How can I control a parent container clip?

I have a site with the usual design: main.swf with a
container clip which loads the various swfs into it using
MovieClipLoader.
In one of the swfs that is loaded into the container clip, I
have a button that, onRelease, I'd like to load another swf into
the main container clip.
Can I have a button address the container clip that is
holding it's parent swf?
Another way to put it, can I have a movieclip unload itself
by loading another movieclip into it's own container clip?
thanks for any insight!

kglad, thank you very much for taking a look.
Perhaps it would be better to view the entire site here:
http://www.katodesignstudio.net/linda/index.html
On the News page, I'd like to have a button that will load
the Screening page (screening.swf) where the News page is loaded.
At the link above, the button has been removed until I can find a
solution but it would be located where the "see screening page for
details" text is now.
As you can see by going to any other page, all of the pages
in the site load into a container clip. From what I can tell so
far, I need the button to unload the News.swf from the container
clip and load the Screening.swf into that same container clip,
similar to what the top Nav menu is doing. The trick seems to be to
get the button to unload the swf that the button is located in...
How can this be done?
thanks again for your help!

  • How can I control my parent's mac

    My parents live far away and they have problems quite frequently.  I'l like to be able to get control of their screen and make hte changes with them from here.

    Logmein, lets you connect to a mac from a pc, mac, ios device , or droid. They would need to go to the website, sign up for a free or payed account, and then install some software. After that, if they shared the user name and password you would be able to connect to the computer over the internet.
    To stop allowing you to connect, they would need to change the password, or remove the software.
    TeamViewer is desgined for remote support. each time you need to connect they would need to open the program and give you the one time user code it generates. you would then put that code into the program on your end, to connect and view their screen.
    Their website says it's free for private use. Their website lists support to/from mac, linux, pc, ios, droid.
    Another option is iChat. If your both using a recent vertion of the mac operting system. Through I chat you request to view or control their screen. And it has buil-in voice chat support. So you can talk to them over the computer with no addional software.
    The catch is some times the way the internet connections are configured in such a way they interfer with iChat.

  • How can I control the size of the af:InputText?

    Hi,
    How can I control the size of the 'af:InputText' on the UI, without using columns & rows attributes. Even though I am using width & height attributes, the changes are not getting reflected in the UI.
    Thanks,
    Rajesh.

    Hi,
    It is inside a 'af:PanelBox'. So, the parent container also determines the size of the child? Here I need a create a 'pidgin chat window' kind of an interface with a fixed size top-level container, inside which I willl put all my components. The code looks something like this:
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

  • How can I control selection on a PDF

    I have Acrobat Pro 9 Pro build 9.4.6 and am constantly exporting documents from indesign to .pdf, and also building docs in the 'combine' feature from mixed pages. 
    While everything seems to go reasonably well, I have a few problems that are due either to my ignorance, or bugs.
    1.  The biggie; How can I control what I select, for the purpose of copying, moving and deleting?   When I drag the touch-up object tool over my selection, it selects what it wants to most of the time; sometimes it selects (i.e., puts a light blue box around) the entire page, instead of my selection (no pages are scanned).  There are very few instances when I get exactly what I want; there are usually a few lines above or below, no matter how careful I am in my selection.  The funny thing is that this is not a constant; sometimes, the tool works perfectly!  and I have my heart in my mouth every time I really need it to work, hoping that it will not force me to go back to Indesign to make minor corrections.   Perhaps my problems are connected to options I select when exporting my indds, but I've tried checking, clearing, and selecting various combinations and nothing seems to work.
    Sometimes, the text selection tool is strange; a wide blue swath develops over the selected text, even though it is still usually possible to  edit the text in this condition.  And BTW, is there anything to do about the fact that some text can't be edited at all because a suitable font replacement can't be found?  Can't a font be added somehow that will take care of this?
    2. Headers and Footers; fairly effortless, but if the footer contains two rows and I want them centered, the second row looks centered in the preview but not in the doc.  I have to go back to the footer dialog and guesstimate how many spaces to place before the second row to get it to look centered.  Also, is there any way to place a logo in a header?  That would be one of my requests for the next version of Acrobat, if not.
    3.Hyperlinks; they don't always work,even though I check Hyperlinks in the Export settings.  Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
    4.  Typwriter toolbar; it also seems to offer font and size changes whenever it feels like it, and I've tried all different orders of typing, selecting, etc.

    It's me again, sorry!  I wanted to save what I'd written, and my message popped up to the board.
    Thank you for any advice anyone has!
    PS  My indd and acrobat are the same version, as they came in the same package (CS4).  Windows XP sp3.
    Oh, one more thing I just remembered, as long as I'm complaining; sometimes if I place an object (the logo) and copy it to another page, it disappears on the original page, as if I've cut it.  Any fix for that?  (strange how I can edit tmy 'reply' but not my original post...well, at least I found where to ask a question fairly quickly!)

