I've got an animation (arrows following paths on a map), and I need it to repeat about 10 times per second, so that there's an endless stream of arrows following their paths.
View 2 RepliesI have a button with animations on scroll-over. How can I 'duplicate' this button, as I want several more buttons with the same template, just different text (and different functions called)?
Sorry for the foolish question, but the Duplicate button is frustrating, as when I change the text in the new button it changes the text in the other button. It's like I'm changing a template.
Perhaps it is a misunderstanding of symbols? I believe symbols are basically template classes...is there a way to generate a new instance of a button symbol?
I'm using Actionscript 2 for this interactive.This is what I'm trying to get a button to do:on release:check "mainmovie1" mc on main timeline.If "mainmovie1" mc's timeline is at frame labeled "finished" go to label "1.0" on main timeline If not, go to label "fake_1.0" main timeline
View 2 RepliesIn as2 I am using:
_parent.gotoAndPlay(_parent._currentframe + 1);
to have one movieclip play and then when it finishes the next movieclip plays. How do I do this is as3?
I have main flash file (main.swf) that will load movie clips dynamically one after the other from a source xml file. I need to check if the movie clip currently loaded is finished so that the main.swf will trigger the code to load the other movie clip. I can use both emptyMovieClip or loader component with contentPath to load the external swf files.
View 3 RepliesI'm just wondering if there is an event for MovieClips that tells when the MovieClip's animation has finished playing. Basically, I have an explosion movie clip that I put on the stage. I want to have it animate once through it's loop, then remove itself.
View 1 RepliesI have a movieclip that plays on click of my 3 buttons I managed to get that working fine. When I click a button I want to temporarily disable all buttons until the movieclip finishes playing then enable the buttons to be clickable again.
my code looks like this:
stop();
but1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,but1_onMous eClick);
function but1_onMouseClick(e:MouseEvent):void
[Code]....
Then same thing for but2 and but3 only with gotoAndStop(2 or 3 );
and then I have a stop(); at the 1st frame in my movieclip.
I've got all of my ActionScript 3 in a document class file. I want to stop a child movieclip when the animation has finished.
How do I add a listener for that and trigger some code on the last frame of the child MC?
i want to play an animation that is converted into a movieclip and indicate success of that level and then after the movieclip is finished playing then i want to run a function which will bring user to the next level.
View 4 RepliesSo basically i'm trying to allow the movieclip to play and once its played move onto the next frame.
I'm using Actionscript 3.0. and the movie clips around 6-7 seconds long.
I am loading a 29 frame movieclip on fame 15 of the main timeline. Is there a way to have it continue playing maintimeline when it finishes. So when it gets to frame 20 of the movieclip AS sends control back to frame 16 of the maintimeline.
View 1 RepliesThe problem I have is that I have created a Movie clip of an animated logo. The timeline within the movieclip contains 163 frames.
I have placed the movie clip on the main timeline at frame 1. What I would like to happen is the movie clip to the play all the way through and then move to the next frame (frame 2) of the main timeline to continue the animation. the next frame has a frame label, named 'main'. I have split the timeline up into sections as I am created a webpage.
There must be a pretty straight forward Actionscript code to do this, I have come across some things but they dont seem to make much sense to me. I am pretty good at the drawing and animation side of things in flash but I complete newbie when it comes to the Actionscript code.
I am in a movieclip, on the 1st frame of my main timeline. Once my movieclip has reached a point/finished, I would like return to the main timeline.

I have a slideshow that loads an image via XML, then adds said image to a placeholder inside a movie clip, and then proceeds to play a little sliding animation via the movie clip. What I need to do is figure out how to get an event that the movie clip is finished and sitting back on frame 1 so that I can run a "nextImage" function that loads the next image from the XML. I'm pretty new to actionscript, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to properly handle what should be a simple event. If I put a simple listener at the end of the movieclip, it doesn't talk to the main script at all?
View 6 RepliesI'm having some difficulties on checking when an animation in a movieclip is finished. It's not a tween, otherwise I could make a tween handler with the "onMotionFinished"-property. My situation is different.My movieclip has 60 frames with each frame containing a 3D image. These 60 frames make the impression that a die is rotated in 3D.How do I check in the actions of my scene (root) when the animation is finished?
I already tried making an interval that constantly polls if a variable "finished" is set to true (which the movieclip sets to true on its last frame).This solution isn't really accurate enough due to the interval number.Setting the interval to 1 millisecond won't do any good either.Is there a listener object or something else that makes this possible?On my last frame of the movieclip is a stop() statement which might be polled by a listener?
i have a diagonal movieclip that I am trying to scale along with the background video. The background video scales perfect, I am attaching the diagonal movieclip (br in the code as bottomright) with addChild
Instead of scaling with the window, it seems to repeat such as the image is displaying. this is the main section of the code that is doing the scaling
var br:mc_bottomright = new mc_bottomright();
addChild(br);
//proportional scale
if ((stage.stageWidth / stage.stageHeight)> (owidth/oheight))

