ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Width Each Frame Not Sticking
Jul 16, 2010
I have a class that in it's constructor I run the following code, that basically checks to see if the class movieclip is bigger than it's supposed to be, and goes through and changes the background art on each frame to be the size the user wants it to be (with 4 frames in the class and with bg art called "bg1","bg2", "bg3", and "bg4" respectively on each frame). So, I cycle each of the 4 frames and change the background art to the new width and set the parent class to xscale=100. The problem is as soon as I change the width of the bg art, as soon as I gotoAndStop to another frame that width is lost and set back to what it was.[code]...

This makes absolutely no sense to me.I'm calling gotoAndPlay(1) every 8 frames:
public function advance():void {
walkDistance += 2;
if(walkDistance >= 16) {

I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?

I would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

My question is in relation to AS3 dropdowns. You can check the page at: http:[url].....Under the "Visitors" and "Media" links, there are mouseover dropdown menus. You'll notice that they stick a little bit, and to make them go back up, you really have to hit very specific hit areas. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I have a full flash site that I export and place into an html at a 100%. My original flash file size is 1024*768. Basically, it's a background movieclip with things happening into it and above this background, a bottom bar with my menu. I wish to have this bottom bar always stuck to the bottom. I tried this code :
Code:
barreMenu._x = Stage.width / 2;
barreMenu._y = Stage.height;
logo._x = (Stage.width - 800) / 2
[Code]....
But it's not working well, as sometimes, my bar is in the middle of the page or not even visible depending on the resolutions. How can I manage to do this?

I think only just started popping up with CS4. Basically sometimes I'll have a menu or something with different states on different keyframes. There is a series of icons (sprites) on there and they get moved around on the different keyframes. Now sometimes when I do this and I go to the next keyframe using actionscript, the MCs stay in the same position they were in the first keyframe no matter how I position them in the actual IDE.I've noticed that if I give each icon a different instance name on every keyframe this goes away, but it is really annoying because I'd like to use the same handler function across all the keyframes.

I have a file that I cannot tweak a small fix for the life of me, and I know it is something relatively simple. I've looked at it so long, that I can no longer think! Hate those days...Anyways, it's in regards to a simple scrollbar moving left to right. My button seems to be sticking to my mouse on release, although I put a stopDrag on it. I think I did some of this code backward, but it still works somehow; although I can't explain it. the numbers in parenthesis/minus sign are representing in the following code (in red)? I think I'm looking at this wrong, which is why I am working backward. I need a refresher here as it's been a while since I did one of these.
// have the button interact with the scrollbar button (this is on the ScrollMC)
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_root.vPosition = _root.SliderMC.ButtonSliderMC._x * (800 / 390) - 200;

I'm trying to edit an HTML that uses swfobject to load a flash file.
What I'm trying to do is to reduce the size of the SWF file.
I've tried editing the height and width parameter within the swfobject(), but that didn't work.
I tried reducing the width height in the HTML css, but that also didn't work..
How can I pass a 'width' or a 'height' parameter to the swfobject so it will actually load the swf in a smaller or 'zoomed out' way?

I am making a quiz/game, and it works like this, two teams that have to take over the united states, by answering history questions, so right now I have it were when you click on a state, it takes you to a question (on a different frame in the main timeline), then I have a problem, if you get the question right it takes you to the "board" of the United States (that works), but when you are back the color of the state should change its color to red (on frame of the clip) if south got it and blue (another frame of the clip) if north got itBut instead i changes back to grey (default color, all start grey to begin with). I don't and can't seem to figure this out

I've been following the book "Beggining Flash Programing for Dummies" and I have come up to a part where I create a very simple game.
The script involved in the frames are FRAME here:
stop();
btnGoThere.onRelease = function(){ _root.gotoAndStop("there");
} //end event handler
Frame there
btnGoHere.onRelease = function(){ _root.gotoAndStop("here");} // end release
When I test the movie and click the button, the frames don't seem to change.

I got a MovieClip filled with a lot of others clips... When I change de X or Y value of this first MovieClip the frame rate slows down for during 1 frame. For exemple... I created a counter that returns around 30 mseconds every frame, but when I do this X or Y change the return is around 400 mseconds... When I try to fill the first MovieClip with less information it goes faster, about 100+-200 mseconds...

This doesn't happen very often but if you go to [URL] and click through the slides you'll notice on occasion, a slide will stick on screen and not slide out. And then the other slides slide under the stuck slide. Obviously, this is not acceptable at all. I tried to upload the .fla but FK keeps giving me a Upload failed error. So I'll just have to include the code below. Hopefully, someone can explain to me why this is happening. Is it possible it's because people are clicking too fast and it's a Flash tweening bug?

I have a fla (Home) with a flvplayback component. If I load it using a loader using this script
var loader:Loader = new Loader();var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Home.swf");loader.load(req);addChild(loader);stop();
when I preview it in Firefox or IE and click on the seek bar or volume bar the control slider 'sticks' to the mouse cursor instead of jumping to the spot where I clicked. If I just compile it and play it in Flashplayer the seek bars work as expected. If I preview Home.fla directly they also work properly.Could this be a loader-flvplayback bug?

Here's the site... [URL] *Just type in "insight" as the password. After the site launches click your refresh button and the site sticks on the preloader. The loader is just checking to see if all bytes are loaded and there's a shared object that sent to a user's system that is also checked at start up.

I'm making a program like roomplanner at [url]..
I need to know how to change the width and the height of the movie clip. I know how to scale x and y but that doesn�t work in my case because i have for example an object which height is 75 pixels and width is 137 pixels. X scale and Y scale would work if my objects were 100 pixels width and 100 pixels height.

I am trying to change width of ComboBox instance. I want to change width of the original box, not the list. List width can be changed with inst.dropdownWidth=myWidth; ComboBox width can be changed by free transforming in Flash IDE, but that is not exactly ideal. There should be a code solution for this (I hope). Anyone know or know where to find out? I could not find it in the documentation strangely enough (or maybe I just missed smtg obvious).

It's not my first time with flash, but it's with AS3. I'm having a problem and i don't get it. I'm working with Flash CS3 PRO.
The thing is that i'm working in AS3 with a movieclip. That movieclip has more nested movieclips within. So I've: + bicycle_01 ++ body_low
body_low is animated in bicycle_01. I've created a class that will manage my characters. (This is for a cyclist ranking). So within my main file I create the cyclist. I haven't even started and i found the first problem, i'm trying to change the width of body_low but it freezes. After i change the width of body_low, bicycle_01 stops playing.
Here is my problem: _cyclist.getChildByName( "body_low" ).width = 10;
If I add this line body_low width changes, but the animation stops. (right movieclip in this example)

I know there have been several similar posts but of those I've read, there hasn't been an easy straight forward solution that will work dynamically. The solutions posted have ranged from
super.width = wvalue;
super.height = hvalue;
which I did not get to work, and it seemed from the response to the suggestion neither could the person who originally asked for help, to suggestions about using scale, all the way to having to create an event handler that will get notified after the load, which I guess would work once but wouldn't work dynamically.
Here is the scenario -
I want to change width and height for a MovieClip, but I dont want to scale it, (its more like cropping the MovieClip, not shrinking or stretching) and I want to do this several times not just after the load of the MovieClip.
So my questions are:
1) Is there anyway to do this that really works, that hopefully isn't totally convoluted?
2) Why is it so hard to do this in Flash/AS3?

Is there a way to specify/change the height and width of an image loaded from an xml file that will be placed within an empty movieclip? The movieclip will resize with the webpage, and what I want to do is make sure the images resize proportionally with the movieclip, but I can't seem to figure it out.
