Im trying to figure out how to force a SWF from Top left corner to the correct position..
I wonder if it goes off because this script Im using is used on another MC? Two same scripts conflicting each other?
This is the SCRIPT im using to load the SWF:
PHP Code:
myPlayer.visible = false;
loadMovieNum("Pano360.swf", 1);
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(_level1){

how to force a SWF from Top left corner to the correct position.. When I tried to use a container it made the external swf not work at all, though it was in right position
WITH THIS CODE, THE SWF LOADED BUT JUST IN WRONG POSITION :
on (release) {gotoAndPlay(4);
loadMovie("gallery.swf",1);
}
then when I used a EmptyMovieClip it came in as the attachment.
Is there any other way to still use the LoadMovie() and adjust the x and y positions?
I'm trying to add some scroll bars to a Sprite using ScrollRect. The Sprite starts empty and when I add something at 500, 500, it should scroll, as it is outside the viewport. Unfortunately, adding a 10x10 Sprite at 500, 500, doesn't make my Sprite change its size to 510, 510, but to 10, 10 ::- (.
We all know that DisplayObjectContainers resize according to what's put in them. But I didn't know up until today that if you put something at 500, 500, the Sprite / DObjContainer will NOT resize from 0, 0 to 500, 500, but simply jump directly at 500, 500. Annoying, as I cannot put Scrollbars on something whose content fluctuates so. I need 0, 0 to remain 0, 0 and if something is placed at 500, 500, the sprite's height should increase with 500 + that something's height.

How would you force a mouse follow movieclip to snap to a x y position if it reaches x y boundaries or perhaps if a button is released the movie clip snaps to a x y position? Of course if the mouse returns to x y boundaries I'd like for the movie clip to follow again.
Right now this is the code I'm using to make the movieclip follow the mouse within x y boundaries:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;

I downloaded a royalty free flash file, that had a text effect I want for a menu of a project of mine. It didn't had much info, so I bought it, only to find out everything is pretty much done with AS2 (I think, may be AS1).
The thing is I want this menu in diagonal position (4�)
By default I only see:
Actionscript Code:
var xo = 10; var yo = 30;
I have a stand alone projector file that I am working with. I am trying to figure out how to position certain elements at the top, bottom and sides of the frame so that when the projector is viewed on different machines those elements will remain in the same position.
The file I am working with will be full screen and I have figured that part out. But I need to create a navbar for the top and another bar at the bottom of the screen. If you look at the drawingart site and you resize the browser all the elements stay the same size too. I need to achieve this effect as I am creating this file to work on all size screens.
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.

I added a Menu_mc on my stage. Initially, this should be at the center of the stage and when I click on it, it will tween on the upper left corner of the browser. However, when I resize the browser, the Menu_mc goes back to the center of the screen.
I have tried separating a different actionscript file where it is specifically for initialization of the object and another one for resizing. And then when I call it on my main AS file it goes like this:
Code:
// Add the symbols to stage
var Menu_mc = new Menu_MC();
addChild(Menu_mc);

But it seems futile.
I am using a ScrollPane in my application(viz., instance name is: myScrollPane). When I view the contents of the ScrollPane, it shows them perfectly. My issue is: When I try to view data present inside the ScrollPane, if I move the Vertical-ScrollBar of the ScrollPane to middle(or somewhere from top to down) and then click on Submit button(viz., instance name is: submit_btn), then its Vertical ScrollPosition must be reset from middle(or any position where we leave it before) to top(or initial position). Hence, I need to move the Vertical ScrollPosition of ScrollPane to top (or) initial position. Everytime, I need to refresh the VerticalScrollBar Position when I click on the submit button. How to do it?

Code:

Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
stageListener = new Object();[code]...
The trace's are because it didn't work like I thought it would.Etc the middle movieclip didn't center itself but rather positioned itself seemingly how it pleased so I traced its x position and the var stageXcenter position and like suspected it shows different values.

