ActionScript 2.0 :: [F8] External Imgs Loaded Into Movie Clip Appear Big Before Scaling

Jan 16, 2007

[URL]

Click on one of the menu options - "corporatecommunications" or "events&entertainment"

I fixed the earlier progressBar problem, but when you click on an image thumbnail to load it, it pops up regular size for maybe 1/30th of a second before being scaled to the proper size.

Here's my code:

Code:

// set a variable to hold image name
var imageNow:String;
// scale empty movie clip that will hold the image
function iHoldSize() {

ActionScript 2.0 :: No Resize/scaling A Movie Clip On The Scaling Stage?

Mar 11, 2008

I've search through all the threads with "scaling" and "resizing" and can't find the solution.

Basically I have a GUI element on a gallery that I don't want to scale, while the rest of the page is free to resize/scale.

I think I need to add a listener of some sort to the stage, but I'm not sure how to do this.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Duplicate Movie Clip With An External Imaged Loaded In It?

Oct 3, 2007

I have a movie clip in which I loaded an external JPG to. Well, this movie clip works as a thumbnail and, as I click in it, I want the thumb's image to be loaded ("again") in another movie clip. duplicateMovieCLip does not seem to work.I don't want to load the image twice (as it strikes me as bandwidth waste..). Does this make sense? Or must I be load the image twice? (of course..I could use smaller images for thumbnails..)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Imgs Into Movie Clips On The Stage?

Dec 16, 2009

I have a banner that I've created and i'm trying to dynamically load in an image so that I can display it on the banner. However I'm having a very difficult time with it. I've found tutorials explaining how to load an image into flash and show it on the display but they are all creating an instance where as I have instances of the MC already set in tweens and on the stage.I tried attempting code such as:

Code:
this.Img_holder_mc.Load("myImage.jpg");
but this isn't working.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Scaling A Dynamic Movie Clip?

Apr 11, 2007

Basically, I have two movie clips; Square_mc, which is the object I want to scale and scaleTransform_mc which acts as my free transform edit point. What I'd like to happen, is when you click on and drag Transform_mc (The edit point), the correpsonding Square_mc movie clip's _xscale and _yscale change in proportion. I.e. Similar to the free transform tool in Flash.

Code:
scaleTransform_mc.onPress = function(){
scaleTransform_mc.startDrag();

ActionScript 2.0 :: [Flash8] Place An External Swf File On It In A Desired Position When The Corresponding Page Is Being Loaded + Scaling

Aug 18, 2006

I have a flash file (a flash navigation bar actually, which gets loaded in all the webpages inside the website). What I am trying to do is place an external swf file on it in a desired position when the corresponding page is being loaded. I am using FlashVars (variable name -> 'movieName') to pass the name of the movie clips. These variables are read by the navigation swf file and the corresponding swf file should be loaded in the area specified. Now, to create a container, I am using createEmptyMovieClip() method which will host all the external swf files.

The swf files are all being loaded but with a lot of problems. First, no matter what I try, the swf file comes at a fixed place (which is way off from where it is supposed to be). I have tried checking if the container loaded the movie before fixing its position but it changed nothing. Although it did change the position of a weird background colour box I am getting when the movie starts loading - which brings me to the second problem.

A rectangular box flashes once when the external swf is loaded, and its position is being affected by whatever I am setting the _x & _y values of the container movies to. I have no idea why it is happening as it doesn't happen when I test that swf seperately.

Actionscript 2.0 :: Resize Movie Clip While Scaling Its Contents Proportionally

Mar 4, 2010

I have set a movie clip with instance name if "body" to resize automatically based on the size of the browser window using:

body._x = Stage.width / 2;
body._y = Stage.height - 44;
body._height = Stage.height - 149;
body._width = Stage.width-20;

(that code may not actually have any relevance?)

What I'm wanting to happen is that when the "body" movie clip changes size, I want the objects within it to be scaled proportionally (keeping the x:y ratio the same). The result that I'm wanting will result in the contents (as a whole) being proportionally scaled to the height (because it will always be the smaller dimension in my case) of the current size of the body mc.

