I'm trying to migrate from AS2 over to AS3, and I'm getting hung up on the two things below -
1) I need to load ONE image from an external xml file into ONE blank movie clip on my stage. I've already gotten the xml loaded into flash...I just need to assign the the node information to the blank movieclip.
2) I need to assign a hyperlink to the image that is loaded into the blank movieclip.
how to load a movieclip into a blank movie clip all in the same movie?!
View 4 RepliesI have a MovieClip that has 2 images inside it:
1) An image from the FLA's library.
2) An image that is loaded dynamically from a server (read from XML file).
When I try to draw the MC into the BitmapData, I get a blank image.
Code:
ActionScript Code:
var destImg:BitmapData = new BitmapData(_root.picW,_root.picH,false);
destImg.draw( mcPicture );
I'm trying to dynamically load a SWF into a blank movieClip called "holder" and control it by instance name on MOUSE_DOWN. I'm sure this is easier than I'm making it but the SWF just has a bunch of frames and i want to use one script to scrub through the frames but i can't figure out how ot get the instance name (or whatever) of the movieClip.
// Load movieClip into "holder" movieClip
var loader = new Loader();
holder.addChild(loader);
loader.load(new URLRequest(btn_SWFname));

I want to load an Image into a movieClip and then I want to drag the mc by onPress.
Why does it works?
[Code]....
First of all, let me say that I have no actionscript knowledge, but I have PHP knowledge.
How can I make a movieclip display an image from a php file?
And how can I send the image from the php file to the movieclip?
I am using an xml list to hold some data+image for different items. for each item im trying to display the text/images in a movieclip.So im taking the url thats store in the xml file and creating a url loader to load the url. which works fine. but how do i then load that image into a movie clip.[code]...

I am loading a video clip into an mc at certain times ...
//load video
var connection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
var stream:NetStream;
var video:Video=new Video(stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight);
var metaObj:Object = new Object();
var isPaused:Boolean=true;
[Code] .....
The video loads fullscreen initially and on resize because of my video var params (var video:Video=new Video(stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight). However, my image does not load fullscreen initially but does on resize. Are there params I can enter somewhere to allow my image to load fullscreen?
i'd like to load an external image in a movieclip via
createEmptyMovieClip(..)
mcName.loadMovie( imageName )
trying to set the mc-size via

nothing changes. furthermore - any possibilities to zoom or stretch the image to get the size provided from the mc?
I have a class in which I create multiple thumbnails in a for cycle. In the library I have a movieclip for the thumbnails (ThumbnailContainer). This movieclip contains another movieclip (imageContainer) with a mask and a container where the image should load (image). So in AS2 it would be ThumbnailContainerInstance.imageContainer.image. How can I load an image into "image" movieclip? The thumbnail class looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
package com.site.thumbnail
{
import flash.display.Loader;

I have a movieclip that I would like to load an image into. I can't even get it to load just a normal image...with, for example: [URL] I was thinking it would have to be in an IF statement, that when (loaded) then take the URL that it returns and have the movieclip load it. The test link (the first one) is the what the server processes when you type in the second link in your browser..

I've honestly tried to look everywhere and have no clue how to do this. PLus i've tried for hours and still have no success! As the post thread title states, I have a swf file and i want to import anothe swf file into a blank movie clip. Can it be % wise? And can the image's width be set to say 100 and the height be automatic? Also, what about the x and y positioning? also, I do not need or want a progress bar.

I've created a button on the stage and when I clicked onto the button, it will load an internet image in a movieclip from the library, "movie_mc". So here is my code:

i'm trying to attach/create a new empty movieclip to load an image into each time my function fires (function has setInterval on it).so far, my code works in that the first time it creates the empty clip and loads the pic in it, measures the loaded bytes and alpha fades in when it's loaded.when the function repeats however, the newly created clip is either not there or i am not referencing it correctly, or there's some problem with the way i'm trying to do this.I don't want to delete the previously attached clip since i'm alpha fading the new one to 100 on top of it.kind of a simple crossfade that way.here's my code:
Code:
startSlides=function(){
this._parent.largePic.createEmptyMovieClip("clipp"+i, 5);
this._parent.largePic["clipp"+i]._alpha=0;[code].....
I'm trying to load an image found in a xml file into a movieclip but am not having much luck... I get this error (I changed the path to shorten):
Error opening URL 'file:///Cpathonmycomputer/myflashproject/undefined'
the code I'm using looks like:
Code:
var _imgme =_xml.firstChild.childNodes[_currSong].childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
imgholder.loadMovie(_imgme[_currSong], 1);
imgholder is the MC on the stage, _currSong is the current xml child being read.
I have a 2 movieClips on stage. One is a holder to load the images into, the other has buttons nested inside. The button will not load the image.
Here's the code:
btn1.onRelease = function() {
holder.loadMovie("one.jpg");
}
I'm sure that it's due to _root or similar but I'm not too sure how to apply it properly if so. I've attached the .fla
I am in the middle of building a kind of image editing application.Basically the user uploads their picture and then can draw on it, (sounds silly I know!).I was toying around with allowing them to just upload their file onto my server where it would be saved and then they could edit it through flash, but I don't want the responsibility of ****, child **** cyber bullying etc going on on my webspace!!
So I'm trying just "loadMovie" with the local path of a file, but it is not loading when I put the swf on the web! It all works fine locally but not on the web?Is there some security bypass I can write into my actionscript that will allow this?
got a problem.. if i load an image into _root.pic_mc movieclip and its loaded i try to load anotherone in the same mc.. now the pic_mc turns white and the picture disappears.. so i tried to make a duplicateMovieClip on the pic_mc but this also didn't work. any other solution on this problem?
View 2 RepliesI can go forward and then go back to the first image without a problem, but whenever I stop on the frame where the movie clip is, first image in the sequence is always white.I've been ever the code repeatedly, completely replaced movie clip, no alpha applied, etc.
View 1 RepliesI need the first page to load blank (just a transparent background would do) but at the moment it's loading the first page of text. I want the text to appear when I hit the home button (named: mc.menuBtn1_btn). I'm having a little problem with the following code. I want the buttons to slide in on the x from left to right and then settle in position, with no text on screen. Then, when I hit the home button, the home page appears, followed by all the other buttons in the menu I decide to click.

I have been working on code updation project wherein initially we had an image and text as movieclips in fla library. The image and the text are read by the actionscript program which then creates an animation.[code]...
I want to ease the updation process by giving the url of the image in an XML file. Read the image url from the xml and load this image in the library of the fla as movieclip. This, i think, will result in less code change and improve the updation of the final animation image.
The problem i am facing is not been able to figure out how can i change the image (after fetching its URL) to a movieclip and then load it in the library?
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

Have a blank stage with 3 movie clips as buttons. When I click them I'm using this code
[Code]...
this triggers the click of the button to return to the main timeline and stop on a specific frame. My issue is that if I click the button a second time, it goes to a blank (or different ) frame, a third click will return it to the proper frame. I'm doing this as some users I work with are mouse clickers, now this is ok if I use a button symbol, but I want them as movieclips. What script can i use to ensure that every click makes the mc operate the exact same (goto specific slide with no randomness)?
