AS3 :: Make An Animation Reverse On A Mouse Event?
Aug 18, 2009
how to make an animation reverse on a mouse event.I have a FLA with 20 frames with a movie clip (box_mc) with a motion tween applied, left to right then stops. I simply want to be able to click on the box to make it play backwards to the starting position. Simple? Not for me it seems. The last frame has a stop action, and the first has the code below.
import flash.events.Event;
box_mc.buttonMode = enabled;
box_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goBack);

I am not sure if i am going at this the right way but here goes...i have a set of 5 images and im doing a simple tween animation where they scroll to the right and loop seamlessly. now i want the animation to go in reverse (left) if i mouse over a button. the animation and code work perfect but once it reaches the end of the timeline (in reverse) it stops and if i put a gotoAndPlay on that frame, flash freaks out and crashes. here is my code for the reverse button:

I need a letter to move slightly in one direction when the mouse hovers over it, and then move back to its original position once the mouse leaves the letter.

I have a flash that has a background symbol that responds to CLICK event. On top of that symbol I have a sprite that contains a Bitmap with transparent pixels. Both of them are added to the stage, so they are not related directly.
I want clicks on the transparent pixels on the sprite to go straight through to the background. I have read about mouseEnabled / mouseChildren but have not been able to make these work. The symbol ignores the mouse events when I use them, but does not pass it along as if its transparent.
Is this possible to do with flash? Or will I have to re-route mouse events?

When game starts, the car runs automatically. Then we click the SPACE button, movement of car stops. And the door of structure near car is available to CLICK.
But in coding I got this error code:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter listener must be non-null.
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/addEventListener()
at shfg_fla::MainTimeline/key_pressed()
This is some part of my game code...
case Keyboard.SPACE :
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,car_movement);
--street_mc.bluehome_mc.door_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,door_ready)

I have a quick question for any flash smartypantses out there....I'm looking for the most efficient way to do this weird thing...
I'm trying to create 6 menu buttons (all text) that when you click one, a submenu drops down (more lines of text - that fade in individually).
[Code]....
What I'm having trouble with is figuring out how to get this submenu to "close back up" (animation) when someone clicks one of the other main menus (Colors or Locations, in this example.)
How can I get it to perform this animation BEFORE it navigates to the next menu section?

I made a flash banner that includes a videofile and some vector animations. I would like this banner to play from fram 1 to the last fram and then reverse play back to frame 1 ad infinitum (the whole movie should do this that is). I cant just reverse the frames though, because of the videofile (at least I think so?)

I am trying to get my animation to play in reverse order and this is a pain in my leg.I have most of it figured out, this script below. I need to know if and how do I get this forward function to stop at a labled frame or key frame and not just use a number of px.
In this example I have x: "100".I need this to just play till it reaches a stop actions / lable frame or key frame. I have been trying to get this animation to play in reverse order for about a week now and I came across the TweenMax and it has a lot of good subclasses, but not much information online about the reverse subclass.
stop()
// importing the classes TweenMax and easing
import gs.TweenMax;
import fl.motion.easing.*;

I'm triggering the appearance of a tooltip via MOUSE_OVER on a button and I'm finding it keeps getting triggered if I keep the mouse pointer over the tooltip. Both the tooltip and button are MovieClips
How can I prevent this?
Here's a snippet of my code:
for(var i:Number=0; i < MapContainer.numChildren; i++) {
var Country:MovieClip = MapContainer.getChildAt(i) as MovieClip;
if(Country){ // make sure its a movieclip

I have a movie clip (cover) which covers another movie clip (stuff).I have set up Mouse Over on the Cover movie clip so that when you mouse over it, it tweens off of the Stuff movie clip.Then i have Mouse out set up on the Stuff movie clip so when you mouse out of it, the Cover clip tweens back in..
Now when I mouse over a MC that is inside the Stuff movie clip..it triggers the mouse out for the Stuff movie clip. this is undesired.I need my mouse to be active inside the Stuff movie, so mouseChildren = false doesn't work,because i then can not click on things inside the stuff movie clip.Right now i have managed to work around this by running a loop for each child inside the stuff, adding an event listener and telling the tween to stop on those events,but this won't work for children of those children without looping again.. and the children of those children's children would need looped as well... The question is.. How do I make a child movie clip not trigger the mouse out for it's parent(s)?

