How to get width/height of a movie clip in CreateJs?

In AS3.0 it is like:
      mc.width and mc.height
In AS2.0 it is like:
      mc._width and mc._height
What about createJs
    mc.????

The answer is get "nominalBounds" and then get width and height:
var bounds = mc.nominalBounds;
bounds.width will give you width and
bounds.height will give you height
Thanks

CSS layout - how to get 100% height

I'm starting with a Dreamweaver template (2 column elastic,
left sidebar, header and footer). It's set up in CSS so that there
is a div container with a few other divs inside it. I want 100%
width and height. In the CSS for the container, I added width: 100%
and height: 100%. Width is now 100%, but height is not responding.
This is the only code I changed from the original template.
Any idea how to get my height to 100%?
Thanks!

Google "Faux columns".

Help!! working on a movie on Imovie. I had to delete a music file from a clip section and now there are some clips that have no audio!!! don't know how to get the audio back to my clips!!!! Help!!!

You can use some third party software to copy the music from your old iPod back to computer first, and then import the music into iTunes and re-sync them to yournew iPod. Here is a guide about how to transfer iPod music to computer. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

How Do I Make Bitmap, Graphic, or Movie Clip into a clickable link??

I am designing a website entirely in flash (macromedia flash) but I cannot get the bitmap, graphics, or movie clips clickable links, although when hovered over turns into a hand. Any suggestions? I have also tried the following script;
on (release){
getURL("http://www.google.com/", "_blank")
Obviously I didnt use google, but still no go.
I'm hot linking the raw fla file below. I bought this template online and have modified it alot (all cosmetic) but I cant get the tabs to be links!? I used action script (the one posted above) in every layer and the text inside the tabs. But still doesnt work Does anybody know whats wrong?
Sorry, but I dont know much in action script, I'm a c++ and web designer, this is my first time working in only flash.
http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/2449178_iizru/_menu2_fv8.fla
Here is my modded template in my website: http://9karim.com/adminI only need to modify the menu bar

I wouldn't say you're screwed, you just have some work ahead of you to find out what are actually the buttons in that thing. If you look at the file on stage you'll see a large turquoise shape (an invisible button) that when you select it shows it has an instance name of "menu"... I still couldn't figure out what it has to do with those animated tabs, but it may lead to further discoveries.
There's a lot of stuff woven into that file, and with the frame by frame animation, it's hard to isolate just about anything. Based on what I see in the library as far as object naming goes, and your not knowing what's where, I'd conclude that this is an "acquired" design that has been decompiled into the fla you are trying to figure out. While I haven't any experience with decompiled files, it wouldn't surprise me if there is an increased level of complexity as a result of how the decompiler rebuilt the file.

Write a jpeg decoder that can figure out how to determine the width/height of a jpeg file? Google it.
Or if you're really lazy, load each jpeg using the
Toolkit.loadImage( URL ) function and use getWidth/getHeight from there, but that's slow.

How to get WIDTH and HEIGHT fields from applet tag?

I am developing an applet using JDK1.1 (to ensure microsoft jvm compatability).
A problem I'm facing is that there are no getWidth() or getHeight() method for Applet in 1.1, so I am hoping I can get this info from my html: <APPLET CODE="MyApplet" WIDTH=600 HEIGHT=856></APPLET>
getParameter didn't work, so does anyone have any ideas how I could get the width and height?
Cheers,

How to set width/height of iPad app in ipa file

Hello,
I am developing an app for iPad in Flash Builder 4 and Packager for Iphone.
I set the width and height node values in the descriptor XML and compile the application. When I run the same in iPad, I am not able to see any effect on the app's width and height.
Also, in default load, app opens in dimensions as per the iphone view and not specifically for iPad.
Any help?

How to get Font height

OK I give up.
How can I get font height, not size. For example for font size 12, font height is 17.
This method, getHeight(), is accessable through FontMetrics object which is accessable from Graphics object. I can't get Graphics simply with
JLabel lab = new JLabel();
lab.getGraphics(); // this gets me null
so how can I get the font height ?

