Hiding movieclip that's attached at runtime

Hi, I have a website I am working on and I found a tutorial
to attach the weather to the homepage. It exports a movieclip
called weatherDay. Its script is in a separate .as file and then on
the webste timeline this code makes it visible
// include the script to grab the XML data and import it into
the flash movie
#include "scripts/content.as"
// fire event to display current weather conditions
dispatchEvent({type:"containerInit",
target:this.temperature});
How would I go about hiding the exported movieclip in areas
of the site I don't want it visible? Currentlyy it shows up on the
same spot on every page, and when I try to change the visibilty or
even the _alpha, nothing happens.

Thanks Keith - turns out you can set the bitmap mode to false to access buttons in the blitmask, which is working, so I'll run with that. Cheers mate.

  • Control MovieClip that's inside ScrollPane

    Does anyone know if it's possible to access and modify a
    MovieClip that's been placed in a ScrollPane? I want to be able to
    manipulate a MovieClip at runtime with ActionScript, but allow the
    viewer to scroll the MovieClip...
    Do I need to find a different approach that doesn't use the
    ScrollPane component?

    Is the movieclip part of the content of the scrollpane?
    I use the following line of code to affect one of the MCs
    that are in the
    scrollpane as part of the content.
    _root.csp_scrollingBullets.spContentHolder["bullet_1"].gotoAndPlay(1)

  • Since upgrading to Mavericks, 10.9.1, pictures that come attached to emails no longer display.  There is only a blank space that after about 1 minute, has a small box with a question mark.  How can I go back to attached images?

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, 10.9.1, pictures that come attached to emails no longer display.  There is only a blank space that after about 1 minute, has a small box with a question mark.  Double clicking on the box will open the image in a separate window.  It's very slow and tedious for multiple images.  How can I go back to attached and displayed  images?  If I click on "Forward", the images appear instantly in the email to be forwarded.

    Scott,
    My problem seemed to fix itself.  Or, by shutting down the computer one night, instead of putting it to sleep, may have reset something.  Since updating to Mavericks, I always (or usually) let the computer sleep overnight or anytime I'm walking away from it.  A few days ago, I was updating notes for my kids about how to find all my stuff and how to turn on my computer, so I wanted to rewrite the start-up procedures for the iMac, just in case they ever need to.  Well, I shut it down one night so the following morning, I could write down each step.  Lo and behold, the images, etc. are all there again!  Solved, but I'm not sure why.

  • My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired and i have forgotten the password that was attached to it! I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac?! HELP!

    My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired
    They don't expire. As far as anyone knows Apple IDs live on forever - if you forgot its password use https://iforgot.apple.com. Good luck with the answers to whatever security questions it asks.
    ... I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac with all my pictures etc on!?!
    Right! That's the reason you do not create a new Apple ID.
    As far as Apple is concerned a new Apple ID is a completely different user, with absolutely, positively no access to anything available to any other Apple ID.
    Concentrate your efforts on resetting the password to your old Apple ID. It has not expired, and is the only way to use all your existing iTunes purchases, App Store purchases, computer authorizations... etc. Forget about the new Apple ID you just created.

    how can i activate an ipad that was attached to someones icloud account.  I am not able to reach the person to have them release it

    You can't, i'm sorry. What you're running into is the activation lock and it requires that the original owner release it with their apple ID before you can set it up.

  • How can I get Time Machine to back up an external hard drive (iPhotos) that is attached to airport extreme base station. Note: Time machine is usb to macbook pro and external drive with iphotos is usb to airport extreme base station. Help please. Thanks!

    How can I get Time Machine to back up an external hard drive (iPhotos) that is attached to airport extreme base station. Note: Time machine is usb to macbook pro and external drive with iphotos is usb to airport extreme base station. Help please. Thanks!

    Once you have the drive connected to your Mac, click System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
    Click Time Machine
    Click Options
    Be default, the hard drive will be Excluded from backups. Click the drive to highlight it, then click the "-" (minus) button at the bottom of the list to remove the drive from Excluded items.
    The drive will be backed up on the next Time Machine pass
    Everything above assumes that the hard drive has been formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as Time Machine will only backup drives in that format.

  • Can Time Machine back up a second external hard drive that is attached via usb to a Time Capsule?

    Can Time Machine back up a second external hard drive that is attached via usb to a Time Capsule?
    I have a iMac with 10.7.4

    I want to back up the data on the external Hard Drive that is attached to the Time Capsule to the Tim Capsule using Time Machine.
    Thanks for the clarification.  Unfortunately, that will not work.  You will need to connect the drive directly to your Mac if you want Time Machine to backup the drive to the Time Capsule.

  • I am new to working with pdf.  I am trying to fill out a form that was attached to a web site.  I have a Macbook Pro.  I am just learning Acrobat.  How do I get the form to accept input?

    I am new to working with pdf.  I am trying to fill out a form that was attached to a website.  I have a Macbook Pro and I am trying to learn Acrobat.  How do I get the form to accept my input?

    If there are Acrobat PDF form fields, not jus a space for a form field, then you will have to add them. It would be better to ask the provider of the form to add the fields. If you cannot add the fields, then you can use the add text feature.
    Have you looked in the "Tools" panel for the "Forms" category?

  • How can I build a LabView application that uses the 2012 runtime, on a development system with LabView 2013 or 2014 installed?

    I need to build a LabView application .exe to run with the 2012 Runtime, for legacy support. I currently have LabView 2013 installed on my development system, and have 2014 available. How can I build an application that uses the 2012 runtime on this development system? Do I have to downgrade to 2012? Thank you.

    We have existing customers that have installed our application that was originally built with 2012 (provided by a contractor that is no longer available).  Due to IT regulations, it is far easier to update these customers by simply replacing the .exe file, than creating an install that their IT department must run.
    If I have to downgrade to LabView 2012, where can I get the installation for this?

  • Does each new page that I attach to my home page have to have its own style sheet?

    Does each new page that I attach to my home page have to have its own style sheet or should it all just go on the home page one?

    Different answers depending on your project & workflow.
    I like to keep all my sitewide styles in an external css file.
    Page specific <styles> can be embedded into the document's <head> tags.
    And for line specific styles (mostly used for HTML emails), inline styles can be added to the markup.
         <p style="color:red">example of a paragraph with inline style</p>
    Now, let's say you're building different layouts for different devices.  In that case, you really must keep all related styles in their respective external CSS files.
    print.css
    mobile.css
    tablet.css
    desktop.css
    There's no one size fits all here.  Use whichever method works best for you & your project.

  • Adobe has a Terry White TV program that covers attaching a copyright image to a photograph. Can you please tell me how this is done or the name of Terry Whit's program?

    Adobe has a Terry White TV program that covers attaching a copyright image to a photograph. I have not been able to find this topic in the Adobe Photoshop CS6, Classroom in a Book. Can you help me with a reference on how this is done or possibly name the name of Terry Whit's program?
    Thank You

    >> then I get a completely blue screen.
    That probably means that you're not looking at a bug in Photoshop, but a problem with a driver - and the most likely cause would be your video card driver.
    And sure enough, your video card driver is almost 2 years out of date.
    Please go to NVidia's website and get the latest driver - then follow their directions for installation (so you don't get bits of old driver left over).
