ActionScript 3.0 :: Always Centering On The Stage

Jun 23, 2009

I have a movieClip that starts out a a specific scale. I then tween the images properties and as it tweens it also scales again. What I'm trying to do as it tweens and scales its obviously changes the width and height of the movieClip. So I'm trying to constantly keep the clips position in the center of the stage.

I'm using tweenMax and I tired an update event so I could keep checking the width and height of the clip as it scales and then using this code to center it but it doesn't seem to be centering the image. On other thing to note is my MovieClip is using its top left corner as the registration point.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Not Centering On Stage / Why

Oct 14, 2009

I've come across a new snag to a previous project. I'm not quite sure why, but when the full image is loaded to the stage, it is not centering it properly. The trace of fullLoader returns "0" for the width and height of the full-sized image, and I'm not quite sure how to pass the necessary information into the showPicture function so that it correctly centers the image. I tried tracing the content of fullLoader and got an error message.[code]

IDE :: Centering Preloader On Stage?

Jun 21, 2010

I'm heaving trouble centering the preloader on the center of the stage. The preloader is basically a rotating oval shape.

so, below is the code that for some reson puts the circle in the top left corner...

Code:
stop();
var circle:LoadCircle = new LoadCircle();
var circle_WIDTH:Number = circle.width;

[Code]....

meaning... the stage is not static, but it dynamically shrinks and expands to the size of the oval preloader...

how to make the stage "static" so that when I set the size in the document properties, centering an object in AS3 will stick to it?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Centering The Stage In A NativeWindow?

Aug 4, 2011

I'm having trouble with the positioning of objects within the NativeWindow. So my code below creates a NativeWindow, and then draws a rectangle and adds it to the stage of the NativeWindow. I can't seem to have the rectangle centered in the window. I've tryed playing with the stage scale mode, and align properties. By default the align should be center, but it doesn't appear to be the case. The rectangle seems to be drawn from somewhere between the center and top left of the window. I've also drawn a rectangle onto the main app window using identical code.

Code:

import flash.display.NativeWindowInitOptions;
import flash.display.NativeWindow;
var NWIO = new NativeWindowInitOptions();

[code]....

Left window is the main app, and the right window is the NativeWindow.

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Object (images) Centering On The Stage

Jan 2, 2010

I would like to call up images from myXML and I would like to center them on the stage. Each object is a different size therefore I can't place them to a set _x position. Hopefully someone may have the answer.... here's the function that will call up the firstimage:

function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween(content_mc, "_x", normal, 0, 480, .75, true);
content_mc.loadMovie(image[0]+".jpg", 1);
content_mc_num();
}

The highlighted '480' is the number i would like to replace to center. I'm not being to vague with this request, otherwise i'll offer more information.

ActionScript 3 :: Centering Moving Object On Stage Resize

Nov 19, 2010

I want to center a big movieclip (1400 px wide) on my stage on stage resize. This big movieclip moves to the right on certain events so I can't use code like this:
currentPage.x = ((stage.stageWidth/2) - (currentPage.width/2))
Is there a way to maybe use its offset from 0 (the left side of the stage 'viewport') and use that offset in centering? The movieclip only changes in x.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Centering Nested Movie Clips To Stage?

Aug 16, 2007

I'm currently working in Flash 8 with Actionscript 2.0.

I've been trying different alternatives and none of them are working. I've even posted here previously and tried a few things but I haven't quite resolved my centering to stage problem. Some of you may have already read pieces of this from another post.

I have a landscape that functions sort of like a 360 vr tour. The main movie clip directly on the stage is labeled, "mainMovie", and within it is another movieclip labeled, "singleStrip".

To simulate the 360 vr tour, there's script inside, "mainMovie" to duplicate "singleStrip". Also, inside the "singleStrip" movie clip, I have different elements appearing through the landscape, in this case, we'll use letters as an example. The letters A - Z are sitting on the landscape throughout the entire "singleStrip" movie clip.

Everything rotates fine with the script that's placed some sensitive area movie clips that are placed on the root level. When you place your mouse pointer to the left edge of the stage, the landscape shifts left, when you move the mouse pointer to the right edge, the landscape shifts right, (or vice versa, I can't remember).