Get the FontMetrics object from your Component and its font (you can use method getFont):

How to get the height of JPanel?

Hi.
I am new to GUI programming.
I am trying to get the height of a JPanel which I put inside a JFrame but the getHeight() method returns me zero.
My code are as follows:
public class Form2
public static void main(String[] args)
JFrame f = new JFrame();
JPanel p = new JPanel();
f.setTitle("Testing...");
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.setSize(400, 300);
f.setVisible(true);
f.add(p);
System.out.println(f.getHeight());
System.out.println(p.getHeight());
Can somebody enlighten me on how to obtain the height of the JPanel?
Thanks in advance.

Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
I am trying to get the height of a JPanelComponents don't have a size until the JFrame is made visible and all the components are layed out by the LayoutManager. You can use a WindowListener to tell when a frame is shown.

How to load dynamic text inside a movie clip?

hello all - i have a main stage where on the first frame my
"home" movie clip displays. i did this by dragging/dropping, and
then i put a stop action. all works fine.
inside this home movie clip on the main stage, there are
links to other movie clips. for example, to get to my faq's page -
you click that button, then it takes you to frame 4 on my main
stage, where my faq's movie clip (followed by stop action) has been
dragged/dropped and displays properly.
within the faq's movie clip this process is repeated, with
buttons taking to you various pages (different frames where
different movie clips play - all works fine).
so now i want to add a dynamic text field within my faq's
movie clip. i have read numerous tutorials where i have created the
text file but i have not been able to display it with success
within my faqs movie clip.
here is some code that my dvd tutorial instructs me to place
on main stage as i practice getting this to work:
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader ();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
var myLV:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLV.onLoad = function (success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
_level5.loadedInfo.htmlText = myLV.info;
} else {
_level5.loadedInfo.text = "There has been an error loading
the requested information. Please contact the webmaster.";
and here is some code that i place on the faqs button within
my main movie clip that takes me back to main stage and plays faq
movie clip all successfully:
on (release) {
//Movieclip GotoAndPlay Behavior
_root.gotoAndPlay("4");
//End Behavior
and finally, here is some code that i place within my faqs
movie clip in an attempt to display my dynamic text within the faqs
movie clip - so far unsuccessful:
_level0.myLV.load("vars/faqs.txt");
NOTE:
i have published this to view - not working.
i have my faqs text file starting as info=
i have eliminated white space within my text file
i am using flash 8 pro
can anyone offer some sugestions? thanks!

hmmmmm lemme double check as i seem to be a bit lost now.
// this is my actions layer code on frame 4 of main timeline:
stop();
var myLV:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLV.onLoad = function (success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
_level5.loadedInfo.htmlText = myLV.info;
} else {
_level5.loadedInfo.text = "There has been an error loading
the requested information. Please contact the webmaster.";
myLV.load("vars/faqs.txt");
1. fyi - at frame 4 on main timeline, one layer beneath the
actions layer where i dragged/dropped my faqs movie clip i gave my
faqs movie clip an instance name of "mainfaqs" - although nowhere
do i refer to this specific mc within my code.
2. where would i replace/insert the following code?
_level0.faq_mc.loadedInfo.text = myLV.info;
3. i didn't know about embedding font but i saw the option
and embedded it - still no results.
4. i'm not sure how to do the following:
_level5.loadedInfo.text ='test'; //although I would still
change the path as above
To see if your getting a return from the load call adn text
file, use a trace statment before the success condition and see
what it returns:
trace(myLV);
sorry to be such a pain - i really have looked around for
answers through previous postings and i googled it and i've been
taking instruction through lynda.com and dvds but i seem to be
stuck here.... as always - thanks for your time

AE How to Change the color of a movie clip?

I have a movie clip of a White Show Avalanche. How can I change the color from White to another earthly color. I would like to post 2 images, one still of the white avalanche and one still image of the color or look I am after. Can you post or attach images to this thread? If so how?
I am not just trying to change the Hue/Saturation.

