There is a limit to how many alpha'd movieclips you can have overlapping before Flash runs into display errors. If a movieclip is supposed to be completely invisible, set _visible=false instead of _alpha=0, so that Flash does not need to display it. If for some reason you really need to display many images overlapped with 0 alpha, look into drawing them into the same bitmap in Flash 8.

Re: [Flashcoders] Alpha-blending two MC's with bitmaps?
Weldon, here's the method I've wrote to handle the blending. It's very
simple and I cannot detect any bug in there ...
public static function alphaBlend(fromImage:MovieClip,
toImage:MovieClip):Void
{
fromImage.swapDepths(100);
fromImage._alpha = 100;
fromImage._visible = true;
toImage.swapDepths(101);
toImage._alpha = 0;
toImage._visible = true;
toImage.onEnterFrame = function():Void
{
if (toImage._alpha 100)
{
toImage._alpha += 5;
}
else
{
toImage._alpha = 100;
delete toImage.onEnterFrame;
}
};
}
The blending works but strangely the fromImage is not shown, instead the
toImage fades in from the white background of my Flash movie. As I mentioned
before there are other image mc's in the holder movieclip but they are on
depths 0 to 20 and are invisible so I doubt they have any influence on this.

I've done what you seem to be discribing and it works. You probably
have a small bug in your code. Without seeing the code it's hard to

Have you made certain the lower one is loading at all or has been made

Re: [Flashcoders] Loading several images with one progressbar?
Hi Adrian, thanks for the idea but this approach will not work in my case because the images are loaded sequencially. If one image is finished loading, my class starts loading the next and so on, one after one. And the amount of images varies (the image filenames are fetched from a XML file). I'm now defining a segmentWidth by dividing the full progressbar width by the amount of images that are going to be loaded. That gives me the 100% for one image on the whol bar. I just haven't figured out yet how to make it work so that the bar doesn't start from 0 at every image. Any other idea?

Subject: [FlashCoders] scrollRect
Hi all,
I'm trying to make a very basic prototype to test parallax movement with
Flash 8.
Is movieclip.scrollRect what I should be using? I tried this:
var bg:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie(bg, bg, 2);
var y:Number = 0;
_root.onEnterFrame = function():Void {
bg.scrollRect = {x:0, y:y--, width:635, height:540};
}
The movieclip bg contains only a jpg 635x540.
The movement is pretty jumpy. Should I be using BitmapData instead?
I'm a bit lost! I've been searching for code samples online for the past 2
hours and
I haven't found anything useful.
Does anyone have a useful link for parallax or tile-based games using
Flash
8 features?
Performance is the key issue here, since this is going for a very big and
complex game
and I want to optimize it as much as possible.
Thanks a lot!

Objects or arrays don't have a name. That is: you could have a variable fooObj referring to some object O, and you could set another variable barObj to refer to the same object. The object O is completely independent of the variables referring to it. For that matter, an object held in an array doesn't even have a variable name referring to it.

Sascha
Are you outputting these URLs or using them in getURL()?
That should work in getURL(). But if you're outputting them, one way to
convert them is to use HTML text fields.
Or, if you can't change the text fields, try this:
str = Sometext with an amp; in.;
function convert(str, from, to) {
return str.split(from).join(to);
}
trace(convert(str, amp;, ));

however also replace the of all other special chars but the way how you

chars and HTML braces while keeping other chars untouched I came up with
this method which seems to work well so far:
private function convertTags(txt:String):String

If you wanted it to actually output amp; I'm assuming you could
capture the amp; in the string and replace it with amp;amp; - which
would theoretically output amp; - haven't actually tried this though.
Which I guess more generically would boil down to you replacing all your

At least I couldn't find anything about it on the AS3 reference (http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex/langref/index.html). Or does some of these methods completely have been replaced by something else? With Flash 8 AS2 nothing has been changed about duplicateMovieClip, so it's still not possible to duplicate a clip from one container into another. I was hoping it will be possible with AS3. Anyone knows more about it? duplicateMovieClip() - flash.display.MovieClip.MovieClip() (Replaced by new MovieClip class constructor function.) Found under the AS2 to AS3 migration section. -- Troy RPSystems, Ltd. http://www.rpsystems.net ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] AS3 and duplicateMovieClip
Hi list, I'm not very familiar with AS3 yet but is there no duplicateMovieClip anymore? At least I couldn't find anything about it on the AS3 reference (http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex/langref/index.html). Or does some of these methods completely have been replaced by something else? With Flash 8 AS2 nothing has been changed about duplicateMovieClip, so it's still not possible to duplicate a clip from one container into another. I was hoping it will be possible with AS3. Anyone knows more about it? Thanks, Sascha ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