I have an simple animation playing using the tween event, then I have an even listener to check when it's finished. On finish I want the tween to play in reverse. I used yoyo() which half does what I want but this loops, is there anything that will just reverse like yoyo but just stop at the beginning of the tween

I just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?

Is there a way to make the transparent area from an png image not to register when I add with a mouse event to that image? What is happening is the rectangle around the symbol is effected by the mouse event.

I'm using the native Tween class and have a several tweens which make a button, when clicked, fly up into the corner of the screen. Then some time later yoyo() that tween to bring the button back to where it started.
The problem is that we have a replay button that replays from certain points on the timeline.
I want that if on the "screen" (not flash screens just our term for the range of frames that correspond to the timeline between those certain replay points) the user clicks replay that the button will always play the tween backward, i.e., flyout from the upper corner back to the "start" point.
Since there is no reverse() method or playInReverse() the only choice seems to be yoyo(). And one would think that fforward() followed by a yoyo() would make it always play backward. But I can't make it seem to work.
"Is there a way to ensure that a tween, regardless of how it last player or is still playing, can be made to go to the end and then play backwards?"

The app I want to build is an interactive map for a site I'm designing. In a nut shell, students looking to enter an exchange program should be able to use the map-image (as in, an actual 'map of the world') to preview possible destinations (I've attached an image of the two basic states to clarify).
After an introductory animation, I want a mouse-over to trigger a function that populates the map-image with a series of buttons. I need the buttons to be distributed according to information in an XML file (ie. x/y coords, some information text, and an animation to load upon being clicked). I want each button to call a mouse-over function that loads info data from an XML field and place it in a dynamic text field at the top. Then, I want each button, when clicked, to call a function that animates replacing the map-image with an image of the corresponding travel destination. Finally, I want a button on each image that will clear that image from the stage and call the function that populates the map so the process can start again.
I'm working out of a couple of books on AS3, but I'm a little hazy on how I ought to be constructing this thing. So here's the first place I've run aground: After the intro animation, I want the user to mouse-over the stage and have a second animation play (clearing away the introductory text), and I want the conclusion of the clearing animation to immediately call the map-populate function; but I don't want a mouse-over to have any effect until the introductory animation is finished. Is there an event dispatched automatically at the end of an animation? What is the event listener class?
I'm not sure if I should be storing each of these animations in an independent .fla file or if I should create them on all one timeline and have the program redirect to specific frames.

I have a movie clip I am using as a button (instance name btn1) and I added an event listener to it (using the following line): btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, animate1); the function "animate1" triggers some small animation when the mouse is over the movieclip. my problem is that the animation is triggered both on mouse over and mouse out events.

I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.

When the button on the right, mc goes forward until stop(), when the button on the left mc goes reverse until the stop(). In the first case i use gotoanplay, and everything goes fine. For the second I use prevFrame, like this:

This is a very simple thing I want to do: show informational popups when an area of the screen is rolled over. I was able to get this working in action script 3 with MouseEventListener and the visible =true/false property but can't seem to get it working correctly in AS2.

I have a movie clip working where on rollover it sends it to scene 2 to play an animation but I don't know how to bring it back to scene one once you roll off of the clip. I have so far:
R1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, do1);
function do1(event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndPlay(2)
stop();
}
what needs to be added to send it back to scene 1 after you MOUSE_OUT?

My stage has about 25 buttons on it. Each button when pressed to tweens the background to some random x/y coordinates and then loads an external swf file.This is all working, but the timing is off. How can I wait for the initial background tween to end before I make the loader call to the .swf file.Currently each button's behavior is called on the MouseEvent.CLICK event which calls a function that knows its unique filename.swf. I know you can add the MOTION_FINISH even to the tween event but then I would have to call a new function and lose track of the button that initially called it.

I have a "large" movie clip and "small" movie inside a "large" movie clip but on it's let's say upper right corner:
Code:
largeMc.addChild(smallMc);[
If i try to catch Mouse.DOWN events on them the following way:
Code:
largeMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, largeClicked);
smallMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, smallClicked);
Then of course both event are captured no matter where i click.Is it possible to capture independent mouse clicks on both of these two movie clips and if so, how can i do that?
