ActionScript 2.0 :: Target A Movie Calling In ASP To An Empty Movieclip?
Dec 6, 2002
I came across a problem last week, I haven't looked at again. But I thought I would post the question here first before messing around with the code to save myself some heartache.
Is it possible to target a movie calling in ASP to an empty movieclip. When I was playing around with it at the weekend, it didn't seem to work it just hung when the movie tried to return the ASP.
Is this because when using ASP + Flash, the movie needs to be at level0?

I recently used the loadMovie action to load a .swf file to a target in the movie which it was being called from. Then I tried calling a picture to another target in the movie, but it did not load the picture as intended. I read about it on my book, but it didn't seem to work. Is there anyways on calling a picture into a target in the movie without placing the picture inside an swf file?

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?

I'm trying to somehow target a MC being loaded into an empty container MC. I've tried everything I could think of.
Basically, I'm making a movie editor. Right now clips are added to the stage on initial load, then when they are clicked on they are added to the "reel" and they can be previewed in the order that they are added. Now, I'm trying to get it so that when they are on the "reel" they can be click and dragged and rearranged.
Here's how the clips are added to the stage in a function called loadClips():
ActionScript Code:
addChild(clip1);
clip1.name = "1";
Here's how they are being added to the "reel" in addClips():
ActionScript Code:
if (currentTarget.name == "1")
{
clipCopy = new Clip1();
[Code]....
Now, I just want the clips that are on the reel to be click and drag-able (along the X axis but I'll worry about that later). I realize now they're all being added as clipCopy. That's going to be an issue huh? Is there a way that I can target the container and make that mobile?

I've looked through similar question on this site and can't find a solution, so here is my problem: I have a save function that saves some data.This function is in 1 movie clip in another movie clip. After the save I want to gotoAndStop(1) of the main time line not the current nested one. Below is the code:

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 am loading an external swf into an empty movie clip by use of a button.The movieclip is a sort of menu that begins with an animation of the menu opening, there are multiple different movieclips I am using with this format.What I am trying to accomplish is this.When another button is pressed, I want the movieclip (regardless of which one is loaded) to either:Go to a specific frame and play a closing animation within the movieclip, BEFORE a new movieclip is loaded. OR reverse the animation BEFORE loading new movieclip.Since there are 4 or 5 buttons all loading different clips, I need all the buttons to work this way regardless of which movieclip is loaded.

What I'd like to do is have a checkbox, that when it is checked it loads a movie into an empty movie clip, and when it is unchecked, it loads a different movie into the empty movie clip.Also if possible I'd like to find a way to output to a variable whether the same checkbox is checked or not. And send the info from the variable in an email.

trouble getting a movie to load in an empty movie clip. I am hoping I'm missing something simple.I have a button with the instance name SPS_btn on a layer I've called buttons.Below the button layer i've got a layer called movie clips that contains an emptymovie clip called mainStage_mc.I want to load a .swf into into mainStage_mc. both the buttons and their actions occur on the first frame.I have used this code but it not working.
on (release) {loadMovie (new002.swf, mainStage_mc);
I just get a blue area but the movie does not load. I can run the movie fun locally by clicking on new002.swf file.i also tried the behaviors panel, which produces this code but it also doesn't work:
on (release) {loadMovie ("new002.swf",mainStage_mc);
//load Movie Behavior
if(this.mainStage_mc == Number(this.mainStage_mc)){[code]........
for some reason it will load if i use loadMovieNum () but the registration point is in the top right corner and i don't want that.What's the best way to debug this?When i use test movie the output window dosen't show an error but something's wrong.how can I test if is a path problem? A problem with the loaded movie or a problem with something else? the movie new002.swf is 393KB. I tired making a smaller 2kbmovie using the code above and it wouldn't load either.

creating an empty movie clip 'container' and within this clip is a movie clip 'box1' and a duplicate 'box2' offset on the x axis by 650.
Here is what I have so far
this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.container.attachMovie("box","box1",this.getNe xtHighestDepth(),{_x:0, _y:250});

I tried searching for an answer to this on the forums and it seems you can't duplicate a movieclip that has a dynamically loaded jpg in it, I mean you just get a duplicate empty movieclip?
What I want to do is have 3 copies of a pic, each tinted a little differently, and have them converge and reveal the "composite" of this pic. Do I then have to use loadMovie 3 times?

I'm making a new as3 file, and there I made an animation, like an intro for my website, in a movie clip. But what I want is, when this animation or this movie clip ends, automatically it charges another swf with my website, without having to press any button. I read some tutorials on internet that I can make this, creating a new empty movie clip, and then writing some code, but it didn't work me.

I'm filling arrays from a XML. These arrays have dynamic textFields inside them, and these textFields are childs of a movieclip.
I tween this movieclip, therefore making the array of textFields animate on the stage one by one. There are two sources of XML, one from an actual site, and another from a XML stored in the hdd. First i fill the arrays of textFields, and then animate the movieclip. I do this for the first one, then animate it, do it again for the 2nd one, animate it, again for the 1st one, animate it, so on so on.
myTween = new Tween(mc,"x",None.easeNone,sizeOfStage,0 - mc.width,mcSpeedAuto,true);
my tween ends at 0 - mc.width, the problem is, if i tween first the
"bigger" XML, when the next one which is smaller gets tweened, there's loads of empty space before it tweens the big one again (tweening whitespace?).
myTween.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, onFinish);
onFinish i clear all the arrays (otherwise the tweening of the 2nd one would still have information of the 1st one e.g: 1st has 25 fields, second has 10, 1st shows it's 25 fields, 2nd shows 10, and the 15 that were left from from the 1st one) and call the tween on the 2nd one. I thought that by doing this i'd be clearing all that white space too, apparently not. I think the mc.width just keeps the "bigger" value and always tweens with that, taking longer to end in the 2nd case. I've tried setting the mc.width as the sum of textfield width's everytime i fill the arrays, but this hasn't worked either
