hi all,
I have Flash 8 and I am tring to see what would be the best way to set up a
background so that it will load a back ground that is not embeded in flash.
like a jpeg file. The goal is to make a generic flash file that the client can
just change this jpeg file and it will automicly change it and add it to the
background of the flash file. this flash file is being use inside different
program and it is being used in a kiosk. I think they are using C++ to program
it. Also is there any way to set the background transparent? If any one has any
good ideas on how to do this or can point me in the right direction that would
be great.

Create a movieclip that is the bottom layer and dynamically load a jpg
into the movie. Google "AS LoadMovie"

Can you use PNG instead of JPEG? Transparency would work better using PNG.

Updater Help

My friend is using VB.net to code a koisk. We would like if possible to be
able to set the background color using the VB.net program. to be able to
change
background to a RGB color using the external program. I do not know Flash
coding, I only know how to do buttons. I am guessing i will need some sort
of
global varible to set this up. Any help would be great

Thanks.


Is he using the Macromedia version of VB.net or the Adobe version?
