Mc.load Position
i am loading a series of images into a MC that has two buttons allowing the user to scroll thru the images.
however, after a user uses the scroll buttons, shifting the MC horizontally, the next time a user clicks a button loading a new series of images, the MC is shifted.
i tried adding the following code to try to reset the MC to its original position, but it doesnt seem to be working.

thumbnails.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x = 0;
};

any help is much appreciated

Load Movie Position HELP Please
I’m loading an external .swf file into my website. The button I am using is nested under 2 movie clips. Here is my dilemma I need to be able to position my movie, If I add a movie clip where the button is nested, give it an instance name then have the .swf load into it, it says “loaded 100%” and then doesn’t play the movie. The way I have it set up now it loads it and then plays but I can position it anywhere. Here is the code on the button.

on (release) {
loadMovie("Shop_Scene 1.SWF",2);

So is there a way to use action scripting to give it a position on the Stage?

Load Button To Certain X, Y Position?
hi guys,


Code:
stop();

this.createEmptyMovieClip("flag1holder", this.getNextHighestDepth());
flag1holder.createEmptyMovieClip("flag1container",this.getNextHighestDepth());
flag1holder.flag1container.attachMovie("BUTTflag1");
flag1container._x=10;
flag1container._y=10;
break;
}
yes this code doesn't work. i need to load a non-component button (BUTTflag1) and i want it to load at a defined position on the stage. i would prefer it didn't have to be loaded into movieclips, but if thats what it takes then ok cool.

please please please help guys, i know this is probably elementary stuff.

thanks in advance!

Set Correct X And Y Position Of MovieClip To Load Into?
hello,

i am loading an external swf into a movieclip in my main movie. the main movie and external swf are exactly the same size. most of the time it works just fine, but sometimes, part of the loaded movie seems to load in the top left of the screen (sort of like a graphic glitch, all of the movie still loads where it is supposed to but i sometimes get this situation). can someone tell me the proper way to set the coordinates of the movie clip i am loading into so that i may possibly prevent this from happening? the tute on macromedia's site is a bit confusing. do i set the x and y position by clicking the movieClip once and setting it to 0 and 0 or do i right click the movieClip and select "edit in place" and then set the x and y positions to 0? thanks in advance...

Load Movie Into A Specific X Y Position
How's it going everyone? I need to know how to load a movie into my main SWF file at a certain X Y position.

Here's my problem:

I have my main template file & I need to load a slideshow into it at a certain X Y position. My "temporary" solution is to simply make the slideshow the same size as the main file & load it via getmovie. Like I said, that's great for a "temporary" solution. But I will soon be using SWISHpix for all of my slideshows. So, I need to know how to load my slideshow into a certain X Y position. I have tried to create an empty movieclip and just load the movie into that, but to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thumbnails Change Position On 2nd Load -->
Hi everyone, this is my first post in this great site.
I'm building an XML based gallery, and I used the kirupa tutorials for that (both of them).
but I wanted a grid look for the thumbnails and I found this great post by ikim just for that:
http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthre...l+gallery+grid

So I managed to suit the code to my gallery and everything is going good.
but there is one problem:
when I press the button that loads the XML (WITH THE THUMBS), they load like they supposed to:

thumbs1.jpg

but when I press again on the button, they load like this:

thumbs2.jpg

and stays like this.. Why is that?

here is the complete code I use to load the images and thumbnails:

description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbnails[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbnailer(i);
}
firstImage();

Load And Position A Child Movie Clip
Hi all!

I am currently making a mini-game using Flash.
Well, I got a silly question, just wondering if anyone can take some time to answer me =P

In my game, when the player click a button, I loads a child movie clip into the current movie clip, at level1
and want to position this child movie clip at a specified location.
I used the following script, attached to a button, to do the task.

on (release) {
loadMovieNum ("childMovie.swf", 1);
setProperty ("_level1/", _x, "300");
setProperty ("_level1/", _y, "280");
}

But when I test the game, as I click the button, the movie loaded and position at the (300, 280) coordinate, and immediately it re-position to (0, 0) again.
Everytime I clicked that button, the childMovie go to (300, 280) and then back to (0, 0) again...
Alternatively, I use the following scripts instead

on (press) {
loadMovieNum ("childMovie.swf", 1);
}
on (release) {
setProperty ("_level1/", _x, "300");
setProperty ("_level1/", _y, "280");
}
The output seems normal and the childMovie doesn't re-position. But when I keep holding down the mouse button, the childMovie stay at (0, 0) and go to (300, 280) as I release the button. This's not wat I expect...

Well, the only thing I want to do is to load a movie at (300, 280) everytime I click the button...
Can anyone give me some suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

Load External File And Position It Correctly
Hello

Working with Flash MX 2004, I have an illustration of a TV screen with some dvd boxes next to it. When I click on a dvd box, I want an external swf with an embedded video called 'video.swf' to load onto the TV screen.

How??!!!

SoundChannel.position - Trouble Triggering Event Based On .position
I would like to trigger an addChild event when my mp3 reaches a certain point.

My trace statements will only fire if I use <= but not ==

The goal is to add text to the stage when the MP3 has reached one second, what am I missing?

Ultimately there will be several trigger marks I need to hit along the MP3.


ActionScript Code:
var buffer:SoundLoaderContext = new SoundLoaderContext(10000);var welcome:Sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("Intro.mp3"), buffer);var welcomesc:SoundChannel = welcome.play();addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, playMessage);function playMessage(event:Event):void{trace(Math.floor(welcomesc.position));if (welcomesc.position == 1000)    {        trace("NOW!!!!!!!");    }    else    {        trace("WAIT-------------");    }welcomesc.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundComplete);}

But can I place an empty MC on the stage and define the position of every single MC with _x and _y IN RESPECT TO THE POSITION OF THE EMPTY MC - so that ALL movieclips will change their position when I move the empty mc?

Thanks for helping

[F8] Control Position Of Playhead In Movieclip By Position Of A Button
I am fairly new to actionscripting and just need a little help.

I have a bar which has a slideable block on it. When this block is dragged, to the left/right i want it to control the playhead inside another movieclip.

For example, when the block is to the far left, the playhead (of my movieclip) will be at the first frame. When the block is dragged to the right it will play the movieclip at the speed that the block is being moved and when it is at the far right it will be on the last frame of the movieclip. And when the block is dragged to the left it will play the movie backwards at the same speed etc...

It is just like the scrubber bars that are in media players, but instead of playing an actual video, i want to play the movieclip which is of an animation.

How would I do this?

Thanks

Flash Y Position Converted To Browser Scroll Position
I have a Flash movie that makes an fscommand call to the HTML page, and via Javascript, it moves the browser window scroll position down. I need to be able to scroll down to a position that coincides with a Y position on my Flash page, but I can't seem to figure out how to convert coordinates from a Flash Y position to a browser-window vertical scroll position. I hope this makes sense. Does anyone know how to do this? (I have all the code working to do this, except for this coordinate issue. That's the only part I need.)

Example:

Code:
myMC.onRelease = function() {
//Command to Javascript function in html doc
//Scroll down in browser to Y pos specified
//This scrolls down to 1000 position within browser window but
//but does NOT equate to a Y position of 1000 in .swf movie
//even if .swf movie is at 0,0 left & top margins within browser
fscommand("scrollToAnchor",1000);
};
Ultimately, what I am trying to do is simulate anchor points from HTML (not anchor points in Flash to go 'Back'), whereby you have a link at the top of the page, and you click it and it takes you somewhere else lower on the same page. Then you have a link there that says "Back to top", and it takes you back to the top of the page, etc.

Any ideas?
