Personally, I find onEnterFrames bad practice to use unless you absolutely have to (if your logic is frame-based, etc). I would suggest the nested clip and/or use MovieClipLoader to handle your image loading.

I don't really know if either solution is better than the other, but with the code you already have and what David suggested you can make a few changes and probably get by. Some code: var models = new Array(); models = [ "model1", "model2", "model3", "model4"]; trace(models.length); for (i=0; i<models.length; i++){ movieName=models[i]; var newMC= this.container1.createEmptyMovieClip(movieName, 0+i); // create another mc inside newMC to load your images into var img_mc = newMC.createEmptyMovieClip("image_mc", 1); // load your image img_mc.loadMovie("models/"+movieName+".jpg"); newMC._x=100*-i; newMC._y=100*i; trace (newMC);// so far works until here, creating the movieclips and loading the pics inside then and assigning them a respective value for x and y ///from now on, I got the problem, it appear that can't accept any event in the movie clips newMC.onRollOver= function(){ trace("hello"); } } Hope it helps. Keep in mind that this doesn't let you adjust the size of the image. For that you'll have to go the other route and wait until the image has fully loaded. You could do that using the code above, but attach an onEnterFrame to your "newMC"... like so: newMC.onEnterFrame = function() { var bl = img_mc.getBytesLoaded(); var bt = img_mc.getBytesTotal(); if(bl == bt && bt > 0) { delete this.onEnterFrame; // your image is now loaded... do whatever you want here. } } John On Apr 6, 2007, at 2:25 PM, Gustavo Duenas wrote: > I did, but it is the same...nothing so far...I guess that one of you > maybe have been in this problem before...so I'd like to know how can I > finish it. > > > Regards > > > Gustavo > On Apr 6, 2007, at 2:04 PM, Rost, Andrew wrote: > >> newMC.rollOver >> >> Should be: >> >> newMC.onRollOver >> >> HTH >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Gustavo Duenas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Sent: Friday, April 06, 2007 12:43 PM >> To: Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com >> Subject: [Flashcoders] attaching an event to a movie clip >> >> Hi , Ok it doesn't sound as simple, >> >> I've created a series of empty movieclips which loads pics from an >> array, so far it loads perfectly but I can attach to the newly >> created movie clip any kind of >> events. >> >> I'm using this. >> >> stop(); >> >> var models = new Array(); >> >> models = [ "model1", "model2", "model3", "model4"]; >> >> trace(models.length); >> for (i=0; i<models.length; i++){ >> movieName=models[i]; >> var newMC= this.container1.createEmptyMovieClip(movieName, 0+i); >> newMC.loadMovie("models/"+movieName+".jpg"); >> newMC._x=100*-i; >> newMC._y=100*i; >> trace (newMC);// so far works until here, creating the movieclips >> and loading the pics inside then and assigning them a respective >> value for x and y >> >> ///from now on, I got the problem, it appear that can't accept any >> event in the movie clips >> newMC.rollOver= function(){ >> trace("hello"); >> } >> >> } >> >> I hope you got it...because I'm still dont get it. >> >> Regards >> >> >> Gustavo Duenas >> >> _______________________________________________ >> 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 >> _______________________________________________ >> 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 >> > > _______________________________________________ > 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 > _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
