Im having a problem with centering an object in my movie. When it loads in flash player, there is no problem. But when it opens in the internet browser the movie clip isn't centered and once I go to re size the Internet browser, the code starts to work and centers the movie clip from stage.[code]
View 4 RepliesI would like to call up images from myXML and I would like to center them on the stage. Each object is a different size therefore I can't place them to a set _x position. Hopefully someone may have the answer.... here's the function that will call up the firstimage:
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween(content_mc, "_x", normal, 0, 480, .75, true);
content_mc.loadMovie(image[0]+".jpg", 1);
content_mc_num();
}
The highlighted '480' is the number i would like to replace to center. I'm not being to vague with this request, otherwise i'll offer more information.
I've been playing around with a code that keeps a specific object on the center of the movie when the window is re-sized. It works well but here is the issue: I don't want the object to be centered at the very center of the window but on a specific x,y coordinate. How can I modify this code to assign an x,y coordinate so that the object will be "centered" in reference to that coordinate?
Next, is the code. "centerlogo" is the object to be centered and "backgroundImage" is as the name implies the background. I know that what i ask has to do with the part under the "//center content" comment
function init()
{
stage.align=StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode=StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
[Code]....
I have a picture of a mine which is nested within an object, nested within another object. Now what I want it that on the keypress of shift, I created mine image at the same position of the tank. The issue is that the main object that is nesting the mine moves, thus not creating at the the center, rather on that position of the object.
Here are how my images go by instance names;
1. Tank Stays in the center
//////
/////
1. Land (moves) -- 2b. map -- 3b. All objects that hitTest
|
2a. Objects
|
3b. All the objects that don't get hit (in here is mine.)
I seen alot in many sites. Full screen flash site with objects in the site centering or their predestined position as browser scales.
View 3 RepliesI want to center a big movieclip (1400 px wide) on my stage on stage resize. This big movieclip moves to the right on certain events so I can't use code like this:
currentPage.x = ((stage.stageWidth/2) - (currentPage.width/2))
Is there a way to maybe use its offset from 0 (the left side of the stage 'viewport') and use that offset in centering? The movieclip only changes in x.
I'm having a hard time setting up my website page to center (vertical and horizontal) my flash movie in a browser. I was finally able to get it to fit screen no matter what resolution, but it looks more to me like it's aligning itself top/left.

I have a 2037px wide flash movie that I purposely made that wide so that it would take up just about any screen.
What I'm trying to do is simply center it and basically hide the overflow on smaller screens when the movie appears on the end user's monitor. I can't get it to center, however, as it always just wants to align to the left. I don't want to use the 100% feature because that distorts the movie.
I've tried using the "overflow: hidden; text-align: center;" CSS feature, to no avail. Is there a way in CSS to make this work? Do I need to use javascript or something? If so, which script do I use?

View 2 RepliesI am needing to load an external image (probably jpg) into a movie. I am using an empty movie clip, giving it an instance name and the code:
Code:
instance1.loadMovie("image.jpg");
What I also need to do is be able to either place that image in a specific location on the stage or just center it. Any advice you can give me on that?
I am attempting to do something like this: Use two movie clips. One is a holder that contains the second movie clip, which is where the image is actually being loaded. Then, I am using the following math:
Code:
instance1.isntance2.x - instance1._width/2 instance1.isntance2.y - instance1._width/2
Does this look like it would work? Is there anyway I can set instance1 to have a width that is equal to the size of the main movie (1024 x 768)?
I'm working on a dynamicly resizable photo gallery...I've got all the pics loaded into thumb MCs, and everything is working...except I don't know what the best way to center the objects is.The closest I got was putting one MC in the center and putting one MC on one side, then the other and so on. However, this doesn't work for odd numbers of clips...what do I do?

