ActionScript 3.0 :: Apply A External Loader To Load The Swf Using LoaderMax?
Mar 11, 2012
I have a quick question. I have created a quick gallery page/swf that uses Greensock Liquid stage/area etc that re-sizes the content upon browser re-size (keeps proportion).
My problem presents itself when I apply a external loader to load the swf using LoaderMax. I'm using the code available on the site and replaced the areas with my titles - yet when I load in browser it displays very small (the size of the external loader stage), and doesn't use the liquid stage within the gallery/page swf. Any ideas as to why? Do I have to add another liquid stage to the loader swf and attach the content?

I'm actually creating a pretty simple banner that needs to stay under 40k size. I'm trying to load and unload an external .swf to my main swf file. So far, I only managed to load my external .swf, without finding a way to make it appear and disappear at specific frames (the external .swf shows up directly at frame 1, then when the animation loops over, it stacks over and over).
I read some things about onEnterFrame and counters but still wasn't able to solve my issue.
Here's my actual code. It makes the "horse.swf" file (located in the same folder as my main swf) fades in into my main swf after it has been loaded.
By the way, I used The LoaderMax system from greensock. because it seemed lighter and easier to manage than the native Adobe Loader one.
Code:
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.loading.*;
import com.greensock.events.LoaderEvent;

I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);
This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
[code]....
What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?

When i try to load an external swf file using Loader.Load(); The swf starts playing even before the init event is fired. Is there any way to stop the swf from playing atleast until the init event or complete event is fired?

I am trying to load an external swf into another swf using Loader but I am having difficulties to do so. The thing seems to be that some of the classes of the loaded clip are called the same as the parent clip's classes. Both swf's document classes are called "Launcher", for example, also they use StringUtil (tho both projects have their own "StringUtil" class).

I have a flash rotating banner script that I purchased, and wish to incorporate into my homepage. Instead of creating a page with HTML and adding the banner code as a separate object on the page, I wish to load it as an external swf into a movieclip on my stage. This is what the banner looks like:
[URL]
I have a page that I'm redesigning, it's located at:
[URL]
I have a movieclip named load_banner. Inside the movieclip in its own frame, I put in the following code:
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code]....
However when I test it, the images load off to the right hand side of the screen, not centered in the movie clip like I want...

I'm very new to flash - I'm trying to use a pre-loader that loads an external SWF file. Its working except the percentage in the bar is actually reflecting how much of the entire page is loaded, not how much of just the flash banner is loaded. The result is that the percentage bar is still visible over the top of the flash banner when it begins to play and the percentage bar continues to load until the whole page is loaded.

In AS3 i am using the Loader class to load in multiple external SWFs (AVM1), each of which has a short animation which automatically plays when the swf is I obviously cannot control the timeline of these (i can't use local connection etc) but would like to load in the *.swf files, so they're in memory then add them to the stage when requested. the problem is that if i load them enmass. then use addChild when they are called, they have already played through and animated pre the addChild command.
(I cannot edit the swfs at all, and would rather not load them on demand at runtime)

I have the following code which simply loads an external swf, puts it in the right place and should all be hunky dory.This works:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(myLoader);
var url:URLRequest=new URLRequest("foobar.swf");[code].....
to set the dimensions of the loader so the external swf doesn't 'spill over', the result is a blank screen. No matter how high I set those dimensions it just doesn't display anything.

I got this very strange behavior from FlashPlayer debugger 10.1 r82. When I call loader.load method, no ADDED event is dispatched to the loader object. But if I open the file and call loader.loadBytes instead, an ADDED event is dispatched to the loader object. I suspect the ADDED event is dispatched because the content is being set as the child of Loader object, but why in the other case it is not dispatched?

how to apply a tell target to an external swf. How am i asking it to be applied u ask? I have a main flash movie (to be the base site actually) that loads 4 preliminary swf's. One of them is the top nav bar. Basically there are small squares on the main flash movie where the movies should load. They replace the squares and load perfectly. What i want to do though is when i press a button in a movie in one square, on release, it tells another square on the main flash to load it's movie.
I did not attach the actual flash files becuase, for one they are too big, also there are way too many layers and stuff for anyone to be able to back track through my sloppy work. I did however attach the swf's and a jpeg outline of the square loaders im talking about.

i'm trying to duplicate a swf loaded using greensocks LoaderMax but i don't seem to be able to
i'm using the following code:
private var _assetCache : Dictionary;
public function getAssetById(assetId:String):DisplayObject
{
var asset:DisplayObject;
[Code].....
if i simply return the asset from _assetCache (which is a dictionary) without duplicating it, it works and traces as a MovieClip but when i try to duplicate it, even though the traces tell me that the duplicate is a movieclip. Note the clip being loaded is a simple vector graphic on the stage of the root of the timeline

LoaderMax uses the following function in their DisplayObjectLoader.as class which is under loader/core :
Although they have put the forced GC under a Try/Catch block. Flash Player 11 still manages to crash on it. Any ideas about this?
protected static function _forceGCHandler(event:Event):void {
if (_gcCycles == 0) {
_gcDispatcher.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, _forceGCHandler);
_gcDispatcher = null;

I am using Flash Builder 4 to implement embedded text, what I would like to do is apply this embedded text to a text field in an external SWF (.fla file using Flash CS4).
My code is like so:
[Embed(source='//lib//fonts//Tahoma.ttf', fontName='_Tahoma', embedAsCFF="false")]
private var embedString:String; // added for embed font
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
[Code]....
I have set the fontFamily of the dynamic text field inside the .fla to a custom font and have the AnitAlias set for readability. The Custom font is set to 'Tahoma'.

I'm working on a photo-sharing demo using AS2.0, I would like to dynamically load photos (stored as jpgs in the .fla's local directory) into MovieClips, and apply a class instance to them. Currently, for debugging, I've imported jpgs to the Stage, converted them to MovieClips, and then accessed their linkage properties, setting them to the class I need them to implement. But for the final application all of this will have to be done with code.
I know how to dynamically load the jpg into a MovieClip using loadImage(), and I know how to create a MovieClip that is an instance of a class by using attachMovie() with a library symbol and the class name. How do I combine the two? Is there a way to access the linkage properties of a MovieClip dynamically?
