Full Screen Flash Positioning Of Movies
hi does anyone know of a good tutorial which concentrates on placing movie clips at the edge of a full browser flash site?
I have seen it alot on sites.http://www.favouritewebsiteawards.com/ for example
I have tried it before but have used the on stage resize listener function. This caused problems when the site initially loads as it requires the size of the stage to change before operating. I have had feedback that on some peoples computers the function did not work when the site loaded but only when they resized their screen, even though I used the
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
on the first frames of the site.
I have been looking everywhere.

thanks

Positioning Externally Loaded Movies In Flash 5
Hi, posted this previously to little avail....

I'm having problems, positioning movies that have been loaded in externally, I've looked at it over and over and still no joy, I'm using the following code:

loadMovieNum("externals/level1.swf", 2);
_level2._x = 500;
_level2._y = 500;

I gather I need to ensure the movie is loaded before I can position it - how does one check for this ?

I am still learning so it's all rather new.

Many thanks in advance...

Positioning New Movies
Hi guys

I am using this code:

onClipEvent (load) {
    for (i=1;i<_root.categories.length;i++){
        _root.attachMovie("newCategoryButton","image_" + i + "_0",i);
        setProperty ("image_" + i + "_0", _x, 60);
    }
}

to create new movie clips in my movies. The thing is they all appear in the top left corner and I can't move them anywhere else. I have tried setProperty as above, image_1_0._x = 60 and have even tried writing a function inside the movie clip to move it.

How do I put it where I want it?

Thanks

Help With Positioning Loaded Movies.
I have created a new symbol on a new layer, then I have added the load movie actionscript to load a movie that is in the same folder as the fla file. The moviel loads just fine but it positions itself at the top left side of the page, not where I have placed the symbol which it is replacing/playing in. How o how can I move the movie to the correct part of the page. I have been fiddling with it for hours.
Many thanks to those who answer

[F8] Duplicating Movies And Positioning
Hi, I'm looking for a solution to this problem.
I have a movie clip which is being loaded onto the stage, it uses xml data to display thumbnails. The xml file has 12 thumbnails, so the stage will have 12 duplicates of the container movie clip. I can get them displayed in a straight line along the x-axis however I need 3 rows of 4, and I can't make it work.

This is what I've got so far.

Quote:

myXML=new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite=true;
myXML.onLoad=function(ok){
if (ok){
//process data
allData=this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(i=0;i<allData.length;i++){
newPiece=thumbHolder_mc.attachMovie('template','pi ece'+i,i);
newPiece._x=i*125

newPiece.heading_txt.text=allData[i].firstChild.firstChild
//trace(allData[i].firstChild.firstChild);

}
}else{
trace('can't find file');
}
}
myXML.load('xml/gallery1.xml');

newPiece._x=i*125 is the part which adds the movie clips in a straight line of 12 (i being 12 and 125 being the width) but I can't limit the x amount to 4 movie clips and start again, from 5-8 on a specified y value.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

Positioning Dulplcated Movies On A Loop?
I am using the code below to create a row of duplicated movies... I need to adapt this script to create a row again but 2 high ie movie numbers
1357....
2468....

or 1458...
2367...

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Cheers Oll

onClipEvent (load) {
// create 4 movie clips
for (i=1; i<=_root["seriesCount"]; ++i) {
// attach the movie clip
duplicateMovieClip (_root.home.pannel003.panel.portfolio.asp.host.mov ie, "movie"+i, +i);
// set its position
_root.home.pannel003.panel.portfolio.asp.host["movie"+i]._x = i*126;

Loading External Movies, Then Positioning Them?
Loading an external swf onto the movie is easy, yes? I was wondering if it is possible to move the position of the second swf while in the root of the movie?

Normally the second movie or movie that is being loaded, just plays reletive to where it was on its original movie.

Just curious if it is possible to move the position in the root via some actionscript or something and if so, how?

Thanks guys...

Positioning Loaded Jpegs Within Movies
I've loaded a jpg into my movie using loadMovieNum to place it on a layer. This works okay. However, it automatically appears in the top left hand corner of the movie. The script is attached to a button which calls up the image.

on (release) {
loadMovieNum("001.jpg",10);
}

Does anyone know if i can give the image an exact position within the movie at the time of loading?

Positioning Multiple Attached Movies.
Okay here is what i have so far. (it works)
this coding is places on frame 2of a movieclip and is played to frame 3 then stopped with the randomly loaded movie stored on frame 3 (might be useful info, or maybe not.)

//Makes "e" random number within 1 - 6.
e = Math.ceil(Math.random()*6);

//adds the randomly called movieclip and positions it to the screen.
adde1 = _root.attachMovie("enemy"+e,"enemy1",1);
adde1._x=280;
adde1._y=200;

what i am having problems with is trying to load more then 1 movieclip to the screen with different co-ordanants.

i have tried

//Makes "e" random number within 1 - 6.
e = Math.ceil(Math.random()*6);

//adds the randomly called movieclip and positions it to the screen.
adde1 = _root.attachMovie("enemy"+e,"enemy1",1);
adde1._x=280;
adde1._y=200;

adde2 = _root.attachMovie("enemy"+e,"enemy2",1);
adde2._x=300;
adde2._y=180;

adde3 = _root.attachMovie("enemy"+e,"enemy3",1);
adde3._x=320;
adde3._y=160;

but with that code only the 1 movieclip gets attached (the bottom 1) what is the problem ? how do i have flash read them seperately andposition them seperately

thank for any help.

