ActionScript 2.0 :: Transitions Loading External Files?
Dec 31, 2004
I found the tutorial about how to do this and it works to a certain degree. i have the main choices which then lead to a submenu which is an external swf, then the buttons located in these submenus load other swf's as content. for one section i want to experiment with transitions. i cant get the outro portion to work. the swf loads the way it supposed to but when i load the next swf the other one simply disappears. theres 2 empty movieclips in which the submenu's and content that get load into .. for the buttons its _root.whole.buttons and _root.whole.main for the content.

[URL] for smooth transitions between externally loaded swf's. I've search for such an in depth tutorial all over the net and was unable to find any until I came across yours. I need to modify the code however to suit the need of the current site I am working on. My site contains background images ans a button loads an external swf in an empty movie clip ontop of these images. The cliemt would like the end user to have the option of collapsing the box that is laoded to allow the full backgroung image to be seen. I am having troubles modifying the script. Any suggestions? Here is the link to the website asit currently exists. [URL] The "x" that appears in the top right hand corner needs to collapse the box, preferribly with the same animation sequence.

Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code].....
The loaded swf has a stop() an intro animation and on the last frame have. dispatchEvent(new Event("removeMe", true));

I have a problem with buttons and transitions.I have two buttons onstage (they're inside a movie clip) inside the movie, on the button one I have the following code:
on (release) {
if (_root.externaltwo._currentframe == 7) {
_root.externaltwo.gotoAndPlay(8);[code]....
I have similar code on button two and this does indeed make the buttons move into place as required. My problem is this, I need to load in external swf files into an empty movie clip on the main stage called container. These External SWF files have transitions and this is where my problem is. If I place a normal button on the stage it works but not if the button is inside a movie clip and has actions applied as above. The code next is what I have believe should also be placed on the button to make swf transition one load in.
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "externalone";[code].....
Obviously a similar code would be placed on button two so the transitions could take place.I am uploading my file so you can see exactly what I am talking about. Also in this file will be a folder containg a version that works but without the buttons moving up and down which is the effect I wish to have

I've been using Claudio's tutorial titled "Preloader & Transitions for Dynamic Files" and everything is working okay except for one minor detail. First off, what i am doing is loading external SWF headers on my site. Each of these headers are animated. Once the Transition Shutter Mask closes and loads the next header, it starts playing the external header animation immediately rather than waiting for the Transition Shutter Mask to fully open and then start playing the animation.
So as a result, users are missing the beginning parts of each animation. Also, I noticed that after I uploaded it to test the preloading, I missed more of the Header Animations due to the loading time difference. This means that I can not just insert the exact amount of blank frames, in which the shutter takes to close, to the beginning of each header animation.

[URL]..the opening squence i suppose it's all just movie tweens between files, but how is this thing done, when you click a button, the middle screen/part of the site, has a transition effect, loads, and there is a new page! i know how to do the transitions, and the loading bar, but how do i exactly tell my button, where to load an external movie file!...
basically, i want it when somone goes to the site, the while site opens, there are transition effects, and three different movies open at three different spots on the site...just like it happens at www.void.com when you enter their site, they got the main window, and the botton right and left windows!

I spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla. In my main.fla, I have a code which loads the other two files. If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

Lets say I have subgallery.swf file that loads jpeg images. And I have gallery.swf file that loads subgallery.swf.The jpeg images and both swf files are in the same folder.When I test gallery.swf it loads subgallery.swf but subgallery.swf doesn't load images. When testing subgallery.swf alone, it loads jpeg files.Is there any limitation or setting preventing external swfs loading other content?

I'm working on a simple example of loading external swf files with some ActionScript.I've placed an instance of List Component and gave it an instance name of loadList. Using Component Inspector, I assigned data for 4 external files as below:
Next, I've added a UILoader component (instance name - loadWindow). The code that is supposed to load the content into UILoader is this:
loadList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, selectItem);function selectItem[code]..........

I'm having trouble importing an external .swf into my .fla. file. The only AS that is working gor me is-
loadMovie("panoSceneNoMarkers.swf", _root);
However, once the swf shows, it replaces the background interface. I assume I have to add a _level into the code but how?

I've been making a game using Adobe Flash CS3 and actionscript 2.0 on my desktop and it was working fine. I tried to transfer the folder containing the flash file and all of the .as files to my laptop via a jump drive and now, when I run the the swf, it doesn't appear to be loading any of my .as files. All of the files are still located in the same folder as my flash files and it still compiles and runs fine on my desktop.

It's been a while since I've posted here so I apologies if it's in the wrong place.
My ProblemI have a large (30mb) swf file created in InDesign. It's an interactive PDF. Now rather then allowing people to view it straight away and having to wait elements to load we'd like to pre-load it somehow.
I was wondering how I might go about building a preloader for this SWF file. I have limited knowledge of action script, and most of that was as2 rather then 3.

stop();
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("news.txt");

i know how to load in external .as files so I can update easily. but why do you still have to re-publish the swf in order for the new .as file 2 take effect.is there any way that you can make a .as file be read in & so that it updates the .swf file, much like the way loading an xml or .txt file does?

I'm making an image catalogue for a client, and for reasons unknown to me my client insisted that the images be stored as binary data in a database. ( i know, i know....but they wouldnt' listen) Anywho, the format of these images is windows bitmap (.BMP). I've just found out that they want to be able to manipulate these images in flash. So i need to have actionscrip open these images.Since the images are stored in the db they have to be accessed via a php file like this: get_image.php?id=imageid.
This works fine for displaying the images in a browser as i just put the string inside an img tag so: <img src="get_image.php?id=someid"/>The thing is, I can't seem to get flash 8 to load these images via loadmovie. I've been able to load jpeg and gif files no problem, but can't seem to get these bmps to work. Adding to misery is that because there are going to be in the neighbourhood of 40,000 images, i dont' want to actually have the images saved locally.this is what i have, it works fine for jpegs and gifs:this.createEmptyMovieClip("pic", 1);pic.loadMovie("image1.gif");

I am trying to load an external SWF into my project, I am pretty sure that my code is fine but when I try to display the SWF all I get is an instance of my StartPage movie clip. The code for the loader does not mention or even any relation to this movieclip! I have the loader in a class file for a separate movieclip, but no matter where I put the code I get the same result. I cannot understand why this is happening!I tried loading the same external SWF into a different project, and it worked fine.Is this a common problem? I haven't managed to find anyone online with the same problem.
