ActionScript 3.0 :: Load SWF Into Level And Setting Height/width/location?
May 30, 2011
I gave up on Flash heavy coding when it switched to AS3. Always thought it was less intuitive, longer, and a brand new language and I got tired of trying to keep up when most of my clients did not want to pay for a full flash site. But I got this client...
Here's the problem, I can load a swf into my main stage or into an MC , but I cannot find out anywhere how to set parameters or load into a level so it doesn't replace the current material or fix to a size that doesn't block my other material.[code]...

Is there a way to retrieve and set the height and width of an FLV/Playback object via actionscript? I was hoping I could interact with the values via simple _height and _width properties, but that seems to offer all kinds of unexpected results in Flash (like reporting width in the thousands when the width is actually under 300, etc... height seems much closer to reality, but still off.)

I built out a scrolling Flash application that currently resizes the browser to whatever the full-screen res of the user's monitor is... I'm kind of indifferent about it.Anyhow, I'd like to be able to set the browser size to a specific height / width instead of taking up 100% of the user's screen real-estate.

I know this might seem like such an easy issue and I can't understand why I cant figure it out but none the less I can't and I've just about given up. Here's the issue:
I have a sprite container which is supposed to hold a bunch of thumbnails to videos. I am able to populate the container with all the videos and the whole works but obviously if I add a bunch of videos its going to exceed the size of the flash document so I need to add a UIScrollBar (which I did) now the scrollbars target is set to the container but isnt allowing me to scroll and if im correct this is because the container doesnt have a set height. So Im trying to set the height of this container but the second I try setting the height or even width all my thumbnails I used to be able to see are gone! It's as if the size is being set to 0 when its not I've even tried to set it to a specified size just to test and nothing.

I have been given the seemingly simply task of resizing a Group container by setting width and height explicitly in response to user interaction. However, changing these values have no effect on the size of the container at all. Changing scaleX and/or scaleY will change the size of the container just fine, but this is not the behavior I am after.I have tried overriding updateDisplayList() to set a specific width and height, but this has not yielded the desired results.

I have a movieclip with the instance name of "container_mc" that I am loading a external swf file into.When I trace(container_mc._width) after the preload it returns 0.Is there any way to tell the movieclip to stay at a width of 760px and a height of 460px regardless of the content that is loaded?Reason being, I then have a function that positions the container_mc movieclip in the center of the stage based on the Stage.width/height..The only way I have been able to get this to work thus far is to have a 760px by 460px square shape, position the movieclip.. then load the content to replace the square shape however I'd rather be able to default everything without having to do that.

I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.
My code is:
Code:
my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2;
my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...
I have tried the following and had no luck:
stage.stage.stageWidth
root.stage.stageWidth
parent.stage.stageWidth
MovieClip(root).stage.stageWidth

I would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

I'm loading an external video player SWF into a MC, but once loaded the size of the SWF is always wrong and for some reason takes up the whole stage area.
So i want to set the width and height of the SWF thats loaded. If i set the MC width/height then once the SWF loads it's no longer that size. So i have to have some kinda code, that says once the SWF has been loaded, to resize it to 360x240 pixels. [code]...

We sometimes get swfs at my job that doesn't match our standard banner width and height. We only have the swfs and not always able to get hold of the *fla.So we want to load the swf into our different standard banner size and show it.
How do I load the swf into a new *fla that has my standard stage width:995 and stage height: 150? Without distorting the swf to much. Swf could be loading into a MC or loading directly onto stage.I tried the loadMovie and loaded the swf into a empty MC. But I can't set the MCs width and height.

I have code here that allows a user to load an image from their local machine to the SWF (using FileRerence). The movieclip is 500x400 in size and I need the width of the selected image to resize to 500, and crop off any height beyond 400.

I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically load JPEGs and read their width/ height attributes before they actually land on stage. I have tried it once wherein I hide the targetted movie clip and try to utilize the INIT functin to check for initialize. This works pretty good except that a little dynamic animation I need tends to act a little later than it should creating a bug if u proceed immediately.

Is their a way to determine the height and width of your flv f4v file after you dynamically load it?
Couldn't find any properties in the loader or netstreaminfo that I could grab the info from.

How to set a Spark List height to the height of its content?Tried this:
var lastRow:IVisualElement =
myList.dataGroup.getElementAt(myList.dataGroup.numElements - 1);
myList.height = lastRow.y + lastRow.height;
It works in case of a single item, but lastRow is null in case of more items.

I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?

I am creating a nav in flex that pulls in buttons dynamically from xml. THe problem i am having is setting the button width to the text width. currently the buttons are all the same width and if the text is larger then it just cuts off. I've tried a few ways of doing this:Setting button width to 100%On creation of the button try to set the width of the button to the text programmatically. Something like evt.target.width = evt.target.textWidth;

I'm doing a bigger aplication in flash (as2).Image, there is a main "home" flash with several menu buttons.Clicking these buttons, I load external swf into an empty container in this "home" flash.[code]clicking buttons in this second level, will load external movies into an empty container in this SECOND LEVEL swf.This works fine, but now, coming to the THIRD LEVEL (don't think there will be more in the future) problems come up, some scripts won't work.Now (I'm a as2-beginner) I think, loading external swf ALLWAYS into containers in the first "Home" flash should solve the problem.But I don't know, how to load an swf from the third level into a container in the first "home" level.In the "home" level, I have a "close" button, that will unload the container content.I need to go to a certain scene "content_2" in the home swf, too.

Once I've set either the width or percentWidth property on a flex label, is there a way to reset the width to its default (i.e., the width of the text plus padding)? I'm using the label as a renderer. In some cases, I'd like it to automatically size to the text, and in other cases, I'd like it to be a percentage width of its container. Obviously, I could use two separate labels, one for each of the above cases, but I'm curious if it's possible to reset the label to its default behavior.
