I'm developing an ActionScript 3.0 app for Blackberry Playbook. I have a Loader with a fixed size of 240x240px. The images that can be loaded inside are smaller or bigger than 240x240px, and also they aren't squared. I use this code to resize that images:

Im trying to use a Loader component to add images to my flash file externally because i need to use a single loader for multiple images of various sizes the centerpoint is forever changing the centerpoint is ALWAYS to top left (as seen in image) and i cant figure how to change it.Ive used the following actionscript 2 code which i would have assumed it would center it fine but its never truley centered.[code]
View 1 RepliesI'm looking for the best way to get a flex 4 image object to resize and horizontally center whenever its parent container (a custom component based on group) resizes. I cannot set horizontalCenter="0" to accomplish the image centering because I use a move transition to "slide" the image in and out of view.
I'm externally setting the image source in the component. Here is a simplified example of my component code that only addresses resizing the image.

In AS3 / CS4 I'm trying to programmatically create a bunch of rectangular objects, let's call them 'cards', that will contain an image and a colored background and eventually some other elements like text. I want to create alot of these cards and move them around inside of a larger panel (also a Sprite) of sorts. I can successfully create colored rectangles in my cards and place the cards where I want in the panel, but whenever I try to add an image to a card, I can't seem to position the image inside the card's coordinate space, it ends up being placed inside the larger panel's coordinate space instead, even though I'm adding the image/loader as a child of the card. I thought maybe it had something to do with having to wait until the image loading was complete, so I added the listener as a test but that didn't work. Here's the code:

Ive found all sorts of answers but not the right answer. Im using the loader class to load images into a gallery. Im placing the image inside a movie clip. I want to resize the images as users will dynamically load them but width is not working. scaleY works and scaleX
[Code]...
im working on an image viewer and im loading an image to a loader and then add the loader to the stage.I want the user to be able to drag and drop the image but since it's a loader i dont know how to do it.
I tried
imageLoader.startDrag = true;
imageLoader.content.startDrag = true;
but im getting an error on both.
did the tutorial on this site for an xml image gallery - it worked great... My question would be is there a way to accomodate for multiple image sizes that would allow the image displayed to be centered?

View 3 RepliesI'm having trouble to center any dynamic content (movieclips, textfields...) inside a dynamically created movieclip, which has a default point of interested in the top left corner.
PS: Just as an example, I have a dynamically created text field inside a dynamically created movieclip....and when I try to scale that movieclip I need to scale it from its center
I'm told that the following chunk of script will center the stage on resize, but not knowing much of anything about actionscript,
myListener = new Object(); myListener .onResize = function () { ... } Stage.addListener( myListener ); // later ... Stage.removeListener( myListener );
I have a movieclip on the stage which has the dimensions 400x400.I currently load images,and add them to this component.Each image is a different size. At this moment in time, they are placed at position 0,0 within the movieclip container.Some of the code looks like
var data:XML;
var total:Number;
var url_list = new Array();[code]....
Is there anyway I could get the loaded images placed at the center of the movieclip container.I dont know if I have to do something like subtract the images width and height from the containers width and height, and then divide by 2?
i've created a rotating banner with images and wanted to increase the stage size so i can put an opaque larger image in the background and have the other images rotate on top of it. when i made the stage larger i'm having difficulty selecting the other photos so i can center them back on the on the stage. i was able to get the first image centered but i only see the outline of the other images.
View 3 Repliesi am trying to get an empty movieclip to center after a jpg loads into it. the images load, but they don't center. my first attempt (using loadMovie) would read the size too quickly and would only center after a second click. i thought using a MovieClipLoader would work, but my leftEdge always returns 350. i'm getting a 0 value for _width.
on a related topic, i want to apply a DropShadowFilter to the same empty movieclip.i haven't tried it with the MovieClipLoader, but it didn't work using loadMovie. any ideas on that? if i have to, i can create a generic dropshadow and position and scale it accordingly, but again, i will need to be able to read the size and position of the empty movieclip.
Code:
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var mclListener:Object = new Object();[code]...
I am needing to load an external image (probably jpg) into a movie. I am using an empty movie clip, giving it an instance name and the code:
Code:
instance1.loadMovie("image.jpg");
What I also need to do is be able to either place that image in a specific location on the stage or just center it. Any advice you can give me on that?
I am attempting to do something like this: Use two movie clips. One is a holder that contains the second movie clip, which is where the image is actually being loaded. Then, I am using the following math:
Code:
instance1.isntance2.x - instance1._width/2 instance1.isntance2.y - instance1._width/2
Does this look like it would work? Is there anyway I can set instance1 to have a width that is equal to the size of the main movie (1024 x 768)?

