I have a black stage, and I use the following code to add images to the stage at random positions container.x = stage.stageWidth / 5 + Math.floor(Math.random() * (stage.stageWidth / 2)); container.y = stage.stageHeight / 5 + Math.floor(Math.random() * (stage.stageHeight / 3)); My maths is a bit terrible, so when I try moving the images about, I tend to just play with the numbers, not knowing what they are for. At the moment, the images all get placed roughly in the middle of my stage, which is basically what I want. However, If possible, I dont want the images so close to each other. At the moment, some images end up sitting on top of other images etc. Is there anything I can do to the code above to spread the images out a bit?

What I want to do is to get the movie to display random images (from a selection) for random amounts of time (subject to minimum and maximum times).
View 3 RepliesI am trying to implement a random slideshow type thing which would be fine if all of the images were in the one folder, but i want to randomly display them from multiple folders... if I define each path as a variable, is that the easiest way?
ActionScript Code:
var pathaURL:String = "folder1/slideshow/";
var pathbURL:String = "folder2/slideshow/";
var pathcURL:String = "folder3/slideshow/";
and then somehow implement the randomness with the image variable...?
I'd like the tutorial on randomly loading images to go one step further...Anyone know how to have the images load randomly and have a button that ALSO draws from the images randomly...?
View 1 RepliesI'm developing a game and the objective is to drag some objects to a container. Some objects add points, and some other subtract points. So, all the objects are in the library and have a linkage name to be called by attachMovie. I want to create an Array with all the objects that belong to container, like for example filename1 = ["obj1", "obj2", "obj3"]; etc... I have a var called count1 that defines the number of objects to appear on the Scene

I'm having problem with regards to getting the name of the inserted images inside the movieclip container.
My movieclip container is named "container", it followed this snippet:
[Code]....
Is it possible to get the exact name of the images instead of "instance147" or "instance175"? So that if i have inserted image with the name of apple.png, it will show:
| 1. name:apple.png type:object [object Loader]
By the way, i use FileReference to insert image to the stage.
I've got a stack of images.Those images are all added to a sprite container:
var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
container.addChild(img);//added in a loop
addChild(container);
Later, when I iterate through the container to remove the images I say:
for(var i:int=0;i<container.numChildren;i++)
{
var currImg:Sprite = container.getChildAt(i) as Sprite;[code].....
Only a part of the images are removed. If I trace container.numChildren I get the correct number of images to be removed.
Yes, another one of those pour souls attempting to escape the confines of AS2 and venturing into the AS3 world! I'm simply trying to dynamically add an image frame (imgframe) to the stage, sticking an image holder (imgholder) into the image frame mc and then loading an image into the image holder mc. Here's the code I've been using as a test, but it spits out errors saying that a term is undefined on "mainmask_mc.imgframe.addChild(imgholder);" code. I've tried changing it to various things, but nothing works.

I have been searching all over for on using ActionScript 3 to load external images onto a movieclip container. I am planing to have a sequence of external "png" images loaded onto the "container" when I clip on a button.
View 3 RepliesI am developing video conference application in flash with FMS4.5 and integrating StageVideo API for rendering video on hardware and it's working very nice but, I am not able to capture picture from StageVideo.
View 5 Replieswhat I want to know if there's a substitute for a stage (since you only can have one) that accepts objects to be added to it (as childs with addChild(object)) that isn't the size of the stage but its size is definied some other way.I just created another thread about loading swf files, but my question is new but related to that.I'm creating a series of mini-games that shoud be loaded into a project from external SWF files, but right now I'm using "stage" as the place where I put all my objects.For example, I have a GRID that accepts new Grid(4, 4, "Object") as the Construtor parameters, that is to say 4*4 (16 boxes to this grid) and it determines "automatically" how wide the stage is, if it's 200 px every box is 50 pixels wide. And the same for height. It calculates stageWidth / X, stageHeight / Y
so it's always a "full grid" that is 100% on the screen no matter the size.Finally, my question is if there is some other type of container other than stage that can "contain" these objects. Say that I create 4 of these containers, and each should hold 4 mini-games without taking up 100% of the stage container - instead it should take up the Substitute that acts in a similiar way.
I am working on a gallery: the slider rotates the container with the images using Tweener class and easeOutCubic transition. There are 45+ images around the center of the container The movement is not smooth, especially when comparing to the way it would be with a small container. Also, and most important - A rough "snap" appears randomly in the end of the motion.

