I use addChild method to add a mc. But once I did it, I found it is the top of other items on the stage. What can I do to arrange the movieclip to the bottom.
And also if some of the movieclip I import by script and some are imported by dragging from library, how can I define which is in a upper position?
function loadBody():void {
if (body=="1") {
this.addChild(_mc1);
_mc1.x=200;
[Code]...
Is there someway that you can arrange movieclips in as3? Like when you right click on it and you can arrange "Send to back", "Send to front". For example I've exported 2 Mc:s to as3 and made a new instance in as3 by referring to the class I exported. So is there someway I can decide which one to put infront of the other one? If it's confusing my goal is to at some point bring one of the Mc:s to the front, and on another point bring the other MC so the front.
View 1 Replieswhat the line of code would be-- where having made several buttons, on rollover, scales their respective image. However, on scaling, these images are arranged according to their layers and would therefore be obscured by text or an adjacent image.How could I make it so that everytime I rollover the hotspot, the image will scale and automatically arrange itself to the front of everything? Is there anything to do with its depth and setting its properties?
View 3 Repliesi have 2 intersecting movieclips.
is there a way to hit test point NOT detecting a bottom movieclip if the mouse is over the top movieclip?
I have a movieclip with a dynamic text box inside it that gets filled with content from an external source. It scrolls up contstantly and is masked, this works fine. I would like to know how to determine when the movieclip's bottom is beside/parallel to the mask movieclip's top. Basically, I want to find out when one movieclip is beside another.
View 6 RepliesI am building a website for a client in Flash. (horrible idea I know; they insisted)I am a novice in actionscript, and I can't figure out how to keep a bottom nav bar, that is a movieclip, above the bottom of the browser window so that it doesn't disappear.
View 1 RepliesI created a movieclip that follows the mouse up and down with easing, using this code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_y = 400;
speed = 5;
} onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endY = _root._ymouse;
_y += (endY-_y)/speed;
}
What happens is that when I load the page the movieclip goes to where the mouse is right away, before I even put the mouse over the frame. How do I get the movieclip to stay at the bottom of the frame until I move the mouse over it?
ive been trying to get a mouseover working but im having some trouble.
I need it so when i mouseover a movieclip text appears in a textfield at the bottom of the stage.
also when i click the mc the text stays there as im dragging it into the correct location.
I have a MC in an AS3 animation and I want to increase its height from bottom to top which would mean that the registration point should be bottom of the MC and center of width (horizontal center).
View 2 RepliesI have some floating window that opens above my page. The problem is that I don't want buttons above to be trigerable. I tried to put an movieclip on bottom layer of floating window and tell him not to show hand cursor, but it looks as if my floating window is transparent. I could still push buttons below and cursor would change into hand. [URL] go to button "ostalo" and click any of galleries. Then go over reed floating window and you'll notice that you can push buttons underneath.
View 1 RepliesI'm planning to provide the visitors of my website an option to toggle between their normal window and an optional fullscreen window. I just don't know how to align a simple movieclip to the left bottom of my fullscreen window (margin 20px). I can't use static parameters because it has to be adjusted to everyone's personal screen resolution. Does anyone know how to fix this?
View 1 RepliesI would like to know if flash can allow the user to arrange elements (in a published swf) on the stage and "lock" their positions so that if the swf is reopened or reset, it will retain the new arrangement. How would you describe this feature?
View 1 RepliesI want to know if there is a faster way to take several bitmaps and arrange them one after another in a single layer in a movie clip.
This is how I am doing it currently.
Stage 1: Import the bitmaps to the stage
Stage 2: Distribute the bitmaps to layers
Stage 3: Make the first bitmap a movie clip symbol and cut the other bitmaps' frames
Stage 4: Go into the symbol, create a new layer, and paste the frames.
Stage 5: Click and drag the other frames into one layer, one after the other.
I now have a single movie clip with all my bitmaps ordered one after the other in the timeline.

View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know how I'd go about moving MCs (that are dynamically added to the stage via code) through the Z axis?
I am using a fair few visual layers and some MCs when moved around are behind others. I wanted to re-arrange the layer priorities of them, if that makes sense?

View 1 RepliesI notice in flash the Modify > Arrange option seems to be buggy and work only sometimes. I have a few shapes on the same layer and wanted to arrange them on top of each other in different order and it doesn't work... The shapes were created with shape tool and pen too as drawing objects.
I would have to go the extreme, either I would have recreate the shape to be recognized by the program or cut and paste into a new layer and transfer back down to the single layered that was needed. illustrator has the exact same option with no problems.
How would you make links re-arrange themselves the ones on this site.[URL]

View 6 RepliesIm creating a menu of 10 items and I want to arrange their x and y positions without writing too many lines of code... so this is what i got so far.
Code:
//these are my menu items that are reference by their ids
menuItems = new Array(menu1, menu2, menu3, menu4, menu5, menu6, menu7, menu8, menu9, menu10);
//this is the function that position the menu items the first time the app launches
private function arrange():void
[code]....
so what i want to do now is lets say i select menu item 2... if that's the case, i want to move the other items down x amount of pixels by its y position...and keep menu item 1 in its default place... i hope this makes sense... is there a short way to do this to avoid repetitive coding?

I have a movie the attaches movie clip linkages to an array with buttons, the idea is to attach the clip to the stage and when you attach another clip ,the one one the stage moves down in the y position 25 px to allow the next movie to go in its space.I cant seem to get the movie to drop down and all the clips stay at the same y coordinate.I have tried using a variable to update the y value also to hard code the y value nothing seems to work below
var warnArray = [""];
mybtn.onRelease = function() {
warnArray.unshift("movie1");
