ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Create A Movieclip Of An Image?
Feb 23, 2011
I'm Java developer in transition to AS3, my task is to create one of those spaceship games ( beathazard / asteroids style ) but im already being destroyed by the differences between these languages.... im trying to make this game completely through AS3, in other words, trying to evade manual setup as much as possible, at this moment, im trying to create my spaceship (an instance of my SpaceShip class), my background (instance of my Scenary class), my bullets (instance of Bullet class) and my game ( Game class ).
The first problem im having is that i cant seem to make the ship find its sprite while executing its constructor so i can create a new instance of it and add it to my game (actually, my scenary).[code]...

i wrote a bit of actionscript to dynamically create an image gallery based on how many images are in a given directory. as of now, i've got it to display thumbnails in rows. my next step would be to get these thumbnails to link to the fullsize images, but i cant figure out how to do that. my code is as follows:

I'm modifying a flash slideshow (actually the one from kirupa.com) and among other things, I'm trying to get it to generate small LEDs depending on the number of images the script finds in the xml file. I intend to make them light up depending on the image currently up (i.e. image #5 lights up led #5) and allow users to click on the LEDs to jump around between images.
The problem I'm having now is that I can't get the file to generate more than one LED at a time. In fact, it seems to only generate the last LED needed and places it in the final LED position. My only real guess at this point is either I'm not indicating a new depth properly, or I'm creating the new movieclip over and over again but not actually creating a duplicate of it, or something like that.[code]...

I want to create a movieclip so that that I can create text inside of it and make it clickable. I want to do this all dynamically since I am using ZendAMF to pull in database information to put in the text box. So far I have this:

nameCont = new MovieClip();

I am using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0.I think there is someone who spends 2 minutes of your valuable time in providing solution for my problem or issue.
My description for my problem(with layer numbers/names) starts from here: Layer-1: I am loading an external image(.jpeg) onto the stage dynamically when "Submit" button(which is created & placed in Layer1) is clicked using the following sample code:
[code]...
The jpeg image is loaded perfectly and works fine.
Layer-2:When I click on this loaded image, a Pop-up must be visible. So, I created Pop-up in Layer2, which is nothing but a MovieClip(with instance-name myPopup), is a rectangular box with light-yellow colored background, which makes us to feel like a pop-up). So, I created this Pop-up in a layer named "Pop-up". My requirement is : Whenever I click on the image loaded, I need to view the Pop-up upon this loaded image near to the pixel-position where CLICK_Event has occured.To view an example of my requirement,just go through the following [url]Once you open the above url, then you right-click on the right-side image(which is a geographical map). You can view a Pop-up with some of the items(viz., Directions from here, Directions to here, Zoom in, Zoom out & Center map here)
Layer-3:In the same way, in my application ,I want to display few hyperlinks on this pop-up. So, I had created TextFields on the stage(which are hyperlinks) using "Text Tool from ToolsBox" in Layer3 named as "TextFields". I am accessing these TextFields using
<TextField-instance>.htmlText to make it a hyperlink.So, here my problem is: After loading of the jpeg image, When I try to click on the image, the Pop-up(MovieClip) and "Submit" button appears to be under the loaded image and the TextFields are visible over the loaded image.Hence textfields/hyperlinks visibility works fine i.e., on the loaded image as hyperlinks.
Now, What I should do in order to make the MovieClip(Pop-up) and "Submit" button visible on the loaded image?

I'm trying to write a class that will create my movieclip buttons dynamically, and assign some text to a dynamic text box inside it, based on the argument I pass to the method in this class. I've got a movieclip in my library with the linkage shown below - And I've got this so far in its own AS file -
Code:
package com.willgoldstone.tutorials {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Mybtn extends MovieClip{

All I want to do is instantiate a copy of this movieClip in my library and assign a value to its dynamic text field..

In my movie I have a few products that I resize dynamically based on which one is selected. the selected product is shown full scale while the other are scaled back. However the scaled back ones lose image quality and look pixelated. the products are currently movieclips in my presentation. Is there a way to use scale w/o it distorting the image? I'm currently using TweenLite for my tweening/scaling.

I wonder if any of you can point me in the right direction. In my stage I have a movieclip where I want to load several images with different sizes. This mc called "container" adds the loader to the stage so I'm asking for the loader width and height once has finished loading and then passing these to the width and height of the mc container so it resizes accordingly. But...it doesn't work. Here is my code:
[CODE]
var pic:Loader;var totalImages:int = 10;for (var i:uint = 0; i<totalImages; i++){ pic = new Loader() container.addChild(pic) pic.load(new

I did small flash where i exported layers from Photoshop and converted them into movieclips. currently i need to change they image source to other when i click on button. this one is required to make swf file smaller to load files after loading swf file itself. i found how to do it but in this case i cant change size of picture.
Code:
function img5(e:MouseEvent):void{
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var imageRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images/Water lilies.jpg");

I'm trying to create rows of information in Flash using createTextField in a dynamically attached movieclip. I have the autoSize property set to "center" to account for varying lengths of text. However when I try to obtain the height of the current textbox so I can set the _y property of my next record, Flash doesn't seem to be recognizing the autoSize property and returns the same height for each record.
I added a second frame in the movieclip I'm attaching with a "trace(this._height)"... The correct height property is shown.
how I can get the height property right away after creating the textbox?

i'm trying to attach/create a new empty movieclip to load an image into each time my function fires (function has setInterval on it).so far, my code works in that the first time it creates the empty clip and loads the pic in it, measures the loaded bytes and alpha fades in when it's loaded.when the function repeats however, the newly created clip is either not there or i am not referencing it correctly, or there's some problem with the way i'm trying to do this.I don't want to delete the previously attached clip since i'm alpha fading the new one to 100 on top of it.kind of a simple crossfade that way.here's my code:
Code:
startSlides=function(){
this._parent.largePic.createEmptyMovieClip("clipp"+i, 5);
this._parent.largePic["clipp"+i]._alpha=0;[code].....

Lets say you have a bunch of similar movieclips and you want to move anyone of them dynamically. We would use:

Something like that. However, my issue is not selecting a movieclip dynamically, but selecting another movieclip dynamically within a dynamically selected movieclip.

I'm creating a moodboard application where the user can dynamically load an image onto the stage by pressing a thumb of the image in a menu item. I have most of that working but what I would like to know is that, if there is a way the user can interactively scale/transform the image when it is on the stage in the swf file?

I would like to make a very simple (well, looks simple anyway) image gallery, like Ilyas da Pom's at [URL]..
I want the image part to scale to fit each image dynamically. I'm a brand-spanking new Flash novice, and any guidance would help really; this is just a tiny little personal project, not to be used anywhere commercially.
