Is there a way? I need to give a thumbnail that I'm changing the size of a border, but to simply place a background movieclip behind it and resize it along with the thumbnail stretches out the borders and makes them all blurry. Is there a way to change the size the background movieclip so that it retains it's normal-sized border?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to make one of those Resizing borders for an image gallery ... Is there an Actionscript 2.0 function that whilst Loading in an external jpeg, Flash can be told the dimensions of the picture it is currently loading > before it has loaded it fully.? ie: getWidth (as a guess). Thus, preparing the size of the border, whilst the image is loading. Or, does it have to initiate that once the jpeg has loaded 100%.
View 3 RepliesI'm have set up a photo gallery using the 'Kirupa Xml and flash gallery tutorial' and I wanted to use this but implement the border resizing function featured in the galleries on in the 'Howd he do this? Resizing slideshow' thread.

I've looked for the solution to my problem on SO, Google and Bing, but to no avail.
NB This is regarding AS3/CS5 on Windows 7 Pro x64. I have a SWF that loads another SWF in AS3.
Yesterday morning it was working fine. Then I made a bunch of changes to another SWF, completely separate, and to some XML content files and the next time I ran the project the second SWF started to flash and scroll through its content once it was loaded by the first SWF.
I couldn't figure out what I did to cause the problem and have NO clue!

They work great individually, but when they are combined (3 pixels away from each other) the mouseout effects do not work. I have 3 different buttons with the following Action Script.[code]It works fine by itself, but when coupled with other buttons, it does not have enough time to Mouseout before the next buttons says Mouseover.
View 6 RepliesI am looking for some creative examples for interactive methods to navigate a tree hierarchy. Conceptional ideas or some good Flash/ Silverlight/ HTML 5.0/OpenGL examples of such navigation would be great. I'm not concerned with the technology at this stage.My problem that is that I need to deliver information to a user in the form of a questionnaire hierarchy. Consider each node in a tree hierarchy as a question where each question answered takes the user to the next level down in the hierarchy of the tree were there are a further number of question(s) to be answered. At the very last node, there will be the final solution. I have found this useful(url...). I would like an interactive version of this with each node been expanded to show further nodes etc.
View 1 RepliesI have this weird thing happening with flash and a dynamic textfield. Basically, someone rolls over a marker on a map, and a tooltip pops up with a dynamic textfield. The textfield is set to multiline=true and wordwrap = true, and I defined a specific width of 160 pixels.
The problem is, some of my text is jumping to the next line, some of it is just getting cut off. So if I have a line like "The Cat Jumped Over the Box", On one line I will see "The Cat Jumped" and on the next line I would see "the Box". It looks like it is masking out the "over" line and not pushing it to the next line.
It's not doing this for everything, just some longer lines. This is a really weird bug and I have tried for 8 hours to get this fixed. Has anyone ran into this problem before?
I am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I'm loading a few pngs/jpgs externally so they can be swapped out occasionally, and the issue I'm running into is when they are shrunk they become fairly choppy. Is there a way to have flash re-render them, or do something to smooth the resizing as opposed to going in and resizing every file manually myself?
View 1 RepliesI've got a little problem with BitmapFill, I'm trying to use a sprite as a container for various things and i would like it to have a filled pattern background. my problem is that i want it to resize the sprite to the height of the window but not have the background fill resize, and add more / crop as the window size is changed. to illustrate what i mean, please view the diagram attached to this post .
