ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Displaying Externally Loaded Image Multiple Times
Mar 6, 2012
What I'm trying to do is quite simple. Load an image externally, then display it (addChild it) multiple times, in different places, without loading it again and again. (Granted, caching means the image won't be downloaded multiple times, but I'd like to avoid those annoying disk accesses as well.) I know that flash doesn't actually support this. A while ago I was trying this same thing, I dug around for hours, and there was no real solution.

I have a image of a person that I would like to load a certain number of times in a row to show a total of how many people took part in this particular event. In total I need 166 replications of this image, is there any actionscript I can use to do this without having to create a key frame for every separate image?

I'm creating a movie where I need to have several copies of the same external image.It seems that when viewing the movie in Firefox the external image is downloaded only once regardless of the number of copies I make, which seems correct.In IE the external image is downloaded once each time I copy it within the movie.And that just doesn't seem right.(I've upgraded both IE and FF to Flash Player 10.)For testing purposes I've written the following code
Code:
var pages = new Array();
pages[0] = "images/Page_01.jpg";

I am trying to create an interactive 3D canvas, e.g. it loads up the person image and loads it into several - pre warped- movieclips... trouble is when I run this:
ActionScript Code:
function imageLoaded2(e:Event):void
{
canvas_wrap_mc.canvasF_mc.addChild(imageLoader2);
[Code]....
It only executes the last one instead of them all, when I remove the last one (canvas_white_mc)... it goes to the next last one canvas_black_mc...
I'm obviously doing something wrong, and everything about addChild and loading external images for me is a bit loose weave!

I'm new to AS3 and I'm having a problem moving an externally loaded image within a Class. I'm just not sure how to move the externally loaded image.I thought of creating a Sprite and then moving an added child Sprite, to which I would then load the image.But I'm getting this error:1119: Access of possibly undefined property spHolder through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite.

I am loading 2 external text files into my SWF.. I believe that my action script is correct as it works pefect offline.. However as soon as I uploaded it to my webspace, both text boxes have the "undefined" text sitting there.. The problem doesn't exsist when I only have 1 external text file loaded..
//load 1st text file
myData1 = new LoadVars();
myData1.onLoad = function() {

I coded a multiple file uploader using the FileReferenceList and PHP. It works great for me all the time on my Fios internet connection, which is by far faster then DSL, etc... So my issue kinda went unnoticed until I got on a DSL connection. Now, many of the files I was uploading seem to be timing out, but there is no indication of this. No errors, etc... just stops its progress and NEVER finishes. Tried bumping up the script execution time on the server

I am trying to use rotationY,X,Z on an externally loaded image. The image is displayed properly when no 3D rotation is applied, but does not appear afterwards. I have tried various things: loading the image into a bitmap, loading that bitmap into a Sprite/MC. What am I missing?Just to be sure, regular rotation works fine, e.g
PHP Code:
pic.rotation = 2;
....axis rotation does not

I need to be able to manipulate the bitmap data of an externally loaded image (an image from the internet), however there seem to be security protocols preventing access to this.Is there a way I can gain access to the bitmap data of an image loaded from an external source? What I'm after is being able to save the image to disk, or pass the image to the printer. (I can do both of these things, but I'm not being given proper access to an external image)I've done a few work arounds and the best I've been able to get is it working for a few images, but not all images. Even if the image loads properly and can be displayed in flash, I'm not guaranteed access to the bitmap data.

I have some problems with Bitmap displaying properly loaded image, when providing variables as width and height in the constructor as opposed to numbers, example:
[Code]....
Running the app with this code cuts away half of the picture from right and half of the picture from the bottom. Since the BitmapData is filled with solid white background, the clipping is clearly visible. When line marked with [*] is commented out, and line marked with [**] is uncommented instead, the whole picture displays and all is just as expected. The only difference between those two lines of code is, that in line [*] are used some properties+variables, and constants are used in line marked with [**].

