I'd like to create an animated background for my latest gig using Flash. My only issue (as of right now) is different browser sizes. I know a way to make a standard background resize (meaning no nasty scroll bars) using Javascript, but it's not working with the embedded movie.
I have created a website with different sections (contact, portfolio ...) -> all sections have videos in the background.Each section is a different swf with separate buttons so:I use the "loadMovie" to connect them and "video pause" to stop the videos they contain. The website works, but when you go to another section (clicking on another navigation button), the previous one keeps sounding in the background. HERE IS THE CODE:ActionScript Code:/* Click to Load/Unload SWF or Image from a URL.Clicking on the symbol instance loads and displays the specified SWF or image URL. Clicking on the symbol instance a second time unloads the SWF or image.
I inherited a flash website about a year ago.. not sure what version it was originally done in. I've made changes on the model last year using CS3 Flash Action script 2, but don't remember the flash version when published. The audio in question is the music that plays in the background when you get on the website:
[URL]
When I changed the image of the model this last week using CS4, I published it as Flash8 actionscript 2... now, the music plays on Mac Safari and Mac Firefox, but not on the Windows versions of IE or Firefox..
this is the code called sound control
onClipEvent(load) { _root.soundstatus="on"; _root.mySound = new Sound(_level0);
[Code]....
then there's the stop() that's used when the music is toggled off..
I've tried updating the flash player in Windows to the latest release, and I even tried republishing as flash 10, just not sure where to troubleshoot this..
I Have 3 Movies:MAIN.SWF, contains loading movie actions for Nav.swf and Home.swf.NAV.SWF, contains navagation menu loaded on Level 2 in Main HOME.SWF, contains slideshow for home page loaded on Level 1 in Main In NAV.SWF, there is a MOVIE CLIP "graphmc", which contains a BUTTON "graphicbtn", When this button is clicked, I'd like the HOME.SWF (which is loaded into Main.swf on Level 1) to fade out and unload, and load and fade in Graphics.SWF in place of it.
Not sure if there's a fix for this or not. I've had this happen to me on the last two sites I've built. I embed the flash movie into my site in Dreamweaver, and everything works perfectly in Safari. When I view the site in Firefox however, the flash movie loads a few pixels off (see pics). Anyone have a fix for this?I've tried setting the vertical align of the movie to "bottom," and I've also tried dragging all of the cells tight in the site. I've even tried rebuilding the site all together. As soon as I bring in the flash, the cells get off in FirefoxSite in Safari:
Because i design on a new mac book pro, my resolutions is very high and the flash movie fits perfect in my screen, just the way i want it to sit in every computer.
But on a computer with a lower resolution, i now that that my web site would be much larger and not fit right.
So how can i make it so the movie adjusts to different resolutions and sits just perfect?
I am making a flipping page book in flash and have had to create sections in different movies because it kept crashing when i tried to have all the pages in the same movie. I have 3 movies 'page flip4', 'pageflip4-2', and 'page flip 4-3' . I have used the code below to go (flip bacwards) from 'page flip4-2' to the frame label ''backflip'' in 'page flip4'..This works fine
Code: on (press) { loadMovieNum("page flip4.swf", 1); }
i have created an online calendar, you can see it on this link this application uses php as well which is called through the actionscript it works fine on firefox browsers, and some versions of IE, the version i have is explorer 7 (which i really dont like), and it doesnt work well at all. dont know if it works on safari or other browsers, i havent checked it out yet (the main problem is trying to write more than one message, it isnt displayed on the messageboard on IE).
I am loading external swf's into a main load.swf, using a Moviecliploader object. What I basically want to do is that, after an external movie, say home.swf, loads another external swf, say about.swf, home.swf should be unloaded.
home.swf is loading about.swf into the _root.mc_holder, which is placed inside load.swf. I want all external files to be placed within this holder. Now this is working with some files, but not with others. My standard code within all files is this:
//code within home.swf to load about.swf var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();var ldrlistener = new Object();loader.addListener(ldrlistener);ldrlistener.onLoadStart =
i want to make an presentation,, for which.. at frame i click a button on frame 9 it goes to frame 10 and plays.. like my script on frame 10 is below
[Code]....
and when i click another button to go frame 1 from the same page at 10,, placed beside the loading external swf ,, it goes,, but the loaded external swf file is not going ,, or the external file not cleaning,, not removing.
