ActionScript 2.0 :: Positioning MCs And Textfields?
May 1, 2007
Here's my code:
Code:
for (var i = 0; i<nTotalPics; i++) {
main.createEmptyMovieClip( "container"+i, i );
var container:MovieClip = main["container"+i];
container.createEmptyMovieClip( "pic"+i, i );
[code]....
First, if I add "trace (pic._name);" inside the onLoadInit function it outputs "pic3,pic2,pic1,pic0". Why does it show up in reverse order of the for-loop?
Second, is the "pic:MovieClip" in "mclListener.onLoadInit = function(pic:MovieClip)" pointing to the "pic" in "mcl.loadClip( astrImages[i], pic );"? If not, what is it pointing to? If it is, can I add another variable after "pic" so that I can pass it inside the onLoadInit function? Ultimately what I would like to do is create a textfield under each pic.

I need to create the attached jpg, but i'm not sure of the best way to tackle it. The news posts are loaded from XML and will vary in height so they need to somehow be sorted so that if one is going to come off the page, then it's put into the next page - where the user will click the scroll buttons to view.
1/ Load article from XML
2/ Create a postMC_0 and add article bits to it (date, title, body)
3/ Record height
4/ Create a newsColumn_0 and add postMC_0 to it
Then a loop:
5/ Load next article
6/ Create a postMC_1 and add article bits to it
7/ If difference between postMC_0 height and newsColumn_0 height is greater than the height of postMC_1, then add postMC_1 to newsColumn_0.
8/ If not, then create newsColumn_1 and add postMC_1 to it.
9/ Loop back to 5 (increasing the numbers each time, so postMC_2, etc) Then just make the scroll buttons function according to how many columns have been created..

This is the swf I'm trying to load. These actions load and position a small simple swf just fine and the trace in the onLoadProgress function indicates that it loads completely but I can't see it. What am I doing wrong?

I built an app in flash where you can rotate objects and save positions and rotation to xml.... that xml then feeds html to produce a layout that is then rendered the a pdf It seems that every time it goes to the html, a rotated object in positioned a little to the lower right then the position in flash.
I know the rotation in css in different, but I think if I can find the true top left of the rotated object in flash and pass that it will solve the issue.
I tried this
newx = imageHolder.parent.localToGlobal(new Point(imageHolder.x,0)).x;
newy = imageHolder.parent.localToGlobal(new Point(0,imageHolder.y)).y;
also this imageHolder.parent.globalToLocal(imageHolder.localToGlobal(imageHolder.getBounds(imageHolder).topLeft));
neither work. Is there something else?

I have been working on this to no avail. I would like to individually position different movie clips unto my flash site, yet it will only let me position one. Well.. more specifically it will perfectly position rock_mc, but transition_mc wont appear centered until I resize the screen manually. Is there any way I can fix this to have it appear in position from the beggining?
Code:
function init()
{

I'm trying to make some mcs be displayed from alpha 0 to 100, one by one in the stage and in random positions. I've managed to make appear it randomly from alpha 0 to 100 with this code:
Code:
mcs = new Array("mc0", "mc1", "mc2", "mc3", "mc4", "mc5");
mc0._visible = mc1._visible = mc2._visible = mc3._visible =mc4._visible =mc5._visible = false;[code]....
The strange thing is that only some mcs are positioned randomly and others stay in the same position.

how would you go about positioning a MC in the top right hand corner - a few pixels. And How to get it to stay even on Resize? to get it to stay in that corner so it moves with the screen resize?

I always run into the same bug concerning the x and y positioning of a Movie clip. When I try to get the X and Y values of a movie clip inside another movie clip, they aren't the same values (since I guess every MC has it's own x,y grid starting at point 0,0 where that MC is placed on the work area). How do I get the x and y values of a MC inside another MC when I want those values to be the same as the _root's x and y values? In other words: The movie clip that is inside the other one is moving on a simple guide path. I want to create "lasers" (or whatever) at its own coordinates every few seconds depending on where that moving MC is at when the shooting counter is up.

I am writing a loop and want to position 25 boxes in a square. I can make 5 boxes appear in a line, but can't make 25 boxes appear in a square without writing 5 seperate loops (e.g. j, k, l, m, etc.). This seems long-handed, can I shorten the code? Here is the code I have used so far:

how to make it so that it is always centered horizontally in the middle of the browser window. I am having issues making it so that it is centered vertically between 150pixels from the top to the bottom. This will make it so that if the window is small the swf will be right at y=150 but if the window is large it will have equal spacing between the top(150) and the bottom of the window.

We have a flash application that developed using Adobe Flash CS5 - AS3 that will display an article with photo, however, the article has a particular layout to have a "float left" effect of the photo and articles should wrap around it and adjust. I do NOT know how to this on flash but what I did is just to create two dynamic text and do the layout but sometimes since this is a dynamic content feed, the article body doesn't look good at all since I am only doing substring on the whole content and display just to cater the layout.

I have a movieclip with the mesurements of a rectangle. When the application is launched the movieclip is being scaled before placed on the stage as following.
menu.width = 400; menu.scaleY = menu.scaleX;
this is a smaller size than the original. the position of the movieclip at this moment is in the middle on the x and top of the stage on the y. when i click iti would like to do a tween with tweenlite wich scales it to its original(bigger) width and height and position it in the center of the stage on x and y.
the problem is when i position it with tweenlite, it gets done according to its old scale and not according to its new(bigger) scale so the movieclip isnt placed in the exact center of the stage.
I tried to compensate by adding a bigger number on the position so it gets positioned in the right way. But when i click it again i would like it to rescale to its beginning scale and position so it would be very messy to compensate again. Is there any easier way to do this kind of tween?

You know how you can choose where the center of a symbol is when you make it? Top right, center, bottom left, etc. Well, I'm editing a symbol and the graphics have gone pretty far off center, so I'm wondering if there's a way to make it recenter itself without recreating the symbol. If not, what's the best alternative, such as a way to move around the point?

I am designing a website which will have four hover buttons in the corners and flash content in the middle:
I am using the following code for the buttons which works fine:
HTML:
div.container { position:relative; }
img.positioned { position:absolute; height:63px; width:122px; }
img#topleft { top:0; left:0; }
[Code]...
But I am having difficulty positioning the flash content.
What would be the correct html and css code to position the 4 buttons with a hover effect and the flash content.

Been working w/ Flash for some time now, but mainly on the timeline and only a bit with AS. I am working w/ a tutorial:
[URL]
This particular portion of code is supposed to center the movieClip to the stage, but it is not working for me
target_mc._x = (Stage.width - target_mc._width)/2;
target_mc._y = (Stage.height - target_mc._height)/2;
I added some animation to it as well here:
var xScaleT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_xscale", Elastic.easeOut, 50, 100, 3, true);
var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_yscale", Elastic.easeOut, 50, 100, 3, true);
And added this part just in case the tween was affecting it:
var xPosT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_x", 0, (Stage.width - target_mc._width)/2, 3, true);
var yPosT:Tween = new Tween(movieClip, "_y", 0, (Stage.height - target_mc._height)/2, 3, true);
But it only fixes the centering on the y-axis.
