I have a main movie menu which has sub movies loaded into levels 1 then section 2 into level 2. I have the subs loading on button but i cant get the subs to unload levels 1 and 2 once they have played.
View 7 Replies[URL]I have: main.swf (a menu) and I have module.swf (content)If you navigate to Subsea Wellhead Systems/SS-15 BigBore II and click on that I have it load an external swf which covers most of the parent. So far so good. My problem is unloading the loaded 'Child' swf with the button provided on the loaded 'Child' swf.below is the code I used to load the file but I cant, for the life of me, find a way to unload it.
var bigboreLoader:Loader = new Loader();btnbb2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, bigborecontent);
function bigborecontent(event:MouseEvent):void{var bigboreRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("moduletemplate.swf"); bigboreLoader.load(bigboreRequest); stage.addChild(bigboreLoader);
I am certain it requires the Child to communicate with the parent somehow but I am at a loss. If I could get a bit of advice or a link to something deal with this, it would be a big help. I just need to have my links load my modules and the remove them when the close buttong is hit on the loaded swf. I promise I have done searches and I admit I have found asnwers but still they are not working. I found the code below:
Main FLA:
function removeF() {
removeChild(bigboreLoader);
}

I spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla. In my main.fla, I have a code which loads the other two files. If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

I used to do this fine with AS2 and now i'm struggling to get it to work in AS3.my code is as follows:

I am using the following code to load a SWF file into a Flash animation. The SWF file is nothing more than a short flv video (10 seconds). Users have the option of clicking a "HOME" mc if they want to return to the main menu before the flv video is completely finished playing.
[Code]....
When I click the HOME mc the lipStop.swf disappears as I intend and the animation returns to frame 1, but somehow I can still hear the SWF file playing in the background. I tried the samething using a FLV playback component and the same thing happens: timeline returns to frame 1, the image diappears, but I can still hear the audio track in the background.
The first part is that I am downloading a SWF from a server that has a bunch of exported images in it. I am doing a lookup of the class names for these images then using that to load the data into the application. Later on down the line it is possible to download a separate SWF that has images in the same format with overlapping names.The issue here is that when loading the second SWF with duplicate names it doesn't overwrite the data as one might expect, it uses whatever was loaded first. So I need to know if it's possible to either make it overwrite the classes with the new data or throw them away before loading the new SWF so the old ones don't get in the way. Is this possible at all
View 4 Replieshow to unload the swfs in as3 once you click a button to load a new one.
My file works great, with the exception of the videos playing over each other. slight bummer.
I have five buttons that each pull an external swf that is controlled by an xml file. If there were not sound it would not be an issue, but the sound overlaps if you click to the next link before the first video finishes playing.
I uploaded all the files here, including two test flv files. the files were too big to upload to the kirupa forum.

how can i unload the current loaded swf when moving on to another frame?
I have a master swf that uses Loader to load in an external swf. I need to load a back button on top of that stack as a separate Child - and I have code in that loaded Child that needs to Unload the Loader-Loaded swf, unload the Buttons, and move the main timeline to another frame.
View 2 RepliesI'm about getting crazy over the inconsistency of loading and unloading movies processes.First one or two movies, ok. But after that, I always has my fingers crossed.It's a mixture or simple game and quiz movies. So I have this Main movie as the controller that control about 3 game movies and 16 quiz movies. So, I have these piece of codes in my Main movie timeline:
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (NextMovieOK) {
switch (movieQNum) {

I'm using Loader::load() successfully to load swfs into my main swf and then I add them as a child of a Sprite. When other events occur I want to remove the swfs as needed. I have looked at unload() and at removeChildAt() without success.
I only added the addChild() call to try to pin down the loaded instance so I could remove it. The loading works fine without the addChild();
I have also tried publishing to player v.10 and using myLoader.unloadAndStop(); but this has no effect either;
The following demo code shows my problem. I see one child added and one removed but intro.swf is still playing away.
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;

I'am developing a Custom Player for SWF's,...the SWF's are loaded externally.I've added functionality so as to load next SWf if next_btn is clicked and previous sef if prev_btn is clicked.Now, whats happening is that, the sound of the loaded swf is still playing in the background if another swf is loaded along with the loaded swf's sound.I'am thinking that if I'am able to remove the loaded swf and then load the next swf, then this problem will be solved,...I just don't know how to unload it.My code so far is...
var Xpos:Number = 0.0;
var Ypos:Number = 0.0;
var swf:MovieClip;

My main project loads an external .swf ("room") depending on which button the user clicks. Once that external .swf ("room") is loaded, the viewer chooses a ("demo") .swf to view. I need the "demo" .swf to unload once it is finished playing so that the viewer sees the 1st external .swfs menu again. All .swfs are loaded into an empty loader component. The "demo" swfs were created in captivate thus I don't have access to a timeline for them.[code]That all works fine, but when I load "room" .swfs into the main .swf, the unloadCaptivate(); no longer works.
View 1 RepliesI'm having a problem unloading an external SWF from my container clip. I've searched all morning for a fix to this problem, with no clear resolution. I thought this was originally a xml update issue, but it's not. A lot of talk about removing child nodes, but I'm not sure what do do there.Here's my code:
PHP Code:
function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { xmlNode = this.firstChild; swiff = []; total = xmlNode.childNodes.length; for (i=0;

