I been using AS2 for years and now need to use AS3.
how to load an external SWF on 1st frame
Code:
var Holder:Loader = new Loader();
var urlrHome:URLRequest = new URLRequest("test.swf")
Holder.load(urlrHome);
[Code]....
I created a MC movie symbol labeled "Holder" but I can't figure how to load test.swf into that loader
I am new to AS3 and I need some help with the Senocular Transform Tool (AS3 version)
I'm having trouble with loading in an external image such that I can transform with the Senocular Transform Tool class.
I have managed to load in the picture but the transform class doesn't seem want to grab it. [code]...
I have a problem with buttons and transitions and it is similar to a problem I had a couple of days ago that I posted and that was sorted out. I have two buttons onstage (they're inside a movie clip) inside the movie, on the button one I have the following
[Code]....
I have similar code on button two and this does indeed make the buttons move into place as required. My problem is this, I need to load in external swf files into an empty movie clip on the main stage called container. These External SWF files have transitions and this is where my problem is. If I place a normal button on the stage it works but not if the button is inside a movie clip and has actions applied as above. The code next is what I have believe should also be placed on the button to make swf transition one load in.

I have created a main "site.swf" file that loads a "default.swf" file into a container after a preloader. On this default.swf file I have buttons that needs to load new external SWF files in its place in the container. All of the external SWFs contain buttons and navigations that will also call up other external SWFs into this container. So, I would like to know how to program each button (some are movieclips as buttons) to unload itself and load the respective SWF into the container (eg. AboutUsButton to call up aboutus.swf into the container). I do not have a main navigation on the site.swf file bacause the navigation changes on each SWF that needs to be loaded into the container.
View 2 RepliesI am attempting to load a SWF into a container on my main stage.
I need to load the swf into a specified dimension on my stage to fit with the rest of the site.
Is this possible?
I have tried the loadmovie code and all i am getting is the swf blowing out to full screen when i upload it to the web.
Basically, i have a problem where i have two flash modules which are an image gallery XML-based and a flash mp3 player. both of them are in their individual swfs with some massive scripting. How do i import these two swfs into my main swf without actually disrupting their individual scripts?
View 1 RepliesI have been working on a project where three swf need to be loaded into three different containers on my stage as soon as I press a button. So far all I managed to accomplish is that only one of the swf loads but not in the right location. I tried to give it the x and y coordinates wherer I want the swf to appear, but still it loads somewhere else. What can I do?
[code]...
line 2 and 3 are temporarily commented I used the same code for all three swf changing naturally the instance names, but these do not load or if they do they are loading behind the one that shows on the stage.
I wonderd if it was possible to do so when clicking on one of the options in the ComboBox, it could load an .swf into an container?
Maybe with:
Code:
container.loadMovie("sound.swf");
What I want to accomplish is to resize an external SWF so that it fits into the display object that is presented as a container on the stage. For now it show up outside of the container.
Important: I do not want an external SWF to occupy the whole stage; I have a special place (that container) for it on the stage.
how to code my button (i'm calling ImageChange_btn) in ActionScript 3 that once pressed will display an external SWF in a container (i'm calling ImageContainer1)?
I've seen other pieces of code but none seem to work for me properly.
What I need:I need to load an external SWF file hosted in a remote server apart from my hosting server, I have no control over the external file. this external file is re-sizable to whatever the holder/container size is... so, if my main container is 300 x 200 the external file will be display on that size, if my container is 500 x 700px it will display with that size and so on so on... that is the idea...ProblemI have been able to load the external file without a problem, on an specific location of my main container inside my main movie clip, what I can't get done is the size!, every time I load it is display on an specific/default size which is away from what I want.
The Code to load an external SWF File AS3
Code: Select allvar swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
holder.addChild(swfLoader);

I need some help. I want to use several swf files and have them be called upon in a container file and play them in sequence. It's a presentation that needs to play thru but still have the ability to stop, click on items, open a popup and then continue on in the presentation. I am building all the individual "chapters" and their "sub-chapters" as swf files, with the hope that I can load them in order. I am relatively new to AS3.

