ActionScript 2.0 :: Removing One Movie Clip In And Replacing With Another
Jun 1, 2011
I have various movie clips that play when a button is clicked.My first movie clip (instance name is "MCABOUT") which plays on the press of the button called "about". I have another movie clip (instance name is "MCPORTFOLIO") which plays when another button called "portfolio" is pressed. I have a stop() applied within each movie clip so that they stop playing once they reach their end frames. My question is: How do I get the "ABOUT" movie clip to disappear from the stage when I click the button for "PORTFOLIO" and how do I apply this to make any additional movie clips disappear from the stage once another button is clicked so that the movie clip attached to that button plays (in other words, whatever movie clip is presently on the stage disappears)?

I am trying to do something that seems like it should be relatively easy. Well bang goes that theory. Here is what I am trying to do. I have the path to a group of images stored in an xml file. I want to load them to a movie clip on the stage. doing this directly by reading the xml file and using loadMovie("filename"); bsaically does what I want it to do with just a few problems, 1. the movie repeats so the same image is pulled from the server multiple times sucking up bandwidth. 2. On slow connections the images can sometimes load slow making the movie not display properly. What I would like to do is load all the images into some structure and add the images to the movieclip in the time line when needed. How does one accomplish this in action script 2.0?
In a perfect world, I would just load all the images to an array and load the array element to the movieclip on the stage.

I have as3 flash page in that page I have two buttons with each calling an external .swf file. What I want is when I call in the second .swf or vise versa is for the 1st .swf to disapear so it is not sitting under the 2nd. swf. I want the movie clip to dissapear because if it has sound in it it will play even if the 2nd .swf is clicked. The code that I'm using is
var image11 =new Loader();
lights_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, greenmove11);
function greenmove11(event:Event):void {
[code]....
So how can I make it so that when I press fireworks_btn that the light.swf disappears?

What I've got is a holder swf that loads in a separate swf. Within this loaded swf there is a button, that when pressed, removes itself (as in, the swf the button is placed within is removed) from the holder swf and loads in a new swf.
This seems incredibly complicated to achieve, at least I think it is
What I've got so far is this, the holder swf...

How do I remove a movie clip from the main movie?I've tried setting the alpha,but technically it is still there.Removing and deleting movie clip only works if the movie clip is duplicated and I don't want the movie clip duplicated.

Im using this code to generate an empty movie clip that loads an external .png file:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1);
container.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", 1);
container.mc.loadMovie("STEVE_big.png");
container._x = 550;
container._y = 5;
Im having is that if I navigate to another scene the movie clip/image remains on top of the new scene. This particular scene has four buttons that jump to different frame labels in this scene. There are also two buttons at the bottom of the page that take you to a new scene. Ive tried multiple lines of code to terminate the image or movie clip when the user navigates to another scene or page. But it just remains.

I have attached a duplicate movie script action on a button to create a new copy of the clip (F900) with each press. This seems to work well; however, I can not, for the life of me, figure out how to create the script to remove the duplicated movie clipHere is the script I am using for the duplication and I did also attach the fla file:on (release) { _root.F900.duplicateMovieClip ("F900_"+"x", x ); setProperty ("F900_"+"x", _x, 300);setProperty ("F900_"+"x", _y, 200); x++;}Once I figure this out I would like to add different aircraft to it but that is not terribly important right now.

I have a simple Flash website with the sections laid out the timeline with labels In one section called Media, I have a movie instance of a Flash movie gallery player. It loads just fine but when I leave that section to go to another, the sound of the video is still playing Visually it's not seen but the sound still plays.I suspect I need to put some sort of remove commamnd in the script but I'm having trouble getting the right result

I have two clips on the stage with mouseover and mouseout actions. When you roll over a clip, a new clip is created and added to the stage. I then use the drawing methods to draw a callout.It works fine the first time, but when you roll over the second clip, the drawing for the previous object is not erased and it adds to the drawing with the information from the second rollover.
Code:
node1.buttonMode = true;
node2.buttonMode = true;

i found an example online where bombs falling from the sky remove circles from a grass field, and a moving character can interact with the newly made circles(go into them). i dissected the code to the point where the only thing that happens now is that you click on the field and remove a circle:
PHP Code:
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.geom.Point;
[code]....
and now im trying to figure out if i can use this code on a movie clip already on the stage, instead of a bitmap in the library
does anyone know how?

The portal in my game is suppose to be unlocked after you collect all the coins. The portal is locked but when I go over a coin it neither adds to the variable or removes the movie clip by instance name of coin1 coin2 and coin 3.also if the remove movie clip doesnt need _root I've already tried it without it I know that is not the problem.
var openportal = 0;

I've been trying to find this topic on the internet for what seems like forever but haven't had any luck. What I'm trying to do is remove a child movie clip and have an alpha transition when it is removed.
What I have so far can be found at: [URL]
Basically what I'm trying to do is when the video player is closed, instead of simply disappearing, I want it to fade to an alpha value of zero
this is the code I have so far:
ActionScript Code:
stop ();
MC_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vimeo_embed);
function vimeo_embed (e:MouseEvent):void {
var OpenEmbedPlayer:Vimeo_MC_PU = new Vimeo_MC_PU();

I'm having problems with something somewhat simple. We're going to a trade show and needed a video that would randomly load a SWF clip on one scene, then I have the timeline move to another after a delay and then go to the next part to load an image, then I have it restart and do it again, for a never-ending looping video at our booth.
I'm running into an issue though, when it loops and plays the SWF for the 2nd time, the old content still remains and the new content plays over the previous one. I figured the issue was I needed to remove the previous clip before loading a new one. I found some code that I thought SHOULD work but can't seem to get it right.

I am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

I'm creating a small drag & drop activity, and I want to be able to check and see if the dragged movie clip is completely within the bounds of another movie clip (or at least in the bounds of a certain x/y zone on the main stage. I can't use dropTest because it returns true if any tiny bit of the movie clip overlaps with the dropTest movie clip.
I also thought of something that just checks the x/y coordinates of the dragged movie clip, but I'd need this to reflect a range of values rather than one coordinate. For instance, I'd want to return true if the movie clip's x is between 50-60 AND the y is between 50-60. I'm attaching a small graphic to illustrate in case my explanation isn't clear enough [URL]
