ActionScript 1/2 :: Attach A Movieclip From The Library So That It Sticks To Another Movieclip?
Aug 15, 2009
Im trying to create an inventory where when you click an object it will automaticly go into your inventory, the inventory is embedded in other movieclips.I have quite a few spaces(movieclips) in the inventory box when it is open but I just need it so when you click an object it attaches to a movieclip in the inventory.I also need it so that if you click a different item it attaches to the next space in the inventory rather than overlapping an item you have clicked before. I would only have only about 15 (or something similar) spaces so if I have clicked 16 items the 16th item cannot go into the inventory.

I've started trying to get into AS2 and all of a sudden, I don't know how to attach a movieclip from a document's library to the stage! The debugger's saying that attachMovie isn't a method. Just to clarify, I have an external as file which is defining a class and in that class, I want to attach a movie from the library to the stage.

When you attach a movieclip taken from the symbol library to the Stage, by using the attachMovie function and its Linkage name, do you have to - previously - place a dummy instance of the mc anywhere on that Stage to get it works ?

I've used MovieClipLoader to load a movieclip into my holder. Everything works out fine, the mc loads and it's all good. But then, inside the loaded mc I use attachMovie to attach a movieclip from the library of the holder. It won't attach, but it will attach if I re-create the specific mc in the loaded mc's library. Does anyone know how to get around this?

point me to anything which will help me dynamically attach movieclips from the library into one main movieclip, which then I can duplicate it many times..You see, what happens with duplicateMovieClip,is that it duplicates the main movieclip itself, without taking its contents..I want to take the contents too. The only way I can imagine this could work, was if I could take a 'snapshot' of the movieclip and keep it as a bitmap, from which this could be duplicated - because I dont need the movieclip and its contents to contain code or have any animation playing. I just want it as an image, so I can create a pattern from..

Code:
function myFunction(myMC) {
myMC.attachMovie(myMC, myMC, getNextHighestDepth());
}
myFunction(test); I want this to attach a MC from my library called "test" to a movieclip holder called "test" on the canvas and have it named test. In the end, the instance path would be _root.test.test.
The problem is myMC (the one right after the first parenthesis) is not populating correctly because it is not being read by Flash properly. The typeof myMC is movieclip. I can String(myMC), but still no hope. How do I get this done?

I am making a site and have a component on the stage that is put there dynamicly through AS 2.0. When I F5 or Ctrl F5 it seems that the actionscript is read allover again?Only the script that is situated in the specific label. What if I have script in that label that creates a news reader. I f12 and the news reader is there I jump to another label with the menu. when i jump back to the home label the news reader does not appear on the stage. after a f5 or ctrl f5 it does.Do I have to attach the movieClip in each label to assure a the dynm-movieClip script is on stage for the ctrl f5 issue?

A can't seem to get this creating movieclip thing, or attach movieclip. What I want is when a certain button is pressed, a MC in the library is created on the work area, at the mouse location and will continue to follow the mouse untill it is clicked. Once clicked, it stops dragging, but if clicked again, another MC on the screen will gotoAndStop(2); and so on. I have most of the script idea down. But I can't seem to get the create new MC to work.

I'm trying to use attachMovie to attach a movieclip to another movieclip. Both the movieclips are set up as buttons (ie. they have _up, _over, _down, _hit states). The problem is if I define event handlers for both mcs, only the event handler on the parent clip works.
myBtn is already on the stage:
myBtn.onRollOver = function():Void { this.attachMovie("pageButton","chldBtn",1); this.onPress = function():Void { trace("parent"); //works }; this.chldBtn.onRelease = function():Void { trace("attached Movie"); // doesn't work };};
I've tried 'delete this.onPress' for the parent mc but this makes no difference.
How can I get the attached mc event handler to work?

First post here. I have a list of images preloaded through an XML file, and in order to store them in my animation, I had to load each of them into a separate MovieClip. Now I want to pick one of them at random, show it onscreen, remove it and show another one, etc. In order to do that, I created an empty MovieClip on the stage and moved it around, giving it the animation I wanted, and now I was wondering how to "attach" one of the image-containing-MovieClips to it, so that it moves along with it.
None of the methods that I've seen in AS 2.0 seem to work. Normally I'd use attachMovie(), but I understand that it only works with MovieClips that are in the Library, while mine are dynamically created from the preloaded images.

I am new to flash and have recently just created a gallery. I have a scrolling gallery with thumbs and then some bigger images on top. What I am having trouble with is I would like to have a button attached to the stage that can be clicked to take you away from the gallery which is all implemented in actionscript 2 via an xml file.How can I attach a button that does that which is visible above the layer of the gallery so it is possible to see it and click it.

i'm making my own combo box based on an array that can change based on a user input variable.i need to find a way to update the dynamically attached mc's based on when that array changes. that or to use a button (as i'm currently using to trigger it) to clear out the clips i'm attaching and attach a new number of clips for the updated(new) array.[code]i should clarify that it's working, but i need the attached clips to reset each time the function occurs because sometimes there'll be less clips attached if the array length is less and right now if the array length is twelve and then it gets changed to 6, there are still 12 clips attached!
