ActionScript 2.0 :: Mac IE And Dynamic Image Positioning?
Nov 24, 2004
I'm using MX 2004 for a photographic portfolio project. The site seems to work fine on 99% percent of systems. Unfortunatley a strange error occus when viewing the site with IE on Mac OSX.I a dynamically loading images using LoadMovie and repostioning them so that they are centred. Sometimes with Mac IE the image doesn't get centred and is loaded with the top left corner in the centre of the screen as it would had the repositioning not happened.
This only happens sometimes and only with some images and with different images each time.I can reproduce the effect on my Mac but am stumped as to why it happens.I have ruled out the flash player version (it happens with them all) and have tried numerous export settings.Here's the code for the loading and repositioning and the link,
_root.images.createEmptyMovieClip("holder1", 1001);
_root.images.holder1.loadMovie("flashimagesmac/mike.jpg");
//loader[code]....

how would you go about positioning a MC in the top right hand corner - a few pixels. And How to get it to stay even on Resize? to get it to stay in that corner so it moves with the screen resize?

Been working w/ Flash for some time now, but mainly on the timeline and only a bit with AS. I am working w/ a tutorial:
[URL]
This particular portion of code is supposed to center the movieClip to the stage, but it is not working for me
target_mc._x = (Stage.width - target_mc._width)/2;
target_mc._y = (Stage.height - target_mc._height)/2;
I added some animation to it as well here:
var xScaleT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_xscale", Elastic.easeOut, 50, 100, 3, true);
var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_yscale", Elastic.easeOut, 50, 100, 3, true);
And added this part just in case the tween was affecting it:
var xPosT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_x", 0, (Stage.width - target_mc._width)/2, 3, true);
var yPosT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_y", 0, (Stage.height - target_mc._height)/2, 3, true);
But it only fixes the centering on the y-axis.

I'm quite new in ActionScript (but I know the basics). Well anyway, I have a small problem. I'm doing this fake panorama to my site and I've used this Interactive Image Panning code I found here at kirupa.com. Now I have added some buttons into it and by pressing those I would like the image to move to a specific position (with ease if it's possible) and stop. And by pressing another button the panning starts again. Is it possible to add to this code? (I have made some little modifications to the code. There is a mask area where the panning works and if your mouse is outside the area the panning doesn't work)

How can I take a loded image and with actionscript position it at say 45 degrees (3d, not 2d) so that it looks like I'm looking from one side. It would have a 3d look.

URL...Its a dynamic positioning template, basically.I'm importing docked_icons.swf onto the stage via the holder movie clip (at the end). However, the position is messed up until I resize the window. From there, it's perfect. How do I set the initial position to be correct?[code]

In the current project for my schools interactive yearbook(new development). Im trying to create a grid table within a createEmptyMovieClip, by attaching a movie clip from the library, and populating it with an external xml, that i populate a few arrays too.
As of now im just trying to get the basic portion of it down. I see it as if i can create a "page" without having to dublicate the page, then i can easly do it with the multipul pages.
In a nut shell, when i publish my fla, i only get 2 images, when i should have 23, which is the number of childNodes that are in the external XML file...
Im going to attach my souce, and i'll point out the portion that im having issues with:
stop();
import mx.utils.Delegate;
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

Scene: 450 px width. and the boxes (instance name:dot) are 50 px each.
The AS on the timeline:
// IMAGE
PHP Code:
gridx = 60; gridy = 60;
num = 0; mcArray = [];
dot._visible = 0;
for (var i = 0; i<21; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j<1; j++) {
var mc = dot.duplicateMovieClip("dot"+num, num);
[Code] .....
And when It start to slide after a little time the images start to stack on top of each other. How can I solve this ?

This is probably a beaten subject but even after reading many post a couldn't understand how to go about it.After doing the following:
PHP Code:
this.crateEmptyMovieClip("myMC",this.getNextHighestDepth());myMC.loadMovie("image.jpg");
-would it be possible to set the _x and _y of image.jpg relative to myMC?You see moving myMC and then loading the picture into it will not me because myMC is to be scaled and manipulated, so its axis must be in the center of the loaded image.

