Actionscript :: Duplicate MovieClip From XML, One Each Other, With Different Sizes?
Jun 9, 2011
i have this script and i want to know how to duplicate the movieclips, one each other. This scrip works fine with images with same width, but when the sizes its diferent, dont work.
var dados:XML = new XML();
dados.ignoreWhite = true;
dados.load("xml/15anos.xml");
My problem is that when I click the letter movieclip it does create the duplicate as it should and it starts to drag the duplicate mc. However, when I release the clip it doesn't stop dragging? I realized that if I put onMouseUP event instead of onRelease it actually does stop dragging when I release the mouse. I would, however not like to use the onMouseUP event if possible.
Is it possible to use duplicateMovieClip to copy a movieClip into another movieclip, or is it only possible to duplicate it inside one and the same containermovieclip?
Is there a way to duplicate a MovieClip in AS3???I've tried all methods I found (in google) but weirdly none works.I am very pissed as people keep saying it works but it don't!!![code]
I was looking at a video tutorial, and in order to reference a MovieClip, the instructor used:
var mc:MovieClip = MovieClip(e.currentTarget);
What is the difference between using that, and just using:
var mc:MovieClip = e.currentTarget;
Also, is there any way to easily duplicate a MovieClip? (or any class for that matter) There was a function somewhere back there, but that created a dynamic class. I want an exact replica of the class and all it's properties without manually changing over each and every value.
In my movieclips, I already have functions such as the following: onClipEvent (enterFrame) { currentlocx = this._x; currentlocy = this._y; differencex = newX - currentlocx; differencey = newY- currentlocy; [Code] .....
How would I add other functions such as duplicateMovieClip(my_mc, "new_mc", 5); to the code. Where would I add them? I've tried adding them under (enterFrame) but my movieclip does not duplicate after every "x" seconds. In addition to this, I would like my movieclip to "disappear" whenever it is clicked.
I'm working on a creating a button that will create (preferably unlimited) duplicates of one movie clip. I have something that works for Flash, pre-2004, but I'd like to update it to Actionscript 2.
Ok, I know layers dont exist once compiled and that duplicated movieclips cannot be duplicated to new levels but I need some kind of work around here.
I cannot use the library as the movieclip I am duplicating is dynamically generated by actionscript (a graph based on user input over time) and thus cannot be made by me beforehand as it varies.
I need to somehow make a duplicate of this on a layer above the where the original was made, anyone know how this is possible?
how to use that code in flash as3 coding and please give me some example or link, how to create duplicate movieclip in as3 ? how to play/pouse one particular sound in flash as3 ?
I ve taken a look at some of the tutorials on here for this subject and I have made ot work using an on release function but i cant get it to work automaticly.What im trying to do is make this
How can i duplicate an unlinkaged movieclip that is dragged from library to stage in as3 ?
i want to write an class that gets instancename of an unlinkaged movieclip(a movieclip that it is't exported to as3) and duplicate that to certain Counts?
In my scene I've got a movieclip. If I press left the same movieclip should be duplicated a distance left of the first movieclip. If I press right, one should appear to the right of the first movieclip. If I press left again another duplication of the movieclip should show up on the left of the copied one on the left...
Ive seen this for loop to duplicate a movieclip.Its somethin.g i like to understand its square brackets. when are square brackets used instead of the circular brackets.
i am creating a frogger game, my problem is how to create a duplicate movieclip which is the car and how to generate it randomly that wont hit or overlap another car...here is my code and .fla
I have a movie clip, that has various codes attached to it to snap to areas of the screen. If I apply the duplicate movie clip command to this, the second instance will have a new name right? so how can I change the code that addressed the original movie clip to relate to the new instance with the new name?
Im creating a portofolio for myself, and im trying to make it database dependent, so i can update it through mysql and php. Im loading my vars from a database called portofolio, where i want to load a title, description, id, and a url to an image. In my fla i have the following code:
Code: //postition of the first thumbnail var nextx:Number = 25; var nexty:Number = 25;[code]....
i would like to have all the data from the DB imported using only one query, and then have it displayed in the thumbnail duplicates.
Ok having some issues with this:I create a new movieclip:this.createEmptyMovieClip("setClip1", this.getNextHighestDepth());and then I attach a bunch of the same movieclip from the library to my new clip:in a for loopthis.setClip1.attachMovie("dashLine","dashLine"+i, this.setClip1.getNextHighestDepth());This is all working fine. BUT, I try to duplicate this movieclip:_root.setClip1.duplicateMovieClip("setLeft1",thisgetNextHighestDepth());And it seems to work - I can trace the _x/_y values and such so it sees my new clip but nothing shows up. It's just blank.So my question I guess to start is this:When you useduplicateMovieClip, does it bring with it all of the attached movieclips as well or does it not include the attached clips as well?
I have a global movieclip named globalInstance, but now I need to duplicate this movieclip and position them 5 x cordinate away from each other , how can I do it?
i just want to duplicate moviclip and drag-drop the duplicate if the all images appear from xml,like kirupa's thumbnails image gallery i just want any one thing to duplicate thumb or image any one should be duplicate then my work will done
I have a global movieclip named globalInstance, but now I need to duplicate this movieclip and position them 5 x cordinate away from each other , how can I do it?public static var globalmc: DisplayObject; ( this is how I created the global mc)
Anyway, I want to duplicate a movieclip several times and then give them a motion guide(is this possible?). I can do the attaching part, im just stuck with actually making it move
If not how would you go about duplicating something and then setting it off in motion? I would just keep changing there x/y cords but its not a straight path
With this I would also need to start the duplicated clip a bit behind the previous movieclip so that it looks like one is following the other.
I have this script on a button: Code: on (release) { kast0.duplicateMovieClip("kast"+(num+1), 0); this["kast"+(num+1)]._x = kast0._x+((num+1)*15); this["kast"+(num+1)]._y = kast0._y; num++; }
And this in frame one: num = 0; "kast0" is a MC, that I want to duplicate (with every click), so there would be many of those in a row. But that script "erases" the "kast1" if it creates "kast2" currently I have my fla with only one frame and there is no other actions.
I tried searching for an answer to this on the forums and it seems you can't duplicate a movieclip that has a dynamically loaded jpg in it, I mean you just get a duplicate empty movieclip?
What I want to do is have 3 copies of a pic, each tinted a little differently, and have them converge and reveal the "composite" of this pic. Do I then have to use loadMovie 3 times?
