Dynamic movive clip duplication

I have an empty movieclip (mc_holder).Now I dynamically
create some textbox
instances inside this movieclip.
A function takes this mc_holder and duplicates it with a new
name.
Strange the mc_holder duplicated does not have the textboxes.
How to do that
Help .

if I need to create all mc and nested textboxes again then
that is a rework.
Why should I duplicate then.I culd create one anotehr
mc_holder tyle mc
dynamically ang do the same textbox work like earlier
mc_holder.
I strongly need the work to be in a function which when
called creates
required instances (along withe textboxes).
Any hint!!!!!!!!!

How to access dynamic movie clips in a loaded swf

Hello,
I have a main movie file that loads a swf through loadclip.
There are several dynamic movie clips in the library of the
loaded swf (all set to export in first frame).
I'm trying to create a popup window (using the Window
component) by using code in the main movie to popup content that is
in a dynamic movie clip within the swf loaded by loadclip.
So far, I can create the popup without any problem as long as
the contentPath refers to a linkage identifier of a library item in
the main movie, but it won't work for a library item in the loaded
movie. Is there a way to make this work? Is there a special way to
reference library items in loaded movies?
Here's my code to create the window:
myWin = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,
mx.containers.Window, true, {title:mytitle, contentPath:myref,
closeButton:true});
where myref is a string containing the linkage identifier for
the library item within the loaded swf.
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Julia

I have found out that I can access a dynamic mc from the
loaded library (using attachMovie), but cannot use that same
dynamic mc as the contentpath for a popup window.
Any ideas why?

Dynamic movie clips

I have a parent mc, "clipGrid_mc" which has 44 child clips:
mc1,mc2,mc3...mc44.
The following code will work with the dynamically created
clips (which have an image loaded into each one):
clipGrid_mc.onPress = function():Void {
trace("It works");
But this won't:
clipGrid_mc.mc10.onPress = function():Void {
trace("It works");
How can I get a child of "clipGrid_mc" to respond?

remove the mouse handlers for clipGrid_mc if you want to
define mouse handlers for a child movieclip.

Attaching dynamic movie clips in a static moviclip

I have a problem regarding attahing these movieclips(images)
to a label (movieclip) on the stage and when i will move label the
all images shoild move with label which attched to that label , i
have tried lot through hit test but not working because i have lots
of dynamic movieclips(images) and how to attach these movieclips on
the label movieclip which is static movieclip in my case do u have
any sample or any question regarding this ??? pl help me out .
Thnx

In as2, you can't dynamically alter the parent - child
relationships of movieclips.
When you mean a 'static' movieclip do you just mean one
that's not attached at runtime... I'm assuming its still a
movieclip ...e.g. its not for example 'static text'. just checking.
So long as it is ... here's how I would try to do it:
have each label clip contain an array of 'linked' image
clips. Whenever you move the label clip then have the event or
enterFrame handler for that label clip loop through the array of
'linked' clips and move them by the same x and y values. I think
this would work - its the way I would try to do it anyhow. Others
may have a better idea.
This approach would be more complicated if there was
different scaling or rotation etc applied to the container clips of
the images or the labels.

Is anyone else having serious issues with Dynamically linked clip render times in CC 2014.2

Short clips stalling and taking forever to render. Longer ones taking several hours???
I've noticed arbitrary little fixes, such as re-opening the after effects window, then going back into the premiere window causes the render to instantly speed back up in some cases.
A restart of the program I believe solves the issue too. As does simply rendering the clip out in after effects.
The problem is that I have long, overnight renders set up that need to run automatically. In this case, 9 clips, all about 30 minutes long. And pretty much all one long dynamically linked comp (I created a picture in picture effect in after effects compiling 2 30-minute video feeds, and then added some color correction). When I left at night, the total time kept creeping up and up to about 2.5 hours for one video. Even THAT sounds like a lot to me, but I let it go. I return to the computer 13 hours later, to see only 3 videos completed, and the one CURRENTLY in the queue saying over 6 hours remaining. I cancel the render.
I feel like there is some breakdown of communication between afx and premeiere happening here.
Anyone have any experience with issues like this?
Running PP CC2014.2 on a tricked out 2011 Macbook pro 17" OSX Yosemite

I'm on windows 7, and similar dynamic issues were a result of having two versions of the same app on the machine, and not associating the files to use the latest version, etc, or a version mismatch.
Another workaround is to close PPro and import the project into AME, rendering it from there.

