Re: [Flashcoders] Insert new symbol
if you load your image in with a MovieClipLoader (prolly the best way to
go), you can position the image, only with the onLoadInit handler.
Only then will you know the dimensions of the loaded in image. the you
can shift it x of image = width of image * 0.5
something like this (AS2 example):
var containerClip:MovieClip = this.attachMovieClip("emptyClipFromLib",
"emptyClipFromLib" this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mclListener:Object = new Object();
var imageMcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
imageMcl.addListener(mclListener);
imageMcl.loadClip("images/image1.jpg", containerClip);
trace("the clip width: " + containerClip._width);
mclListener.onLoadInit = function(targetClip:MovieClip) {
trace("the clip width: " + targetClip._width);
};
Hope this helps,
Sid

Re: [Flashcoders] Insert new symbol
Just move the image so 0,0 is in the middle of it and animate from there.
