I have a question about movie clips. I have about 20 MC-s in my flash. Is it possible for me to duplicate one of them multiple times in specific location? I mean if I have button that says "DOG" and I press it, then new dog appears on screen. And I need to do it for like ten times or so
View 8 Repliesi made this code that duplicates a movie clip randomly in the stage but i want it to be duplicated out of the stage.
View 1 RepliesI have 26 letters(english alphabet) into a linkage movieclip(var let:Letter = new Letter() ) and I put a drag and drop function into the mc. My goal is to drag the movieclip leaving the original on its position. The reason why I want to duplicate is that when I spell a word with single vowels on it ex. "word" with single "o" that would have no problem. But when I spell a word ex. "banana" with 3 "a"`s there is where my problem is.

i am trying to populate an MC/text field via XML and the duplicate this underneath itself (in a loop) for how ever many lines of the xml there are.. Ive got quite far *in my humble opnion* but seem to have come unstuck on the looping and duplicating...
My code only duplicates the movieclip once - and the second movieclip is not populated (ie pulling data from the xml) only the first one is!..
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;

I am basically trying to duplicate a movieclip by using a button.. (no probs there).however, i want to drag each movie clip individually.. ( my brain froze)here is my butchered code..// graphic is the mc i wanna drag, n is the textfield that i want to count up.

how to duplicate a MovieClip 10 times using 'duplicateMovieClip'& place each instance of the new clip with equal spacing when the frame starts.. instance name of my MC on stage i.e. to b duplicated is bt_mc & it is the y position i.e is to b changed.
View 12 Replies if you'll look at [URL] let it load and then click on FASHION. All goes well. Then click on HOME. All goes well. Now click on FASHION again. after you've done each card once duplicate movie clips start popping up, but I've not called any such function. Here's my code.

I have a movieClip(contentMC) that contains numerous movieClips for my site. I have set the color matrix of contentMC to be black & white. This works fine by itself but once I start duplicating and populating movieClips inside 'contentMC' the color matrix settings are lost.
[Code]...
I've even tried to populate the content and THEN turn it B/W thinking that it would be better to convert the contentMC to BW after it was done building itself. This didn't work either. So I started to comment out code until the color matrix settings would stick and this line of code is the killer but unfortunately is essential to rendering the site. contentSC.samplesMC.sample._y = contentSC.samplesMC.sample._y+621; (this line offsets a duplicated movieClip)
im having a problem duplicating more than 1 mc in my flash movie here's my code which is meant to duplicate it 1 time.
Code:

i = i + 1;

was going well but then i decided to make it so they appear at certain intervals using the amount of seconds elapsed.
Code:
var PreElapsedS=0;

I am trying to duplicate an MC 11 times - that works fine. But the MC has a dynamic text box centered on it. I would like the first one to say "1900" and each one after to be increased by 10. So the second one says "1910", the third says "1920" and so on. I have this code on an MC called "timeline". The MC I am trying to duplicate is called "bar" and is with "timeline":
[AS]
onClipEvent(load){
for(i=0; i < 12; i++) {
_root.timeline.bar.duplicateMovieClip("copy"+i, i);
ext = _root.timeline["copy"+i];
ext._x = 125 * i;
[Code] .....
but to no avail. The dynamic text box on the bar MC is called "year". I have tried making that the var as well as the instance name and still no luck.

I have a group of 16 images that I would like to load 1 of each into each movieclip. I want image1 to be inside of visual1, image 2 inside of visual2, and so on. the images are named like, 1960s_(1).png where the 1960 (year) part is coming from the rangeNum variable. The above gives me this error: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type int.
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?

