Is there any way to track and set the browser window scrollbar position from Flash? I've searched around the web but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer. It would be really cool if its possible.[URL]...

I am using a ScrollPane in my application(viz., instance name is: myScrollPane). When I view the contents of the ScrollPane, it shows them perfectly. My issue is: When I try to view data present inside the ScrollPane, if I move the Vertical-ScrollBar of the ScrollPane to middle(or somewhere from top to down) and then click on Submit button(viz., instance name is: submit_btn), then its Vertical ScrollPosition must be reset from middle(or any position where we leave it before) to top(or initial position). Hence, I need to move the Vertical ScrollPosition of ScrollPane to top (or) initial position. Everytime, I need to refresh the VerticalScrollBar Position when I click on the submit button. How to do it?
View 1 RepliesSo I'm trying my hands on some full browser flash and after reading a couple of tuts I wrote this
Code:
#include "mc_tween2.as"
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
stageListener = new Object();[code]...
The trace's are because it didn't work like I thought it would.Etc the middle movieclip didn't center itself but rather positioned itself seemingly how it pleased so I traced its x position and the var stageXcenter position and like suspected it shows different values.
ok - i'm totally confused here... this is probably a stupid noob question... just recently got flash 8 - upgrading from mx2004, but had previously been using flash 6 components and AS1, due to files that had already been written in mx... my problem is this - i have a dynamic text field, populated with data from a LoadVars object. When a button is pressed, different data is loaded into the text field, and the scrollBar is supposed to reset to the top (position=0)

In my main .fla I have a scrollpane which opens an external SWF, inside this external SWF I have 5 frames, each with a 'Next' button at the bottom, the problem is when the user clicks the 'Next' button the the scrollpane doesn't change the position of the scrollbar, so essentially the user is looking at the bottom of the next frame. Is there any way to reset the scrollbar position from either the external SWF (linking to the main SWF), or with some code in the main SWF?
View 3 RepliesWith scrollPane, is it possible to change the position of the horizontal scrollbar? I saw an old thread that suggested using the following for moving the vertical scrollbar:scroller.verticalScrollBar.x=-20;So I tried changing it to "scroller.horizontalScrollBar.y=-20;" but that had no effect.
View 1 RepliesI have a horizontal scrollbar. I want this scrollbar to move a movie clip left and right on the screen.I cannot figure out what I am doing. In one example I'm looking at, it has the script on the button of the slider:
onClipEvent(mouseMove){
_root.vPosition = _root.SliderMC.ButtonSliderMC._y * 5 / 6;
}
I can't figure out the math for my scrollbar. How do I find the fraction that is in this part of the script? The numbers are not matching up for me. I also can't get my slider to go left to right. It keeps going down. And my image that is suppose to be scrolling the with slider is not even moving.
Any way of personalizing your browser scrollbar using actionscript? If so, could you point me in the way of a valuable tutorial. I have a feeling it is uncontrollable through flash though and through Javascript.
View 0 RepliesI have a simple gallery that rearranges itself when the stage is re sized. Can anyone help me with adding a scrollbar to the browser once the stage size is small enough. I want to add a scrollbar to the browser window when the stage height is reduced below a level.
View 2 RepliesI have this problem where the scrollbar interferes with loadClip. Anyway, I am looking for possible bugs between FF browser scrollbar and loadclip. If I don't use the scrollbar the loadClip works fine, but if I load some images using loadclip and scroll the browser right after in between calling them and them actually appearing the loadclip fails.
View 6 Repliesscroll a movieclip inside a swf with the browser scrollbar? I'm not talking about something like swfFit or so but actually controling a mc on stage while the rest of the swf stays in place? I've seen this done in a site that I don't remember the url to. Don't know though if they placed a div containing a swf on top of the "main" swf.
View 15 RepliesI have an image gallery with a bunch of thumbnails displayed on the page in a grid-like layout. Currently, the swf sits in a HTML page set at 100% width and height. There's a resize listener that adjusts the layout so that the thumbnails all fit on the page
at once. So, as the browser window gets narrower, the columns decrease and rows increase as the thumbnails get pushed down the page.
The problem is, once the thumbnails get pushed far down far enough to go past the bottom of the browser, the overflow is hidden and the thumbs "below the fold" are not accessible. Is there a way to pass the dynamic height of the SWF, so that the browser detects whether or not it should display the side scroll bar?
I've seen this pretty slick flash site where the content is clearly loaded in dynamically and the browser scroller bar is used.
View 4 RepliesHow can I display the vertical scrollbar in an .fla that is taller than the browser window?'ve created a file that loads thumbs from an .XML file and displays them in rows. You guys taught me how to do that and it works greatThe stage will be larger than a typical browser window and extends below the botom of the users' screen. When I test the file (in the environment) and when I publish it to HTML, no vertical scroll buttons are visible. The thumbs seem to be displayed properly except for the fact that the rows of thumbs go beyond the bottom of the screen and there is no way to scroll down to see all of them.When I publish just the .fla and manually embed it into an HTML page in Dreamweaver, the vertical scrollbar appears and works as expected.
View 2 RepliesI have a Flash file embedded into HTML - the objects inside are place based on the browser's screen size.Most of the time I don't want a scroll bar, as things are correctly placed, but once the browser window gets too small it'd be nice to have it.So, the main question: can I have a Javascript code listening for the browser window, then adding a scroll bar if it's smaller than a certain number?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to increase the height of container with increase in the number of contents inside the container. Like in my case i m using tileList inside tabNavigator , when I put contents inside the tileList, the height of tileList does not increase beyond vertical height of the viewport. It puts scrollbar on the container. I want to increase the height of an flex container with increase in the contents and introduce scrollbar on the browser with increase in contents in the flex container.
View 3 RepliesHow to create a fluid / liquid / fit to screen flash site with scrollBar. I am pretty much new to AS3 and flash. I have been looking for a way. To have, a background image contained in a MovieClip. Let's say: bg_mc and have it scaling automatically to fit the different user's Internet browser screens size. In other hand, have another MovieClip that handles and holds the site. Let's say: content_mc without being affected by the scaling of the bg_mc. And last, in the case... the content_mc height does not fit in the user's internet browser. Have the internet browser with its scrollBar so the user can scroll down and see the rest of the site. (right now my content_mc is being cut off the screen).
Examples Flash sites with this layout: [URL]. The Next Code: it does generate a full browser's background image but there is no scroll bar for IE or FireFox and in some cases stretch my content_mc if i play too much with StageScaleMode.

