Preloading Routine


is it possible to preload an external .swf from the main movie while the preloader routine stays in the main movie, not in the external clip? it does not work in my case ... I may do something wrong ...

I have a mc called "loader" on the main timeline in the main movie.
I want to preload an external .swf called "animation.swf"
on the first frame I have:

loader.loadMovie("animation.swf");
preloaderbar._xscale = 0;

on the second frame:

BytesTotal = loader.getBytesTotal();
BytesLoaded = loader.getBytesLoaded();
Bytes = Math.round(100*BytesLoaded/BytesTotal);
preloaderbar._xscale = Bytes;

on the third:

if (Bytes<100) {
Bytes = Bytes+1;
gotoAndPlay(2);
} else {
gotoAndStop(3);
}

the external clip is beeing loaded, ofcourse (loader.loadMovie("animation.swf"), but the progress bar is not increasing at all ....

What do I do wrong?

Preloading Routine Including Attached Movies?
hi,
can anybody help me with preloading problems. I have much content in movieClips that get attached, they get preloaded by the movie before the first frame, so I can't put a preload routine in front. now i want to load the whole thing into another movie or above and control the loading out of that movie. I can't find a way to do this, how do I get hold of the getBytesLoaded() und getBytesTotal of that Movie? please help me

Generalising A Routine
Hi,

I've developed a routine to magnify an image on rollover and shrink it again on rollout that I plan to use quite a lot. Parameters include size etc.

I'm fairly new to AS, but familiar with Lingo. What is the easiest way in Flash MX2004 Pro to match Director's easy application of a single script, with adjustable parameters, to numerous movieclips without having to paste the same code over and over again to each MC?

Need A Conversion Routine
I suck at math, so I'm scratching my head over this. I've got a controller for video playback. It's 320 pixels wide.

The _x for the playback head is 0 at the start of the video, 320 on the last frame. The user can drag the playback head to skip around in the video.

I need an algorithm to convert the _x of the playback head to the appropriate frame in the video. (Each video is a different length.)

Any takers?

Sort Routine?
Hello,

Here's my pb: i duplicate some MCs into 1 MCs, i also have a delete button that removes the duplicate MC if you click on it...
Now i was wondering how to do to always have the MCs to rename so they are always sorted.

MC.MC1
MC.MC2
MC.MC3
...

Not sure i'm so clear. Like if i remove MC2 of MC, i'd like MC3 to rename to MC2. This should work whatever clip and with whatever amount of MCs...
Any ideas how to do that?

Getting Out Of A Button On Press Routine
I've got an on press routine with serveral "IF" statements.

Is there a way of exiting a routine once a condition has been met.

I do a lot of VB and I would use EXIT SUB, is there an AS equivalent.

Many Thanks

[CS3] How To Make This Routine Dynamic?
Hi guys i have a form and upon clicking "edit" the textInput fields would becaue editable ..

so basically im trying to do this:


Code:
on(release){
tf_plantation.setStyle("borderStyle", "inset");
tf_plantation.enabled=true;
tf_plantation.editable=true;


}
tf_plantation is just one of 20 fields that i have to apply this AS code to..

i could simply hardcode it all.. but i was thinking of a way to make this easier... something like a function that i can call per textInput field.. like so:



Code:
enableInputs = function(tf){

eval(tf).setStyle("borderStyle", "inset");

}

ofcourse that didnt work..

i also tried


Code:
enableInputs = function(tf){

this[tf]setStyle("borderStyle", "inset");

}

That didnt work either.. eval and [] works great with dynamically setting variables or properties but doesnt seem to work w/ this one.. component stuffs perhaps?

Help Me Troubleshoot This Drawing API Routine
Hello all. I have a pretty simple script that allows you to draw multiple rectangles using the drawing API in MX. I need to create multiple MC containers, so that I can later do other functions to these areas.

Now, what I can't figure for the life of me is why the rectangles are drawing in the way they are. If you copy this script into a blank file and run it, you'll see what I mean. Why is it duplicating/replicating/echoing as you draw? If you debug and list Objects, it is creating the MCs properly, so where are these other lines coming from? I'm sure this is something simple to fix, that there is some recursion going on, but I can't troubleshoot it.

Helps me please...






Code:
drawLevel = 0;
drawOK = "yes";
this.onMouseDown = function() {
//
if (_root.drawOK == "yes") {
this.createEmptyMovieClip("rect"+drawLevel, drawLevel);
sx = _xmouse;
sy = _ymouse;
drawing = true;
drawLevel += 1;
}
};
this.onMouseMove = function() {
//
if (_root.drawOK == "yes") {
if (drawing) {
cx = _xmouse;
cy = _ymouse;
beginFill(0xFFCC00, 10);
lineStyle(1, 0xFFCC00, 100);
moveTo(sx, sy);
lineTo(sx, cy);
lineTo(cx, cy);
lineTo(cx, sy);
lineTo(sx, sy);
endFill();
}
}
};
this.onMouseUp = function() {
//
drawing = false;
};
stop();

Cant Get 'Movie Loaded' Routine To Work. Please Help.
Im working on a movie that loads a second movie that contains a series of images. The first movie then processes, resizes and displays the images on the second. Within this first movie there is a simple routine that checks the bytes loaded, etc. and is supposed to loop until the image movie is done loading.

