LoadMovie

Hiya again!

Made a mc called movie4 in my main swf and in movie4 i put a loadmovie script, but its default position is in the top left corner, how do i specify the x and y axis?

Thx in advance.

Hi, theres a few different ways:

newClip = loadMovie("newMovie.swf", 1);
newClip._x = 50;
newClip._y = 25;

or:

_root.movie4._level1._x = 24;
_root.movie4._level1._y = 2;

The second form might be easiser if you put it in another movie. So you would have movie4->newextramovie->newMovie. Then you can use:

_root.movie4.extramovie._x = 22;
_root.movie4.extramovie._y = 12;

Thx Tann.

But, i have bg.swf that is the main movie and in that one i made a mc named movie4 and in movie4 i put the loadmovie script calling for player.swf, so i couldent get the scripts u made to work.

Hope u can still help me.

Hi, inside movie4 put:

newClip = loadMovie("player.swf", 1);
newClip._x = 50;
newClip._y = 25;

Hi.

Still doesent work, its up in the left top corner
Well i will struggle on anyway.

Thx again, Tann.

Hi, ok try this out if you have the time, again this goes inside movie4:

newClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("subHolder", 1);
newClip.loadMovie("player.swf");
newClip._x = 50;
newClip._y = 25;

if your using flash 5 try:

this.createEmptyMovieClip("subHolder", 1);
subHolder.loadMovie("player.swf");
subHolder._x = 50;
subHolder._y = 25;

Wow!

Thats great, thx, it worked even better, it positioned itself exactly where i put the mc movie4 so i dont really need the x and y axis anymore

Thx alot Tann, u r the man.
