I recently had to move to as3 on a project because they wanted some special transition effects but now I can't figure out the parent/child stuff as I am new to as3. Basically this is what I am trying to do.
I have a layout.swf where I load different swf files into a container called content_area. The code I use in the main layout file is this[code]...
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]...
The thing is: I have got 5 movieclips which are able to drag and drop. Next to that I've got 20 containers which are all droptargets. The movieclips are able to be dragged and then dropped on a container. So far so good. But what I want is that when I drop a movieclip on a container which already has a movieclip dropped on it, the first movieclip gets removed and the second movieclip is dropped on the container. Or you could also say.. that the second movieclip replaces the first movieclip. This instead of the fact that a container has multiple movieclips dropped on itself.

I 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");
I been using AS2 for years and now need to use AS3.

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%!
View 2 Replieshow 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.
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??

View 16 Repliesok so when I load a clip to a container it should overwrite that movieclip in favor of the new one. I've been going over the path tuts on various sites as well as variables (not sure if that would be better) so I'm still using _root instead of _global.Could the problem be putting more containers inside the main container on the main stage? I have to position things in different areas so that's why i have several containers._root.container1.container2.loadMovie("mav101.swf")[valie68 wrote]I'm have buttons that load one movie clip that controls another movieclip to load into a container on the main stage. they load but they wont overwrite each other. so they all wind up on the stage area together. maybe a paths problem?
View 7 RepliesI have begun to build a vertical gallery. I have it set up to follow an xml document and it loads rather quickly. While the loading works, the unloading is not so hot. I can't figure out how to unload the container_mc which contains all the thumbnails. I intend to develop this page in as3 primarily so that I can adopt it to other projects. The arrangement is two vertical boxes on the right and left, a text box at the bottom in between the two vert boxes, and a fullscreen box in the center. The drawn squares are only being used as placeholders for real art right now.
As it stands, I can use either button to load the gallery, but when I click the next gallery it unloads everything, but it does not reload the next gallery. I want the buttons to load their respective galleries. I figure once I set up the structure for 2 galleries, I can make more.
var Gal_Array1:Array = new Array();
Was my attempt at loading the thumbs into an array, and later clearing it but I don't think it works (I think it would only double the amount of thumbs?). How to properly load and unload the container_mc?

I have a main SWF with an empty MC holder and all of the main navigation button on actions. When the buttons are clicked it then loads an external SWF into the empty MC. I am having trouble telling the button to load the movie once and then stop loading if someone clicks on the link again. I want to prevent someone from double clicking to cause the animation to blink. *rapidly click on "home" to see what I mean.
[URL]
All of my button actions look like:
home_btn.onRelease = function(){
loadMovie("images/6661_home.swf", _root.dropzone);
}
I have read numerous threads but for some reason can't find a fix for this.

I have an empty container MovieClip in which I put a couple of other MovieClips.These inner MovieClips have the ability to expand (kind of accordeon).Everytime a new item gets added/removed or when an item expands/collapses I check if scrolling is needed by checking container.height.The weird thing is that the result is different depending on which item is expanded. Although all the items (and the expanded sections) have equal height and spacing.
