Jan 12, 2012
I cant figure out how to unload a movie clip. I thought i knew how, but its not working and i've tried everything i can think of.I'm loading an external swf like this:[code]This works fine. It loads an external swf that plays a youtube video. However, whenever i click on my navigation buttons to go to another page (basically another movieclip in teh _root level, it does not unload the youtube player and it keeps playing. Further more, if i go back to that page, the youtube player loads again and starts repeating itself.I thought by adding the following code to all my navigational buttons, the youtube player would unload, but it doesn't:[code]

I am targeting a a movie clip. The problem is that all the syntax I have found for targetting clips looks like this: _root.sample_mc.sample2.mc. etc. The problem is, my target clip is in an swf that I've loaded into a container clip from my main timeline. So, essentially, I have a home.swf that loads menu.swf into a container called 'location'. In menu.swf, I have an MC called center, which contains the MC I am targetting called 'target'.

I have xml which is loaded in a movie clip but i can't seem to be able to unload that movie clip when i need to. I tried everything and the code seems right. I'm guessing it's because of some kinda path issue. Maybe someone else might see something i'm missing.
This is the code i am using to load the xml in the movie clip:
Code:
var r = _root;
r.clipArr = new Array();
r.menuXml = new XML();

Here is the file that i am working on. Just download it from my server and take a look:

how to load an external SWF in an empty movie clip in AS3?
View 1 Replies
Jan 7, 2011
I have an AS3 project (publishing to FP10) where I load a custom made window from the main movie. The custom made window is saved in the Library and has a close button (called exitinteraction_btn).
I manage to load the window from the main movie with the following:
var WinA = new windowa(); addChild(WinA); var myTween:Tween = new Tween(WinA, "x", Elastic.easeIn, 175, 175, 5, true); var myTween:Tween = new Tween(WinA, "y", Strong.easeIn, 175, 175, 5, true);
This is the code in my custom window (which I cannot manage to close and have it remove itself from the main movie when clicked):
exitinteraction_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, closeI);
function closeI(e:Event):void{ this.unloadAndStop();
}
I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1006: unloadAndStop is not a function. at windowa/heyb()

I've created a main page with my main links on top, and a container as my body.I load my pages with this action to the container.
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "production";
container.loadMovie("production.swf");
[code]....
Inside the production.swf files I've created a gallery with a MovieClip that loads from my library to a container1 inside the production.swf. In the galleryMC(from library), Ive created a close button to unload it from the container1. It works fine from my production.swf file, but when it loads to the main page it doesn't unload. This is the ActionScript that I have to unload the Movie Clip.
on (release) {
this._root.container1.unloadMovie();
}

I am importing a youtube video to a new movie clip using this script:
Code:
function containYoutube(youtubevar, depthLevel) {
this.createEmptyMovieClip("youtubecontainer",depthLevel);
this.youtubecontainer.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/"+youtubevar);
[Code].....
I need to be able to unload it if the user jumps to another part of the timeline. I have tried to just unload the movieclip, but it still seems that youtube is streaming data to the swf. If I do it locally, it crashes the application. If I put it on the server, it makes it clear that youtube is still loading even though the movie clip has been unloaded.

I am trying to create a gallery where the thumbnails scroll across the bottom and when you click on the thumb a new large image opens up on top of it from the same image.
What i would like to do is open up the large image but draw a box around this image so it blanks out the background of the site and all you see is that picture.
Its a similar function to the way this site works;

I have some buttons that load an external flash file into the container movie clip with this code:
[code]...
So it plays the tweening out animation of the file that's already loaded, then loads the new file, playing the tweening in animation. However, currently the container movie clip is empty when the flash movie is played. I want to be able to have some content already loaded in it, but when I use the container .loadMovie("start.swf") code, it just keeps loading start.swf into it when any of the other buttons are clicked. Is there a way I can have content load when the flash movie is started, but when any of the buttons are clicked, for it to tween out, and basically, never reappear?

I want to load a completely scripted movie into a container clip but when I test it none of the script is executed. When I load a movie that is just a tween it works. What should I do to make the script work??? i have a feeling it has something to do with _root it the loaded movie.

I want the current swf to unload and the new one to load only after a transition occurs. Is there a more efficient way to do this than if. switch()?

I have a problem with buttons and transitions and it is similar to a problem I had a couple of days ago that I posted and that was sorted out. I have two buttons onstage (they're inside a movie clip) inside the movie, on the button one I have the following
[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.

I have begun to build a vertical gallery. I have it set up to follow an xml document and it loads rather quickly. While the loading works, the unloading is not so hot. I can't figure out how to unload the container_mc which contains all the thumbnails. I intend to develop this page in as3 primarily so that I can adopt it to other projects. The arrangement is two vertical boxes on the right and left, a text box at the bottom in between the two vert boxes, and a fullscreen box in the center. The drawn squares are only being used as placeholders for real art right now.
As it stands, I can use either button to load the gallery, but when I click the next gallery it unloads everything, but it does not reload the next gallery. I want the buttons to load their respective galleries. I figure once I set up the structure for 2 galleries, I can make more.
var Gal_Array1:Array = new Array();
Was my attempt at loading the thumbs into an array, and later clearing it but I don't think it works (I think it would only double the amount of thumbs?). How to properly load and unload the container_mc?
Code:
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import fl.controls.ProgressBar;

I have a main movie which loads sections into an empty container MC from external SWFs. Each SWF contains a close button to close the section—but I can't get it to work. I am stuck. Anyone know which method to use in this case?This does not work:
Code:
// closeBox is just an MC sitting inside a section SWF
closeBox.onRelease = function():Void
{
removeMovieClip(this._parent);
};
I should add that the SWF gets loaded into the container in the main movie using MovieClipLoader upon release of a menu button.

I am loading external swf's into a main load.swf, using a Moviecliploader object. What I basically want to do is that, after an external movie, say home.swf, loads another external swf, say about.swf, home.swf should be unloaded.
home.swf is loading about.swf into the _root.mc_holder, which is placed inside load.swf. I want all external files to be placed within this holder. Now this is working with some files, but not with others. My standard code within all files is this:
//code within home.swf to load about.swf
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();var ldrlistener = new Object();loader.addListener(ldrlistener);ldrlistener.onLoadStart =

I have a button ( 3 buttons ) and each button is assigned to Load a movie. When you click one of the buttons, the LoadMovie on Level 1 is good. Now here is my problem, how will I unload the current movie before Loading the next one. I want to UNLOAD the CURRENT MOVIE first before loading another MOVIE.
