ActionScript 2.0 :: Load An External Swf With LoadMovie And Set It To New Width Height?
Oct 2, 2009
We sometimes get swfs at my job that doesn't match our standard banner width and height. We only have the swfs and not always able to get hold of the *fla.So we want to load the swf into our different standard banner size and show it.
How do I load the swf into a new *fla that has my standard stage width:995 and stage height: 150? Without distorting the swf to much. Swf could be loading into a MC or loading directly onto stage.I tried the loadMovie and loaded the swf into a empty MC. But I can't set the MCs width and height.
I'm loading an external video player SWF into a MC, but once loaded the size of the SWF is always wrong and for some reason takes up the whole stage area.
So i want to set the width and height of the SWF thats loaded. If i set the MC width/height then once the SWF loads it's no longer that size. So i have to have some kinda code, that says once the SWF has been loaded, to resize it to 360x240 pixels. [code]...
Is there a way to "read" the pixel size of a jpg image that just finished loading in a MovieClip? I am trying to resize the MovieClip to the image loaded. Right now, when an image is loaded, if it's not the same proportions as the loading MovieClip, it looks distorted.

I am using loadMovie to put an image onto the movieclip instance "mov_NowPlaying". The movieclip is sized to 56 X 56 on the stage, however, the image is around 120 X 120. I cannot seem to trace or change the width and height properties of the loaded image to 56 X 56. Here is what I have:
Code: Select allnewClam.clamTop.mov_NowPlaying.loadMovie("../videos/video3/meow.jpg", newClam.clamTop.mov_NowPlaying); newClam.clamTop.mov_NowPlaying.onEnterFrame = function () {
I got this frame i created and gave it a linkage name of : "myframe"
myframe has a picloader mc and a picmask mc..
I loop through attaching "myframe" at proper depths 12 times and once it is attached, i use loadmovie or loadclip to attach an image to myframe.picloader and enforce the mask onthe pic.
once I load the image, i do some tweening effects in AS but the width and height is no longer correct.
myframe is supposed to be 130 x 100 but now im getting 621 by 400.2.
I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.
My code is: Code: my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2; my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...
I'm am trying to load an external swf file using a different swf that is on a different domain. I have noticed that it is possible to use addChild on the external swf, but when I try to get its contents width and height using contentLoaderInfo I get a security sandbox error.it is possible to fix it by usingSecurity.allowDomain("*") andSecurity.allowInsecureDomain("*") in the external file.And now it's get tricky, the external swf file is a file that users upload to my site so I don't have control on the code so I can't add the "allowDomain" part.The second swf (the host file that loads the external file) is a file that I let others to embed on their site.The intresting thing is that when I share the host swf on facebook there is no problem, and I don't even need to add the code for "allowDomain" on the external file.I it makes a different, I use HTTPS protocol to access to the external swf

The second swf (the host file that loads the external file) is a file that I let others to embed on their site. The interesting thing is that when I share the host swf on facebook there is no problem, and I don't even need to add the code for "allowDomain" on the external file. I it makes a different, I use HTTPS protocol to access to the external swf. I tried to load the crossdomain.xml file, but no luck. What can I do? the only data I need to get on the external swf is its width and height to scale it to the host file.
I would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?
I am trying to load an external swf file. The swf width and height is small and I want to enlarge it when loading it. (My scene has large width and height). My current code could load the file but I am not sure how to enlarge the swf width and height.
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.swf"); var loader:Loader = new Loader() loader.load(request); addChild(loader);
I'm loading external swf and I want to check it's stage width and height, do you know how to do this? I dont want to check the width and height of the swf because it changes depending on which frame is currently playing in this swf...
I gave up on Flash heavy coding when it switched to AS3. Always thought it was less intuitive, longer, and a brand new language and I got tired of trying to keep up when most of my clients did not want to pay for a full flash site. But I got this client...
Here's the problem, I can load a swf into my main stage or into an MC , but I cannot find out anywhere how to set parameters or load into a level so it doesn't replace the current material or fix to a size that doesn't block my other material.[code]...
i'm using loadmovie() to load a youtube video player inside my flash website but i want to specify the width and height so it can fit my box.This is my code:
I have code here that allows a user to load an image from their local machine to the SWF (using FileRerence). The movieclip is 500x400 in size and I need the width of the selected image to resize to 500, and crop off any height beyond 400.
I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically load JPEGs and read their width/ height attributes before they actually land on stage. I have tried it once wherein I hide the targetted movie clip and try to utilize the INIT functin to check for initialize. This works pretty good except that a little dynamic animation I need tends to act a little later than it should creating a bug if u proceed immediately.

This is my first time ever constructing a web site ONLY using Flash 8. I normally just use elements here and there, and I am totally confused. The link to the project is here: [URL] I want the site to be set up so that when I click a button (at the bottom), an external .swf file loads into that gray box in the center. How do I start? Where do I start? I should be able to figure this out, but I am stuck.
I need to create a button with script, on rollover load an external swf into movieclip in AS3. This was able to create this in AS2, but I need to create this in AS3

I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?
