Flash :: Ralative Positioning A Flash Object

Browser Resize And Object Positioning
I'm currently attempting to make a function that repositions all my display objects on the screen anytime the user resizes the browser. At the moment I only have two objects created, a .FLV and a .PNG

I'm using BulkLoader for all my loading needs. My dilemma is this:

The .FLV repositions as intended perfectly when the browser is resized, but the .PNG will not reposition from it's original coordinates. I receive no errors when I debug. Any thoughts?

Code:
package port {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.media.*;
import flash.net.*;
import br.com.stimuli.loading.*;
import caurina.transitions.*;

public class Portfolio extends MovieClip {

var loader : BulkLoader = new BulkLoader("main-site");
var bgVideo : Video = new Video(737, 600);
var rememberIcon : Bitmap = new Bitmap();

public function Portfolio() {
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
this.stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);

loader.add("background.flv", {type:"video", pausedAtStart:true});
loader.add("iconRemember.png", {id:"remember"});
loader.addEventListener(BulkLoader.COMPLETE, allLoaded);
loader.start();
}

public function allLoaded(e:Event):void {
bgVideo.x = (stage.stageWidth / 2) - (bgVideo.width / 2);
bgVideo.y = (stage.stageHeight / 2) - (bgVideo.height / 2);
var bgNS:NetStream = loader.getNetStream("background.flv");
bgVideo.attachNetStream(bgNS);
bgVideo.smoothing = true;
addChild(bgVideo);
bgNS.resume();

var rememberIcon : Bitmap = loader.getBitmap("remember")
rememberIcon.x = (stage.stageWidth / 2) - (rememberIcon.width / 2);
rememberIcon.y = (stage.stageHeight / 2) - (rememberIcon.height / 2);
addChild(rememberIcon);
}

public function resizeHandler(event:Event):void {
bgVideo.x = (stage.stageWidth / 2) - (bgVideo.width / 2);
bgVideo.y = (stage.stageHeight / 2) - (bgVideo.height / 2);
rememberIcon.x = (stage.stageWidth / 2) - (rememberIcon.width / 2);
rememberIcon.y = (stage.stageHeight / 2) - (rememberIcon.height / 2);
}
}
}

Choosing The Point For Object Positioning?
Hello

In the property of each object, I can set the X and Y position.
This coordinate seems to be for the upper_left corner of the object.
Is it possible to apply the X and Y position to the bottom right corner (for example) ?

Thanks

Intervals Using Relative Object Positioning?
Hey guys check this code out:

ActionScript Code:
function moveClip() { if (myClip_mc._x < 400) { // the _x value is less than 400, so increase _x by 1px, // and let setInterval execute this function again myClip_mc._x += 1; // move the clip 1 px to the right } else { // the _x value is greater than 400, // so stop the setInterval from executing anymore clearInterval(myInterval); } // end "if myClip_mc._x < 400" } // end moveClip()// do this when "myButton_btn" is clickedmyButton_btn.onPress = function() { // execute the "moveClip" function every 10 milliseconds myInterval = setInterval(moveClip, 5);} // end myButton_btn.onPress()

I was wondering, is there a way to change if (myClip_mc._x < 400) { to a relative position of myClip_mc.
I mean, i want myClip_mc to move 100px from it's current position everytime the button is clicked. Instead of only moving it
if it's x position is less than 400.
So it needs to somehow check it's current position everytime the button is clicked and then make it shift from that position.

I know this is a long winded way of doing it but i want it this way so i can use it for something different.

Any ideas?

Stage Object Movie Positioning In Corner
hello,

does anyone have any advice on this. I am trying to make it so that when a fullscreen movie loads a movie clip is positioned in the top left corner of the full screen flash site.
This code is on the first frame of my flash movie.

It works when i resize the window but not when the movie loads for the first time in an existing window. meaning some poeple cannot see the menu bar .
does this code work on all browsers?

ActionScript Code:
fscommand("allowscale", "false");
Stage.scaleMode = "showALL";
Stage.originalWidth = Stage.Width;
Stage.originalHeight = Stage.Height;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.getLeft = function() {
return -1*(this.width-this.originalWidth)/2;
};
Stage.getTop = function() {
return -1*(this.height-this.originalHeight)/2;
};
Stage.addListener(titleblocknav);
Stage.addListener(preloader);
titleblocknav.onResize = function() {
this._x = Stage.getLeft()+50;
this._y = Stage.getTop()+25;
};
preloader.onResize = function() {
this._x = Stage.getLeft()+330;
this._y = Stage.getTop()+48;
};

can anyone spot any mistakes?

