bitmaps... 2006-09-24 11:50:13 Reply

I have about 70 jpg files in one folder that fit together as an animation. They're names are all in the same format of Frame#.jpeg replacing # with the frame number. They are all in order. How can I import these frames into flash nto a movie clip? I don't want to have to manually put each image file into a new frame. When importing to the library, it just brought each one into the library and made no movie clip.

Hahah... you know? I just told someone to do what you have done so far...
Well listen you can use graphic but you will have to put all the pictures in it
and then change the frames (single frame option)

Good Luck!

1) Create a new movieclip, and click the first frame of it. File>Import>Import to Library...

2) Find the first file of your movie.

3) Flash should now ask if this is the first file in a squence of files, and how you'd like to import it. Say to import them all.

4) It should now lay each file out on a seperate frame of that movieclip.

... i want to have the animation of the bitmaps but not have to put each one into a frame, i just want to import the images and have them put into a graphic or movie clip or whatever in order of their names with 1 per frame in order. basically, i want to make an animation and i have each frame needed but i need to stitch them together but dont want to do each one manually.

THANK YOU!! I knew of that prompt but I thought I had to select them all, I didn't know I had to just select the first one..

Bah, sorry, it doesn't work on Import to Library. Import to Stage is more like it :). I just tested it out on a file that starts with frame1.jpg, and it works.