    Here's my take on the same thing:
    Short answer: the dpi is set when you decide what size you're printing at.
    Long Answer: Dpi means nothing in the digital world of your computer. There are no "inches" to have "dots per..." Size is measured in pixels. That's the same on your camera. It doesn't take 10 x 8 or 6 x 4 shots. It takes shots measured in megapixels. For instance 4,000 x 3,000 is a 12 megapixel camera.
    Using that example, that shot from that camera has 12 million pixels. So that's how many "Dots" there are. To decide the ratio of dots per inch, you now need to decide the "inches" part. And that's printing. Print at 10 x 8 and the dpi will be 4,000/10 or about 400 dpi. At 6 x 4 then it's 4,000/6 or 660 dpi. Work the other way: Print at 300 dpi and the resulting image will be about 13 inches on the longer side.
    So, your photo as a fixed number of pixels. Changing the dimensions of the print will vary the dpi, changing the dpi will vary the dimensions of the print.

  • How can I control the order of iDVD menu items using the Arrow keys?

    I have a submenu screen containing 10 selectable buttons plus the Return Arrow button.  I have ordered all the slideshows in the correct order in the DVD map.  However, when I run the program, the arrow keys jump the selection focus in an apparently random sequence.  How can I control the order of the selection focus?
    I'm using iDVD v 7.1.2
    TIA.

    In the iMovie 11 event library, how can I get the iPhoto video clips to combine with my camcorder pics listed below and in chronological order?

    Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

  • How can i control weather a custom transaction is executed

    How can i control whether a custom transaction containing delete sql statement is executed using the results of a record set?
    The custom transactions dialog does no allow me to use anything more than sql and has no conditions so i cannot control flow their.
    Triggers seem not to be able to access record sets defined on the same page and internally seem able to perform select staments but unable to return result sets.
    Please help if you can ?

    What exactly are you trying to do?
    The following partial code-snippet checks a value on a form and performs a sql select query if a condition is met, it could perform any valid sql...
    //start GWB_SetSubscribedToThread trigger
    function GWB_SetSubscribedToThread(&$tNG) {

    $threadid = $tNG->getColumnValue('NbForumMessageID');
    $userid = $tNG->getColumnValue('CreatedBy');

    //Check current subscription
    $query = "SELECT ms_RandomKey FROM messagesubscribe WHERE ms_MessageTypeID = 1 AND ms_ThreadID = " . $threadid . " AND ms_UserID = " . $userid ;
    // This syntax doesn't work for some reason??

  • How can i make a transition between clips on cutaway?

    how can i make a transition between clips on cutaway?

    But if I want ONLY fade out (or in) I can't do it...
    OK, I understand what you mean now! I assumed you were asking about the normal Fade In or Fade Out using the transition from the Transitions panel. But I guess you mean the Fade function specific to a Cutaway. When you double-click on a Cutaway the Inspector opens. Here you can set the Cutaway Fade duration. But as you say, it only provides for both fade in and fade out as one operation - you can't set the fades individually (it's both or nothing).
    BUT, try the method outlined by Karsten Schluter above. It will give you the same effect and will enable you to fade either side of the Cutaway (or add other transitions).

  • How can I control the zoom on my mac mouse?

    How can I control the zoom function on my mouse? In the middle of working on things my hand will rub the mouse by accident and all of a sudden the context within the screen is large. I have no idea of how to work this feature on my mouse and most times to get it to return to normal, I have to escape out of the work I am performing.

    If you are pressing the "Control" button on the Mac keyboard, scrolling up will zoom in and scrolling down will zoom out. You can disable this if it annoys you through System Preferences > Universal Access. If you are using Mountain Lion, it would be System Preferences > Accessibility.
    Uncheck the in the "Seeing" or "Zoom" section that says "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom".  It may be slightly different if you have an older OS X version. I have Mountain Lion and am going off of memory on the older versions.

  • How can I control a button from one swf file to another swf file?

    Hi,
    I have a main.swf file. From that file I am accessing the external.swf file which is an external file.
    Now, how can I write code on my main.swf file for the button which is on my external.swf file?
    Activities.MainPanel.close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
    Activities.MainPanel.close_btn (This buttons is actually on external.swf file, but I want to write code on main.swf file to execute it on external.swf) how can I control one swf button on other swf file?
    Thanks.

    Here's some example code that you should be able to adapt to your needs.
    // create a new loader object instance...
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    // make the download request...
    var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("external.swf");
    // add a complete event listener to the loader
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
    // start the actual loading process...
    loader.load(request);
    // create a new empty movieClip instance, you will put the loaded movie into this movieClip once its loaded
    var externalMovie:MovieClip;
    // this function is called when the download has finished and the file is ready to use...
    function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
       // set the contents of the loaded movie to the new empty movieClip...
               externalMovie = MovieClip(event.target.content);
       // add this new movie to the display list...
       addChild(externalMovie);
    Now you can refer to the loaded movie with the instance name "externalMovie". So if, for instance, you want to address a button in the loaded movie, you could write something like this on the main timeline:
    externalMovie.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
    function btnClickClose(event:MouseEvent):void {

  • How can i control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?

    Sup buddies,
    How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
    As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
    needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
    all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .

    hello, kiwi
    quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
    yes.
    maybe,...
    1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
    or,
    2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
    the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
    another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.

    How can I control the frequency of each photo on apple tv?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photos in slideshows will only be showed once until the slideshow repeats. If you want it to show more than once you will need to duplicate it.
    Photos in screensavers show randomly.
