Actionscript 2.0 :: Scrolling Multiple Loaded Movieclips From 1 Scrollbar?

Jul 22, 2009

To just add the articles will only make the page load slower so I used a scrollbar with a textfield and added text and pics to the article to scroll it. This works fine but I need a way where the scroll can call different textfields or movieclips. For instance, the main scroll opens with a textfield that scrolls articles 15 thru 10. I need on the bottom of the page buttons that link articles 9 thru 5 and so on. So when you click a button the textfield or movieclip changes and displays what is in that textfield or mc. I have looked for a tutorial, a video or anything on this and besides coming up with Flash 5 similar mentions but nothing to this point

ActionScript 2.0 :: Scrollbar Not Scrolling Dynamically Loaded SubMovies

Jul 18, 2010

I'm having trouble getting my scrollbar to work with dynamically loaded movies inside the movie the scrollbar is attached to. An example of my working scrollbar code with static data and my broken scrollbar with dynamic data can be found on a nice webpage I made, but I cannot post a proper link: www cryhavocguild com/actionscript php. Make sure to include the www as my flash file will only load the data with it (another problem). I have a for loop that pulls data from my database, populates a topMovie(contentMain) with 20 subMovies inside it. My scrollbar is attached to topMovie. Once the data is loaded and the topMovie is populated, the scrollFace(not ScrollTrack) dissapears and the dynamic movie is not scrollable. As a test, I populated the topMovie with graphic boxes and no dynamic movies and it scrolls just fine.

Scrollbar code:
scrolling = function () {
var scrollHeight:Number = scrollTrack._height;
var contentHeight:Number = contentMain._height;
var scrollFaceHeight:Number = scrollFace._height;
var maskHeight:Number = maskedView._height;

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Scrolling Through MovieClips Using Multiple Tweens?

Apr 30, 2009

Picture this, for now anyway, as I will be uploading my example when I get home from work. I have five squares all the same size on 5 different layers in slightly different posistions so it looks like a diagonal stack of squares.

I have a button called playHead which I need to act as a counter I will now state the play buttons functions. Once the user presses the play button the first square moves horizontally off of the stage through a coded tween, whilst the square behind it moves into its original position.

I need this function to happen for all of the squares, I would ideally like to use a key listener and the LEFT ARROW instead of a button but I am doing it this way firstly.

The problem is that because I am using multiple tweens and only 1 button everytime I press the play head it trys to trigger the first tween: I feel that I need a counter mechanism that turns off tweens that have already finished and counts through a variable to know which square has been moved. I will upload my progress at 6 tonight GMT.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Optimizing Multiple Scrolling MovieClips?

Aug 19, 2011

I'm currently working on a project for a client who just keeps adding and adding more and more visuals and functionality (while developing!) to an already complex website . The website is very high-end with a lot of 3d rendered PNG-sequences and looks beautiful, but as you can imagine my flash-project is getting cluttered and becoming very slow at runtime very fast.

For a small baseline: I am currently working with swf files of 15mb a piece (the site will have multiple sub-sites). Each with full-browser moving bitmaps, movieclips and png-sequences. Anyway, the site layout at this point: I have multiple sprites layered on top of each other. These will, based on the mouse position, move parralax-style to simulate depth. Within these sprites I have the following visual contents:

a. a static PNG which acts as a static visual. This PNG is duplicated multiple times within the sprite (tiled) to make sure that the visual is browser-filling.

b. a moving PNG-sequence using this solution from the guru's at greensock: forums.greensock.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4243&p=16835#p16835

c. a multiple of movieclips which act as buttons displayed at various positions within the parralax-moving scene, these buttons popup new screens and load external content.

Currently I've managed to fix all the parralax sprites through the scrollrect option, with only the bare minimum of each animation visible at the same time (the scrollrect is always as big as the max sprite height and max screen width), but because of the visual madness of the website, the swf still runs as fast as a tortoise on ritalin.

Flex :: Control Multiple Instances Of Movieclips In A Loaded Swf At Once?

Mar 2, 2011

I am loading an swf created in flash professional cs5 via the loader class into a flex 4.1 application. The flash file contains multiple movieclips that are exported for actionscript and those movieclips exist in many instances throughout the movie.

Iterating through everything, comparing class types seems to be the most easy but also the most redundant way to solve this. Is there any way of using the class name as a kind of global selector to access the clips?

I could also make the sub-clips in the flash listen for an event on which they perform an action, but I am not really sure what might be best.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Images Loaded Into Movieclips Placed In Array?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Scrollbar W/Dynamic Text, Not Scrolling Up?

