ActionScript 2.0 :: Attaching A Movie Clip From The Library?
May 27, 2007
I am attaching a movie clip from the library with this code
PHP Code:
function movie_start(num){ for(i=0;i<num;i++){ var circle = attachMovie("k_circle","k_circle"+i,i) with(circle){ _x = (-50); _y = (-50); } }}
So is there any way of placing Actionscript onto this clip using actionscript I want to place this:
PHP Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { _x += (_root.k_xpos-_x)/_root.k_speed; _y += (_root.k_ypos-_y)/_root.k_speed;}
I have tried a couple of things to no avail...

Basically, I have movie1, movie2, movie3, movie4 in the library, with linkages.
These are just 5 frame clips, with a single dummy_mc moving statically over the 4 frames.
I need these to be picked randomly and placed (each has its own set of co-ordinates where it should appear) on the stage at a random set interval (ie, every 2-3 seconds).
There are also 7 items (item1, item2, etc) in the library.
So once one of the 4 movies has been placed on the stage, I need one of these 7 items to randomly attach itself to the dummy_mc within that movie (and, I guess, generate instance names etc)

I'm trying to attach several movie clips into another movie clip. I can add the movie clips successfully . However, the movie clips start from the middle of the main movie clip that I used as the background layer for the other movie clips. Is there any way to make it located to the top left? Here is the code I used:
Code:
Layer_Movie.attachMovie("NumberTop","num",depth,{ _x: scol + (col * 32), _y: scol - 32 });
scol and srow are the attributes that represents the starting locations from the left and top. (I used 10 for the variables scol and srow the movie should be located 10 pixels away from the top and left) 32 is the height and also width of the movie clip to be added.
(I know sometimes actionscript is not so powerful to implement such kind of processes. Since I have not time to wait for the another version of actionscript

I need to create new object, but in a layer that is below the tope one. So far I tried some commands:
PHP Code:
_root.attachMovie(...);
- this one creates object above all other. Changing depth doesn't change anything when it's about objects I put manually in editor.
PHP Code:
_root.layername.attachMovie(...);
- this one doesn't work at all.

I'm trying to just attach a movie clip inside of another movie clip, and it's not working...which is beyond me. The following code is written in an actions layer within the first movie clip (main_mc). I want to attach a close button to close an externally loaded swf, and the close button has to be on top of the externally loaded swf, and it's not attaching, so therefore I can't close anything.[code]any glaring mistakes that I can't see? o.O this is really confusing, it seems like such a simple task, I must be missing the greater picture.

I tried to connect a mc to the _root, with the statement
Code:
_root.attachMovie("missile", 'missile'+x, x+10);
It was linked and everything but for some reason didn't work. Am i overlooking something?

I'm making a game where an airplane loads using attachMovie, with a randomly assigned y coordinate and a constant x. The airplane then moves across the screen. You hit another button, and a parachutist is loaded using attachMovie, with the coordinates being set equal to the current coordinates of the airplane. The parachutist loads but he doesn't load to the coordinates of the airplane. If I feed the parachutist numerical coordinates, he loads to those coordinates, but for some reason Flash seems to be completely ignoring my attempts to feed the plane's coordinates to the parachutist. Here's the relevant code, which is of course nested in an onEnterFrame function:
if (Key.isDown(Key.DELETEKEY)){
if (jumped == false){
attachMovie("jumperWhole", "jumper", 0);
[Code].....
As I've said, the jumper loads, he just loads in the upper corner of the game, as if the plane's coordinates are ignored and Flash attaches jumper to the default coordinates of the program. If I try to attach the jumper to the using the coordinates of something that's not in motion, it works, so I'm wondering if this has something to do with the motion of the plane.

In my library I have a bunch of movieclips that are dynamically going to be placed on my stage. Is there a simple method of attaching ActionScript to these movieclips so that when they are used on the stage, they have the script applied to them already?

I am creating a program to play sounds from the library when a button is CTRL + CLICK. I have no problem if I play either of the two sounds on the first frame and then move to other sounds. However, if I navigate past the first sound buttons and try to play later sounds, I get: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object referenceat soundFile_fla::MainTimeline/playSound11()

Here I attach a movieclip to another movieclip 'a'. It works.
_root.MC_menu.MC_windowI.a.attachMovie(itemFocusInv,attachedItemA,getNextHighestDepth());
Then later I want to remove the movieclip from 'a' so I tried this:_root.removeMovieClip(_root.MC_menu.MC_windowI.attachedItemA);-and variations.But it does nothing!In the first code the first argument is itemFocusInv without quotes because it is variable, once it is attached it doesnt vary but when it is not then the movieclip varys. If attachedItemA doesnt let me remove the movieclip, what will? I tried using _visible and didnt work.
_root.MC_useItem.MC_yes.onRelease = function() {
if(itemSpaceA == "MC_inventory_berry_blue"){
aI = false;

the problem I've encountered on the home pg flash is that two big buttons and a bike animation should display prior to the photos loading. However, in firefox on both mac and pc(but not everyone's) when you refresh the pg such that it draws from the browser's cache, the buttons and bike animation do not display. Oddly, the photos still load consitently and in time as if those animations did take place. "oddly" because, the code to load the photos is part of an event listener, listening for the completion of the bike animation. So the code executes properly, despite the movieclips not appearing on stage(these movieclips are in library to begin and in my documnt class I instatiate them as follows:
realtors_btn = new RealtorsButton();
buyers_btn = new BuyersButton();
bike = new Bike(X-150);
[Code]....
also, originally I had this same issue in IE, but after switching from swfObject 2.0 to adobe's ac_runactivecontent.js method, I elliminated the issue in IE.

Im struggling with the change over from as2 to as3, but I'm determined to stick with it. I've read the fine tutorial at [URL] as well as others (many from kirupa) , and am starting to see the bigger picture, but putting into practice is another thing
I want to: Using a movie clip in the library (eg redMC) make 7 or from, spaced in the x axis.I kinda get that I should create a function to create a new object associate it to the movieClip in the library ( movieBtn = new mc_Btn(), set some for its attributes while in a loop and add it to the the stage (this.addChild(movieBtn)
[Code]...
This works I see a line of identical movieClips on stage, ace!Ok I have an event listener that traces "clicked" for every button. But how do I get to tracing "button1 clicked" or "button5 clicked"? ie the event function should have something that will playmovie(i); where ie is relevent to the button clicked iebutton3 whould iniciate playmovie(3), pass the number 3 to the function playmovie, and off we go.Where in this process should I do this?

I would like to know the actionscript for a button to play a movieclip in the library (which is a transition between pages, named "transition1"). However, I have not inserted this movieclip onto the stage in any frame. Is it possible to use actionscript to play this movie clip for its duration on top of the content and then get rid of it from view?