It works fine offline but when I first load the movie online it shows that the image movie (i.e. its bytes) have been loaded but it wont display. Apparently, it continues the script before it's finished loading. If I refresh, the images are cached and it works fine.

Any help would be appreciated. If someone is willing to take the time, I could send them what I have if my description here isn't enough.

Also, I know I could easily set up a pre-loader at the beginning of each image movie that talks to the first but id like to avoid it if i can since I plan on having several image movies.

Please help,

-Joe http://www.indivision.net (see for yourself at what happens! goto ART-->FINE ART, then refresh... hehe)

KIOSK With Browser Clean Up Routine?
Hi,

I'm trying to make a standalone flash kiosk with a browser clean up routine. Which means that when a user has opened a browser (or several) from the kiosk and wondered of, leaving a 'mess' of browsers, I'd like to close them all after a certain time of inactivity ... I've been fumbling with both flash, and javascript alone, but can't seem to come up with a solution.

Has anyone got any ideas on how to do this? Or do anyone know if Director has the ability to control a browser?

ANY hinst or directions are very welcome ...

Good Routine Fails When Placed Inside A Listener
Hello,
I have a routine that dynamically loads photos into movie clips. It works fine. However, when I put the routine inside a listener, it does not work.
Here is the routine that loads the photos fine:

Code:
var photoNameArray:Array = Array(["images/abson.jpg"], ["images/cfs.jpg"], ["images/illusion.jpg"], ["images/indiancurry.jpg"], ["images/italiano.jpg"], ["images/tell.jpg"]);
var nImages:Number=photoNameArray.length;
var PhotoArray:Array=Array();
for (var i:Number = 0; i<nImages; i++) {
var photoMC = this.createEmptyMovieClip("photoMC"+i, i);
PhotoArray.push(photoMC);
var tmp:MovieClip = PhotoArray[i];
tmp.loadMovie(photoNameArray[i], i);
tmp._x=180+(i-1)*(210);
tmp._y=0;
}
Here is the exact same code inside a listener. I verified that the listener actually runs by placing a trace statement inside it. But no photos appear on the screen.

Code:
DGlistener = new Object();
DGlistener.cellPress = function(evt){
if(evt.target==AirplaneIndexPhotos_dg){
trace ("Listener was Fired");
var photoNameArray:Array = Array(["images/abson.jpg"], ["images/cfs.jpg"], ["images/illusion.jpg"], ["images/indiancurry.jpg"], ["images/italiano.jpg"], ["images/tell.jpg"]);
var nImages:Number=photoNameArray.length;
var PhotoArray:Array=Array();
for (var i:Number = 0; i<nImages; i++) {
var photoMC = this.createEmptyMovieClip("photoMC"+i, i);
PhotoArray.push(photoMC);
var tmp:MovieClip = PhotoArray[i];
tmp.loadMovie(photoNameArray[i], i);
tmp._x=180+(i-1)*(210);
tmp._y=0;
}
}
}
AirplaneIndexPhotos_dg.addEventListener("cellPress", DGlistener);
stop();
What am I missing?
Thanks for any help at all?

Can Anyone Help Please?... "Lucky Dip Button" + "Confirm" Routine
I have developed a Football Pools competition to raise funds for various Good Causes and found a programmer to create the attached Flash file. Unfortunately he was involved in a serious car crash and will be hospitalised for many weeks.
I apologise in advance - this may be a very inappropriate request ... I am not a programmer, just trying to find someone to help
The last 2 parts he was undertaking were to
1. create a "Lucky Dip" button that filled in randomly each of the required 15 choices .... to make life easy for non-fans, a button to press for a Lucky Dip selection BUT with the option to still change any individual choice they did not like
2. Create a pop-up "warning" if anyone tried to submit an incomplete "entry" - forecasts are required for ALL 15 matches.

I would be happy to pay a reasonable fee if this is again, not breeching etiquette.

Thanks in advance for any help which will be much appreciated.

Preloading .swf Before Preloading Main Movie
Ummm

Things are getting complicated lol

I have my main movie going ..AND I actually managed to get a pre-loader working ...

and it's all ok as long as you have adsl or cable connection - otherwise it is REALLY messy.

The main .swf uploads onto the web .. but the secondary swf have not yet loaded .. and so it is all out of synch .. if you wait a while and refresh you get it ... but argh it is horrible .....

so .. is it possible to block the preload of the main movie until it has preloaded its secondary swf's ??

I should imagine it's recoding the actions AGAIN .. can any one get me started please ..

Is this often a problem if you add swf to a main movie ???

Help Required Progress Indicator Bars. NOT PRELOADING BARS AND NOT A PRELOADING QUE
Help required ! progress indicator bars. NOT PRELOADING BARS AND NOT A PRELOADING QUESTION!

OK I have a swf called audio.swf which just contains a 15 minute streaming audio file that it just dragged along the time line.

