Rob

Can you elaborate on this further please?

I am working on an iPad only app using Flash CS5.5 and the client has asked
if the app could load in animated graphs. I initially thought this would be
easy loading in a swf but then discovered that not even a stop action was
possible.

It sounds like you may have an alternative solution so would be interested
to know more.

Thanks

Paul

Hi,

You can load swfs into the app BUT the swfs can not contain any action
script in them. This includes giving class names to items in your library or
even simple "stop()" commands.

We use swfs as external libraries in our as3 built apps but our approach has
been to put items on the stage and name those instances (which you can do
with imported swfs). Then use getChildByName to extract the instances we
need.

You definitely need to use Apple's philosophy and "Think Different" but it
does work.

cheers,

Rob
