ActionScript 2.0 :: Setting External Swf As Background?
Dec 5, 2007
i want to add a external swf to be a background of my swf.
then i want to be able to add a external swf over the top as well.
so 2 layers.
1 swf playing in the back and then another external swf over the top.
because as i have it now i cant add anything new to my old swf! and i need to keep it the same.
so i just want to add a new scroller at the bottom is all, over the old swf movie
can i do this with load movie?

Is there a way to set up a background image (repeating or non-repeating) that the stage area floats over. When I use file > publish settings > HTML > publish - It creates the HTML document but any area outside the stage is colored with the default stage color- Can this be set up in Flash or changed in HTML?

I'm building my first Flash website in a 1280x800 px resolution, fixed top-centered layout. I have a 1920x1080 px bitmap set as my background. I did it in 1920x1080 px size, because I want the browser to display it (the background) acording to the user's monitor resolution. The main content though buttons, images, animations, etc - are fixed (1280x800 px centered). So, how do I do this? I've been searching the web, but I only find instructions for liquid layout layouts and such, and I don't want liquid, just the background to adapt to the target monitor size.I use Flash CS5.5 (11.5.0)

I am trying to control some of the global variables in my script through an external text file.I have a variable called "_global.scrollOrNot", which determines whether I want flash to use the text window with a scroll-bar or the one without a scroll-bar. I am trying to control that through an external text-file called "ScrollCommand.txt". Here is my code:
the external txt states:
&sb1WindowScroll=yes
frame1:
_global.scrollOrNot;
[code]....
this is were I have a problem. It will always choose "MCtextFeldSB1noscroll". I have tested the whole thing with other variables, which were not changed by any LoadVars function and it works just fine then. As soon as I change the variable using the LoadVars function it will not work any more.

In my timeline I have different link hot spots, so that each product will link to a separate web page (externally).I don't think this is going to work:When I upload the Flash file to a server to test, the links show me the 'pointing finger' icon, but when clicked upon it does not even open another web page attempting to follow the link. - that tells me this doesn't work!I need to get this correct for when the final goes live. What am I missing? Should I try the extension? (product01.asp)

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 am loading the SWF just fine, but I want the SWF to fit the root stage exactly. What happens instead is that the external SWF seems to include white space from around itself.
For example, the author-set width of the Tanks game (an example file I was using) is 550px, but when I set the width of loadEvent.currentTarget.content.width to 550px, the game is resized to maybe 350px width. I have to set the value of loadEvent.currentTarget.content.width to something like 640 in order to get the game itself to make full use of those 550 pixels.
Code:
package {
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;

I have CS4 with AS3. I hard-coded values for cWidth and cHeight instead of getting them from flashvars because I am just testing in the IDE right now. Normally I would get those vars from flashvars.

I need to preload an external swf in my file - but I don't want a preloader bar or count or anything - I simply want it to perform in the background - and if done proceed to a certain frame. I've been googling preloaders for a bit now and they all have the bars and percentage count - and I couldn't seem to customize it.

So I have a video that is actually the background of the website. The video is resizing proportionally when user resizes the browser. The AS3 code is written on base of FLV component. The sound is also external mp3 imported with AS3 code. These are the facts and it works.Now the problem: The preloader calculates only the bytes of the movie including mp3, but doesn't calculate the bytes of external FLV, which makes the the movie and the mp3 play before the FLV video starts playing. It makes a gap and it don't look good at all.

As you can see, I have an external swf file that loads into a container clip. When a user clicks on the next project button, or any other category, another image gallery starts loading. My question is, is there anyway to load the other galleries in the background while users browse through the loaded ones?

Just to get some professional opinions, is it possible to load in an external SWF and set that SWF's background to transparent?
This question has nothing to do with embedding the SWF in an HTML page. I already know that setting the WMODE to transparent will create a SWF with a transparent background in a browser.

I have a main fla file, that preloads and loads three external SWF's just perfectly. The three SWF's are simple flip book animations. This is the site: [URL]. This is the only actionscript in the main.fla file.
Code:
var j = 0;
myarray = [];
cliparray = [];
createEmptyMovieClip("paper", -1);
_global.preloaderf = function(klip) {

The problem is, that the first movie is really jumpy, the second is a little better and the third is the best. There's three buttons designated to each movie. My question is, why are the movies jumpy? I'm assuming it's because when one is visible, the other two in the background are still running and taking up the speed. How can I make the background SWF's go into a stop state, or whatever you might call it.

Is there a way to tell flash to preload a number of swfs in the background (meaning no visual cue to the end user that this is happening), while the current movie is playing?The idea is when the user clicks on a button to move to another area, that swf has already been preloaded in to memory or cache and loads instantly.

I have a gallery with a Next/Previous button and individual frames that contain a "loadMovie" function. When the user clicks next or previous the movie jumps to a new frame and loads an external swf/w a preloader into a container. The way I have it , the movie has to load each swf one at a time. Is there a way to have the movie loading the other swfs in the background, so the user doesnt have to ait for each swf to load?
