ActionScript 2.0 :: AttachMC Alignment With Another MovieClip
Oct 12, 2007
I need a way to have an attached mc stay aligned with another mc that rotates (for AS 2.0). More specifically, I have a spaceship with several turrets that shoot at intervals, the problem comes when the spaceship rotates; how do I get the bullets (or whatever you want to call them) to appear at the correct x and y values when the spaceship rotates when the ship itself is asymetrical and has a registration point at its tip?

I am loading a MovieClip using MovieClipLoader. When the MovieClip starts playing, it changes the alignment of my stage to LT, which incorrectly repositions all the other objects on my stage.
Is there anyway for me to:
Prevent the MovieClip from changing the alignment of my stage? Adding an event handler to an appropriate event, so that I can reset the stage alignment when it gets changed?
I have already tried resetting the stage alignment on the onLoadInit event of MovieClipLoader and the onEnterFrame event of MovieClip, but both seem to reset the alignment too soon.

I need the flash file aligned centre and middle.
I can easily do this using tables or divs using basic object embed code, BUT the problem is my preloader then doesnt work in IE if i use the basic embed code.
If i want my preloader to work in IE i have to use the publish code generated by flash cs4. The problem is i cannot align the file centre & middle no matter what i try. and tables and divs have no effect on this publish code whatsoever.
you can view source on that page to view the cs4 publish code.

Is there anyway to align imported images automatically to the top left of the stage?
I'm using File, Import, Import to Stage which works great for importing multiple images from a folder BUT if I have resized the stage at all (to fit the image size) they align with their top left corner in the centre of the stage.

Is it possible to control the alignment of images loaded into a UILoader ? My images are loaded in via XML. Most are are the size of the UILoader dimensions 960 x 482, but there are a handful which are portrait format and these are being aligned to the top left of the UILoader. I would like to center these instead.

I am new to Flash but have used Illustrator and InDesign for years. How to set the reference object by which all other objects are aligned; e.g. Illustrator ->select all objects then a second click on the reference object and all other objects take their cue. InDesign you lock the reference object and that determines the rest. In Flash it seems that either both objects move or the one that I wish to remain in position jumps rather than the other way around.

I keep asking myself why Flash is so simple when it comes to text layout and finally today I was thinking that that really can't be, considering Flash is meant to layout text in web sites. In my text field, I am looking to create a half return, so if I want space between two paragraphs, I don't have to use an empty return each time. Kind of like p padding in css. I also want to create a tab order in my text field, for better alignment of information. I am looking to create the look of two columns, where I have a date with a paragraph associated with it, with the paragraph being more then one line of the date, but staying indented. Lastly, and I am assuming this is a given, I would like the text to come from a xml or html file.

I am currently trying to figure out a circular alignment problem. so if you look at the following code, it works perfect without the positioning section. All the data is being loaded from a database and when the user clicks on the mc which houses this code in its second frame, it accesses the database and if there are more rows in the database whose owner column matches the name of the clip it will add more circles to the stage and then use other data received from the database to edit it such as its colour. But what I am also trying to do is align the newly added circles in a circular pattern around the mc (when clicked the mc will be centred on the stage.

I have a movie where the user is able to type text into an input text field. The textfield itself is set to be left-aligned, but I provide the users with 2 buttons for alignment... left-align and center-align buttons. I have it so that if they click on one of the buttons, it sets a variable that stores the alignment with the one desired, and then calls a function that contains all of the textFormat code to display the text with this latest change. That works fine, to an extent....
When the movie is first started, the text is left aligned (as it shoudl be since the text field is set that way)... and then if I type in some text and then hit the 'center' button, it centers it like it should. Now here is where the problem is: If I go to add in more text before what is already there, or select some of the text and begin typing, it immediately left-aligns the text again. It would be annoying for the user to have to hit re-center the text again..and to make things worse, I have it so that when each button is pushed, it shows an 'on-state' ... so when it automatically left-aligns the text, the 'center' button is still active.

I'm making an array of clickable images, based on kirupas gallery tutorial.I want images in rows and columns. To show images in rows and columns i need to change the ._y and ._x coordinate everytime the image hits the end of the screen.....Here is the code:
Code:
tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) {
target_mc._x = (target_mc._width+1)*k;
if (target_mc._x > 400){
[code]....
When the image's x-coordinate is > than 400 the image should shift down (using ._y + 70), and the x-coordinate should be reset to zero to place the images right underneath another.BUT, when i set ._x to zero it stays at zero throughout the rest of the loop...

I am recently making a website in flash cs3 using flash actionscript 2. I have currently put a zoom&pan image viewer into one of the website pages to use as a map viewer. However once pasted into a empty movie clip it seems to be displaying a whole lot of white space once fully zoomed out and the image being only around a 1/4 of the assigned area. I am thinking its something to do with the alignment. I have also attached the swf file, for quick view. The image can be found if you enter corporate in the first window then venue in the side menu.

I've been following an xml tutorial webdesign tutorial, as I'm pretty new to the whole coding side of things, I've copied their code into my own design, which has been going fine up until this point.In the tutorials the dynamic menus were alligned vertically, in my site I want them to run horizontally, well I managed to suss out how to realign them, the problem is that the spacing between each button is set according to the end of each (invisible) button.I'm wondering if theres a line of code I can insert, which defines the size of each button according to the size of the text, or alternately, that starts the spacing from the end of the text rather than the button.[code]

I'm using the following code to resize user input text when it gets too long for the textfield. The resizing seems to work fine but when it resizes it it becomes left aligned and is outside the textfield. I only see the end of the text. It's as though it's centering to the cursor instead of the text. If I use the arrow keys to back up the text it snaps into the center of the textfield like it should have been from the start.[code]

I have a problem with the TLF text alignment issue. The problem comes when am adding an image in the TLF text and some text in the text box after the image tag and setting the format tag to leftMargin.<TEXTFORMAT LEFTMARGIN = "20">Some text goes here< /TEXTFORMAT>. what am expecting is if i insert a image tag means it needs to come in the first column and text in the second column just like the normal textfield. For normal text the TEXTFORMAT tag is working perfectly for TLF its not working is there any chance to rectify the problem.
Below is the text what i have given in the Tlf textbox please check it with the normal text also tlf_txt.htmlText = '<img src = "[URL]" width = "10" height = "10" align = "texttop"/><TEXTFORMAT LEFTMARGIN = "20">Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the Use Device Fonts setting. Use the Text Font Embedding command to embed fonts.</TEXTFORMAT>'
