I have a button that shrinks an icon on my screen. The problem I am having is that its shrinking to the movicelips upper left corner and need to shrink to its centerpoint. Here is a portion of my code if that helps:

I'm using a gallery maker called "flash slideshow maker professional" , but when it loads, the hole stage goes to the upper left corner!
View 3 RepliesI'm sure that many of you already saw things like this ( eg: when winning at FWA S.O.T.D., you get a little "logo" and many sites have it aligned in the upper left corner), so this is what i want to do, let us say i make a MovieClip ( dimensions doesn't matter, but it's quite small ), and i want to align it to the upper left corner of the stage... The thing is that the movie/stage is set to auto-scale, so whenever i scale the browser window then that MC should "refresh" its position and stai at the upper left corner again.
View 3 RepliesI cannot find any information anywhere on how to change my layout or even the ruler layout in Flash. The stage is stuck in the upper left-hand corner of the pasteboard. If I could get the zero point of the rulers to move (like to the right and down), then I could reposition the stage, but I can't. There is no edit ruler function. The zero points are right in the upper left-hand corner together.I can't see items which I need positioned to the left or above the stage at all. Does anyone know how to change the stage position on the pasteboard or ruler layout?

View 3 RepliesI just got Flash CS4 yesterday. This is the first time I have ever used Flash. I watched some tutorials and now I'm trying to do something on my own. I want some text against a white background to start out white in the lower-left corner. During the animation I want the text to move to the upper-right corner and turn black gradually as it goes. What I did was this:
created an actionscript 3 file
Made some white text at the bottom-left
Right clicked at the 90th frame on the timeline and clickedInsert KeyFrame
Right clicked between the 1st and 90th frames and clicked Create Classic Tween.
At the 90th frame I moved the text to the upper right. Then I clicked on proprties and set the text effect to brightness and set the brightness to 0 so the text would be black.When I hit enter to go through the timeline it shows me exactly what I expected: The text moves from lower left to upper right and gets darker as it goes.
When I hit Ctrl+Enter to preview it as a published movie the text stays white the whole time until it gets to the upper right. There it turms black. So all I see is nothing for a few seconds and then a flash of the black text.Also, if I click at each frame in the timeline I can see the text is in a different place and getting brighter gradually.I'd like it to play once rather than looping. Under the effects I clicked on a thing that says play once but it still loops. Where do you control this?
I'm trying to figure out the best way to make the text in the upper right hand corner of my photos page linkable URL...Here's the action script that's in the action layer of the file for that spirt: function loadGallery(directory, images)[code]

I designed it so that the box with my name in it sits touching the left top corner.When I test it in flash thats what it looks like. But when I up load it it moves over there.
how to force a SWF from Top left corner to the correct position.. When I tried to use a container it made the external swf not work at all, though it was in right position
WITH THIS CODE, THE SWF LOADED BUT JUST IN WRONG POSITION :
on (release) {gotoAndPlay(4);
loadMovie("gallery.swf",1);
}
then when I used a EmptyMovieClip it came in as the attachment.
Is there any other way to still use the LoadMovie() and adjust the x and y positions?
I'm making a map editor for a tile based game. The editor makes a grid:

I am following this tutorial and i have got to step 9.http:[url]......I have made a file called Ship.as with this code in.

like in title, i do labirynt but when i click start mouse is in middle, i want change this, mouse must be in lower left corner
View 1 RepliesI put an image on my stage. Then I created a keyframe out about 25 frames. I then went to frame 25 and grabed the side of the image and drug it in. Shrinking the image by about 30%. This shrank my image from both sides. When I run it, the image shrinks from the left and the right symmetrically. Now after I did this, I clicked on the tween and said to copy as AS3. Then I went to a new layer and tied the new AS3 code to a new image dynamically. It works fine, except that it shrinks only the right hand side of the image. In other words, the images seems to be anchored on the left hand side. How can I make my dynamic image shrink from both sides in?

View 8 RepliesThis is the souce code for loading and resizing the images from an xml page. The rectangle is autimatically resizing as per the size of the image. But the problem is, in 800 x 600 resolution with small images the rectagle goes down 'coz it resizing happening in aspect ratio (width and height is proportionally changed). I want to change the height and width only downward direction. Top left corner should be fixed. How to alter this code for that.

MovieClip.prototype.resizeMe = function(w, h, id) {

I made a movie where I'm dragging a mask...
(_x = _mouse
and _x = _xmouse*-1)

but the picture that is masked appears in theupper-left corner so only quarter of the picture is in the movie...I made it the exact same way and the exact same way as the tutorial (clouds) but ......
I've checked this behaviour: If I define a sprite (by programming) as:
var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
square.graphics.beginFill(16750899, 1);
square.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, width, height);
square.graphics.endFill();
return square;
When I check the position of the sprite ( square.x, square.y), they reference the TOP-LEFT CORNER.
If I create a symbol by Flash CS4 and export to Actionscript (I also associate one class which extends Sprite for doing "new()" in my code):
var square: MyClassExtendsSprite = new MyClassExtendsSprite();
When I check the position of the sprite (x, y), they reference the CENTRE of the sprite!
In my adobe Flash CS5 when i create a new symbol it opens in a new screen as normal. the stage that I can edit it on however is stuck in the top left when I zoom out and it's starting to drive me nuts. I can't work with it like that.
View 5 RepliesWhen you create shape on stage and right click and chose create object you can chose Registration point for the object you chose what corner will be used as center of coordinates for this object. Now onice you create object is there way to change this registration point e.g. i created it in center now i want to to be in upper left corner?

I inherited a flash project from someone and if I add a simple movie clip to the stage at position 0,0 it actually ends up in the middle of the screen!
What I can see is that when I open the stage in the library, in it's properties
X=350 and Y=262,05 all the subsequent movie clips which are added to the screen as by magic are added at position X=-350 and Y=-262.05
I would really like to return to a situation where 0,0 is top left corner. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

View 2 RepliesI'm working in a xml videogallery and I'm using a video component... The problem is that when I go fullscreen the video object loads in the top-left corner of the stage (is a 800x600 movie) tough I publish my movie with 100% x 100% dimensions.
[Code]...
As you can see after the first fullscreen the stage remains in the Top Left corner. Is there any way to make the stage return to the center? I need to do it when I return from fullscreen to normal mode... or.. what can I do? I tried to put the gallery inside a MC and center it but still fails cos the video object loads in the registration point of the MC (like in the first example I've provided)...
What do the little red squares on the lower left hand corner of the movieclips in the actions panel mean? [Fig. 1]I'm working off this template in Flash CS3, that's using ActionScript 2.0 actually. I don't know whether or not that means anything in regards to the above inquire?

I need to create a full page flash file that overlays a webpage. Something like the example in this link.
I have figured out how to create the flash file which will overlay the page, with all elements centered, from here: kirupa forums tutorial.
The only thing I cannot figure out is how to attach the Close button which would come at the top right. AS3 is not allowing me to attach any behaviour to the button, neither does it allow me to put actionscript there. I am in dire straits.
So when you load a picture into a movie clip, it loads into the Top-Left hand corner.I really want it to load into the Top-Right hand corner. Is there a way?I am loading it via AS - not placing it manually, as I have a variety of images which are of different dimensions....
