Hi nrajbhan! Thank you for your help.

I found this problem using custom components. At first I've thought that it's my faute.

But then I tried to test standard flash components. The same result.

example

Hi Nivesh!

- "Are you using a localized version of Flash?  If so, which locale?"

- en_US

- "Do you use an Input Method Editor (IME)?  If so, which IME do you use and with what settings?"

- No, I don't

- "Also, are you on MAC or WIN?"

- Windows XP ( SP3 )

-"Do you have an older version of Flash on the same machines?  If so, when you save this FLA as a previous version and Test Movie using that version, do you still get 0/null or the correct values?"

- Yes, I have Flas CS4 as well. I did some tests and here is the result:

Flash CS5. Drag to stage NumericStepper. Set maximum = 100. Test this movie : maximum = 0. Save this fla as a previous version.

Flash CS4. Open this fla. Test this movie. maximum = 0. Goto the component inspector and look for the maximum values. Attention! maximum = 100,00 ( not 100, not 100.00, not 0 ) Set maximum = 100.5 and test . Result : maximum = 100.5. Save this fla. ( By the way, if I do "Save and compact" then I see  "Filed to open document" pop up )

Flas CS5. Open our file. Goto the component parameters and see (Attention!) maximum = 100,5 ( not 100.5 ). Test the movie. Result : (Attention!) maximum = 50. Set maximum = 100.55 and press Enter. (Attention!) this value is replaced by 100,55. Test movie and see maximum = 55.

So I guess it can help you to detect the problem.

Hi Nivesh!

"What language version is your OS?"

- Russian

Hi,

I can reproduce it when changing locales too.  It looks like the Components Parameters section has an implicit precision level of 2 decimal digits even if it doesn't display it.  That's causing numeric values to get converted to include ',' behind the scenes, causing the components to fail.

On Windows, you can work around this by changing your locale's number format to use '.' instead of ',':

Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options -> Regional Options -> Customize... button next to your locale -> Numbers tab -> Change Decimal symbol from ',' to '.'

On Mac, it's a bit more complicated.  I found that solution 4 on this site works - http://www.macfreek.nl/mindmaster/Decimal_Seperator_in_Mac_OS_X#Soluti on_4:_Manually_change_the_settings_in_the_preference_files

Thanks for helping us narrow down the issue.

Hi,

I have this issue too, with custom components too.

Basically :

- You can only enter Number with 2 digits max in a Number component parameters field

- '.' are replaced with ','

- If you enter an integer, it returns 0

- If you enter 12.1, it returns 10

- If you enter 12.26 it returns 26

So, in the end, I suppose that Flash CS5 returns the 2 digits of a Number component field and returns it.

Do you know if that issue will be fix soon?

Thanks.

My configuration :

Web Premium CS5 FR, Flash CS5 Pro FR, WIN XP SP3 FR

Hi,

If your OS is set to a locale to follow regional settings for date, time, currency, numbers, etc. then you should use the same format when entering numeric values.  Instead of using '.' for decimal, you should use ',' since that's what you have specified on your OS.

You can also change your locale to follow English/US conventions or to change just the numeric standard by following the steps I posted above.

However, there is still an issue that saving these files as CS4 versions should convert the ',' back to '.' in the CS4 version since CS4 does not respect locale/regional settings.

Thanks,

Nivesh

I cannot set the stepsize of numeric steppers to float values..that's really a problem for me and neither "," or "." won't work.

Setting windows to use "." instead of "," won't work either. (ITA xpsp3)

Adobe ??

UPDATE:I had to delete NumericStepper component from the library and using a new one from the component list. I had to change windows "," to "."

btw it should be fixed asap.
