ActionScript 3.0 :: Swapping Xml Loaded Images To Scene Elements?
Feb 15, 2011
I have a small quick question about xml loaded images. Can you append/attach/swap the images to elements in your scene?
I would like to manually animate a movieclip using keyframes and motion tweens. For example, to have a movieclip FLY! accross the screen! lol But I want the image on it to be of one that has been dynamically loaded.
I can't seem to work out how to replace an image on a movieclip from a dynamically loaded image. Is it even possible?

I have got an animation using 4 jpeg pictures which are of course stored in my library...I use them multiple times in the animation and I need to change them from time to time but I dont want to swap them manually in flash. The ideal solution for me would be if I could write some code that is able to swap this images in library for those I have in folder where swf is saved. here you can see my animation for better understanding: [URL]

I'm working in flash Cs4 and I just learned cash and I'm wondering if there's a way to use the Uiloader to load multiple images and have them change every couple of secondes like msn or actionvillage. This is my code so far:
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
var imageNumber:Number = 1
function checkNumber():void
[code]....
I have buttons below my uiloader that changes the images when you click on the manually but when you don't click on the arrows I would like the images to change automatically.

I've created a small animation containing a few images which i have converted to graphic symbols so I can alpha-tween them. I tweened the first image then copy/pasted the frames to do the next using the swap symbol function. When swapping the symbol I selected the desired symbol and pressed okay but nothing happened - I then dragged the desired symbol out of the library and onto the stage then deleted the previous symbol. As soon as I did that the new symbol I had just dragged out switched back to the previous symbol. [URL]. I have CS4 V10.0

I wrote some actionscript that would load in different values from an xml file in order to play certain movie clips at certain times from a specified swf file. It actually works for the most part. I think the problem happens when I select a movie clip that was already previously selected. It actually won't load it at that point. I will post actionscript in the morning, but I feel like this should be a rather common issue, and I just don't know some general piece of info. I use an actionlistener to load the swf. I create an associative array that works as follows [action] => movieclip Then on an action it will make a movie clip object = loader.content.getChildByName(theActions[action]);

I have three buttons, which when clicked load an external file into a movie clip called container. The first jpeg (1.jpg) is loaded into the container when the movie loads and the thumbnail buttons have the files t2.jpg, t3.jpg and t4.jpg loaded. When these are clicked they load 2,3 and 4.jpg respectively into the container. The problem is that I can only have 3 buttons but need to display 4 images. So I want the image that is loaded into the container to swap with the one that is in the button. I can't find any code, either on this forum or on the web, that retrieves the name of a file that is loaded into a movie clip.This is what I need.
Because all the images are named 1,2,3 or 4.jpg and the thumbnails for the buttons are t1,t2,t3 or t4.jpg I should be able to easily write the additional code to change what happens when the button is clicked, because when the picture on the button has changed to what was loaded into the container, the on(Release) code will need to change too.

I am trying to load multiple images into a scene and then cycle through the images one at a time.So, here are the essentials what I've put together in AS3:First I set up a counter and a Loader
[code]....
Then, after loading a list of images from an XML file, I call a function that I called "createImages". This function then takes the list of images and creates a bunch of loaders:
[code]....
So far, so good! I now have a bunch of loaders each with a different name "img1","img2","img3" etc.

Myapp loads an external swf and adds it to MovieClip.External swf movie has elements that are placed outside the stage (they go on the stage during swf playing). But after loading that elements are visible in the main MovieClip.In other words, it looks like the whole space outside the stage is visible as well as the stage.How to hide elements outside the stage of loaded swf?

I am trying to figure out why changes to variables and elements are not reflected when one SWF is loaded into another. main.swf
[Code]...
When the main file is tested the out put of the traces is 50 & 300 which is what the variable and the bg object are set to at the top instead of what they changed to in the productsLoaded(event:Event) function. It's as if the myloader listener is ignoring changes to variables & elements inside of the loaded SWFs listener function. Seems wrong and very confusing.

I import Jpeg or any other images into flash , and I can click on it in the library and see the image, but when I bring it onto the movie scene, I just see the squares and the image is faded, it seems like it has brought the opacity of the image all the way down to zero , no matter what image type I save I get the same result, PNG, BitMap, GIF , is there anything I gotta do in preferences ?

My movie goes to a home page, if the user clicks "contact" (for example) then the value of 5 is set to i and the movie preceeds to play a small transistion. At the end of this transition there is code that says if i == 5 gotoandplay(83).
The problem is I need it to see if that frame is loaded yet and if not, just stay on the current frame until it is.
Code:
if (i == 5)
{
while (framesLoaded <= 83) {
}
gotoAndPlay(83);
}
I assumed this would lock in a loop until it is loaded,However it obviously does not work

i have designed a flash projector using as3 in which I have successfully loaded an external swf onto frame 2 of my first scene called "start". i want to include a Restart button in a later scene called "intro", which will unload the external swf as well as restart the entire presentation from frame 1 of my "start" scene. my problem is that I can't figure out how to tell my Restart btn, located in the "intro" scene, to look in the "start" scene to unload the external swf - i need to eliminate the "1120: Access of undefined property..." error when working in multiple scenes.

I'm new to AS3 coming over for AS2 and trying to figure out how to code a simple load sequence. I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a MC that is a simple shape tween that loops in the "Scene 1". I'm trying to assign code to this MC that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded. If it is, gotoAndplay Scene 2 frame 1. If frame 40 of Scene 2 is not loaded, continure to loop the MC unitil it is. Here is the code I've got for the MC in the "Scene 1"
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if (i > 40) {
gotoAndPlay("firstframe", "Scene 2");
}
}
"firstframe" is the frame label for the Frame 1 in Scene 1. This seems more difficult in AS3 than AS2.

I've created a drawing application intended as an interactive art piece for a gallery. I'd like to have what each visitor draws in one scene to somehow be carried over into the next scene and be displayed on clicking a button. Ideally, the user-drawn images will scale and position themselves accordingly to maximize the screen space. This way, if only three people have visited and drawn something, their three images would enlarge to fill the screen. If 12 people draw something, those 12 images would shrink to fill the space.
I'm thinking I might need to look at creating adaptable/expandable grids, but I'm also just stumped on how to carry user-drawn images over to other scenes. I have very little AS background and need things spelled out for me explicitly...
I'm working in CS3, but writing in AS2. On the stage, I have a palette of colours the user can choose from, a movieclip called "canvas," and another called "controller." Here's my code:
Attached to a movieclip called "Controller" is:
onClipEvent (load) {
topDog = "window1";
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("holder",100);

How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.

does anyone know how to shift all the array elements by one or more without deleting the array itself?
Something like rotating the array:

I made a .as Class where some graphical elements are spawned into the stage. However, the Flash (.fla) have some internal graphics that are supposed to be over the graphical elements spawned from the custom class.I tried to make another layer over the layer where the as3 Class is being called, but unfortunately it doesn't do anything, the graphic from the .as still appearing over the internal .fla graphics.

so I have some buttons that, as of right now, simply trigger the scene to move on while at the same time killing some particle effect animations I have spawning when the animation is idle. What I now need to do is make these events move on to a specific scene AFTER the rest of the scene's animation has played out (about 400 more frames) I'm figuring that the gotoAndPlay command has to be tied to some sort of timer variable that I would have to figure out based on my fps. Or maybe there is a way to set up a timer directly tied to a certain amount of frames allowed to go by. I'm pretty noob at actionscript, so keep that in mind. Here is the script at the point where the animation pauses to await user input on the buttons:
