when you load a movie how do you tell it to appear in a certain place? i load it and it appears in the corner…how can i put it in another place?
the empty movie clip that you loaded a movieclip into using loadMovie is what you want to move.
loadMovie(“movieCliptoLoad”, “empty”) empty would be the movie clip you would want to move.
You can place the movieclip you’re loading it into freely across the stage. That shouldn’t be a problem.
If you’re creating it dynamically using createEmptyMovieClip, you have to move the created movieclip using actionscript:
mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("instance_name",1);
//1 is the depth as which the movieclip is created
mc.loadMovie("yourswf.swf");
mc._x = 25;
mc._y = 350;
//or whatever values you want

i did this and the movie did not load properly
You might already have a movieclip at the depth 1. Try changing 1 to another number.
there is 4 layers on the clip and i tried changing the number but nothing
Can you send me your FLA’s ?
having trouble attaching file…how?