I have these 2 lines of code from a tut, but it centers the container. I need it on the right of the screen.
my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2;
my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
I've got a movie clip that consists of a few other movie clips. This is to maintain a certain degree of order in the chaos. I use action script to load the container mc on the stage. Now I want to change some properties of on of the contained mc's, but they seem to be unreachable. So I did a little testing and I found out that when you just place an instance on the stage, those contained MC's are accesable, you can see in the debugger that the container MC contains other stuff. But if the MC is loaded with attachMovie(), the debugger does not show that the container has other mc's within it, and therefor I cannot change the properties of those mc's.
View 1 Repliesso i have a sprite containing a bunch of other sprites. what is the simplest way to remove every sprite within and place onto stage in the same spot?
View 6 RepliesFor some reason below is not working. It is probably very obvious but I am not seeing it. As soon as I comment out the container mc variable and just add Child to root timeline I see everything which means me container is not being added to the stage correctly.

I have an AS2 .fla with all of my stage items on the timeline as opposed to inside a container swf. I must chose Center vertical and Horizontal options in the HTML alignment options when publishing in order for my movie to be perfectly centered in the middle of the browser. I would like to have a FULL Browser Background Image, however when I try using the following code, my background ("bg") does not fill the entire browser.
what I am doing wrong and if it is even possible to have a full browser background image while still using CENTER alignment in the HTML publish settings? I have tried the following code with and without the Stage align settings and with the xy coordinates centered-still no luck!
bg.Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
bg._width =Stage.width;
bg._height =stage.stageHeight;
bg.x = 0;
bg.y = 0;
I need to add 5 cubes made from container movie clips to the stage. So far I have added the container movie clips to the stage, given them instance names and then referenced them in code from there. e.g.
ActionScript Code:
cubes.cubef(cube0);
cubes.cubef(cube1);
[code]....
(cubes.cubef is the function for creating the cube from the container movie clip)So I was wandering if I could dynamically and add the clips to the stage from the library by just using code. I have tried this so far:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i<5; i++) {
var cub:MovieClip = new cube_mc;
[code]....
From that code, I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at cubes$/traverseParents()
at cubes$/cubef()
at rota_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
EDIT: I have solved this. I used an array for storing the instances then refer to it.
ActionScript Code:
var cubeArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i:int = 0; i<5; i++) {

I have a movie with two squares. Depending on which button is pressed, the demmensions of the both squares change for which I used the following function:
Code:
function scaleMoveClip(clip, breed, hoog, xpos, ypos, snelheid) {
clip.onEnterFrame = function() {
eindX = xpos-this._x;
[code]....
The code for the other buttons is the same but with other arguments. Now do I also need to integrate a loadMovie in the different button actions, to load the different ext.swf's in a container on the stage, but I only want the swf's to load after the callback is finished (when the squares qre not moving any more) How does the loadMovie should look like?

View 2 RepliesI have a set of images on the screen that is 5 x 5 rectangles. My objective is to constantly have images fade in on top of the existing images in one of these random positions. I have 200 images/movieclips that these will be pulled from.
I figured the best way to do this would be to have 25 pre-placed instances on the screen and have the script choose one randomly and then load a random movieclip into it.
The problem that I am having is that after it draws the first box it is not persistent, it disappears just before the next one
appears. I want them to stay forever or least until that particular image is completely covered up.
