It's probably a no brainer, but I've spent the last 40 minutes or so looking for it to no avial.
I have a Canvas control with a fixed width and a horizontal scrollbar.I'm trying to find the actual width of the control.The .width (fixed width) + the part being revealed by the scrollbar.I tried explicitWidth, width + maxHorizontalScrollPosition, and some other combos but non of them hit the spot.
I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?
is there a way to make a minimum width and stop resize? I have a menu I am building that is locked to the bottom of the browser and 3 buttons on the left and a movieClip on the right. When you resize the browser window - currently - you can make the button on the right sink under the three on the left.
I have tried to get width of my thumbnail, it is loading and showing jpg image, I stuck to find it's width. ld=new Loader() ld.load(new URLRequest(obj.@thumb)) addChild(ld) ld.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PR OGRESS,preload) private function preload(event:ProgressEvent):void{ [Code] .....
i have a thumbnail gallery im displaying from an xml file and require the thumbnail widths/heights to dynamically space the images.I read I must use an event and content.width to access the image widths and this works partially..in the below code I am just tracing the image width to see if I can access the values of each image, but I only ever get the value of the LAST IMAGE in the xml. There are 3 image urls listed in the xml and the width of the last image is the only one traced ?
Code: function galleryphoto_loadDisplay():void{ for (var i:Number = 0; i < galleryphoto_images_total; i++){
how to get a movieclip named "topnav" to resize it's width to match that of the stage. I am trying to resize the width of a top nav bar across a resizable RIA. I have started with the following code but with only partial success:
Code: stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeListener); function resizeListener (e:Event):void { var reg2 = stage.stageWidth / 100;
the positioning of the loader is always as if the width/height of the loader was 0. tracing those objects confirmed that. how would I go about loading the dimensions of a specific loader into ac3?
I am creating a nav in flex that pulls in buttons dynamically from xml. THe problem i am having is setting the button width to the text width. currently the buttons are all the same width and if the text is larger then it just cuts off. I've tried a few ways of doing this:Setting button width to 100%On creation of the button try to set the width of the button to the text programmatically. Something like evt.target.width = evt.target.textWidth;
trace ("The Width is: " + stage.width + "."); trace ("The Height is: " + stage.height + "."); The Width is: 0. The Height is: 0. Why is it Zero instead of the document's size ?
I am loading an external swf file using the following code: //add close button var reqButton:URLRequest = new URLRequest(btn_close); var loader2:Loader = new Loader(); loader2.load(reqButton); addChild(loader2); [Code] .....
Once the loader loads my image, and I click on it, nothing is happening. Am I supposed to be adding the EventListener to the loader or something else? How can I detect the height and width of the swf file in the loader?
i'm trying to access the width and height of an image that is added to the stage via a custom LoadImage class. the trace results are 0 even though the image displays correctly.
//frame script var image:LoadImage = new LoadImage("myImage.jpeg"); addChild(image);
I want to bring an image in from a folder and then display this image in a specifically sized box.[code]So obviously I want the image loaded into a 200 x 200 box (the image is 1200x1200) and scaled proportionately. What do I need to do? The box won't resize at all.
I'm trying to create a simple banner ad where the mouse hovers over the button and a panel shows up over some content of the site.Take a look at the one here in the center of the page: [url]....I have two different .swfs: the container, which is the button and a loaded swf that has the animation that comes up when the button is clicked. The button is only 183 x 40px where as the loaded swf is 183 x 160px.
When the loader swf is loaded, it takes the dimensions of the button.Is there a way to have the loader swf be its original dimensions, so when the mouse hovers over the button, the loader swf covers some of the content on the Web site? Is loading SWfs even the proper way to do this? Also, how can I change the MouseEvent to load the SWF when the mouse is only over the button and not clicking? The simple code I have so far:
stop(); var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); open_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadBanner);[code].....
Once I've set either the width or percentWidth property on a flex label, is there a way to reset the width to its default (i.e., the width of the text plus padding)? I'm using the label as a renderer. In some cases, I'd like it to automatically size to the text, and in other cases, I'd like it to be a percentage width of its container. Obviously, I could use two separate labels, one for each of the above cases, but I'm curious if it's possible to reset the label to its default behavior.
I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.
My code is: Code: my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2; my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...
I am loading images dynamically from the web into my swf. I use a loader class and add an Event Listener to the loader so it will add the image to the stage when done.
Code: for (var i:int = 0; i < number; i++){ var poodleLoader = new Loader(); poodleLoader.load(new URLRequest(urls[i])); poodleLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, showPoodle); }
But what I do not manage to do is referring from the Event.COMPLETE-event to the loader object in my showPoodle-function. How do I refer to it? I was thinking addChild(e.target.parent.data) but it tells me the contentLoaderInfo has no parent?
I have a Movieclip on stage with nested movieclips inside. All referenced at 0,0. None of the child movieclips load any dynamic content, animate or have Masked Layers. It does have an input textfield in one of the child MCs. The parent MC shows 280 px width, while it returns 313 px with a .width trace. There is no code that alters the .width value of the parent MC at run-time. And the ParentMC on stage is not scaled (it is at 100% width/height)
I've one loader which load a png file. I used contentLoaderInfo to intercept COMPLETE event like this:
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.Complete, handler); The problem is that at the complete event I want to push this object into an array, like this:
function handler(e:event){ var array:Array = new Array(); array.push(e.target); }
E.target is the reference to the contentInfoloader, while I need the reference to the loader itself. How can i resolve this issue?
I have made a Flash app in which there is an class called "MyGame.Person" which has multiple subclasses "MyGame.PoliceMan", "MyGame.FireMan", "MyGame.Doctor" etc. "MyGame.Person" is defined in the main .fla file, but the other classes are each defined in separate .fla files. I have split each into its own .swf file so that I can extend the game without having to reissue the main .swf file.I then use a Loader to download each .swf file and call
var assetClass:Class = myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition(assetClass Name) as Class; to extract the class from the downloaded swf file. So if assetClassName is
