I would like to ask for...
mcname._width = 200;
mcname._height = ....;
I want the value of _height to vary to the _width value by the image(movie) ratio. if the image is 1000x500 ... So if I want to decrease its width down to 200 then its height must be 100 as well
I want to provide this script to resize many picture and want all them resized with the same Width.
I am new for Flash Action Script 2.0 .I have made one script to dynamically load the images depends on the data came from database.This images can be of any size in the directory.I want this images on perticular height and width.so i wrote like UserImage._xscale=35 and UserImage._yscale=47.but i do not get the image of that size.I tried to set _height and _width property the it is not displaying image.so what should i do to get the image of my size?
View 2 RepliesIs there a way to detect the _height and _width of a incoming image?
I'm going through a loop, duplicating movie clips with mask, loading an image, and squeezing it down to 100 x 100 for thumbnails. The client wants the thumbnails to be actual proportions but I used so many tweens and setup functions based on the 100 pixel width it's going to be a nightmare.
I have a horizontal line that is in a movie clip. To adjust the width of the line when I click a button I use
Code:
btn.onPress = function(){
line._width += 20;
}
This does change the width, but the line gets thicker (height is increasing) as the width increases. Why is this happening, and how can I keep it from happening? I want only the length of the line to change, not its thickness.
i know it's possible to check the _width and _height of a .FLV with the metadatainfo. BUT not every movie got this kind of info, how do i check this without the info or can i place a .FLV in his original size in the screen?
View 1 RepliesI'm having trouble getting the _width & _height of a jpeg loaded using loadMovie. I'm trying to reposition it (pseudo-registration point) for rotation in a container movie clip. If I use hard-coded numbers, it works fine. However, if I try to position it based on its _width and _height properties, it's no go... in fact, it doesn't even show up on stage.
View 7 RepliesBasically I've got a movie clip on the stage called loader_mc, I am loading a picture from the server into it with:loader_mc.loadMovie('http:[url]....');I am then trying to to take a snapshot of the image using:
dummyBMP = new flash.display.BitmapData(loader_mc._width, loader_mc._height);
dummyBMP.draw(loader_mc);
dummyBMP seems to be empty after this though, and I notice that loader_mc._width and loader_mc._height have a value of zero. The picture is visible on the stage despite this though.Anyone know where I'm going wrong?
This is probably just a brainfart but when I publish the code below, my hitTest is triggered by the entire movieclip from 0,0 to _width, _height and not by it�s content. The �fwa� movieclip contains some txt that I broke apart, and I only want the hitTest to run when the �mc� hits the txt within the �fwa� movieclip!

I have a movie clip that jumps around over the course of my movie using standard keyframe animation. At every keyframe, it calls a function that moves a dynamic text box on top of it, autosizes the text box, then alters the movie clip's _width and _height to fit that of the text box.
The problem is, while the resizing code works fine and the text always fits, the act of altering the _width and _height seems to cancel out the keyframed positioning. The movie clip changes size, but it's forever locked to the position of the first keyframe.

This is what i'm trying to do , get the Ratio 4:3 9:16 etc from an mp4 movie (h264) so when ill open it in fullscreen using a flash player / action script 3 it will still keep the ratio.
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a small docu where you have some control functions like you have in Windows Media Player or Winamp or...
So my problem is that I don't know how I can make the statusbar (a bar where you can see how far the movie is).
I just have a bar that begins with a width of 0 and I want to make a itterative function that just does a _width++ every second/24fps
The question: Is there a function, like the Thread.sleep() method in Java, that let's you wait for a certain amount of milliseconds? Or do I have to put on every frame a call for my ++ function.
this is my code:

as you see the container._height is bigger than the maxh (maximum height) but the _width is just fine... how do i fix this problem??
i try to charge a XML images inside a movieclip, but i need this movie clip maintain the aspect ratio. This movie clip gonna change with the size of the explorer, but when this change my image is going stretch. I used this code doesn't work but i try:

How would I go about creating a gallery that displays images in a grid format that are both portrait and landscape without any cropping or spacing. I cant figure how to go about scripting the arrangement/scaling functions?
View 1 RepliesI want to load it always to fill the whole screen but to retain the aspect ratio. So far I am able to stretch it to 100% of the screen but the aspect ratio is not preserved. The instance name of the mc in which I load the background image is "back".

