ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Show MovieClip Inside Created Scrollpane
Jan 10, 2004
I create a super simple .fla using flash MX 2004 professional. I put this code under the button I created.
on (release) {
var mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("trianglemajor", 1);
mc.createEmptyMovieClip( "triangle", 5000);
with (mc.triangle) {
lineStyle (5, 0xff00ff, 100);
[Code] .....
I just see a blank screen when I click on the button. My objective is to show the movieclip mc inside my created scroll pane?
I have the content of a scrollpane that, when clicked, show a tooltip movieclip with attachMovieClip; the problem is that the attached movie clip, for the first rows, goes under the border of the ScrollPane and is partially invisible.
Is there a way to solve this problem (without changing the position of the attached movie clip?)
I have a ScrollPane component to stage and I give it as source a new MovieClip instance. How can I access the movieclip inside scrollpane? This is what I have so far but it returns null:
var regForm = new RegistrationForm(); regForm.name = "rForm"; regFormSP.source = regForm; var form = Object(regFormSP.content).getChildByName("rForm"); trace(form) // returns null
[Code]..
There is an object "instance20" as a parent to rForm...Why is that?
I have a MC that is too tall for my stage and want to place it inside a ScrollPane. The probelm is accessing functions inside the MC. I have tried scrollpane.content.mc.function but that doesn't work. How do you access a mc inside tghe scrollpane?
how to build a button inside a movieclip. I have a template that has movieclips within movieclips, and when I create a button (all using AS2) the button will work if I test the scene, but in the whole flash movie it does not work. I also have some buttons located inside a ScrollPane that also do not call correctly.

I have a couple buttons that work outside of the ScrollPane but don't work within it. This is my exact code, how do I get them to work? scrollPane.source = myContent; scrollPane.setSize(173,500); K1Button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playVid); function playVid(e:MouseEvent):void{ myVideoPlayer2.myFLV2.source = "video/K.mp4"; [Code] .....
I'm using a movieClip inside a ScrollPane to show a list of CheckBoxes. The amount of CheckBoxes shown is dynamic, it depends on a SQL query. After the query is done, I add as many CheckBoxes as rows in the result set. What I am trying to do is to access some methods I wrote in the MovieClip inside the ScrollPane to get the length of the CheckBoxes, check which ones are selected and the label they have (their label is also defined by the SQL query).
I've tried this valueINeedToGet = Object(root).scrollPaneInstance.source.functionINeedToRun(); But it returns error #1006 How can I access the code inside the MovieClip inside the ScrollPane?
I'm a beginner actionscripter, so I hope you will take that into account when replying. The problem I am having is that a client has asked me to place a call to action button inside a textbox that scrolls. My idea was to create a movieclip containing the text and the button, then place that movieclip inside a scroll pane. I've been monkeying around with it all day and have made minimal headway. I'm not even sure of the best way to accomplish this.
If one of you learned actionscripters out there could point me in the right direction, perhaps I can find my own solution. The client wants me to use custom icons for the scrollbars, and as altering a scrollbar component seems like such a PIA, I'm trying to avoid using components.
I have a MovieClip inside a ScrollPane. Inside this MovieClip i have buttons. What i want to know is: how to click a button inside a Movie Clip, that is inside a scrollpane, and make it load a swf outside the scrollpane?
I'm trying to create a movieclip and load a "frame" image inside of it, then create another movieclip inside of the first, and then load another picture inside of the second. Something like this:
var thumbFrame; var thumbPicture; thumbFrame = container_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(thumbFrameName, 1);[code]..........
But it doesn't seem to work the way I want: the "thumbPicture" doesn't appear on top of the "thumbFrame" as I expected... only the "thumbFrame" shows (with it's image succesfully loaded). Am I missing something?
EDIT: If I comment this: //thumbFrame.loadMovie("thumbFrame.png");
The thumbPicture.jpg shows inside of the first movieclip, so maybe the issue is with the .loadMovie?
I'm having trouble to center any dynamic content (movieclips, textfields...) inside a dynamically created movieclip, which has a default point of interested in the top left corner.
PS: Just as an example, I have a dynamically created text field inside a dynamically created movieclip....and when I try to scale that movieclip I need to scale it from its center
I have created the MainMovieClip and Scrollbar as follow ....
my problem is that when I input japanese characters,the characters display at the top corner of the swf until I confirm the input. if I install FlashPlayer "flashplayer10_1_rc2_plugin_041910", then the japanese characters display in the textfield normally....why is that???
with flash player 10.0, I can't input the japanese characters in the textfield.
var mcMain:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcMain", this.getNextHighestDepth()); scrp.contentPath = "scrollMovieClip";
I am trying to create a gallery where each thumb is housed inside of it's own movie clip that will have more data, but it keeps failing because it won't let me refer to the newly created instance of the movie clip. Below is what I am trying to do.
var xml:XML; var xmlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("xml.xml"); var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