add some functionality to the presentation template. Currently you can only move from one page to the next. So if I want an animation on a page, no problem I'll just add a stop script at the end. No big deal. But if I want Multiple animations (just trying to replace powerpoint here) then I get into trouble.
Each page is one frame on the main timeline. Hitting left/right goes to the next frame, unless the movieclip on that frame also has additional frames. Then it should move to the next frame within that, etc.
I can't figure out that if statement though. I had another bit of script going on my first go, but ran into some issues so thought it best to create all of the scripting on the main timeline. Initially I created a boolean variable, then ran an if statement. Inside of a movieclip I switched the boolean and used the same keyboard interaction to walk through it. On the last frame of that movieclip, I switched the boolean back so the main timeline interaction kicked in again. The problem is, that's a Lot of copying and pasting of that code, and I can't figure out how to go through more than one parent. I just couldn't get it to work.
Should I just be building this thing in a Completely different way? I need to make something, so for now I'm splitting up each frame that I need different animations on and creating a different movieclip for each section. Ideally that would be contained in one movieclip's timeline. Currently one each animation's interaction will be on a timeline. So I have to duplicate the slide to add an animation. So if I have a title come in, then a pie chart, then an image, then another piece of text, I'll be stuck with 4 separate movie clips.
I want something like:if current movie clip current frame is == total frames, clicking right goes to next frame, else go to next frame of it's parent's timeline.I say the parent and not stage because the way you have to set up transitions only works within a movieclip. So you have to set up the entire slideshow within a movieclip if you want transitions between each slide. Right?
I don't care about transitions for now, but will want control of those eventually.
I have 30-40 movie clips that I want to reshape. They are all identical except for color and name. Is there a batch way to duplicate the entire library but change the shape without going into each one?
View 5 RepliesI have a few movieClips and I would like them to play one after the other. [At end of MovieClip play next movieClip]. Using AS3 to Tween, this is my first Clip props.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(FloatRight_mc, "x", Regular.easeOut, 22.00, 495.95, 3, true);
var myTweenAlpha:Tween = new Tween(FloatRight_mc, "alpha", Regular.easeOut, 1, 0, 3, true);
How do I get the next movieClip to start playing before its completion, and so on?
I am making a website with complete external xml data holding text and urls to images. I have several categories. One of the category has three sub categories as menu. When I click btn1 it gets the xml and start making text field, rectangles, lines and picture frame for thumbnails. Before that I use a single movieClip container to hold all that stuff and then point it to mask and scroller too.That is working fine. Now the problem is that when I click on btn2 I want to remove previous container and make a new one.
Now what happening is that it is creating one more container of different xml and putting over the previous one. I have used removeChild command and it is still not working. It only works if I use it alone and do not create a new container. All this process is done on a movieClip. That movieClip holds container, mask and scroller. The only thing that is made dynamically is the container. Rest of the items are on the timeline of the movieClip. I need to remove container inside of the movieClip and make a new container inside the movieClip.
I've got a long list of similar movieclips I'm adding to the stage. There's 9 in total and the code looks like this...
stage.addChild(zone0_mc);
zone0_mc.x=267.6;
zone0_mc.y=120.5;

I have several movieclips in my project which are being used as buttons, and when you rollover the mc's the content is viewable the entire time the mouse is hovering in the area of the movie clip, once the mouse moves off it disapeers. Great. I have the code that allows this to happen, but i have multiple mc's and only one works at a time. Here is the code:
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overHandler);
function overHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
mc.gotoAndStop(2);

I have created a flash whack-a-mole game, and coded the 9 different x and y cordinates the 4 moles can come up on. But I can't code it so that the moles can never have the same x and y cordinates.
I have tried this code: (Barney and mulvarp is two moles. .flytt(); is the command that gives the mole a new place to be.
if( Barney.x == mulvarp.x ){
Barney.flytt();
}
I'm following a tower defence tutorial and part of the code is set up so I can build towers on the "grass" movie clip. I wanted to add more patches of "grass" and gave them all the same instance name so I can be able to place towers on them, but I have the problem that I can only place towers on the first item I placed and has the instance name of "grass". I can't seem to place towers on the other patches of grass.I removed the instance name of the first patch of grass and it let me build towers on the second patch, but the second patch only.

I have 3 movie clips in my scene and they all function properly individually.Problem: only the first movieclip will work in my test of the full scene.If I move a movieclip from the bottom to the first position in my scene, then it will run while the others are stopped I can't figure out how to tell the program to activate all 3 simultaneously - so each button (linked to one scene in the movie clip) will be available to click.The code from each movie clip essentially looks like this
stop();
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
BtnKonzertDesk.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseDownHandler1);

Is there any way to move or scale a bunch of movieclips on the stage as one, without putting them inside of another movieclip?