Im currently working on a full dynamic flash website and I want it to look and behave like a good old HTML/CSS page. Meaning that i want a regular browser scrollBar to appear/disappear when the movie height is changed.
So my new killer app simply demands a width of 1000 pixels, but can be any height, and I want people to see the vertical scrollBar on their browser.
I changed the "100%" for the width to a fixed number like "1000", and keep the height parameters at 100%. I thought that will do the job, But NOT I�ve googled and found some interesting stuff, but nothing really I can use (javascript solutions).
I have a movie that is 2000px in height and some objects are duplicating vertically adding up by 100px. Say I have 5 objects so there is only 500px of content, is there anyway to use javascript from flash to limit the scrollbar to 500px instead of the full 2000?
View 1 RepliesI have a MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL eventlistener setup for a custom scrollbar component that allows the wheel to control the scrolling up or down.Inside the Flash dev environment when I test the flash app it works fine. However, when I test the app inside a web browser ( which has its own vertical scrollbar ) the mouse wheel controls both the scrollbar in my flash app and the scrollbar in the browser.Is there a way to setup the eventlistener on my scrollbar that it prevents the MOUSE_WHEEL event from bubbling up to the browser?

View 1 RepliesI've been through all the tutorials on flash scaling and stage resizing and can't figure this one out. I have an MC in _y proportion to the Stage.height-40, so when resizing the browser I should always be able to see it.
The Problem: I know how to do this; by publishing the movie at 100% width and height - this works fine. But my flash movie is a magazine which is long, and requires scrolling in the browser to see the content.
As soon as I set the movie to publish width/height at 100% I can no longer scroll my flash magazine in the browser.
Is there a way to readjust the MC _y position as the user scrolls up and down; so the MC is always in view. So it'd look similiar to those pesky ads that follows you as you scroll away.
My code:
PHP Code:
Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
resConfig = function(){

To make this more clear I have a flash website coming near to the end of the design stage. I have a multi-layered scene with a resolution of about 700x1200 (so you would scroll down the page with the browser scroll bar). Basicly I want these layers to correspond to your scrollbar position as though the perspective changes. ie: scrolling down would push the fore ground at the normal rate but only pushing the background at a slower rate, (thus giving a 3D effect).I would imagine since the .swf would then need to talk to the scroll bar, there would be a need for another language as well as action script.
View 0 RepliesHow can I make a .swf with a movie clip that reacts to the size of the browser like this one:
[URL]
The movie clips are all positioned and sized relevant to the size of the browser instead of positioned within the document.
I'm working on a site right now where the flash player fills the browser window up to 1600x1200 res. The developers I hired are having problems with AS2 when it comes to scaling things and positioning them as the browser window changes size. While it works, the biggest problem is the aspect ratio, keeping the layout looking nice, and the footer keeps dropping off the screen at certain sizes.
Screen res closer to 16:9 looks better laid out than 4:3 and they keep telling me that it has to be proportional when it comes to positioning and scaling, although positions aren't really changing from whatever code they've used. To me, there must be some way so that if looks nice on 16:9, when it goes to 4:3 it will look good too, or even some in between size, they should be able to use code to figure out where things belong, even if it's not perfect. Instead, there are big gaps of dead space on 4:3 and it just looks like crap.
This is also true of background images which fill up about 1/3 of the page on the left or right. As we go down in size they say only a proportionate scale can be used, but sometimes the images are staying too large based on the size of the browser window and should be scaled more. Some of this may be attributed to much of the content being loaded dynamically as the client has us building a CMS, but to me, it's still coordinates and scale when it comes down to it and I don't know why raw percentages must be used instead of some more complex math.
If someone knows how this can be achieved, or can at least point me to web site that has this working properly, I can make sure they investigate further and figure this out before the deadline. I'm adding attachments to illustrate what I'm talking about. I'm using colored blocks to define where dynamic text boxes, icons, footer, images and navigation are. Arrows show where i'd like things to move dynamically.
I am having problems changing text x,y position in a browser window as the browser is resized. Ultimately I plan on positioning an image but just using the text for now. I use the following code:
Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, wResize);
function wResize(e:Event):void {

is there a way to open a new browser window with a set size and position?
View 3 RepliesI want to position a clip near the end of the browser window and to make it fixed there, no matter on which screen resolution my site is viewed. I've tried already doing it using the external movie with fscommand, as well as with Stage.align, but then it applies to all the loaded movies. The rest of the content should be centered.
