Ah, didn't know that about _xscale and _yscale - thanks, Fumio, that's
useful to know...

Cheers,
Ian

Most of MovieClip's properties are initialized when an external file is 
loaded into it.  But some properties including _x, _y, _xscale, and 
_yscale will hold their value.  Of course if you would like to calculate 
its scales based on the external file's actual size, you should do it 
after it is fully loaded.

RE: [Flashcoders] Resizing Imported Images

[Lehr, Theodore M.]

Forgive me I am going to break the sacred double posting rule :  ) but I
did not get a eply on the newbie list and this thread has already been
started here

Here's what I am trying - and I get the width at 65 each time it is
traced, and yet I still see the full image (ie 250x400)

ccnt=0;
rowy=10;
rowx=40;
for (i=0; i<26; i++) {
if (ccnt==7) {
ccnt=0;
rowy+=75;
rowx=40;
}
duplicateMovieClip (_root.tnHolder, "mc"+i, i+100);
setProperty ("mc"+i, _x, rowx);
setProperty ("mc"+i, _y, rowy);
this["mc"+i].loadMovie("gallery/"+i+".jpg");
trace(this["mc"+i]+" width = "+this["mc"+i]._width);
this["mc"+i].onLoad = function(){
this["mc"+i]._width=65;
this["mc"+i]._height=65;
}
  trace(this["mc"+i]+" width = "+this["mc"+i]._width);
ccnt++;
rowx+=75;
}

As soon as the image is loaded into the clip, the size of the clip will
adapt to the size of the image.
Therefore you have to store the original size of the clip, wait until
the loading is finished and then reassign the stored dimensions to the
clip:

myClipWidth = myClip._width;
myClipHeight = myClip._height;

this.createEmptyMovieClip('monitor', this.getNextHighestDepth());
monitor.onEnterFrame = function(){
var loaded = myClip.getBytesLoaded();
var total = myClip.getBytesTotal();
trace(_root.myClip+'gugus '+loaded);
if(loaded > 14 && loaded >= total){
myClip._width  = myClipWidth;
myClip._height = myClipHeight;
this.removeMovieClip();
}
}

myClip.loadMovie('BlueHills.jpg');

I am importing a jpg via load movie and I want to resize it... Say for
example I the jpg is 500x500 and the clip I am loading it into is 65X65
- after I import it it retains it's real size - how can I get it to
match the size of the movie it is loaded into?

*sigh*

var mcl:MovieClipLoader();


should be

var mcl:MovieClipLoader=new MovieClipLoader();

Re: [Flashcoders] Resizing Imported Images

You need to do the resizing after the image has fully loaded. The trouble is
if you just set the _xscale and _yscale (for example) and then call
.loadMovie(), the 'new movie' (the image) replaces all the attributes of the
old movie and you lose your _xscale and _yscale values.

If you're using MovieClipLoader, for example, you need to do the resizing in
onLoadComplete() or onLoadInit().

For example, something like this (from memory, so forgive typos):

var clip:MovieClip=createEmptyMovieClip("blank",getNextHighestDepth());
var mcl:MovieClipLoader();
var listener:Object=new Object();
listener.onLoadInit()=Delegate.create(this,onGraphicLoaded);
mcl.addListener(listener);
mcl.loadClip("myClip.jpg",clip);

function onGraphicLoaded(clip:MovieClip)
{
clip._xscale=50;
clip._yscale=50;
}

Ian

Re: [Flashcoders] Resizing Imported Images

[Martin Wood]

are you waiting until the image is loaded before manipulating the movieclip?

the MovieClipLoader class may be useful if you arent using it (or a 
suitable alternative)

Load it into a nested MC and resize that instead? Why don't you want to
resize the MC it's being loaded into?

Is there anyway to resize an image imported via loadMovie - not resizing
the mc it is loaded into - but the image itself?

no, once its loaded in the mc is the image.

you can always use another mc as a container if you require it.
