View 5 RepliesI have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:
ActionScript Code:
var iXML:XML = new XML();
iXML.ignoreWhite = true;

It dies every time on that last line. How do I refer to that vidThumbn instance so I can add the imageLoader? I don't know what I'm missing. It feels like it should work.
I have a flash code where i am loading an AS 2 SWF inside AS 3.

View 1 RepliesI have a button inside another button which is inside a movieclip. *whew*I have it so that when you click on the movieclip, a dialog box pops up. I have two buttons on the dialog box, but for some reason you can't click on them and when you do, the dialog box just disappears. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about, so how do i get the "YES/NO" buttons to work? Oh, the buttons are not included in that Graphic

View 17 RepliesOne of my .SWFs is 95Mb, I have the animation in .MOV form and have been trying to play it inside the .SWF, but it would not play on Newgrounds, for example. I know you might have to make the .MOV play from a server to play on the web, but Im not sure how to go about doing that. Ive just never had to put my animation in .MOV form then back into a separate .SWF due to being such a large .SWF to begin with.
View 21 Replieshow to do this and there are several answers but none worked for me. I have a swf which I wish to insert inside the flash stage. This swf is the airtight postcard viewer. The stage is basically a picture of a table top table with the left side having some objects. I want to be able to tween the postcard viewer onto the right side of the table so the pictures scatter out on the right 2/3 and not interfere with the objects or "fall off " the table...once the viewer is done looking at the gallery and click on another link, then all the pics move/tween out (onRelease) as a group out of the way and new contents tween in. I've tried creating a new object, movie clip, while inside this instance I import onto stage the swf file and back out to scene 1 and place this object onto the stage but it doesnt work. I can see the swf on the stage but it wont play! I get ghis error which said "statement must appear within on/onClip Event handler..."
View 1 RepliesI am loading one swf into another using the following code:
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
ldr.load(new URLRequest("folio.swf"));
ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaded, false, 0, true);
[code]...
Visually, it loads OK, and appears where I want it to, but it throws an error on the actionscript in the loaded swf (this swf functions perfectly on its own).This is the line that caused the porblem:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, sliderUp);
I have tried avoiding the reference to stage by substituting this. This eliminates the error, but none of the interactivity of the loaded swf functions.
You have a movie (M) and it has elements (sub movies) Buttons (B) and Content (C)So If B has the following:Link buttonAbout buttonetcAnd I want to click on Link button and want it to go to the Link section in Content (C) movie.Traditionally, in flash to go back to the root directory, you have to tell the button something like this
on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndStop("about");
}
My question is, how would I tell it to go to root then go inside another movie (which is also on root) and go to a certain frame within that movie?
is it possible to get the src inside the img tag? i am loading an rss feed and i need to get the src so that i can trow it inside a MC
View 5 RepliesI have a preloader.swf that loads index.swf I want to be able to have some actionscript inside preloader.swf that tells index.swf to gotoAndPlay(2);Is there a way to do this. Basically I don't know how to talk to the swf inside the swf, meaning I don't know what the path would be like.This is what my actionscript looks like right now:

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, fileLoaded);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preload);

I have a site with a simple SWF that shows a series of frames for a cartoon each time the 'next' button is clicked. At the last frame I want to place a space for an ad such as Google Adsense. Is there a way to insert the Adsense code inside the Flash SWF so that it only displays on a particular frame?
View 1 RepliesI have this variables in my movieClip
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {

Even i click the button it doesn't add variables inside the Movieclip I tried it outside the movie clip and it works.
I'm working on a simple catching game where you have monsters coming out from the corner of the screen and you need to get them with the mouse.What I want to do is change the rate at which the monsters come out depending on the score. The higher the score, the more monsters should come out.The code for creating new monsters is a simple timer event:[code]it works when I declare the variable locally within the function. But then I can't access it outside of it, so it's no good!
View 2 RepliesI have three buttons I have built as MC's. In each on the MC's timeline I have another MC's with instance name voted01_mc, votecd02_mc, and voted03_mc, respectively. And each of the MC Buttons have instance names Q01_btn, Q02_btn and Q03_btn.
I would like to find a way to control the "visibility" of a movie clip inside one movie clip from inside another MC. I am sure there is a way to do this such as:
Q02_btn.voted02_mc._visible = false;
Q03_btn.voted03_mc._visible = false;
if the MC I wanted to make invisible was on main timeline I would do something like:
root.voted02_mc._visible = false;
root.voted03_mc._visible = false;
SO this would be inside Button MC 01 making the MC inside 02 and 03 invisible.
ive tried with this script (as2)
on (press) {
if (triggermc._visible == true) {
if (d1.hitTest(_root.d2.hit)) {

I have a Flash application that receives data from a php application in xml format. Would it be possible for me to call functions in flash that it receives in xml format?
Let's say the php application sends this:-

</data>
Would I be able to get that function executed in the Flash application?
I have a hittest code that's supposed to prevent an mc from moving into a space occupied by another mc. The thing is, the first mc is inside another mc and for some reason the hittest isn't registering. The code I'm using is below. Is it wrong somehow, or is there another code I should be using?
Key.addListener(keyListener);

Simple question: In AS3 you can't do sharing of a MC between more MCs, right? In AS2, you can. How can I work around this?
Let me be specific: in ActionScript *TWO* I do something like this:
movie.attachMovie(LargeImage, "image", 20);
LargeImage = movie clip of 400 x 480.
Now... the thing is: I do this for 20 MovieClips but they all REUSE the same original MC apparently (with no memory increase, of course). If I animate the MC, it will animate within all 20 MovieClips. I'm using a mask to show only portions of the MC, but I think that's not important.
But in ActionScript 3 this wouldn't work, right?
Because in AS3 every time we .addChild, the child is REMOVED from the parent, so the same MovieClip / Sprite couldn't be in 2 places at once. How would you work around this without creating a separate instance of the "LargeImage" MovieClip for each object? Note that I don't want to use BitmapData & CopyPixels: the object may be animated.
I have two MC's.One has a tweened animation that I want to run within the main MC. The tweened MC has on frame one a stop() command and on frame 2 begins a tweened animation. I've place the tweened MC inside the main MC. At the point at which I want the animated MC to run I use the mc.gotoAndPlay(2) command which indeed moves to that frame but the tween doesn't run. The tween runs fine if I remove the stop() command on frame 1. Why this behaviour?