I have a really simple problem regarding the unloading of swf's. I've searched for solutions but somehow I am having some difficulties understanding all the parent-child associations.So, I have main swf that has four buttons, each loading an external swf. The buttons are on the main timeline. The swf's that are loaded have a return button on their main timelines that would need to unload the current swf and thus return to my main swf.
View 1 RepliesI have a simple file with 2 buttons (load + unload).By pressing the load button, an external movie_player SWF loads (this SWF loads a FLV video into it).The problem is that when I press unload, the movie_player dissapears from the main SWF, but I still can hear it. How can this problem be fixed?

var urlRequest01:URLRequest = new URLRequest("movie_player.swf");

I'm building a site that has 7 sections. 1 section is a Photo Gallery for which I'm loading an external SWF file that is controlled by an XML file. Im doing this for allowing content editing any time.
All of the other content on the site is one-time, no backend required.
I've successfully loaded the external swf file into a loader in one of the frames. However, when I navigate away to the other 6 sections, I'm unable to unload the external SWF loader. How do I go about this?
Here's my code that loads the external SWF in one frame:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//This creates a new instance of the loader object.
var my_Loader:Loader = new Loader();

having a few problems with my project which i although it work it has some unpleasant bugs that When i load external ´s they show up on top of the Menu button.Maybe because the button i´m pressing is inside the same movieclip as the Menu Explaining better here´s a little diagram of my site:con2 MC (Instance of Menu) ---> cont3 MC (Instance of subMenu) and mainButton MC (Instance of Main)Here´s the general code which is inside the Painel

I have a external swf that has an embedded video that loads automatically. Once it loads I have a button that unloads it and reloads. The first time I unload it, it works fine. The second time the video unloads but the sound continues? This happens each time I load and unload; the sound continues to loop.
stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs1/ME_video1a1.swf");

In one particular keyframe, I have five buttons on the left hand side of my stage, that when clicked, display an external swf on the right handside. It works perfect fine using the code below. However on this frame where all this is going on, I also have a back button that i want to link back to the home page. But I just CAN'T seem to get it to unload the external swfs as well as go back in the timeline.[code]
View 8 RepliesI have been able to unload the SWF (emptyMC.removeChildAt(0) ), or so I thought, but if there is sound playing in the loaded SWF it continues to play after the loader with the old SWF is unloaded. I know there is the unloadAndStop() method but I don't know how to incorporate it into my current code.Here is what I have so far. And mind you, eventually there will be 20 pages in the site, let me know:
ActionScript Code:
btnMENU.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,loadHome);
btnAPPT.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadAbtDoctor);

i have a main swf...from the main swf, an external swf is loaded which is a SubMenu.From the Submenu, a SECOND external swf is loaded. I would like a button that closes the SECOND external swf, but the submenu remains.
View 3 RepliesI am slowly learning AS3 but have hit a bit of a brick wall though I am sure it is something that many will see as easily resolvable, just my lack of knowledge and understanding of AS3 at this moment.
My query is I am trying to create a SWF which loads in (3) external SWF's using three movieclips I have within the main SWF. I have managed to get the external SWF's (1.swf, 2.swf, 3.swf) to load in when each of the movieclips / AS3 buttons have been clicked but I cannot figure out how to unload the current selected SWF file (e.g. have initially click on btnOne which displays 1.swf yet when click on btnThree to display 3.swf, 1.swf has not been removed from the stage and overlaps 3.swf) when I want to load another SWF file (sorry if this does not make sense). Below is the test code I have tried:
Code: Select all/////////////////////
///////Loaders///////
/////////////////////
//One
[code]....
My question is how do I unload (or removeChild I guess) the current SWF from the stage when I click on another movieclip / AS3 button to load another external SWF without the mish-mash as can be seen in the uploaded test files?
I am Using Flash MX ActionScript.
Anyways i have a series of buttons, and I would like them to each load a external SWF file into a movieclip. I have accomplished this so far but, I would like it so that whenever I click a button it unloads any already loaded SWF file that is already there. This is what I Have So far
on (release) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", this.movieholder);
}
i'm using external SWFs that load into my "container" layer when a button is pressed. these external SWFs will have a "close" button in them, and i want them to "unload" when the button is pressed. this is the code i'm using to load the movie, which works fine:_root.container.loadMovie(_root.currMovie+".swf")but how does one go about "unloading" a movie? how can i change this line of code to achieve this?
View 10 RepliesI am loading an external swf file into my main swf movie with a button. But I donot know how to unload it. Here are the scripts.
on (release) {loadMovie("Main content.swf","Main1");

Main1 = the holder on the stage
I'm working on a project in which I'm loading an external AS2 swf file onto the main stage.
To load the movie I'm using this code:
Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filename);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
[Code]....
Thing is, when I use removeChild on the movieclip, I can still hear the sound of the swf file, which means, it wasn't really unloaded when I removed the movieclip containing it.
How can I completely unload the swf?
So I was reading in to unloadAndStop a little bit and found out this is the exact thing I need when loading my external swf's which have sound on them. I am new to AS3 so please bare with me. I believe I understand it when applying it to loading one single swf. But I have my site set up a little differently by using a universal button for my links. How could I apply "unloadAndStop" as a universal function to when any button is clicked the previously loaded swf unloads? I also had a question about fading the swf's in and out. I'm pretty sure from what I can remember that I can add the fades right in to my AS3 below instead of having to add them to each of the external swfs right?
Code:
var Xpos:Number = 35;
var Ypos:Number = 260;
