ActionScript 3.0 :: Family Tree - Centering Dynamic Content?
Oct 15, 2010
I have one movie that I want dynamic content to appear in driven by xml. With text and background image for each node. It's only one row that gets wider as nodes are added. I need the cells to always be centered within the container - so they appear from a center line. I cannot find an example of this anywhere - In all example's I've found the nodes output left to right, looping to redraw a new row. Do you know if it is possible to achieve this? Some kind of script to calculate the number of nodes present then position the first cell's x position accordingly, I have no Idea how to do that. I cannot post the images here so if you imagine a family tree style diagram with a center vertical line - cells appearing and spreading out centered in one row.

I have one movie that I want content to appear in driven by xml. With text and background image for each node. (see attached diagram).It's only one row that gets wider as nodes are added.Problem is I need the cells to always be centered within the container - so they appear from the middle line.You can see diagram 1 and 2 the calls are positioned differently. I cannot find an example of this anywhere - In all example's I've found the nodes always output left to right, looping to redraw a new row.Any one know if this is possible, could a script calculate the number of nodes in the row and adjust the first node x position accordingly?

I have an index.swf that it's dimensions are 1020x610, now when I load content in a container in the index.swf it will be centered using an onResize stage listener, that works fine but only if the loaded content is 1020x610, I've also used an onEnterFrame that checks if the width and height are !=0 so that way it waits for it to load before centering the content.
What should I do to always keep my content centered. Lets say I want to load a swf that is smaller (ie the 1st frame only contains 1 element that is smaller than the stage dimensions) I'm not sure if I'm explaining this well....

I was looking at this tutorial, this is exactly what I am trying to do with my website, but this is AS3, is there a way to change the code so it will function exactly the same but with AS2 code instead.
I have already contstructed my site with AS2, which then wont allow this code to work, Is there even a way I can have an AS3 index file that loads the movies with the AS2 and applies the same resizing to the movies that have been loaded.

I would like to have a project where the background fits the whole window (can squeeze) and the content is automatically resized and centered; keeping its ratio.Auto-Resizing and Centering your Content But here's my problem :
My main project is 1400*900px.
My MC to handle is 1000*680px.
I load an external SWF in that MC (with addChild).This external SWF is 1000*680px too (same size than parent).I have a lot of clips in my external SWF and some of them are "out" the project zone.So when I load it in my MC; the MC is no more 1000*680 but more.I thought that what was outside didn't matter; but it seems that flash do not ignore what is out.So, when I use the code to resize/recenter the MC; it broke as it do not center as it should.I did try to use masks but it do the same.

I have a main flash container move that loads in multiple swf files. I created a movieclip container in the main flash container that resizes and positions according to the stage height and width as follows:
Code:
swf_width=stage.stageWidth;
swf_height=stage.stageHeight;
new_container_height=swf_height;
[Code].....
This works fine if no graphics are off the stage in the loaded swfs. Otherwise if I have a scrolling menu and the buttons out width the containing mc it takes into account the masked content width and centers the movieclip accordingly throwing alignment off.
Is there a way to ignore masked content when getting stage width and height?

I'm having trouble to center any dynamic content (movieclips, textfields...) inside a dynamically created movieclip, which has a default point of interested in the top left corner.
PS: Just as an example, I have a dynamically created text field inside a dynamically created movieclip....and when I try to scale that movieclip I need to scale it from its center

I have a dynamic text field that is pulling random quotes from a text field. They are populating over a graphic of a customized playing card. Everything works fine, and the text horizontally centers fine.... but it vertically centers to the top of the text box I have drawn.Is there a way to make the textvertically align in the center? I am just learningactionscript... or re-learing it rather.Here is the code I am using for the random text:
Code:
ranQuote = new LoadVars();
ranQuote.onLoad = function(success) {

I have an AS3 project I'm working on. All the text is coming in dynamically via XML file.I'm also using an external CSS to control the look of the text. Everything seems to be coming in fine. I can dynamically create a new TextField and put my text into it. The problem is that I want it centered on the stage and I've been trying with NO success.If I set the width of the TextField to be the width of the stage, that works, but I cannot get the text to center in it if multiline is true
Code:
var serverNameTxt:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(serverNameTxt);

I have a intro to a picture of a tree which has buttons on it. The intro is an embedded flv video (not using the FLV component). The video starts on frame one and runs to frame 2. The tree is on frame 3.When I click a button on the tree, it runs the respective frames then returns to the tree. When the tree appears, the sound of the video is playing in the background.How can I make this stop?
Code:
stop();
MovieClip(lion_mov).stop();
//video Mouse Click[code].....
Frame 3 just includes all the mouse clicks for the tree.

I have installed the entire Helvetica Neue LT font family on my PC running Windows XP. There are 51 different variants in this family. While I have had issues before with Flash not recognizing that the fonts I have are the same as those in a .fla file created elsewhere, I used to be able to just map the fonts to the same font (which might have a slightlydifferent name) in the font substitution window. However, I now find that, of the 51 variants, only 21 are available to me in Flash CS3. I have tried many different solutions, including uninstalling the fonts and rebooting and re-installing. I also found a forum that suggested I delete a particular Adobe file which caches the font list

In Flex/AS3 font embedding has been totally revamped. You have to use the Embed tag. Simple embedding of a single font isn't a problem but when I try to embed multiple members of a font family, I get into trouble. I want to embed Helvetica and Helvetica Bold in one of my projects. Embedding Helvetica isn't a problem but I can't get the bold to work. If I just embed the bold font I get this error:

I'm trying to set a text field to arial, helvetica, sans AFTER I disable embedded fonts, but I'm having trouble with the CSS. This is what works for embedded fonts when I'm using English text:
Code:
.specialtext{
font-family:"MetaPlusBold" ;
font-weight:bold;
font-style:italic;
}
But then if I switch languages and therefore have the embed fonts = false I get a serif font. That's not surprising, because I can't use anything else in there... adding other font families doesn't help and "breaks" the embedded version:
Code:
font-family:"MetaPlusBold" , Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
btw, I have to use weight and style so it looks right when using device fonts. I guess I really need a way to set everything to "_sans" but not on the actual text fields themselves. That didn't work for me, because this doesn't help:
Code:
body {
font-family:"MetaPlusBold-Roman" ;
}
I have to set my text fields to the embedded font. They're dynamic but already on the stage so I can animate them easily.

I'm trying to make a Flex Tree Component display the children of a sprite in a hierarchical way. Moreover, dragging the items on the FlexTree would resort and reparent the items. I have special Elements set as Folders. This would allow other elements to be added there as a children by dragging an element on the tree and dropping it there. I have a failed attempt which works, but breaks when I try to add folders. Basically, it fails at reparenting the items by dragging and resorting folders and that Does anyone know of a component or something which can do this, has anyone have created any of this or could anyone give me a clue?

I have a Movie Clip which consists of a text-box with some text in it.I am trying to tween this movie clip so it either moves randomly throughout the animation or have the movie clip bounce off the edges similar to a standard screen saver you might see. While slowly changing it's text through many different font families Is it possible to have a movie clip tween randomly through an animation and is it possible to change the text to many different families in a slow transition.

Currently I already have a swf which is pulling parameters from a xml file. Just wondering if an asp cms can rewrite this xml file, so that the swf file is controlled by the cms. Or I should have the CMS directly provide parameters to the swf file, in other words, there is no xml file inbetweet swf and cms. Or there will be other methods..?
