ActionScript 2.0 :: Linkage Identifier And Embedded Movie Clips
Feb 29, 2008
I am having referencing a linked movieclip.
I have a scroll pane with the instance name menuScroll. The scrollPane loads a linked movie clip called menuDropMC with the same instance name. MenuDropMC also loads several instances of a linked movie clip called moduleNameMC with the same instance name. The moduleNameMC contains a button called moduleBtn. I am trying to disable this button from root.
The moduleNameMCs are generated dynamically and are followed by a number using a for loop.("moduleNameMC"+i)
e.g. moduleNameMC0, moduleNameMC1, moduleNameMC2, etc.
I have tried the following:
_root.menuScroll.menuDropMC.moduleNameMC0.moduleBt n.enabled = false;
menuScroll.menuDropMC.moduleNameMC0.moduleBtn.enab led = false;
menuDropMC.moduleNameMC0.moduleBtn.enabled = false;
moduleNameMC0.moduleBtn.enabled = false;

I have a problem with loading SWF and access to their elements by class linkage in Adobe AIR 2.6 for Android.
Problem: I have two different .swf files:
file1.swf (in which MovieClip with name1 has class linkage 'mainScreen')
file2.swf (in which MovieClip with name2 has class linkage 'mainScreen')
They have some action script code, which I need to import in my application domain. Files downloading great. After downloading they are in differen app domains But when I'm getting elements by class linkage and add them to stage - only element which was loaded second is shown. Looks like second movieclip with same class linkage replaces the first one.
For this I'm using such approach:
how can I load two different elements SWF files, which have elements with same class linkage, or explain why I can not do this? When elements have different class linkages - all OK. But!!! It is working for web, but for air it don't want to work.

**Warning** The linkage identifier 'ComboBox' was already assigned to the symbol 'ComboBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'GUI MC/Combo Boxes/abc', since linkage identifiers must be unique.**Warning** The linkage identifier 'ComboBox' was already assigned to the symbol 'ComboBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'GUI MC/Combo Boxes/def', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
Both of my ComboBoxes has the same identifier.I could not change the identifier through the properties tab because it is greyed out.

I have my flash document set up in the following way: On the main timeline I have my buttons that I want to play movie clips embedded inside a movie clip on the main timeline.However, when I click each different button, the current movie clip stops playing and then the movie clip corresponding to the button plays.
I want them all to be able to play at once. So for example you push button 1 and the alien plays, but half way through you could click button 2 and the alien clip would keep playing, but also the helicopter clip would begin to play as well.Here is the code I have so far:
building_btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, alien);
building_btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, helicopter);
function helicopter(e:MouseEvent):void {[code]......

I am using Flash CS5 but working on an old fla file from a few years ago (which uses an AS2 file as its code).I have to recompile the fla, because I changed a few tiny things in the AS code, so I saved it as CS5, recompiled and published...The original fla file embeds the font _sans, but it exports it twice (so the AS code could use it), each time with a different identifier.The problem is that only one identifier is working in the final swf. Text boxes that use other identifier do not show any text at all.So I guess there is a collision? Is it not allowed to export a single font twice with two different identifiers? How to solve this problem?Fla rules for embedding fonts might have changed since the old fla has been written... because its old swf did show text for both the identifiers.

I have attached a video on a frame of my website in Flash. When I preview the movie the film plays as it should.But when I export the Fla. as a Swf. file it then doesn't have the movie there anymore?It does show this error:
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'Video/FLVPlayback', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
I really don't know what that refers too.

i have embedded all of my different fonts in the library - (ie Regular, Bold, Semibold versions)When I try to call those fonts via their linkage name from my CSS file, they just don't appear at all.. NO test appears in fact.I can only get them to appear when I refer to them by their "real" name ie NOT: ChapProSemBold - Only: Chaparral Pro Semibold I can only get the variations of the font appearing together when embedfonts = false, but then the text looks crappy - even with "antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED".
When I set embedfonts = true, the type looks good - but I don't get the variations anymore! I just get the standard font - not my bold or semibold.
My CSS is:
Code:
p {
font-size: 14px;
font-family:Chaparral Pro;

