I'm trying to to get this loader to unload the current picture before loading in a new one. how I can put that in?
ActionScript Code:
function loadPhoto(url:String):void {
var picLoader:Loader = new Loader();
[code]...
I dont even know if i got the title right. I am 5 days into actionscript and i have no prior training or experience in programming, flash using or whatever you might need to build a decent site, except for the graphic design part. I do however need to build an online portflio asap and things have been going great
I have a main movie that uses buttons to go to specific frames on the main timeline:
HZWA.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame(event:MouseEvent):voi d
{
gotoAndStop(5);
[Code]....
I want the current swf to unload and the new one to load only after a transition occurs. Is there a more efficient way to do this than if. switch()?
View 2 RepliesI have a button ( 3 buttons ) and each button is assigned to Load a movie. When you click one of the buttons, the LoadMovie on Level 1 is good. Now here is my problem, how will I unload the current movie before Loading the next one. I want to UNLOAD the CURRENT MOVIE first before loading another MOVIE.

I have just been to a really nice website that has some really nice use of Flash on it.... I'm totally wowed by the resizing picture effect though? When each picture loads the loading frame resizes to the new picture size.

View 3 Replies(ps: everything happens on the maintimeline)when a user clicks the photobutton this code triggers:
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("photo"+photoNum, getNextHighestDepth());
this["photo"+photoNum].attachMovie("photo", "photo", getNextHighestDepth());
now the movieclip "photo" consist on another movieclip that does the actual picture display/loading with some AS> photoHolder < loads the actual picture,so i thought ok,logically its
_root.photo.photoHolder.removeMovieClip();
maybe even _root["photo" + photoNum].photoHolder.removeMovieClip();
or _root.photo.removeMovieClip();
etc
i tried numerous other structures but i just can't get it to work, for some reasons i just can't unload the movieclip that shows the picture.
Is there a way to script each button in a nav system to unload the current movie and load the swf the button selected is related too?
View 3 RepliesI have this menu that I am loading my swf files under a as. file and linked to a xml file. It loads perfectly my swf files when i click on the buttons, but when i keep clicking the buttons, it keeps loading it on top of each other...How can i unload the current swf file when i click on the other button.? under the as file i have the following to load my swf files:
private function customFunc(link):void { var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(link); var loader:Loader = new Loader() loader.load(request) var swfContainer:MovieClip=new MovieClip ; this.addChild(swfContainer) swfContainer.addChild(loader);; trace(link);
}
and under the xml i have the following code :
<buttons> <button name="HOME" linkType="custom" link="ball.swf" /> <button name="DESIGN" linkType="custom" link="rec.swf" /></buttons>
I have a menu set up with several buttons (on the left side of the screen), each of which loads an external swf (on the right side of the screen). Within some of these swfs are more buttons to load other swfs, and the menu on the left remains active while another swfs is playing.What I want is to unload the current swf whenever a button is clicked and load the new on in the same spot. So before I was using addChildAt to get the external swf's at a certain level, and then removeChildAt to take away whichever swf it is and then add the next one. That didn't stop the sound, so I switched it to unloadAndStop and set up a function that unloadAndStops each individual swf, like this:[code]
That function runs every time a new swf is called to remove the previous one.Now I know that's not what I should do since I'm effectively using a method on objects that aren't in the display list, and it's apparent since it messes up the text later on in the timeline. But I don't know any other way to get everything to unload and to stop all the sound. It would be a headache to make specific paths for the buttons within swf's, but I don't even know what I'd do about the buttons in the main timeline that don't know what swf is playing on the right.I've searched lots of different forums for this one, for something kinda like unloadAndStop and kinda like removeChildAt, so I'm thinking I need to reorganize this project somehow
The code works but with an issue. When I load an image it replaces the current one loaded but when I alpha tween the image to zero I see both images fading out on top of each other like the first one is still loaded but underneath the current one. Any body run into this before?
var imageLoader:Loader;
function loadImage(url:String):void {
// Set properties on my Loader object

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 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?
I use Loader to load two picture,such as 1.jpg and 2.jpg,like follows:
_p1=new Pic("1.jpg");_p2=new Pic("2.jpg");
Then I add the two picture into a Sprite,like follows:
Sprite _g=new Sprite();
_g.addChild(_p1);
_g.addChild(_p2);
Then I draw a circle as _g mask,such as _c
_g.mask=_c;
I want to realize following effect.First appear 2.jpg,and during the mask _c radius is from 0 to 300,the picture 1.jpg is appearing synchronously in mask _c.
,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'm having trouble passing the url for a users facebook profile picture to a Loader() variable. I'm using a PHP file to get around the security and from the debug I made, it shows that I'm getting the URL fine, but the Loader runs the error event listener.

<?php
$path=$_GET['path'];
header("Content-Description: Facebook Proxied File");
