ActionScript 2.0 :: DuplicateMovieClip Duplicate Items Inside Of The Movieclip?
Sep 30, 2009
I have a movieclip, "holder", that has a lot of movieclips contained inside of it. I am trying to duplicate "holder", as well as all of the movieclips inside of it and create a 2nd movieclip called "holder2". Below is an example of the problem I am having. The movieclip "holder2" is created, but it does not duplicate the movieclip "box" that is inside of "holder". Is it possible to do this using duplicateMovieClip? If not, is there another way of accomplishing the same thing?

while trying to make a gallery I come across this problem of wanting do duplicate movieclips containing loaded images. Seems like whatever I do, no duplicates. My original script is bigger, but my problem also shows in this little example. The first created image in the mcClip.Holder shows just fine, also the trace and _x commands work. The clip will just not duplicate .
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcClip",this.getNextHig hestDepth());
mcClip.createEmptyMovieClip("Holder",this.getNextH ighestDepth());
var mclLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

Is it possible to use duplicateMovieClip to copy a movieClip into another movieclip, or is it only possible to duplicate it inside one and the same containermovieclip?

I'm having an issue with duplicating movie clips in actionscript 3.The code I'm using is:
Code:
var screen1 = new screenTemp();
addChild(container1);
Where screenTemp is the class i set under the movie clips:
properties->export for actionscript
The object is successfully added to the stage, however it is loosing all of the actionscript and 3d rotation that i have set up in the original movie clip.How do i duplicate a MovieClip and keep absolutely everything inside the clip intact?

I have 170 images that I need to place on the same place on the left side of the stage and and have them move across the stage one at a time, increase in size and then fade out after 10 sec. The sequence then continues for all 169 images. My initial thoughts are to animate the first image inside a movie clip, duplicate it and swap the image. When I tried this it worked fine until the image had shape tweened to the larger size (at this point the image displays for 10 sec and fades out). At the key frame at this point the image changed back to the original one. What do I need to do to make the new image visible throughout the whole movie clip when I swap the image like this? Is there a better way to produce this type of animation? I am using Flash Professional 8 and quite new to the world of Flash and Action Script.

I would like to duplicate a movieClip that exists in a SWF that has been loaded into the main movie and place this duplicate into a different SWF that is loaded intop the main movie. I am not sure if this is possible and can't get this to work.I have made a simple movie with 2 movieclips and the code inside of one of the boxes tries to duplicate the other movieclip using this code:
[AS]
duplicateMovieClip(_root.my_mc, "my2_mc", 2);
my2_mc._x += 100;
[/AS]
As I say I'm not sure I can target MCs in that are not on the same level as the function is called from.

im having some issues getting the duplicateMovieClip function work correctly. Im trying to create a drag and drop of a duplicate movie clip, so the clip stays in place but also drags as a duplicate clip.
The issue here is, if i use this code:
on (press) {
this.duplicateMovieClip("circle1", 1);
_root.circle1.startDrag();
}
It works perfectly. The movie duplicates and the duplicate drags. My issue is, im trying to do this within its own movie clip, and it seems when I try using duplicatemovie clip inside of a movie clip the whole thing just breaks. Is there something im not doing right here or do duplicate clips just not work within other movie clips?

My problem is that when I click the letter movieclip it does create the duplicate as it should and it starts to drag the duplicate mc. However, when I release the clip it doesn't stop dragging? I realized that if I put onMouseUP event instead of onRelease it actually does stop dragging when I release the mouse. I would, however not like to use the onMouseUP event if possible.

I'm having trouble going through a multidimensional array and weeding out duplicate items. For instance, here is some simple code:
Code:
var arr1:Array=new Array(1,2,3)
var arr2:Array=new Array(2,3,4)
var arr3:Array=new Array(arr1,arr2)
var arr4:Array=new Array(1,2,3)
[code]....
Is there an error in my logic? Or programming? Or is there a different way I would have to go about comparing array items than the array.some() method? My only other idea is to use a loop to go over every item individually in the nested array; is this the right track?

I have an array of objects. Each object has a color attribute which could be "red", "blue", "yellow", "green", "orange" or "purple". There are 20-30 objects in the array so colors repeat. My goal is to sort the array so that no colors are next to each other. Distribution of colors is not exactly even but close.
This is what I have so far. It checks the next and previous object for a color match and if it finds a match it moves it to the end of the array.
private function sortColors():void
{
var getNext:uint;
var getPrev:uint;
[Code].....
This works OK but if there is more of a certain color they end up repeating at the end. I could add something to the end to throw those back into the mix but I feel like there must be a better way.

I have the movie clip "movie" in my library and the button "btn" on the stage.Now everytime I release "btn", I want to add "movie" to the stage and have it play from predetermined coordinates (let's say _x = 20, _y = 20)...So far, I've tried
Actionscript Code:
on (release) {duplicateMovieClip("movie", "movie2", 1);}
but that doesn't do the trick because it doesn't multiply the displayed movies.Everytime you release "btn", "movie" breaks off and restarts,I want it to finish its animation and have ANOTHER one spawn at the origin...

I have created a MovieClip in the library that consist of buttons, graphics and other MovieClips. When the movie starts I attach this movie clip to a newly createdEmptyMovieclip like so

So all that works fine, except when I add a onRelease event to a duplicated MovieClip it does not seem to respond. So I was wondering if the duplicateMovieClip function does not copy the button inside the original MovieClip. The code for the button is

As this involves assorted dragging interactions to understand this explanation take a look at the file.URL...it should work like the last item on this page, called exploring kite interactive Url...I have a mc which includes 5 dots that can be dragged in various ways.each one needs to be limited to the stage area when it is being dragged.The limit should only apply to the dot when being dragged. If a dot being dragged causes another to exit the stage area that is fine.I have tried a few ways, none work too smoothly.One issue is that a dot which stops dragging at the edge can be hard to pick again.Another issue is that if you drag really fast you can drag a dot offstage. This is usually when the top or bottom dot is dragged quickly from where it has stopped at the edge and the mouse is released just outside the stage.FLA is attached.

I have an Array where in position 0, there are two items "name1" and "name2", then in position 1, there is only 1 item "name3", and position 2 there is only 1 item "name4".
Now when I trace like this:
trace(exampleArray[0].length)
The result is 2;
But when I trace like this:
trace(exampleArray[1].length)
The result is 5;
I understand that on the second trace its counting the length of the item so its the number of letters that its returning. I'm just wondering how can I get it to return 1, which is the number of items in that position which is what I'm interested in.

I'm trying to create a little linking menu, for that I want to use items and then have some text within those items. When the user then clicks on the item, it's supposed to link. It all has to be loaded externally from an xml file. Now, I can get it to work half the way, the items come up, but it doesn't load the text, and it doesn't link either.
My AS:
[AS]var item_spacing = 50;
var item_count = 0;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;

I have a basic XML menu that dynamically attaches the menuItem instances to the stage. They are being attached to the root timeline, but I want to put all of the actionscript inside a movieclip called "menu1_mc". I am having some trouble with the proper syntax, because when I move the code inside of the movieclip, I can't get them to attach to the stage unless I still reference _root. I'd like them to attach at (0,0) of the menu1_mc movieclip.

I have an AS2 .fla with all of my stage items on the timeline as opposed to inside a container swf. I must chose Center vertical and Horizontal options in the HTML alignment options when publishing in order for my movie to be perfectly centered in the middle of the browser. I would like to have a FULL Browser Background Image, however when I try using the following code, my background ("bg") does not fill the entire browser.
what I am doing wrong and if it is even possible to have a full browser background image while still using CENTER alignment in the HTML publish settings? I have tried the following code with and without the Stage align settings and with the xy coordinates centered-still no luck!
bg.Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
bg._width =Stage.width;
bg._height =stage.stageHeight;
bg.x = 0;
bg.y = 0;