After a lot of experiments and reading many articles, Q&As, I still didn't find the answers to my problem, then I decided to ask my question at great stackoverflow forum:-)
The setup of my project is as follows:
- Create an AS3 project in Flash Builder 4 (Main.as3proj), and write source code in it;
- Create graphical assets in Flash CS5;
- Load the graphical assets in the AS3 project;
In the graphical assets (swfs), there are text fields, we would like to use Embedded fonts for the text fields. But we don't want to embed the fonts in all swfs, we want to create a swf as a font library (FontLib.swf), that embed all the fonts needed across all the graphical assets (swfs).
After loading or embedding the FontLib.swf to the main application (Main.swf), the embedded fonts is availabe: TextField.isFontCompatible(myFontName, myFont)
is true. And when I create a TextField with the embedded font at runtime, it works fine. But besides this, I want to use the embedded fonts for the TextFields in other graphical assets like what I described at the begging, but when I try to change the text for the dynamic text field in a movie clip, the text field will disappear. (Before changing the text, it can be displayed because Flash CS5 automatically embed the fonts for the characters already input in the fla/swf file).
I tried to clone the text field with the same properties of the text field in the movie clip and replaced the old one, as I said, this works as other text fields created at run time. But I have other problem with cloning and replacing the text fields in movie clip. I wonder if there is a way to instruct the flash player to use the externally loaded embedded fonts for the text fields in movie clip.

I'd like to control a movie clips current frame by another movie clips action script.I realise the following controls the outside (root) frame time line:
on(release){
_root.gotoAndStop(1);
}
but I'm not sure how to apply that to my other movie clip. I'm guessing it would be something like this:
on(release){
_*movie_clip_name*.gotoAndStop(1);
}

Flex complains if I want to create an object from a library symbol with linkage: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method [linkage name]. So to avoid this, I create a class for that symbol, in this case extending BitmapData using Flex's new ActionScript Class feature. Flex create that class for me and the constructor looks like this: public function CustomBitmapData(width:int, height:int, transparent:Boolean=true, fillColor:uint=null)

As most of you don't know, I've been creating an rpg game. And, after several tries of art making, etc, I have finally moved back into coding the game. And now, I'm stuck on the equipment system idea. At first, I thought I would just place a bunch of goToAndStop's for each movie clip to go to a frame that has that certain armor piece. This was my first idea for an equipment system. However, after doing some research, and realizing how much lines of code could be saved, I started looking into simply adding and removing movie clips from the character as my new equipment system idea. Now.... on to the problem.
Basic want/ overall achievement wanted: Create an equipment system, which will basically attach movie clips (items) onto characters, which themselves will already be attached movie clips on the stage.
Problem: What is the exact code to do this? And Is there a better way to do this for an equipment system (a less laggy or more efficient way perhaps that I'm not seeing; Check the code below to get a better idea of what I'm talking about)?
Part of the code (or basic idea of code; see comments for extra details
code:
//Don't worry I have an OnEnterFrame function here;
//attachedObj= the character; figure= the MC name of the character;
attachedObj = attachMovie("figure", "figure"+1, 1);

I have multiple movie clips on stage (all in separate layers, of course) as well as buttons on stage to play each movie clip. There are buttons inside each movie clip. The problem is that the buttons inside the top layered movie clip work, but the others in the movie clips below don't.

Here's what I'm trying to do (in example form): I have a movie clip called "dude". Dude is animated to walk around, then drop a cigar (all inside the movie clip). But the problem is, dude moves, so if you try and move dude as the cigar is dropping, the cigar moves with him. So what I want to do is create a new movie clip instance called "cigar" OUTSIDE of the movie clip dude right as he's dropping it, so that you can move him without moving the cigar. Get it? I've attached another helpful animation to explain.
What I have right now is, on the 13th frame of dude, a few lines of code that create and place an instance of cigar. In that frame I also have an invisible instance of cigar for me to duplicate. Inside of the cigar movie clip is the animation that makes it fall to the ground. I need to change that code so that the instance of cigar is created outside of the movie clip dude. Here's the code I have now (inside of dude, on frame 13):

I have a problem stopping multiple clips. I have created a presentation using flash and I have many movie clips which have sub movie clips inside of them. Ok lets look at one movie clip in detail. Inside one _root movie there are multiple sub movies; each with a different movieclip labels (each movie clip is named with unique labels ie. north, south, east, west, and What I need to do is be able to STOP all these sub movie clips with one stop, and in turn PLAY these same movie clip with a second action.
The only way I know how to stop all these sub movie clips is to target each and every one individually.

I've been trying to reproduce an animation effect I've seen on the Armani website, but I'm stuck trying to duplicate an empty movie clip with image loaded into it. The duplicates exist and I can move them, but they are invisible. Since the duplicates reside on depths above the intitial clip I'm confused about why they are invisible. The duplicates are scripted to follow behind the initial clip - each offset by 30 pixels (though I don't have that working perfectly).

okay, i'm trying to create a full website myself, and inside my main scene movie, i have a movie clip for the content.. inside THAT clip on a frame for the links, i have another movie clip that has all the link buttons embedded... i've got those buttons set up so they stagger fade in as an effect... my problem is, they just keep repeating, and i want the fade in effect to stop after the first time. i've got a stop keyframe after the tween of every button motion, but i dont know the correct code for the movie/button clip itself to play once and then stop.. this is what i have right now, as an action on the movie clip with the buttons inside it:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
play();
}
