ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Movie Clips From Library?
Jan 30, 2009I'm new to AS but have some coding background (php, sql, vba) and some basic (non-AS) Flash skills.I want to create a bar chart a bit like this: http:[url].....Really would like some sample code if poss. This is my thinking:
1) Each section of the bar chart will be a movie clip, mc_2, mc_3 etc.
2) There will be an array with Qty, Type, Desc and Name of movie clip (e.g. mc_3).
3) There is a generic bar chart "block" movie clip in the library ("Block")
4) So I plan to loop through the array, attachMovie for each iteration, resize the Movie proportionate to Qty, and colour it by Type.
Problem is: (1) I don't know the right functions to use; (2) Are mc_2, mc_3 INSTANCES of my generic movieclip, "Block" ? (3) should the code sit on the timeline? (4) do i need an empty movie clip to attach the library item to?
Code:
Pseudo code:
n=length of array
for (var i:Number = 0; i < n; i++) {[code]....
The final thing would be a bit more complex with frames etc, but generating the movies would be a start.

View 6 RepliesActionScript 1/2 :: Scrolling And Movie Clips Loaded From The Library?
Aug 12, 2010Ok, I'm using actionscript 2.0, and I am trying to make a scrolling image gallery. I have a movie clip with three layers. the first contains a movie clip used as a scroll bar. The second is a mask used to hide the overflow content, and the third contains movie clip thumbnails. when I click one of the thumbnails, it loads a symbol containing a larger version of the picture over top of the thumbnails on the same layer. My problem is, the large image is added at the very top of the movie clip, even when it is scrolled out of sight. I want it to appear in sight, so the user doesn't have to scroll all the way back up to the top to see it. This is annoying and confusing. Is there a way to do this?
Here is the code I used to create the scroll effect (there is actually a whole lot more to the code but it is very long, so I am not adding it now. I will if it is needed though)(Oh, and there is no text involved in this. I just got this code off a tutorial and I haven't changed the variable names yet)
var scrollUpper:Number = 58; var scrollLower:Number = 309;
var textLower:Number = 60; var textUpper:Number = -179;
var scrollRange:Number = scrollLower - scrollUpper; var textRange:Number = textLower

View 10 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Random Display Of Movie Clips From Library?
Jan 5, 2010I'm trying to display random movie clips within the library (See attached fla)
each movie clip needs to display (fade in/fade out) and then proceed to display another movie clip from the library
You'll see how i have tried to do this is by creating a random number
Code:
var myImageSequence = 6;
var RandomLogo = Math.floor(Math.random()*myImageSequence)+1;
gotoAndStop(RandomLogo);
this code works, as it always selects a random frame and plays the movie clip within but then stops.
I need to then select another mc after this animation has finished and so on within a loop
ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Random Movie Clips From The Library?
Mar 19, 2009(****another title for this could be "how to create a MovieClip variable")
basically, im trying to load random movie clips from the library when i run the function "TRO1".. the logic behind what im trying to do is to to first create an array containing the class names (name given in the "linkage" option) of the movie clips in the library... then randomly select an item from that array... then bring it to the stage.. Here is the code I typed:
var characterArray:Array = ["truck", "car", "boat", "train", "helicopter"]
function TRO1(event:Event):void
{
[Code].....
When i try to run the function, i get the error message "Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor..."
I think the problem is that flash doesn't understand what "randomCharacter" is in the line "var character:MovieClip = new randomCharacter();"... I assume there is a proper way of writing the "randomCharacter" variable so that i can use it in the succeeding line...
ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Movie Clips In Library Onto Stage?

That I use to load SWF movies into a flash file. I do this because I am unable to compile clips and put them into my main movie library without breaking the actionscript and causing everything to go haywire.The problem with this is that it will only work so long as the swf movie file is within the vicinity of the SWF/Somefile.swf. I need to make a standalone SWF for my purposes.

Jun 26, 2009Currently i am experiencing a problem with pulling Movie Clips from a Library and Tweening it (adding) it to the stage at runtime and then quickly removing it (addChild()) and removeChild(); I have 6 Library items, which i am interested in using.
car_mc1
car_mc2
car_mc3[code].....
My Question:
1) The name is not genereted through the addChild metho, is there an temp Add solution or something that would add on the Fly?
2)The object when working as a single object, gets Tweened out to -200, i just want it to Tween out and get Removed form the stage?
3) The Movie Clip remains on the screen while another instance is brought on when using static naming convetion (this is just to say that i have tested it),I only want the object to be available for the Tween, nothing else
ActionScript 3.0 :: Replace Library Items?
Oct 10, 2011Don't know if I should place this here, but this is where I'm at the most and possibly this needs some coding.I'm working on an Android App and I've been constantly working on getting my content as small as possible, recently I found a way to make it even smaller with remaining quality. But now I have to manually change every file/import a new one and change the movieclips contents. This is A LOT of work, is there some way to batch replace a lot of files at once?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 - Attaching Movie Clips To Already Attached Movie Clips?
Jun 5, 2011As most of you don't know, I've been creating an rpg game. And, after several tries of art making, etc, I have finally moved back into coding the game. And now, I'm stuck on the equipment system idea. At first, I thought I would just place a bunch of goToAndStop's for each movie clip to go to a frame that has that certain armor piece. This was my first idea for an equipment system. However, after doing some research, and realizing how much lines of code could be saved, I started looking into simply adding and removing movie clips from the character as my new equipment system idea. Now.... on to the problem.
Basic want/ overall achievement wanted: Create an equipment system, which will basically attach movie clips (items) onto characters, which themselves will already be attached movie clips on the stage.
Problem: What is the exact code to do this? And Is there a better way to do this for an equipment system (a less laggy or more efficient way perhaps that I'm not seeing; Check the code below to get a better idea of what I'm talking about)?
Part of the code (or basic idea of code; see comments for extra details
code:
//Don't worry I have an OnEnterFrame function here;
//attachedObj= the character; figure= the MC name of the character;
attachedObj = attachMovie("figure", "figure"+1, 1);

Aug 18, 2005Here's what I'm trying to do (in example form): I have a movie clip called "dude". Dude is animated to walk around, then drop a cigar (all inside the movie clip). But the problem is, dude moves, so if you try and move dude as the cigar is dropping, the cigar moves with him. So what I want to do is create a new movie clip instance called "cigar" OUTSIDE of the movie clip dude right as he's dropping it, so that you can move him without moving the cigar. Get it? I've attached another helpful animation to explain.
What I have right now is, on the 13th frame of dude, a few lines of code that create and place an instance of cigar. In that frame I also have an invisible instance of cigar for me to duplicate. Inside of the cigar movie clip is the animation that makes it fall to the ground. I need to change that code so that the instance of cigar is created outside of the movie clip dude. Here's the code I have now (inside of dude, on frame 13):

Jul 19, 2006I've been trying to reproduce an animation effect I've seen on the Armani website, but I'm stuck trying to duplicate an empty movie clip with image loaded into it. The duplicates exist and I can move them, but they are invisible. Since the duplicates reside on depths above the intitial clip I'm confused about why they are invisible. The duplicates are scripted to follow behind the initial clip - each offset by 30 pixels (though I don't have that working perfectly).
