ActionScript 2.0 :: Remove Accsess To Root In Loaded Swf?

Oct 17, 2007

I am forced to develop in AS2 for Flash Player 6 with dial-up speeds in mind (client imposed limitations - dark scary limitations *shudders*).The client requires a swf to load into a flash application dynamically.I am worried about this 'cos there are a number of _root objects, movieclips, initiated classes and variables at the _root level.I don't want the client to be able to load in the external swf with code referencing the _root that could potentially interfere with my _root items (potentially exploding my universe!).Is there a way to change the scope of _root and _level0 for the target mc the swf is loaded into?Can I simply disable _root and _level0 for this clip?I would prefer a non-class method to achieve this if possible as I am loading all class scripts at frame 2 and all shared library elements, xml and the offending swf in frame 1 - all for accurate preloading purposes (that whole dial-up thing again ....)

Actionscript 3 :: Position Loaded Object Based On Root Stage Instead Of MC That Is Loaded From Root

Mar 22, 2010

I have a root stage, and a MC that is called from the root stage.Now from that MC, i will called in another MC2, and I wanted to placed the MC in the center of the stage. The reason I could not use normal ADDED_TO_STAGE at MC and define the center is because MC is not place in the exact position of the root stage (as in x, y=0). So if I would target MC2 at MC stage center, it would not be the exact center of the root stage/screen.How can I called the root stage properties rather than adding MC2 into the stage?

Professional :: Target Root From A Loaded Swf?

Feb 5, 2010

I have a swf called anim1.swf acting as a preloder and loading anim2.swf. anim1.swf is attached to a document class called Racine.as. Once anim2.swf is loaded, how can I target the root of anim2.swf?
 
For example, anim2.swf contains 2 clips called clip1 and clip2. clip1 contains a child called clip1_1. How can I access clip2 from within clip1_1 by using an absolute way (I don't want to use the parent property)?

N.B : a way would be to have a document class attached to anim2.swf, but here there is none.

Flex :: Accessing Root Of Loaded Swf?

Mar 4, 2012

I have a SWf application built in flex 4. One part of the application relies on accessing a public variable ("step1") set at the application root, and is accessed with

var app:Object = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication;
trace("step one is "+app.step1);

This, while not optimal, has worked fine. Now, hoever, I need to load this entire application into another application, and I can't figure out how to access my step1 variable any longer.I have been loading the swf into the new parent application like so:

public var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
public var pizzaContainer:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
private var myUrl:URLRequest = new URLRequest("chickensoup.swf");

ActionScript 2.0 :: Tell An Externally Loaded Swf What Its Root Is?

Nov 24, 2009


Is it possible to tell an externally loaded swf what its root is?
These swf's I want to load in:

main.swf --> manager/g1/viewer.swf
In the main.swf I want to tell the viewer.swf:
your root = ../manager/g1/

So the viewer.swf can read the external xml and images from its own root. (../manager/g1/)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Root Property When Swf's Are Loaded In Other Swf's

Mar 25, 2011

Ive a quick question on using root property when swf's are loaded in other swf's. Is it safe/wise to reference MovieClip(this.root) in packages/classes if the swf will be loaded and placed inside another swf? I read once that root will always refer to maintimeline, and all objects have the same root. So...will the root change in some way if a preloader loads the main swf?

Dec 12, 2009

I'm loading a lightbox as an image gallery, but I'm working on changing it to full flash. My site is structured with external swfs. I ran into a barrier, because I'll need to load the images (and reference the stage size) in the root timeline, but I don't know how. MovieClip(root) only references the smaller loaded swf's main timeline.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove The Previous Loaded .swf Before The Next One Is Loaded?

Feb 15, 2011

I'm loading an external .swf files for my site.

ActionScript Code:
function whattoload( eye:Number){

This works perfect for loading the said .swf and displaying it on my flash program. However I have a next button which When clicked I want it to increment so that It picks a new swift from the array.

ActionScript Code:
var swiftI:Number = 0;
var maxI:Number = 3;[code]...........

This also works well for my desired effects. However I need to remove the previous loaded .swf before the next one is loaded. How do I do this?When I try to use removeChild(ld); It doesn't work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Root And Document Class For Child SWF Loaded By Parent SWF?

Feb 12, 2011

I'm using a PreLoader as a parent SWF that loads the actual website as a child SWF. In the website SWF, the child SWF, will MovieClip(root) still work and refer to it's own root, or the PreLoader's root? And would I still access the websitite's document class (the child's document class), through MovieClip(root)? What if both files have a document class?So my main question is how do document classes and MovieClip(root) behave in the scenario when you have:

Parent SWF - document class, MovieClip(root)
|
Child SWF (loaded by parent) - document class, MovieClip(root)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove .flv From Externally Loaded .swf?

Aug 7, 2009

With the assistance of a very kind member of this forum, I have got as far as getting an .FLV to load into my API via its own .SWF.

[URL]

click on "Animalia - Verse from the Zoo" to load the VideoPlayer .swf which contains the .FLV

I will add more functionality when I've solved this. Now that I have a Video Player which closes, the next set of hurdles to overcome are these:

Click "Close" with the .FLV playing and the sound keeps playing because the .FLV is still playing. Click "Close" with the .FLV paused and when you call the player back, it plays from the same spot. So, my tiny brain says it's an "add/removeChild" issue. Obviously when happy user clicks "Close" and then re-loads by clicking "Animalia", happy user wants the video to play from scratch. That's what I want, anyway. Not from where it left off after clicking "Close". I've made several attempts at adding a "remove FLV" object to the function and Event Dispatch method, but what I did is wrong because the code I put in removed the .FLV permanently and when you call the player back by clicking on "Animalia", the .FLV does not play at all. I'm going round in circles looking for the correct NetStream/removeChild/unload.nsplay/etc/etc .. AS3 coding and where to put it.

My .FLV video load object on "NewPlayer.swf" is:

var myVideo:Video = new Video(360, 264);
addChild(myVideo);
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();

[Code].....

My questions is:- What is the correct coding to get the VideoPlayer .swf to unload its .FLV completely, SO THAT when a user clicks "Close". Either with or without the .FLV playing, everything closes completely and when re-loaded, the video plays from scratch?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove MovieClip With External SWF Loaded

Jun 27, 2011

I have 4 empty movieclips called holderMC1/2/3/4 on 4 frames of the main timeline. Each movieclip loads in an external swf with this code:
var swfLoader4:Loader = new Loader();
holderMC4.addChild(swfLoader4);
var bgURL4:URLRequest = new URLRequest("F1_h.swf");
swfLoader4.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadProdComplete4);
swfLoader4.load(bgURL4);
function loadProdComplete4(e:Event):void {
trace("file loaded4");
}
I have 4 buttons which on click goes to 4 frame labels on the main timeline corresponding with the 4 movieclips. Very simple - works fine - except the swfs don't unload properly, so the video in the external swfs keeps playing in the background when a new swf has been loaded.

var sourceVar_ProductsPopUps:String;
