after loading an external movie clip called "mv_frame" into the main flash file , i need to access a movie clip inside the loaded movie called "hit" in as2 we do that using the point (.) to navigate into movie levels , but my question is how to do that in AS3?
View 2 Repliescan I make the flash movie full screen (filling entire area of browser window and continue to do so on window resize) AND load an external swf into that movie so that external swf does not get stretched but remains at 100% its default size?
View 1 RepliesHow I can reload/refresh contents that have been loaded by an external XML file. I have a XML file that has more than one parent node. When I click on a arrow button(to go to the next one) it does not reload or refresh the thumbnails.
View 14 RepliesI have created 2 textfields: an input textfield at level 0 with an instance name of input_txt and a dynamic txt box in a loaded movie at level 20 with an instance name of output_txt. How do I get the text that is input into level 0 to appear into the textbox at level 20?
View 2 RepliesNo matter what I try to access this swf..._root, _parent, _level0, etc...I can't get to it. I did a targetPath and it returned "level0"...so I'm not sure what I'm missing.
Code:
var player1holder:MovieClip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("player1holder", 0);
var player1loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
[code].....
This situation is rather tricky because I'm having to control movieclips/properties in both the Parent and Child SWFs.
The path I took was not to have a slave document in the loaded SWF as it was looking for all the library movieclips I was referencing in the Parent. I didn't know how to resolve that easily, so I decided to to refer to the Loaded SWF movieclips using an instance of the class onComplete[code]...
I have followed the tutorial on gotoandlearn that builds a preloader swf to load an external swf. The problem I am having on the main timeline is that I now cannot access a function in the final external loaded swf. This worked fine when I just loaded the external swf into the main timeline but with the preloader I think I have my loader instances confused and I don't know how to fix it.
[Code]...
Like I said this worked perfectly before I tried cleaning things up with intermediate preloader swf and now its all gone pete tong (again!!) When testing this by reviewing the main timeline it cannot recognise the function killStream
I have 2 .swf
main.swf
application.swf
main.swf loads (using Loader Class of course) application.swf So, i need to do 2 things into main.swf BUT from application.swf I have in main.swf
* BlackBgMC (MovieClip), with a Shape Tween, in Stop on Frame 1
* A Close Buttom that i put invisible in Frame 1
So, FROM .... application.swf in a some point (example Frame 10) i need to get Play the BlackBgMC (that is on main.swf), and the Close Buttom put it Visible.From application.swf i put:
MovieClip(root).BlackBgMC.gotoAndPlay(2)
or
MovieClip(parent).BlackBgMC.gotoAndPlay(2)
And I always get
"TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties."
How do i gotoAndPlay that MC from application.swf Sames happen with MovieClip(root).CloseButton.visible = true;
assigning a level for the external movie(reseller_locations.swf) loaded to a moivie clip(clipHolder)
code
loadMovie("reseller_locations.swf", this._parent.clipHolder);
my problem is that i need to make a reisze, cause the screen resolution for other users. My main and news movie works perfect, but the others movies re-scale everything bigger. The problem of the external loaded movie is: this movie needs the funktion:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
If i dont have this code inside the movie is not going to resize fullscreen into the main movie. Inside this movie im scalling photos and some mc's You can take a look what i mean under: [URL]
If you take a look to the bar where the Number of pictures (30) are you will see that the lower bar and the pictures is not going to scale to fill the full screen if i delete the this code;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
So I am loading an SWF like this:
ActionScript Code:
public function layoutLoad(e:Event):void
{
FlashConnect.trace("Display.loadLayout()");
[Code].....
It will compile but I get a "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." So I am not targeting right. I did double check my instance name is correct and in the root of the loaded SWF
i want to make an presentation,, for which.. at frame i click a button on frame 9 it goes to frame 10 and plays.. like my script on frame 10 is below
[Code]....
and when i click another button to go frame 1 from the same page at 10,, placed beside the loading external swf ,, it goes,, but the loaded external swf file is not going ,, or the external file not cleaning,, not removing.
Is it possible to access a movieclip inside an external swf (.fla file), using data from a vector?
The following code works correctly:
this._graphics.message2_mc.textLabel_txt.text = "Test";
Where as when I loop through a vector and try to replace "message2_mc" it cannot find the movie clip:
for(var i:uint = 1; i <= this._playlistState.subMovieVector.length - 1; i++)
{
var movieName:String = this._playlistState.subMovieVector[i].movieName;
this._graphics.movieName.textLabel_txt.text = "Test";
}
Presumably this is because I am putting a string in the middle of the line of code accessing the movie clip?
I am looking for a way to access contents from LMS within a Web Server by a AS3 based AIR App. I have e-learning courses setup up already in my LMS. People usually access these courses through their web browser, now I would like to create a AIR desktop App by using AS3 to access those courses in the LMS. What steps should I do in my AS3? Those course made by Flash. Is that possible that the completed AIR App can show up those courses through the AIR App instead of through web browser?

View 4 RepliesI have a flash movie that has an internal movie clip, when the various buttons are pressed I want to load a movie in place of this original so I have put this script one of the buttons:
[Code]...
However, the new movie is not positioned in the correct place ie - instead of it being in the same position as the original MC the top left corner is positioned in the middle of the stage.
I am working on a portfolio website and I have all my navigation with buttons linking to other pages, on the base level. All the buttons are scattered around the stage and when one of these buttons is clicked an external movie is loaded in the centre of the page.
The movie is a big white box with a slideshow of images from my portfolio in the centre of the stage.
My problem is that the buttons on the base level are easily clicked by accident, even though you cant see them with the white box.[code]...
i have a movieclip on timeline, and then i addchild ( a container ) to load an external swf movie on it. Then i want to have a button so i can pause the loaded swf movie.
And my problem is, i can access to it, i can change the properties like the alpha, but i can just stop or pause it.
i've been search and testing many script, but i still can make it work it just a simple task right? i can do it quickly with AS2

View 2 RepliesI want to make a web radio and i want to have a box displaying the current song playing and the song that is going to be loaded after.
In fact i need a solution to the first one as the second is the same.
The streaming provider is going to provide me with a txt file that is going to be refreshed every time the song changes .
So we have a txt file changing it's contents , now how can i make the swf refreshing it self to read the new changed txt file and displaying it ?
The best solution would be the swf refreshing every time the txt changes but i believe this isn't possible. So how can i at least refresh it let's say every 2 minutes or so ?

View 3 RepliesOn some sites i have seen usually portfolio or gallery type sites there are thumbnails, text or some shape that you click on to view a particular image. What I'm getting at is some of the sties show visually that the clip has been loaded with change of alpha (images that are not loaded greyed out and ones that have already been loaded are in colour etc..). An example of what i'm talking about is on [URL] When you click on the menu (selection uno), it loads a particular clip, and throughout the session on the site, u can tell which ones have been loaded and have not. I know there are probably many down and dirty ways of achieving this, but i know there is usually 1 or 2 'proper' methods for doing a particular thing.
View 1 RepliesHow can I find the width of an external jpg BEFORE it's been loaded into my movie? I can easily find the width of it AFTER loading by loading it into an empty movie clip and returning the width of this AFTER the jpg has loaded using the _width command. But what I want is to find the width BEFORE loading.I have tried "trace(1.jpg._width);" but this returns undefined, obviously as 1.jpg is not an object from my library, it's an external file. Any other ideas anyone?!
