here is the fla file - [URL] I have an attached movie on root level that movie has a button inside it and I want to tell that button to do some function. simple----BUT I want to put the action on the first frame on the root and not inside th MC. here is the code Iam working on and the same is in the fla file in the above link.
[Code]...
explanation of the above code-- but1 is the button on root that tells clip1 to attach on blank MC(thats also on root) clip1 has the button inside it call but2 and tried to tell that bloody but2 to open that the URL link but its not doing so NOTE - I want to put all the action on the action on the first frame and not inside th MC.
I'm trying to get a small movieclip in my library with the linkage "spinning" to show up when a thumbnail is loading. what busts my mind is that I can create a text field, but not attach a movieclip. The basis of the code is from Blue_Chi's Advanced Image Gallery here. I know that the movieclip is capable of being pulled out of the library, 'cause I've tried it elsewhere and it works.[code]...
I recently built a preloader using the MovieClipLoader object. I used the following events: OnLoadComplete, OnLoadProgress and onLoadStart. I registered my listeners etc and then I decided I wanted to get a bit fancy. So I decided that within the onLoadProgress I would add an"if" statement, this if statement would basically say if the loaded content equals 70 then animate the preloader graphic off the screen using tweening (very simple). The onLoadProgress is continuously called while the content is being loaded but it seems that it does not want to correctly execute my if condition.
Here is the code for the onLoadProgress. loadListener.onLoadProgress = function (target:MovieClip, bytesLoaded:Number, bytesTotal:Number) { trace("onLoadProgress"); txtLoaded.text = String (Math.floor (bytesLoaded / bytesTotal * 100)) + "% loaded"; mcProgress._xscale = bytesLoaded / bytesTotal * 100; // address the bar [Code] .....
I like to apply a prototype to the following:a holder inside an mc that has a linkage(project). Project is loaded (attachmovie ) in a holder (name main)placed on stag (root). Possible?
I've used MovieClipLoader to load a movieclip into my holder. Everything works out fine, the mc loads and it's all good. But then, inside the loaded mc I use attachMovie to attach a movieclip from the library of the holder. It won't attach, but it will attach if I re-create the specific mc in the loaded mc's library. Does anyone know how to get around this?
I had a movieclip which contained a button in it exported as "mc". Then I attach this movie clip onto the stage using: _root.attachMovie("mc", "link1", 1); But i couldn't find it with AS. I mean, how can i refer to the button inside the movieclip after I attach it onto the stage using attachMovie?
I'm experiencing problems when I try to load a movie that uses LoadVars() into another movie that uses MovieClipLoader method to load the first file. My goal is to secure the flash movie and the contents that are accessed from the database and display the contents with a non-editable form (this is a "backend movie"). The best way I found is to load this "backend" swf with MovieClipLoader from another movie that acts as "frontend".
The problem is, that every time I load the main movie I'm able to see the form of the loaded clip but the content is not fully loaded (maybe because the ASP page has not delivered all the content to LoadVars). For example I can see 3 of 6 text that are being loaded with LoadVars() in the backend movie. Individually, the backend movie is working fine and I always can see my form with dynamic text without any interrumption. how can I load the movie to another one or how can I secure the backend including the URL that access the database?
I'm building a portfolio site for an art director. He has access to final swfs but not fla files, and I'm calling these final swfs into a main movie, using MovieClipLoader. The external swfs live in subfolders, relative to the location of the main movie. The problem, of course, is that when the external swfs are loaded they look for any additional swfs relative to the movie they're loaded into, and not relative to the folder they're located in. I've tried _lockroot -- no dice.
can anyone explain me that what are the things new in ActionScript 3.0 and give me the links where this thing explained in detail.How to createEmptyMovieClip and how to attach movie Clip?
I �m just starting to migrate from AS 2 to AS 3 and i have a problem with the addchild function�.I have a movieclip with the Mascot class and i�m trying to add it to the stage using a class file��but it doesn�t do anything�I have no idea how to load this movieclip using a class file even though it works in the actions bar[code]...
i am trying to create a basic game and am having a problem. I'm using swfmill and mtasc (but I doubt that has much impact) and am using ActionScript 2. At the moment I am attempting to add a load of tiles to a set and then move that set of tiles about the screen in one go. The problem I am having is that I can not figure out the best way of linking the set (which is created on the fly) to the _root movie and so it doesn't draw.
I could potentially be doing everything wrong as I have only just started to learn how to use this language. This is basically what I do:
I create a 'Main' class that extends MovieClip and add a new clip of this class to the library.
I also create a 'TileSet' class that also extends MovieClip. This class calls attachMovie (on 'this') to add a number of tile MovieClips from the library to this TileSet.
I create a 'TileSet' within 'Main' (like var myTileSet:TileSet=new TileSet();), so that the Main class can play with the tileset.
When running I see nothing. As I said befor I believe this is due to TileSet not being attached to Main or _root. As a test I changed the TileSet's attachMovie (that attaches the tiles) to be called on '_root' rather than 'this'. This change makes the tiles show when run, but means that I can not move all the tiles by simply moving the TileSet.
I think I could probably add the TileSet into the library and 'place' it (swfmill method to put the clip into the stage), but I would prefer to do it on the fly in pure ActionScript as I think this will be useful later on too.
Thats the first time i am using this forum so I'am a newbie. For first I must say that my english is the worst on earth. Therefore a you understood me.My problem is: made the Attach Movie Clip with XML Load and it wondered me, because it worked. But now I make Hover Captions inside the first Attach Movie Clip, also with an attach movie function, Now I have the problem how to get the data from the xml file into the 2. attach movie.for the 1. path (into the first attach movie) the code looks like this._root["neuesMC"+i].xmlPfad = xmlDatei[i].attributes.namen;
I followed the tutorial about multi-dimensional arrays and attachmovie. I would like to create a similar one but I want to add setInterval so that the attached movies appear in an order with some time delay. Instead of the loop used in the tutorial I used setInterval and clearinterval. However, all the attached movie clips' _x and_y positions are the same and I can't send the information in the array to the attached movie clips. When I trace() the text boxes it returns undefined.
how to move attach movie. What I wanna to do, I wanna attache movie clip to the stage(grey) and then i wanna attache another movie clip in to the stage( red) and another( blue). I wanna move just red and blue movie clip(axis:y) like they grow on grey movie clip.
how to eliminate previos attach before move to next attach MC..let say as u can see in my code..I just settign the interval..for 2 second..in other to attach the mc on eby one...so how to set up the code so that if the 2nd mc has attach it'll remove the 1st one attach for certain time...and so on..the scenario like this..
mc1 attach after 2 second mc2 attach --> remove mc1 after 2 second
I've built a random image generator that places 6 different coloured movie clips randomly on the stage and at any quantity that I specify. So I can have say 100 black, 30 red, 50 blue clips scattered about the screen...lovely. My only problem is that the code goes through and does one colour clip at a time so it places the 100 black first on lower levels that the 30 red, which are on lower levels than the blue and so on. This creates the problem that the last colour always dominates as it's on the top most levels. Is there a simple way to randomise the levels as the movie clips are copied? Here's the code
I am attempting to attach a slider bar to a movie clip. The movie clip is of a face morphing from emotion to no emotion. My ultimate goal is to have the viewer choose when the emotion has disappeared by moving the slider bar.
