I am dynamically creating a 2 movie clips in a class. in one movie clip i am loading the image using MovieClipLoader. everything is working fine. but the onLoadComplete method is not working properly. i am using onLoadComplete method to find the width of the image but in onLoadComplete event the exact width is not calculating
[Code]...
I'm newish to OOP AS... trying to build a image loader that wipes between loads. having trouble getting my onloadComplete event to call a method in the main body of the class. what am I missing?
[Code]...
What I want to happen is a movieclip of text aligns 20px to the right of the loaded img, similar to what padding does in css, the code I am using is: textFields._x = (picture._width+20); textFields is the movieclip of text and the image is loading into picture
What actually happens is the the text aligns to picture._width but before the image the image has loaded or I am not telling it the right place to look for ._width
I'll include the .fla in for convenience
i have and xml that passes these image details to be loaded into flash. image path, x,y,heigt,width, rotation i use moviecliploader and attachemovies with a for loop to load the images. but find difficult set images there respected property after onLoadComplete even if the movieclip loader as i can pass the approriate values in to movies.how to pass the properties into onLoadComplete even of the image

Am i correct in assuming that i would have to add a listener to make this work?
I'm using MovieClipLoader to load in external swfs so that I don't need to include a preloader on each one. I'm really unfamiliar with this technique, including how to use and implement listeners and follow the functionality after using it, I've just been playing with borowed code.basically i've been trying to use this code:
Code:
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
loader.addListener(this);

View 3 RepliesHow can I get the width of an externally loaded picture? I have this:
Code:
pic_mc.loadMovie("images/pic.jpg");
pic_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._width) {
trace(this._width);
}
}
but it is not working. I've also tried calling this.getBytesLoaded/Total within the onEnterFrame and as ic_mc.getBytesLoaded alone, but it returns 4 and my picture is 40k. I've also tried pic_mc.onLoad, but it never advances. I think it is trying to get the width before it loads, but how do I prevent that?

I have loaded an image using MovieClipLoader and am using the following code to scale it to fit a photo frame:
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
..
.. add listeners ...
mcLoader.loadClip(filePath, frame.imageHolder);[code]....
The code works for most of the images except images with resolution 2880 x 2880. It did not scale properly - part of the image on the right does not show. The lower image scaled properly, but the upper one did not.The math seems to be correct
I am creating an upload and view function for my canvas website. The website lets you upload an image and view what it would look like on the wall. As the images are dynamically loaded I need to find the width of the image so that I can position it in the correct place.
The dynamic images are loaded into an empty movie clip called _root.canvas_preview
The code below works fine for finding the width of jpeg's when loaded into the canvas_preview movie but returns no value when the images are gif's, PNG etc. Does anyone know why this is or could suggest another way of finding the width of a dynamic movie clip. I am using Flash 8[code]...
I have a small issue in ActionScript 2.0. I want to know the stage width and height for external SWF file. I used the following code:

var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

Trying to do a scroll effect of some images I am loading in from an xml file. Problem is I need to limit the amount of scroll based on the width of the images - the number of images is controlled by the client and can vary. The problem is the actionscript does not seem to be able to detect the width of the combined images - heres the scroll code...

how do i find out the width of a text box and set a variable with that value?
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with loading an image path reference into a movieClip.On my movie loading I attachMovie according to i (no. of instances)Then I generate a copy of the instances (these are prepared ready for print - I have this working)
However, the initial creation of these instances is handled when the Flash movie loads and uses part of the code below to generate thumbnails:
myScroll.content.attachMovie("fav_content", "Stadium"+i, i);
var imgPath = mySharedObject.data["img"+i];
myScroll.content["Stadium" + i].imageLocation = imgPath;

