View 3 RepliesI'm trying to target a .swf that I loaded into a movie clip (mc_container) but it seems like I'm missing something. Can you take a look and see where I went wrong?
Code:
mc_container.loadMovie("mc_photoSwap.swf");
//homepage Animation Swap Images
function photoSwapAni(){
switch(random(3)){
[Code]...
Also I see I'm going to have an issue with the random part because it could call the same animation twice or more times in a row. Should I ad some sort of if statement or is there a better way to do this random part of the code?
How come i handle the movieclip which i loaded into target movielip?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to build a menu, that loads external swf to target movie clip, in the code below it works if I remove the line target removeChild, but then if a press the other button, just put it on top, so my actual problem is that if I don't have anything loaded in target, this code doesn't work because it can remove child?
menu.btn_avanti.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, goseccion);
menu.btn_professors.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, gofotos);
function goseccion(Event:MouseEvent):void{
var main:Loader = new Loader();
main.load(new URLRequest("seccion_basica.swf"));
target.removeChildAt(0);

I've a main movie with a container movieclip to load an external swf file. That's working fine but I want to control the movieclips of externally loaded movie. I tried the below method but not work out.
Script on the main movie
_root.holder.loadMovie ("1.swf", mytarget); // This is working fine
_root.holder.mytarget.<movieclipname of the externally loaded movie>.onRelease= function (){
// Do something.
}
But the above script not worked out.
I am loading an external swf, but when the swf is loaded, its height is correct, but it's width is not. Why is this?
"Block9.swf" is a simple MovieClip with a width of 100 and a height of 120.
But when the swf is loaded, its width output is 169. But the height is correct at 120.
Code:
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(swfLoader);
var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Block9.swf");

If you load an external swf and after it is totally loaded give it as to change size properties. the file jumps from his size exactly to the pretended.

Im having problems with assessing the size of an image after having loaded it into a movieclip using MovieClipLoader.Im trying to use the onLoadComplete-method to determine when the image is completely downloaded into the imageholder-mc, but Im just getting the original size of the mc, not the image's.[code]
View 3 RepliesI wonder if any of you can point me in the right direction. In my stage I have a movieclip where I want to load several images with different sizes. This mc called "container" adds the loader to the stage so I'm asking for the loader width and height once has finished loading and then passing these to the width and height of the mc container so it resizes accordingly. But...it doesn't work. Here is my code:

I have successfully loaded an external swf file into my own one. now what i want is to change the size of the loaded file.
the loaded file is an image and its height:500 and width:500 but what i want is to resize it to 200x200
How can i do that.
here is my code to load external image
var peelawayimage = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("peelawayimage", 7);
var mcImage = new MovieClipLoader();
mcImage.loadClip(_root.video_image, peelawayimage);
Im having problems with assessing the size of an image after having loaded it into a movieclip using MovieClipLoader.
Im trying to use the onLoadComplete-method to determine when the image is completely downloaded into the imageholder-mc, but Im just getting the original size of the mc, not the image's. I using the MovieClipLoader incorrectly somehow?
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
}
know how I can resize the stage to match the size of an external graphic/movieclip which is loaded into an empty movieclip,
View 3 RepliesI've got some swf's that I want to be able to load in to an mc and for the swf's to fit to the size of the mc. This works with jpeg's but not swf's, maybe to do with the way they've been set up, but I can't change these swf sizes.The code I have, (that's from another thread) will load a jpeg and make this fit, but not an swf is:

I'm trying to load a SWF movie into a target movieclip called blankmc. The SWF movie is loaded from an absolute URL (eg. [URL]/img/20042005113934movie3.swf ) My Loading Progress code fails to detect the SWF file size. However the same code works perfectly for a JPG! Essentially the .getBytesLoaded() and .getBytesTotal fail to work. Why is this and how can I get it to work for loading SWFs?