It dies every time on that last line. How do I refer to that vidThumbn instance so I can add the imageLoader? I don't know what I'm missing. It feels like it should work.
This all works well, but if I've updated a user(s) information, I'd like for my scrollpane to be updated as well. Is it possible to update a scrollpane's source attribute?
I've just used the accordion component in flash to successfully load some external data into it.For the purpose I want to use it, the accordion is a good option.However, as you keep adding more and more elements into it (and, presumably, there will eventually be lots of them in this project), the headers start to take up more and more space, up to the point that you can't see the content.So yes, I made it so that the accordion adjusts its size depending on the number of elements it needs to display each time. And that works fine.BUT... then, there's a point where the accordion is just too big for the stage... so it doesn't fit, and you can't see part of it.I thought it would be possible to insert the accordion inside a ScrollPane, but I can't make it work.
The first step would be to put the accordion component inside a new MC. But when I do that and test the movie, I get a very weird behaviour of the component. It loads the content, but at first only half of the component shows up. Then when you click some items, they don't display properly and do weird things.Still, I went forward and tried to put that MC inside a scrollPane (gave the MC a linkage name, etc.), but still the scrollPane seems to display a "blank" accordion inside it, not the one with the content.Is it possible at all to get a working accordion inside a ScrollPane? If not, can you think of any other way to make the accordion component "scrollable" so that it can have whatever size is needed, and still be usable?
I have the following code for my buttons (not in a scrollpane), but when I try to add additional (addEventListener) strings to correspond with buttons in a scrollpane I get these error messages (1120: Access of undefined property smith. 1120: Access of undefined property thomas.). I've tried using the script in an actions layer within the MC inside the scrollpane to no avail
I have my scrollpane on the stage, I have created the mc and exported it and linked it to the scrollpane, I have created a button on layer 1 inside the mc linked to the scrollpane and I have created a 2nd layer for as3. Below is the AS3 that I have used. When I export the mc to view the scrollpane everything works apart from the buttons itself. I can see everything but the buttons wont link to the webpage.

I'm using a scrollpane for a loaded external swf file. Scroll works fine but I want to add exra buttons to control the file such as size and position. If this is regular movie you can simply add the instance name and call it but in this cane since it's inside of component I don't know how I can reach it... The component is named "mySp" and the loaded swfg file is called "photography.swf" which I set it up in parameters tab under "contentpath"
So i have a scrollpane with a movieclip in it. Inside the movieclip i put static text that says "Email Eric" and linked it with mailto:sales@signsetconline.com but when i test the movie it won't work. So basically i need to know how to link an email to something inside a scrollpane.
Is it possible to create anchor links in text within a scrollpane. I created text with a list of questions at the top of the list and answers at the bottom of the list. I want to be able to click on a question and jump down the list to the answer within the scrollpane. Similar to anchor links in html.
I need to use a ScrollPane in my site to show several photos.My site is set up to load MC's to the MainStage using attachMovie.One of my MC's is named Photos. If I add a ScrollPane to Photos with content called Pics (another MC containing all the photos.) it won't scroll What is the proper method of adding a ScrollPane to a MC called with attachMovie?
I just want a scrollpane with thumbnails. When you click on the thumbnails a larger version loads right above. Anyone know how to do this? I have been scouring the internet trying to find an answer with no luck.
I'm using the Adobe supplied scroll pane component. The scroll bar is too wide and I would like to change it. But I can't figure out a way to get to it.
I created a scrollpane which contains several different buttons. Each button does a simple timeline navigation, but won't function inside of the scrollpane. I just need each button to 'gotoframeandstop'. How can I make these buttons work in a scrollpane?
