Hello, I have an mc which loads an external image file (a user avatar) using MovieClipLoader.loadClip and while doing so displays percentage of currently loaded bytes in a TextField loaded_txt:
class User extends MovieClip { private var loaded_txt:TextField; private var avatar_mc:MovieClip; private var loader_mcl:MovieClipLoader; public function User() { loaded_txt.text = '0%'; var listener:Object = new Object(); // pass container dimensions and // the TextField reference to the callbacks: listener.box_width = avatar_mc._width; listener.box_height = avatar_mc._height; listener.box_ratio = avatar_mc._width / avatar_mc._height; listener.loaded_txt = loaded_txt; listener.onLoadProgress = display_progress; listener.onLoadInit = resize_clip; loader_mcl = new MovieClipLoader(); loader_mcl.addListener(listener); loader_mcl.loadClip(image, avatar_mc); } I'm trying to pass 4 variables as members to the onLoadInit callback, so that I can delete the percentage text in loaded_txt and also resize the loaded image to make it fit into the box: private function resize_clip(target_mc:MovieClip):Void { loaded_txt.text = ''; var clip_ratio:Number = target_mc._width / target_mc._height; if (clip_ratio > this['box_ratio']) target_mc._xscale = target_mc._yscale = 100 * this['box_width'] / target_mc._width; else target_mc._xscale = target_mc._yscale = 100 * this['box_height'] / target_mc._height; }; The code above with this['box_ratio'] works, but if I try to refer to this.box_ratio or just box_ratio, I get the error message (and same for box_width and box_height): There is no property with the name 'box_ratio'. Why is it so? And what irritates me even more, I'm able to access loaded_txt.text from the callback just fine... I've tried to print out properties of this in resize_clip(), but haven't noticed there anything special: --- this in resize_clip() --- onLoadInit: [type Function] onLoadProgress: [type Function] loaded_txt: _level0.user_mc.loaded_txt box_ratio: 1.32786885245902 box_height: 61 box_width: 81 Regards Alex -- http://preferans.de _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