View 6 RepliesI am trying to load .swf files into a container and it is all working fine. However I would like the external (video) .swf's to play when 50% of the file has been loaded. Basically when 50% of the file has loaded I automatically want it to start playing rather than waiting for it to load 100%!

how to load an external swf into an empty container using loadMovie() - from an XML menu
or, if that is not possible, than to target a specific frame to start playing instead.
I am doing a website with external swf using AS2 . The parent frame (container) is resizeable, the external swf is an animation. Some items draw outside external container. The external (swf with animation) will resize when parent frame (container) resized in scale.
The problem occurs when the parent frame resized, the flash programme define the width of external swf, such as the movieclips/jpeg outside the scene. (for example: both my Container and External swf are 1024x640. However, some of the graphics in the External Animation swf move outside this area. BUT the parent CONTAINER still RECOGNIZE and LOAD the content outside the defined stage.)
i found this izzue in FLEX, [URL]
Therefore, I would like to know if I could fix this in Flash CS3 (AS2) ?
I have a main swf that will load external swfs into a container. I need to detect the end of the loaded external swf in order to start to load and play a new one into the same container. The problem is that i do not know what the length of the external swfs will be, and will have no control over the development of them, so i cannot place a variable at the end of their animation which would allow me to detect from the main movie its end. I also cannot rely on the _totalFrames property because the loaded swf might not have all the animation inside its main timeline.
View 5 RepliesI'm creating a master movie that will load 4 external swf's. To do this, I made a container of sorts by having an animated screen rising up. I created an empty movie clip and titled it "empty_mc". I dragged it onto the "container screen" but when I press any specific button to load one of the external swf's, they don't maintain the container size.
So, how do I ensure when a button is pressed for a particular swf, that it stays within the confines of the container? To see what I'm trying to do, here is the site: [URL]
Some of the buttons aren't working yet. However, the Drag and Drop one does for sure...just out of scale of the container.
I'm experimenting with how to do this by this code by using loadMovie and loadMovieNum. I believe I'm supposed to use loadMovie if I want it to be inside a container. I know the code is messed up in parts, but I was just trying to see which one gave me the best result...none did what I wanted it to do,

I have an empty movie instance called 'contentClip' sitting in an swf called 'middle' on the main timeline. I have a number of buttons to call external swfs into the contentClip but I'm struggling with the exact script. I am creating a fluid layout so I am using an actionscript file to place the header, footer and middle sections. The script I have for the buttons follows but my poor knowledge is creating a new instance rather than filling my contentClip instance.
[Code]....
So the question is - can I use loadMovie(); to load movie clip in a container from library not external swf? If I can, how should I do it, but if not - how can I still load it then?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load an image for displaying in a container which have been loaded from the Library and placed on the stage.Loading the image for which to use is no problem but algning it to the center of the stage is a problem.Now, keeping in mind that loaded images usually are placed at the top-left corner of the stage I tried to solve the problem like this...:
a = stage.stageWidth/2 (finding the center of the stage)
b = image.width/2
c = a-b (giving us the result of which to place the image)
image.x = c;
The formulas above make sence... in theory. In real life (at least on my computer) it doesn't work.Now, there might be some factors to consider when doing simple math like this...: - Can it be that the container is not the same size as the image loaded? - Can it be that I have to keep the x and y of the container (although I have aligned it so it's placed at the center of the stage)?
I have a Movieclip with a base name called 'movie_main' and class name as 'Main_mc'I am trying to load the movie from the library into a contanier that also loads in a tooltip.The container is called 'holder'this is the script I am working withvar movie_main:Main_mc = Main_mc();holder.addChild(movie_main);problem is when it loads in other parts of my menu are missed placed.Question:is this the correct script I should use?? Is there issues with loading in more than 1 movieclip into one contanier?
