ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading A Movie Into A Flash Swf File?

Apr 11, 2011

I am currently creating a mockup website for a school project and i had the actionscript for the pages all worked out which functioned by changing the visible on/off properties as the buttons were pressed (the home page and it's animations would be able to be seen behind the information page so doing the pages on layers is the only way i can think of doing it)The problem with the way i have coded the webpage however is that even when the pages are invisible they're infront of the home page meaning that aspects which i wanted to add such as a hover over animation don't work as the hover over isn't registered (the nav bar is a seperate layer and above all the others) What my question was, was

a) would it (in your opinion) be better to make it so that the movie clips of the pages were loaded from the library when the buttons were pressed or to make the layers re arrange themselved when the buttons were pressed thus showing the page that i want to show. and b) how would i be able to achieve this? i work on Adobe flash cs4 with actionscript three and am favouring the first option (loading the page from the library)

Flash :: Loading Articulate Swf File Into Movie?

Jan 19, 2011

My boss made a quiz for the Flash movie I'm doing, using the Articulate Quizmaker software, and he saved it as a swf file.  It plays great in Flash Player and through Flash. Now, I'm trying to use my main Flash file to call the quiz swf file and play it at the end of my movie.  The main Flash file is set up as a swf array, calling the different swf files I want it to play in order.  I want that quiz swf file to play at the end.
 
However, when I do that and I publish the file, I just get a blank screen when it tries to load the quiz swf file and a bunch of code in Flash that pops up.  What's going on?  How can I load the quiz swf file into my Flash movie?

Flash :: Loading An External SWF File Into A Loader Movie And Type Casting To MovieClip

Nov 13, 2009

I am trying to import a SWF file into a custom loader and then treat the loaded SWF file as a MovieClip object. The code for the functionality can be seen below.

public function loadMyMovie(movie:String)
{
var now:Date = new Date();
var rnd:String = "?randomize=" + now.time;

ActionScript 2.0 :: FMX - Loading External Text File Into Movie?

Dec 5, 2002

I'm trying to get an external text file to load into my movie. I read the tutorial about the scrollbar w/ external text file but it's not really clear and it seems somewhat out dated... I'm anxiously awaiting ASDG2 coming out on December 19th. What would the code look like to load a text file called "theText.txt" into a text field called "theField_mc" created with AS itself attached to a mc called "theMC_mc" created with createEmptyMovieClip(); ? I'm trying to do this %100 AS, no instance manually put on the stage.

Javascript :: Defer Loading Elements Until Flash Gallery Images From XML File Finish Loading?

Nov 15, 2010

How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Connecting Preloader - Once The File Is Done Loading, Put It Away And Load A New Movie?

Mar 30, 2008

I have created a preloader, and I want to tell the action script of the preloader once the file is done loading, put it away and load a new movie, or even a new flash file if i have to.here is the action script i have on the loader right now. Its just numbers counting from 1-100% and a .gif clip that plays but they are not connected in any way.

bytes_loaded = Math.round(_root.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(_root.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;[code]...

Also, my preloader ends on Frame 3 and movie would start on frame 4.

Tracking - Make A FLV Flash Movie File Trigger Calling An URL When The Movie Is Played?

Aug 30, 2011

We're making a viral video which is going to be distributed as FLV movie file free for download and redistribution.

I don't know much about flash yet but I can imagine FLV is just some sort of special flash application which can also include arbitrary code.

Is it possible to track how many times that movie file has been played by letting the FLV file perform a server-callback when playback begins?

Flash :: Loading And Playing More Than One .mp3 File?

Oct 25, 2010

I'm trying to set up a .flv file that will have buttons for two different pieces of sound.I've been able to get the first piece to load and to play and stop, but when I try to load the second piece, I trip up.I'm still a novice, but do think I understand the basic problem -- Actionscript can't distinguish between one sound request and another. The question is, how to fix this and get actionscript to understand that I'm trying to load and play two different sounds associated with two different buttons?I get error codes such as "1151: A conflict exists with definition s in namespace internal." , "duplicate function" problems and "duplicate variable" warnings. I've seen some discussion on this site of a recyclable sound object. I think I'm asking a similar question, but although the person who posed that question also posted a solution, I haven't been able to make it work.Here's the code:

var s:Sound = new Sound();
s.load(new URLRequest("http://www.website.com/Water.mp3"));
wellsplay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playSound);

Then I want to access a db and get a path for the image, I can do this too. What I'm not sure about is what to do then. What I need to happen is the PHP to return the PNG to flash somehow. Can I just add the PNG to the php page and use a loader somehow? I've been searching around google but most tutorials seem to be getting PNGs out.