Jul 2, 2011

I have made a custom scroll bar, using tlf text converted to a movie clip that measures 903px tall. I've got a mask on it that's 314px tall.The scroll bar will scroll all the way down to the bottom of the content, but it will not scroll all the way back up. The button will go back to its place at the top of the scroll bar, but the movie clip only scrolls back up about two thirds of the way.I don't get any errors when I test the file, and I've permitted debugging in the hopes it would find an obvious mistake to no avail.Here's the code:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Simple Scrollbar Scrolling A MovieClip?

I've removed all of the math I had done. Just trying to get the content area (_scrollable) to move up and down behind the mask in the opposite direction, just as you'd expect a scrollbar to do to a content area.

Dragging of the scrollbar is setup and this just needs some simple math coding in the thumbMouseMove function.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Scrolling Dynamic Text With Custom Scrollbar

Aug 13, 2008

I have created a custom scrollbar for some dynamic text ("services_txt") under a movieclip ("servicestext_mc" with the instance name services_mc). The name for the scroller is scroller_mc.

The scrollbar works fine, but it doesn't seem to want to connect to the text box. I keep getting error message 1120: Access of undefined property services_txt.

I've tried scrolling my text several ways and seem to keep getting this error - I have a feeling it's because I've inputted the text manually and forgot to do something, instead of using an external text loader. Here is the code I've inputted:

var scrollPercent:Number = 0;
var minScroll:Number;
var maxScroll:Number;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Comunicating Between Loaded Child Movieclips And Parent Holder Movieclips?

Aug 6, 2010

I m trying to make sense of how to load a swf into a parent MovieClip and allow them to communicate.I ve attached two zip files � one which works fine and the other doesn�t. Unfortunately (for me), the one which doesn�t work is closer to my current project.I need to load movieclips into the parent movieclip. The parent movieclip has controls which rely on values parsed from the child movieclip.In the parent movieclips I wait until the loading is complete and so the values should be passed. However, the values aren�t passed unless I use a button (or timer), to pass the values (see the working exampes).The code which doesn�t work is:

I have 50 images that need to be on stage, which will be embedded into 50 different movie clips. I named the movie clips image1-image50 and the images are in an external folder named 1-50. Every freaking article or tutorial I have found clearly explains how to upload one image, or just one at a time. I can do that, and spend 2 days renaming all the functions, but I do not want to do that. Is there a better way to just load all 50 images, place them accordingly?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Scrollbar And Loaded Content Of Various Sizes?

Jun 5, 2009

I'm working on a project that uses a loader to load up a swf, then display the loader in an area using a mask and a scrollbar to scroll through the content. The content in this project will change regularly, including the dimensions of the swf file (vertical dimension only, I'm not worried about horizontal scrollbars with this question).The problem I'm running into is I can't figure out a proper formula to get the scrollbar to position the content at it's bottom when the scrollbar is at the bottom  What I have now is close, but not exact. If you scoll to the bottom, the bottom of the content would scroll up too high, leaving an empty 'blank' space where the content should be. I have an if statement checking for this currently, but this creates a 'dead zone' at the bottom of the scroll bar where the content is already at the bottom, and the scroll bar can continue to scroll down a bit.oes anyone know what I'm doing wrong here in the math to get a good scrolling going, regardless of the size of the content loaded by the loader?Here is what I have so far:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Scrollbar Not Working When Loaded Into External Swf?

Apr 13, 2010

I recently purchased a scrollbar from the exchange marketplace and it works beautifully within it's own swf but as soon as I load it into a second swf (the main "start movie") it doesn't work. When I click on it to scroll, the tracker sticks to my pointer (like a mouse follower) and won't release until I click on a button leading me into another movie. The scrollbar component came with an external caurina file which is where I think the issue is coming from. I think it's having trouble finding the associated code when inside the second movie.  I've tried all sorts of parent vs root scripts to try and get it to jump a level to recognize the source of the original code.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Multiple Files Into A MC In Order In Scrollbar?

Feb 24, 2011

We are trying to build a site with these features:

Our site will be built in Actionscript 3.

1. A navigation menu that, when a button is clicked, will scroll the site quickly to a specific Y position using swfaddress.

2. The entire site is controlled by a flash scroll bar, which will be scrolling a single movieclip. The movieclip will load multiple swfs one by one that correspond to the navigation, in order, making the site appear to be very tall.

**What we are in need of is understanding how to load multiple swf files into a movie clip, in a specific order, and having them scroll between one another through the navigation.

A great reference to this is the SWFC Shanghai site. If you google it and click on a link, you'll see this effect.

**What we are in need of is understanding how to load multiple zipped files into a movie clip, in a specific order, and having them scroll between one another through the navigation. The separate navigation categories can be in movieclips instead of zipped files if that is easier.
