ActionScript 2.0 :: MovieClip.myVariable - Create In The Xml Loop No Longer Exist After Load A Picture Into It
Feb 16, 2007
The movieclip variables I create in the xml loop no longer exist after I load a picture into it. Specifically books[].url is undefined when you click the movieclip. What's going on?
I would like my picture to fade in, how do I do it? I load my image like this: var imageFolder:String = "main_pictures/"; var imageArray:Array = [imageFolder + "picture.png"]; //Container var imagecontainer:Sprite = new Sprite(); //Loop through the image array and load: [Code] .....
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've just finished a simple Flash 5 game in ActionScript. Everything about it works fine except when I try and turn it into a web page. After I create the page, the graphic controlled by the player no longer responds to the keyboard. Can anyone explain why this is and how I can fix it?
It seems that with as3, the error compiler is just waiting to get you.I have a function that loads in an external swf. Which swf depends on which button they click. So, it could be pic1.swf, pic2.swf, pic3.swf, etc.
function loadMovie(){ my_mc.addChild(my_Loader); addChild(my_mc);[code].........
When i test, I get "error: access to undefined property myVariable.
I want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:
on (release) { thisframe =+1 } [code]........
but it didn't work. I'm kind of new to any action script other than gotAndPlay, easy functions and all that.
I'm trying to learn how to load multiple images from an XML file, I have the XML file done with the image names and X,Y each one should be loaded on the screen, but I'm totally lost on the AS3 file.Here is the XML code: XML
I have a few MovieClips that are motion-tweened via the timeline. I have a function that places a glow filter on the tweened movieclip. The glow works, but... the movieclip no longer moves. I found that if I tween via actionscript (AS3) that it does tween. However, I have about 1000 movieclips, all w/ different tween properties.Is there a (much easier) walk around or am I going to have to code for a few days/weeks?
I'm a flash newbie and have created a slideshow so that all the photos fade in and fade out. I've done it so they kind of fade into each other. So the timelines on each layer overlap. I want this slideshow running as a continuous loop so I've put a gotoandPlay(1) function at the end of the movie. My problem is the final image (number7) fades out but I don't know how to get it fading into the first photo again. So after the 7th image (the 2 bridesmaids) the movie completely fades out and then starts again. Is there a way I could make the first and last photos fade into each other rather than the last one fading out and starting again. The movie can be viewed here- sorry it takes a little time to get to the last image! [URL].
Hi I am trying to create an image scroller that just scrolls images from point a to point b on load horizontally in an infinite loop. I just used a code snippet to move it horizontally but don't how to get it to stop and at point b and loop again from a.
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:
is there a way to create an if statement that would load a movie clip after a different movieclip is loaded.i have text_mc and scroll_mc. I dont want scroll_mc to load unless the content is loaded into the text_mc.I tryed to make an if statement sort of like a something used for a preloader but I must have been off just a bit because it was not working. I dont even know if it possible.
I Have the drag and drop working where you drag a text movieclip onto a picture of an object movieclip but having some problems. I know its something to do with the hitTest function but when i drop the word "cow" onto the picture of a dog it actually says this is correct by displaying the word cow above the picture of the dog when instead it shouldnt allow me to drop the text onto the picture which doesnt match.
Basically i need to know how to seperate the drag hitTest function for the DogPic/DogText so that it has its own function to detect a hit. At the moment you can see in the below code I have 1 hittest fucntion detecting both collisions when they need seperate functions I tried making a seperate function for each but it didnt work
I want to create a picture gallery in Flash. I want small thumbnail images all around the edges of the canvass (canvass will be a rectangle). When the user clicks on the thumbnail I want the image to be displayed in the centre of the rectangle in its full size. How do I create such a picture gallery? Is there a simple tutorial? Or simple template I can use anywhere?
A 3D rotating picture wherein you can manually interact with it. I believe you have to take pictures of different angles of an object, then compile them in some way, then do something with Flash?
I have a movie. In it are some buttons and a dynamic text field. When I press the buttons is should load text from a database into the dynamic text field. If I run the movie by itself (ie. not by LoadMovie()-ing it into a different movie) the dynamic text field gets filled with text and all is well and good. However, when I use LoadMovie() to load this very same movie into my main movie, the buttons no longer work; the text field stays empty.
i want to create an xml banner, but every picture to have her own timer, defined in the xml. for example i want my first picture to disappear after 5 seconds, the 2nd after 3 sec, the 3rd after 2 sec etc. my xml looks like this one:
Is there a simple way to create a picture gallery on flash?I literally want to have an image in the middle of the screen and use buttons on the left and right to scroll through the pictures?
Can't understand why: loadMovie("pict/my_picture.jpg",movieClip); the path seems to be correct, but Flash canīt load the picture. It works locally, although, but not on the server.
I am wondering if anybody can tell me how to create a picture PUSH. I have three images that I wish to work with. By pushing I mean having an image come in from the left (or right) and place itself on top of the other (or pushing the other out of view). Like a slide show of three images scrolling along but one stops for a brief period before the other image comes into view.
Is it possible to create a flash that works as an active picture frame? That will receive picture name as a parameter and load it into the frame, also can specify some effects on the picture with parameters too. By doing this, we just create a flash at once and use it manytimes with different pictures. We can even let it load frame as a picture file, so we can change frame by some parameters too. It will be good with user who doesn't know flash. And we doesn't need to modify the flash file when they need to update the picture in the frame.
I have a nested blank clip (_root.banner.holder.picture) and want to load a picture into it, using the following code in the _root.No matter what I do, I can't get it to work