Thanks

Positioning Objects, And Object Registration Coordinates.
Thanks for taking the time to read my query.

Here's my problem...

I import png's to my library, and align everything in place where I desire it to be on the mainstage. Next, I distribute each object to it's own respective layer - each object maintaining it's respective X and Y coordinates. I then create a new movie clip, cutting the objects and from the main-stage area, pasting them into the new movie clip. Once I setup my tweening, alpha level etc, I have a perfectly working movie clip that I then place in a single frame of the timeline on the mainstage area.

However, when I preview the animation, the movie clip inside the single frame of the main timeline is not positioned in the center of the stage, but elsewhere resulting in the movie being clipped.

Logically, it would make sense that the original alignment established in setting up the main stage would remain consistent when cut and pasted "in place" to a new movieclip, sadly that's not the case. Instead of the boundaries of the main stage remaining visible when editing a movie, they disappear and the positional coordinates of the content become subjective (or so it appears).

I really have no idea how to fully explain it, but it seems like flash wasn't designed to have things done in a logical manner, but adheres to a system that has become familiar over time, which requires the users to learn to adapt to that system. There seems to be virtually no documentation that I've been able to find that explains the details of "registration" in a clear and concise manner.

Any helps would be great appreciated.

Thanks.

Positioning An Object With The "info" Panel
Hey y'all!

I have a problem with positioning an object in the upper left corner (x=0 and y=0) of the stage.

When I do this using the "info" panel, the object, instead of going to the upper left corner of the stage, will place itself in the exact middle of the stage.

Does any one know why this is and how I can solve it? Is there a way to solve it using ActionScript?

Thanx,
Maurits

Positioning A Pop-up In Flash
I have a site with multiple pop-ups containing information, forms,etc... right now the pop-ups come up in the exact center of the stage... but I'd like them to be in the upper right. How do I do that?

Here's what I have to bring up the pop-ups now:

on (release) {
_root.popup_pressed = 1;
_root.scrHEIGHT = 280;
_root.scroller.scroller.gotoAndStop(2);
_root.TM_title = "Horse Trails Survey";
_root.READ = 1;
_root.scroller.gotoAndPlay("s1");
}

Positioning My 'pop-up' Flash Window?
I am at a loss how to make my 'new window' created from the index page centre to my/the screen (or how iI would give it exact position commands??) I have an 'index' page that has a 'get url' command which sizes the new window to fit the shape of the swf file i created - but often it positions it half on half of the screen?

Please can anyone advise me on what I have missed - thanks

Aligning And Positioning In Flash
I'm doing a site in flash and I've encountered a strange thing. I want to acurately place an item on the stage but when I type in the position I want in for the X or Y in the info palate, Flash changes it. Like if I type in 30 flash changes it to 29.8, no matter what. But if I type in 29.8 for both items, when I render the movie the items are not aligned.

I can not use the align palate for this because it is a whole grid I am creating so if I align one row or column then another wont be aligned. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Flash Websites Positioning
hi everyone

got an idea, and would like to know your opinion if it's worth trying (as I'm not sure if it is possible and how to do it

so.. Google has already started to index flash sites using the text inside the .swf files but.. it doesn't index the site but a single flash file and the link leads to this .swf file not the website.. the effect of such a link could be dissapointing

so maybe the .swf could check if it is opened in it's native site and if not then re-open the whole website in the current browser window..

and now are the two basic questions:
1. does it make any sense?
2. if yes how to do it?

will be really greatfull for any ideas and opinions

Positioning Buttons In Flash With AS3
My level of AS3 understanding: beginner (I am not a programmer, never used AS1 or AS2).

I am building a photo slide show Flash website from scratch and I am starting with the button. I am learning AS3 and Flash in the process and I am stuck at the beginning.

I created a custom button (actually 2) using this tutorial:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMzhJOCY6ik

(Now, I realize I could have used AS3 to create the button(s), however I decided not to at this point.)