The class is called multiple times once then when triggered in a duplicate movieclip but fails somehow - maybe the clue is duplicate tho tried that (duplicateMovieClip..)
I have loaded in an external swf file and it works fine.
However, when I get the width dimensions of the movieclip that is housing the external swf file it gives me a '0' for the width.
I have a small issue in ActionScript 2.0. I want to know the stage width and height for external SWF file. I used the following code:
var loader:MovieClip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip('loader', 1);var obj:Object = new Object();var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();mcl.loadClip("external.swf",loader);mcl.addListener(obj);
obj.onLoadInit = function(mc){ trace(mc._width); trace(mc._height);};
It's showing the whole animation's width and height but I want only stage width & height?
How can I find the width of an external jpg BEFORE it's been loaded into my movie? I can easily find the width of it AFTER loading by loading it into an empty movie clip and returning the width of this AFTER the jpg has loaded using the _width command. But what I want is to find the width BEFORE loading.I have tried "trace(1.jpg._width);" but this returns undefined, obviously as 1.jpg is not an object from my library, it's an external file. Any other ideas anyone?!
View 1 RepliesIm having problems with assessing the size of an image after having loaded it into a movieclip using MovieClipLoader.Im trying to use the onLoadComplete-method to determine when the image is completely downloaded into the imageholder-mc, but Im just getting the original size of the mc, not the image's.[code]
View 3 RepliesSuppose I have a (Spark) label. What is the best way to find the length of the text in it? I looked at the myLable.measureText("bla bla") method but it says: To measure text in Spark components, get the measurements of a spark.components.Label or spark.components.RichTextfter looking around I cannot find what this is refering to. I tried myLabel.measureWidth() but this does not return anything usefull (it frequently returns zero). Note: I am explicitly setting the width like this:<s:Lable width="{globalWidthVariable"} .../>If the text overflows I would like to increse the globalWidthVariable to the size of the text.

Im trying to use the onLoadComplete-method to determine when the image is completely downloaded into the imageholder-mc, but Im just getting the original size of the mc, not the image's. I using the MovieClipLoader incorrectly somehow?
Code:
var MCL = new MovieClipLoader();
MCL.loadClip("IMAGE.jpg", mc_ImageHolder);
MCL.onLoadComplete = function (targetMC) { // perhaps 'targetMC' should be used?
trace (mc_ImageHolder._width); // outputs mc's original size, not image's size
}
I'm trying to load a bitmap using this: [URL]. It seems like the preload is working fine. I'm just having trouble loading the bitmap from here. it works without the preloader but I can't figure out what's not making it load when it's done.
Code:
function loadTransBitmap(id){
this.createEmptyMovieClip("holder_img", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
preload = new Object();
mcl.addListener(preload);
[Code] .....
I noticed after the load is complete, I traced the width for targetMC, which is where the image should be preloaded..and it comes up as 0. So it seems like there's nothing in the holder_img container. But it preloads something so I don't know what the problem is.
Also: 'id' from the function is just the image (images/1.jpg)
Is it posible to make a preloader of a SWF that loads an external JPG?

I have a Flash CS4 Professional version installed in my machine. Here is my problem.
1st - I'm importing an image to stage and set the width and height to match the image. (everything is good, no problem) 2nd - I am using the FLVPlayback components build-in from Flash CS4. It does load the video and everything. (everything seems good) 3rd - Publish the video to my local drive (everything seems good) 4th - I could play the video from my local pc and it loads fine and fast 5th - Upload everthing from my local folder to the Web server, it does display the background image but not the video. It has a white blank screen. What is going on? I copy the exact folder from local to server. What have I missed? How could I make the video to load?

I am trying to write a preloader for multiple images of unknown size from an external source. Therefore I am counting the clips as they complete and using this as the progress in a dynamic text field.
The dynamic text field loader_mc.loadText.text = Percent;
Loads only once when the 1st clip has loaded even though the trace within the same if bracket traces out the different percentages as each clip loads
Here's the onLoadComplete function...
mclListener_c.onLoadComplete = function(target:MovieClip) {
onEnterFrame = target._visible=false;
//trace("var container = "+container);
//trace("movie clip "+target+" has loaded");
loader_mc._visible = true;

I am trying this code to implement a loader to load my external swf, but it seems the code is never executing the onLoadComplete event.

var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