I have a button ( 3 buttons ) and each button is assigned to Load a movie. When you click one of the buttons, the LoadMovie on Level 1 is good. Now here is my problem, how will I unload the current movie before Loading the next one. I want to UNLOAD the CURRENT MOVIE first before loading another MOVIE.
im having troubles unloading a swf file that is 2 levels above my main movie.Basically I have a main movie and I have actionscript on the timeline which corresponds to a button which loads a swf (eg my web portfolio work):
This all works....Then in this swf I have another button which again loads another swf on top to show a particular piece of work and the code on the timeline to correspond to the button is:
This works also....but I come into problems when I want to create a button in this third swf file which then closes this Dior.swf so you are left with the bottom two still showing. I already have a close button on the Digital.swf which works a charm to get you back to the main movie and the code for this is:
on (release) { _root.container.unloadMovie() unloadMovieNum(2);
[code]...
how I can close this third swf to still show the two below?? I have tried so many options but none seem to work!
How can I unload a movie from with in the UI Loader. I have loaded a movie into my UI Loader and there is a go back button And I simply want to unload that movie and return to normal.
I have a main SWF that loads in an external SWF(2) which has a button that when clicked loads in another external SWF(3). (we'll call them SWF 2 and 3) what I was finding was when I clicked the button on the external SWF (2), when SWF (3) loaded in the contents of the main SWF and SWF (2) were still visible . However I managed to remove the contents of SWF(2) by doing unload movie easily as they run on the same timeline...the problem is I don't know how to unload movie on the main SWF when SWF(3) is being fired because it doesn't run on the same timeline as the main SWF. Surely it is somehow accessible since it is visible in the background ...even if they aren't on the same timeline? how would i get the movie to unload in the main SWF?
Is there a way to unload the home_2.swf from the index page when a button is clicked on the home.swf?
Home_2.swf is sort of a splash animation that plays over the navigation panel and then sits on the side so when any of the nav buttons are clicked on in level 4 .swf I want the level 53 .swf to unload.
im using addChild to load a movieclip after a button click. It loads to the middle of the movie clip where there's a stop action and a close button, whick jumps to the next frame to play out the movie clip, but then it just starts over.
I don't dev in Flash too much anymore, and I'm not up on AS3. Therefore, I developed this little project in AS2 (CS5.5) and seems that I've opened a can of worms.
I've got a launcher movie on _level1 that loads movies onto _level2 based on the button that is clicked. That all works well and good, but I can't figure out how to unload the movie when it finishes playing, so as to return to the menu.
Some of the FLVs that are being loaded were too big to add to a timeline. So I had to use FLVPlayback to load the FLVs into my level 2 movie. I don't know how to tell FLVPlayback to close its SWF when playback has finished.
can a loaded movie unload itself, ive tried but nothing positive this is the thing, i have a sectiion tha i loaded, and i want a close button in that loaded movie, not in the actual main movie
My flash movie has two scenes at end of scene 2 i have load another movie using loadmovie. Now I wanna unload the loaded movie and directly go to scene 2 . Is there anyway by which I can directly jump to scne 2 instead of going through scene 1. I am using flash 5 and both moovies have same dimensions.
I have xml which is loaded in a movie clip but i can't seem to be able to unload that movie clip when i need to. I tried everything and the code seems right. I'm guessing it's because of some kinda path issue. Maybe someone else might see something i'm missing.
This is the code i am using to load the xml in the movie clip:
Code: var r = _root; r.clipArr = new Array(); r.menuXml = new XML();
[Code].....
Here is the file that i am working on. Just download it from my server and take a look:
Is there a way to automatically unload movies when a new movie is loaded? eg: 5 buttons, 5 bit of art. At the moment they overlap instead of unloading before the new one loads.
I have a button that loads an outside .swf into a blank container. That works fine, however, I want to use the same button to unload that movie. Basically I want it to work as a toggle button.
