ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash 8 - Scrollbar Not Scrolling Dynamically Loaded Movies Inside A Movie?
Jul 18, 2010
I'm having trouble getting my scrollbar to work with dynamically loaded movies inside the movie the scrollbar is attached to.An example of my working scrollbar code with static data and my broken scrollbar with dynamic data can be found here: [URL]
I have a for loop that pulls data from my database, populates a topMovie(contentMain) with 20 subMovies inside it. My scrollbar is attached to topMovie. Once the data is loaded and the topMovie is populated, the scrollFace(not ScrollTrack) dissapears and the dynamic movie is not scrollable.As a test, I populated the topMovie with graphic boxes and no dynamic movies and it scrolls just fine.
Scrollbar code:
Code:
scrolling = function () {
var scrollHeight:Number = scrollTrack._height;
var contentHeight:Number = contentMain._height;
var scrollFaceHeight:Number = scrollFace._height;
[code]....

An example of my working scrollbar code with static data and my broken scrollbar with dynamic data can be found on a nice webpage I made, but I cannot post a proper link: www cryhavocguild com/actionscript php. Make sure to include the www as my flash file will only load the data with it (another problem).

Ive made two simple up/down buttons, that "scrolls" a loaded movie by the following code (lets say the movie is loaded to level 5):
_level5._y += 5;
Very simple.
Well, Id like to be able to hold down the button and have the movie scroll continously, like the scroll++ code does for textboxes.Is that possible?

That said, I would like to alter some of the code to allow the thumbnail scrollbar to begin scrolling once the page has loaded. Here is what the code looks like as it is right now.

To just add the articles will only make the page load slower so I used a scrollbar with a textfield and added text and pics to the article to scroll it. This works fine but I need a way where the scroll can call different textfields or movieclips. For instance, the main scroll opens with a textfield that scrolls articles 15 thru 10. I need on the bottom of the page buttons that link articles 9 thru 5 and so on. So when you click a button the textfield or movieclip changes and displays what is in that textfield or mc. I have looked for a tutorial, a video or anything on this and besides coming up with Flash 5 similar mentions but nothing to this point

I have a text box which dynamically loads the information from a .txt file. I want to scroll the text, with buttons that I have made(not the component scroll bar that comes with Flash MX), up and down through the text I have. I've tried many different scripts, and none seem to work. Is there a good concise walkthrough for this anywhere?

I have a small issue going on. I created a dynamic scrollbar which scrolls dynamically loaded XML text. But it's not scrolling..You can view it here:(Click Start, 2 times the right arrow, then the book, to the righthand side there is a scrollbarI have divided my Scrollbar into 3 classes, the actual scrollbar, the scrollbar custom event and the scrollbar including content and mask.This is the actual scrollbar:

I followed the tutorial for Scrolling Dynamically Loaded Text & its works well. The problem I am experiencing I have a limited about of space in my movie for the text box. The text file has all the data that I need to display but for some reason I only see a portion of the information & I can't seem to figure out my mistake.

I'm fairly new to action script so this might be me being simple but: I followed the Scrolling Dynamically Loaded Text tutorial and added it to my flash movie and although it works perfectly in the tests and once published once it loads in the browser all I get is the word undefined at the top of the text box. I've searched all over for a solution but as I said my understanding of action script is fairly limited.

Is there a way to automatically unload movies when a new movie is loaded? eg: 5 buttons, 5 bit of art. At the moment they overlap instead of unloading before the new one loads.

Does anyone knows how something similar can be done: [URL] surface I mean the video clips, which zoom when you mouse over them, then when you click they will go forward, blurring the background. Then on close, everything will go back t the home screen. And all the time the movies inside will play.

On my stage i have a scroll pane (instance name scrollPane).I have a container which i populate with dynamically created clips (instance name faveContainer). The clips are in this case, just thumbnails pulled from a folder.I want to push that container into the scroll pane once its built up.Heres where i am currently....Im guessing that scrollPane isnt picking up the faveContainer off the stage, but out of the library, but while that might be the case, i don't know what to do about it.I saw kirupa example, and attempted to copy its behaviour, but, well, cant!
Code:
var garmentFaves = new Array("3","4","1","5","3","2","1","6","3","4","1","6","3","4");
//var garmentFaves = _root.favesArray;

