ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Dynamic Image Into Movieclip?
May 13, 2005
I have a movieclip that I would like to load an image into. I can't even get it to load just a normal image...with, for example:
test_mc.loadMovie("http://www.trpsearchit.com/images/hw3image/hourly_KROC_rochester_ny_us_010066_ffffff_50035447 20.png");
That was just for test purposes, what I really want it to do is process this: "http://www.trpsearchit.com/cgi-bin/weather
/trpweather.cgi?forecast=hourly&pands=14626&config= png&alt=hwicc&hwvttf=&daysonly=1&hwvbg=010066&hwvt c=ffffff&hwvusettf=0"
I was thinking it would have to be in an IF statement, that when (loaded) then take the URL that it returns and have the movieclip load it. The test link (the first one) is the what the server processes when you type in the second link in your browser.....

1.I am doing a spinning wheel game, where the user gets 3 spins. After each spin, an image will display at the top of the wheel - of what they have won. At the end of the 3 spins they can then choose what they would like from the 3.Now, how can you display image like this? Would it be a 'Graphic' symbol or a 'Button' if it's a button (which i believe is the case) how can you display an image. In the code hint doesn't seem to be a parameter that you can edit to change a source.
2.I'm using Flash CS5 Pro, and i notice on a Lynda.com video that he goes to 'View->Simulate Download'. Mine doesn't have this, just before i publish would like to do a preloader but my version doesn't seem capable of doing it.
3.I was asked during work to make a form before my game starts, i'm wary about making significant edits like this because scared will break it.Is it easy/safe to insert a frame before it happens?
4. I have an EnterFrame event and it seems to play over and over again - as if it's on a loop, is this normal?
5. I have tried to publish my swf as html, but my movie would go from 1 dot aligned in the middle to 5, and back to 1 again.. like a preloader.. but it would never start.

I have an arrow image I want to pass a URL to dynamically. This image is in a movie where the content comes in via an XML and scrolls through a number of messages. Each message has its own destination URL, and I want this URL to be attached to the existing arrow so that the arrow image is a link. How do I do this?If this was just a textfield I'd do something like this:var myURL:String = "<a href='" + URLfromXML + "'> + someText + "</a>";field.htmlText = myURL;But of course this won't work since this isn't a text field, it's an image.

i'm messing around with senoculars example for doing a transition [URL]. the only problem is that he's using images that are being exported from the library. i want to use it by loading images dynmically but i can't figure out how. i don't know much about the bitmap class and have been failing on figuring it out for hours now.
the main function where the problem is:
Code:
function loadTransBitmap(id){
var tempbmp = flash.display.BitmapData.loadBitmap(id);
transbmp.copyPixels(tempbmp, tempbmp.rectangle, basepoint);
tempbmp.dispose();
}
the 'id' would just be a path of an image like "images/test.jpg"
i know you can't use loadBitmap for dynamic images and my logic is that i have to load the image in a movieclip, and then loadBitmap that movieclip but I can't seem to get that to work. i think in order to get the transition to work though i need to use that loadBitmap eventually.

The desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1;
var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1";
var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............

I have a dynamic text field that is loading an external .txt file with html coding in it. I can get the text to load and display properly, however I now want to make a custom scrollbar and I have no clue how to even get it to work.I want to make a custom one instead of using the component one. It doesn't even have to be a traditional scrollbar, I would much rather just use an up and down arrows. In the past I've just used buttons and placed AS directly onto them. However I guess you can't do that in AS3 so I'm lost!
Everything I find online involves converting everything to movieclips, however I can't get the dynamic text to load into a movieclip.The code that is loading the text into the text box is: (I don't know if that will help at all but I'm posting it anyways)
Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader (new URLRequest("About_Us.txt"));
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);[code].......

I am loading a video clip into an mc at certain times ...
//load video
var connection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
var stream:NetStream;
var video:Video=new Video(stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight);
var metaObj:Object = new Object();
var isPaused:Boolean=true;
[Code] .....
The video loads fullscreen initially and on resize because of my video var params (var video:Video=new Video(stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight). However, my image does not load fullscreen initially but does on resize. Are there params I can enter somewhere to allow my image to load fullscreen?

I have a class in which I create multiple thumbnails in a for cycle. In the library I have a movieclip for the thumbnails (ThumbnailContainer). This movieclip contains another movieclip (imageContainer) with a mask and a container where the image should load (image). So in AS2 it would be ThumbnailContainerInstance.imageContainer.image. How can I load an image into "image" movieclip? The thumbnail class looks like this:
ActionScript Code:

I have got a dynamic text field that has had number placed into it by a using voting. What I'm trying to do is get actionscript to check the number (which I have assigned a variable to) and then based on if its less then 2, equal to 2 or more than 2 to get it to load a frame of another movieclip at a certain frame. Sorry not explaining it very well but heres the code:
[Code]....
votesForBatman is the variable I assigned to the final number in the Dynamic text field, with finalvoteresults being the movieclip that I want to load based on the votesForBatman dynamic text field variable. All are in the same movieclip so should not be an issue with_root or anything like that... Is it even possible to get a variable to load a movieclip?

i'm trying to attach/create a new empty movieclip to load an image into each time my function fires (function has setInterval on it).so far, my code works in that the first time it creates the empty clip and loads the pic in it, measures the loaded bytes and alpha fades in when it's loaded.when the function repeats however, the newly created clip is either not there or i am not referencing it correctly, or there's some problem with the way i'm trying to do this.I don't want to delete the previously attached clip since i'm alpha fading the new one to 100 on top of it.kind of a simple crossfade that way.here's my code:
Code:
startSlides=function(){
this._parent.largePic.createEmptyMovieClip("clipp"+i, 5);
this._parent.largePic["clipp"+i]._alpha=0;[code].....

I'm trying to load an image found in a xml file into a movieclip but am not having much luck... I get this error (I changed the path to shorten):
Error opening URL 'file:///Cpathonmycomputer/myflashproject/undefined'
the code I'm using looks like:
Code:
var _imgme =_xml.firstChild.childNodes[_currSong].childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
imgholder.loadMovie(_imgme[_currSong], 1);
imgholder is the MC on the stage, _currSong is the current xml child being read.

I have a 2 movieClips on stage. One is a holder to load the images into, the other has buttons nested inside. The button will not load the image.
Here's the code:
btn1.onRelease = function() {
holder.loadMovie("one.jpg");
}
I'm sure that it's due to _root or similar but I'm not too sure how to apply it properly if so. I've attached the .fla

I am in the middle of building a kind of image editing application.Basically the user uploads their picture and then can draw on it, (sounds silly I know!).I was toying around with allowing them to just upload their file onto my server where it would be saved and then they could edit it through flash, but I don't want the responsibility of ****, child **** cyber bullying etc going on on my webspace!!
So I'm trying just "loadMovie" with the local path of a file, but it is not loading when I put the swf on the web! It all works fine locally but not on the web?Is there some security bypass I can write into my actionscript that will allow this?

I have been working on code updation project wherein initially we had an image and text as movieclips in fla library. The image and the text are read by the actionscript program which then creates an animation.[code]...
I want to ease the updation process by giving the url of the image in an XML file. Read the image url from the xml and load this image in the library of the fla as movieclip. This, i think, will result in less code change and improve the updation of the final animation image.
The problem i am facing is not been able to figure out how can i change the image (after fetching its URL) to a movieclip and then load it in the library?