I've uploaded my .fla so you can see what im working with. The red square is the body that i've managed to scale but I have not yet added anything within it. (I have tried but it's contents distort when the body is resized)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading A Movie Clip From A Loaded Movie Clip

Feb 18, 2009

I've been trying to load a movie clip from a movie clip that has been loaded. I am trying to provide a simple means to change the look / feel of the flash application by placing the graphics and controls into a second swf. Each different screen is represented by a different movie clip that is in the second swf. So I've got app.swf loading ui.swf. I want to load screen1_mc from ui.swf.

The app.swf is loaded by a master swf. There may be multiple copies of the app.swf that can be loaded by the master.swf and each app.swf could be configured differently. For each "unique" app.swf it is stored under a unique folder that is not known to me in advance. Since I don't know the unique folder in advance, I can't use import / export for runtime sharing. Is there any way to load the movie clips from the loaded movie clip? (Basically, I want to treat the ui.swf as an extension to the library.)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Movie Clip Into Loaded Movie Clip?

Mar 16, 2005

I'm working on a flash site and I'm having some trouble with the programming for it. I'm not so great at action script, so I'm hoping that my troubles are caused by my own stupidity and that some cool smart person will have an answer for me.
So, I have a main menu flash file that functions like the one in this tutorial:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/p...transition.htm I set it to load various swf files and it's works just fine. What I want to do is have it load a swf that functions exactly the same (buttons that load external clips with transitions) as the main swf- this is a sub page menu. So, in theory, the sub menu page should load the final content, and three swfs would be seen stacked ontop of each other.

I changed the instance names in the sub menu file to be different than that in the main menu file. This fixed the original problem of it loading the content clip into the clip that the sub menu should stay in. Now, It loads the sub menu just fine, but then it gets stuck and never loads the content. The sub menu buttons will not function at all. Independent of the main menu, the sub menu file works perfectly What can I do??? Does it have anything to do with the "_root"? I never understood the concept, so I'm having trouble with it.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Targetting A Movie Clip - Loaded Into A Container Clip From Main Timeline

Nov 24, 2005

I am targeting a a movie clip. The problem is that all the syntax I have found for targetting clips looks like this: _root.sample_mc.sample2.mc. etc. The problem is, my target clip is in an swf that I've loaded into a container clip from my main timeline. So, essentially, I have a home.swf that loads menu.swf into a container called 'location'. In menu.swf, I have an MC called center, which contains the MC I am targetting called 'target'.

Get A Movie Clip To Automatically Load Up Another External Clip After Playing An Embedded Flv?

May 24, 2010

I'm trying to get a movie clip to automatically load up another external clip, after playing an embedded flv.

This is what I've tried so far:

var holdFrame = setInterval( holdFrame, 5000);
gotoAndPlay(
_root.mc_holder.loadMovie("swf/library.swf"));
clearInterval (holdFrame);

Although it throws no errors, the setInterval is ignored and it just loads direct into the next mc clip.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating The External .swf Into A Blank Movie Clip In The Main Movie?

Oct 10, 2002

I'm still a rookie in flash and I'm having a little bit of trouble with some actionscript. I've gotten as far as placing the buttons and assign the correct actionscript for them to work. Everything is working fine with the buttons activating the external .swf into a blank movie clip in the main movie. Ony thing is, I would like the external movie assigned to the first button to open once the movie is loaded.

I thought by using the same actionscript i used on the button {and removing the on(release) tag} and placing on the first frame of the main movie would help, but it doesn't.

IDE :: Resize Image Loaded In A Movie Clip?

Nov 17, 2006

I'm trying to resize an image loaded in a movie clip, so that any image I load will always fit correctly in my movie.The script is pretty simple, it reads an xml file where they should be 6 records. Loads the image in the Thumb attribute in on of the 6 containers eg. _root.screen.Event1

Code:

for (i=0; i < 6; i++){
MyEvent = Event[i].attributes ;
_root.screen["Event"+i].Title.text = MyEvent.Title ;

[code]....

It works but not as expected. It looks like only the container is scaled down not the image really.
