. Saves a lot of time trying to find answers to poorly documented components not to mention file size reduction. When you need a kitchen...

Sadly i couldn't convince the company to avoid the upgrade urge and they upgraded all boxes to MX2004, so now i've got a bunch of swf apps that used to work in 6 that now don't work for a variety of...

use an if statement to check if the movie is playing or not before sending the pause command on the website link button.

Cool animations but its one of those sites that frustrates you in having to 1, wait and see what happens when you hit the power button, 2 realize that nothing is happening and it probably requires...

annexion, caliber...funny...if someone keeps releasing an app with thousands of bugs, the caliber goes down, period.
as far as bugs, yes it nice that you found one and they solved...

yes, in the authoring environment there are several usability bugs.

i'm not saying that they WILL kill it, but there have been many dramatic changes in regards to the direction...

With macromedias track record getting real cloudy on predictability (thank the new CEO for that). i wouldn't rule out the possibility of them killing AS1 soon. who knows, i'm just glad SVG is finally...

installed update. takes even longer to load now, anchor point issue STILL hasn't been fixed, as well as the other usability issues that arrived with mx 2004.
am i the only one that is laughing...

"doesn't take long to download anyway"

man thats silly. and it takes longer than a minute to download on dialup.

Think of it from a user perspective because ultimately that is who you are...

under MX you hit Ctrl+U and go to the editing tab and select smooth curves off, recognize lines off, recognize shapes off and connect lines must be close. it may be the same in wackmedia flash MX...

what i mean is that you MIGHT have had a perfectly round circle to begin with , but with flash's autoconnect line "feature" it may have pulled that perfect circle out of round to connect those...

are you referring to the inner circle looking a bit warped? its cuz your circle is not perfectly round, its 358.9x365.9.
flash has a preference setting that automatically joins lines that almost...

I guess i'm jumping on this site from a professional rather than artistic POV.
And I suppose that is another subjective point. If the site is cool, is 2megs large BUT streams in a way that you are...

i fell asleep....
way to many stalls points requireing the user to do something, often times, hunting for a freakin hidden button or something. If it wasn't for the site being an 'art' site, it...

Very true, but why even begin to suggest something like that just because there are a lot of ignorant people who don't bother to RTFM? Thats be some dangerous thinking.....

You can do it in regular MX, save your moola, avoid 2004 like the plague =).

Its a pretty simple process of applying streaming video into your layout. use the library panel to create a new Video...

You might be better off with (shiver) a MAC in trying this one, have importing transparent movies into flash on a PC and they didn't seen to work, although it worked fine in MAC. For some reason...

huh? If you open a flash 5 or 6 file in mx2004, and save it back out, the .fla is converted to the 7 format, and the publish settings stay the same. It would be a stupid idea for MM to make the...

yeah i figured asv would eventually find a way around it. you probably still can't tell completely what the actions do with respect to the rest of the movie though. Its funny how much time and energy...

genable also has an obfuscator that prevents most decompilers from snagging your work. It works on MX files but not 2004 files. You do have to test it on your files before running it into production...

Another thing that 2004 has a real problem with is remembering settings for petes sake..Anytime you open the program up, most of the panel settings stay in efect, but things like snap preferences...

heres a q for mike, why in the hell did they change the whole scaling interface for mx2004?
it used to be that regardless of the object being manipulated, the registration point(the objects 0,0...

I was foolish enough to have purchased 2004....Now i want my moola back.

Does Macro.. run ANY usability tests on thier interfaces before sending things out?

Do something as simple as this, use...
