View 1 RepliesActionScript 1/2 :: Attached MovieClip Under Mask Disappears
Jan 23, 2010I posted this in Kirupa but unfortunately i did not receive any response from the community for 4 days now. I'm thinking perhaps somebody here can answer my long awaited explanation for this bug or phenomenon. I have a shape animation on the timeline from one keyframe to the next (3 keyframes). There is an orange movieclip under that mask with instance name "container". Now if i attempt to attach a movieclip to it at runtime, it will automatically get removed when it reaches the 2nd shape tween keyframe. All my code is in frame 1. Isn't that illogical? I know it works if i place it into a movieclip. I need an explanation to this (if its a bug) and a workaround other than repetitively attaching it from frame to frame.

View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Mask In Attached Linkage Doesn't Work?
Mar 2, 2009I'm dynamically attaching a movieclip linkage to my root timeline. The linkage has two layers inside -- a graphic shape mask and an empty movieclip for loading images. The empty movieclip is masked by the graphic shape mask.I'm using a MovieClipLoader object to load and manage the preloader for the empty movieclip when it loads images.Why does the mask sometimes work and sometimes not? Would the image type have anything to do with it? Or is it something to do with the act of attaching the linkage and then loading images into the empty movieclip contained therein?
View 5 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Alpha Mask - Area Of The Loader Outside Of The Mask Will Visible When The Mouse Is Down
Sep 10, 2010I have a startDrag function set up on a loader and mask that when the mouse is down on the loader it drags, when not it doesn't. There is also 2 buttons that control whether mask1 or mask2 is used. What i would like however is when the mouse is down - the area of the loader outside of the mask is visible but only by about 10/20% alpha, that way the user can see where all the image is while dragging. Is this possible? Full code can be seen below and i have attached the zip with the .fla file:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Scriptable Mask - Large Mask Behind The Whole Of Flash Site?
Aug 19, 2003 what i am doing is to make something along the lines of the "scriptable mask" tutorial Inigo was kind enough to put up.My idea is to have a large mask behind the whole of my flash site, this masks a colour image with a black & white one (nothing tricky). The image I am using is actually 5 separate images combined, and each is a pic of certain parts of the site.I also have a very basic set of buttons along the bottom... each corresponding to each section.
All I want is to set it up so that when I mouse over the buttons, the _x of the mask moves to correspond with the correct image... really very basic... or so I thought .If anything it should be easier to do than what is in Inigo's tut (where he uses the _x of the mouse to move the mask)... i just cant seem to get it to work with a nice easing effect (its easy to get the mask to simply snap to each coordinate, but I need it to smoothly move).
Create Own Mask Around A Jpg Image By Drawing Around It On The Mask Layer
Dec 4, 2009maybe point me towards a better way to mask. png file is way too big. I have been using the mask layer option to create my own mask around a jpg image by drawing around it on the mask layer. There has to be a fetter and faster way to do this. Is it possible to maybe have a specific color range have an alpha value of 0. Similar to green screening whereas If I put the item I want to clip on a green background flash will auto take out the green for me. and by auto I mean action script maybe. I think this can be done but im not finding it.
how are these guys clipping these images [URL] they have the movie clips set up where the black background on the 3 layers of shoes is getting masked out. When I go into the shoe movie clips I see there is a black background but it just disappears when I go back to main timeline.

Flash :: Load One SWF With Attached .as Into Another?
May 25, 2011I'm trying to set up a proof-of-concept of loading one SWF into another SWF for skinning. The set-up is this: app.fla, which has an attached ActionScript class, AppMain.as skin.fla, which contains UI components AppMain.as will obviously contain all of the application's logic; I then want to be able to affect the UI components contained within the loaded skin file based on instance names defined in that particular skin.
So for example, if I have a TextField with an instance name of myTextField I'd like to be able to set the text property of that text field programmatically in AppMain.as. The exported app.swf to load a skin file based on a flashvar parameter would be loaded into an HTML document that looked like this:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Instance Name Of Attached Mc?
Jul 4, 2009I just moved to AS3 and I learnt how to attach a movieclip.
ActionScript Code:
var attachedMC = new (getDefinitionByName(PageName) as Class)();
holder.addChild(attachedMC);
Where PageName is the string containing the Class of the movieclip in the library and holder is the instance name of the MC to be attached to.
But what instance name do I use to refer to the movieclip that got attached?
In AS2, the code would have gone like this
ActionScript Code:
holder.attachMovie(PageName, "instanceName", 1);
The instance name part of the code seems to be missing in AS3. SO how do I refer the the attached MC or "child"?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing The Attached Movieclips?
Jan 6, 2012I'm creating a highscore list like this:
code: function loaderCompleteHandler(e:Event):void {
var scoreXML:XML=new XML(e.target.data);
var playerResult:MovieClip;
[code]....
I have a MovieClip with the linkage name of "playerResult" in the library. For every loop it takes the scores+names from the xml and displays them by creating a new instance of "playerResult" and attaches them one by one under each other.I need to be able to remove this highscore when it's not longer needed, thus (the most important part) freeing up memory. So I can then use the same code to show the scores again without doubling the memory it uses every time.
code: function loaderCompleteHandler(e:Event):void {
var scoreXML:XML=new XML(e.target.data);
var playerResult:MovieClip;
[code]....
... so I now have a name for each instance (playerResult0, playerResult1...) but still can't come up with a way to remove them.
The scores are displayed like this:
1 name score
2 name score
etc...