To elaborate on Ko's post: In RGB space, White is presented by full values of 1 (or 255, if you like that better) for Red, Green and Blue. Since there's no differential between the individual components, there's nothing to shift the Hue. Hence you will have to find alternate ways of recoloring your stuff.
A simplistic way would e.g. be using effects such as Tint, Tritone or Colorama based on the Luminance. A more elaborate way would be cutting up the whole thing in multiple pieces (debris, shadows, waves, edges) and color correct each part individually. In any case you will very likely have to work with multiple instances of your layer and apply some masking here and there.

Can't get Simple button to Load Movie Clip

Hi I've looked around for the answer to my question on this
forum
but havent found it so here it goes. I am working on this
company's
Flash site that was built by an outside studio. I am using
CS3.
The url to the site is
http://www.bubbakeg.com.
(this link will take you to the main page click the shadow
graphic
on the left under Bubba and this will take you to the site I
am speaking
of. The site is basically 5 different pages or movie clip.
What I am
trying to do is basically change the "Spring Break" middle
graphic
(which is a Movie Clip) on the HOME page and add a simple
button
that will direct the user to a new page. When I replaced the
graphic
with a new Movie clip there was no problem but I have added
a
button to load a new page (movie clip) and nothing happens.
This
button is in the movie clip of the new graphic which is
called up
when the page loads. If i take this button and just put it
on the
Main Stage in Scene 1 by itself it works and loads the page
(movie clip). It does not however when it is embeded in the
Movie
Clip. The Flash site is basically 5 different Movie Clips
loaded into
an "Empty Clip". This empty clip has a timeline with each of
the
clips labeled and with their respective sized placeholders.
And
when you click on either the links on the Nav bar or the
graphic
for each page it loads that movie clip on the main page. It
seems
like the button only wants to work on the main timeline. I
have
even replaced the code for the "Contact" button with the code
for the new button and it worked (opening new page). Here is
the
code for the new button that does not work:
on (release) {
_root.contentHolder.myHeight = 307;
_root.contentHolder.newLoc = 9;
heightAnimation();
I know the location and height from the above code are
referring to the placement and sizing of each movie clip
in the "Empty Clip". As i said before this heightAnimation
and the resizing of the new clip works fine when the
button resides in Scene 1 on the Main Timeline but not
within the new movie clip (graphic Ive created.)
I will upload the main chunk of the code that resides
in Scene 1 on the first frame of the "Actions" layer.
If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it very much!
Please let me know if I can provide anymore info.
Thanks!
Greg

change:
function newLayerBT_CLICK(MouseEvent):void{
to:
function newLayerBT_CLICK(e:MouseEvent):void{

How to detect the end of a movie clip: what eventListener to use?

I'm doing a rather fancy button with up,down,rollover,rollout,and static states, something the standard flash button structure isn't capable of as far as I can tell, and believe me, I've tried it.
Here's the setup: My main timeline has a series of frames with stop(): scripts, and each frame has a movie clip representing what should happen during that state: still, rollover, rollout, mousedown, mouseup
I can't get the mouseup event to work.
Here's what I've tried so far that doesn't work:
1. in the imbedded movieclip, no script at the end. Result: This just loops the embedded clip.
2. in the imbedded movieciip, put gotoAndPlay("NextFrame"), where "NextFrame" is the label in the root movie where I want to go. result: loops clip
3. in the imbedded movieciip, put root.gotoAndPlay("NextFrame"), where "NextFrame" is the label in the root movie where I want to go. result: error
I think what I need to do is write an eventListener for the root actionscript, but I don't know what event to listen for.
What event is thrown when a movieclip finishes playing?
:<)McFrisco

You have to create your own mechanism(s) for detecting the end of a movieclip being reached. You can either build code into the end of the clip itself, possibly dispatching an event that is being listened for by a containing timeline, or you could continuously monitor the currentFrame of the clip to see if it equals the totalFrames value.
