Does Flash Pro support exporting projects to Android Daydream?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 31 Oct 2014 18:35:03 GMT

I've built an app for the Android platform, but I'd like to create a daydream app (Android screensaver).

Does the Publish settings support this? Any tutorials on this anywhere?

Thanks,

Greg

How do I adjust a symbol's scale using code?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 20 Nov 2013 07:38:49 GMT

I've dynamically placed a symbol on the stage at runtime. Per user input, I'd like to adjust the scale, position, etc. of this symbol (which is just a white sphere that bounces on using the animation in it's own timeline).

How do I address scale, position, opacity, etc. attributes of my symbol via the code, and where can I find a good, solid reference on syntax? I keep bouncing into jquery libraries, which I don't yet really understand how to implement. I'm missing that reference manual that defines all the functions we have at our disposal.

Thanks for any input.

Warning: Cache size set too large?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 25 Mar 2013 22:37:09 GMT

I've recently installed a SSD to work as a dedicated cache drive, and I've directed the 3 cache settings in AE (CS6) to it.

The drive is 240GB, but I can't put the cache size over 150GB without getting a warning that it's set too high. Is this true? Am I wasting almost 100GB?

Dynamic Link Error- server busy

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 23:26:42 GMT

I'm getting this error right out of the gate trying to import PPro into AE.

I'm using my existing copy of AE, but PPro from my new Production Bundle. Could this cause a problem?

Do I need to somehow swap my serials for my two versions of AE?

I've heard rumor there is a tech doc that addresses this somewhere. Can someone point me to it?

Thanks,

Greg

Question about "this". Scope problem?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 21:28:24 GMT

Hi there. I don't understand what's not working correctly when I try to dynamically call a movie clip from a function. For example, this doesn't work: (see first attached code).

I'm guessing the "this" in the call to play is getting stuck referring to the function, instead of the timeline. But it works if I have a leading _mc in the call, such as
graphics["b"+count].gotoAndPlay("intro");

How do I refer to the timeline where this code is by using [ ] ? Should I be using eval instead? Should I always send out to a new function? What's the best practice?

I've figured out workarounds, like calling a new function and passing the reference (see second code block), but I'd like to know if there's a best way to do this.

Thanks for the help,

CS3 Video Encoder not as good as FLIX?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 03 Feb 2008 21:50:11 GMT

I had the disturbing experience yesterday of having to ask my client to encode their own flv for me to use. They had given me a QT file, which for whatever reason, had a glitch in it that prevented it from properly encoding on my stock CS3 video encoder software. They don't have Flash, and are on a PC (I'm mac). They encoded it using their Flix encoder, and talked about the newest version ("S" or something like that). Case in point, their flv worked and mine didn't. (Mine was playing fine, but something in the metadata was getting goofed and not throwing an end-of-file status flag for me to capture. So, I couldn't get the program to automatically close the video and move on.) I checked for an update to my CS3 encoder, which simply took me to the basic "Adobe software update" software, which suggested a few other updates that I'm assuming are irrelevant to Flash. (Reader, Version Cue, Bridge, StartMeeting, After Effects).

So, my lengthy intro leads me to the question, "Is my stock CS3 flv encoder not the best thing for encoding (On2).?"
Is there an update or better solution I'm not aware of?

Thanks,
Greg
