ActionScript 3.0 :: Image Disappearing When Add Another One To The Stage?
Oct 13, 2009
I add to a movieClip a number of images from an array, to be thumbnails using a Loader object, then into a bitmap Object, then into a movieClip object. The movieClip objects are added to a movieClip on the stage and resized and also eventListeners are added. This works fine.Next when I click on a thumbnail movieClip, I make a new main movieClip which is to store a bitmap. The bitmap I get from the same array as I got all the previous images (in the correct array position using a variable). This is then added to another movieClip which is on the stage. This all works fine but (and he's the teaser) for the life of me I cannot see why when the main movieClip is added to the stage movieClip, the thumbnail one disappears!I have no removeChilds, nothing is covering it, no unload();, so I must assume its just getting removed from the displayList for some weird reason. I've even tried using two Loader's and ton's of bitmap to movieClip to an array to try to get two copies of it but to no avail.
I increased the size of my stage to 1280 x 1024 and now objects on the periphery have disappeared. When I zoom in they appear, but when I zoom out or export the movie the objects in the center are there but the objects around the edge do not appear. If I add an object and drag it to the edge I can watch it disappear as I am dragging it, but when I zoom in it is there. I have no masks and I need to create the video at the higher resolution, so I cannot resize the stage smaller.
I took on a small AS2 project, which I shouldn't but did anyway. I know AS3, but AS2 is foreign. I am trying to add 3 movieclips from the library, to the stage. Only the last one shows up, and the others disappear. Every time I do an attachMovie, the previous ones disappear.
I'm teaching a bunch of kids to use flash at school using CS4. One of the kids is having problems with the image that he is moving with the bone tool. After about eighty frames the image disappears but the bones stay. How do we get the image to stay?
I'm loading an external .jpg into a mc. I have the code listed below, the problem is when I try to load another image the first one disappears before the second one is completely loaded. What I'm trying to accomplish is the first image will stay on the screen until the second one reaches 100% then they will simply switch.
ActionScript Code: var backgroundloader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); backgroundloader.addListener(this); function onLoadInit(_mc:MovieClip) { _mc._height = Stage.height; _mc._width = Stage.width; [Code] .....
So again this works fine, but now i have a button that onRelease has : backgroundloader.loadClip("2.jpg", bgholder_mc); So how can I keep 1 on the screen until 2 is completely loaded then switch them out ?
I've created a button that I turned into a library class and am pulling onto my stage (same as attachMovie is AS2). This button has a timeline which does a small amount of animation. In my AS, I am loading a thumbnail into each button class and am also assigning mouseevents of roll_over and roll_out to my button... this all is working so far. On roll_over the button's timeline plays to a point; on roll_out, the button's timeline plays to the end and then goes back to the first frame. BUT now my image is gone. Why? Here is my AS:
I have a Flash CS4 Professional version installed in my machine. Here is my problem.
1st - I'm importing an image to stage and set the width and height to match the image. (everything is good, no problem) 2nd - I am using the FLVPlayback components build-in from Flash CS4. It does load the video and everything. (everything seems good) 3rd - Publish the video to my local drive (everything seems good) 4th - I could play the video from my local pc and it loads fine and fast 5th - Upload everthing from my local folder to the Web server, it does display the background image but not the video. It has a white blank screen. What is going on? I copy the exact folder from local to server. What have I missed? How could I make the video to load?
In AIR/AS3 Flex Mobile for Android project.How can I capture an "image" of whats visible on the view then just save that image as anything like jpg/pdf to the SD card?Basically a screenshot on Android using AS3.
I'm creating a moodboard application where the user can dynamically load an image onto the stage by pressing a thumb of the image in a menu item. I have most of that working but what I would like to know is that, if there is a way the user can interactively scale/transform the image when it is on the stage in the swf file?
I have found 2 different Threads about the topic, which worked fine.[URL]... and it seems that it is close to what I am trying to achieve. However, the codes that they came up with don't seem to work with mine. I attached the FLA.Anybody has a solution so when the stage is scaled down smaller than the original image size, the image stops scaling. And the image doesn't distort. The eagle on the intro scales proportionately and the one when you go to campaign section behaves exactly like I would like to.I've found the website here by the way, which was the starting point of my experimentation.
im working on an image viewer and im loading an image to a loader and then add the loader to the stage.I want the user to be able to drag and drop the image but since it's a loader i dont know how to do it. I tried
i am loading an external .txt file and am displaying. its working fine. but when am trying to split the specified values, the value was disappearing. i mean except that splitted value everything is displaying... how to get that.
var loadXML:XML = new XML(); var myarr:String; loadXML.ignoreWhite = true;[cocde].....
its an xml string based. now i want to store the picture thumb value in one array value, and description value in another..... like tat..
What I need is to build a page with a list of 5 links each stating a time. These links will be used to determine bands timeslots which is the fairest way I can possibly think of...kinda like drawing times out of a hat except over the web. I want to send this list of 5 different timeslots to a band, have them click a link and see their timeslot...(ex; 9:00pm - 9:45pm) and in the meantime...all the other links become inactive and disappear. This can be done 1 at a time so I can rebuild the list without the previously chosen time slot being an option...or it can be the first person who reads and choses gets the slot and the next person to view the page would see the page without the previous selection even shown. I would also like the selection to be emailed to my email address.
_____Here's how I would like it to look..._____
In order to be fair about timeslots, choose from one of the links below. The link you choose will contain your timeslot in which cannot be changed and you will not be able to choose another link after you have chosen. These links are random...no particular order and nobody knows what timeslot is in what link. Your selection will be emailed to me.
