I want to duplicate a movie clip for each item selected from an XML file. I can't seem to find anything that works. Can somebody give me something to start with?
View 2 RepliesI am having problems making a movie clip goto a different frame when an item on a list box is selected. Here is my code
list.getSelectedItem().label;
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(list=="2"){
mc.gotoAndStop(2);
}else
mc.gotoAndStop(1);
}
I have a menu with many sub menus. I need to change the color of the selected button and then move on to the sub menu. My menu is horizontal and now it's not obvious the path that you follow.
View 2 RepliesI have several movie clips on the stage. They are draggable. I want to be able to drag the movie clip, then when it is dropped, a copy of that movie clip will appear where the first one had been, and the first one will just stay where it is on the screen.
However, I'm running into problems with the syntax.
Here is my current code:
[Code].....
I have this datagrid:
<mx:DataGrid id="dgCompetenteN" includeIn="Test" left="10" right="472" top="69" bottom="149"
dataProvider="{colCompetente}" editable="false">
<mx:columns>
[Code]....
What I want to do is, when I select an item in the datagrid, the selected item of the dropdown should be the correct one (the one which has the field idCompSuperioara equal to the third element in the selected datagrid row).
I am in search of finding a way to display shopping cart items in a flash 8 datagrid in the order it was chosen by the user & also to ability to delete an item if the user choses. Currently I have the items displaying however they are displaying in a position as it is stored and called in the array. [code]
View 5 RepliesI have used states in my application.The thing is I have made the first item in my list to be selected. so I gave like this,
if(itemIndex == 0)
this.currentState="selected";
this works fine.The problem is when other item is selected the first item does not change its state,it remains in the selected state until its clicked.My code looks like this,
<s:BorderContainer id="outerCont" width="275" height="100" borderVisible="false"
backgroundColor.normal="#3D3C3C" backgroundAlpha.selected="0.1"
backgroundColor.selected="{data.color}">
My states are like this,
<s:states>
<s:State name="normal" />
<s:State name="hovered" />[code]........
I�d be grateful if anyone can answer what should be a simple problem. I�m building a Flash program that has many movie clips (like they all do). At one stage I need to duplicate a specific movie clip and make it appear in another movie clip.
PS: The movie clip needs to be added by actionscript as it is made on the fly in the program, hence it cant be in the original .fla file � if that makes sense.

View 4 RepliesIs there a way to duplicate a movie clip into another movie clip?
So far I have only been able to get the movie clip to duplicate itself within the movie clip it is already in though I am calling the duplication from another movie clip (which is where I want it duplicated into).
Basically I have pictures (as movie clips) in a scroller. When you click on a picture I want it to duplicate that picture into another Movie Clip outside of scroller on the _root level. This outside movie clip is actually calling the duplication using onClipEvent(enterFrame). So far, though, it only duplicates itself into the same movie clip and so this duplicated picture also scrolls with the scroller (which isn't what I'm wanting).
Here is the outside movie clip's actionscript:
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//tried the below line as well:
// duplicateMovieClip(showPic, "previewPic", 0);
[Code]...
The above code (using either duplicateMovieClip methods) places the duplicated movie clip at _root.showPic instead of the outside movie clip.
All i want to do is duplicate a movie clip then put it into another movie clip. How would i do this? Can i just use the attach movie function
View 2 RepliesI created a scene that allows the user to attach multiple instances of several movie clipsI want the user to be able to manually rotate any movie clip they wish via a button. While I understand how to create the button and write the rotation script, I am completely at a loss on how to go about writing the code that would allow the user to select the MC they want to rotate by first clicking it with their mouse and then rotating it with the button.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to make an interactive floor plan and I am stuck on the final aspect. The user can pick the type of table they want and can add or remove tables. I am using duplicate movie clip for this. There is one type of rectangular table which I need to rotate, the problem I am having is that I�d like the last table selected (dragged) to be the one which can be rotated by the arrow keys if desired, and I just can seem to get it right
View 1 RepliesI posted last month about how to duplicate a movie with a mc in the library in the timeline.

how can i duplicate a movie clip and then place it on a certain place on the stage
View 5 RepliesWhy this code is not working. Here I have a movie clip named 'mainmovie' in the scene. And inside that movie I have a text box named 'textBox' Look at this code the movie is duplicating in my code but the value is not coming inside the text box...
[Code]...
I have found a little FLA which demonstrates how the duplicate movie clip can be used.I tried to simplify and adjust the AS according to my needs. With some part i was successful but with some i wasn't.
i want to be able to set the beginning X position of the clips as "0" in X values. but when i assign "0" to the this._x , it naturally generates/duplicates all the clips at the same point. What I'm trying to achieve by doing this is, when the stage is scaled in means of width my clips should start to originate from the very left of the stage whatever the stage's width is.
my second question is how can i adjust the speed?When I stretch the stage width they(duplicated clips) all speed up in order to travel the whole stage in the same amount of time as they do with the initial/beginning stage width. I want the speed to stay constant whatever the distance is.
I have a series of movie clips that are dynamic text fields created with the createTextField call. The text field is dragged and dropped onto a box. At that point I want to create a duplicate of that text field and to then position it on top of the box. The code appears to be creating a duplicate of the original clip and the traces are all successful, however, the actual movie clip is not displayed anywhere on screen.
I feel that it has something to do with the depth. Originally, I was passing this.getNewHighestDepth to duplicateMovieClip but that seemed to result in my existing text fields disappearing instead!

Ok, I have a simple duplicate movie clip for loop, but I want the duplication of the movie clip to be delayed by a setInterval. This is what I have so far:
[AS]myNumber = 10;
for (count=0; count<myNumber; count++) {
myClip.duplicateMovieClip("myClip"+count, count);
this["myClip"+count].clipText.text = count;
this["myClip"+count]._x = (this["myClip"+count]._width+2)*count;
}[/AS]
works fine. How could I add a setInterval to delay that script?
in the first duplicate move clip I'm loading an array. I want to duplicate the movie "slide" again. so i get the same movie with the array and an other name on the right of the original movie.at this moment It only loads one slice from the array and I need all//mMaskedSLice//array with the gotoandstop

look at this thread [URL] now the movie works which is great but i want to have a lot more balls. i could create 150 of them and give each an instance name but that would take forever. is there a way to do this with actionscript. i know i can duplicate a movie clip although i don't know how to put them in that box formation like i have them in this movie but can i duplicate them into that formation and assign each an instance name that consists of a number so that when [i] is equal to their instance name the clip will play.

View 2 RepliesDuplicate a movie clip with the click of a mouse?
For example if you had a shooting thing and you had to launch an object called "pro" (instance name)
how would you duplicate "pro" to get it so that a repeated hit of the right arrow button would launch multiple "pro(s)"?
how do i duplicate just one movie clip on each click of the button, and the _x of each clip will increase accordingly?
