ActionScript 3.0 :: Unloading Movie Clip In Flex?

Dec 16, 2009

I'm using Flex to load external swfs, and casting them as movie clips so I can communicate with them. However, I'm having difficulty unloading the movieclip. I've tried setting loaded_MC = null, but it still continues to run in the background.

public var loaded_MC:MovieClip;
private function init():void
{
loaded_MC = MovieClip(swfLoad.content);

ActionScript 1/2 :: Unloading A Movie Clip?

Jan 12, 2011

I can load and unload a movie via the "loadClip" and "unloadClip" methods. So far, so good. However, I notice that the movie is not altogether "unloaded".Some of it continues to run even though the visible movie is gone. I know this because there is an "interval" timer started within the movie and I am seeing the effects of that "thread" (ok, maybe its not a thread but thats what it seems like to me. Process, maybe?). Anyway, even though I have used the unloadClip method to unload the clip, I have a feeling that there is a lot more I should be doing to clean up the mess I have left behind. Seeing the effects of the still-running interval timer, I now have visions of memory leaks not far behind.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Unloading The Dynamic Movie Clip?

Dec 12, 2006

I'm loading jpg's externally into a dynamically created movie clip that then get clicked on to show a larger image. I'd like to be able to click on that MC/larger image to close it once it's loaded. Here's the code I'm using to create the MC and for the life of me can't figure out how to do it after extensive searching on the subject. Basically I'm wanting to go back to the "pre-click" state of the movie when it first loads before any clicking happens.

Code:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("large_mc", 1);
with (_root.large_mc){
_x=225;
_y=92;

but it doesn't work...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Unloading Movie Clip From Root Container?

Aug 5, 2008

I've created a main page with my main links on top, and a container as my body.I load my pages with this action to the container.

on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "production";
container.loadMovie("production.swf");

[code]....

Inside the production.swf files I've created a gallery with a MovieClip that loads from my library to a container1 inside the production.swf. In the galleryMC(from library), Ive created a close button to unload it from the container1. It works fine from my production.swf file, but when it loads to the main page it doesn't unload. This is the ActionScript that I have to unload the Movie Clip.

on (release) {
this._root.container1.unloadMovie();
}

Flash :: IDE - Swf Movie Not Unloading

Apr 3, 2009

I inherited ,from a previous employee, a flash file and there is a bug which consists of a swf movie not unloading. I have attached the link to the website below. To be specific, after the publications button swf is loaded into the main file, you can never get it to unload fully. If any other buttons are clicked and their swf files are loaded, the buttons for the publications remain in the file ( not visually but the hit area remains). I just need to know how to get them to fully unload.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using PrevFrame For Unloading Movie?

Nov 25, 2005

I read a tutorial about complex buttons with prevFrame function on this site. I was wondering how I could use this function to unload my movie. I have a movie (swf) that loads itself into another movie. Now what I would like form this movie to do is to kindly unload itself the way it loaded in. This should happen once a button on the main (root) timeline would be pressed. I already have all the buttons set up, but I have no idea how to write a code that would send my movie backwards. I is simply put a this.onEnterFrame = prevFrame; on the last frame, but now there is a problem. I have to somehow stop this movie until a button is pressed. And only when a button is pressed it should execute prevFrame.

I am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

ActionScript 2.0 :: DropTest - Check And See If The Dragged Movie Clip Is Completely Within The Bounds Of Another Movie Clip

Jan 11, 2010

I'm creating a small drag & drop activity, and I want to be able to check and see if the dragged movie clip is completely within the bounds of another movie clip (or at least in the bounds of a certain x/y zone on the main stage. I can't use dropTest because it returns true if any tiny bit of the movie clip overlaps with the dropTest movie clip.

I also thought of something that just checks the x/y coordinates of the dragged movie clip, but I'd need this to reflect a range of values rather than one coordinate. For instance, I'd want to return true if the movie clip's x is between 50-60 AND the y is between 50-60. I'm attaching a small graphic to illustrate in case my explanation isn't clear enough [URL]

ActionScript 3.0 :: MCs Classes - Can't Send An Event From The Eagle Movie Clip Or The T2D Movie Clip To Tell The Other To Fade Out

Nov 5, 2010

There is a bad gap in my knowledge with Event Dispatch and Event architecture, and this problem proves it. I've been getting nowhere on this problem for two days, I've posted everything to my Flash site. Go here, please: [URL] Click on "Flash Banners" The two thumbnails represent two different classes. Each class is identical. Both are "extends Movie Clip" classes. Tweeners of various types control the hover and click methods. URL Loaders load the thumnails which I then wrap in MC's and make them buttonMode = true, etc. Hover and click to load the Banners on the thumbnails.

I can't send an event from the Eagle movie clip or the T2D movie clip to tell the other to fade out. Both Banner classes are instantiated through a separate Base class. I'm sure this has to be an Event Dispatch from one MC to another and that it can't be done by the Base class. how I can send an Event or Event Dispatch and what the code structure is so one movie clip can in one class can tell the other movie clip in the other class to disappear while it's neighbour is playing. I'm happy to post code or explain / clarify anything that's not clear.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clip On Main Timeline Receiving Input From Nested Movie Clip

Feb 23, 2011

I've got a main timeline .swf file called "blank.swf" which contains nothing but two blank movie clips one called called "pproduct", the other called "ppalette". In the script frame of this main timeline I use the simple "Loader = new Loader();" method to load a URL of an .swf file into the "ppalette" movie clip. The "ppalette" movie clip contains several color chip buttons, each of which use the same Loader method above to load an external .swf into a clip. Here's what I want to do: let those color chip buttons, when the "blank.swf" file loads, be used to load an .swf movie into the "pproduct" clip on the main timeline. I'm wanting to be able to swap depths with various movie clips which will take out the movie which has the palette, but I want whatever that palette has loaded in the original "pproduct" clip to stay there.

IDE :: Unloading A Movie - Can't Put The LoadMovieNum In 0 Level Because It Would Replace The Main Stage

Feb 26, 2009

I can't seem to unload a movie, I've tried every possible actionscript code and still it won't go away. My objective is to run in the main stage a sub menu and for that I've done sub pages each one with a previous and next button (inside the movie that will be loaded), and that's the catch. I can't put the loadMovieNum in 0 level because it would replace the main stage. So I'm trying to do on the button:

on (release) {
unloadMovieNum(1); // it was loaded into level 1
loadMovieNum("new_item.swf",1); // he overlays both movies with transparency
}

Is there anyway to remove the actual movie and replace it with the new one?
