ActionScript 2.0 :: LoadMovie Jpg Expands Over Instance Size?
May 19, 2010
I have loaded jpegs into instances on my stage using loadMovie()See here:However the pictures (which have a greater height than the instance) in the thumbnail buttons extrude further than the height of the targeted instance (because the jpeg size is larger) but I want it to crop to the size of the targeted instance.Is it normal for the jpeg to fill the stage from the position of your instance, independent of the instance size it is targeted for?

why this isn't working?
Code:
changeWidth (quiz_holder, _width + 200, mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeInOut);
function changeWidth(movName, moveTo, moveType){[code].....
What I want to happen is that the quiz_holder box expands sideways, then when this is finished, it expands lengthways. At the moment it's just getting to the point where it's expanded sideways and then stops?

trying to tween an animation that expands as the browser window expands. To clarify this, imagine a box that simply expands to fill the dimensions of the stage and stops there. The issue is when the stage dimensions change, how can I adjust it so that the box equally expands to those stage dimensions...

I have this problem: in my swf on frame 100 is a code:
Code:
loadMovie("second.swf", _root.clip1);
I have mc with isntance name: clip1 The movie second.swf loads into the position of clip1 but it's originally very big and I want it to make it smaller so it will fit to my site, if possible i would also like it not to be resizeable (so when someone will have smaller browser window it wouldnt move)

When I try to use loadMovie, it will not load to an instance (unless it's something that's in the same directory). I figured this was some sort of security thing, but I was able to load the movie into _root just fine.

I have loaded a .swf into my main timeline, but it's quite large. I am trying to get it to fit in the constraints of my current movie. I have read that by putting it into a movie clip, it will constrain to that dimension. How do I accomplish this?

I am using loadMovie to load an image that a user has uploaded. If I have the loadMovie target as a movie clip of size 300x300 and the user loads an image of size 600x600 it does not restrict and scale that image down to fit within the 300x300 box.
Is there anyway to restrict this? Like setting the properties of the uploaded image to fit within the movieclip?
Another issue is that I am using the following code to edit the size of the preview pane (according to a users input):
ActionScript Code:
setProperty(_root.dimension_preview, _width, Number(_global.dimension_width));
setProperty(_root.dimension_preview, _height, Number(_global.dimension_height));
Now when I load an image into this it actually magnifies it by the amount the user entered, is there anyway to prevent it doing this?
If it is easier, I can upload the bits and pieces.

We have used loadMovie to load some small SWF files on a home page we have made. The swf files are in different sizes and we need to be able to set the size. How do we do this? We hoped the problem was solved with the following code, but this code only sets the size of the variable "minRamme", the contents are still to big, resulting in only a part of the swf file being visible. Anyway the following code ignored the onRelease command, so the swf file started playing at once. How come?
knapp.onRelease = Function(); {
minRamme = this.createEmptyMovieClip("clip",0);
minRamme.loadMovie("ann kristin.swf");
[Code]....

I am loading swf A into a mc within swf B.
loadMovie(dir/A.swf,target_mc);
How do I constrain the width of A so it is its' normal size? It wants to span the width of swf B. I tried adding "_width=470" but my syntax is not right and/or working. I am using Pro 8.

I have some external .swf's of different dimensions. I'd like to know if there is a way to load an external swf to the stage and force it to fit to 100% the size of the stage it is loading into?Also, is there a way to handle the antialiasing of the scaled clip to ensure smoothness / clarity. The swf's contain both vector and jpg's and when scaled down appear jaggy.

I'm a second day action script student with a specific goal. I would like a button to load a movie clip to a specific place. I have a button with the "LoadMovie" script and it loads the movie onto level 1, but I don't know how to give whatever it loads an instance name so that I can direct it specifically where to load.

We've all seen them before. Those obtrusive ads that expand their size when your mouse rolls over them. How are they done? I'm assuming it's more than actionscript code, and something is done with javascript or something.

I'm having is keeping the other mc boxes a set distance away on both sides at all times while one box shrinks and another expands.I've gotten it to stay away in a drag example, but I can't get it to constantly stay away while the animation is expanding/ shrinking.On a less important note, I've tried scaling (expanding/shrinking) the boxes using actionscript via the x/yscale properties, but I noticed it scales uniformly, I think the word is. To understand what I need, transform a box, circle, whatever and then hold ALT + transform it. It expands only on that one particular point.

i have to make a banner that expands over the website it sits in to reveal more content. i've never made one before so i was wondering a few things.
1) is there anything special i'd have to do to the flash to make it work?
2) it looks like the banner sits in a css layer that's over top the rest of the site, is that correct? [URL]

I am trying to create a nav system that expands to show sub-sections when the user rolls over main section buttons.Let me describe exactly (as best I can) how this would work:A vertical list of 5 menu buttons is stacked and distributed at equal distances.The user clicks a button (lets say Button 2) and Buttons 3, 4, 5 slide down to reveal the sub-nav below Button 2. When the user clicks or rolls back to any of the original 5 buttons, that subnav closes up.Does anyone know of a good tutorial for this type of nav or have anything I might be able to dissect and work from?

Does creating a new instance of an Object that uses an identical name to an older instance, delete the previous instance? Or should the original instance be deleted first? The code uses a ridiculous amount of XML vars. Isn't it less memory intensive to parse the XML and save the properties to an Object, and then delete the XML Object, rather than keep the XML Object around and reference it's child nodes directly? Is it better form to break up a huge XML file (>600lines/3200vars) into smaller chunks?

does anyone know of a way to have a text box expand to fit it's contents?
the reason I ask is that I want to use a scollbar with blur and ease, to scroll a mc containing some buttons etc., and a dynamic .txt fed, css styled text-box (with an embedded font).... what a mouth full.
the text in the box will be constantly growing, it's a last-date-first news area for a band..

I have a library object (SomethingMC) which extends a custom class (Something). Something, in turn, extends MovieClip.If adding SomethingMC to the stage within Flash CS3 IDE, is it possible for it's super class (Something) to assign an instance name from a class constant (Something.THE_CONSTANT)?
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code].....
The above does not work. It throws Error #2078: The name property of a Timeline-placed object cannot be modified. if the instance is assigned a name in the IDE, and it just doesn't work if no name is assigned in the IDE.

I have a BUNCH of bumpers of four types bounceUp, bounceDown, bounceLeft, bounceRight. during a collision which you hit determines the bounce so they always do the same thing so here's my question.....can i just name every bounceUp instance the same thing and then just add that one instance name to the list the collision detector checks?
i just dont wanna go through and name a hundred each of bounceUp s and bounceDown s individually as the potential for screaming increases proportionally.......
