ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading A Movieclip Into The Main Movie From A Previously Loaded Movieclip

May 26, 2010

Im making a movie with a menu that loads movie clips according to which menu is selected simple enough. However, the newly loaded movie clip also needs to allow the user to load another movie into the main movie effectively swapping the first movie clip with the second. This needs to be done without using the main menu.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading A Movieclip Within A Main Movie?

Sep 2, 2010

I have created the gallery as its own movieclip and require it to open when the thumbnail images (within the main movie) are clicked on.The nature of the 'gallery' movieclip is such that on each keyframe there is a different picture and so when the thumbnails are clicked on i need the movieclip to open up within the main movie and jump to the frame that contains the large image of the thumbnail that has been clicked on.for instance to view the large version of the 3rd thumbnail the MC would need to jump to frame 3 when it has opened.

Flash :: Loading A SWF Dynamically Causes Previously Loaded SWFs To Misbehave

Mar 26, 2010

I have run into a very strange problem with Flash and Flex. It appears that under certain circumstances, movie clips from a SWF loaded at runtime (using Loader) cannot be instantiated if another SWF has been loaded in the mean time. Here is the complete code for a program that reproduces the error. It is compiled using mxmlc, via Ensemble Tofino:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader - Detects When A Movie Has Been Previously Loaded So That It Won't Show The Loader Bar Again?

Dec 12, 2006

I'm working on the following site http:[url]...I'm getting there however the preloader I'm using keeps appearing even when the movie in question has been cached. Is there a preloader solution out there that detects when a movie has been previously loaded so that it won't show the loader bar again. I find it annoying seeing the bar appear unneccessarily all the time.The preloader I'm using is basically this:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

Actionscript 3.0 :: Controlling Main Timeline From A Loaded MovieClip?

Mar 17, 2009

I am building a website in as3. As of now this is what I have. My main file has a button on it and builds a movieclip to hold loaded movieclips.

The file runs and loads about.swf into the main file. When the button is pressed it tells about.swf to play the exit animation.

All of that is working. What I want to happen now is once the exit animation finishes I want the about.swf file to tell the main timeline to load a new movie.

I can control loaded movieclips from the main timeline I just do not know how to control the main timeline from loaded movieclips.

ActionScript-3 :: Difference Between Playing Previously Created MovieClip And Event.ENTER_FRAME

Aug 1, 2011

I am creating game which involves some billiard-like balls to bounce on the screen. I created a MovieClip with only one frame which represented the ball, exported it to the class, extended it to my needs and animated it using Event.ENTER_FRAME. It works fine, but there is something that confuses me -- both, the stage and the ball have only one frame each, so I don't quite understand how Event.ENTER_FRAME works... I mean, if there are no keyframes, how is done the animation? If I used already animated MovieClip, I would have to add keyframes, right?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Swf Called Main.swf Which Has A Container Movieclip That Gets External Swf's Loaded Into It

Jul 28, 2004

I have one swf called main.swf which has a container movieclip that gets external swf's loaded into it.

my external swf is called hosting and it calls an array of data that is loaded into a movieclip that is duplicate for each element from the database. The elements from the database are as follows:

Business
Economy
Power
Standard

Each one of these has a button over it that when press loads information from the database into a movieclip that contains a textbox. My button code is: _root.movieclip.loadVariables("url to database");

This works flawlessly when I run the hosting.swf by itself, but when it is loaded into the contianer in the main.swf the buttons dont work. I believe that it is the _root in the button call that is causing this but I dont know how to fix it. I think the _root variable changes when hosting is loaded into the main.swf.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading MovieClip On Top Of Main Stage

Feb 4, 2009

I'm new to AS3, and am having issues loading external swf files so that they appear on top of entities on the main stage. My main stage is an interface, and as buttons are pressed, external swf files are loaded. Some parts of the external swf files are meant to display over the interface, but they are under it.

Here's my code:
var _dummy1:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(_dummy1);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("external.swf");
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
Button47.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,bClick3 );
function bClick3(event:MouseEvent):void {
_dummy1.unload();
_dummy1.load(url);

IDE :: Buttons In Movieclip Not Working In Main Movie?

Apr 23, 2010

I have a website where I have designed a scrolling thumbnail panel with nested buttons that are coded to load external swfs into a holder on the page.I am guessing that the problem must stem from the original file with the panel being 3 swfs deep in the final site. The panel and the buttons work fine when they are 1 or 2 swfs deep but I can't get them to work from the main navigation page. I have played with the _parent function and I can't seem to get it to work. I have also put the buttons on the main nav pages library as I read that that was necessary but again it didn't get it to work. Here is my code below.

Code:
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var mclL:Object = new Object();
mclL.onLoadProgress = function(target,loaded,total) {

ActionScript 2.0 :: External Swf - Movieclip Not Functioning In Main Movie

Oct 18, 2004

I have loaded an external swf into an empty movie clip in my main movie. Movie clip works fine when I test the external swf by itself. Once I test the main movie and load the ext. swf file the movie clip stops working.

This movie clip will act as a button. It is a small folder tab that will move up once clicked and move down when it is clicked again. Will changing the _root to _parent work?

AS for the movieclip:

onClipEvent (load) {
speed = _root.variSpeed;

I have a main timeline with a button. I need the action for this button to gotoAndStop to a frame within a movieclip, within another movieclip. I have tried on the main timeline setting the actions of the button to:

_root.clip1.clip2.gotoAndStop("frame1");

lastly:

If I double-click on the movie clip (clip1) and then double-click on the movie clip (clip2), I have several frames labeled "frame1", "frame2", etc.The button doesn't work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Movieclip To Main Movieclip

Mar 25, 2012

I have a scrollpane in my library.Inside a movieclip, I create an image gallery and add it to the scrollpane.I do this in this function.[code]Now everything works fine, and no problems occur.I do however get the runtime error TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at fl.containers::ScrollPane/endDrag()It doesnt seem to affect my file, but I am sure it would be better to try and get rid of it.I think it has something to do with adding my movieclip to the main movieclip, and maybe.I am not removing it when I add a different movieclip.Whenever I add a movieclip to the main one, I use container_mc.addChild(...);Does addChild check to see if a movieclip already exist, and remove it if it does? Or do I need to remove my clips beforehand?