View 3 RepliesI'm currently working in Flash 8 with Actionscript 2.0.
I've been trying different alternatives and none of them are working. I've even posted here previously and tried a few things but I haven't quite resolved my centering to stage problem. Some of you may have already read pieces of this from another post.
I have a landscape that functions sort of like a 360 vr tour. The main movie clip directly on the stage is labeled, "mainMovie", and within it is another movieclip labeled, "singleStrip".
To simulate the 360 vr tour, there's script inside, "mainMovie" to duplicate "singleStrip". Also, inside the "singleStrip" movie clip, I have different elements appearing through the landscape, in this case, we'll use letters as an example. The letters A - Z are sitting on the landscape throughout the entire "singleStrip" movie clip.
Everything rotates fine with the script that's placed some sensitive area movie clips that are placed on the root level. When you place your mouse pointer to the left edge of the stage, the landscape shifts left, when you move the mouse pointer to the right edge, the landscape shifts right, (or vice versa, I can't remember).
The problem I'm having is for the letters that are in view on the stage, I want the user to be able to "click" on them and then that letter zoom up to the center of the stage, (through the "x" coordinate). I'm having difficulty with this since the letter movieclips, (example, "letterA"), are within the "singleStrip" movie clip, which sits inside the "mainMovie" movie clip, which are both constantly moving and their x position continues to change.
I've been using the tween class in order to animate them with easing and it's usually the "endx" variable that I'm having trouble because I don't know how I can match it up to the center of the stage, whether it's a "endx = stage.width._x /2; " or something else. Here's an example of some of the [code]...
I have this flash website where i use Stage.scaleMode to dynamically resize the swf depending on the browser size. (i use A.script 2.0). So the width takes the whole screen and the height is scaled in proportion. My design is in a landscape format. It works fine, except that i need the swf to also be vertically centered in the browser Window. (explanantion - on certain screens, example a 19 inch PC monitor which is quite "squared", my flash movie expands the whole way across the width, and the height in proportion, but as my design is in landscape, i have a big empty space in the browser below the swf.)
This is how it is: This is how it should be:
Here is the code:
stop();
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale"
Stage.align = "TL";
[Code].....
So I am working on a full screen website, and background_mc I want to be centered and scaled 100% to the stage. But I also do not want the image to loose it's proportions. Here is my code so far, it is only seeming to center the movieclip:
Code: Select allfscommand ("fullscreen", true);
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";

When I open a new document in flash, the stage is in the top left corner of my screen and I cannot figure how to center it in the middle. I cannot go to the left or above the stage which is making it very difficult to work with as I cannot access those areas.
View 1 RepliesI know theres probably a simple solution but it's escaping me at the moment.
I have a centered swf, I want it to stop centering if the swf reaches the side nav so they dont overlap.
function Center(mc) {
mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if(mc._x >500){
[Code]....
this stops the centering when it hits 500, but it stops all centering because it's stuck on 500.
I have used the centering pop up technique, but my problem lies with the boreders. I'm using the pop ups for jpgs, but it seems to have a bit of a boreder at the top and the left of the image, how can I get rid of this. I used the tut on this site for centered popups. an example of my problem is on my site at [URL]..
View 4 RepliesI have a movieClip that starts out a a specific scale. I then tween the images properties and as it tweens it also scales again. What I'm trying to do as it tweens and scales its obviously changes the width and height of the movieClip. So I'm trying to constantly keep the clips position in the center of the stage.
I'm using tweenMax and I tired an update event so I could keep checking the width and height of the clip as it scales and then using this code to center it but it doesn't seem to be centering the image. On other thing to note is my MovieClip is using its top left corner as the registration point.

I'm told that the following chunk of script will center the stage on resize, but not knowing much of anything about actionscript,
myListener = new Object(); myListener .onResize = function () { ... } Stage.addListener( myListener ); // later ... Stage.removeListener( myListener );
I've come across a new snag to a previous project. I'm not quite sure why, but when the full image is loaded to the stage, it is not centering it properly. The trace of fullLoader returns "0" for the width and height of the full-sized image, and I'm not quite sure how to pass the necessary information into the showPicture function so that it correctly centers the image. I tried tracing the content of fullLoader and got an error message.[code]
View 2 RepliesI have a movieclip on the stage which has the dimensions 400x400.I currently load images,and add them to this component.Each image is a different size. At this moment in time, they are placed at position 0,0 within the movieclip container.Some of the code looks like
var data:XML;
var total:Number;
var url_list = new Array();[code]....
Is there anyway I could get the loaded images placed at the center of the movieclip container.I dont know if I have to do something like subtract the images width and height from the containers width and height, and then divide by 2?
- How can I center my main SWF inside the browser without stretching the the swf? I just want it to be center both horizontal and vertical when you resize the browser.
- I found some tutorials but it is only referring to just ONE movieclip. What if I want to center the whole stage? Is there any other way to call the stage that has content in it?
I'm trying to center an swf in a browser without using table width and height 100% and the most promising way i've found so far is to set
Stage.scaleMode = "noscale";
in the first frame and then set the width and height of the object tag in the html to 100%. However, i'm having trouble getting this to work with the doctype in some newer browsers.
