Actionscript 3.0 :: Position MovieClip With Unknown Registration Point?
Jun 15, 2010
Normally, this is a simple task if the registration point is either top left or dead center of the movieclip. Unfortunately, this may not (and likely will not) be the case for the movieclips I am trying to position, so I was wondering if there was a way to center a movieclip in a given area without knowing it's registration point.registration point via the Matrix class or any other method, as it's very important for positioning of the movieclips inside of it.

i'm trying to zoom in on a picture at the specific spot where the mouse is clicked. ie if the mouse is clicked in the lower left corner, the pic gets bigger from there, not the center of the pic. the only way i can think of to do this is to reset the registration point to the clicked position. is this possible? is there another way to go the job done?

I have read a few discussions on changing the registration point on a movieclip but don't seem to work. I have a movieclip with embedded mcs. I can se that the nly way of changing the reg point is by saving as a mc again ie: creating another one and upon creation choose the reg point.

Can I set the registration point of a MovieClip (or other Display Object) to its center upon creation in AS3? the following
[Code]...
sets the registration point of myClip to its top left corner by default. Using Flash CS4 to set it to its center is just a couple of clicks, so I am wondering how I can perform the same action only with code.

I'm making a custom collision class, and I need to know the registration point of the targets so I can use the bitmap.hitTest(); function, and not all of my movieclips have their registration point in the upper left side, so I'll have to do a little calculation according to the registration point of each movieClip, but I don't seem to know how to obtain the registration point with as3.

Is there a way to extend only the bottom part of a dynamic Movieclip? I tried to change the height or to scale my mc but it always makes the change relativity to the center of the Movieclip. I guess I should define a registration point and change the height according to it but i'm not sure of how to do it

I'm trying to see if there's a way to change the registration point of a MovieClip that's importing an image dynamically?Here is my code where I add an image to an "overlayHolder":
overlayBitmap = _loader.getBitmap( _data.id + "-overlay_image" );
overlayHolder.addChild(overlayBitmap);
overlayHolder.x = _data.overlay_left;
overlayHolder.y = _data.overlay_top;
What I need to do is rotate this image later on, upon interaction from someone, but need it to rotate with a center-registration.I've seen a bunch of tutorials/forums talk about centering a registration point when you're drawing a Sprite on the stage, but not when you're importing an image.

To load an image onto a movieclip, the mc's registration point must be top left. Is there a way of loading the image on the whole movieclip, when it's reg point is not top left. In other words to set where to start putting the image in reference to the movieclip

I have recently followed a tutorial to make a movieclip in flash that makes buttons spin around a point depending on the mouse position. I have made my own version off this and would like to use it in a full flash website that i am making at the moment.
The only problem that i am having is with aligning this clip and as it is made up of script i cant physicly drag it to were i want it. I understand how to alighn this with x/y positioning but when i preview the flash in a web browser it is positioned correctly but then when i 'full screen' the browser this clip jumps about 4 inches down the page.

I have a movie clip on my stage with various elements in it. When I edit this movie clip all the coordinates for the various elements have really random values because the registration point is not set to the top left corner of the symbol but I can't find any way to change the registration point - nothing I've found online so far works.

I want to load a series .jpgs into an existing mcs. The mcs are 75 x 75 pix and the .jpgs are 50 x 50 pix. The problem is that I made the mcs with the registration point at the top left corner. This causes the mcs to load in at that point so that the margine between the .jpg and the mc is uneven. How can I change the registration point of each mc so that the CENTER of the .jpg is positioned the CENTER of the mc?

I'm importing an image that I'll use as my pointer(arrow) in a speedometer. My problem is that I need to manually set the movieClip's registration point so that I'll get the rotation right. If I manually drag the image on stage and use F8 to convert it to a MovieClip, I can set the registration point in the dialog box popping up. The only thing I'm trying to do is just that, but with ActionScript since I create this thingie dynamically

I've got quite a few images that are being loaded into my project through the MovieClipLoader function, anyway, when they are loaded to a specific MovieClip, their registration point is set to the top left corner (0, 0).Is there any way of adjusting the registration point for this MovieClip? Or would I have to something like the following:
Code:
var pL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
// loader[code]......
I don't know if the above is even possible, but thats what I'd guess, if there is no way of setting the registration point in a easier way. I feel that the above is such a waste.