Choose your timeslot A Choose your timeslot B Choose your timeslot C Choose your timeslot D Choose your timeslot E
I created our website using Actionscript 2.0 and on several of our pages there is a drop-down text box that has a "close" button on it, which is just a movieclip located inside the text box movieclip. For some reason, if you stay on a page for a few minutes the close button disappears. The hand still shows up when you hover over where it was at and you can still click on it, but it just turns invisible. I'm not sure what's causing this.
All symbols have stopped rendering while in the IDE. They publish fine, but I can't see them on stage.
Details: Flash Pro CS4 10.0.2 Mac OS X 10.5.8 on MacBook Pro w/ 4GB RAM.Objects that are not symbols render fine (shapes, groups, text, components).Symbols are selectable and show the blue selection boundary.Symbol selection is constrained to the shape of the symbol, not the bounds.The 'empty clip' handle is shown for each symbol(and effects / filters are rendered on it).The layers are not hidden, and switching to outine doesn't change the appearance.All files opened on this Mac show this behavior(IDE pref setting for don't display symbols?) .Files openfine on other machines (PC & Mac).I trashed the 'Flash CS4 Preferences' file, but it didn't fix it.Here's the IDE view of the stage:
I'm having trouble loading a SWF that contains a FLV movie into another SWF.
Here on its own is the SWF that I want to load:
[URL]
You'll see that the movie and the controls appear and work properly.
Here is the SWF in to which I want to load it:

If you click the white rectangle at the bottom, it will load comback.swf into Level 1 but the FLV and the controls are missing. (Somtimes the FLV appears w/o the controls.)
I found a script to make the animation follow the mouse movement and it needed to stay in fixed boundaries. I have 3 different mc 1 behind the other and moving at a different pace to give a illusion of perspective. But here are my issues;1-It works but when I open a new window in the browser the mc(s) are disappearing. 2-And I would really need to ease or smooth the animation a little. I would like the mc(s) to continue to move and stop slowly after I already stopped moving the mouse. how to script both or even 1 of these ? Here's the code I am using now;
function loopX(e:Event):void { var xDist:Number = mouseX - 24000
I usually work with after effects, and i made this animation using it.Now I'm trying to import this short clip into a website by Wix websites..I exported the movie in FLV from after effects.I Need to put the movie on the homepage of the website, make it play once and then disappear entirely so that you can see the website hiding behind it. Now it cant be anything but SWF. No HTML or anything .any way to do it?
I'm customising a tutorial from "Flash 3d" book. Basically its a horizontal/panorama scroller but I don't want to have a custom cursor like they suggest so I have deleted all the bits of actionscript relevant to the cursor.But for some reason when I test the movie the cursor keeps disappearing at randomly on and off when scrolling.Please, can anyone see anything in the code that could make the cursor disappear ? I've checked there isn't any more actionscript in the hidden elsewhere in the file.
// initialize variables var moveAmount:Number = 15; // how fast the pano will move var centerX:Number = Stage.width/2; // horiz. center of Stage
I made a 3d box using flash cs4 (ive made one using imported images as the sides and another one using vector siding made in flash) Both times, when ive finished the box and rotate it, sides will dissapear then reappear, depending on where the box was in its rotation. For instance, when you look at it dead on, the front side seems opaque, but when i start rotating it, the fron side, at certain angles, becomes transparent and you can actually see INSIDE the box thru the wall, then as it moves it becomes solid again. I am trying to make a presentation for work of a package, rotating 360 degrees on its y axis, but keep getting these odd disapearing sides.
I am having a problem with a swf completly disappearing when using wmode at all. When wmode parameter is removed, the swf appears fine. The bug only occurs in FF on a PC (and only some of the time at that ). When theres only a limited amount of html code in the surrounding page (even with wmode ), the swf is visible, however at a certain point, ANY extra line of code causes it to break.
I have just encountered a very strange problem regarding the bitmaps (.png files) used. When I view the swf movie - everything is fine until I make the browser much larger / fullscreen. Then a few of the bitmaps in the navigation menu move out of place.URL...
I have knowledge of HTML but this is my first flash project, and I think I'm way over my head. I followed a tutorial explaining how to make menu buttons and I realized that the actionscript for a drop down menu should work for what I'm trying to do. So I finally have everything the way I want it but I'm pretty sure I have a bit of wasted code in there. Now, my issue is when I play my flash and move my mouse really fast over the flash object sometimes two menu buttons appear. I'm sure it is because of the ._alpha > 0 code I'm using but I dont know another way around it. If you have any advice PLEASE share!! Here is a link to the swf file...http:[url]....
This is the code (for two buttons) I use to make something disappear when I RollOver another button:
I have child movie in a project that contains a FLV Playback instance with an associated Seek Bar component. The child movie fades in and fades out when a button is pressed. When a the child movie fades-out, the handle of the seek bar is retained. If I watch the movie multiple times, multiple seek bar handles remain behind.

Click the "View Entry Footage" button and then click the "Return to Map" button.
I have a screen in a Flash window with four TextFields(just regular text, no html formatting).If I tab from one TextField to the next, select all the text (using keyboard command), and then start typing, the text formatting is removed.
This does not happen if I click into the TextField before tabbing into it.Even clicking into a TextField, placing the insertion point at the begging of the text, selecting via keyboard, and typing does not reproduce the effect.I'm pretty sure this has something to do with the TextField receiving focus, but am not sure how to work around it as there is no restricted order to type into TextFields.
I have a problem where every time i close flash normally (it's not crashing) and fire it up again, my timeline panel is missing. I have to press ctrl+alt+t or window>timeline to bring it up again and reposition it. What's going on here?
