Actionscript 3.0 :: Loading Swf's Into Specific Depth?
Mar 15, 2009
I have managed to load external swf's fine and also unload them when a new one is loaded, but now I need the swf's that are loaded to appear below (meaning on a lower layer effectively) than my navigation, which is in the main swf. I hope that makes sense.I can get that to happen by creating a movieClip on the stage on a layer beneath the one my navigation is on and loading the swf into that mc, but then I don't know how to clear the swf from that mc so another one can load there in it's place.Here is the code I have so far:
Code: Select all//Universal Button Function
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
/*removeChild(target_mc);
In my stage im loading many dynamic movieClips.at the same tim i have the static movieClips too..while i'm loading these dynamic movieClips, thats overlapping the static movieclips on the screen.. actually i need the static movieclips at the topmost position. is there any option to do like?
I'm having a some trouble with loading an SWF into my main SWF. I have a main SWF with 4 frames. I want to click two buttons that will then load two SWF's into Frame 2 and Frame 3. Below is the script I wrote for the buttons. The earlywork_btn needs to load RColeman_EarlyWork.swf into frame 2. This swf is a slide show. The currentwork_btn needs to load RColemna_CurrentWork.swf into frame 3.
HERE IS MY SCRIPTS FOR MY BUTTONS:
stop(); function onbiographybuttonClick(evt:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop("1");
[code]....
And in Frame 2 I have this script to load RColeman_EarlyWork.swf. It works, however, once it loads then it is in my enitre main swf file, basically each time I click a button it is ontop of the content in the other frames. How do I make it just stay in Frame 2? Also, I can only load this one swf file, not the other one into FRAME 3.
HERE IS MY SCRIPT TO LOAD THE SWF FILES:
var ldr:Loader = new Loader(); var url:String = "RColeman_EarlyWork.swf"; var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); ldr.load(urlReq); addChild(ldr);
I have two flash files, say a.swf and b.swf.a.swf is the main swf file, embedded in an HTML page for a webpage. There is a preloader in a.swf too. In b.swf, when I click a specific button I need to load a.swf, but not from the preloader, from the content. To be precise, the content starts from Frame 24 of a.swf (obviously Preloader ends in Frame 23). I believe, the frame 24 has to be loaded in a.swf when I click the button in b.swf.
I'm having a some trouble with loading an SWF into my main SWF. I have found multiple ways of doing it, but I want to find the most appropriate way for what I'm doing.
Here's what I'm doing:
I have a main SWF with 4 frames. I want to click two buttons that will then load two SWF into frame 2 and frame 3. Below is the script I wrote for the buttons. The earlywork_btn needs to load RColeman_EarlyWork.swf into frame 2. This swf is a slide show. The currentwork_btn needs to load RColemna_CurrentWork.swf into frame 3.
I'm not sure which scripts to use to load the SWF's and how to arrange it in the ActionScript panel.
ActionScript Code: // stop(); function onbiographybuttonClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
The webpage I am working in is one move. I want to be able though to create an html file that will start the document from a certian frame (not from the beginning). How do i do this without breaking up the whole flash file.
I have menu.swf which loads an external SWF (longmenu.swf)longmenu.swf has a long background on stage, which scrolls according to what the user clicks. It works fine on it's own with tweenLite. But what i need to do is to have menu.swf controls to which part of the background it scrolls or appears at once an item on menu.swf is clicked.
I'm trying to load my movie into a specific location...I got the code to load it properly, and now I need to know how to load it to specific X and Y positions.
I've come accross loadMovieNum and loadMovie, I can use them to have the swf load up in to the top left hand corner but I can't seem to find out how to script it to the area I want it to load to.
I have a main movie which loads various external SWF's. What I would like to achieve is that when returning to the main movie (using URLRequest & Loader class) that the main movie starts at specific frame.[code]I believe that the way global variables work in AS3 is very different. Is it true that I need to achieve this via an external class ?
Using AS3 how can you load an external swf file at a specific frame of the newly loaded swf file.Using the AS3 loader class I have no problem loading an external image or swf movie onto the stage.But what I want to do is when the swf is loaded, go to the second frame (labeled "two") of that loaded swf.
For example, My main movie "main.swf" is blank.My external movie "loadMe.swf" has a circle on frame one and a square on frame 2.On the main movie (main.swf) is a button and when you click on it I want the square on frame two of "loadMe.swf" to appear.
I'm made a dropdown menu and i have resolved the navigation for the main buttons, but i have problems with the menu sub buttons , my question is: After the movie is loaded, how can i make the sub button go to specific frame. This is the script:
I have a video that plays for 1.30 secs. After it has finished playing I would like to automatically load a MovieClip onto the stage, how do I create a timer element to this?
I have a text box which when submitted will action a specific task depending on what its contents is, so for example, you type "one" in and it will bring up a picture of a boat where as if you type in "two" and press enter it will bring up a picture of a car. Now thats all working fine, what I have an issue with though is that with several of the tasks I want it to open the same window but load different content within that window depending on what word was typed.
So if you type "one" it will load a grey window and load within that a picture of a boat, but if you type "two" it will load the same window but load a picture of a car inside it. Now the way i can see this working is when you submit the box it sets a variable and when the window loads, depending on what that variable is set to it will load the relevant info.
[code].....
I have also tried placing that last bit of code within "window" instead of "winbod" but it still doesn't work. I'm pretty new to variables so I know it will be to do with me not placing them right. Where abouts am i going wrong here?
I have a problem loading a xml file from a specific folder. The main.swf file is in a folder called swf and the xml file is in this sting of folders "photos/portfolio/content.xml".
Here is the code I have now: // import tween import fl.transitions.Tween;
Is it possible to load in a movie to a specific frame? I am currently loading a movie from a button with: on (release) { unloadMovieNum(1); loadMovienum("Is.swf",0); }
This works perfect, but I'd like to add usability by directing the button to a specific frame within that new movie. I've tried: _level0.gotoAndPlay(10); After loadMovienum in the previous code but it doesn't do anything different. The movie always starts up on frame 1. In the end I'd like to have multiple buttons serving as navigation buttons specifying different frames of the new movie.
Ive been searching high and low to find out how i can dynamically load an image into a container [i.e. im using the xml_photogallery tut. template] and setting it so that it scales to fit specific dimensions. At the moment Im having to resize images in photoshop so that it fits with in the container/webcontents dimensions. Otherwise different images with different sizes will bleed on main body of the site.

dont know how to load a dinamic text in a text_MC, but make it apear only in the midframe of the background mc...i have a dropdown menu who loads the BG's to the container_MC in the main timeline (its a movieclip too) who has the following code in the button:
on (release) { if (_root.currMovie == undefined) { _root.currMovie = "bg2"; _root.contentor.loadMovie("bg2.swf");
[code]...
i know this second part is wrong, but its the best i could do :S how do i make it unload the preview text, and load a new one when the bg finishes the intro animation (gets to the midframe)?[URL]
