ActionScript 2.0 :: Delaying A Loaded Movie?
Jun 24, 2005
I'm making an image gallery that has an MC as a background that resizes itself due to the size of the image. How can I use the loadMovie function when the button is pressed it will resize the background to the size THEN display the loaderMC that will load the image.How can I achieve this effect? I'm wanting to use the reusable MC (from Kirupa tutorials) or something that will load the image and show a status bar for the loading.

I have a loop and in it i am attaching a movie clip (basiccly its just a row with data). The movieclip has a alpha fade in it. Now I want to delay each attachmovie function so that the movies are attached one by one rather then trow them all on the screen at once. (plus it looks better with the alpha fade).
I tried the setInterval but it wont work (ex.:Interval is 1 sec, and if im going to attach 6 MC, flash wait 6 * 1 sec, then show them all)
And is it possible to attach a movieclip inside a othermovieclip thats not on the same frame (the other MC is on frame 10)?

I'm trying to create something that you could use in a game that shows you the points adding to your total score little by little (instead of it adding it all at once). I've managed to make a timer delay, but it will still only update once and I don't know what to do.
Code:
var pointBuffer:Number = 500;
var totalPoints:Number = 1000;

I have been searching the internet for help on how to delay code within a single function, but every solution I have found so far relies on creating event listeners for a timer and then running commands from the event handler functions.I am writing a 'console' type interface where the user types in a string which is, upon pressing enter, processed in one function and then sent to a final function to display the result.[code]I want to somehow insert a pause between each call of that last function, updateDisplay.

I'd like to delay the handling for some captured events in ActionScript until a certain time. Right now, I stick them in an Array when captured and go through it when needed, but this seems inefficient.

I have been trying to execute functions in a sequential order, but I am totally stuck, and I dont know what else to do. I basically want different movie clips to be faded in and out, but one after the other... just like a movie intro with the name, stars etc.. text fading in, text fading out, etc etc... Maybe this is TOTALLY retarded what I am trying to do, but I didnt want to do the classic motion tween in the frames, cause thats just too tedious, and on the other hand I want to learn AS3.0. So here is the code, I am fading in the first movieclip, and displaying/delaying it with the timer function, so it sits on the screen for 4 seconds, until it fades out and stops. Problem is that both clips act the same, and I dont know how to delay //text 2 (clipTwo).
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.utils.Timer;

I have used the tutorial for Hover captions found here:[URL].. and I have searched the forum but can't find an answer to my specific question.
I'd like to have the caption appear after the user hovers for 2 or 3 seconds----rather than immediately.
I have been told to use setTimeout for this but am not sure how to do that.

I'm trying to use the scroll pane component for the first time, and I've spent most of the day getting nowhere. Based on my experience with other components and with loading content into movie clips, I expected that I would point my scroll pane to its content and be off and running, but that hasn't happened.

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'm not sure how to describe what I'm seeking, but basically I have a movie loaded in a clip and when the user clicks a button, I want the loaded movie to perform some kind of action (fade out or whatever) while the new movie is loaded.
Probably something simple, but I'm an idiot,

I have an external swf (sub.swf) that loads into my main swf. The external swf has buttons of its own...that I would like to use to load additional external swf's in its place. I click on the buttons and nothings happens.
My current code is as follows:
All of the following code is in my main.swf
================================
//Location where the external SWFs will load
var Xpos:Number=18;
var Ypos:Number=10;
[Code]...
External swf has no code except for a stop action.
I pieced this current code based on various articles I've found on the net.

I have 2 EXTERNAL movies being loaded with initial load of my site into my main.swf, one of which (movingbg.swf) is being loaded with a preloader. The problem is that my other movie (menubar.swf) is loaded before my first movie. I think I should use the _visible property to solve this and here is what I have so far...

my problem is that i need to make a reisze, cause the screen resolution for other users. My main and news movie works perfect, but the others movies re-scale everything bigger. The problem of the external loaded movie is: this movie needs the funktion:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
If i dont have this code inside the movie is not going to resize fullscreen into the main movie. Inside this movie im scalling photos and some mc's You can take a look what i mean under: [URL]
If you take a look to the bar where the Number of pictures (30) are you will see that the lower bar and the pictures is not going to scale to fill the full screen if i delete the this code;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";

My _root movie is nothing more than a interface with navigation buttons. When someone clicks a button another swf is loaded into an empty movie clip on _root.
My Problem:I understand loaders and use them all the time, however, I still to this day have never gotten a loader to work with loading an external movie into a currently playing movie. (ie: in my _root movie you press the "Searching" button and searching.swf is loaded into _root.contents --> contents is the empty movie clip)So anyways... where does the loader go? The only results I've ever had is as SOON as the loadMovie method is called the movie hangs until the entire movie clip is loaded. Then the loader runs... thus making it totally useless.

say i have a main movie, into this movie is loaded another movie on level_1.
is there any actionscript that allows a button inside the loaded movie control the main movie? i.o.w. can a button inside the loaded movie tell the main movie to go to another scene?
+ i am looking for code for that same button to unload the movie it is in itself..

I have a movie that opens up full screen and load an external movie into it. No problem there but I want the loaded movie to keep its original size and not resize with the full screen movie. In the screenshot, you see how the yellow external movie loads into the fullscreen green movie. The white rectangle is only for size reference (photoshopped it in) and is not in the actual flash movies. The yellow movie is supposed to be 800x125 pixels but resizes with the fullscreen of the green movie.
