I am building a project that loads 30 images in to empty movie clips. I want one of the images to apear on top randomly. What is happening now is that the first swf in my loop always shows up on top.Here is a link to waht i am doing:Here is some code i am working with:

I'm building a project that dynamically loads external images and audio into it.The images in the external folder are numbered sequentially in the order they display as you click through them (1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, etc). No problem.There is audio that is supposed to fade in a play with certain images. (1.mp3 fades in when 1.jpg is displayed.). No problem.Here's where it gets tricky... At least for me.Not every jpg has an audio file associated with it. The last audio that was triggered needs to keep playing until another jpg with cooresponding audio file plays, at which point the two audio files need to smoothly crossfade.1.jpg displayed => 1.mp3 fades in and plays.
(user clicks)
2.jpg displayed => 1.mp3 crossfades to 2.mp3.
(user clicks)

I've been trying to reproduce an animation effect I've seen on the Armani website, but I'm stuck trying to duplicate an empty movie clip with image loaded into it. The duplicates exist and I can move them, but they are invisible. Since the duplicates reside on depths above the intitial clip I'm confused about why they are invisible. The duplicates are scripted to follow behind the initial clip - each offset by 30 pixels (though I don't have that working perfectly).

Ok so basically I have a button that will create a empty movie clip and attach some things into that clip When the button is first clicked. My problem is that when the button is clicked a second time. The clip will reload itself and I need it to duplicate. So if I hit the button 5 times, there would be 5 items on the stage.Here is what I'm doing.
Code:
hold1.onPress = function(){
trace("your hit me");

I am in the process of building my new website and am having some loading issues. Here is a bit of info. gallery_stage This is the main movie that I am loading everything into. This movie is places in the center of an html page in the portfolio section of my site. gallery_menu.swf this is the navigation menu that I am loading onto the 'stage'. Currently it loads insode of a container 'menuload'. This is the code that I'm using to load it.

I'm still having some problems with loading an .swf into multiple empty movie clips. The AS that I'm using loads all the clips into empty movie clips at different depths on _level0. When I run the main .swf everything starts fine but when I rollover or rollout of any of the loaded clips it only effects the first MC loaded.

View 12 RepliesI'm working on an isometric-view prototype game, and I thought a good way to do the collision detection would be to put four empty movie clips on each of the character's base corners (it's a cube), convert those corner's _x and _y to the Stage, and go from there. Problem is, how to get it to work.My character is on the stage in an otherwise empty "clip" MovieClip. Here's what I have inside my character:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
var point:Object = new Object();
point.rightX = right._x;[code]....
Whenever I trace any of these, it always traces the local coordinates. Otherwise, everything is fine.
Is it possible to create a completely dynamic menu by creating empty movie clips and loading external images into them? I'm experimenting with this, but it seems there is no way to create rollover/release functions for these dynamically created MC's.
View 6 Repliesproblem was that when I added a Dynamic text box with a UIScrollBar, my images wouldn't load into my empty movie clip (there's a progressBar too).I hadn't named the UIScrollBar. It still scrolled the text as it should, but apparently since it wasn't named it was fooking with my other components and thereby with my image loaders.
View 2 RepliesI am undergoing a huge flash project at the moment and as wondering whether or not an approach would work for something. Basically everything in the project involves loading data and movie clips dynamically in certain arrangements etc. I have built everything already bar a couple of things to create demos including dynamically loading mcs from the library etc all with as3, but now I am moving on to loading data dynamically and before I immerse myself completely I was wondering whether or not something is possible. Basically as I mouse over an mc i want a couple of things to come up which would be held in a database, such as a question and an answer, but this data will change quite frequently when the demo is up and running, is it possible for the data to be updated in the dynamic text boxes without mousing out and mousing over again? That is one of my concerns ( I have a couple ).
I had thought of maybe using a timer to query the database every 2 to 3 minutes and use php and mysql with as3 to then load the data into the text boxes, hopefully without having to mouseover the mc again and simply leaving the cursor over the mc the whole time. My main concern is whether or not I can query the database on a regular basis... using a timer method as described above, or is this simply stagnant data? i.e. can i use php and mysql in as3 to continuously query a database?
I am building an AS3 SWF player that loads other SWF files into it, both AS2 and AS3 files will be loaded (one at a time). In the case that it is an AS3 file then the main player SWF can directly call functions and variables inside the loaded AS3 file. Now to handle AS2 files I am using 2 Local Connection channels, one for the player to send info to the loaded SWF and one for the loaded SWF to send info to the player SWF.
Now i never have more than 1 SWF loaded into the player at a time and before i load the next SWF into the player i use..

I am building a SWF player which loads external SWF's.
Rite Now. I could call the external SWF using URLRequest.
but I am getting 2 problems
1. How to run the SWF with the frame rate of the actual SWF movie. If, I increase the frame rate manually, some movies become a lot faster and some are pretty slow.
2. I have set a layer of 450px by 333px. How do I scale the external SWF with showall property to fit in the layer.
i have an xml file
<xmlfile>
<file name="numero1" />
<file name="numero2" />
<file name="numero3" />
[code]....
they can have any names, this is just an example. so..and in my actionscript panel, i have the code:
the var bit...
myxml.ignorewhite = true;
max = 40
[code]....
following this code, still in the for loop, i tried to create an empty movie clip, which loads a secondary swf, called "button.swf". as follows
this.createEmptyMovieClip("myMC",i) // "i" being the depth
myMC._x = 40;
myMC._y = max;
[code]....
so...when i run the movie, it all appears blank. just for your information, if i take the whole ''movie clip creation'' bit out of the whole loop, it works fine. just once, but fine you got the idea what i'm trying to do here.. it's a list of buttons... because i don't want to use the list component. anyway, continuing. i don't know how to make it work. i've been guessing the problems might be with the same instance myMC bit, and i don't know how to create a different one each time(i've been trying though ) or with the depth..which still i can't figure it out.
I am doing a video library. Each category has it's own XML files that feeds it data. Everything works great.However, when I Exported the Release Build. I noticed those XML files are gone(i.e. never got exported). I don't understand why. I need the video library to be dynamic so I can add or remove videos.Anyone know why those files are not exported along with the rest of the project. Like a setting in the preference that I need to fix?

I'm building a portfolio section of our website where we have several sections for example: TVC, DigiFX, Audio, etc.I have one xml file controlling that part which works a treat. The script reads the xml and places (depending on how many nodes are in the xml) x number of tv screens in a carousel style layout where the user can select a category. Now this is where things go pearshaped... When a user selects a 'TV' a variable is set to tell which category was selected and loads the appropate xml for that section.
I have a few traces which gives me this output:
SelectedTV = _level0.TV0
Current XML playlist= portfolio/TVC_playlist.xml
videos Array =
videos Array 0 = undefined
flvTitle 0 = undefined

I am designing a website and have for locations I would like to load a random image from the same folder. Goals we'd like to accomplish with this:
1. We want images to load randomly from same folder
2. We don't want any duplicate images on the page at any one time
3. We have different size movie clips they are loading into.
Is there a way to accomplish this? What script do I use to resize the .jpg to fit whatever movieclip it's loading into and how to I tell it not to load an image that is already loaded in another movieclip?
You can manually save some particular movie clip on a stage as an image by running "Export > Export Image". Is it possible to write an actionscript that would export all movie clips on a stage to images automatically? Or at least is there a way to automate this in any way?
