The above script, i got it from one of the ActionScript 3.0 book. i just work it out in flash. But it shown error 5000: The class 'priyan' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.

I was wondering if there is a shortcut so i can always set a MovieClip to display at the tippy top of the display list?
Also i understand that WebViewLayer will always display above the display list.
I'm currently working on editing the pages on my website but for some reason these errors are apearing. Also some of the text that should be on the .swf disapears. Any help will be apreciated

For my project I need to copy the graphics of a Movieclip with all of its children without copying anything else into a second Movieclip. I cannot use the Bitmap classes because I need the graphics to be displayed as a vector and I cannot use a method that simply copies the clip by calling the instructor ie:
var copy:MovieClip = clip.constructor. Is there any way to copy only the display portions of a clip into another Movieclip without turning it into a bitmap?
how i might use a movieclip as a rollover in Flash to display another movieclip?

View 13 RepliesI have a MovieClip called chipmovie which I have exported to a class method called ChipMovie, when I try and add it to another movieclip, for some reason it doesn't display.
I have checked Export for ActionScript and Export in Frame 1.The code that adds it to the MovieClip is as follows:
public function addChip(chip:Number)
{
var newChip:ChipMovie = new ChipMovie();[code].....
In the output it says:
init y = -151 height is 0

I have a FLV playing (via FLVPlayback component), and I'd like to have a graphic/movieclip display on top of the video at one of the cue points.

I have a controller that works well (play, pause, restart, and a scrubbing playhead), now I just need to display the time remaining vs. the total time of an external swf, preferably in MM:SS format (Ex: 02:36/03:51). I'm getting better with my ActionScripting all the time, but the more I learn, the more I realize just how little I actually know. Anyways, my files are setup as follows: HTML w/ JavaScript that hides the main swf (giving it time to load)Main swf revealed when button is clicked on HTML pageExternal swf pulled into an empty MC (mcContent)Instance of controller in the main swf targets mcContentDynamic text field labelled "txtTimer" is inside of controller waiting for the right script to display time remaining/total timeSo, anybody know where I could find some script to get this final touch added to my project? Either time elapsed or time remaining would be cool. I've gotten a lot of really good help/tips here in the past and am hoping to keep that going.
View 1 Repliesappears to be a problem with masking text. Trying to embed it now. So, I have a button that I want to display a label movieclip on mouseover, yeah? -and the clip contains a blank dynamic textField with an instance name of "label_text". So, I have one of these clips as a private variable in the button's class definition, and the constructor passes the button's instance name to the label's constructor to set the text field.Unfortunately, the text will only show if I actually open up the label's clip in the library and type something in. Not very dynamic!

I am trying to build an MXML application with Flash Builder 4.5, and I am integrating an API that requires the root of a display object to be a MovieClip. Personally I think this is bad design but I have to go with it. The root object always seems to end up as the stage, because of course I have to add the object to the stage for it to be added to the display list. Is there some way that I can either change the stage type in an MXML application to a MovieClip or is there some way to force a MovieClip wrapper to become the root of a display object?
View 1 RepliesBasically I want to define a variable in a movieclip and then display that in a textbox outside of the movieclip. To be a little more specific I want to make a variable be false and then when a movieclip gets to a certain frame the variable is set to be true. The true will then be displayed in a textbox on the main timeline.
View 2 RepliesI'm using a MOUSE_OVER event to display an invisible movieclip...so when user hovers mouse over movieclip it tweens from 0 alpha to 1 alpha. However, I'm having problems with it. The movieclip is a MusicPlayer, which contains other movie clips within it. When I move the mouse over the music player's background it appears....I then move the mouse over the Play button and briefly the MusicPlayer disappears then reappears. This happens every time I move the mouse to different elements of the MusicPlayer? It quickly flashes invisible, then becomes visible again and its a pretty annoying effect.
Are there any alternatives to the MOUSE_OVER event? I was thinking about maybe drawing a rectangle that covered the area of the music player but was separate to the music player, so whenever the mouse was within the rectangle's x and y coordinates the MusicPlayer would become visible.
How to have that movieClip created to be created at the centre of the screen?
View 1 RepliesI have a project where I want to display a certain movieClip based upon what variable was set earlier. I have 5 different MovieClips that need to display depending on variables.
I have the variable set and working, but how can I script this to make it that if a certain variable say Var1 is set, then it chooses to display Var1_mc?
Can I just have it load the correct one, or do I just have it change the alpha setting of the correct one?
I have been trying to display a bounding box (free transform box) for a MovieClip at runtime whenever I click on it but am completely lost. The reason why I would like to display it is to do transformations on a MovieClip at runtime.

I was playing with the JPGEncoder class trying to make an AS3 image uploader. My goal was to let the user browse a file on it's hard disk, display it in a movieclip and then use the JPGEncoder class to convert that movieclip (with the image on it) to ByteArray and send it all to a server-side script. The script (PHP) would then use the ByteArray data to create a jpg file on the server's disk. The problem is that you can't get the file path's from FileReference (it's a security thing). I would like to do this so that I could resize, let's say, a 800x600px image to 320x240 (the size of the container movieclip) BEFORE sending it to the serverThis is the code to load and display the image in a movieclip. It works for files in the same folder as the swf:

I fought with the IDE and read around all day enough to learn that in AS3, the exported class name of a lib symbol matters.I have hello.fla. In it I created a simple textfield with a string ('hello') - coverted it to a symbol (movieclip) and did the following:
made the classname 'Hello'.
Export for AS is checked
Export in first frame is checked.
Once i did all that i nuked the instance on the stage. I thought I might add some extra functionality later so I actually also built a Hello.as class, which extends MovieClip, and which lives in the default pkg* and the whole fla builds fine:
package

import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....

why I cant kill a child in my display list. So I'm working on an ad that is going to load in different swfs depending on the link you click. What I wanted to happen is when the ad loads the first swf is auto loaded in to my container. Then when you click on the next link the new swf would cancel out the last one. What I am getting is an overlap of the swfs and I understand that. I can't figure out how to kill the other children. I tried unload and remove child but have been unsuccessful.
