# I have a question!


Sorry but it's late and i doubt anyone will mind.
Does anyone know how I could get rid of the obvious white background bits from this flash file im working on?

# If you mean the parts on both sides of your actual canvas, either:
1.) make a new layer above all others and create a frame, covering up anything outside of the canvas (work area, whatever, the white rectangle that you'rw working in)

2.) embed the video in a webpage

3.) use a mask with the exact dimensions of the movie on all layers (may be tricky if you;re already using masks)

4.) profit

# coo...
cheers muchly! I think i'll try for the embedded video approach seeing as tho i don't actually use Macromedia Flash, so i don't know about all them layers and whatnot.

# Whatever software you are using is likely to have a function to export your movie to a webpage,
creating a html file for you with the movie readily embeded.

Otherwise, use something like described on this page:

# you can set background to transparent

# this will only make any parts of the movie transparent that:
- show when the image is embeded
- have no movieclips/images/etc. on them.

Seeing as that all of the movieframe is covered in images and, when embeded, only the movie frame will show, I don't think this is the enwser you're looking for.

It's nice for using Flash animations in layers or otherwise on top of other graphics in a webpage though.
