ActionScript 2.0 :: Path From Main Swf To External Swf?
Feb 10, 2007
I have my main swf that has a container called "mc_dropphotos" where I have:loadMovie("photo_scroll.swf",_root.mc_dropphotos);In the photo_scroll.swf there are movieclips that I want to get the x coordinate of and do something in the main swf by:if (mc_dropphotos.mcPhoto1._x < -4.15){etc.which is the path syntax I thought you use for checking properties from an external swf. I have tried _root.mc_dropphotos.mcPhoto1._x , _root.mcPhoto1._x, _root.mc_dropphotos.mcPhotos.mcPhoto1._x, c_dropphotos.mcPhotos.mcPhoto1._x and none of them work either.

I Have a flashmovie thats almost done and will soon hit the internet, but I want to add some animations into the website it�s two gears that I�m about to put at the bottom of the page and when a button releases in the main flashmovie the two bottom gears will turn a few frames and just stand still.These three movies are all separate (main movie, first gear and second gear).
It's a homepage designed in HTML and flash that has this "main flashmovie" in the middle of the screen, the size is about 1500(width)X800(height). And the gears is about 800wX200h placed at the left and right side bottom of the page. Dont worry the site is easy to apply to any screen resolution.I have been looking everywhere for any soul out there who suffering from the same problem but no success. Is it possible to script a button in the main movie to launch two separate movies in their own contents?

I have spent many frustrating hours trying to figure out why this is happening. It is totally broken. I need to use a motion path using 3d in a symbol. Because of the way the project is put together (for Flex) there are several FLAs that need to be converted to symbols.
So when I convert the FLA that contains a motion path with 3D, the object moves away from the path in the symbol (the 1st frame remains in place, but everything else is off the path), even though it remains correct in the main timeline.
And once I start editing the object in the symbol, the object returns to the path ok, as if it had been some strange display issue, but the 3D is all wrong - the vanishing point relative to the object has changed. The same thing happens whether I create the 3D path using "global" or "local" tool settings.

I spent my holyday in studing new Flash 9, very good, powerfull but I doesn't find anymore my root, in teory is transformed in stage.root but it doesn't work.I want to understand if I make a mistake in my code or in my approach.I make a simple example with a few object containers.In the firsts lines of the constructor of the mail class I create the style class named tf and then the interface class called interf.Here is my class
Code:
package test {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import test.tf;[code]....
how to get the tf1 Object that as to be in stage.root.mytf.tf1 as some documentation say? If you doesn't comment that line you have an error. Obviously you can carry with you the object because is a small object with a few nidification but It seems to me very very bad for performance and code.

I'm implementing a Flex application with several modules.I'm reusing the same component in all these modules.I was wondering if I'm correctly importing it in each mxml module definition: xmlns:hillelcoren="com.hillelcoren.components.*"Should I import it only once, in the main application mxml instead?

I have created a main "site.swf" file that loads a "default.swf" file into a container after a preloader. On this default.swf file I have buttons that needs to load new external SWF files in its place in the container. All of the external SWFs contain buttons and navigations that will also call up other external SWFs into this container. So, I would like to know how to program each button (some are movieclips as buttons) to unload itself and load the respective SWF into the container (eg. AboutUsButton to call up aboutus.swf into the container). I do not have a main navigation on the site.swf file bacause the navigation changes on each SWF that needs to be loaded into the container.

I am trying to get a nav button in one movie (main_nav.swf) to target a my main movie (index.swf) and load a sub nav movie (metals_subnav_infinite.swf) into it. The sub nav movie will do a similar task - loading a portfolio swf into main movie (index.swf). Here is the file breakdown of my working files:index.swf - main final movie which loads "main_nav_infinite3.swf" on startmain_nav_infinite3.swf - loads main nav "main_nav.swf" and scrolls it infinitely (infinite menu)main_nav.swf - main nav with buttons that trigger sub nav "metals_subnav_infinite.swf" to load into index.swfmetals_subnav_infinite.swf - loads sub nav "metals_subnav.swf" and scrolls it infinitelymetals_subnav.swf - sub nav with buttons that trigger "folio.swf" (have not created this file yet!) to load into "index.swf"The script I was focusing on is in main_nav.fla and it is:
metals_mc_bn.onRelease = function() {
reActivateMenu();
this.gotoAndStop(3);

I found the problem. I had my container as a guide. I took off the guide and it shows up in my server. But why did it show up on my local computer if it still was on guide then?I have external jpgs that are loading into a flash website. When I run it off my hard drive it works. But when I put it on my server the external jpgs are no longer loading. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong with my paths?

I want to:
1) Place symbols on the stage manually in loaded.fla
2) Exclude these symbols from the swf because they will already be in loading.swf
So I:
1) Created a component.fla
2) Created a "comp" symbol in the fla
3) Turned that symbol into a component via Component Definition
4) Exported the comp.swz into Configuration/Components/MyComps
5) Opened up loaded.fla
6) Pulled the comp component onto the stage
7) Went to file AS settings and added Configuration/Components/MyComps to the External Library Paths
8) Compiled loaded.swf and played it
BUT the swf includes the comp component on the stage...which is NOT what I wanted. I only want the swf to work and have a reference to comp when it it loaded into loading.swf.Why haven't the classes in comp been excluded?Obviously this is a workaround for runtime shared libraries, which is unpredictable, time-wasting and generally painful. Is there a better way to retain WYSIWYG and share symbols? I don't want to do dynamic placing.

