ActionScript 1/2 :: Change Contents Of Movie Clip After Releasing Button?
Mar 30, 2009
Ok, so I'm trying to accomplish a seemingly simple task. I have a gallery set up for a website, where if a thumbnail is clicked, a larger version appears on a display. I can't use external swf files because it doesnt add itself to th get BytesTotal, so the loading bar wouldnt include it loading those external swfs. There is a pause before the picture actually loads (I want it preloaded).
Now I have the movie clips i want to exchange in my library, but dont know hwo to get them to become the on-screen movieclip. I have an on(release) function with _root.screen = 'mc_clip1'; is that not the right syntax? is there a better way to load mc's from the library?

I have a movie clip loaded on the stage.
The stage loops through a few clips so this one gets removed and added to the stage again and again by itself. How can I modify the contents of it on each loop iteration?[code]...

This actionscript 3 stuff is giving me trouble with the easiest functions. I was able to get a movie clip to play by clicking on a button, but now I am having trouble with the close button. Basically, I just need the movie clip (box1) to go back to frame number one when the user clicks on the "X". I set up the button the same way as I did the pop-up box:

I have a movie clip (scrollBar) in my site that contains a line of other movie clips moving across the stage (scrollContent1-4). Only two of these are visible at a time, so I have lined them all up, repeated the first two at the end, and have the animation looping.
I want each of the scrollContent1-4 clips to be clickable. It's all fine on the first loop, but once the clip reaches the end and returns to frame 1 the clips are no longer clickable.

I have followed the XML Video tutorial and everything works fine however Lee says you can use a movie clip to display the contents of the XML file instead of one of Flash's built in components. Is there a way to create your own drop down menu or simple text field?

I have set a movie clip with instance name if "body" to resize automatically based on the size of the browser window using:
body._x = Stage.width / 2;
body._y = Stage.height - 44;
body._height = Stage.height - 149;
body._width = Stage.width-20;
(that code may not actually have any relevance?)
What I'm wanting to happen is that when the "body" movie clip changes size, I want the objects within it to be scaled proportionally (keeping the x:y ratio the same). The result that I'm wanting will result in the contents (as a whole) being proportionally scaled to the height (because it will always be the smaller dimension in my case) of the current size of the body mc.
I've uploaded my .fla so you can see what im working with. The red square is the body that i've managed to scale but I have not yet added anything within it. (I have tried but it's contents distort when the body is resized)

I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.

I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true;
}
on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.

I am trying to move a movie clip containing content via AS3 tween with a button outside of the movie clip. I have achieved this effect on another project by using the following code:
Actionscript Code:
var myxTween:Tween=new Tween(content_mc,"x",Regular.easeOut,content_mc.x,theXPosition,.8,true);
I set up a moveContent funtion using that tween, then used:
Actionscript Code:
content_mc.aboutBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutClick);function aboutClick(e:MouseEvent):void { trace("aboutClick");current_btn=e.currentTarget.name; moveContent(588,-538,"about.swf");}
to move the content. I am just wondering how to achieve the same effect but use a button on a separate layer that will be static.

I have a looping movie clip and want it to speed up when the mouse rolls over one of the ends. Is there and action script that will do this? Or a different way to get it done? I faked it by making two movies with different number of frames but when you load that movie it starts over and it looks stupid. I have the scrolling animation on the site but want to put that effect on it. Click the first box after the intro to see the animation at the bottom(line of trucks) http:[url].....

I have a movie clip to display a clock and a datagrid for showing my schedule. I want my flash to alarm with sound when the time from the clock match one time on the schedule. Here is my actionscript:
Code:
clock_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_root.timer[i]==_root.clock_mc.clock_txt.text.substr(0,5)) {
alertSound = new Sound(alertSoundMc);
[Code]....
As you can see, I use onEnterFrame to listen and check matching between time on clock and schedule but it will check all the time and when it alarmed it produced sound all the time while the time is matched. I would like my flash to alarm only one or few times.

I created a button with some roll over effects added some load movie action to load external movie.swf file, everything works perfect except I need about 12 same buttons but with different loadMovie command I mean to load different swf files. so what I did to make it fast I copied the first button and pasted it 12 times so I made 12 nice buttons, but the problem I have is that when I change button 2 load movie settings it automatically changes every button, so I am a little frustrated,

I want to have my character walk around in a faux 3-d space using the arrow keys on the keyboard. When the character walks away it becomes smaller and when it walks closer it becomes larger. I have put together a script that pretty much does what I want - except the ratio of the height and width of the MovieClip do not stay the same. It becomes fatter as it walks away and skinner as it comes closer. Here is my main script:
[Code]...
I think the problem is with the operator here: ratio = this._height/this._width; The slash between "height" and "this" seems to be what is giving me trouble. Maybe I should be writing some other script entirely? I am not very good at script writing.

i'm trying to replace text in a dynamic text field within a movie clip, and it seems as if it's treating it like static text.
theBtn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, adjustText1);theBtn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, adjustText2);function adjustText1(e:MouseEvent):void{ textField1.text = "Foo"; // this works}function adjustText2(e:MouseEvent):void{ theMC.getChildByName("textField2").text = "Bar"; // this doesn't}
It throws this error:

I have movie clips which I made act as buttons, (Previous, Pause/Play, Next).[code]...
The button is a non-filled circle with the proper symbol in the center.
I am going to add themes to my application, where people can choose a pre-selected theme, which will load all info through a xml file (background-image, button colors, scrubber colors, etc).
How would I change the colors of the buttons in my movie clip? They are pre drawn images, that are stored in my library.