Like that tutorial, the button embeds several movie clips and works exactly as I want it to: animated roll over and click.

What I want to do next is to create something similar to the YouTube (or other) movie player with just one button (not the entire bar at the bottom, just the animated full screen button).

1. Click on the button (let's call it A) and go full screen
2. On full screen button A turns into button B (and vice versa on Normal screen, just like the full screen button on YouTube)
3. Button A/B positions itself always in the same location onto the stage, no matter what the size of the browser is (that is some specific distance from the bottom right corner)
3. The size of the button remains the same while the size of the photo slide (when that is created) scales with the stage which is the same size of the browser window (or full screen, with cropping). Similar to a direct YouTube link:
http://www.youtube.com/v/hMzhJOCY6ik&hl=en

Now, I know this is the easiest part of the site, the slide show will be the hardest, but I am having difficulty in finding a good tutorial that teaches me this with some clean and simple AS3 code.

All I know at this point is that I create a package, import some classes, create classes, functions and variables. I get the general idea and I can create a logical flow. I still do not quite understand the syntax.

Are there any tutorials out there that can help me with this?

I can just start with positioning one of the buttons on the stage, I think that should be enough code for me to digest.

I want to understand this not just copy and paste...

Thanks.

Flash Movies And CSS Positioning
Is there any css tricks to get a flash movie to butt up tightly to the upper left hand corners? I can sort of get it to work in Netscape and Foxfire. IE is stubborn though. Has anyone done this before?

Thanks

Flash Resizing And Re-positioning
I have a flash app located at

http://www.triniscene.com/tsv7/galleries/?page=flash

now I want the flash dimensions to set to any reasonable size dimension in the HTML...while the movie adapts to the Stage dimensions. The problem I am having seems to be a browser issue. While in IE the movie takes the upper left hand side...it doesn't in FF...

I have the stage set to Stage.scaleMode = 'noScale'; and then set the _x and _y to 0...

what is the issue with FF here and is there any work around?

Positioning External SWF In Flash
I'm having a lot of trouble doing a simple positioning of an external SWF with AS3. I have a timeline animation that this external file plays in. It works but I can't get it to play in the right position.
Thanks for any help you can give!

The code I'm using is as follows. I tried:
thisLoader.x = 500
thisLoader.y = 500

but it has no effect...

Attach Code

// Part I -- Loading an external swf file and casting it as a useable movie clip

var thisMovieClip:MovieClip;

var thisLoader:Loader = new Loader();
thisLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, doneLoading);
thisLoader.load( new URLRequest("OBRotation.swf") );
thisLoader.x = 500
thisLoader.y = 500

function doneLoading(evt:Event):void {
thisMovieClip = MovieClip(thisLoader.content);
stage.addChild(thisMovieClip);

thisMovieClip.stop();
}

Positioning Text In Flash
guys - im a bit wet behind the ears so please have mercy.

im working on positioning text so that it comes out crisp and clean. is the only way of doing this letter by letter? it seems so cumbersome, i bet there must be some tricks or shortcuts?

but then, unless i "break apart" the letters and do them individually, a few always end up blurred.

thoughts?

any help would be fantastic.

Positioning Flash Movie In A <div>
Hi all,

I want to place my .swf in the header of my CMS Page. But I'm having trouble positioning it in Intenet Explorer. I want it to show be vertical aligned at the bottom of a div.

This is the code I tried:

Code:
<div valign="bottom">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="370" height="41" id="Header" align="bottom">

</object>
</div>
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[Flash 8] DuplicateMovieClip Positioning
I am having a problem that seems similar to the one shown here: http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=215026

The Scenario: I started trying to learn Flash last week, and I feel like I've covered most of the basics. Pushing forward, I've been giving myself little tasks that I'll eventually combine into a larger project. Right now, I want to mouseover an object, and have a number of movie clips appear in a circle around it. So far, I have a test object to hover over, and a test clip to duplicate.

The Code: I only want this to happen once, so I'm using a global variable to determine if it's already happened, which is set to 0 when the swf loads. The Actionscript is on the icon clip.