Inconsistent Adobe Dynamic Link clip corruption in Premiere Pro (All CS5)

So I'm working towards having seventeen AE compositions in a video I'm cutting with Premiere. I was chugging along just fine until most, but not all, of my clips started showing this strange diagonal line business.
When I drag the timeline over the clear areas the AR comositions look fine but things cut out over the diagonal lines and when I do a render I get what looks like the AE composition minus the odd layer.
I've not deleted or moved any of the component files for the compositions, so I'm not sure what's going on here.
After some looking around the forum, I've seen it suggested that drawing from Multiple AE Projects is a bad idea - that you should have all your compositions in one AE Project to then draw from in Premiere - but have not seen any confirmation of this.
I would greatly appreciate if anyone could help me out here as this is a project I've been working on for almost a year and I'd really like to wrap it up!

Just to be clear: you still can store dynamically linked compositions in different AE projects (which might be useful when your AE projects are quite complex or you need to distribute your work across team members), just avoid incremental numbers at the end of the names.
Dynamic Link is not the best option under all circumstances, and as Craig said sometimes rendering digital intermediate is more efficient. Check this good old discussion on Dynamic Link workflow, pay attention to Todd's comments.

AME encoding old dynamic link clips

I've run into this issue a couple times, and it's caused some embarrassment for me with clients. I start with a title card in AE and add it to my Premiere timeline via dynamic link. My client will ask me to change the font in the title card. So I go into AE and change the font. The changes show up in the timeline in Premiere, and if I export straight from Premiere, everything goes well.
However, if I export the timeline through from Premiere through AME, the changes made to the title card in AE (and linked to Premiere) will not show up in the exported file. Instead, the old version of the title card will be exported. Any other changes made in Premiere will be exported properly, but somehow the change to the AE clips won't make it over to AME.
Any thoughts?

Dynamic movie clip removal

I'm working on a Flash/XML photo album that loads image
thumbnails dynamically by creating individual movie clips for each
thumbnail. The thumbnails are divided into 10 groups. Every time a
new group of thumbnails is selected from the album the XML array is
upadated with the correspondig image file name and path. The only
problem is that since there are different number of photos in each
thumbnail group the extra image_mc's created dynamically remain,
even if they are not from the specific group. For example for group
1 I have 6 thumbnail images, group 2 contains 4 thumbnail images.
If I start with group 1 and then select group 2, the 4 thumbnails
from group 1 are displayed plus number 5 and 6 from the previous
group. What's the best way to remove all the image_mc's created
dynamically before each new thumbnail load. This is what I have so
far and it doesn't work:
// thumbnails is the array
function thumbDisplay(thumbnails){
var galleryLength:Number = thumbnails.length;
removeMC();
// loop through each of the images in the gallery_array.
for (var i = 0; i<galleryLength; i++) {
/* create a movie clip instance which holds the image, also
set a variable,
thisMC, which is an alias to the movie clip instance. */
thisMC = this.createEmptyMovieClip("image"+i+"_mc", i);
/* load the current image source into the new movie clip
instance,
using the MovieClipLoader class. */
mcLoader_mcl.loadClip("photos/"+selectedGallery+"/thumbs/"+thumbnails
,thisMC);
function removeMC():Void{
for(var i=0; i<thumbnails.length; i++){
thisMC.removeMovieClip("image"+i+"_mc");
Any help would be great. Thanks.

Attaching Dynamic Movie Clips on a Stage Movie Clip

Hi guys ,
I am calling more images in dynamic movieclip on the stage
from XML file and show them on the stage after that evry movieclip
is draggable and there is lots of labels (movieclips) on which i
have to drag the images called from xml files and placed on that
label , label is also draggable once when i placed object on the
label moviecli then when i drag the label all images placed in side
the label should also move with the label .
And there might be more labels and more images , i can place
any images in a label or more images on different label but will
work siimilarly described above .
So please suggest me and help me out ASAP.

Ok if I understand you, you have several movieclips on the
stage that are created dynamically. Some of them are called
"labels" and some are images. You want to drag and drop an image
onto a label. Then when you do that you want the image to become a
child movieclip of the label movieclip. That way when you drag the
label movie clip and all the images inside it will move along with
it.
Are the images movieclips as well or are they just images?

Sizing dynamic movie clips

I have a project I am working on that has a scroll window on
the main page and the movie clip displayed in it changes. All of
the movie clips that get displayed in the scroll window are all
dynamically made through actionscript loading all of the info from
PERL scripts usingLoadVars().
For some reason I cannot figure out yet there is like a full
page worth of empty space at the bottom of each movie clip so as
you scroll down once you hit the end of the content it will still
scroll down atleast another page worth. Any ideas how I can stop
that so the scrolling will stop when the content ends?

Thats what I was thinking as well, Any ideas what I would
look for to find what is causing the problem? as far as I can tell
everything is just blank, and if I manually set the height value
for the movie clip it does squish everything and still include the
blank space so it looks like flash thinks something is there.
Or is there a way I can set the height of the movie clip
forcing it to cut off anything below? adjusting the height value
just forces the entire movie to display into that size, cutting it
off at that height value would resolve my problem as well.

Animating dynamic move clips.

I have an unknown number of movie clips tat are added
dynamically. I can add them fine but i want to add them so they
appear off stage at a random x, y pos and then slide in and ease up
to another random spot on the screen. So each time the movie is
loaded it looks lik someone has thrown a bunch of photos out on a
table and they slide and spread to random locations and ease to a
stop. Anyone have any clues? i have found a number of tutorials but
would like some extra help/explanations.
Cheers.

very basically, it should be something like -
once a MC is loaded place it randomly offstage, and then
using the Tween
class move it to a random location on stage.
for further information, read the help files about 'random'
and 'tween'.
good luck,

Master clip duplication problem

If I copy a master clip in the browser, then paste it, isn't the new clip supposed to independent? The Master Clip colunm is still showing a check beside the new clip.

Actually, in the book Final Cut Pro 5 by Diana Weynand from the Apple Pro Training Series it specifically states that copying and pasting a master clip in the browser will not create a new master clip (p. 270). I tried it in 5.0.x and that is the case, the pasted clip is not a master clip. However, trying it in 5.1.2 the pasted clip does become a master clip.
There were changes made to master clip behavior going from 5.0 to 5.1.2, but this change isn't mentioned in any of the documentation I've seen.
If anyone else is working with the Final Cut Pro 5 book, there's another master clip discrepancy between the book and 5.1.x. On page 273 it says that you will get a warning when deleting a master clip from a project that has been used in a sequence. According to the late breaking news document at http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/FinalCut_Pro_5.0_lbnz.pdf the warning dialog will no longer appear:
Managing and Revealing Master Clips
In previous versions of Final Cut Pro, affiliate clips shared data with a master clip stored in the Browser. If you deleted the master clip, a dialog would appear requesting confirmation that you wanted to break the master-affiliate clip relationship. If you clicked OK, all of the affiliated clips would become independent.
In Final Cut Pro 5.1.2, deleting a master clip no longer breaks the relationship between affiliated clips. Instead, the master-affiliate clip relationship still exists even when the master clip in the Browser is deleted. No dialog appears when you delete a master clip.

Dynamic Form Data Duplication

I'm working on my first dynamic form, and I'm having an issue where my dynamic subforms share the same data, so editing one subform updates all other subforms of the same type. The form is a tshirt order sheet, so, for example, there'll be a line for a specific brand of shirt, plus sizes. When another line is added, it'll duplicate all the info from the first line, and any changes made to the second line will be immediately mirrored in the first line. I have the fields bound to an XML schema I wrote, so I'm not sure if that may be causing the problem.

Hi,
You have not included the XML schema. However the issue is that the objects in the repeating row are bound to the schema, if this is absent or if the schema only contains one node, then I am sure that all repeated instances of the row will display the same data.
The issue is where is the data coming from? Is it from a database or is the user entering it. If the user is entering it then I would not bind those fields to a schema. Set the binding to Name/Normal.

Destroying dynamic movie clips

Hey all. I am drawing lines from some xml data based upon
which item in the list the user selects. Problem is, if they have
already selected the item, I want the lines(few hundred each)
associated with it to be destroyed, disappear, anything as long as
the user does not see them. I am able to use a counter in the
naming scheme. I use this counter to tell if the movieclip has
already been created. Once I know this, i try to destroy it or make
it invisible but nothing works. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

I tried swapping those two out for the destroyobject line yet
had no luck. It correctly does not draw the line again but it does
not go back through and remove those movieclips. Any ideas? Thanks
for the help so far.

Dynamic Instance for a MOVIE CLIP

Hi Please help me!!!!!!!!!!
I am creating dynamic Movie Clip using as3, but I don't have
any idea about dynamic Instance name, please give me some idea that
how I can assign Instance name for a movie clip.
I am waiting your reply.
Thanks
Sushil Kumar

You can assign a value to the name property of the MovieClip,
but refering to the variable name of your MovieClip instance is
preferable. This code illustrates the difference:
