ActionScript 2.0 :: Load The Clip And Wait Until It Is Finished Then Immediately Choose A Frame On Load?

Jan 25, 2010

I'm using loadMovie() to load external swf's and then send the swf to a specific frame, depending on the button that is pressed.

Code:
on(release){
_root.mc_mainloader.loadMovie("Main.swf")
_root.mc_mainloader.gotoAndPlay("fadeup");
}

Unfortunately it ignores the second line, which appears to be because the movie hasn't loaded by time it gets to the next line. As a work-around I made an interval to check for the movieclip width to be more than 0 and then run a function that chooses the desired frame, but this is very unreliable. Is there a simple way to load the clip and wait until it is finished, then immediately choose a frame on load?

Javascript :: Sequentially Load SWFs On A Timer Or Load Next Once One Is Finished?

Feb 19, 2010

I have a page that loads loads of swfs*. I'm loading in them all at the same time, Sequentially which is slowing down the intro animation. Is there a way to load swfs sequentially? Or if not load them on a timer (half a sec would do the trick I think)

*there lots of different dynamically generated Flex graphs so it's not possible to have them all in one.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load External Swf Plays Immediately?

Jun 30, 2009

I have looked around the web and everything I have seen and tried doesn't work. I am trying to load an external swf (5 of them, seperately though) wait for it to completely load then play it. Whats happening is as soon as I call Loader.load("myswf.swf") it begins to play immediately before its finished downloading. Heres the code..

Code:
var loader:Loader;
var clip:MovieClip;
var isLoaded:Boolean = false;

[Code].....

In the LoadSwf function there is a variable called tut that was created in frame 1, this just happens to be frame 2. I think everything else is self-explanatory.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading - Get Xml Data To Load On Frame One But Leave The .as Files To Load In Frame 2?

Jun 4, 2009

I have a question about loading external data. When I had all my actionscript export to frame one, it would slow down the preloader and not show up until it was far into the progress bar animation. So I moved everything to frame 2. The problem with that is now my menus which are populated from an xml file are not there when the site starts to play. How can I get my xml data to load on frame one, but leave the .as fils to load in frame 2?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Data Input To Choose MC Load

Jan 7, 2009

I need to have a data field that the user will enter in a zip code, hit submit, and have a specific movie clip load, based on their entry. There aren't different movie clips for every single zip, but there will be 20 or so different clips that would load, based on whether or not that zip falls within a certain group. For instance, if someone enters in a zip for Washington DC, I would need to load a clip that shows that general area ... DC, VA and MD.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Way To Wait For Data To Load?

Jun 4, 2009

In this app/website I'm building, I will be making many requests for data (via an external PHP file that queries a MySQL database). I'd like to build this request mechanism into its own class so I can reuse it.What's the best way to handle this? I'm thinking the following would work, but I'm a bit lost on the last step:1) From the main class, call a method in the query class (with whatever arguments apply, to specify what data I need etc).

2) Set up a listener in the main class and make the program enter a sort of "wait" state (possibly visually, if these requests wind up taking more than a half-second or so)3) From query class (upon receiving the data), dispatch event to let main class know it's received the data.4) Send data to main class. <---- How should this be achieved?For #4, should I create a custom event that dispatches with the data inside the event object for the main class to receive when it's notified? Will this be a problem if I have lots of different types of requests (will I need a new custom event for each type?)? Or is there some other sort of "return" I can/should use (similar to calling a function that returns a value)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloader Resuming - Load The Next Clip While The Current Clip Is Playing

Feb 13, 2009

I created a swf which loads multiple external swfs to 100% before playing. Which works fine. If I stop a clip while it's loading, I call loader.close() and I'm able to resume from where I left off at a later time. The problem I'm having is when I added the functionality to load the next clip while the current clip is playing. To be clear, I'll refer to the normal preloader as preloader, and the preloader which loads the next clip as pre-preloader. If the pre-preloader loads to 100%, everything is good. The next clip will play immediately without having to wait. If, however, the pre-preloader for the next clip is stopped at any point before 100%, the preloader will start loading at 0%.

With that being said, If I go back to the previous clip (which was previously already playing), the pre-preloader will pick back up where it left off, then if I go forward again, the preloader will pick up where IT left off.

Get A Movie Clip To Automatically Load Up Another External Clip After Playing An Embedded Flv?

May 24, 2010

I'm trying to get a movie clip to automatically load up another external clip, after playing an embedded flv.

This is what I've tried so far:

var holdFrame = setInterval( holdFrame, 5000);
gotoAndPlay(
_root.mc_holder.loadMovie("swf/library.swf"));
clearInterval (holdFrame);

Although it throws no errors, the setInterval is ignored and it just loads direct into the next mc clip.

Professional :: Dynamiclly Load Flv's And Play Frame By Frame

Dec 5, 2010

I'm building a flash application where the user can play multiple 30 sec .flv movies (one at a time) in slowmotion by pressing or holding down the left and right arrows keys.The user can hold/press "keypress right" to move to the next (key)frame and "keypress left" to move to the previous (key)frame in the .flv files.I have tested embeeding one .flv movie to the stage and it's working fine.But since I will be using many flv's I want to load the .flv's dynamiclly (on button clicks) using netstream or FLVPlayer. Would it be possible to step beetween keyframes in the same way if the .flv's are loaded dynamiclly? Or, must I embeed each .flv file into separate swf's and then dynamiclly load the swf's to my main stage?
