I’m trying to dynamically add thumbnails to my image gallery from an xml file. I’m trying to use loadMovie() to do it since none of these images are in my library. The problem is that when I load the image into my empty movie clip I can’t access its properties. Why is this, and how can I get around it? The important part of my code is shown below:
this.IMGHolder = new MovieClip();
//this.createEmptyMovieClip(this.IMGHolder, 0);
this.IMGHolder.loadMovie(IMGPath);
this.IMGHolder._x = -500;
this.IMGHolder._y = -50;
I commented out the 2nd line just to see if I even needed it and I didn’t seem to need it, but I’ve tried it both ways and neither allows me to change x, y, or scale properties. Additionally when I trace these properties I get nothing, as though there were no x value or y value. Also, the picture I’m trying to load does in fact load, I can see it when I test the site. Thanks for the help.
