as3获取调整大小的movieclip的宽度

Question

I have a movie clip that I scaled by hand in the timeline.

I am now trying to get the WIDTH and HEIGHT with action script so I can load another movieClip into it and make it the same size.

However when I do the following code I can't position it correctly because the scale is WIDTH and HEIGHT displays the original size and not showing the scaled size cordinates. So when I place the new clip inside of it the I can't make it be the same WIDTH and HEIGHT as the rescaled clip;

ScaledMC.addChild(myMC);
myMC.x = - ScaledMC.width /2; //Because the MC registration is in the center

A work around could be some code to detect the x and y positions of the BOUNDARIES of the clip and where they are located on the stage.

Thanks for your time.

UPDATE: 4-25-12

I am posting full code of what I am trying to do and including FLA. When you click on the girl I need her to load into another movie clip. However the movie clip is scaled so when she gets loaded her position suddenly changes. I need it to look like she hasn't moved and stays in the same place.

import flash.geom.Rectangle;

var Girlx = Girl.x;
var Girly = Girl.y;

var b:Rectangle;
b = Room.ChalkBoard.getBounds(this);


trace(b);


Room.ChalkBoard.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);

function fl_ClickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    Room.ChalkBoard.startDrag();
}

stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_ReleaseToDrop);

function fl_ReleaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    Room.ChalkBoard.stopDrag();
    b = Room.ChalkBoard.getBounds(this);
}



Girl.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler);

function fl_MouseClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    //Room.ChalkBoard.scaleX = 1;
   // Room.ChalkBoard.scaleY = 1;
    Room.ChalkBoard.addChild(Girl);


    // I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO SCALE GIRL BACK TO SAME SIZE
    // EXAMPLE:

Girl.scaleY = 1 + Room.ChalkBoard.scaleY;

Girl.scaleX = 1 + Room.ChalkBoard.scaleX;
Girl.x = Girlx - b.x; /// This formula works if Room is at scaleX is 1;
Girl.y = Girly - b.y;  /// This formula works if Room is at scaleY is 1;


}

Answer 1

If your problem is that you scale the movieclip and want to use the original dimensions (I think this is what you are saying) then you could try something like the following:

ScaledMC.addChild(myMC); 
myMC.x = - (ScaledMC.width/ScaledMC.scaleX) /2; 

Notice that I added in a factor for scaling of the movieclip object itself

Answer 2

You can access the transformation Matrix that represents the object you've scaled with the IDE to work out how much you've scaled it. The key properties of Matrix that you want to look at are a for x-scale and d for y-scale.

Demo:

var matrix:Matrix = ScaledMC.transform.matrix;
trace(matrix.a, matrix.d);

You can then use the values to scaling your additional MovieClips, or whatever you need to do.

Bonus: Have a function:

function getScale(target:DisplayObject):Object
{
    var mtx:Matrix = target.transform.matrix;

    return {
        scaleX: mtx.a,
        scaleY: mtx.d
    }
}


// Get scaleX of ScaledMC.
trace(getScale(ScaledMC).scaleX);
