I have a file in which I use this stage resize function. However if I resize really fast (like maximize button) it doesn't resize the Timeline.
Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE,resizeStage);
private function resizeStage(e:Event):void{
resetVideo();
_controlbar.resetControlBar(stage.stageWidth);
_barlength = _clickbar.width;
_levelstart = _level.x;

I'm writing a web based flash app that's written entirely in AS3. I have objects on the screen as part of a GUI. I would like the user to be able to resize the window, or make it full screen. I would like everything to auto-scale with the resize, but also remain in the same relative position on the stage.
View 1 Repliesi saw a thread while ago .. that always position a movieclip in the middle of the stage even if the stage or window resize any1 can point me to it
View 3 RepliesWhen you resize the browser window the thumbnails rows and columns adjust accordingly to fit.I've managed to attach the thumbnails correct when my enableButtons() function is called but i'm unsure how to approach resizing.
Stage.align = "TL";
var numberOfGalleries:Number = 20;
var thumbMarginX:Number = 163;
var thumbMarginY:Number = 109;

I've got a large bitmap (1920 x1306) that my client wants as a bg image, scaled to the swf size on load (930 x 575); but that can "grow" up to its original size if/when a user expands the browser window. All the rest of clips in the display list are to remain in place (except for a copyright clip, which they want to always be 14 pix above the bottom of the browser frame. I've tried loading the bitmap dynamically at full size and then using scaleX,scaleY to set it's initial smaller (930x575) size, and I've tried just setting the height/width of the dynamically loaded image using the math of scaleX,ScaleY just in case the scaleX "transformed" the bitmap so that it couldn't return to its original size. Both make the bitmap the right size. But the resize function below did nothing to it, (or the copyright.y.) THEN I tried just putting the bitmap into the display list (both sizing methods work here, too). But even as an original member of the compiled display list, the resize event is still not reaching the target. Everything I've seen on the web says this should work - but...no luck.
Here's the AS3 code in the 1st frame of my swf:

I would like to set the stage size to the size of a random jpeg after it successfully loaded. So I don't know the dimenstions beforehand. It there a way to do that without using javascript. I know there is a solution using javascript, but I don't want to use that. I know I can set the stage size by using [SWF(width = 800, height = 600)]. But that only works before you do anything else. Not after loading the jpeg.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to alpha-tween some text, in a sequential order, something like movie titles, where text appear one after the other, by fading in, and fading out. This is my piece of code and what i am basically trying to do, is to run the first block of functions, after the other, so i can display the first movie clip, and the after it fades, display the second movie clip and so on.... The problem is that both movieclips fade in at the same time..I have tried to add a function after the constructor, that would look something like this:[code]

I'm not getting any takers over in the Flash 8 forum.I am using the snow method wonderfully created here on Kirupa and have a quick question. Currently, the movie just starts with a screen full of snow. I'd like to get it to start off screen and fall in. Basically setting an initial state for the ._y of 0. I also can't seem to get a delay working for the function.[code]

I have a number of cases where I have a tween happening in ActionScript, but I would like it to happen after a delay from the event that triggers it. At the moment I'm creating this delay by having a tween that does nothing (eg. an "_x" tween for which the start and end points are the same) and then using tween1.onMotionFinished = function(){to create the one I really want. Is there a way to create this delay more neatly?
View 1 RepliesI'll try express this as easily as I can: I have an input text box (call the instance whatever you want). What it does is when you type a word, it makes another movie clip (let's say the instance is MORPH) go to a certain frame. The code is simple, but I'll give it to you to give you a better idea:
[Code].....
check is just a light that turns green if the word is complete, so ignore that. Whenever the MORPH object goes to, say "Earth", it plays an animation and afterwards, it hit's a gotoAndStop(1); code, stopping it at the first frame. What the problem is, say, you type earth, it goes to the EARTH animation, but before the animation finishes and goes back, you type EARTH again and it skips straight to the start of the animation. It looks very rough and bad.
What I want is, say I type Earth and the animation plays, and before it finishes the animation, and I type EARTH again, it waits until morph get's back to frame 1. So yeah, to delay a function until a certain frame is reached. Oh, and another thing. Is there a way to make a button click with AS2? Pretty much when it makes contact with another object, it... clicks (whatever it does to reach the DOWN frame and stay there until the other object moves off).
I'm trying to put a delay or timer inside of a function, ie:
Code: Select all
this_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doThis);
function doThis(event:MouseEvent):void
{
[Code]....
So that where I have the function for the button make that movie clip go to frame 1, it would wait one second before going to frame 1.
A couple weeks ago, I was searching for a delay function that I could put on a frame and it would hold at that frame for a given period of time.I came close to finding it, but what I found used setInterval and I wasn't able to stop it from looping.Here is something that I am quickly starting to love, it's not mine, but I don't know who's it is, it was on a piece I was working on at work (although this edition of it is partly mine, as I have adapted it to my specific needs).first frame