View 1 RepliesI have a ScrollPane and I want to get and set the scroll bars position (pixel position). For example, if the user changes the scroll bars position and then refreshes the page, we need to take the user at the same point where he was before refresh. For this I need to get the respective scroll bars positions before refresh and then set it to the saved position after load. I have got the positions by hPostion and vPosition but now when I try to save the values back to the same properties after refresh it doent work.
View 2 RepliesI have a tween set on a timer:
var manTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,14);
manTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveMan);
function moveMan(e:TimerEvent):void {[code]....
I just need to make the tween's position relative to it's current position, as opposed to starting at the stage's 0 position then moving the the stage's -40 position. It needs to start at its current position the move -40 from that position.
I'm hoping someone can solve this headache. Basically, I want a movieclip to move to the position of each of my buttons from any position along my x axis. Therefore, the movieclip needs to 'flip' to face the way it is traveling.At the moment I have the movieclip moving to the mouse x axis when I ROLLOVER the button and stop following the mouse when I ROLLOUT but the code won't flip the movieclip so I must have something wrong...
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,followCa t);
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,stopCat);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,follow Cat);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,stopCat );
[code]....
Basically the x position of the mouse should control the play position of a movie. Do I need something like an event handler (I'm not sure exactly what these do, but I've seen similar scripts that seem to use them).

This works fine but how can that be when surely you must access the red withen the background rather then just accessing red?
I have an Input Text area that users can edit and then submit. I need to be able to show, on screen, the cursor's current position as they type. I don't need to know where the mouse is but all work-arounds I've found so far can only tell me the mouse position. The font for the text is 'courier' or 'courier new' and the Input Text area is scrollable.
View 8 RepliesI've run into a new problem, this time with positioning. I've narrowed down the line that's causing it--"block.y = block.y + block.height;" in SetOfBlocks.shiftDown. When I take it out, no problem. But with it in, instead of just dropping each block down by a block height, the affected blocks sometimes move up, and also often move about randomly within the X axis--although their new positions always keep them lined up with the 'grid', which is to say, within multiples of the block height and widths.

View 1 RepliesI have a sprite that I zoom out using the sprite.z property. Once the z property has been modified the sprite x and Y values do not match the stage x and y real value. So far so good and what I was expecting!
What I want to accomplish is that when the user clicks the stage the sprite tweens to where the mouse was clicked but I don't know what x and y position to send to the sprite. ( since stage 200,200 is something like 400,400 for the sprite depending on z value)
I tried Utils3D.projectVector using Matrix3D of the perspectiveProjection of the stage without success. (i.e. I get Vector3D(Infinity, Infinity, NaN))
I could fallback to scalex/scaley but sprites.z gives me the correct scale, perspective projection, paralax scrolling since I have sprites on different z level all for free. I would have to recode all that.
lets say i have a sprite on the stage and one movieclip inside it. now i want to tween or just set that movieclip x and/or y position according to stage position. so for example i want to set mc.y = - 100; (by which i mean -100 to stage, not sprite which mc is in.)
View 2 RepliesI am developing a video player, in that full screen mode option. I have given the following code for width and height of the video
ActionScript Code:
flash.system.Capabilities.screenResolutionX
flash.system.Capabilities.screenResolutionY
The problem is the y position and x position is not at the left top of my monitor. it is varying when I change the dimension of the file. I also tried with stage.stageHeight and stage.stageWidth etc. but no reaction.
What i'd like to do is have a menu/site map that adjusts when you click on a certain icon. For example, I have a AS3.0 flash file with, say, 5 keyframes with 5 buttons that are in different positions on each key frame. The buttons are set to gotoAndPlay the various keyframes. I can set up a tween that links frame 1 to 2, 2 to 3 etc. but what I would like is a tween from, say, 1 to 3, then 3 to 5, then 5 to 1 - basically in a random order rather than sequentially through the key frames. I could set each of these tweens up individually but the site is for a portfolio that I would like to keep adding to and to do this individually would mean an ever increasing amount of tweens.Basically, is there a way to get a 'MovieClip' to move from Position A in keyframe 1 to Position B in another keyframe without a set of tween frames? I'm sure this is simpler than I am making it sound but I don't seem to be able to work it out.
View 1 RepliesI have a swf file. I don't have the flash file that goes with it. It is nothing but a holder for an flv or some flash-like movie format, and I can't extract it via importing, so all I get is blank frames. I just want to make it loop without paying hundreds for a swf decompiler.

View 5 RepliesIf I have several items that move across the screen but the user can click any of them at any time, how do I record the current position of any of the items item in order to use that data to change the position of the item after the user clicks?
This is what I am doing: I have 11 images that slide accross the screen. The user can click any of them at any time. When he clicks one I am scaling the image so it looks like it is comming forward (z axis) and then the rest of the images are scaled down so it looks like they are going back on z axis. So what I am trying to do is get the current position of the image when the user clicks the image so that I can use that to correctly estimate the scaling and moving of the image to make it look like it scales from the center and not from the top left corner. So if have a variable that gets the current position of the image being clicked I'm thinking I can change its position using something like: x = currentposition + -45;
