ActionScript 2.0 :: Stuck On Flash Bitmap Loading
Mar 10, 2010
I am using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 2.
So I have inherited this flash project which when completely published is basically a tutorial video for software. It is set up such that there is one large movie that loads other flash movies via actionscript (I guess).
The project was supposed to be designed so that it would be easy to make translated versions, so all the software UI items (File menu, tool box, etc.) are cut into pieces and in the library. In theory a person could go and just switch out the library graphics and presto, you have a French version instead of English.
While all these elements are in the library, you can never actually see them on the stage in Flash. When you publish the project, all the items are in place. I have hunted through the actionscript and don't see the images called up.
Does anyone know how these images are being called up into the actual final swf?

I'm trying to do is load a Bitmap from a URL Request. 2 problems really.
1. the mLoader.width and height doesn't return anything
2. When I input the loader manually, nothing comes up just some dots on the screen.
It's part of a vehicle class, I've been searching hours on end for a solution. Even copy and pasted code. Nothing works..[code]

It seems to me that all I need is to get my youtube chromeless player that I've loaded in the place I want it to be. Preview As you can see it's not loaded into my MovieClip! Though it IS loaded, it plays, it's the right size! Just not in the right position. I'm hoping one of you can spot me here and be my life saver. Been stuck here and sitting on this code for a couple of days, REALLY WANT TO MOVE ON! Here's my code (AS3)

I am facing a problem using a preloader which is nested in an MC. When I load an external swf the preloader gets stuck on 100%. This is the code for the preloader:
ActionScript Code:
//stoped the playback
MovieClip(root).stop();
//importing all neccessary libraries
import flash.utils.Timer;

I built a game that grabs a tileSheet (bitmap image) and some xml files from an outside source (not from the library). Turns out that this is a bad idea if I want to post my game on most sites. Cause majority sites only give me ability to load a single file. NOW, I need to figure an alternative. I tried doing the cross-domain thing but that is a pain cause I am running into some security issues in which I do not know how to get by. I made a seperate post for that issue, with my code in it. But now I need to know if there is some better hope.It makes sense that maybe I could load a bitmap image from the library.

I have a image loaded in a sprite, the image is from a remote location [URL]. Once the image is loaded in the Loader Object i then want to create a reflection of the sprite that contains the image. Now this works when i run the application in flash IDE but when i embed this flash application inside a HTML page the reflection images do not work. Why is this, the code is below.

I have a movie which is serving as a button.When you rollover the image, it grows, and stops.When you rollOut, it shrinks, and stops.This code works fine. The Problem:When you scroll the mouse over quickly, the animation get stuck and doesn't execute the rollOut code.This is most likely because the first rollOver action hasn't yet completed.Here's my code:
thumb_test_4.onRollOver=function () {
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}[code]....

I have a Flash app that loads a PNG as a bitmap and adds it to a MovieClip instance called test_mc on the stage. test_mc contains a placeholder clip that we hide after adding the bitmap. E.g
test_mc.addChild(bmp);
test_mc.placeholder.visible=0;
This works fine. I then move the MovieClip around the stage in the timeline with a lot of keyframes. This works fine.
I then add a layer, called layer_mask, above the layer with the movieclip on. I create a shape on layer_mask and set layer_mask to mask the movieclip's layer. This still works fine. Now I add a keyframe in layer_mask. This stops working. The bmp is no longer loaded into the movieclip, and the placeholder is no longer hidden. The bitmap is actually loaded in and displayed correctly until the keyframe in the mask is hit, at which point it reverts to displaying the placeholder without the loaded bitmap.

I made a flash website with photo galleries using a component that I bought online. The component is loading the image in a thumbnail scroll bar via a XML file and the full size image display in a UILoader. So far nothing special. But when I reach a certain amount of pictures in the gallery, the scroll panel get stuck while loading and doesn't display the full size image. Then the thumbnails don't react at all.

I'm building an image viewer that has violent content (video games), and so it requires users to enter their birthdays. Problem is that because of company policy, I can't expose any of the source images being viewed in the event that someone might use their resources/net tabs (or just sniff the request) and get the direct link to the image. (I know that they could screenshot it, but that's out of anyone's control and not something I'm worried about.)Is there anyway to inherently mask loaded resources (images)? I've been using sockets, which is great, but there's also the problem of actually loading the image binary (after HTTP request headers are removed) as a Bitmap in Flash.

It seems like the loading screen (more like frame) is the last thing to load, so you are stuck staring at a blank screen for a while. How can i prioritize how the game loads so that the instant you get on the page the loading screen comes up immediately?

I have spent quite a few hours looking into loading bitmap fonts to use and I cant seem to find anything on it. I have a bitmap font saved in a png file and I'm thinking I will need to create a new font, set the dimensions etc.

In the following application images are attaching from library as bitmap. But i want to load it externally.Actually what I am trying to do is that i want to divide an image in to several pieces and giving a disolve effect for transition. I got a code in which images are loading from the library as bitmap object. I changed it and loaded externally using bitmap, but i cant divide images in to small pieces. I think its due to the problem of loading as bitmap.i just want to modify the following code to load image externally.

I'm building an app that allows the user to load JPGs, edit them, and then save them back to their computer.So I have run into some sort of bug. Whenever I load a JPG from another site then the bitmap exporter will just trace a blank image. So it has come down to this: the moment I a jpg, my traced bitmap is broken. It will work at every point before that. I am using loadClip to load the jpgs (flash 8 pro/as2.0).

I have created a class called LoadXML that loads an XML file and parses the data returning various arrays consisting of url paths: background urls (called "hintergrund"), image urls ("pfad") etc. In the main class I am trying to load each of these background urls and insert them each in a seperate cover (for a CoverFlow carousel). The images will then be loaded in the same cover and should appear on top of the background.I havent been able to insert multiple images in one bitmap. This is what my image loading methods look like:(I also added my LoadXML class and xml file in the attachments).

I just started working with bitmaps and I do not get them at all, I've read the entire page adobe has on bitmap and bitmapdata. I've got this code together but all it does is displays a white rectangle and not my image.
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
This code should load the image into the bitmap (which works), then crop it with the rectangle (which just crops the fill from the bitmapdata)

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)

I have 1656x1332 px 30fps movie clip sliding or rotating on click event inside of 850x550 px stage. For some reason the clip gets stuck on rotation sometimes, even though the whole file is only 46 KB. Moreover, depending on browser, the rotating part can fly completely off the stage and the only way to get it back is to refresh.[code]

I have simple sliding pages mechanism in my flash file, all done with AS3 code. Now the pages, which are movieclips, are slid off the screen on a button press. Sometimes, everything goes smoothly, but on some people's computers the sliding pages get stuck in the middle, and then the next slide starts from the wrong position. This throws everything off the loop.

I run a school lab with a few users on each machine. One students came up with a problem. She is always in outline view, even when the outline button in the layers panels is not punched. When I log in to the same machine, I do not have the problem. I assume the problem is in the user preferences file. We are on Windows 7. I went into AppData and deleted what I thought was the preferences file, but it continues to return. Anyone have any ideas why I can't get her out of outline view? Adobe Flash CS5

I have an issue with SWFAddress in Flash: when the user navigates to a page within my flash app, I call "setValue". This changes the URL in the browser's address bar, which in turn calls the "externalChange" event in flash. This event causes the flash app to load the page displayed in the url bar... so the app keeps changing the flash page and updating the url bar into infinity.
How do I know if the url bar was changed by flash or manually by the user?