I'm working on a banner ad project where we're trying to send dynamic variables from one of our servers to position a movieclip that simply slides in from offstage and then does a little bounce. My AS2 frame script at the beginning of the tween sets the _x and _y properties of the clip successfully. But that seems to destroy all the movement of the tween. In other words, when I set those two positioning properties on the clip, it just sits there and no longer slides in or bounces. I've tried a lot of different values, but they all seem to kill the movement of the tween.

I am loading an XML file into several textboxes. Each group of textboxes is contained in a movieclip. There is a textbox in each group that varies in height and I want to put each movieclip underneath each other. So I need to get the height of the previous mc in my for loop so I can set the y position of the next mc. I am not quite sure how this is done, but here is my as3:

I have a MC called image_mc. When I load an image from XML, I want the centre of the image to be over the MC.Here is my code which isn't working. Currently, it positions the top left of the image at the MC regardless if the image is portrait or landscape.
Code:
pic = portfolioTag.childNodes[num].attributes.IMAGE;

I want to make a flash movie which will load image and its hyperlink dynamically from external source. I know this is very common over the internet and as per some of the tutor I've done loading the image part but not able to sort out how to hyperlink that Below is the code
Code:
myData = new LoadVars()
myData.load("anastasio.txt")
myData.onLoad = function(succes)
{
[code]....
The text file "anastasio.txt" just have this line "image=photo.jpg". "holder_mc" is a blank movie clip. The image is loading properly but I dont know how to hyperlink that!! Can any one let me know how to do that dynamically.
Also, this is a very simple way of loading the image from text file but in real this will come from DB. The Admin will insert the image name and the url in DB and uploads the image to a specific folder from where the flash will load that image. I'm thinking what could be a better way from below to do the above stated task:
1) On insertion into DB, I need to create an XML file from DB fetching the image name and url and writing them to XML file. And every time the flash will load these from XML file instead of connecting to DB server.
2) No XML file. The flash will communicate with a PhP page which will fetch the records from DB and give it to flash for loading
I know both the ways for loading data into flash i.e. from XML or DB. I just wanted to know which could be the best!! In my opinion, XML file would be a better option since no DB connectivity every time on website but there will be only one record at a time which will get changed once in every month which is preventing me from creating XML file for just 1 record!!!

I have been trying to figure out how to create this movieclipI have a bunch of images which is laid out horizontally (x axis). The functionality is very simple, when I click on the movieclip it will allow me to drag it from right to left and vice versa. This part is simple enough. I face a problem when it comes to the end and the beginning of the movieclip. How do I make it undraggable when it reaches the end of the movie clip and vice versa when I drag it back to the beginning.

Trying to make a dynamic gallery that pulls images (along with names and dimensions) from different folders on the server. Want clients to be able to drop new images into these folders and have them pulled into the gallery dynamically. Do I need to use PHP as I did with AS2? or can AS3 pull the image names and dimensions from the folders on the server?

I am creating an image dynamically on flex. This images changes (as in changes image source) when the user clicks on it. Images are PNG format and I replace it with this code:
img.source = PATH_TO_IMAGE;
The problem with this is when I replace the image is it is not smooth even if you set the image property to smoothBitmapContent.
Is there a way to smoothen images when you are trying to replace the source?

I am using Flash 8. For the site I planned to use dynamic text boxes for each page so my client can update the pages. There is no text, just an image.
Go to: [URL] After the intro, click on Featured Listings, Buyers Needs or Bio & References.
The image is distorted. Also, for some reason the dynamic text box is about 350px and the image size displayed needs to be 525 to fit correctly.
Here is the action script I used:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function(){
myText_txt1.htmlText = this.content;

I have a flash file that is pulling images in dynamically from a PHP page. The images will come in all different sizes so I need to resize them once they are loaded to fit in the containers that they are being loaded into...I thought onEnterFrame was the best way to do this? So I have the following:
Code:
onEnterFrame = function (){
for (i = 0; i < 9; i++){

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.

My question is related to putting a border around an image. I am dynamically loading images from an xml file and they appear as thumbnails. I want to put a 1 or 2 pixel black border around the image when I load it. The problem that I see is that some of the images are portrait and others, landscape. I hope there is a way to do this in AS? I have searched the forum but nothing.