I want to have some visual indicators in the swf, so that the user has some info of what is going on:

What I require within the swf are the following:

1.Progress Bar: How much of the movie has been played. This will obviously go up as the timeline for the swf progresses.
2.Streaming bar: Giving the user an indication of the amount of swf that has currently been downloaded.
3.Time (minutes and seconds) that the movie clip has been playing for
4.Elaped time (time remaining)

As you can see I have attached no fla, as I am sure that these 4 visual indicators are all fairly simple to code of any of you action script daddies out there.

Any help on one or all the 4 things I require would be brilliant.

If anyone could help me this would be more than appreciated.

PRELOADING (dynamic Preloading?)
dear all

i hope someone could give me tips how to do this:

i have one main scene and 7 navigation-points. each of the 7 scenes are external movies which should be loaded.

but can they load in the background too, even if the user didnt select a point yet? and when he does, the progress bar would automaticly fill up as much as the movie is loaded already. and it should continue loading all the scenes in the background, while he is in one section.

i hope you know what i mean, excuse my english.

looking forward for a help asap. thanks a lot in advance!

PreLoading Scenes (PRELOADING)
Hi everyone. Ive had my website running for a while now www.coriolis-effect.co.uk Its nearly done all but preloading really. I want visitors to be shown that something is happening rather then just waiting. This has caused a fair percent of people to leave the site straight away especially those with crap connections. Anyway Ive had a look around on the forum a bit for help and I can't see anything about Scenes and preloading them. Maybe there is a way to just preload so many frames? Any help appreciated Lewis

Help...preloading A Swf
When I load my movie in _level2 I also want other swf movies preloaded in _level3.
I have a preloader movie that checks if my _level2 movie is loaded. This works fine.

The first frame of the _level2 movie has this code

dnumber=number + 1;
loadmovienum ("drop"+dnumber+".swf");

on the next frame

IfFrameLoaded (1){
play ();
}

This is not working. it is not caching the movie in _level3 only the movie in _level2.

About PRELOADING
I built a preloader for a flash application which shall
show a lot of jpgs. The preloader seems to work fine since
it displays the loaded percentage.
Then I have one jpg per frame, they should then be displayed very fast one after the other.
The problem I have is that the first time all the jpgs are shown slowly one after the other and just when the movie repeats I have the expected behaviour. It seems that even if the jpg are loaded from the server it still takes time to load them in to the application... (this is what I imagine since I cannot understand why the very first time they are shown so slowly).
Does anybody can help me with this?
Shall I add some more test to be sure the jpgs will be shown to me fast as I wish?
thanks a lot.

Re-preloading Or Preloading?
Currently, I have a flash site (menu.swf) with an internal preload scene,
using ifFrameLoaded scripts at key frames, which ultimately goes to
the second scene when the last frame of the movie is preloaded.

Now, that works fine, but recent developments require a change. The
preload scene needs to be replaced by a seperate .swf


So:

I want to embed 2 .swf files into a .htm page called size.htm :

preload.swf

This (width="200" height="200") movie is to preload menu.swf and then
load a page called menu.htm (which is to embed menu.swf at width="100%" height="100%")

menu.swf

This movie (width="1" height="1") is to act as a hidden movie.


The purpose of this, is so that when menu.htm is opened, the embedded menu.swf
will promptly load (due to already being preloaded by preload.htm page).

It is important to do it this way, as the .htm pages prior to the size.htm
page have a strict width="200" height="200" for their various contents,
and thus when size.htm displays the embedded preload.swf at width="200" height="200"
there is no size/location distortion which occurs when the current preloader
for menu.swf is embedded into itself, when run fullscreen via the menu.htm
page.

Any help, suggestions to get this working would be gratefully recieved.

Preloading
How do I go about preloading all the movies that I am going to use in my sight. I use loadmovie quite a bit and I want them all to start loading onto the viewers browser as soon as they enter the site. Any help will be welcome.

Thanks.

Preloading Swf's
is there a way to preload swf's for faster access?
for example: when i load a movie into the level whatever, is there a way that I could have that swf already stored in cache so it will load quicker??

Thanks.

Preloading
I am using the first scene of a flash movie as a preloader for the whole movie. In this movie, I have an MP3 file of about 84KB in size. The preloader is working but here is the problem:

The preloader elements and progress bar do not load until after about 43% percent of the movie has loaded. When I test the movie using control>testmovie and the "show streaming", "streaming graph" options, I see that the MP3 is loading first before the graphics for the preloader. As a result, the progress bar (in the preloader) is already at about 43% pecent before you even see it. The MP3 file is being used as a linked element for sound control.

How do I get the preloader graphics to load before the MP3?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Preloading & Big Mp3's
Hey everyone,

I have a slight problem. I've built a site for a local band, and I've made a link for listening to some of the band's demo tracks. Anyway, when they click the link a window pops that has the .swf that has the song in it. The thing is, I've built a preloader for the thing, but the pop up window wont even show the contents of the .swf until the song is loaded, so it seems like somethings wrong and the impatient user closes out. How can I get the preloader to show while the song is loading? I have them in seperate scenes already. Help please! To see an example, http://www.geocities.com/tgoesm - under the music section, "The Truth High Bandwidth" Thanks guys
