ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Each New Movie Into A Higher Level Than The Last?
Jan 5, 2006I'm designing a site at the moment & I've run into a minor snag. I am loading about five external swf's, for each page of the site, from the main 'home' page. you can view it here Trouble with levels. I can load the movies fine, but what I want is to load each new movie into a higher level than the last, as each movie appears with a mask (for an example have a look at the site I've done then click on the 'Contact Us' button - that is what I want to do on all of the pages...) all of the swf's are loaded into level one with the exception of the 'Contact Us' page. (By the way, there is no 'News' page yet)
The very simple code I used to load the movies is:
Code:
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("contact.swf", 2);
}
ActionScript 3.0 :: GotoAndPlay Frame On Higher Level?
Sep 18, 2010I've got a button that, when clicked, needs to play a frame. Normally I'd just use the gotoAndPlay feature, but the frame I want to play is on a higher level than the button. That is to say that the button is inside of a few movie clips but the frame I want to point to is just in the main scene, not inside of movie clips
View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Keeping Focus On Higher Level Swfs?
Mar 2, 2006I'm sort of re-discovering Flash. As such, I'm a bit rusty with all the ActionScript and general techniques. I have a site that loads swfs on higher levels with loadMovieNum (i.e., a pop-up photo gallery). The only problem lies in lower level buttons still remaining active; apart from the aesthetic issue, I don't want the user to be able to "accidentally" click something on level0. Is there a general method for keeping the "focus" on the highest level, or making any interactive elements below inactive?

Actionscript 3 :: MovieClip Higher Than Set Mask?
Apr 9, 2011I have a movieclip with a prefilled content (some simple vector graphic in a movieclip), with the height of 40. I then apply a mask to it, with the height of 30. Now i would think that the MovieClip is 30 pixel high, but it turns out to be 40 pixel high. Is there some property im not setting or does the movieclip always assume the height of ALL the content within it? or what?
Actually in another clip, too, I have predefined 2 vector graphics (in two seperate movieclips), where the highest one is applied as a mask to the second graphic. The movieclip again assumes the height of the highest element. That might be logical, as it is the mask, BUT! when i then resize my mask (programatically) the height of the movieclip remains the same.Is there some way to recalculate the height of a movie clip? Or am I missing something?

Mar 8, 2010I have a Movieclip on stage with nested movieclips inside. All referenced at 0,0. None of the child movieclips load any dynamic content, animate or have Masked Layers. It does have an input textfield in one of the child MCs. The parent MC shows 280 px width, while it returns 313 px with a .width trace. There is no code that alters the .width value of the parent MC at run-time. And the ParentMC on stage is not scaled (it is at 100% width/height)
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Create A New Movieclip For Each Top-level XML Node And Include In The Movieclip Two Separate Textfields?
Jun 4, 2009My goal with this actionscript is to create a new movieclip for each top-level XML node and include in the movieclip two separate textfields, an image, extend the movieclips to two row if necessary, rotate each movieclip differently depending its parity and add a hover event based on the movieclips instance name. I have achieved each goal except for the hover bit. The reason I cant access the instance name outside of the for loop is because the instance name only lasts for duration of the loop. Here is my current code (at pastie address).

Sep 15, 2011When I mouse over a movieclip, I want its alpha level to change. Here's what I have:
ActionScript Code:

object.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutObject);
function mouseOverObject(e:MouseEvent){
if(!inventoryOpen){ e.currentTarget.alpha = 100; }
} function mouseOutObject(e:MouseEvent){
if(!inventoryOpen){ e.currentTarget.alpha = 50; }

It does work, but the mouseover only registers when the cursor is over certain areas of the movieclip.

