Actionscript 2.0 :: Library MovieClip Line Resizing
Oct 12, 2008
I have been working with actionscript 2 / xml for quite a while now and this is the first time I have come upon this one. I have one movieclip in the library that I attach using attachmovie for that generic "glassy" vista type look. Only thing is, when I resize it via actionscript, it resizes incorrectly. Flash ells me it's correct via trace, but it obviously isn't. If I delete the border line off of the movieclip, it resizes fine! I have the clip set to none for scale under the properties tab(with the line and fill selected). The line has a gradient but it does the same thing if solid. What I'm wondering is has anyone else run into this and have they found a workaround?

I know Sprite.graphics is pretty easy to use, but I was wondering if there is any ready made libraries for drawing, resizing, moving, layering, etc.. of various display elements? Also, stuff like tool selection, maybe some effects, premade shapes. Anything you would recommend?

I have two movieclips, one loads an image, I resize that mc and add it in a bigger movieclip which has to be resized too. My problem is that that the inner movieclip doesn't resize the way I want although I've tried many variants of the sequence of the commands. I've also taken into account something that I read that an empty mc resizes strangely but it didn't change anything.
that's the code:
loader_mc.x=0;
loader_mc.y=0;
cont_mc.x=1440;
[Code]....
red mc is the outer one but the sizes of the inner are not right it should be about one third of the outer but it's about two thirds. same with the height.
All I want is to be able to resize them independenlty. with the outter beeing bigger than the inner

the size of the outer is right 1440x1000 but the sizes of the inner are not right it should be about one third of the outer but it's about two thirds. about same with the height.
All I want is to be able to resize them independenlty. with the outter beeing bigger than the inner. Or to be exact I want the the inner to fit exactly the height or the width of the outer depending on which site of the inner is bigger( for example if the inner's width is bigger than its height then the inner width gets as big as the outer's width and then inner's height gets resized according to its ratio) and furthermore to center it in the middle of the outer.

When you want a window to pop up (ie: image descripstion), do you just have the content in the library , or do you actually have it in a keyframe labeled in the timeline? And what is the best script to call it , and to make it close when clicked anywhere?

What I have is a movieclip and a button in scene 1 (which is the main timeline).There is an actionscript layer also on the main timeline. what I want to do is when I click the button, it would do a nextFrame(); in the movieclip timeline instead of the main timeline.

I am new to Actionscript 3 and i am making a basic flash site using CS4 and AS3.I need to have an image as my background that resizes whenever the window/browser is resized and that works perfectly. I also need to import another SWF to the stage as this contains the main body of the site, this SWF needs to be centered at all times on the stage even on a resize.I have pasted some code below as what i have working at the moment is the SWF gets imported, the background does scale and resize etc but the movieclip won't center when first launched and i just can't figure it out.[code]

I have a movieclip in an external swf, called menubg. In the library properties tab, it reports the size as 1024x768.I use an embed statement to pull the movieclip from the swf at compile time. It comes in just fine (as a Sprite since that seems to be the only way to instantiate an object from an external swf), you can see it without a hitch, but tracing out the size info does not return the same WxH as the original.Here's some code, and the trace outs
var mbg:Sprite=new wpa_menuBG;
trace(mbg.width,mbg.height); // 1028.95 777.95 -- that's not right
// the screen container[code]......

I have 2 moveclip called view_mc and restricted and button called btn_scale.
When the user click and drag btn_scale, it resizes the view_mc where the width and height of view_mc dosen't exceed the width and height/2 of restricted area.
I made that. But when view_mc reaches the width and height/2 of restricted area, I can't resize view_mc to be samller. (The btn_scale looks like it's disables and can't use it)
I think some logic is missing. I highlighted the code that is missing some logic.
var clickedX:Number;
var clickedY:Number;
var newScale:Number;

I am searching all over google for an easy way to resize images but the problem I am having is that .x does not work .width does not work ._width does not work. ._x does not work. How can I do something as easy as changing the width height of a picture? I am loading the photo into a movie clip using the Loader class
var i = new Loader();
i.load(new URLRequest("a.jpg"));
// here I try to write a code that will change the size of the image.
photon.addChild(i); //photon is the name of the movie clip instance
And have tried. all of the codes mentioned above on both the actual movie clip instance and the loaded image on variable (i).

I have a movie clip named "shapes" that I use as a pseudo-background for my .swf, I alter the color of the movieclip by using the following code;
on (press) {
var colorful = new Color("_root.shapes");
colorful.setRGB(0x003366);
}
So that each section of my site has a unique color. The problem is I want to publish this as fullscreen (Publish Settings, set Dimensions to "Percent" and Width and Height to 100). For this to look right I need the movieclip "shapes" to expand to 100%.

Im trying to create an inventory where when you click an object it will automaticly go into your inventory, the inventory is embedded in other movieclips.I have quite a few spaces(movieclips) in the inventory box when it is open but I just need it so when you click an object it attaches to a movieclip in the inventory.I also need it so that if you click a different item it attaches to the next space in the inventory rather than overlapping an item you have clicked before. I would only have only about 15 (or something similar) spaces so if I have clicked 16 items the 16th item cannot go into the inventory.

I have a fullscreen projector using fscommand ("fullscreen", "true");
Fullscreen works fine. However, I have 2 movie clips that I don't want to resize with the rest of the movie. (They are non-vector images that look crappy when resized.) Is this possible? If so, do you know what code I need to use? I'm using AS3.

I wonder if any of you can point me in the right direction. In my stage I have a movieclip where I want to load several images with different sizes. This mc called "container" adds the loader to the stage so I'm asking for the loader width and height once has finished loading and then passing these to the width and height of the mc container so it resizes accordingly. But...it doesn't work. Here is my code:
[CODE]
var pic:Loader;var totalImages:int = 10;for (var i:uint = 0; i<totalImages; i++){ pic = new Loader() container.addChild(pic) pic.load(new

I am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I'm loading a few pngs/jpgs externally so they can be swapped out occasionally, and the issue I'm running into is when they are shrunk they become fairly choppy. Is there a way to have flash re-render them, or do something to smooth the resizing as opposed to going in and resizing every file manually myself?

I've got a little problem with BitmapFill, I'm trying to use a sprite as a container for various things and i would like it to have a filled pattern background. my problem is that i want it to resize the sprite to the height of the window but not have the background fill resize, and add more / crop as the window size is changed. to illustrate what i mean, please view the diagram attached to this post .
I have an image in my library called 'pattern' and my code is as follows:

stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;

Got to the point where the hole in my AS3 knowledge is getting large!Realising I have confusion about the relationship of:Body of code on first frame of AS3 file.(Which I have so far used to create instances of library objects using addchild and make calls to class code).Is this code called the document code? What do people call it?Numerous classes linked together by extending each other etc.Library objects (usually graphical objects)Should it be done differently? have the following problems due to lack of understanding:Addchild complicated from a class but straight forward in main body code.Cant call functions on the main body code from classes, because class code does not know the main body code exists?