I have converted a short clip to an .swf file, i want to implement it on my website:
<object width="400" height="300">
<param name="movie" value="movie.swf">
<embed src="movie.swf" width="400" height="300">
</embed>
</object>
When i play it it autoplays (that's fine) but it also keeps repeating over and over, i'd like it to stop at the end and just display the end frame (as mentioned i converted a movie so i cant do it with actionscript in the .fla file).
I'm making a website at the moment which will all be done in flash (currently 1000px wide x 450px height) - what i want is a background which is consume the entire width of the page regardless of what the users screen resolution is, im not sure if this is a html/css thing or a flash thing.
View 3 RepliesIf you go to this URL and scroll all the way down - you will see that my Flash movie is showing up twice in the screen - stacked vertically on top of each other. Can you hit view source and tell me what code I need to take out of my HTML page to stop it from repeating a second time.[url]...
View 3 RepliesI am importing several external files using the Loader-class, and one of them is an swf-file. When doing so (I had done it successfully before, so did not expect any issues), I ran into all sorts of errors, and finally Flash crashed.
I put down a trace in the constructor function, and it didn't trace just once, but kept on tracing, suggesting that the constructor was stuck on loop. I guess the loading of too many of the same swf is what causes flash to eventually crash.
Here is my code (the swf im loading is now a simple test-file which contains an image and no code):
private var slides:Loader = new Loader();
public function DocumentClass()
{

I don't know whether anybody here's been to [URL] before, but if you'll notice, the site's background doesn't appear to tile, yet continually re-fills the browser window upon re-size while still loading quickly.
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash CS3 and would like to create an image gallery that randomly loads images listed in an XML file without repeating any of the images until all have been displayed once.I've managed to combine a couple of tutorials to create an image gallery that randomly loads images from an XML file, but images often repeat before all images have been displayed once (there are over 2 dozen images). Here's the code:
Code:

function loadXML(loaded) {

How do I make a random sequence of 10 numbers, from an array of 20 numbers in total, without repeating any of them on that sequence?
View 3 RepliesI guess its some kind of random array.. but i dont know how to form it, need it for game(dont want same frames repeat its stupid ) And only specific frame numbers(i have motions between specific frame numbers).
View 1 Repliesif i have numbers of frames 31,64,97,134,175...(between each of that frames i have motion tween, so it isnt 1,2,3,4...).i want that it goes random in the array of numbers but with no repeating (if i passed 64,175,134 i shure dont want to go on 175 again or something similar), and when that array is finished(all the frames are passed) i want from flash to go on exc. frame 205.
View 2 RepliesI have a movieclip with multiple movieclips inside of it, and these movieclips' alpha changes over time(basically its a map with graphics nested within that light up certain areas of the map). By change I mean they "flash" ond and off once. I have each of these counties in an array and I have a timer and for loop firing on each of these mcs and I push them into the array. Problem is I keep getting an error (1009) after it runs through one cycle.... I of course need it to loop.
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.Strong;
import flash.utils.Timer;

I am simply trying to start a timer when a dynamic movieclip ("mySlide") has finished playing. Here's my code:

I have 100+ of the same movieclips on the stage at the same time, all positioned differently.i'm getting really tired of clicking on one of them, then clicking in the instance name box then typing "i65", then clicking on one of them, then clicking in the instance name box then typing "i66"...
is there anyway flash can fill this information in for you? or a plugin anyone's heard of? this isn't really an actionscript question, I'm not so fussed about selecting the different movieclips based on getChildAt or any of that stuff, I'd just really like a faster way of assigning instance names.
Is there a way to duplicate objects, like lines across the screen quickly without using AS3 at a fixed distance apart? I tried using Ctrl+D but it has a distance for 7 pxl apart. I want to change that to 1 pixel. Is there a way to change this setting or a tool in flash IDE to perform duplicating quickly?
