ActionScript 1/2 :: Loading Multiple Movie Clips Inside Another Movie Clip?

Mar 11, 2010

I was wondering about the flexability of loading movies into a movie clip. Currently, I am well able to load one movie into a movie "loader" clip, but thought maybe there is a way to load additional movie clips into that same "loader" clip, as i am starting to accumulate several different graphics that i need to have be inside movie clips so that i can make them change colors on the same frame when needed.
 
i shot from the hip and tried this code, but didnt have any luck:
 
mc_LCD_loader.attachMovie("hilight", "g", 1), ("header", "X", 1); mc_LCD_loader.g._x = 0; mc_LCD_loader.g._y = 1000;
mc_LCD_loader.X._x = 0; mc_LCD_loader.X._y = 1000;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading And Unloading Movie Clips?

SO what I have here is a simple menu with 5 buttons. I have event listeners attatched to each button that loads an external swf each time each button is clicked. Im trying to wrap my head around a solution to unloading the movie clips. as it is each swf is just getting loaded on top of the other one when the button is clicked.

a sample of a button code is:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Data From Xml Into 3 Different Movie Clips?

Jan 28, 2009

I am trying to load data into 3 different movie clips. (content_mc, content2_mc and content3_mc). Each movieclip will get one image and two bits of text (picture, who and bios <== instance names)

Those 3 movieclips are inside of another movieclip, contentHold. That movieclip is setup to scroll vertically ( I was able to do that myself ).

SO my problem is I have that I can't figure out how to load the data into the 3 movieclips as I want to.

I have attached my .fla and .xml file from the project.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Movie Clips From Library?

Jan 30, 2009

I'm new to AS but have some coding background (php, sql, vba) and some basic (non-AS) Flash skills.I want to create a bar chart a bit like this: http:[url].....Really would like some sample code if poss. This is my thinking:

1) Each section of the bar chart will be a movie clip, mc_2, mc_3 etc.

2) There will be an array with Qty, Type, Desc and Name of movie clip (e.g. mc_3).

3) There is a generic bar chart "block" movie clip in the library ("Block")

4) So I plan to loop through the array, attachMovie for each iteration, resize the Movie proportionate to Qty, and colour it by Type.

Problem is: (1) I don't know the right functions to use; (2) Are mc_2, mc_3 INSTANCES of my generic movieclip, "Block" ? (3) should the code sit on the timeline? (4) do i need an empty movie clip to attach the library item to?

Code:
Pseudo code:
n=length of array
for (var i:Number = 0; i < n; i++) {[code]....

The final thing would be a bit more complex with frames etc, but generating the movies would be a start.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Different Movie Clips To ScrollPane?

May 6, 2010

The site is structured with all content inside entireSite, with two further movie clips nested myMenu, which contains all the button movieclips (rollovers etc) and AS to navigate the site and another entitled allPages which contains all the content.

on entrance to the site i want a grid of images appears which is scrollable using scroll pane. I have managed to achieve this just on a standalone .fla following this tutorial with the code

[URL]

scrollPane.source = myContent;
scrollPane.setSize(556, 300);

with the code sitting on the main timeline

now i have structired my site properly im having difficulty getting it to load correctly. I have the correct instance names for scrollpane and the linkage for the movie clip i want to load. im just wondering that now my scrollpane is nested in entireSite then allPages that the code will not recognise it?

How do i make it point to it? Also, as i move between different pages of the site more content will require a scrollPane, can i just use different instance names to do this?

Or should i go about removing the movieclip in scrollpane and adding a new one?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Loading Multiple Movie Clips

Aug 11, 2010

I am trying to perform the following:
1. Create a series of movie clips on the stage
2. Give each one a specific name (i.e. movieClip1_mc)
3. Load an image into each one
4. Add three unique listeners to them (MOUSE_OVER, MOUSE_OFF and CLICK)
Afterwards I want to create one single function that will handle all the above boxes depending on which box is clicked.

Obviously the 1st part is simple enough and I have no problem there. Without relying on the "multiple movie clip" parts, I can easily handle the next three - just can't get it to work when working with multiple dynamic movie clips. Where I get stuck will always be giving each one a name and then moving forward. One big issue I continuously face is creating one dynamic function that will handle based on which movie clip the user interacts with.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Random Movie Clips From An Array?

May 2, 2011

My project has about 30 movie clips in the library. With an action that comes up every few seconds, I'd like to randomly load one of those 30 clips onto the stage and have it play until it's done.

BUT - once a movie clip is already out, I don't want it to reset or come out again. I'd like the next action to randomly call out one of the remaining 29 clips.

Once each movie clip is done, I need some action to make it go back to the "available" list so that it can be called out again.

I'm guessing that I need to use attachMovie to call out the movie clips, and an array (maybe two) to make sure that I only get one instance of each movie clip. But after lots of searching and various dead ends, I'm just not finding exactly what is needed.

Professional :: Loading External Movie Clips Randomly

Mar 2, 2010

I am currently trying to load a movie clip in the main SWF. Got that done.Then call and replace the first movie clip with another, got that done too.This is for a menu i am making, I am not too great in action script. I am working in AS2.Problem is after I call the second external movie clip into the main SWF, it all stops working.Is there a way I set this up that no matter what it keeps loading and unloading the external movie clips? This is what I have so far.[code]This starts with the "king_menu.swf" already loaded, i have it unload it and load "dqueen_menu.swf" to the call point named "load_king".I am guessing I need to have a universal call point for all my external movies to load and work in a random chain.