Adobe air runtime prevents more than one instance of an air application to be started at the same time. Is it safe to circumvent this restriction by arbitrarily changing the publisher ID? Does anyone know if Adobe plans to allow multiple concurrent instances in Air 2.0?

I'm new at actionscript, so I'm making simple button games, but I have 2 questions: Question 1: Displaying number of times the button is clicked I searched the forum, and what I found was.
[Code]...
for example, if I clicked the button 100 times, a text "ABC" would appear, and if the button is clicked 200 times, a text "DEF" would appear in the same text field. I only have a rough idea on how to do this, so before I fail completely, can anyone just give me the code instead

In Flash, I can go into the properties of an image in the library and check 'allow smoothing' to enable resampling when the image is scaled or rotated.
How can I achieve the same effect for images loaded dynamically by the SWF from an external URL?

I'm loading an swf say "test.swf" which gets loaded in imageLoader , so I can get its content by :
imageLoader.content
So if I wanted one of the movieClips inside it I would do this :
imageLoader.content.testMovie.transform.colorTransform = someTransformation;
But when I do this, since the movie is not loaded the file is not compiled and gives me an error your referring to something that is not there. How else am I supposed to reference a content that will be loaded later?

I´m having troubble positioning an externally loaded swf. It simply does not respond to any settings of its x and y values.
The swf I´m loading is a pure as3 project created in FlashDevelop where the main class extends sprite. I´ve even tried modifying the x and y values afterwards using MonsterDebugger but with no luck.
The swf is loaded into a container on the right side of the stage but always end up at the top left corner. The loading is straight forward:
public var targetContainer:Sprite;
public function load(path:string):void {
loader = new Loader();

I am trying to figure out how to get the actual filename of an external .swf when loaded into another movie clip.
Code: var toTrace:String = getChildAt(0).name; trace(toTrace); That is what I have. It gives me the instance name, which does me no good, because it is a relative instance name. My situation is that I have a few buttons, when clicked they load external .swf into the stage at index 0. I need to know how to reference the currently loaded external file.

I have a page that has a table with each row corresponding to an audio file. The last cell in each row embeds a simple flash audio player. The problem is that the flash file for the player is being downloaded for each row separately and as soon as rows go beyond 40-50 it crashes the browser.
I tried using different players (1pixelout, flash-mp3-player) and the problem is still there, so its not a player specific issue.
Is there any way to cache the player so that it is only downloaded once?

I've got a class (which extends MovieClip) that loads in an external SWF (made in pdf2swf). That is added to another class which has declared doubleClickEnabled = true and I'm listening for DOUBLE_CLICK events.Problem is when the SWF is loaded my code picks up no DOUBLE_CLICK events, only CLICK events. I've tried it without adding the SWF to the stage and it does pick up DOUBLE_CLICK events.
class ParentClass{
...
public function ParentClass(){
...
mcToLoadSWF = new MovieClip();
[code]...
I've also tried adding the event listener to the mcToLoadSWF as well. No dice.

in Chrome on Mac and in Chrome, Opera and Safari on PC, it appears to be playing sounds twice, generating an unwanted echo-effect with a rather random delay(always under half a second though).
I have 2 swf-files that communictes through a LocalConnection, the main swf simply calls a function on the second swf and passing a url to an mp3-file as parameter. The second swf then loads the file and onComplete plays it.
This works perfectly on IE(that's a first) and Firefox on both mac and PC but echoes as mentioned above.
I even implemented a double-check to make sure a sound wouldn't play if a sound is already playing.
Some sample code:
var audio:Sound;
var isPlayingSound:Boolean = false;
var soundURL:String;

I'm have a flash movie where I let the viewer push a button to load an external SWF-which in itself is a video I converted to SWF. Once it loads via an empty movie clip into the main flash movie how can I add video player controls such as volume on the lower part of the stage of the main movie to control the externally loaded SWF?
