ActionScript 3.0 :: Chage Image Size In (CS4)
Jun 25, 2009I am loading an external image into AS3. The image comes in quite large, and I am simply trying to make it 200h x 200w. In AS3 using FlashCS3, you can do this:
Code:
import fl.containers.UILoader;
var myLoader:UILoader = new UILoader();
myLoader.height = 200;
myLoader.width = 200;
myLoader.load(myImage)
That works fine in AS3 using FlashCS3, however is not supported in FlashCS4. Why? Who knows, but my guess is that there is another simpler way to do it, even though you can't get much simpler than that. I have tried using the standard loader:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
and tried to change the dimensions, but it was a no go. Also tried making a movieClip and a Sprite and loading the image into them and changing their dimensions, but then the image disappears entirely and doesn't work.
Actionscript 3.0 :: Use A Var To Hold TargetPath?
Mar 3, 2010I have a long path that i'd like to use as part of an array, so rather than inserting the full path over and over again, I'd like to create a variable that I can use in its place. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work for me and i'm beginning to wonder if its possible.
ActionScript Code:
Code: Select allvar path:targetPath= "buttons_mc.platforms_mc"
path.MCName.gotoAndPlay(2);
ActionScript 2.0 :: Pathing Of Objects - Set The Targetpath?
Jun 29, 2004When creating custom-objects, is there any way to set it's pathing? The problem is that it seems without a defined targetPath the object's callbacks are ignored.
[Code]...
So, is there any way to set the targetpath? They all seem like read-only to me. One way to fix it perhaps is to place an object on the stage and use the as2 field to define it's class, but I prefer coding everything If i make a movieclip using createEmptyMovieClip, it'll work (trace(this) shows say _level0.some_mc) ), but I want my custom classes..

Jan 25, 2010I have the following script:

gotohome();[code]....
and I want these targetpath rewritten with the new variable of positieMC everytime I click the button. But somehow this doesn't work. I have the idea that theze targetpath are not rewritten when I click the button.
Actionscript 3.0 :: Dynamically Add To The Targetpath Of Objects That Pass Into A Function?
May 5, 2010I am trying to dynamically add to the targetpath of objects that I pass into a function. I am not sure if this can be done but the following code kinda explains best what I am trying to do.
Code: Select allvar mc1:MovieClip = new MC();
var mc2:MovieClip = new MC();
var arr:Array = new Array(mc1, mc2);
[Code]....
So mc1 and mc2 are both created by objects that are instantiated from library. It contains nested children "mc2.mc3.textField". How I might be able to dynamically refer to the path of a MovieClip

ActionScript 3.0 :: Comunicating Between Loaded Child Movieclips And Parent Holder Movieclips?
Aug 6, 2010I m trying to make sense of how to load a swf into a parent MovieClip and allow them to communicate.I ve attached two zip files � one which works fine and the other doesn�t. Unfortunately (for me), the one which doesn�t work is closer to my current project.I need to load movieclips into the parent movieclip. The parent movieclip has controls which rely on values parsed from the child movieclip.In the parent movieclips I wait until the loading is complete and so the values should be passed. However, the values aren�t passed unless I use a button (or timer), to pass the values (see the working exampes).The code which doesn�t work is:
Parent movieclip:

stop();

Professional :: Testing Movieclips That Have Nested Movieclips?
Oct 21, 2010I want to test mc animations without having to hit F12 to see if they work correctly. For instance, if I have an animation movieclip and then I make another movieclip and drop that aforementioned movieclip within, and animate [via the timeline or library preview] I'm unable to see on-the-fly what my animation looks like... it only shows the top most nest, unless I F12 it.
So if I have a character blinking eyes (one movieclip) and then I create another movie clip of the face, and put that aforementioned movieclip within, the preview animation within the library does not show how it'll be viewed when F12'n it.,,,, it'd be great to see your animations on the fly.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Why Do Movieclips Inside Movieclips Have Different _x And _y Than The Timeline
Oct 30, 2007why does a MC inside another MC have different _x and _y values than the main timeline?What I am trying to do right now is animate a MC inside another MC then get the main MC holding everything to move where that new MC ended animating at (it's part of a game I'm making.)
I know it's confusing but Flash shows the cursors current X and Y in the info panel, which is the same as the main timeline. Yet inside the movieclip, an x of 76 and a y of 277 on the timeline is -195 and -30.9 (respectively) inside the MC.How do I fix it so I can get the _x and _y values to match up so I can tell the main MC to reposition itself to the new X and Y (of the inside MC)
ActionScript 2.0 :: MovieClips Inside Other MovieClips - Detecting All
Mar 27, 2008I have a movieclip called mapWindow, inside mapWindow are dynamically created movieclips of various sizes. The movieclips inside the mapWindow don't take up the entire space of the mapWindow and thus I use a startDrag on the mapWindow upon detection of a mouse press. The problem is, I don't want the start drag to start if the mouse is detected over any of the child movieclips inside mapWindow.
I have a few ideas of how to proceed, but I'm not sure how to reference all child movieclips of a particular movieclip - or something along those lines.
It would be easy to use the hittest function if I knew how to reference all the movieclips I need to, but alas...

I have a print button (PrintUp) which sends the movieclips to be printed, however when I print, they don't sit on top of one another, they come out separately.

The two movieclips are "Background" and "Grass"