View 3 RepliesMy html has 3 parts which I want to appear vertically in the page: header swf footerThe header is 100px high and 100% of width. The footer is 25px high and 100% of width.
I want my swf to take up the remaining vertical space on the page while maintaining its aspect ration of 4:3. I'd also like automatic redistribution of space to occur whenever the page is resized.
I have attempted to put the swf into the page using dreamweaver's built in methodolgy cs4's method when creating a corresponding html page swfobject 2My swf ends up with the dimensions of the page (without regard to the header and footer). The result usually involves the other content being off screen and unwanted vertical scrollbars. Often, regardless of my choice of showall or exactfit, i get distorted aspect ratio.
Is there an approved or standard way to achieve automatic resizing of a swf based on the remaining available unused height in a page?
When I choose the default theme (Spark Default) in a Flex 4 app, I can merely change the chromeColor value and the theme will effectively change the base color of the theme for me. Are there any special tricks to creating a new theme that uses this same concept? What if the new theme is a more graphical theme? I'd like to offer a number of base themes for my application, each theme having it's own set of color variants.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a game in cs5. I figured, I would try to make it look a bit better and throw in some drop shadows. Unfortunately, I was using Flash player 6. Normally, this isn't really a problem and I would just blow it over, But due to the fact flash player 6, dosen't support filters, I needed to use flash player 8. So I checked it out, threw on some test shadows, and boom, looked a ton nicer. Then I tired it out. You see, When the "Player" Walk over a specific item, the item gets a hitTest with the player and does some actions. For whatever reason hitTest, dosen't work in Flash Player 8.
Here is an example code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(_root.player.head.hitTest(this)){
_root.player.gotoAndPlay("Assault")
unloadMovie(this);
}}
It's still in as2, in both versions, but why does flash player 6 work, and not flash player 8?
Why do you use height for Stage, but _height for the others? ( the same as width and others )

My problem is that I need to get the autosized height instead of the regular height of the text box before autosize. In a parent movie clip I have the following code to do some custom scrolling:

Attached is a FLA in which a target onPress gets a bullet hole attached to it and folds down. The fall down is made across five key-frames. In each frame the height (H) of the GIF, representing the folding target reduces this way:
frame 1: H=156
frame 5: H=147
frame 3: H=117
frame 4: H=73
frame 5: H=21
instead trace(this._height) returns like this (and every time slightly different):
from frame 1: this._height=156
from frame 5: this._height=147
from frame 3: this._height=117
from frame 4: this._height=99
from frame 5: this._height=99
the problem seems to be caused by the cide line which attaches the bullet hole:
this.attachMovie("bullet_hole_metal","bh"+i,i);
When this is commented out this._height traces correctly.

View 1 RepliesI have a movie that I am loading text into. The textbox is set so the text flows downward. In an ifStatement further down, I am trying to see how tall that movie is(depending on how much text goes into it) to see if I should attach a scrollbar for the movie. If I trace the hight, it tell me that the movie is 200 high, which is the size that I created the textfield in that movie. But when the text is in it, it is actually much taller. How can I get an accurate reading of how tall it is, after the text is loaded into it?

The width of each thumb is needed so that I can space them out evenly with like 20 pixels between each.Initially photoArray has the path to each jpg, then it is overwritten with the movie clip when they load. If anyone knows why these lines dont work or knows a more efficient manner to load thumbnail jpgs that would be cool.I 've also tried getProperty() with no avail. PEACE - I'M OUT

I was disappointed to find that I could not use the _width property of a tweened movieclip instance to know how large the mc is at a given time.
Am I just not getting something??
A breakpoint in the onEnterFrame() function shows that _width is always the LARGEST width the movieclip ever has -- not its CURRENT width. In my case the mc is being made larger and larger, using a tween made in the authoring environment. The clip starts out tiny and ends up 400 pixels wide, but the _width property is 400 the entire time!
Check it out. I am creating an XML gallery. I am able to load in the gallery info from the XML just fine. The preloader works just fine. And I can set my _x and my _y just fine. BUT.... when I attempt to set my movie clip (that acts as the pic holder) to a width or height, the MC never shows up!
