View 1 Repliesa movie clip symbol is designed and subclassed in Flash, but get instanced and addChild-ed in AS3. It works well as long as I don't change it's width/height property (scaling works too), but if i do, it disappears
View 2 RepliesI develop some components where I use movie clips as skin. In the scene I have 2 movie clips with width 200px and height 100px, one of them I change the width to 200px and height to 100px, well, it should remain the size as nothing happens but it doesn't. The movie clip that I change the size through as3 it's actually getting smaller, and more strange, it only happens when the movie clip has an Outline. The file is attached. It's Flash CS4.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to draw a hairline stroke 200 px long like in the picture (3 colors). I have tried with this but i am not getting the same results:
Code:
var s:Sprite = new Sprite();
s.graphics.lineStyle(0 );
s.graphics.lineGradientStyle("linear", [0x111111, 0xcccccc,0x111111], [100,100,100], [0,128,255]);
s.graphics.lineTo(200,0);
addChild(s);
I have a movieclip 'cursor' with in it two rectangles. One of them is dark and one is light, so the cursor is blinking. Now, when I want to change the width of this cursor to 150 (where it was 30 before), I do:
Code:
cursor.width = 150;
This not only changes the width of this movieclip, but also the weigth of the (whole) stroke of the two recangles. How can I prevent this strokechange from happening?
Is there any possibility to change screen width and height not in Flash ( in Properties ), but in Code [ any AS3 line? ].

When the Tween takes place though it not only changes the width, it changes the height as if it were scaling it up in both directions. Why does this behavior take place? And how can I get it so that only the width changes? I have also tried using scaleX as the property but it does the same thing.
how can I change the height and width of stage dynamically. I tried it with the following code:
Stage.height = 250;
Stage.width = 250;
during the run time. Initially the Stage is at a height and width of 370 and 450 respectively. Also when I tried to trace the height and width of Stage after resizing the stage width and height, its showing the old value of width and height. That means the width and height not chnaging.
I am trying to change the width and height of instances of a symbol programmatically. Basically, the symbol contains a few colored rectangles, a bitmap, and some text. I want to change the height and width of each instance of the symbol based on how low the text string is that is in the instance's text field, but the bitmap's size should always stay the same, 24x24 pixels.[code]The problem is that using this code seems to scale everything up, including the bitmap. I have tried to programmatically add the 24x24 pixel bitmap to the symbol programmatically after I changed the height, but it still seems to be scaled..
View 1 RepliesI thought I had a handle on AS3, DisplayObjectContainers, etc. but this basic thing is really confusing me: changing the width/height of a sprite does not affect it's visual contents - either graphics drawn within it or any children it may have.[code]...

View 1 RepliesI 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 have tried the following and had no luck:
stage.stage.stageWidth
root.stage.stageWidth
parent.stage.stageWidth
MovieClip(root).stage.stageWidth

View 2 RepliesI would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

I have a movieclip (swc) , I am doing the following :
_visualItem.bgMiddle.height = 200;
bgMiddle is an independant clip only has a single shape in it. On debugging the height remains the same (2.2) but the width changes to 5111. Haven't been able to track it down.
I'm making a little photo album in flash, where my pictures are being added in a movie clip. The problem I have is when I add a with and height to my movie clip, I can't see it anymore. It's probably a stupid mistake, but I've been searching for an solution these past days, but I didn't find any.
(when I don't add the width and height, I can see the pictures) Here's a little part of the code.
Code:
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.width=300;
mc.height=100;

I'm making a program like roomplanner at [url]..
I need to know how to change the width and the height of the movie clip. I know how to scale x and y but that doesn�t work in my case because i have for example an object which height is 75 pixels and width is 137 pixels. X scale and Y scale would work if my objects were 100 pixels width and 100 pixels height.
I'm loading a flash MovieClip (Test.swf) like below. The problem is I can't read the size of mc (mc.width and mc._width both return 0, for the height as well), but I need to scale it. I have the stage size, I can scale, but I don't have the size of Test.swf, so I can't scale it to fit into the stage... ActionScript2, not actionscript3. If it was 3, I could get the value from the loader, but with as2??? The problem is I don't have control over the swf I load, so I can't put it's dimensions in the first frame...

I've a movieclip in my library ready for export to ActionScript. It's width and height is (723, 614.05), but I tried to put it on stage manually and check. When I get the item from library in ActionScript i get that's it's width and height is (743.65, 626.75). How can that be possible?
View 9 RepliesI know there have been several similar posts but of those I've read, there hasn't been an easy straight forward solution that will work dynamically. The solutions posted have ranged from
super.width = wvalue;
super.height = hvalue;
which I did not get to work, and it seemed from the response to the suggestion neither could the person who originally asked for help, to suggestions about using scale, all the way to having to create an event handler that will get notified after the load, which I guess would work once but wouldn't work dynamically.
Here is the scenario -
I want to change width and height for a MovieClip, but I dont want to scale it, (its more like cropping the MovieClip, not shrinking or stretching) and I want to do this several times not just after the load of the MovieClip.
So my questions are:
1) Is there anyway to do this that really works, that hopefully isn't totally convoluted?
2) Why is it so hard to do this in Flash/AS3?
How can I actionscript the maximum height (and width) of a movieclip??
View 2 RepliesI use FlashMX 2004. how to change the width and height of the MovieClip when it loads to the stage. I used the following method
instanceName._height=value
instanceName._width=value
but when I do like this movie does not load. when I do this method to vary x and y position of the movie it works.
I have created a slider to control the width and height of a movieclip. However the numbers currently go the opposite way I would like them to go. currently if the slider is at the top that counts as 0 because of the y coordinate and the bottom counts as 200. what type of equation would I need to flip this so if the slider is at the top it's 200 and at the bottom it is 0?
Code:
zoom_mc.slider_mc.onPress = function() {
this.startDrag(false, 0, 0, 0, 192);
};