Positioning Movies Inside Of A ScrollPane
Hi All,

This is my first posting so I hope it all makes sense.

I saw on a website a "zoom" feature for a movie clip inside of a ScrollPane.

On my movie I have a ScrollPane in the first frame of the main movie. Then I load my clip (clipa) into the scroll pane and everything works fine. I have created a zoom button (in the main movie) which goes to frame 2 of the main movie with a larger version of the imported clip named(clipa-mid) into the scroll pane. When I click this button the movie loads with scroll bars because of the size but...( now here's my question ) the imported movie (clipa-mid) is registed on the top left corner of the movie. I want it to be able to be loaded in the center of the movie.

Here is the link to the site where I saw this done.

Any help on this topic would be great.

Thanks

Positioning External Movies In Your Main Movie
How would you go about positioning a external movie (a preloader) that's smaller than your main movie, without loading it into a movieclip? Simply using code? Math? x/y coordinates?

Here's the deal:
I have a small preloader.swf about 150pxX25px that loads into my containerMovie.swf until my other external movies are fully loaded. But I'd like this preloader to load into the middle of the movie. Is there a simple way to do this?

Thanks, Matt

Here's the code I have to give you an idea of what I'm trying to do:

stop();
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();

myMCL.addListener(myListener);

//-----------------PRELOADER CODE----------------------\

myListener.onLoadProgress = function (target_mc, loadedBytes, totalBytes) {
_level50._visible = true;
var preloadPercent:Number = Math.round((loadedBytes / totalBytes) * 100);
_level50.preloader.gotoAndStop(preloadPercent);
}

myListener.onLoadComplete = function (target_mc) {
_level50._visible = false;
}

//-----------------/PRELOADER CODE----------------------\

//------------Main Movies Here-----------------------\
myMCL.loadClip ("preLoader.swf",50)
;

//------------Main Movies Here-----------------------\

Positioning Movies Within Other Movies
---positioning movies within other movies------

I used a program to convert a .mov file into a .swf file. My plan was to then insert that movie into a flash website.
The three things that went wrong are that the creater of the program incripted VID2SWF on the top of the movie, I can't edit the movie, and when i try to load the movie into my flash background i can't position it where i want to.

Why Isnt This Working?(dynamicly Positioning Attached Movies)
for (g=1; g < 13; g++){
["tick" + g]._height = 40;
["tick" + g]._x = clockFace._x;
["tick" + g]._y = clockFace._y;
}

thx

MC Positioning To Stage Borders In 100x100, Center Aligned Movies
I'm always using "100% x 100% noscale" settings while creating Flash sites. A few years ago I've learned how to position some movie clips to the stage borders. The only solution was to make "TL" movie align. But I like center align (don't ask why, I have some reasons). I tried to calculate right position with center align, but without success.

A few days ago I tried again and was surprised how simple the solution is. It's so simple that I don't believe no one uses it already, but I still haven't seen it anywhere.

This example is if you have movie clip 800x600 and 100x100 scene with center align.

PHP Code:

movie._y = Math.round((Stage.height/2-300)*-1);//topmovie._x = Math.round((Stage.width/2+400))-movieWidth;//rightmovie._y = Math.round((Stage.height/2+300))-movieHeight;//bottommovie._x = Math.round((Stage.width/2-400)*-1);//left

Dynamic Positioning For "no-stretch" Movies

Hi all,

I am trying to create a fly-in effect for a website splash-screen (horror)...I want to keep the images all same-size but stretch the background, this aint no thang really..here's the main beef:

My problem lies in initially positioning the element off-screen using actionscript. I have attached a listener to the stage which checks for resizing and I was hoping to use these values to position each movie clip and move them central. Unfortunately this isn't working as i wanted it..

Can anyone explain how to relate the stage width to the overall viewable area, provide a link or some portable code that will position an item off-stage, both right and left sides?

Many many thanks in advance..

Controlling Flash Movies From Within Other Flash Movies, Contained With Frames...
ok, the title was a bit of a mouthful but hey, i was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this problem :

i know how to control content being loaded into frames, from within a flash movie (using get url) but, i'm not sure how to go about calling various parts of a flash movie that is situated within a different frame with the html page, from the one it's being called from.

so, for example, say i have a set of buttons within one flash movie, that when clicked moves the timeline in the other flash movie (within a different frame) to frame 5 or whatever. see what i mean?

would it be something like this?

on (release) {

getURL("name of html page.html", "name of lable/ number of frame within timeline", "name of frame flash movie is contained within");

}

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 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.

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.

[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)

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.

Ralative Positioning A Flash Object
Hi there.
I'm having a problem with positioning a flash object in my site.
The flash object is sitting inside a div element with a relative position. The problem is the flash object is sometimes placed inside the div and sometimes align to the left end of the browser. I think it gut something to do with the swf file loading duration (maybe loaded after the page is already displayed.
You can see an example here:

(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
Jeff

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!

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
