ActionScript 3.0 :: External SWF Loads Over Buttons
Jul 26, 2010
I am loading an external SWF file on button click, however, when the external SWF loads, it covers the buttons. How I can keep the buttons on top? I even tried lading the External SWF into a Movie clip and putting the buttons on a layer above it - and it doesn't work.
This is my code:
// Array of external clips to use. Variable index refers to next clip to be displayed.
var clips:Array = ["page1.swf", "page2.swf", "page3.swf"];
var index:int = 0;
// Stuff to load swf files
var thisLoader:Loader = new Loader();
[Code] .....

I am using a main .swf with buttons on a navigation menu that loads external .swf(s) - these load external videos (I use them as their backgrounds).In the main .FLA I have used the following code (in the first and unique frame):
CODE
var Xpos:Number = 110;
var Ypos:Number = 180;
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/eyesClosed.swf");[code].....

I can make each button on the menu load each external .swf correctly with videos included - but when I leave that .swf using the navigation buttons to go to another section, the video and audio keep working in the background.

I am currently doing a project that to create a full flash website. The website contains a preloader, an introduction movie, and dynamically loads external swfs when click the menu buttons. I am struggling with the preloader part. My preloader movie does not shown until 50% and disappears at 90%. I have searched for solutions on the internet for days but could not find any. I attached my source file as well as the swf.

if you open up the TEST.swf you can see how I want my transition to look like.. everything works perfectly.. then if you open the Load.swf and click one of those red buttons.. it loads up the external swf.. but if you click another button it loads up the same external thing.the difference between Load.swf and TEST.swf is that in Load.swf is container in which the TEST.swf is loaded..

Lets say I have subgallery.swf file that loads jpeg images. And I have gallery.swf file that loads subgallery.swf.The jpeg images and both swf files are in the same folder.When I test gallery.swf it loads subgallery.swf but subgallery.swf doesn't load images. When testing subgallery.swf alone, it loads jpeg files.Is there any limitation or setting preventing external swfs loading other content?

I'm making a roll over flash file, it contains 3 roll over buttons on the left panel and each brings up a piece of unique text. What i'm having problems with is getting one of the buttons to stay up when the webpage loads but then changes if you choose another roll over button. Also i want the text for each button to stay up if i leave the button roll over area but it changes to the other if a different roll over button is hit.

1. When you click on the buttons for 2 and 3, ALL three buttons move to a different part of the screen.
2. When you click on the button for 1, ALL three buttons return to their initial position.
Ideally, when the buttons move they would in fact travel across the screen rather than disappear for an instant and reappear in the new locations. Usually I would do this via a motion tween, but I can't figure out how to incorporate one here without conflicting with the other actions and thus messing everything up! I have to use a site structure similar to the one in the example because I need the intros/outros to be different for each mc.

movieClip loads multiple XML files that populates a serie of buttons (names of the players). What I need to do is, sort the buttons by the names of the players.
I added the .fla and one of the .xml files.
I've read that I should put my xml data into an Array but I could'nt.

I've got an SWF that'll be viewed via a webpage, that loads a choice of 7 different web pages/SWFs depending on buttons clicked.The problem is these files are quite big and take a good few seconds to load each, so for each SWF, I created a progress bar on frame 1, that then loads frame 2 (where all the code and content is) once it's ready. The code I used is as follows:[code]The problem is as you can see from is that it takes ages to load the loader! So I end up with a blankurl... screen then the loading bar, then the content. Making the loading screen pretty useless!

I have a preloader that loads an external .swf file. Preloader works fine, technically the external .swf loads fine, but the external .swf is scaled up so you can only see about 2/3 of the screen. I made the stage for the preloader the same size as the stage for the external swf. I used the HTML for the swf that gets loaded, and just changed the file name to that of my loader.

Please take a look at the attached folder to make sense of what I am will type now[URL]..Enclosed is a test zip folder called "trouble_test.zip". Inside there is a HTML file called "main". Open it in your browser and follow the steps that I have indicated.
My problem is that all the steps work offline/on local computer when using Firefox, Opera, Chrome and IE but when online then they work inside Chrome and Safari browser only. What I mean is that Step 3 fails inside Opera and Firefox when online. File XL_11.swf does not load into XL(MC) which is inside the main.swf file As it works inside Chrome/IE so I assume it can't be a file path/destination problem. I assume it is the code on my "XL" button that could be the problem, but why does it work in Chrome and Opera online + in all 4 browsers when offline? I am completely lost. Please take a look as it will take only 2 minutes for anyone who understands AS2

I using flash 8, actionscript 2.0.I am using this code on a BUTTON in order to load and external swf into an empty movie clip:
on(release){
_root.empty.loadMovie("test.swf");
}
It works fine, however I would like the button to first go to a NEW FRAME within the main timeline of the main movie, before it loads this external swf.

I have the movie loader working, but the movies the do not show the correct proportions. The individual swfs are the correct size but the movie loader in the main index displays them scrunched in vertically. I'm told you have to tell the movie to the correct proportions after it is loaded.If you look at the attached photos, you will see that the info displayed will not span across th entire vertical space How do I fix this/code it correctly?
Here is my code thus far:
var Xpos:Number = 0;
var Ypos:Number =1050;
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();

I am building a SWF player which loads external SWF's.
Rite Now. I could call the external SWF using URLRequest.
but I am getting 2 problems
1. How to run the SWF with the frame rate of the actual SWF movie. If, I increase the frame rate manually, some movies become a lot faster and some are pretty slow.
2. I have set a layer of 450px by 333px. How do I scale the external SWF with showall property to fit in the layer.

I have 25 buttons on a page. Each page loads an external swf. How do i write for each loop that will have the same result, but instead of 25 different pages, it loads the same page with different text. I know the text can be displayed with xml. The xml is not my concern. The for loop is.

a brief question: If a movie has a font embedded within it, and it then loads an external swf, can that external file access the font, and if so how?

I just watched the AS3 preloader tutorial here, and downloaded the FLA to copy the AS into my project. Here is the AS...
Code: Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("splash.swf"));
[Code].....
The preloader works to load the 'splash.swf', but that SWF is a 36 frame long movie, and when it loads from the preloader, it's already at Frame 36, so you never see what was before that frame. How can I get it to load at it's Frame 1?
