ActionScript 2.0 :: Moviecliploader Document Size External Swf?
Feb 9, 2009
ActionScript Code:
var container:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(this);
mcLoader.loadClip("crossball.swf", container);
function onLoadInit(mc:MovieClip) {
trace(container._width);
trace(container._height);
}
This always traces the width/height of the content of the external crossball.swf file, not its stage dimensions. So let's say crossball.swf has a document size of 200 by 200 pixels and in it is a shape of 115 by 30 it will trace the last as the width/height of 'container'. Is there any way to get the stage dimensions of an externally loaded swf through moviecliploader?

i have some problems with image loading. Just tried loadMovie but that doesn't worked for such a 'big' (over 100kb) image. The image loading worked perfectly until i changed the size of the containing movieclip next line.That was the point when i recognized that Flash is just stupid and needs a listener for that kind of thing.So i googled and found something like that (i made a function out of it and adjusted some things):
Code: Select allfunction loadPicture(datei:String, ziel:MovieClip, props:Array){
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader= new MovieClipLoader();
var preload:Object = new Object();
[code].....

Code:
var MCL = new MovieClipLoader();
MCL.loadClip("IMAGE.jpg", mc_ImageHolder);
MCL.onLoadComplete = function (targetMC) { // perhaps 'targetMC' should be used?
trace (mc_ImageHolder._width); // outputs mc's original size, not image's size
}

I'm in a hurry and need big help quick
1 - I'm using AS2 and know my way around it well
2 - I'm loading an external SWF using MovieclipLoader
3 - The external SWF has a MP3 file in it's library (exported for actionscript) and is attached to a Sound Object.
4 - Running the SWF by itself, everything is fine, but once it's loaded in my main movie, it won't play, no sound,

I need to do is load an external swf into a movieclip and make sure it stays within a certain size.
1. How do I make it a set size? Instead of it inheriting the root timeline height/widht. ie: my main movie is 900 x 900 the external swf is 700 x 500 and there are mouse moves that rely on the 700 x 500 boundaries.
2. How do I make this: loadMovie("external.swf", "load_mc"); utilize MovieClipLoader?

I am using MovieClipLoader to load a swf. The external swf has about 12 images on it that just show up one after another. But only the first frame displays.
My code:
[AS]
var empty_mc:MovieClip;
var mclListener:Object = new Object();
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

I am using the MovieClipLoader class to externally load a .swf file with a preloader. The problem is that my .swf starts playnig behind the preloader, before it is completely loaded...
How can I make it paly only after it is 100% loaded?
Here is what I have so far:
Code:
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var loadHandler:Object = new Object();
myGlobalSound = new Sound(this);

I'm trying to use the MovieClipLoader class to load external swfs into my main movie. A problem occurs when the external swf relies on or loads other external files. The external swf acts as if it's running in the same directory as the main swf and expects files to be located relative to that.
For example:
main_movie/main.swf
other_path/external.swf
[Code]......
This seems to be similar to having the base parameter set improperly in the html, but I haven't been able to find a way to set this when loading an swf dynamically with MovieClipLoader.

When I load an external SWF into my UI SWF using MovieClipLoader.loadClip(), does the external SWF get cached?
Therefore, if the user tries to reload a SWF that had been previously loaded, the SWF will load from the local HDD instead of the website, right?
In my case, caching of content is important to reduce bandwidth usage.

I"m having a tiny problem with unloading an external swf using the MovieClipLoader object. This is what I"m doing:
Code:
if (mcLoader.unloadClip(container)) {
trace(container.testVar) // shows testVar
}
button.clickHandler = function () {
trace(container.testVar) // says undefined when clicked
}
So what's happening is right after I call unloadClip it's still loaded however if I click the button at some point after unloadClip is called it shows that is has been unloaded. So obviously there's a little bit of a delay while things are being unloaded. My question is, does anyone know of a way to detect when the clip is unloaded like with an event listener or something? I want to be able to load up another swf after one is unloaded for the level maps for my game I'm working on.

Is there a way to set the size of the fla or swf document via actionscript? The stage size and the document size seem to be two different things. What I what to do is get the users monitor size then adjust my document size to match than and arrange my layout to fill the aspect ratio of their screen. Then use the stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL; to fill the window.

I have a swf that loads external images from an xml feed (using moviecliploader) and then rotates through these images every n seconds. This works fine in ie and it loads the images and scrolls through them. However in Firefox sometimes it loads the image and sometimes it doesn't! its like a lucky dip haha Is there any link that you know of to any information on this bug/issue with firefox that might help me resolve this? Found something that might be causing the problem, if Firefox cannot find the image within a certain time it just gives up... is this true?

Does anyone know a way to dinamically modify a flash document's size at runtime?I have a drop down of which the item can have any number of pixels in height so it might be taller than the flash document. In this case i would need to resize the flash document and also resize the it in html so it won't be cut off.

Is there a way wherein I can enlarge the document property size and force the contents to align to the center? I'm new, so I probably started backwards. I made my file with animation just how I wanted it, then realized it would look better if I put a frame around it. But, when I enlarge the document properties to accommodate the frame, all content, including associated animations, are top flush left. I need them middle center.

I'm trying to set up a website that uses the MovieClipLoader class to load external images & swfs. The loader is working but I can't seem to get the preloader text to work, ie the onLoadProgress. The Percent text just has jibberish when I test the movie. Could some tell me what I'm doing wrong. Attached is the test file that I'm working on

I have a flash file that a customer has sent me that needs changing. (It is a flash website header with links to the site pages and a logo above. I have deleted the logo above) One of the problems is the size. I would like to half the size of the document as there is a lot of white space in the top half where I am going to add a static logo to a webpage (with these flash site links below). When I open Flash CS4 and click Modify > Document..., I can change the height dimensions but the white background changes but the whole of the flash movie is now under the document.
How can I change the possition of either the rest of the document or the background of the document to fit under my movie so that the whole document displays as a flash movie at the correct size? Another problem that I am having is changing the links in the template to the page names that I am using on the site. I don't seem to be able to even find the buttons to make the changes. What ever I do to view them I can't 'see' them when scrolling the time line but when I export or preview the movie all the elements are there.

With AS1/2 there was no way(that I know of) to determine the document size at runtime. You had to hard code in some vars. Although Stage.width and Stage.height would be the same as the document size when scaleMode is not 'noScale', if scaleMode is indeed 'noScale' then Stage.height and Stage.width represent the SWF size. This behavior appears the same in AS3, but I was wondering if there's any additions that make it possible?

I am trying to create a basic flash script to load an external swf file using MovieClipLoader class. Here's my code:
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
myMCL.loadClip("splash.swf",5);
I simply copied it from a tutorial. Unfortunately it throws an error message as follows:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MovieClipLoader
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method.
PS: I have CS3 professional in my machine but I am following Flash 8 book. But my CS3 application supports AS1, 2 and 3.