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.
I need to load a external file as movieclip and play according to the mouse movements. External swf consit of panning sequence in which i have to stop in 122 frame when my mouse is between 250 and 1000 x position.
But my problem is the loaded movieClip plays fine in first time when i return to the position movieclip does not play good. animation becomes jerky.
here is my code
ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;
[Code]....
the loaded swf file is about 2 mb and consist of diferent flv embede in timeline
I'm loading an external movieclip in a site page, but when I click another page it won't fade away. I mean, no matter which link I click, the external mc will be in every page.
View 5 RepliesI have a problem - when I load a swf and I want to be able to add event listeners to propertys on it I use the code
ActionScript Code:
var headerMovie = MovieClip(loader.content);
Which works fine but what I've have created now is a class to load external SWF's and add them saving me to repeat that code, which works fine for loading the swf but as for the part where I get it to convert to MovieClip (which is what I assume that bit of code does) I'm out of Idea's.here is the class so far - the error it gives is that it cannot acces the property mloader, I've even declared it outside of the function but to no avail.
ActionScript Code:
package {
public class PreLoaderSwf3 extends MovieClip {

qi have a movieclip which is added to the stage:
var profileholder:profileHolder=new profileHolder ;
inside of profileholder is another movieclip(infoBtn) that acts as a button.when the mouse is over profileholder i want to do something with infoBtn like:
//profOver is the over state of profileholder
function profOver(e:Event) {
e.target.infoBtn.alpha=1;
}
this doesn't work and brings up this error:ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property infoBtn not found on flash.display.Loader and there is no default value.
at main_fla::MainTimeline/profOver()
i also tried:
function profOver(e:Event) {
var item:profileHolder=e.target as profileHolder;
item.infoBtn.alpha=1;
}
and get this error:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I have one swf called main.swf which has a container movieclip that gets external swf's loaded into it.
my external swf is called hosting and it calls an array of data that is loaded into a movieclip that is duplicate for each element from the database. The elements from the database are as follows:
Business
Economy
Power
Standard
Each one of these has a button over it that when press loads information from the database into a movieclip that contains a textbox. My button code is: _root.movieclip.loadVariables("url to database");
This works flawlessly when I run the hosting.swf by itself, but when it is loaded into the contianer in the main.swf the buttons dont work. I believe that it is the _root in the button call that is causing this but I dont know how to fix it. I think the _root variable changes when hosting is loaded into the main.swf.
detect current frame number of a movie clip inside a loaded external swf?
its like this, i have a main swf, lets call it "loader_swf", inside the loader_swf i create a movie clip called "holder_mc" which loads an external swf, lets call it "ex_swf". The ex_swf has a movie clip in frame 2 which is the main animation of ex_swf. Is it possible to get the current frame number of the movie clip holding the animation on frame 2? the only thing i know is to get the current frame of main timeline of ex_swf.
i just recently started programming in flash and so far I have learned a lot, but new questions keep coming up
My problem is that I want to load an external swf in an empty movieclip and then manipulate this loaded swf from my main movie. For example tell it to go to a certain frame. Is such a thing possible?
Does anyone know how I can resize the stage to match the size of an external graphic/movieclip which is loaded into an empty movieclip
View 3 RepliesShort version: I'm trying to load an external .swf from a URL and add event handlers to the movie clips (or it's movie clips sub-MCs) on its stage. I can't find a THING online on how to do this.Details:I've been tasked by my employer to build a simple control interface in flash, with just a few buttons to do things like display some info or images or maybe an associated MP3. I've written little test apps to do all of these individual things & managed to fake my way through.But the sticking point is that I'm now trying to place all the UI controls into an external .swf, which I then load into the canvas by a URL. The goal is to be able to load it into a variable named, say, 'private _ui:MovieClip' and then add event handlers to mivie clips within that bynamelike:_ui.someButton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_ UP,handlerFunction1);_ui.controlStrip.someButton2.addEventListener(Mous eEvent.MOUSE_UP,handlerFunction2);The goal is that if we want to swap out the UI for a particular client, we just export a new .swf with all the correctly named MC instances & use the new URL to load the UI.I seem to be able to load the .swf OK and trace the movie clips "Main Timeline" like so:
_ui2.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMP LETE , uiDidLoad);
function uiDidLoad(evt:Event){
trace("UI2 LOADED");

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.
