is it possible to keep the loaded movies and then attach them to a mc ?The thing is that I have several external resources to load and I wish to attach them pour MCs along the execution of the movie.
View 2 RepliesI am having problems with attaching multiple instances of the same mc, and tring to get an onMouseDown event for each of them.
The problem is that if I mousedown on one of the attached mc's, then all the attached mc's will trigger the onMouseDown event instead of only the one I clicked on.
the trace returns "onMouseDown called on 1" ...."n" instead of a single trace statement.
code:
function createSlideIcons(num){
var targetMC:MovieClip = this.form1.slideNav.slider;
var spacer = 5;

all it seems to do is writeover every card with the next one so all im left with is the last card of the hand being shown
I have a 1900 x 1240 .swf file that has a set of buttons on each side. Each button calls for and loads a single movie into a 900 x 600 area in the middle of the screen. I haven't had any trouble setting things up so that the .swf movies, including a converted QTVR file, all load into that 900 x 600 area. One of my buttons calls for a .swf movie that contains a zoom-in and rescale - the link for how this was created can be found at Flash Zoom In Movie Clip and Rescale. The stage for this file is set at 900 x 600. When this Zoom.swf is loaded up by pressing the button, it resizes itself to 1900 x 1240. As well as being annoying, this obliterates the view of all my buttons and interface. I just can't figure out how to make it sit in the middle of the screen at a size of 900 x 600.

I'm adding movieclips from an external .as class called GUI. But what I'd like to do is be able to load multiple GUIs - lets say GUI0, GUI1 & GUI2 - through the one class using a dynamic variable. So if I need to load a certain GUI i can just instantiate the GUI class and run newGUI.loadGUI(GUIname); and have it load the correct movieclip based on the variable.So, syntax aside, it would look something like this:
Code:
loadMenu(GUIname) {
GUItoLoad = GUIname;
var mcLoader:GUItoLoad = new GUItoLoad();[code]........
I've tried a few different things syntax wise, and have had a search and browse, but have come up empty handed.

I am trying to attach a movie to the swf when a function gets executed. Everything in the function except this is fine, but the movie is not attached. I used this line to attach the movie.
Code:
_root.attachMovie(loader,loader,depth - 1,{_x:(stage._width / 2), _y:(stage._height / 2)});
Here, loader is a variable containing the movie's name which is to be loaded. I tried writing the movie's mane instead of loader but still no luck.

I Have been using Kirupa for a while now, an excellent resource!! but have only just joined the forum. I have had a look at various Flash tutorials provided on the site but cant seem to find quite what I am after. I have a contact form on a site I am making and I want to be able to browse and add an attachment. I see Kirupa provides a tutorial on contact forms and one on uploading files to a server with flash but unless I am mistaken not a contact form with an attach facility? I would like the attachment to be send directly to the e-mail address along with the other information. I am using CS3 but have published the swf with AS2.0 The site is [URL] if you need to see what I'm talking about to make it clearer - once there click on contact
View 3 RepliesI have a website that contains an INTRO and OUTRO animation.. The main movie has an intro animation and depends which item of menu is clicked it runs an "outro" animation then it loads the external MOVIE. On this external Movie I have a close button that closes the external movie, check this:
Code:
Select allremoveMC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeMovie);
function removeMovie (e:MouseEvent) {
this.parent.parent.removeChild(this.parent);
}
How do I replay the intro animation from MAIN movie Clip after the external movie is Removed?
I am having trouble making 2 movies communicate with one another. One movie (series) is embedded into the other (content2). 'content2' is a horizontal scroll menu of images. 'series' is a movie that holds 'content2' and contains a mask which will reveal everything upon the rollover of the 'series' button. I can get the scroll to show and work when the button is rolled over but it fails to hide on roll out.
Here is the code I have used on the roll over button called 'series':
Code:
stop(); // stop the movie clip from playing (stop button from growing, we want that when the mouse rolls over only
sym2.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){ //if rewind switch is set to true play backwards
prevFrame(); // play backwards

how to do a search function accross multimple swf movies in a cd rom. The situation is like this: i m making an elearning project where i have around 17 to 18 chapters. Now, all the chapters are in flash and they are seperate movies. Now, if someone wants to search for something inside the cd, like say, they are searching for "entertica" then all the pages that is related to that word should show up.. like google search.
View 2 RepliesI've had to create the following code to get a series if loading movies to work properly. Each loaded movie is basically a series of automatically looping images controlled by external xml. I found that without adding the unload movie on each button action the first movie loaded kept playing over any subsequent movies loaded. However its rather long winded and if the amount of movies increase it really is going to be very large. How to create an efficient funtion that does the job in a more effective way:
intro_mc.onRelease = function() {
unloadMovie ("_root.container02");
unloadMovie ("_root.container03");
unloadMovie ("_root.container04");
createEmptyMovieClip("container01", 2);
loadMovie("deaf_intro.swf", "container01");

why this code dosent work at the same time in the timeline, and why only envent put inside the attacHMovies or duplicated Movies work, if i put them in the forr loops they dont work.

I have an intro.swf file that is basically a movie with sound that is exported for actionscript but not exported in the first frame. I just stuck it in a movie on my timeline and it works great and the preloader works because it doesn't load the sound before the preloader. I use :
musicSound = new Sound();
musicSound.attachSound("music");
musicSound.start();
to play the sound in intro.swf.
However, now this intro.swf gets loaded into an index.swf and everything works fine and the sound plays as long as I have the sound included in BOTH the intro.swf and the index.swf and the sound is exported on the first frame in the index.swf. I was hoping I could remove the sound entirely from my index.swf since it already loads into the intro but so far
I have been having trouble creating a movie clip with a reverse rollover effect within a movie which has a reverse rollover effect. that sounds confusing
In essence I wish to create a panel that rolls out on rollover and rolls back in reverse when the you rollout. I have done this using this script
[Code]...
However I wish to make movies within this movie that have the same effect on them. But when I create another movie or button within this movie it is not registering on rollover. I guess because the script on the main movie overrides it?
I am creating a calendar and only one part isnt work. That part is the movie (mc_nav). I have the mc_nav movie on each month's stage. The buttons are named correctly since I used normal modes reference thingy to double check the references. I am trying to have it move to the next frame in the movie, or back, or to the 3rd frame etc. The first section (NAVIGATION BUTTON LINKS) works fine. It is just when I try to navigate on the Scene 1 stage, from a movie within a movie, that the trouble arises. Each of the month movies (mc_sep, mc_oct, etc) have mc_nav placed on them. Then the month movies are placed in Scene 1 on each of their respective frames (mc_sep = 4, mc_oct = 5, etc). When testing the movie and I am sent to any month page, the navigation (mc_nav) wont work. The syntax according to the flash debugger is correct. The action script goes all the way through to the last frame (13) and the stop(); command is set to stop the movie at frame 3 (the splash page).
