Code:

I can't seem to be able to figure out how to unload a JPG image once I've loaded it so I can load a second JPG in it's place. Here's my code so far (document class, picHolder_mc exists already on the timeline). All that happens is the second JPG being called loads on top of the first.

View 2 RepliesI'm coding an xml gallery with thumbnails. Ive set a container for the thumbs and for the main image. when user clicks on a thumb it loads the larger image. Preloaders are done all is well however when the user clicks on a nother thumb it just loads in the image over the last one. How can I cause it to delete the currently displayed image and then load the new one.
would :- removeChild work or do I need to use .unload on the loader?
I am having some issues with my loader. What I have is one loader object that will load 5 different SWF loading xml galleries.It works fine the first time it loads, until I unload it to reload another gallery... then it will display its loading but nothing shows?

gallery="web";
var portIDReq:URLRequest=new URLRequest("viewer"+this.gallery+".swf");
var portIDLoader:Loader = new Loader();
portIDLoader.x=0;
portIDLoader.y=0;

I have created 20 thumbnails using a for loop.
On each loop an instance of the loader class is created and an image shown from an xml file.
I want to unload these images (so they no longer use memory) at the click of a button.
I tried putting thumbLoader.unload(); into a new for loop but it only removes the last thumbnail. How can I get rid of them all.
Also how do I reference these loader instances in general?, using thumbLoader only allows me to talk to the last of the thumbnails created?
,nm. fixed.

View 1 RepliesI have used the loader class to play an external .swf file. When it is finished I need to stop it and continue to the next frame in the timeline of the original movie. I can load it and unload it, but how to I unload it after it has played and continue to frame 2 of the timeline?
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();myLoader.x = 150;myLoader.y = 75;
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("movie.swf"));addChild(myLoader);
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onComplete) ;
function onComplete(e:Event):void{ myLoader.unload(); this.gotoAndPlay(2);}
With this code, it skips the loaded movie and goes straight to frame 2.

I have several thumbnails in my portfolio that dynamically load a .png file into the Loader component called myLoader.Followed the tutorial from Kirupa. Simple enough.
Code:
on(release){
myLoader.contentPath = "1-0.png";
}
When I (user) goes to click on a different client to view different work, artwork from the current client is still loaded, or being shown. I have the same myLoader Loader spread through the frames.I tried to put this
Code:
on(press){
unloadMovie("myLoader");
}
on each client button to clear the Loader before you go to each section, but that makes it disappear all together, than when you go to click a thumbnail, nothing happens because the Loader is gone.Is there a way to unload the .png files w/o killing the loader? Should I use a separate loader for each client? or will that just get messy.
I am trying to load external swf's from buttons. I managed to load an external swf from a button, but as a result I can't work out how to get it to unload when other buttons are clicked. Currently In the flash file I have only 2 buttons 'dutrain_b' and 'portfolio_b'. I would like to add many more when the code is working.
Code: Select allimport flash.display.MovieClip;
this.stop();
dutrain_b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, godutrain_b);

I am unable to unload content loaded by loader class.
View 4 Repliesi successfully managed to work out the loader script, and load a external swf file into my current project. Now that its working and all is well, i realised that only way to get back to 'main menu' was to close the whole thing. I tried to sort it out with a simple 'back' button but no success there. As mentioned in the title thats the options i found so far but cant seem to quite understand them tbh. I just want it to work so that I easily can manouvre back to 'main menu'.

Sorry for the complicated topic. I got a .swf that loads in other .swfs. Rather than figuring out how to make a loader for loading .swfs I thought I'd just use a simple loader in the .swf I'm loading.
However, it doesn't work. It starts fully loaded but doesn't finish. Heres the AS:[AS]_root.stop();
PercentLoaded = _root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal()*100;
[code].....
I want to have an AS3 app load images from url supplied by the user. But I don't want a malicious user to be able to load an SWF file in place of the image, such as with an altered extension "maliciousSwf.png". Well, not sure how big a security threat that is above and beyond the ability of the hacker to decompile swf, but I think that ideally such behavior should not be allowed.
So, is there any way to prevent this? When people allow users to load images in their Flash apps, do they somehow guard against loading of SWF? Or is this really absolutely no big deal?
im working on an image viewer and im loading an image to a loader and then add the loader to the stage.I want the user to be able to drag and drop the image but since it's a loader i dont know how to do it.
I tried
imageLoader.startDrag = true;
imageLoader.content.startDrag = true;
but im getting an error on both.
I have a shell swf that is loading a swf. How do you have the loaded swf tell the parent loader to unload itself after the loaded swf finishes playing?

I'm creating a small flash movie into which i'm loading in seperate swf files. All of the external swf files load into a movie clip called pageContainer_mc when their relevant button is clicked.
When testing the movie and clicking the buttons to load in the different swf files, it becomes slugish after a while. Would it help if i unloaded the previous swf file before loading the new one. If so, how would i achieve this.
This is how i am loading in the swf files:
Code: Select allshowsText_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoShows);
function gotoShows(e:MouseEvent):void
{
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
pageContainer_mc.addChild(myLoader);

I am building a portfolio, but lately I've been experienced some annoying problems with loading external swfs into a container. Everything works like charm, but when I load new clips into the container, they are just put on top of the old ones - which I naturally don't want to happened. This is the current coding I use for two of the different links. I pressume that one solution would be to add a removeChild, but I've not succeeded placing this in the right place yet.
ActionScript Code:
fashionBTN.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,fashionBN);
function fashionBN(event: MouseEvent) {
var goFashion =new Loader();
goFashion.load(new URLRequest('fashionPRE.swf'));
contentsMC.addChild(goFashion) }

I use this code on external swf's (launched from Home swf). Home swf is already playing in the background...so maybe I don't even need a "get URL", maybe I need to just bring to front (and play from certain frame)?
this code works to get Home swf but I think the child swf is still running in the background? How can I A:unload the swf this button is in when this button's clicked OR B: just unload this swf without reloading home swf.
