Hi folks, I'm a newbie... and have a problem. Basically I know what I want to happen, but I need some genius to convert my lay-terms into action script (mx 2004) or whatever works. Ok, I have a button that I want to smoothly grow when I rollover it. When I rollout of it, it then needs to shrink back to it's original size. But.... This is the tricky bit! -How do I make it so that if I rollout half way whilst its getting larger, it begins to shrink from that point on and doesn't jump/jitter? I need to set a limit to the size that it grows to e.g to a maximum 120x120px. Any help would be much appreciated. TIA Hass

- 1. one bitmap in multiple movieclips
Hi, I have a thumbnail bitmap image and I insert it into a MovieClip. When a user clicks on the movie clip it goes to another page where the user can see the larger image. I also want to display the thumbnail the user clicked on the large image page. When I add the bitmap image to a movie clip on the large image page; the bitmap disappears from the main page. Do I duplicate the image? I don't get it. - 2. is it a bug, or maybe there is an explanation?
try this create a mc inside a mc (mcParent, mcChild) resize the mcParent: option 1: mcParent._xscale=300; option 2: mcParent._width=500; and than trace the width of mcParent and the width of mcChild. the mcParent get a new width value (origin * 3) but the mcChild has the origin width value. and the question is why? - 3. Opening a new browser window from flash
Does anyone know of a method fo opening a link in a new window in firefox from within flash that isn't blocked by the popup blocker. It seems like the security in FF 2.0.0.6 (I'm on 2.0.0.11) has been tightened to prevent any _blank or window.open calls from flash getting through. I've tried the standard getURL, fscommand and ExternalInterface call to a javascript window.open method. Nothing now works. I understand the need for the popup blockers, but this is a legitimate popup only invoked on user interaction (click) - the same window.open call in an onClick event outside of flash works fine and I guess it is blocked from within flash because there is no way of knowing if the call is invoked from user interaction or automatically - but seems a shame. So any other way of getting a new browser window to open from within flash in firefox? - 4. A Few Questions
ok how do i play an audio in a action script? also how do i make a password script and a good loader? - 5. Pass variable from one SWF to another SWF
I am having difficulties passing a variable from one SWF to a dynamically loaded SWF. I can get variables to pass into a SWF while using FlashVars in HTML. But in this case, I need to load the SWF file into another SWF file instead of directly via an HTML page & FLashVars. So now I can't figure out how to pass a variable from my main SWF file another SWF file. // testA.fla AS code: myText_txt.text = testVar; // this would display whatever I pass it when using FlashVars to set testVar in HTML // testB.fla AS code: this.createEmptyMovieClip("holder_mc", 0); holder_mc.testVar = "Does this show up?"; // it doesn't show up holder_mc.loadMovie("testA.swf"); //holder_mc.loadMovie("testA.swf?testVar='some thing i want to pass'");// doesn't work. Any insight is appreciated!

This might help get you started. I did this late, so it's not perfect, but it will maybe help...

2.making an instance shrink and grow continuously
This is kind of frustrating. According to the Flash help, when using a Tween
class, you can refer back to the tween with a "onMotionChanged" and
"onMotionFinished" event handlers to call a function after the tween effect has
finished or changed. However, in both AS2 and AS3, neither of these work. I
get an error in both versions saying that there is no property with the name
'onMotionChanged' or the other. Which means Flash itself does not recognize
what it has in its own Help files as a proper event handler. Am I missing
something or is this just a cruel joke by them? I have included the import
actions in AS. My code is attached.
I'm trying to call repeat the initial tween transition (iconPulse) in reverse
order. I want to create an effect of a pulsing image that shrinks and grows.
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var iconPulse:Tween = new Tween(this, "_yscale", Regular.easeOut, 80, 100, 5,
true);
var iconPulse:Tween = new Tween(this, "_xscale", Regular.easeOut, 80, 100, 5,
true);
iconPulse.onMotionFinished = function(){
var iconPulse = new Tween(this, "_yscale", Regular.easeOut, 100, 80, 5, true);
var iconPulse = new Tween(this, "_xscale", Regular.easeOut, 100, 80, 5, true);
}

5.can any1 help me with text fields?
If you are running from an iis server then you could use the fileSystemObject to crete a text file and append to the bottom of it using getURL in flash to call the asp page that does the work. If you are looking to do the whole thing locally then I doubt that flash (or the users system for that matter) would allow flash to create a text file locally. You may not have to though. If you are looking to create a ticker of sorts then try something like this. Create a hidden field on your htm page and keep appending values to it useing javascript calls from flash. Make it a pipe delimited list. Then you can get that hidden fields value whenever you want, parse it out and do whatever you like with it.