ActionScript Code:
this.onRollOver= function(){ if (circleMade == 0) {// Number of clips to duplicate var nItems = 5;// Radius of circle var circleRad = 45; for (i=0;i<5;i++){ var currentMenuButton = "roundMenuButton" + i; duplicateMovieClip (_root.roundMenuButton, currentMenuButton, _root.getNextHighestDepth());// Determine angle of rotation for current clip var nAngle = ( 360 / nItems ) * (1 + i);// Set X and Y based on rotation and radius var nX = circleRad * Math.cos(nAngle); var nY = circleRad * Math.sin(nAngle); currentMenuButton._x = nX; currentMenuButton._y = nY; } } else {} _global.circleMade = 1;}}

The Problem: As you can see here (http://www.fishspeaker.com/motion/flashtest/index3.html), hovering over the center icon seems to do nothing . . . but wait! The small silver ball is indeed being duplicated, just in place. Checking the debug Object List confirms this - what am I doing wrong with the positioning?

Feel free to ignore the window that pops up when the icon is clicked - that's another project entirely.

Positioning Problems In Flash
Hi!

I don't know if I'm just plain stupid or if there are more people out there that have the same trouble I used to have with positioning mc's in flash, but I have now just discovered the solution!

I am talking about the difference in Flash between positions the Flash GUI uses and those used by ActionScript. Positioning in ActionScript doesn't always use the same coordinates as the GUI does, but as I said, I've found the solution (finally!):
When you select the mc and open the 'info' window, you see the x and y positions on the right and to the left of this (in the middle of the window) there is a small array of squares... which are clickable. These let you select the corner of the mc to use in setting the position. By selecting the top left square it will always use the top left corner, even when the origin of the mc sits in the middle!

Again, I'm risking my reputation here , but I gladly do so to make sure everyone knows about this, 'cause it's been driving me crazy for years!

I hope this information will also help someone alse out there...

Z-Index Positioning Flash
Hey,

This is either going to be a simple question, or a really ugly one ; )

I'm short on space in this project I'm working on, and I want to dynamically render a absolute positioned DIV on top of a flash 5 movie.

I've got the DIV, I've got the movie, but I can't find a way of making the DIV appear on top of the movie, instead of behind it.

Is there a trick to this, or is it just not possible. (netscape 6.2 and IE compatable way that is)

Absolute Positioning With Flash..

Positioning A Flash Movie...
Okay, now that I have my button issue cleared up, I have an even stranger problem.

I have a flash movie that is 128x374 pixels.
I want to put it into a frame that is exactly 128x374 pixels, and I set the frame to have border=0 on all four sides.

So it should fit, right?

Well, no. It looks like the movie needs to be moved one pixel to the left, and one pixel up in order to fit perfectly.

But the movie is using a .jpg that fits perfectly, outside of the flash movie.

But here is the strangest part - the movie still fits within the frame. It isn't as though the .jpg was off by a pixel when it was inside the flash movie. It was touching all four borders exactly. So why on earth is it not working properly?

Below, I have a link posted to a .zip file of the project. You can open the WithFlash.htm, and then the WithoutFlash.htm to see what I mean. It is the exact same .jpg file.

Flash Positioning And Opera
Hi,

I have the following problem... I've made a flash slide show that I want to include on my page. It works as it is supposed to but will display wrong in Opera 8.52 while IE and Firefox are OK. Does anybody have any idea what it can be, what am I doing wrong? There is no CSS styling appliedat all. The same happens with the html file published by Flash.

Many thanks in advance!

Flash In Html: Positioning Problem?
Hopefully you gurus can help me with this one...

I'm desigining a site in dreamweaver (html), with the menu made in Flash. I've imported it ok and everything works fine on my PC. The thing is, when I view it on other computers (namely the high end macs at uni) the flash menu sticks out to the side by 1 pixel.

This puzzels me, as it's fine on my PC and the flash menu is the exact same width as the html page. Is this flash anti aliasing?

I'd love to be able to resolve this.

Anyone have a clue?

Thanks.

Text Positioning Problem With Flash?
okay this problem is killing me so any help really appreciated. I have one movie clip that moves over another instance of the same clip then dissapears - because they are in the same position (yes they are!) and exactly the same clip! when the top one dissapears no one should notice! - but but.. the problem is the text (im using device fonts) - it seems that when you apply movement actions to a movie with text it renders the text in a certain way that is different from if you dont apply actions - the kerning is all different and so in fact is the line spacing! does anybody have an answer or is there any way to not use device fonts but still have the fonts not anti-aliased??

ive been working to solve this one for ages so please help you experts of flash you kings of new england!

Positioning Text Using CSS Over Flash Banner?
I have a flash banner and I would like to put non-flash items (such as text of jpeg) over the flash banner using CSS, but it doesn't show the layer of the non-flash item. The flash banner is actually "covering" what I want to put on the flash banner. Is this just how it is or is there a way i can conquer this?

(help Please) Mc Re-positioning Within Full Screen Flash
Hi...

just a quick question thats probably relaly easy to answer except it's got me stumped!
I'm working on my site with my flash movie which is stretched to fill the whole of the browser (did this through the publish settings). The content stays proportioned fine, and doesn't get all distorted...which is great and how I want it!

What I then want is a mc I have in my main movie to be positioned at the very bottom of the browser (so that whatever browser size people have the mc is right on the bottom edge). I would assume it's pretty basic and something similar to code:
onClipEvent (load) {
this._y = Stage.height-this._height;
}

...although obviously slightly different without the Stage.height bit as I want it at the bottom edge of the browser. any ideas?

thanks

Flash CS3 - Mac / PC Font Positioning Differences
Hello, I have a PC at work and a Mac at home and have found that there are differences with font rendering in Flash CS3 on each operating system.

The same .fla file will position fonts a few pixels differently on both OS's, these differences are retained after publish.

For instance, I can make a flash file on my PC with perfectly positioned fonts and after publishing, these fonts will look perfect on both PC and Mac (from the swf). If I then open the .fla on my Mac the fonts will be slightly off, and after publishing the fonts will be off on both the PC and on Mac (from the swf).

To check if this was just due to different versions of the font I tried installing a new font from the same TTF file on my Mac and my PC. The Problem still occurred.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Anyone got any suggested workarounds or am I going to need to always work in Parrellels at home!?

Thanks,

James

Flash Positioning In HTML Table
Can someone please tell me why on this page...

http://www.gregorypaige.com/online/index.html

...when viewed with a Mac looks fine, but when viewed with a PC the Flash animation on the left of me with the map etc. (315 px. by 425 px.) is positioned one pixel too high, overlapping the white table border? I don't even get how this is possible with the way the HTML is written.

Will someone please look at the code? It's very very simple and is probably something small I am just overlooking.

Thanks!

(partially Flash Related) Positioning Help
Hello. Again. I was wondering if anybody knows how, or has access to a tutorial on positioning your flash movie on the internet after you've published it to a html. When I open the html link, its all very left aligned, which I'm not liking, and I was wondering how would you go about positioning your movie like on home star runner (centered window with black background and the like).
On the topic of this, i'll add a previous post which went relatively unanswered. How do you change the actionscript so that the "getURL" comand does not open up a separate browser and instead just loads the information up on the smae page as the link? Sorry If i haven't made this cler, and any help would be gretly appreciated.
Thanks ants. Thants.

Flash And XML Image Gallery Positioning.
Hi

I am using Flash 8 for this and XML to create an external/dynamic image gallery. The problem i have is that when you drag to make the screen bigger or smaller the image moves position and does not stay central. Attached is the fla for you to look at as it doesnt make much sense when describing it!

Also is there anyway to add a movable/ change size with the picture black box around the images?

thanks for any help.

Flash Stage Resize And Positioning
I have a flash app located at

http://www.triniscene.com/tsv7/galleries/?page=flash

now I want the flash dimensions to set to any reasonable size dimension in the HTML...while the movie adapts to the Stage dimensions. The problem I am having seems to be a browser issue. While in IE the movie takes the upper left hand side...it doesn't in FF...

I have the stage set to Stage.scaleMode = 'noScale'; and then set the _x and _y to 0...

what is the issue with FF here and is there any work around?

Full Browser Flash Help With Positioning MC
So I've looked at Lee's tutorial and I can that working good but now I'm stuck. How do you place you movie clips in certain spots in the flash? (Someone else was asking the same question in theflashblog.com post)

For example how do I get a MC to be 100px from the top right and left? Or I want a MC to always be on the bottom and scale the width of the browser? (One of the example site I've seen is http://www.soleilnoir.net/ that people are in awww of)

I seen a lot of people asking similar questions so sorry if it's a repost. Thanks in advanced for the help :D
