I've a flash movie that I would like to use inside of a flex application, very similar to a preloader. Looking at this tutorial, http://www.flexer.info/2008/02/07/very-first-flex-preloader-customization/, I expected it would be a matter of not extending "Preloader" and extending "Sprite" and using the class i created wherever i needed....

Hi, I'm simply playing around with basic ActionScript 3 using Flash CS3 Pro. I put in a keyframe this very simple code to duplicate n "brander" symbols: for (var i:Number=0; i<20; i++) { var m = new brander("MS_"+i); addChild(m); m.name = "MS_"+i; m.x = 20*i; m.alpha = a; a-=0.05; m.y = 20; } The symbol is...

How do I do this? I have a seekbar which I'm retrofitting to resize with the FLVPlayback. Right now it gets the mouseX when you click the seekbar, and divides that by the length of the seekbar in order to know what percentage it should seek to. My problem is that now that I'm dynamically setting the width of the seek movieclip the width...
I have a Flash website template (four pages) that I made using AS 3.0 and Flash CS4. It is for an assignment involving movie clips. Currently on the main time line there is only one frame, and three layers: actions/menu/content. The actionscript on the main time line is simply: content_mc.stop (); There is a movie clip on the stage c...
This is a situation I run into a lot but never seem to find a good solution. I have movieclips that I scale up slightly on rollover, but if you hover over the edge of the movieclip it just sits there and flickers, continuously receiving mouseOver and mouseOut events. How do you deal with this? Again, it's usually a problem when tweening ...

Specs: about 320 x 270 px, 5 seconds. I don't know exactly how many images needed for a fluid animation, but let's assume 30. What would be the best way to playback this?

Hi there I have a movieclip which unloads two other movieclips when it is clicked. This bit works fine, but it should also remove itself after this, which particularly does not work.

I'm in frame 1 of a movie, and I want to use getChildByName("mc_movieclip"); to get a reference to mc_movieclip. The problem is that mc_movieclip does not exist in frame 1 but only in frame 5. How can I get a reference to this MovieClip, even though it's in another frame? ...
So I successfully added a movie clip from the library using addChild(), but now I want to access some movieclips that were in that dynamically added movieclip. I've used standard dot notation and also getChildByName passing it the instance names. What am I missing here? ---- EDITED ---- I tried the suggestion of looping through and c...
Facts: I have 2 classes: Entity and Ship. Entity extends MovieClip and Ship extends Entity. I have a MovieClip associated to the Ship.as class file. The thing is that I'm able to show, rotate and move the Ship object. However, I cannot change the pointer to the place I want in its timeline; in short: I can NOT have a successful respo...
