ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing External Swf ?
Feb 18, 2009i have a main .fla file which i shall call projectthing.fla for example purposes, and on one of the frames in projectthing.fla i an nesting a movie clip called "childgalleryholder" which currently resides in my library. within this "mychildgalleryholder" i am... importing?... an external .swf which is located in the same folder as my main projectthing.fla . The .swf that i speak of is called stack_gallery.swf and essentially the same file that im using can be found here. Now then, to pull said .swf into the holder movieclip i mention above i am using this code:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;[code]....
Now then, this all works fine (well good enough anyway), BUT when it comes to changing frames, no matter what frame i switch to, the holder mc DOES NOT go away, or at least i assume its the holder mc the point is that the imported .swf stays on the screen and renders my project unusable until i close it then reload it and avoid that frame.So i decided to set up a button which uses this code to remove the holder from the stage:
ActionScript Code:
removePhotoSlideShow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onClickremovePhotoSlideShow);
function onClickremovePhotoSlideShow(evt:MouseEvent):void{
removeChild(mychildgalleryholder);[code]....
It works fine and the thing goes away, BUT it leaves the photos in place for no apparent reason.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing An External .SWF?
Feb 19, 2009I have a extremely simple page that I am making... [URL] Upon going to the site you should get the same error that every one gets which is what is bugging me..
ActionScript Code:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
at mainbodyflash_fla::MainTimeline/frame2()
Basically, the "Gallery" section has an external SWF being loaded into it. I call it in by putting the following code onto Frame 1 of my actions layer...
ActionScript Code:
var myrequest:URLRequest=new
URLRequest("viewer.swf");
var myloader:Loader=new Loader ();
myloader.load(myrequest);
And I display it in the actually "Galley" stage by using this code on the content layer in the "gallery" frame...
ActionScript Code:
stage.addChild(myloader);
If I just leave it like this it loads fine and I don't get any errors.....but if you click on any of the other tabs the external swf overlaps what is in those parts.... so I tried to just use this code in those frames....
ActionScript Code:
stage.removeChild(myloader);
And it does make it so that it doesn't overlap anymore...but thats when I get that error mentioned above.... so basically I want to know how to remove the external SWF when going to another frame without it overlapping or giving me this error....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding/removing External SWF?
May 20, 2008I have a list of buttons that each load an external SWF when pressed. When a button is pressed, the SWF loads into a movieclip on the main timeline, and the list dissappears (so only one is loaded at a time). The main timeline moves to a frame with a back button. When the back button is pressed, I'm trying to remove the loaded SWF and make the menu visible again to load another SWF.This all works, but when I get back to the menu and try to load a new SWF, I get the error:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at CrystalBall/PL_LOADING()rystalBall being the first SWF I tried to load. The error fires like, four or five times too. I know it has something to do with the code trying to remove the loader before it loads it again, but I'm not sure how to fix it
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Checking If An External Swf Is There Then Removing
Feb 12, 2009I have checked the forums for a solution but I cant seem to find anything that works quite like I need it to. Or maybe I just don't understand?
Code:
function BiographyExternal():void
{
var PageBios:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Biographies.swf");
[Code]....
This works when I want to add a movie clip, but what if I want to try and remove it? I need to check if it exists first right?
Basically in another function I want to check if this file is loaded and if it is, I want to remove it.

Stop External SWF From Playing?
Jun 8, 2009Ive got a project with a fairly complex arrangement of menus and a narrated tutorial of sorts that is large (in terms of Mb) compared to the menus themselves. Since the tutorial is likely to be played only once, if at all, I don't want to load the asset unless needed. To do this I'm using the following code to load an external swf (the tutorial) and attach it to an mc container (mc_launch). A loader bar will be added later but for now it works, except: if the user navigates away from the tutorial (jumps to another frame in the menu timeline) the audio of the child attached to the mc_launch continues to play even though the instance of the mc_launch is no longer on stage. Shouldn't all the child objects of the container go away once the instance of the container is gone? If not, do I specifically have to execute a mc_launch.removeChild(loader) before navigating away from the instance of mc_launch?[code]...
View 5 RepliesPlaying External .FLV File(s)?
Aug 24, 2009I am fairly new to Flash and working with MX 2004 with Flash 2. I have tried several methods to play an external .FLV file. Some ideas from this forum and some from the Flash help system. Either I don't understand them and/or I am not implementing them correctly but nothing has worked. I have read of an FLVPlayback component and my system has a MediaPlayback component in the Component window. I have also seen yards of actionscript to play such files. Can anyone supply me with a basic/simple method, with code/example or buttons-to-push if necessary, to have an .SWF play an external .FLV via my MX 2004 system?

View 2 RepliesLoading And Playing An External SWF In Flash CS3?
May 5, 2009I've been trying to figure this one out for a couple of days now, and it's driving me nuts! I'm new to flash (I'm using CS3 with AS2), but I've managed to convert a template into an almost finished site. My problem is this: I've made an external slideshow swf which works fine if used by itself. It's saved as a flash 7 AS2 according to the program (Aleo Slideshow Gallery Maker) used to generate it. It's in the same directory as the main swf file. I'm not sure of the code to load and play the external slideshow swf with a button in the main swf file. Do I need to change the html as well as the swf script? I've tried all sorts of things, but I can't figure the script out on how to finish the flash to include the slideshow. The SWF files inquestion are attached - I'm just using sample iamages at the moment. When I go to the gallery page, I want to be able to click on the fly to load and play the slideshow.

May 25, 2010I am having a problem stopping external swf from playing. I am currently using FlashCS4 and publishing to Flash Player 10. I would really like to use the code
"loader.unloadAndStop();"
to stop the swf. I tried using it but I keep getting the following error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method unloadAndstop through a reference with static type flash.display:Loader.loader.unloadAndstop();
I read somewhere that since the swf files were published in Captivate (also using Flash player 10) I have to load the swf into a flash movieclip first then try the loader.unloadAndStop code.
fscommand("allowscale","false");
fscommand("showmenu","false");

ActionScript 3.0 :: External Swf Audio Keeps Playing?
May 21, 2010I have a big problem that the audio of the external swf keeps on playing on top of other swf after clicking another button.
I have about 22 external swf files that are called up after clicking on their respective button. However, the audio keeps playing on top of the new swf that is selected. It thought the "removeChild(loader);" would work but it doesn't remove the audio.
I don't know if this may be an issue, but along with every swf that plays there are 3-4 .flv videos that are included in the swf. I have included the code.
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var Xpos:Number = 220;