ActionScript 1/2 :: OnLoad Working At _root Level But Not At Mc_target Level?
Aug 26, 2010I have two layers in my FLA both with empty movie clips as follows:In mc_Empty1, I attach a faded background movieclip as I wait for mc_Empty2 to load a SWF. Once the SWF is loaded into mc_Empty2, I want to remove the faded background movieclip from mc_Empty1. When I load the SWF from the main timeline, the onLoad() function works and removes the faded background from mc_Empty1. However, when I load the SWF from mc_target, the SWF loads, but the onLoad() function does not. Here's my AS2 code:
//Loading SWF from main timeline
mc_Empty1.attachMovie("mcFadedBg", "mc_FadedBg", 1);
mc_Empty2.loadMovie("My.swf");mc_Empty2.onLoad = function():Void{ trace("loaded"); //This works removeMovieClip(mc_Empty1.mc_FadedBg); //This works}
[code]....
I know I'm targeting properly because the SWF loads as it should, but the onLoad() function does not.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Application Level Vs Document Level Class Paths?
Oct 2, 2010This is making me a little kooky today. I thought I could defined a library path in PREFERENCES > ACTIONSCRIPT > ACTIONSCRIPT 3.0 SETTINGS then that library would be available to all AS3 FLA files, but that doesn't seem to work for me. If I use the PUBLISH SETTINGS and define the library path everything is fine.
Is there something that I could have done to disable the application level class path functionality? I guess I'm trying avoid having to set the library path for every new FLA I'm making.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Play Movieclip To Show Start Of Level In Game?
Nov 8, 2009I have a game with multiple levels, which is working as I want it to. I would like to add just one extra bit of functionality. As each level starts, I would like a movieclip to play and then disappear after a second or so. The movieclip will just say "level 1", "level 2" etc, without any interaction. Ideally it will appear as the level loads, and then fade out to disappear.

Dec 26, 2011I'm doing a bigger aplication in flash (as2).Image, there is a main "home" flash with several menu buttons.Clicking these buttons, I load external swf into an empty container in this "home" flash.[code]clicking buttons in this second level, will load external movies into an empty container in this SECOND LEVEL swf.This works fine, but now, coming to the THIRD LEVEL (don't think there will be more in the future) problems come up, some scripts won't work.Now (I'm a as2-beginner) I think, loading external swf ALLWAYS into containers in the first "Home" flash should solve the problem.But I don't know, how to load an swf from the third level into a container in the first "home" level.In the "home" level, I have a "close" button, that will unload the container content.I need to go to a certain scene "content_2" in the home swf, too.

Calling A Swf From1st Level To Go From 3rdlevel To 2nd Level
Dec 2, 2009I have called main.swf into a container in index.swf.
myMCL.loadClip("main.swf","container"); is an action on my Index.fla timeline.
I have my navigation on index. (i wanted it to go on main, but the nature of the animation meant it had to go on index)
I need to call "home.swf" into "main.swf" from the navigation button in Index.swf.
When I had the navigation on "main.swf" this was my code to call "home.swf" into the page.
on (release) {
Preloader_mc.gotoAndStop("home");
}
("home") is the label name where the preloader is for home.swf
how to call the preloader for home into main.swf from "INDEX.SWF INSTEAD OF MAIN.SWF"

ActionScript 3.0 :: Crossdomain Policy File On Root Level Cannot Be Deployed On Root Level?
Jan 14, 2009Situation:
- We have a Flash application located on a SAP EP (let's say ep.x.com)
- We have a SAP ABAP Application (Webservices) on a SAP WebAS
server (abap.x.com)
- Clarification: This is not about Flash islands / but a normal Flash application communicating with WebAS ABAP via WebServices
Problem: Due to the changed security policy in Flash 10 this scenario does no longer work.
- A crossdomain policy file on root level cannot be deployed on root level
- The WebServices http/s headers cannot be modified, since the WebServices are generated by the WebAS IDE.
Comment: Technically there is a way to patch a WebAS ABAP,but this is not a practical / acceptable way in a normal SAP WebAS infrastructure.
Conclusion:- The above scenario (Flash from EP content / WebAS ABAP as backend) is a quite normal scenario in the SAP world.
- SAP / Adobe always features the close relationship between their technologies.
Question:- What could we do?
- How does the Visual Composer works around that problem?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Add A Child Of Index 2 Or Higher?
Mar 3, 2010I'm working on a project conversion from AS2 to AS3.
In AS2, I used a mainMenu file and loaded a Navigation file at _level 999 (very top). Then I loaded and unloaded different modules on _level 5.I also loaded and unloaded an external Glossary file on _level 95.Now in AS3 I am using AddChildAt(1) for the Naviation file and AddChildAt(.1) and removeChildAt(.1) for the module files. The Glossary file only seems to work at Child Index 1, so I'm guessing it pushes the Navigation file to a higher index. Is there a reference that explains the Index properties of the Child and why sometimes I get an error when I try to add a Child of Index 2 or higher?