Flash :: Loading Different Swf With Movie Clips With Same Class Linkage?

Oct 21, 2011

I have a problem with loading SWF and access to their elements by class linkage in Adobe AIR 2.6 for Android.

Problem: I have two different .swf files:

file1.swf (in which MovieClip with name1 has class linkage 'mainScreen')
file2.swf (in which MovieClip with name2 has class linkage 'mainScreen')

They have some action script code, which I need to import in my application domain. Files downloading great. After downloading they are in differen app domains But when I'm getting elements by class linkage and add them to stage - only element which was loaded second is shown. Looks like second movieclip with same class linkage replaces the first one.

For this I'm using such approach:

how can I load two different elements SWF files, which have elements with same class linkage, or explain why I can not do this? When elements have different class linkages - all OK. But!!! It is working for web, but for air it don't want to work.

package
{
import flash.display.*;

I call the function and it says that 100% is loaded and makes the movie clip thats showing the out put invisible...thats what supposed to happen except for the going to 100% straight away. the percent is being calculated properly but i think that the function is being executed before the new movie even starts to load...i've tried movieClip.onData but it doesn't seem to work..

Well heres the code

ActionScript 2.0 :: FMX - Direction-loading Movie Clips W/mp3s End To End?

Feb 20, 2003

Does anyone have a tutorial (or steps to reproduce) showing a beginner the best method for loading several swfs end to end, so they play as one movie using ActionScript? What I need is: to have the first movie play and immediately when it ends, for it to stop and then have the second movie play, but each movie has a different mp3 sound and I can't seem to get both movie's and their respective mp3s to play as one long movie.

1) I've created 2 fairly robust Flas; horizon1.fla and horizon2.fla

2) I've made each fla into a seperate movie clip; horizon1_mc and horizon2_mc.(the last frame in horizon1_mc uses the same pic as the first frame in horizon2_mc -so that they will appear to play seamlessly as one long movie)

3) horizon1_mc needs to play using sun.mp3.

4) horizon2_mc then needs to play using sunburst.mp3

fyi: I've got the "FlashaMX Designer's ActionScript Reference" book but all I've found is how to load content (chap11) using static movie clips using "loadmovie" and I'm not sure how this applies to actual animated clips.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Random Movie Clips From The Library?

Mar 19, 2009

(****another title for this could be "how to create a MovieClip variable")
basically, im trying to load random movie clips from the library when i run the function "TRO1".. the logic behind what im trying to do is to to first create an array containing the class names (name given in the "linkage" option) of the movie clips in the library... then randomly select an item from that array... then bring it to the stage.. Here is the code I typed:

var characterArray:Array = ["truck", "car", "boat", "train", "helicopter"]
function TRO1(event:Event):void
{

[Code].....

When i try to run the function, i get the error message "Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor..."

I think the problem is that flash doesn't understand what "randomCharacter" is in the line "var character:MovieClip = new randomCharacter();"... I assume there is a proper way of writing the "randomCharacter" variable so that i can use it in the succeeding line...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading JPG Images Into Movie Clips, Then Drawing A Border Around Them?

i am loading JPG images into movie clips, then drawing a border around them with this code:

Code:
var frameColor:Number = 0xffffff;
var lineThick:Number = 1;[code]..............

i am resizing the movieclips (and thus the contained pictures) down to 160 x 120, but those pixel values didn't work in my lineTo statements. i multiplied them by 3, using 480 and 360 and it works better. however, the behavior isn't consistent. i am attaching a picture so you can see how the border is too tall on some of the images.so, is there a better way to use pixel dimensions with lineTo? does the scaling factor between flash vector units and pixels change between movieclips depending on what content i load into the movie clip?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Loading External Movie Clips And Duplicating Them

Jun 7, 2010

I'm trying to create a user customisable touch screen interface - in which people can include their own button styles (currently created as movie clips). I have a working XML file that names the style / external swf name for each button but I don't seem to be able to then duplicate that movie clip for say use in 10 separate buttons. When I try this only the last one created is displayed. I can of course separately load the file 10 times but that is yuk.

I hope to be able to position the timeline through n states in each loaded clip independently and also have one click handler that can return me an identifier of which was clicked - I know how to loop/create dynamic instance names.

<edit> I can do this successfully from the library - just not as an external file load - where the MC won't be in the library at all.

Code:
//Initialize variable to hold target data
var targetClip:MovieClip;
//********* Add a "MovieClip" variable that will reference the root of the loaded clip:**********

Dynamically Loading Images From A JSON Feed Into Individual Movie Clips

May 22, 2009

I'm dynamically loading images from a JSON feed into individual movie clips and then adding the clips to the stage(both by addChild)--basically creating thumb tiles. I've added a click handler to do something when the MC is clicked. WHAT'S MY PROBLEM: The problem I have is that the MC is clickable, but the content is not. For instance, the clip has a white box in it, and the loaded image is made slightly smaller and centered to give a white border around the pic. An empty clip loaded to the stage works fine, and the white border around the image is clickable, but the image is not.
