ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Swf Under Other Elements?

May 1, 2010

I'm working on a site which is loading different swf to a main file. For that i have a script which is calling my six swf from six button. I'm also having a basic sliding animation in actionscript when I change page.

Everything works find but now for this project i want to place 3 element which are going to stay on top of the swf. This is the tricky part for me as i'm a novice to AS3. I searched for few days and i find maybe 2 ways to do this.

the first one would be to upload the external swf to an empty movie clip which would be place under the other elements. So i try to use an addChild(); on the button action but it just duplicate the swf (one on top same as before and one into the movieclip) and the animation is not working within the movieclip.

after i try to place the swf to load on the lowest level with a movieClip(root) but i don't know where to place it within the script to make it work correctly.

This is the script i'm using:

import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
//Assign CLICK listeners for each menu button
btn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
btn2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);

[Code]....

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 3.0 :: Loading Elements From Xml?

Sep 18, 2009

I'm having a bit of a problem loading in xml into my flash document. Current my file loads in thumbnails and if you click on those thumbnails the full size version of that loads on the screen - you save it - and it writes to the database. If you come back to this application - I want it to load the photos that you saved to the stage last onto the stage again. There are 5 photos that should be loaded - but for some reason only the first one is loading. The xml looks like this:

Code:
<items>
<item id="2" type="body" src="body/body/body_2.png" />

ActionScript 1/2 :: Generate Array Whose Elements Are Each Arrays To Make Quick Loading Database Of Sorts

Jul 7, 2009

I'm trying to figure out how to generate an array whose elements are each arrays to make a quick loading database of sorts.the main array could essentially be something like "employees" while each employee would have demographic data like age, salary, gender, etc.In some cases the information on some employees would be greater than others, and options created by "push" would imply the number of elements within each employee array would be variable until generated.[code]But I get the feeling this type of array as it is currently described doesn't lend itself well to adding new elements in the way I've described.My goal is once an employee's information has been entered and saved, I can call up their info by array number like aEmployee[2], and if employee 2's name is Bob, then Bob's name would appear in the text field, along with all the other fields related to Bob's array, such as being male, 42 years old, and living in Witchita Kansas.Would I modify a multidimensional array, or do I want an array within an array, and is there a way to add "arrays" as elements?