The problem I'm having is for the letters that are in view on the stage, I want the user to be able to "click" on them and then that letter zoom up to the center of the stage, (through the "x" coordinate). I'm having difficulty with this since the letter movieclips, (example, "letterA"), are within the "singleStrip" movie clip, which sits inside the "mainMovie" movie clip, which are both constantly moving and their x position continues to change.

I've been using the tween class in order to animate them with easing and it's usually the "endx" variable that I'm having trouble because I don't know how I can match it up to the center of the stage, whether it's a "endx = stage.width._x /2; " or something else. Here's an example of some of the [code]...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating Comic - Centering Smaller Frames On Stage

Apr 30, 2009

My problem should be simple but I'm still having trouble. I am making a comic that appears on screen one frame at a time based off of on of the first flash tutorials that come with the program. It allows the user to click a button to move to the next frame. My problem is that the smaller frames need to be centered on the stage.

Here is the code I have so far
/* 0 */
var image0title:String = "Dr. Berg's Clinic. 1 of 4";
var image0uri:String = "images/Berg_frame_1.jpg";
/* 1 */
var image1title:String = "Dr. Berg's Clinic. 2 of 4";
var image1uri:String = "images/Berg_frame_2.jpg";
[Code] .....

My stage is set at a height of 350 px and a width of 500 px and the largest image is a height of 319 px and width of 500 px (the remaining 31 px are where I put the description and the button). The smaller images are a height of 319 px and a width of 166px and need to be centered.

Vertically Centering Flash Movie In Browser With Stage.scaleMode?

Oct 30, 2009

I have this flash website where i use Stage.scaleMode to dynamically resize the swf depending on the browser size. (i use A.script 2.0). So the width takes the whole screen and the height is scaled in proportion. My design is in a landscape format. It works fine, except that i need the swf to also be vertically centered in the browser Window. (explanantion - on certain screens, example a 19 inch PC monitor which is quite "squared", my flash movie expands the whole way across the width, and the height in proportion, but as my design is in landscape, i have a big empty space in the browser below the swf.)
 
This is how it is:    This is how it should be:

Here is the code:
 
stop();
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale"
Stage.align = "TL";

Actionscript 3.0 :: Centering Stage And Background Image Using Actionscript?

Jun 13, 2010

I did a website using actionscript 2 where the content was centered on the browser window both vertically and horizontally.

e.g. [URL]

all that took was a small piece of actionscript code that i can't remember now.

Now using actionscript 3, I can't find such code anywhere, instead I am guided towards using dreamweaver and css which seems like a nightmare for me to achieve. Such a fundamental thing should be possible with minimum effort surely?

Also, I have a similar problem where I'm trying to repeat tile or just add a textured background behind the stage. This also seems like I'm having to use html/css to achieve. I'd rather just use flash if possible??

ActionScript 2.0 :: Centering Until A Certain X Value?

Jun 25, 2008

I know theres probably a simple solution but it's escaping me at the moment.

I have a centered swf, I want it to stop centering if the swf reaches the side nav so they dont overlap.

function Center(mc) {
mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if(mc._x >500){

[Code]....

this stops the centering when it hits 500, but it stops all centering because it's stuck on 500.

IDE :: Centering .swf On Html Page And More?

Mar 25, 2009

1. I have an .swf framework file that imports two other .swf files into itself to be viewed. The actionscript to import the other .swf files is as below. This works in firefox 3.0.5, but not in any other newer or older version of firefox, even if they have the latest, and same flashplayer 10 versions installed. It doesn't work in explorer either but in opera it works. I't doesn't matter if I use mac or PC. Why ? Is there something wrong with my actionscript ? For now the page with the imported .swfs just shows up empty.

var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var loadHandler:Object = new Object();
loader.addListener(loadHandler);[code].....

2. I've used a html template that use div tags to center content both horizontaly and verticaly in any browser.The centering works fine, but when I put in the code for embedding my framework .swf, it starts chewing alot before the .swf shows up. It's like something slows down the whole process.Sometimes I have to reload the page to make it show. Check out the website to see whats wrong. View the source code in any browser to see if I have made some misstake putting in the code for flash embedding...
