Positioning (centering) An Externally Loading SWF
Aug 3, 2009
how to make it so that it is always centered horizontally in the middle of the browser window. I am having issues making it so that it is centered vertically between 150pixels from the top to the bottom. This will make it so that if the window is small the swf will be right at y=150 but if the window is large it will have equal spacing between the top(150) and the bottom of the window.

I can't get the content to center correctly when the browser window is resized. Despite efforts of trying to make the design work within all screen resolutions, it still does not fit correctly on smaller ones. What I want is for the content to center itself completely - Right now it only centers from left to right. Here is the code.
Code:
// Aligns everything to the top left side
Stage.align = "TL";
// Disables the movie from scaling
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
[code]....
The first thing I tried was simply adding all_mc._y = Stage.width/2; to the start values and the sizeListener, which worked until you clicked on the navigation and the all_mc movieclip is moved to a new X coordinate. It moves fine, but when you try to resize the browser, it jumps the movieclip back up to the top and moves back down again.

The website I am working on is here:

I have not included a preloader yet, so it will be blank for a few moments before it loads.

all_mc is the movie clip that holds all of the website content. Pressing the buttons on the navigation makes the entire movieclip shift up and down.

how to tell the movieclip to stay center after the x position changes.

So, basically, I've loaded an .swf into an empty movie clip in my movie and positioned it with this code:
[Code]...
When I hit cntrl + enter, everything lines up looks good and works fine. When I do a publish preview in HTML however, the mc is dragged all the way to the bottom of my screen and mostly hidden beneath my footer.

basically, I've loaded an .swf into an empty movie clip (myContainer_mc) which is itself located in another mc called loop_mc on the main stage and positioned it with this code:
Code:
var lp:Object = new Object();
lp.onResize = function() {
loop_mc._y = Stage.height-275;
[code]....
When I test the website in flash (ctrl+enter) everything looks perfect and works right, however when I view the website in a browser the movie is dragged all the way to the bottom of my page and mostly hidden beneath the footer.

This is the swf I'm trying to load. These actions load and position a small simple swf just fine and the trace in the onLoadProgress function indicates that it loads completely but I can't see it. What am I doing wrong?

I know how to build a simple slideshow. The particular slideshow that I'm working on has 50 images, and with all those images in the library, it makes the file 23MG and takes forever to load.Should I load the images externally? I know how to do that when using a thumbnail, or button, but how would I do that so that it loads in as a slideshow?

What's the proper way of loading an flv movie externally? I was doing a project in class which utilized tweenlite and loading of a couple videos externally in a folder. The swf worked fine and even the html looked fine, but once it was loaded into the schools server, the site didn't show. The professor is not really fond of actionscript, but she does have a grasp on HTML related issues. She told me it may have been a problem with the video loading file. This is the script I used to load the file in:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.client = {};

I've been trying to get this actionscript 2.0 to work on more than one movieclip. It works fine on the one object:
[Code]...
When I try to add the code to other objects it only works on one. So can anyone explain to me how I can apply the code to multiple objects? I want more than just one object to rollover glow. Also, can it work on externally loading text moveclips (ie movieclip_mc.myText01_txt)?

Im have 5 swf files that I want to play one after another on my home page.
I would like to have the first movie load and play and while that is going on have the others downloading in the background so they are ready to start when the first movie finishes.
After the 5th and last movie has played I would like it then to return to the first movie and just loop this process continually.
I have attached what I have at the moment which is a file called demand.fla that uses buttons to load in demand001, demand002, deamd003 etc.
Ideally i would like demand to load in each slide automatically and then have flashmove onto the next one after 5 seconds or so.

In the following application images are attaching from library as bitmap. But i want to load it externally.Actually what I am trying to do is that i want to divide an image in to several pieces and giving a disolve effect for transition. I got a code in which images are loading from the library as bitmap object. I changed it and loaded externally using bitmap, but i cant divide images in to small pieces. I think its due to the problem of loading as bitmap.i just want to modify the following code to load image externally.

when I press a button, the text loads into the still visible imageArea_mc text area.When a button is clicked, I have external swfs which contain 2 dynamic text boxes, named heading_txt and content_txt, loading into my main movie. They are receiving their data dynamically from an XML file. The problem I am having is that as soon as the button is clicked, the new data loads into the still visible text boxes. What I want to do (I think) is somehow tell the main movie to assign the appropriate text for each individual movie.
ActionScript Code:
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite=true;
myXML.onLoad=function(ok){

I have a project that first loads a preloader swf then loads a main swf. Next, other swfs load externally into the main swf. One external swf is an xml driven mp3 player. The player runs fine when opened on it's own, however, when it is loaded into the main swf, the playlist isn't actually showing up, nor is the audio playing. The components, combobox, show up but playlist is not populated nor do the controls work. Below is my source code. Note: the playlist, mp3 files, and external swfs are all in the same directory.
Code for preloader swf
Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("test_flash_16.swf"));
function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void {

I was just working on this tutorial: [URL]
It seems to work fine when I uploaded it to my testing site. It loads the correct swf and I can click on my menu link (the only other functional button with the action scripting) to go to another swf and it transitions correctly. Here is the problem:
After clicking on the menu link and trying to click back on the home link (containing the same swf as what initially loads) to redisplay the first swf, nothing happens. Then the menu button is unfunctional after that as well.
I've been pulling my hair out trying to get transitions sequences between externally loading swf's in my flash site.

I have the jist of how to load external images into as3. One thing that I do not understand is how to pull all the images needed and store them so that when you want to view a specific image it is not loading the image again.
I need help on how to pull about 10 images externally and store them in to movieclips or something so that when I roll over a button to display this image it will just call the movieclip and display the movie clip with a preloaded image already. I am also doing this dynamically.

I have an image viewer which has both next and prev buttons and a thumbnail menu at the bottom. They are both loading images from the same array, I need to get them to talk to one another. For example: if I click one of the thumbs to take me to array4, then click the next button it will recognize array4 and go to array5. Right now the thumbnails don't send that information to the rest of the script.
Here's my script:
stop();

I realize that title sounds a little confusing, but what I am trying to do is copy this style of site[url].... I have created all of the swf's for the main index of the site, but am way out of my league on how to load them into a certain position in a single movie clip so that a drag bar can slide the movie clip left and right. I have read a few posts on external loading, but am not really sure on how to implement them to achieve this look.

When I open a new document in flash, the stage is in the top left corner of my screen and I cannot figure how to center it in the middle. I cannot go to the left or above the stage which is making it very difficult to work with as I cannot access those areas.

I know theres probably a simple solution but it's escaping me at the moment.
I have a centered swf, I want it to stop centering if the swf reaches the side nav so they dont overlap.
function Center(mc) {
mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if(mc._x >500){
[Code]....
this stops the centering when it hits 500, but it stops all centering because it's stuck on 500.