I am having trouble loading an external swf on a server using the absolute path. This external swf uses webcam streams and is loaded in the original swf file using the URL request code. I can load other swfs but just not that one. I have set the permission of the external swf to allow write/read/execute
//Loads the augmented SWF into the main timeline.
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.reminisce.me/files/jz_AR.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader()

I have an external swf file that I am using for an image gallery utilizing XML.I have a main swf that loads the external swf. Everything works fine locally, however i get nothing when I put it on the server. I have been trying to find the answer and I think it has something to do with the path, its a guess really.So this is how I have it set up. On my main flash time line, I have an empty movie clip with an instance name of loader_mc. When a user clicks on the button for portfolio it stops on the portfolio keyframe and should call the external swf located in the folder Flash. This works when I test it locally, but does not work when I test on server. Here is my exampleThis is my actionscript.
Code:
stop();
_root.loader_mc.loadMovie("Flash/gallery.swf");

i was trying to load an dynamic swf by an external path using the addVariable of swfObject. But i seem to be lost when im already trying to call the path of the swf. on the loadMovie function, i noticed that "_level0.bg" which is a String and myRandom as Number is not possible to concatenate. how to be able to call this path properly so that i can load the swf?
Code:
_root.onLoad = function() {
var myRandom = Math.floor(Math.random() * _level0.totalPic) + 1;
_root.bg_mc.loadMovie("_level0.bg" + myRandom); // it should be like _level0.bg1;
}

I am trying to create a flash viewer, which will load various other flash movies. The viewer will be in the root directory, but the flash movies it will load are a few directories deep.
/flashViewer.swf
/myContent/someProgram/program.swf
/myContent/someProgram/audio/sound1.wav
It seems that when I load one of these movies into my viewer, the loaded movie is looking for the sounds in an audio folder in the root directory, and not relative to the swf I loaded. Is there a way to set this? I would rather not have to make the changes in each of my other movies to use the absolute path

I need to say I'm VERY aggravated right now at all of this because I know whats going on I imported a QT h.264 640X480 mov into flash. I've used both local files across the network and files on the live web server. 1. the exported SWF on the server want to use the skins. swf thats TWO folder levels higher then the output and the local MOV. there appears to be no way to edit this.I didn't export to here, I exported to a folder deeper down to hold everything. no idea how or why flash is reaching 2 levels up.
2. if I manually move the skin file up, then I get a sandbox secruity error with the hint that Security.loadPolicyFile("");

Alright, so I've tried quite a few things with no luck. I have a scrollbar that works in the swf fine, but when loaded into my mainmovie container I get this error...
Target not found: Target = "/scrolling text " Base = "_levelO.swf container"
Basically I understand this to mean that the externally loaded movie cannot find the instance name /scrolling text. The code is as follows that I have set to the scrollbar button in the externally loaded swf....
on (rollOver) {
tellTarget ("/scrollingtext") {
nextFrame();
} gotoAndStop("down1");
}
I tried changing the target to _root.scrollingtext with no luck. Also tried _parent.

the same class is passed to the mxmlc compiler in SWF library as a symbol linkage class and again in a source-path. But the compiler uses the definition from the source-path so creating new instance of that class won't create new instance of the library symbol. How do I tell the compiler to prefer the definition linked to the symbol (the one dfrom SWC)?
I have my design assets in an FLA file and they are linked to classes (e.g. [URL]. Then I export those assets to a SWC library and pass it to the compiler. Now when I create an instance of the class (new MyAsset();) it will be a new instance of the library object.
But there are other classes too in the source folder (e.g. "com.myproject.model.*" so I need to pass the source folder to the compiler too. And that is the problem, now the compiler will use the MyAsset.as definition from the source path, not from the SWC where it is assigned to the library object so if I create new instance of MyAsset now it won't duplicate the library object.

I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.

I am creating I guess what you could call a swf library. It's a bunch of different interactive swfs all packaged up into a main swf that I can embed on my page. Each swf contains flv's that play. They all work great in my main swf and individually, that's not my problem.Everything is working great but I have a menu that pops up to change between different episodes and it works great.BUTWhat I'm looking to do is when you click on the menu button and the menu pops up over the externally loaded swf, I want the externally loaded swf to pause. Then when you close the menu I want it to un pause. It looks really tacky when the menu pops up and the flv's in the externally loaded swfs keep running. I knew how to pause them in as2 but only from the swf they were actually in.
This is my code (this all works) I just can't figure out code to add that will pause everything when the menu pops up ...box is what I named an empty box on stagetop_btn is the button that launches the menu
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("NewHarbison2.swf");
myLoader.load(myURL);
