I have an external SWF with several frames and with buttons to go through it.And I have a main timeline with a script to load the external SWF:
ActionScript Code:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, loade);
function loade(event:MouseEvent):void{
[code]........
I'm trying to load a swf file within another swf file and then load different swf files from buttons.This is the code I'm using, but I can't get any of the swf files to load.
var Xpos:Number = 0;
var Ypos:Number = 0;
var swf:MovieClip;[code]...........
What I am trying to do is load 2 different swf's using 2 different buttons.
What I want to happen is when you click on button 1 it loads the first swf and button 2 loads the second swf removing any other swf from the stage first.
The problem I seem to be running into is with the loader. I cannot seem to load the images into the loader without putting them on the stage. And when I try to load the images dynamically it keeps on recreating the swf's by placing another one in the loader even though I am using :
stage.removeChild(loader);
loader = new Loader();.
I have photo gallery loads from xml file - i need to add to each picture one button loading dynamically
View 0 RepliesI've been trying to build an application in flash whereby everything is held on a single frame (the different 'screens' held on seperate layers). My problem is that I want to hide some buttons and other things when the application loads but I can't find anything on it. I have tried an onEnterFrame (AS3 addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME) ) but that didn't hide anything. I tried just having the button.visible = false but that didn't seem to work either. It's probably a stupid question, it's very likely I've missed something in the properties window or something basic, I'm rather new to AS3 and have been working on this for a couple of days now without any success.

I am having one problem that I am not having much luck with though, I would like to have the two buttons visible set to false when the movie loads, which I hope would stop the initial flash that happens when the movie loads.
I have my main SWF into which I want to load an external swf...When I've tried using the following code...
var light:Loader = new Loader();
light.load(new URLRequest("light.swf"));
addChildAt(light, 1);
The SWF loads but the buttons inside it do not show. How do I load the swf and have the buttons inside it work? Anything inside of the external swf that is a movie clip works, but I'd like to be able to keep the up/down/over and hit features of the button.
I would like to load one or more buttons at runtime into my main fla. But how? I've figured out how to load an external swf (I suppose that is the way to go for this problem?). But then how do I reference the buttons in the swf?

View 2 RepliesI want to load a sound to one of my buttons. I think I've got the scripting, but how do you put them "together" snav2.start("snav2"); - (I think)...is my scripting for my sound (where snav2 is my symbol linkage propery name)
and then
on (release) {
getURL("about_us_1.htm", _self);
}
So, where do you put the sound scripting in?
I'd like to learn the correct way to design flash sites in the direction of the Kirupa tutorial found here:Although that's a hellava lot more complicated than what I'm doing now, I see the point of minimizing the layers in my movies as much as possible.So, I've begun using attachMovie to load my movies to the stage at runtime. This has dramatically reduced the layers I had in my main movie. Now, the site has just two layers: one for actions and the other for invisible buttons. The invisible buttons sit exactly where the movie clip buttons will appear at runtime.I'd like to know how I can load the buttons at runtime, basically reducing my main movie down to an actions layer. Is this possible or even recommended as good practice?

I am working with Flash MX. I am creating a site with a Main.fla which contains buttons to load other SubPage.swf files. For example, I have a Page1 button with the following actionscript code.
on (release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("page1.swf");
}
It works fine. Now when I work on the Page1.fla, I am trying to load other Movies in the same fashion. It works when I CMD+RETURN to generate the .swf file. However when I CMD+RETURN the Main.fla file and load the Page1 file, the buttons won't load the movies. Is this a Target Path issue? How would I remedy this?

how to make buttons play movie clips in a particular area when I press a button however I'm trying to make the jump up higher.
I have 3 menu items with 3 movie clips loaded just beneath the menu Items. However my first problem is, how do I hide content or even better, only play certain movies when a button is released?
At the moment the code for a button I use is:
on(release){
_root.intro.play();
}
But all the movie clips are overlayed!!

The file I'm trying to load is called PhotoViewer.swf... But that file physically has nothing on the stage all it has is in the publish settings, at the action script settings in document class it says PhotoViewer, a .as file which I have... Its like a gallery and it uses an XML file... I want to be able to switch back and forth between 2 "Photoviewers" loaded by the buttons, only displaying one at a time. So I wonder if this affects the loading of the SWF or my code is just bad...[code]...
All of this is actionscript 2, NOT 3. I have my opening page which is one big SWF with flash buttons on it. When this swf loads, I have a action on frame 1 of my timeline that reads:It loads the swf into the movieclip placeholder and plays just fine!My problem now seems to be understanding proper syntax for button actions. My objective is to have each flash button load a different SWF into the placeHolder_mc, but it's not working.I've tried:on (press) {loadMovie("about.swf", "placeHolder");}but it doesn't work at all. I've even tried variations, but I really seem to be overlooking something probably due to lack of knowledge.
