ActionScript 2.0 :: Keeping MovieClip Centered In Middle Of Browser
Sep 13, 2006
I'm building a website here and It's a fullscreen flash site. Everything is grouped into an MC on the main timeline. This main MC has a Navigation MC with buttons in it and a Content MC. And I'm using this code on the MC to keep it all centered in the browser:
[AS]Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
main._x = Stage.width/2;
main._y = 0;
function tweenmain(easeType) {
[Code] .....
And when I run this swf in an html file, it doesn't center in the middle of the browser... It's way over to the right. It just wont stay in the center of the browser window like its supposed to...

Hate to drop some bribe on my first post and all but I need answers fast and if any of you have been waiting for as long as I did for a demonoid acct you should be able to figure this out real fast Anyone with some decent flash/as2 skills should be able to figure this out real quick. First one to send back a working file gets the invite code.Ok long story short I purchased a fullscreen xml gallery from FlashDen that is supposed to resize. Here is the link to the demo...Well problem is it only resizes the images based on their width and not their height. (Panorama would show fine but a tall portrait would just go off the page) You will notice in that demo how the resizing is fixed to the side of the painting and not the bottom.
Well, to me this seams useless because I really need every user to be able to see the full pictures no matter what screen resolution they are at and no matter how they adjust their browser window.Believe me when I come posting on threads it means I have spend many many hours trying to figure it out myself...In this case I have spent 30 hours trying to solve this in the last two days....Now I am over the deadline I gave to my client/family member and am still at square one basically.Also note I have figured out how to make it so that it fixes to the bottom and thus shows the tall images in full but when I do this it is no longer centered in the page.
I am really tired and worn out but would love to work with someone's advice to make this a reality.Attached is everything you would need. Please note that by downloading this attachment you are agreeing to only using these files to your new friend Sean and would never think about using this for your own project.Attachment is too big...~3Mb so I had to put it on a server.. Grab it here.
if(heightRatio<widthRatio){
eval(getResizeClip)._width = widthRatio*bgWidth;
eval(getResizeClip)._height = widthRatio*bgHeight;

What I would like is to keep my original movie size (800x600) but have it centered both horizontally and vertically in the browser window. If the user expands the browser window, I'd like it to dynamically center itself both horizontally and vertically in the new window size.There is one that fits what I need, but it doesn't work properly. [URL]The current result when I use this in the HTML file is that everything is enlarged past the window size (and I end up with scroll bars), and the flash item is not centered.

I found a page that launches a full-screen browser window with a SWF in it. This SWF is non-resizable, and it is centered inside a browser window in such a manner, that both bottom AND TOP get cut off if the screen size is smaller than that of a flash file.Usually an embedded SWF would be tied to top left corner of the browser window in case of a smaller screen. In other words, top edge and left edge of a SWF file would always start at 0, 0 if the screen is too small. URL...Java script on the index page launches the full-screen browser window. But what makes the movie inside that window perfectly centered, even on a smaller (i.e. 800x600) screen, letting its BOTH bottom AND TOP edges be clipped? Is there some flash code for it? I couldn't find anything in the html code.

some browser sizes it looks fine but at others because the mc uses the browser window width and heigth/2 to find the middle of the stage.But at some sizes the half of the browser windows becomes an uneven number, which is blurring the pixel fontthe pixel font is in the mcSite mc) How can I solve this?
My code:
Stage.scaleMode = 'noScale';
Stage.align = 'TL';

it should be a basic task but i cant figure out how to keep a swf from scaling to the size of the browser window. Im making a web site and i want to keep the swf in the centre while showing the entire swf ( ive got over hanging images i want to show), if i can do that and have it embedded in html would be best but anything helps. Ive tried the fscommand but dosent seem to effect within a browser.

I have a flash element on my page that you interact with by using the middle mouse scroll wheel. The page is long. So when scrolling with the mouse wheel it interacts with the Flash element AND scrolls the browser window.
Is there a way to disable browser scrolling while the Flash element is active?

I am having a problem trying to center a movieclip within an externally loaded swf. To test, I placed one instance of the movieclip on the first frame of the timeline on child.swf and centered it and the other is displayed using actionscript. They both align perfectly when I test the swf. The problem is that when I load this swf into another movie (parent.swf) they are no longer aligned with each other. I used this code to align the movieclip in child.swf. It works fine when I open child.swf on it's own but when I load child.swf into parent.swf the movieclips are not aligned.