I'm working on a fullscreen application that doesn't run flash on the browser. Running Flash player 10. When you open the file, I have fscommand to run fullscreen, the flash file is built at 1280 x 800, and I have an image (menu screen) that starts off the flash file. I'm trying to find a way to center the image to the native SCREEN resolution, not the flash resolution. Is that possible?
I have this code running on the menu MC:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this._x = Stage.width /2;
this._y = Stage.height /2;
}
I've tried other variations of this, and no luck. On my 1280x800 native resolution monitor, it's great. Tested it, and it works. However, if I run the same file on a 1920x1080 monitor, the image is on the lower right hand corner. Also, the image at the moment has a center anchor point, but I'm sure you realized by my simple code. Also, just escaping the fullscreen mode, and scaling the window also screws up the formula. So I'm not sure what I can do to make it dead center no matter the screen res, or size of window. The reason I need to do this, is also because there are times where I have to change the flash resolution, and I don't want to go into the image everytime to adjust the center.
I've been going through the tutorials and forum trying to build a photo slideshow. I managed to get the slideshow working with buttons, but am really stuck with trying to center the images ... I'm using portrait and lanscape images, and want them both to be vertically and horizontally centered in a 504x504 moive.

[code]This script is for a loader image gallery in flash, as part of a class assignment. What happens is that in flash, when I open the swf file, the initial image (images/nair_evanescentautumn.png) will load fine. However, clicking on any thumbnail image (including the exact same images/nair_evanescentautumn.png), will result in an error saying the file cannot be found.I cannot figure out why it is doing this... I've tested it over. Clicking each thumbnail does go to the correct position in the two separate functions. All said full-size image links are in the folder images/, and replacing the initial loader image will load the other images in place of the default one. However, clicking on any thumbnail still results in URL not found, even though everything works correctly.[code]Before anyone asks why I'm putting this kind of content into a flash site, I'm not--this is only for a class assignment. I'm just trying to figure out why my images aren't loading right when I'm only doing the exact same thing in the functions as I am on the other pages.Of note, commissions.swf has the exact same feature, just with swf files loaded instead, and it works perfectly fine. home, traditional, digital, and photography all have the image gallery, and all have the same issue (I only referenced one page because if I can fix one page I should be able to fix all of them).As for the artworks, they are all my fiance's. The website design was built for her, and I used the website design for this project because I didn't want to have to build an entirely new interface design. Since the project also required a gallery, I felt that this interface would work just fine.

I will include a link to my project thus far: Final Project First of all, ignore the music/mp3 items at the bottom of the stage. Those aren't wired up yet. When you click on a bike image on the right, the reflection image should appear under the image... but it's not quite working out that way, and I've tried a few things.

I have some old AS2 code from a client that has a loader in scene 1 and the movie in scene 2. I built and external loader in a separate SWF but they want the loader, and movie to be in the same SWF but different timelines. I figured I could build scene 1 with two frames. The first frame would have this code on frame 1:
pBar.width = (Math.round(this.bytesLoaded/this.bytesTotal) *
100)
on frame 2 the code would be:
if(this.bytesLoaded == this.bytesTotal)
{
[Code]....
I figured I could use the timeline as a constant checker of bytes, but it seems that every time it gets to the if statement it halts, even though I have a else statement telling it to go back to frame 1

View 2 RepliesI did a website using actionscript 2 where the content was centered on the browser window both vertically and horizontally.
e.g. [URL]
all that took was a small piece of actionscript code that i can't remember now.
Now using actionscript 3, I can't find such code anywhere, instead I am guided towards using dreamweaver and css which seems like a nightmare for me to achieve. Such a fundamental thing should be possible with minimum effort surely?
Also, I have a similar problem where I'm trying to repeat tile or just add a textured background behind the stage. This also seems like I'm having to use html/css to achieve. I'd rather just use flash if possible??
I have loaded the images inside the movie clip, however, only one loader content aligns to the center,particularly the last one loaded in loop.How to align all loader content in a loop?other options with this kind of scenario.
