I am loading an external swf into the mc 'image' using: image.loadMovieNum("portfolio/100_design/1.swf", 1);
Every time a new image loads, I want it to load the level above, ie: image.loadMovieNum("portfolio/100_design/1.swf", 2); Is there a way this can be done dynamically. For example, "current level + 1"
how I can center a swf, when I load it into a _level?
View 1 Repliesi read about the tutorial on loading external swf into levels. I have the following codes in Layer Frame 1:
Code:
loadMovieNum ("World.swf", 1);
_level1.gotoAndStop(2);
stop();
When i execute this code, world.swf is loaded, but i cannot get it to go to frame 2, and even if i use _level1.stop(); or _level1.trace("HI");,
Firstly can I apologise if I'm asking something completely obvious... it driving me crazy.
I have an swf called "branding.swf" which has a movieclip (movie_mc) and a button (save_btn)
Once you press save_btn it loads another swf "summary.swf" which also has a movieclip "form_mc". Within "form_mc" there is another movieclip "loader_mc" and some dynamic text fields.
All this happens within a standalone exe "main.exe" and is loaded into "clips_mc)
Is it possible (surely it must be) to take the contents of movie_mc and display it within "loader_mc".
Basically, I want to do a loadMovie but instead of calling "branding.swf" I want it to only load "movie_mc" which is within "branding_swf"
I am trying to load an external swf at a specific x& y pos. from a button. This is the code I am using :
on (release) {gotoAndPlay(4);loadMovie("gallery.swf",1); xpos="7", ypos="119";
}
The movie loads fine if I remove xpos="7", ypos="119";How do I get it to load at that specific position?
hey there I posted several strings before and no response

I am using Flash CS3, Actionscript 2.
I need to load an external movie file into the root of my main movie, so it replaces the main movie, and when it loads, it loads at a specific frame (or label)of that newly loaded movie.
Explanation: My main movie, lets call it "Main.swf", has a button which is part of a drop down (tree) list. When you click on the button, I want to load my second movie called "bearings.swf", and to immediately go to frame #2 of the "bearings.swf" movie.
The title of my main file is "Gabriel96.fla". Inside this file I have a movie clip called "home movie". Inside this movie clip i have a button called "Symbol 32". Once this button gets clicked, I'd like it to go to frame "joe" which is inside a movie clip called "porrtfolio", which inside a separate file called "portfolio55.swf".
View 4 RepliesI'm actually creating a pretty simple banner that needs to stay under 40k size. I'm trying to load and unload an external .swf to my main swf file. So far, I only managed to load my external .swf, without finding a way to make it appear and disappear at specific frames (the external .swf shows up directly at frame 1, then when the animation loops over, it stacks over and over).
I read some things about onEnterFrame and counters but still wasn't able to solve my issue.
Here's my actual code. It makes the "horse.swf" file (located in the same folder as my main swf) fades in into my main swf after it has been loaded.
By the way, I used The LoaderMax system from greensock. because it seemed lighter and easier to manage than the native Adobe Loader one.
Code:
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.loading.*;
import com.greensock.events.LoaderEvent;

Does someone have a working fla to illustrate how to load an external movie and zoom and pan to specific location of this movie (with easing)? With actionscript, not necessarily with a control for the user. I am looking for it for some time and unfortunately my programming abilities are not yet sufficient to find it out from scratch (but I am working on it).
View 2 RepliesBasically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:
Code:
//About Us Button

View 4 RepliesLoading Images in _levels via loadClip. Now i want 2 buttons on TOP of the Images. So first tried attachMovie _level 200. Did't work (don't ask me why since all logic says it should. but I'm guessing a difference in loading between loadClip & loadMovie). Now made 2 swf files with just the buttons and load via loadClip. Works fine BUT... now I can click then. tried stuff like:
Code:
_level200.button_btn.onRelease,
_level200[button_btn].onRelease, _level200["button_btn"].onRelease, _root[_level200["button_btn"]].onRelease
You get the picture. Any solution to this?
I have a loaded SWF file in _level1 that has audio in the timeline. I am trying to control the volume of this loaded SWF with a 'mute' button in the main SWF file. On the first frame I'm using the code:
my_sound = new Sound(_level1);
and then on the button script I have:
mute_btn.onPress = function(){
my_sound.setVolue(0);//mute volume
}
but it's not working. Is the new Sound(_level1) not valid?

However I am using embedded .swf files, and the scrollable image I want to control is on _level10 (within a master file _level0). I am decent with actionscript and based on tests with the example file, I know the code works. BUT my problem is getting it to function within a different flash level. I'm about 99% sure it isn't working because the code is looking for my movieclips or the scroll function on the main timeline and not that of _level10, but I can't figure out where the code I need to change is. Its driving me crazy.Here's the code (from the above link). This goes into the main timeline, where "area1" is the movieclip you hover over to enable the mousewheel and "mc1" is the mc that is moved by the mousewheel:
Actionscript Code:
// IMPORT import FlashCommon.MouseControl;import mx.utils.Delegate;Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";// ADD SCROLL FOR AREAS - addScroll(id, mc, function)//// adding scroll

why my MC actionscript with loadVariablesNum("submit.php", 0, "POST"); don't wanna work if I loaded into other _level...
If i don't loaded it work well... but not useful
I have loaded as2 swf in as3 using Loader object. Loading is done fine, but the problem is that the as2 swf uses stuff like _root, _level1.. etc. that doesn't work in as3. So is there any way by which I can make as2 swf work properly inside as2? I have bought some readymade as2 swf and need to use them here. I dont have the as2 fla so can't make any changes in them...

View 1 RepliesI have a guestion about preloaders. Every preloader that is available on the web loads the entire .SWF.But I want the preloader to load a specific mc. So that the .SWF will run as soon as that specific mc is loaded.
in addition: Is it possible to have an mc in the .SWF that will only load when the user pushes a button?
for my latest task at work, oh what joy, i have to create a small banner thing which reads data from a text file... BUT... it only reads from the text file IF there is a text file present which i labeled TODAYS date!
Get todays date IF there is a file present in a certain directory which is called todays date.txt (ie. 02042006) then it reads the info in that text file and prints it into a certain area in the flash file. If there is nothing present it just displays the default stuff!!
I made a flash website and had one page load an external swf.
In this external .swf are thumbnails that link to another page (frame) all within the external swf. when you go to these pages there is a 'back' link which links back to the main external swf frame.
My problem is this: let's say i click a thumbnail in the external swf and it goes to the respective thumbnail page, and then i dont click the 'back' button but instead click another link of the main flash website - then i go back to the page that loads the external swf and instead of going to the main frame of the external swf it stays at the page i was previously on.
How do I get the link on the main flash website which loads the external .swf to always load on the first frame of the external swf?[code]...
I have two flash files, say a.swf and b.swf.a.swf is the main swf file, embedded in an HTML page for a webpage. There is a preloader in a.swf too. In b.swf, when I click a specific button I need to load a.swf, but not from the preloader, from the content. To be precise, the content starts from Frame 24 of a.swf (obviously Preloader ends in Frame 23). I believe, the frame 24 has to be loaded in a.swf when I click the button in b.swf.

I have menu.swf which loads an external SWF (longmenu.swf)longmenu.swf has a long background on stage, which scrolls according to what the user clicks. It works fine on it's own with tweenLite. But what i need to do is to have menu.swf controls to which part of the background it scrolls or appears at once an item on menu.swf is clicked.
