ActionScript 2.0 :: Make Everything Align To The Bottom Of The .swf When It Scales?
May 13, 2010
I'm using this code:
Code:
Stage.align = "BC";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
var $stage:Object = new Object();[code].........
To make everything align to the bottom of the .swf when it scales, as most of my MC's won't need to scale. The bottom part stays pretty much on it, imagine a desk, with lots of stuff on it, then as you resize, the background extends, which is why it aligns bottom.There is then a bar at the top and a bar at the bottom. the bottom bar is fine, it is naturally aligned to the bottom, so it doesn't need to be told to do anything.The top bar is giving me some grief though. I've tried all sorts of code to try and make it sit up the top, but it just doesn't want to.
I'm having a small problem with aligning movieclips. I have 2 movieclips.
For examples sake let's call them
black_box red_box
I need red_box to align to the bottom left of black_box. Now the code I'm using works when black_box lays on the 0 axis for both x and y. But since the positioning of these movieclips are dynamic I'm having problems.
I'm almost sure I just need to add in the current x and y values into the equation but I simply can't figure it out
Any way to bottom-left align components? An <HBox .../> nested in a <Canvas .../> doesn't work because the elements in the HBox are top-aligned instead of bottom aligned.
For example, I'd like my components to be aligned like this: +-------------+ <-- container | components | | | V | | V +--+ | | +-+ | | | | +-+ +--+ | +-------------+
The following code blocks create a movie clip 20px high and align it to the bottom of the stage (I add 100px to stageHeight because by default it traces 300 instead of 400). Regardless, both code blocks work when tested in Flash.In HTML however, only the first code block works.The second code block produces a blank HTML page. The second block is so that I can change the footer's height and still have it sit at the bottom of the stage...Considering "footerY" traces 380px, I have no idea how the two code blocks are so different that one HTML page makes the clip visible and the other doesn't.
Code: var footerHeight:uint = 20; // var footerY:uint = (stage.stageHeight + 100) - footerHeight; // trace(footerY);
I am trying to make it so that when the window is resized, a color bar resized to be the width of the stage and the moves to the bottom of the window. The width resize works fine, but item disappears out of view when i include the new y location. I've set up a trace and everything seems to be fine. What am i doing wrong?
Ive got my flash movie set to 100% width & height, while the stage is set to no scale. Is it possible for me to align an mc to the bottom regardless their window size? Just to clarify if firefox is larger than the stage, can i align this mc ( like a footer ) to the bottom of the ussers screen.
I have my movie embedded with 100% width 100% height in order to take up the entire browser window. Now what I would like is a MC to automatically align itself so that it stays at the bottom edge of the browser and adjusts itself whenever the browser window is resized.
Basically I have a textfield that will have a fixed width and wrap the text, which will be passed to it dynamically. Since the text will be dynamic,there's no guarantee of how many lines the text will take up.Directly underneath that textfield i have another text field that will also take dynamic text. Think of it as a title and a subtitle.so I'll have something like this:
Code: var title:TextField = new TextField(); var subtitle:TextField = new TextField(); title.wordWrap = true;
[code]....
and probably others that I'm forgetting. Getting it to work with a single line of text isn't really a problem, but as soon as the text begins to wrap to multiple lines, everything i've tried seems to fall apart.
I have a dynamic text box for multiple questions in a text. We would like to get the text box to align bottom (so the text is always at the bottom of the box no matter how much text is in the varriable). Is there a way to do this?
My movie clip is not bottom aligned when window is resized. I noticed that everything works when I delete the line which tells the stage to not scale. PHP Code: //Stage.scaleMode = "noscale"; But I need to keep that line because I don't want my swf to scale. My question is how can I resolve the issue with the bottom align of my mc? I already have addListener but seems it does not work when the "noscale" line presents.
I am still very young to the fullscreen flash phase.. thats why I have a quick question:How do I align my elements (movieclips) to follow the bottom or the right/left side of the website?
i made a function for replacing a text letter by letter. You've probably seen this effect of putting in place of a text a random one, with the length of the new text and then replacing the random text, letter by letter with the new one. It worked fine but I had to do some adjustments, because I needed to vertically align the text to the bottom, and I had the newline character in the text which gave me some issues with the aligning. Since I did this adjustments, string.length returns undefined even if trace(string) shows the correct text in the output window. On the other hand length(string) gives me the right answer. I also use the charAt function which also returns undefined, even if the trace function shows the correct text.
I'm planning to provide the visitors of my website an option to toggle between their normal window and an optional fullscreen window. I just don't know how to align a simple movieclip to the left bottom of my fullscreen window (margin 20px). I can't use static parameters because it has to be adjusted to everyone's personal screen resolution. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I have an image that doesn't fill the <mx:Image> tag because it's not the exact dimensions (it is too short) and I have maintainAspectRatio set to true:
The <mx:Image> tag has a fixed width and height (it's 100% of the tile size--this is in an ItemRenderer). How do I get the image to sit on the bottom of the <mx:Image> tag?
I'm trying to make a Dynamic TextField and set align to 'Justify'.I tried use align propriety from TextFormat but doesnt work.Until now, it only works with Static Texts, that I know.

I've added a UIScrollBar on a text. What I need is to make the actual bar to be on bottom on default. (for chat text purposes.. new messages will be added on bot)
I'm creating a menu for a Flash project: the subMenu shows up below the Menu Button -- I would like for it to show up above the Menu Button when the Menu Button is clicked. Tried everything I could think of - here's the code:
_global.style.setStyle("themeColor", "haloBlue"); import mx.controls.Menu; var cmMainMenu:Menu = Menu.createMenu();
I got it from a code that make ball falling from top to bottom and i analysis that is this code that make it work. I wanted to change the code to make float from bottom to top.
I have been trying to make four buttons on the bottom of the kirupa xml slideshow. I am trying to write a function that states on release advance to slide #? I was trying to use a similar function to:
There are four images that are dynamically linked. The function is not recognizing that the image is p=1. Do I need to do something like total-3 or something.