Ok, I'm using actionscript 2.0, and I am trying to make a scrolling image gallery. I have a movie clip with three layers. the first contains a movie clip used as a scroll bar. The second is a mask used to hide the overflow content, and the third contains movie clip thumbnails. when I click one of the thumbnails, it loads a symbol containing a larger version of the picture over top of the thumbnails on the same layer. My problem is, the large image is added at the very top of the movie clip, even when it is scrolled out of sight. I want it to appear in sight, so the user doesn't have to scroll all the way back up to the top to see it. This is annoying and confusing. Is there a way to do this?
Here is the code I used to create the scroll effect (there is actually a whole lot more to the code but it is very long, so I am not adding it now. I will if it is needed though)(Oh, and there is no text involved in this. I just got this code off a tutorial and I haven't changed the variable names yet)
var scrollUpper:Number = 58; var scrollLower:Number = 309;
var textLower:Number = 60; var textUpper:Number = -179;
var scrollRange:Number = scrollLower - scrollUpper; var textRange:Number = textLower

What I have is a news blogger that is loaded via xml which uses php to write to the xml file. I have my "blogger" movie clip that loads all of the different blogger info into it. It is loaded into a blank container movie clip via attachMovie and when the user adds a new blog it creates new instance of it and moves the rest down. All works great with that.
Now the problem is after the client creates more then 3 blogs, it begins to run off the site. So what I need to do is put it into a scroller. Now I have gotten it into the scroller but it seems that the scroller is not seeing the actual size of the container clip that is holding all of these instances of the "blog" movie that is loaded from attachMovie. The size will change depending on how many blogs there are and I need to figure out how to add script to calculate that. Here is the code I have to load the "blogitem" movie into the blank container movie.
Code:
var i = 0;
if (gateXML.hasChildNodes())
{
child = gateXML.firstChild;

Is there any way to alter the fonts and font sizes WITHIN the bulk of text?ie. If I wanted to have a header in one font, and the rest of the text in another.Rif I wanted to add a url hyperlink.I did a site for a friend, and used the dynamically loaded textboxes so he could update it himself by just changing the .txt file.At the moment all the scrolling textboxes are in one font. I would love to be able to change this, and even more, would love for my friend himself to be able to mix different fonts and update it himself

when I leave a window with flash content, in this case, a scrolling movie clip with buttons inside set to hyperlink popups (only 1 hyperlink is set so far): [URL] the flash content will disappear. So if I go back to the window, I have to reload the page to get the flash to appear again. Same thing happens if I minimize the window, when I bring it back up, no flash, and I have to reload the page. The menubar with the boxes at the top is flash as well (different swf) and that doesn't have this problem.

I'm trying to use the scroll pane component for the first time, and I've spent most of the day getting nowhere. Based on my experience with other components and with loading content into movie clips, I expected that I would point my scroll pane to its content and be off and running, but that hasn't happened.

Since I've never done this and the google results are quite random, I ask here: Is it possible to display Flash movies inside a Flex application and interact with them?
The scenario is as follows:
I'm developing a new application in flex Another, already completed application is given to me as SWF (or perhaps SWC, don't know any details yet) I have to insert this second application inside in my Flex application, which should be no problem afair I have to interact with this application: send and retrieve data. Don't know any further details here, too.
Will this be possible? Or is Flex only capable of displaying the SWF without the possibility to interact with it? I hope you can understand, what I want (have to...) do.

I need to load a flash-game inside the flash site. The goal is to get information about the winners' score to publish it on the site. The problem is that the game was developed by third-party programmers, so I have no idea if I can get access to any variable of the loaded swf (game) to get the highscores.
How can I retrieve the data from loaded swf?

Anyway, if you click on "events&entertainment" a new movie is loaded on lvl 53. It's a thumbnailed image gallery that loads external images into an empty movie clip. Works great! The progressBar shows the proper info and disappears when the image is loaded.That's not the problem.Now, click on "corporatecommunications". It loads a movie in lvl 54, unloads lvl 53 - the gallery is the same code, but it doesn't work.
Reload the site and click on "corporatecommunications". Works great! Now, click "events&entertainment". Doesn't work.Here is the code for the "events&entertainment" movie gallery functionality. The "corporatecommunications" galley uses the same code, but replaces the "ee" with "cc" in the variable, functions, etc...
Code:
// Create a variable to hold the image location information
var imageNowee:String;
imageNowee = "images/toby06a.jpg";[code]......

I have some actionscript, and it scrolls the scrollRect, but there is a catch. It doesn't completely scroll it. It lets me scroll down until it's halfway and stops. I can still scroll up to the top, but the problem is unerving. I can't find a fix for it.
