Flash :: Display Data Contained In A Large XML Document?
May 20, 2011I have a large flash project and I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle it. I want to load in an XML file of groups and their members, and a bunch of attributes related to each group and its respective members - but these groups and members are only displayed on screen after a user clicks on their parent groups. My first thought was to just pull in the XML for the whole tree of groups and users, then assign movie clips for the groups, and attach properties related to their display and how the user will interact with them - but if they may never appear on screen, is it pointless to do this? How do I best structure this project? Build an object and attach properties only to the object, then add display data only on click?

Sep 10, 2006how to drag a movie clip that is larger than the flash document and have it stop dragging at the edges of the movie clip? I have an 300x300 (just for example) flash movie. i have an image that is 500x650 placed a x/y of 0. i want people to be able to drag the large image so they can see the whole image, even though its larger than the movie dimensions. but i dont want it to keep dragging so say they drag it left 600 pixels, you see past the edges of the images to the background. i guess if you do the math, say at x/y = 0, they can only max drag it left 250 pixels but not farther left so you wont see past the edge of the image's right side. i have some diagrams to illustrate.

Feb 28, 2009I have followed the XML Video tutorial and everything works fine however Lee says you can use a movie clip to display the contents of the XML file instead of one of Flash's built in components. Is there a way to create your own drop down menu or simple text field?

ActionScript 3.0 :: XML Document Not Parsing Correctly In Nested Movie Clip
Feb 3, 20101. When I place all movie clips on the same main stage, the xml file can be read perfectly. BUT not reading properly inside nested movie clip. Is it possible to read XML object in nested movie clip in the first place???
2. Is it better to load xml document just once in main timeline, and then read the XML object from movieclips OR read the XML document for each movie clip? Which way is better???

The movie clip that serves as my pop up window is popping up behind all my moving icons.I need it over top of them obviously.2. I need to figure out a simple way to pause time while the pop up is up and resume time when it disappears.3. I need to add about 5 seconds to the game clock when the user shoots a question mark so that it appears as though the clock was stoppedonClipEvent (enterFrame) {if (_root.time == 30) {_root.speedz = 9;_root.intervaln = 30;}if (_root.time == 10) {_root.intervalz = 10;}if (_root.time ==0) {_root.gotoAndStop(3); }}

Dec 10, 2007I have a movie clip symbol that is place on my main time line.I want the movie clip to display frames for (x) seconds then go to the next frame.I have a chunk of code that works by itself but when placed into my flash site it is causing some strange problems. Such as navigating to a label (page) prior to the movie clip that has the wait function code, freezes the flash.I am wondering if I need _root or a this in there somewhere.
The reason I want to do this is so I don't have to add a bunch of frames to get the pause time I need.Is there a way to use the code below and not have it cause problems with the rest of my time line?Here is the wait function code

ActionScript 2.0 :: Display Instances Of Movie Clip In A Grid Pattern?
Feb 10, 2009I want to load a range of images (20-30) each contained in a movie clip, and position them on the stage in a grid (table) format using actionscript. These images will be loaded from an XML file to make updating them a simple task in the future.
I have followed a tutorial to produce a "carousel" and this allowed me to have as many images as I wished loaded by the actionscript. I am sure that it is possible to have the items arranged however one would like provided you code the script correctly, and this is my problem. I cannot work out the correct code to get the movie clips into the desired arrangement.
how to position the items in various arrangements/patterns. I do not want a scrolling thumbnails solution. I want them to be multi-row/column.

Jan 16, 2006basically i would like to dynamically display and preload an image onto my main movie clip. this image would be the first item in my xml file. on my main timeline i would like to have a few buttons that a user could click to change the default image on the page.
when they select a new image, i would like to have the preloader appear above the default image and then tween between the old and new image (one fading out and one in kinda thing).i sourced some code but i've been having problems preloading the first image. the image loads but the preloader doesn't do anything. it seems like the preloader doesn't seem to recognise that i'm trying to load an image. it thinks it's fully loaded and carries on before the load can begin!i would also like attach a different preloader for the first image displayed than the ones being loaded via the buttons.

Jul 16, 2010Basically I am trying to do a Flash (AS 2.0) application that connects a FMS server. That isn't the problem, though. The problem is that when I click a button (myBtnEn) it changes a Bool variable to true, and if I click another button (myBtnDis) it changes the same Bool variable to false. The problem is:I want to display that variable's state in a Dynamic Text Box that is inside 1 Movie Clip and it doesn't change/display a thing else than when is loaded.[code]as you can imagine the code for myBtnDis is the same but "false" in the place of "true".myBoolStatus : name of the VARIABLE in the Dynamic Text Box.I have tried to name the Dynamic Text Box (for example "myBoolStatusP") and then add the ".text = " code but still the same.