I'm trying to set up an expandable clip that resizes with the browser window with a main clip centered over the top. I know it has something to do with a stageListener.

ive seen the tutorials on centering a jpeg to a movie clip when its loaded but they are actually cheating . All they do is load it in the center of the stage and not the center of the actual movieclip. This was working fine untill i decided to upload it on the web. And now its all screwed up because i think its trying to recalcuate what the "center" of the stage is everytime u resize ur broweser window. For anyonen who doesnt know the code im talking about here it is:
_root.container._x = Stage.width/2;
_root.container._y = 50;
_root.container._alpha = 0;
[Code]....
Is there a better "proper" way of doing this? Im surprised Adobe didnt fix this in cs3...
oh yea heres the link if u want to see what i mean. Click on illustration and then click on the different pieces. This is reeeaaally wierd.[URL]

I am having problems with a MovieClip, basically it can be moved arround with the mouse and it is resizeable but when i move it arround or enlarge the movieclip (when its in a published format) i want to constrain it to an area such as 400 width by 400 height.Because at the moment you can drag or resize the movieclip ouside the whole frame, which i dont want. i want to constrain it to a set area.

chimera-studio.com/misery.fla Any ideas as to why this won't work?? It's such a simple concept...
I have this code on the middle frame of a movieclip in my main timeline. When the nav buttons are pressed they play an animation and report their names to a variable called "navigation" that's declared in the first frame of the main timeline.

I have 4 image movieclips nested inside of a "strip" movieclip and want to move horizontally to the next image using a mouse event. It is not centering and I don't understand why the if statements aren't working.
import fl.transitions.Tween;import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var targetX:Number = (stage.stageWidth / 2 - strip.img02.x - strip.img02.width) / 2;
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(strip, "x", Elastic.easeOut, strip.x, targetX, 3, true);
rightbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, right);
function right(e:MouseEvent):void{

I'm new to AS 3.0 and I don't get this fluid thing fully. Everything works fine when I want my movieclip to align to the middle of the screen but when I try to make a button (or any movieclip) always align to bottom right I can't figure out how. Here's my AS, how do I make the "ball_mc" align bottom left?
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeListener);
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;

I have created a portfolio which is supposed to give the impression that it is my windows desktop that you are looking at. I have made it so that I can drag MSN Messenger around now, but I have come upon a problem I can't figure out.
I have two movieclips representing my windows. One for the open window, which contains the animation to open a windown from minimized, and the window in open state. And one which contains the animation of the window closing. The problem is that when I start to drag the movieclip, I don't know how to "lock" the close movieclip to the open moviclip, so that they remain op top of eachother. Also, the position on the stage the windows gets minimized to(and maximized from) moves with the movieclip, making it look stupid if you minimize a window after having dragged it. Look on "Om Mig" on the site to see what I mean.
Here is the site
Is there a way to fix the other movieclip to the drag, and is the a way to fix the position the windows tween to when they are minimize and maximized, after the movieclips have been dragged?[code]...

I have 2 container MovieClips (mc1, mc2), each of them has a separate x,y, rotation. I want to take a child from mc1 and addChild() it to mc2 while keeping the same x, y, and rotation on the screen so you see the added child mc as if it didnt change position or rotation, just moved to the other MC.

I have a full browser image slideshow. It works fine. I have a top menu with some buttons and with each one of them I would like to load a new slideshow swf on top of the existing one while still using the full browser layout. Is it possible to load the new external swf so that it will match the size of the first one? I have been trying numerous times...and the new swf I load always appears offset.

I want a movieclip in my swf file that will float a given number a pixels from the left side of my browser window. I have made my swf file trasparent and things outside of my stage show up and so far I have an actionscript code that will only use my stage size and I want the browser window size to control it.

I want to have a background movieclip of my SWF stretch to fill the browser window. I know there is a way to detect the size of the browser window in ActionScript, but I am unsure how to tell a movieclip to use those dimensions. I don't need to worry about changing the proportion of the movie clip as it is just a solid color

I'd like to find out how to know whether an object is centered (its 0,0 coords are on the center point as happens by default to objects which are created on edit time) or left aligned (its 0,0 coords are located on its top left corner, as happens by default to objects which are created dynamically), so that I can apply different actions to it in order to zoom it in/out always from its center point.

I have swf files which have some drawing in its center. When I load these in a container, i can read width and height of the drawing.
I now want to draw a rectangle around this drawing.
The dimensions width and height are correct but the loaded drawing is not at 0,0.
How can I get the actual relative location of the loaded shape?
