Title: Flash is f-ing around with me
Post by: Fountain on January 21, 2010, 07:24:55 PM
Flash is F-ing around with me again. I drag a symbol named, "Police Car" onto the stage. It gives me the "there is already a symbol that exists in this document" thing. It doesn't do that when you drag a SYMBOL onto the stage. So I just clicked OK.
 
Next, I go back a few frames and everything SEEMS okay. But it's not. There is a background that is perfectly fine. But when I test the scene, it is replaced with the "Police Car" symbol.
 
How could it possibly overwrite that background? It's not like the background was named, "Police Car" or something like that.
 
So I'm asking YOU, Clock Crew, how can I fix this?

Were you dropping it into a frame that has a motion tween assigned to it?
 
If not, Flash hates you.

No. Apparently Flash hates me. By the way, I submitted my next masterpiece already.

If you are dragging it from a different flash and they were originally named the same thing (like Symbol1) and then you changed the name of the symbols so they weren't the same flash for some reason still stores them as the original name or some shit. I don't know messed me around a bit for awhile to.

Either try saving both flashes, closing flash and reopening and trying again after the names have been changed or if that doesn't work drag the object from the flash it is in into a new blank document then copy paste from that document into the one you want it in.

when making symbols

name them

190jajgjjjjjjakkkkaagggg

even then, you sometimes get "190jajgjjjjjjakkkkaagggg is already a symbol name, please choose another"
point being. Symbols are not hard
if all else fails, open symbol, copy all layers, create a new symbol names anusrape, paste them anew and tada you got a new symbol with all shit includeddd

d
I mightve had stwrognm thjought entirely but if so I do not knnow, if anything this should be in the flash forum not in the general.

btw Dave cucllerir and Fountain, I got meine eyes on you. I see what yer doing

Good idea! I did that with the pilot episode :) So I will need to do it with this one.
 
And what is it we're doing?

On the book that are tilted on the bookshelves, you should first of all draw a rotated rectangle, not a weird rhombus, and second of all draw them short enough so that they would still fit in the bookshelf if they were upright. These are both most easily done of course by actually drawing a rectangle with the rectangle tool and rotating it.

You should stop your terrible, terrible music at the end of the movie. You can either set it to stream instead of event, or to start, and then have a stop frame at the end set on the same audio.

Also that was the worst flash ever good job.

You probably have a symbol inside of "police car" with a name like symbol 1 or tween 1 or something.

And say fuck, for fuck's sake.
