Good catch.

-but-

The code you pointed out only affected the third loop.

I fixed the code and the problem is still happening on the second and third loop.

I am looping through an animation 3 times. Each time I am swapping in text dynamically from an array.

When I try to reposition one of the clips during the animation, it disappears.

Here is...

thanks for your help #51055. I ended up doing exactly what you outlined.

It just seems like such a bizarre way to find such commonly used info.

That makes sense.

How then do I find the top left position in Actionscript?

I have a MC that i have sized as 100x100 and positioned at X=100 and Y=100.

When I check the values in actionscript, the values are different.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGG.

I am looking at your .fla file and I don't understand where you are trying to go. Where is scene 2? on the main timeline?

replace "_root.movieClipName" with the correct path and name of your clip. Replace 222 with the width and height you want.


_root.movieClipName._width = 222;
_root.movieClipName._height = 222;

try this:

on (press){
_root.gotoAndPlay("Scene2",1);
}

good to know!

You can use getURL to run a program through CGI or some other serverside scripting language.

As far as I know, you can't run an exe from flash.

If you are trying to import as and use html, then you will only be able to do basic html rollovers. Html/css support is still very rudimentary.

Is there a way to scale a movie clip using actionscript that uses registration points?

EX: I want to increase the height of a clip but have it expand only upwards, not up and down.

I am having a syntax problem with a bit of actionscript.


Shouldn't this statement:

_root.majorMask.masterMC.maskFaces.neg1.createEmptyMovieClip(nm,i);



Equal this one?:

The height and width changes were half of the solution.

The other step that you have to work through is opening the window fullscreen using javascript. You will have to specify the width and...

I am trying to figure out the correct syntax for this statement.

The example I posted www.larsen.com, wasn't the effect you were looking for?

I was hoping to find a solution that would use a flash tween as opposed to a tween controlled by actionscript.

Reid

if you look at your html source you should see a couple of tags that have both height and width properties... they should contain values that correspond with the size of your flash document.

EX:...

You can have the .swf scale in html to 100% height and width. Then you can resize the browser window to fullscreen using javascript.

check out www.larsen.com for an example

Could you post a url?

Yes, you can open the browser fullscreen on a mac using javascript. Keep in mind that some room is saved for toolbars and the dock (in os x).