I am attempting to add a movie clip to the stage when a button is triggered. When the user clicks the button the movie clip is added to the stage; it works fine, but the following problems occur:
1) The appearance of the movie clip is delayed.
2) The sound in the movie clip starts to play but the movie clip appears when the sound is finished.
Additional information: 1) The movie clip has the sound in the timeline.Here is the code:
Actionscript Code:
//Buttons: Adds movie clip to stage.readtomeShortA1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playShortAReadMe1);var playShortA1:ShortAReadMe1function..[code].....
2) However, I also want to know is keeping the sound in the timeline of the movieclip the most efficient way to use sound in the movieclip? Or is there better, more efficient way to do it?
I am trying to add a delay function to a btn action in actionscript AS2. I want to delay the gotoAndStop function.I want the attachMovie("glamour", "glamour2", 202); to play in full before the gotoandstop action say for about 3 secondsI want to be able to delay for as long or short as needed?below is the snippet of code for the btn im working with?
Code:
timer=0
btn.onRelease = Delegate.create(this,buttonHandler);

I'm trying to make a timer..
When I press a button a movieclip does this: gotoAndStop(2);
I want it to go back to Keyframe 1 after 10 seconds.
How can I get this to work?
I'm trying to load a .swf into a containerMC with a button action. I want it to delay the loadMovie action for 1 second to allow an out animation to finish playing. The buttons (next and back) are in a MC on the main timeline of the swf.
I have this code in 1st frame of main timeline:
_global.nextMC = function() {
_root.containerMC.loadMovie("images/folio/chevron.swf");
};
[Code].....
I feel like I'm close, but probably just am missing something here in my setTimeout syntax.
Im currently working on a script which will dynamically create letters and then play the sound of each letter.
I can get the script to work but for some reason it doesnt seem to play the 1st sound the 1st time I click on the button to exectute the function.[code]...
I just want to have my code wait a couple seconds to let some scripted animation finish then load a movie into a holder but I can't seem to find a pause/wait/delay function is there one and how would I use it or can someone tell me how to do it somehow thats not too processor intense if at all possible.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to delay a function which then sets the onEnterFrame of a clip The colde I am trying will not work
[code]...
Okay my_btn will do this;
image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");
gotoAndPlay(frame#);
What i want to do, is, make it wait before it the timeline goes to the certain frame#, so the image_loader1 loads its image1. I'm making it wait, not because it takes time loading (which it would not, since image1 is already on the stage, loaded up in image_loader2) but the image still takes time to show on the image_loader1 (half a second).So, I want my_btn to be functioned like this that it performs its first action which is
'image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");' and then 'gotoAndPlay(frame#);'..

I have two problems. 1) the page still will not resize properly until the window is resized. I assume I have the code wrong somehow.
2) I changed the height of my menu object to stage.stageHeight, but its now coming up squished and only about 30% of the actual height of the stage. I am not sure what I did as it seemed to be working before, but I cant seem to fix it.
Code:
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, stageresizeListener);
[Code]...
Is it possible to resize everything on the stage in one (or a few) step? I know scaling the movie has the same result, but when working in Flash it's a lot easier when you see the actual size.

They show their work as the page�s background which can be resize with the browser window, but their navigation always stays the same.I know how to achieve the resizing effect, but it resizes the whole stage including navigation.
