I want to add 20 Moviclips at a time by Loop, from Library. so can any body tell me how could it possible.I can add one MovieClip just by as:
var mc:Movieclip = new MovieName();
But i need some string type method which can add multiple MovieClips from Library at a time.in AS2 there was a method for attchMovie, in which we can add Linkage name with Name0, Name1, Name2 as 'Name'+i.....
I'm still new to AS3, so firstly, is there a place to read up on the structure of AS3?
2ndly, I'm trying to place a movieclip from the library into a class that extends movieclip like so:
the library movieclip is named "player" for example.

I am trying to add movieclips from the library to my view elements. now yeah the static way is known, just name it, create a : new XClip() and here ya go. But what if I want to add it dynamicaly meaning I create one class to add clips and just ahdn it iver a variable t know which clip to add like : new myClipNameVar() nyone know what i mean? anyone know how to do this. if it sonly movieclips, fine, if someone knows how to do this for bitmaps (PNGS, etc) grandeur!
View 4 RepliesI am currently working on a project that has me adding and removing a notepad that is a movieclip. Initially, I put the notepad to the outside of the stage and just moved it in with a button click, but now I want to make it so that it appears and disappears from the stage.
I tried the following code and kept getting a 1010 error. Property undefined for "addNotepad".
After adding a datagrid to the library in layer3 frame 15 the inputTexts x2 in frame 1 are not editable (cannot input) not even by using Tab. when i remove the dataGrid from the library everything is OK again
View 1 RepliesWhen addressing nested movieclips like so: _root.movieclip.movieclip.variable they need to have an instance name set, otherwise they count as undefined. So I can set that in the properties no problem, but when deleting it from the stage and then readding (manually or by actionscript) the instance name is gone thus I can not address nested clips by action script.
I don't understand how this will work then, since every time I add a clip by code it will have no instance name. The only alternative for me so far was keeping the clip on the stage the whole time, just out of bounds or invisible so I can still do stuff like _root.movieclip.movieclip.variable or _root.movieclip.movieclip.gotoAndStop(2).
just wondering why this code returns: 1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0.when relating to this:var cm:collectionsMenu = new collectionsMenu('cm');

what I want to do is dynamically when the movie is running add a MC to the library only, I don't want it on stage, I just want to create it, add the content to it and that's it, I just want it sitting in the library. I saw this code on another post, but I don't know if this is it or if this relates to a component of some sort:
ActionScript Code:
itemexists = fl.getDocumentDOM().library.itemExists("Service1");
if (itemexists == false) {
[code]....
I've tried searching everywhere I can think of, and in CS3 the help has no documentation to the getDocumentDOM function or adding to the library on the fly. how do I add to this said MC in the library, the same as I would any other MC or is it different?
I'm developing a site in AS3 and want to set up each section as a seperate SWF file. I have one main movie and a movieclip on it which I want to load my section swfs into. I want to be able to load in the target swf and add its library items to the stage - but I can't seem to do it The problem I'm encountering is that if I load a swf into a movieclip on my main movie (via addChild), I cannot access that loaded swfs library

i used this code with linkage to load a movieclip from library using flash action script 3

i want to know how am i able to load a flash movie clip from my current library into my stage with using a button via flash action script 2.
since im using other codes in action script 2 i can not cancel them and i really need to load a movie clip in my AS2 FLA.
In actionscript3.0 how to make an movieclip in library clickable?? i have intially a button on the stage when i click tis button, then the movieclip should appear and then when i click the movieclip a new bitmap should appear.. my problem is when i click the button, then the MovieClip from library gets loaded. But "WHEN I CLCIK THE MOVIECLIP ITS NOT LOADING THE BITMAP DATA FROM THE URL I HAVE GIVEN..."
my coding are lik tis
var s : s1 = new s1();// s is the instance name given to movieclip whose
class is s1

I am unable to add the Action Script 3 FLVPlayback component to my stage or library in Flash CS5.5 when working with an action script 3 document.
Under components in the video folder i click and drag anyone of the FLVPlayback components (FLVPlayback, FLVPlayback 2.5 or FLVPlaybackCaptioning) to the stage and nothing happens. I am unable to add it to my library as well. All the other actionscript 3 components under the Video folder work. (BackButton, BufferingBar, CaptionButton, If I create an actionscript 2 document the FLVPlayback component drags to the stage and adds to the library just fine. So this appears to be an actionscript 3 issue only.
I have 2 other employees in my office using the same product and none of them have this issue. Only me.
I have tried to uninstall the product and reinstall but nothing helps. I have Flash CS3 installed on my PC and the product has the same symptoms as the Flash CS5.5 trial version that I am running.
I did not try this with Flash CS3 before I installed the CS5 trial. So I do not know if it worked prior to my CS5 evaluation.
I am in the process of creating an info box Object, which displays one of the five organizational informations, dynamically on the user's choice. All the code is in the associated Class.I am stuck with one issue. It requires adding a PNG image, from a set of 5 small images, placed in the Library, on the top-left corner of the movie; appropriate to the contents. I tried adding an image container movieclip at the required position; but don't know how to attach the image, from the library, to this container.
View 2 RepliesI'll do my best to keep this question as short as possible:
I've made 5 'fruit' movieclips and they're in my library.
And using so.addVariable("getNumber", "003"); in my HTML code, I'd like those particular fruit movieclips to play one after the other (and then loop).
I've had a look around for something similar, without luck, so I'm trying to make it from scratch. I got as far as getting it to load the first number and then the first type and url, but I'm stuck on getting to go onto the next type, also being able to define (with addVariable) which number's nodes gets played.
Here's an example of my XML to show the structure.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<list>
<number="001" >

I was wondering if there is a way to tell flash to navigate to a movieclips timeline without that movie clip being on stage or having an instance...
For example i have MovieClip1 in my Library and its named MovieClip1...but its not located on the stage...
I've created a carousel class which takes one parameter, an array of menu item names, these will then be displayed on the carousel. I've then created two movieclips for the left and right controls, added them to the library and given them classes of their own.Within the carousel class I instantiate instances of the two control classes which then enables me to add event listeners for rollover and rollout.
What I'd like to know is, is this the best way to do this short of creating the controls using pure actionscript?I'd like to not have to add the class properties for the left and right controls and have a situation where I could just give them the right name and they would work or maybe pass them in as parameters and use them that way.
I have several buttons that on mouse over will load a library movie clip. I want that movieclip to load on top of everything then once it's played allow me to either replay that movieclip by hovering over the button again or play a different movieclip by hovering over another button etc etc. with the ability to repeat this.
My code below currently loads my movieclip on top in hte corerct place however wont allow me to hover over another button and only plays once: var my_packages_mc:MovieClip = new packages_mc();var my_treatments_mc:MovieClip = new treatments_mc();

All the examples I've seen involve .swf's, but I need the end-user to select one of 30 movieclips and interact with it's nested contents. The movie clip is about 200kb. Preloading the whole project is out of the question, as that would be needlessely large.

I have made a couple of small animations in flash, that have sounds in them (attached to frames to play at the right time in the animation via the frames properties) and I want to add these into a different flash project to be used. The sounds play perfectly when I run the .swf's by themselves.
So I have added them into the library of the other project, and exported them for use in first frame, but when I add them using addChild and play them the sounds do not play at all?
