View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a preloader for a little flash project that involves re-assembling a load of rectangles to make up a pattern.Idea is that instead of the usual load bar i wanted to make use of this pattern that is relevant to the project and have it rebuild it self with these rectangles flying in from the side. So far I have got the tweening sorted using the tween class and staggered the 42 (yes took a little while, probably an easier way so let me know on that also) rectangles using 'setTimeout' so it releases each 100milliseconds after the one one before it. This probably the wrong way to do it but i wanted to check how it looked and this was the one way i knew how to do it.
I want to make it so that these rectangles fly in a complete the pattern once the loading has finished, but on a fast connection I don't want it to rush the animation but for a slow connection I obviously want it to adjust the release time and maybe even the travel speed to compensate.
I had an idea of maybe working out the percentage loaded divided by 42 and then run an if statement to see if that percentage for that segment had been reached before 100millseconds had passed, if 100 had passed then release the rectangle, if not then hold the rectangle until 100 m/s had passed. Not sure if that is the best way to do but that's why I'm looking for some suggestions from more experienced developers.

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.Regular;

I am trying to make a sprite button with graphics and can't make it work. I have successfully added text fields so I know the path is correct. I suspected my code was correct and confirmed it should be, after reading several tutorials showing the process for creating sprite buttons with graphics. Anyway, I imported nearly every class on Earth, but certainly everything which needs to be. Stage is gray and 800x600.The graphics code by itself with appear, but not when linked to the sprite. Also, the sprite won't appear no matter what. Another interesting piece of the puzzle: nothing will trace, not even objects such as textfields which actually appear and function on the stage when I text the code.

Previously i had unloadmovie, but now?how to remove swf from swf when animation is goind to some frame?[code]...
View 1 RepliesSo I am still pretty new to AS3 and I am trying to put together a site. I have most of the functions working properly except one and this is the issue. I have a main SWF and inside this SWF i have a button, that when clicked, loads a image gallery SWF. The problem I am having is inside that gallery swf is a close button and when i click the close button to remove the swf, it doesnt work. I have looked through several forums without success. Does anyone know how to remove or close out a SWF with in a SWF? here is the code I am currently using in the gallery swf to close it out.[code]...

> a preloader loads my main menu , on the main timeline of my preloader.swf I create a new loader (loader1) and tell it load the URLRequest "menu.swf"
> The menu.swf loads, on menu.swf main timeline I create a click function (instantiates once a button has been clicked) that loads my second loader (loader2) and this loads the URLRequest "cast.swf"
I want cast.swf to replace menu.swf and remove it entirely but I cant figure out how to do it,here is what I have tried inside the click function of menu.swf(is this possible? can you write code to remove an swf if you are actually inside that swf's main timeline? )
removeChildAt(0); ( this only removes the bottom layer of the menu.swf)
removeChild(MovieClip(root).loader1); inside the click function ( this does not remove the menu.swf )

The removeChild code keeps generating the error: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
Let's say I have a global SoundChannel object, and inside a function I am repeatedly creating new instances of the Sound object to play songs one after the other. Each time I do this, I need to add a new eventListener to the SoundChannel to call the function 'onSoundComplete' that will load the next song on completion.Coming from a strict C++ programming background, I often wonder if it's necessary to do some kind of cleanup in Flash, or if it handles it automagically.Here's example code that specifically removes the eventListener from the previous Sound object everytime a new one is created, but I don't want to be doing this if it isn't necessary:
Code:
// Setup sound object buffer
var slc:SoundLoaderContext = new SoundLoaderContext(3000);
