ActionScript 2.0 :: [CS4] Create Empty Movieclip And SwapDepth

Apr 7, 2009

I have a main file running at the bottom (HD video of myself), and several clickable options (for various stuff on my portfolio). To show my digital work, I have a button that takes me to a frame label on _root. and a frame action that tells it to open a movieclip into a containerMC. All this is working perfectly, but it might be needful background info.

This section of my digital portfolio is a mock up of a mac screen desktop (yes I use a mac) / and I want to show my work as "programs". I expect to have 5-10 programs, 2 for now in testing. With no open "programs" at start, but I want the possibility of multiple open "programs", and when you open a new one or click one that already open but in the back, it automatically comes to the foreground (and does not close the ones already open - just like the desktop actually works). Obviously the "programs" have to be draggable too.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create A New Empty Movieclip To Load An Image?

Jan 15, 2007

i'm trying to attach/create a new empty movieclip to load an image into each time my function fires (function has setInterval on it).so far, my code works in that the first time it creates the empty clip and loads the pic in it, measures the loaded bytes and alpha fades in when it's loaded.when the function repeats however, the newly created clip is either not there or i am not referencing it correctly, or there's some problem with the way i'm trying to do this.I don't want to delete the previously attached clip since i'm alpha fading the new one to 100 on top of it.kind of a simple crossfade that way.here's my code:

Code:
startSlides=function(){
this._parent.largePic.createEmptyMovieClip("clipp"+i, 5);
this._parent.largePic["clipp"+i]._alpha=0;[code].....

ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling External Movieclip Using An Empty Movieclip?

Nov 11, 2004

I am loading an external swf into an empty movie clip by use of a button.The movieclip is a sort of menu that begins with an animation of the menu opening, there are multiple different movieclips I am using with this format.What I am trying to accomplish is this.When another button is pressed, I want the movieclip (regardless of which one is loaded) to either:Go to a specific frame and play a closing animation within the movieclip, BEFORE a new movieclip is loaded. OR reverse the animation BEFORE loading new movieclip.Since there are 4 or 5 buttons all loading different clips, I need all the buttons to work this way regardless of which movieclip is loaded.

I am trying to create and delete empty movies that I can load external .swfs into. While the below works if I get rid of

I can't work out how to dynamically name the empty movies, as the below just comes up with errors. I'm pretty new to AS3 and stuck. Any ideas?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Create Empty Clips

Jun 18, 2005

I have an Array Object called extData_arr, that contains data read from a database. Using this data, I'd like to populate my subMenu MovieClips appropriately. I can elaborate on the format of this array if required but basically the problem is this. Now this line seems to work and displays correctly as I expect

status.text = status.text + n + " : " + i + "
";//tracing

but for some reason, on the following line where I try to create empty Clips, flash just doesn't recognize the value of i and therefore refuses to create the clips. Does anyone know why?

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Create Multiple Empty MovieClips Dynamically

Aug 5, 2009

I found lots of links to creating 1 moveclip dynamically but not to create multiple move clips. I am trying to create 10 empty movieclips dynamically, but I cannot seem to get my script to work. This is what I came up with and does not work:
var i;
for (i=0; i<10; i++) {
var myMC["myMC"+i]:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
myMC["myMC"+i].name = "mc"+i;
addChild("mc"+i);

Why this does not work/how do I make it work?

The concept is simple: Create dynamic empty movieclips, position them, fill them, make them clickable. The code under "//////////////////////////////////////Code below here doesn't work" isn't working. The code worked fine when attempting to do this on my main scene, but I ran across some interface issues that caused me to put them into anorther MC. I understand that I only included the code for the first button, right now I would like to get at least one working.
