ActionScript 2.0 :: Duplicate Movie Clip With An External Imaged Loaded In It?
Oct 3, 2007
I have a movie clip in which I loaded an external JPG to. Well, this movie clip works as a thumbnail and, as I click in it, I want the thumb's image to be loaded ("again") in another movie clip. duplicateMovieCLip does not seem to work.I don't want to load the image twice (as it strikes me as bandwidth waste..). Does this make sense? Or must I be load the image twice? (of course..I could use smaller images for thumbnails..)

I 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:

Click on one of the menu options - "corporatecommunications" or "events&entertainment"
I fixed the earlier progressBar problem, but when you click on an image thumbnail to load it, it pops up regular size for maybe 1/30th of a second before being scaled to the proper size.
Here's my code:
Code:
// set a variable to hold image name
var imageNow:String;
// scale empty movie clip that will hold the image
function iHoldSize() {

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.

I am working on an isometric engine called IsoEngine in AS3. I need to duplicate an swf externally loaded. The problem is that after being loaded and duplicated the resulting movieClip lose all its embedded actionScript. Therefore a clip containing 2 or more frames will loop infinitely regardless the stop() that you would have put on the targeted swf fileI am using the following function to duplicate my swf loaded:
var targetClass:Class = Object(loader.content).constructor;
var duplicateisplayObject = new targetClass();

Is 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.

I posted last month about how to duplicate a movie with a mc in the library in the timeline.

My goal is to make a wrap around effects for animated menu icons that use separate swf files. this is the function I try to create, but my concern is in the else statement:

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?

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.

Duplicate 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)"?
