This is a real general question but I'll explain what I'm trying to ask for.I'm trying to make a button that when you press it, you continue on to the next "scene." I know how to do that now.I also want music to play when clicking the button but the issue remains, how will the music keep up if the user is pressing it too soon? I don't want it to end abruptly so I need a code that fades the music out (or in).
View 1 RepliesIm working on a project where i have to develop an audio application for an android smart phone, but i have to present a mock app so i designed it in flash. I have a rough app where it loads the song, plays, pauses, foward, and previous, but im stuck flash isn't my first language, as you can tell from the attached .as file there are two things i need help in one is: when one clicks the next button the audio clip from the current song should fade out and the next song should fade in while the other song fades out. second thing is i don't know how to get a working seek bar for the player.

View 7 RepliesI'm designing a site for a friend and I have a menu bar across the top with 6 buttons. I made your basic rollover with CSS, but now I'm asked if something can be done about the abrupt change from the down state to the rollover state. Not knowing much at all about Flash, I thought this would be pretty simple and a good way to get acquainted with the program. But after spending hours today rummaging through Google I'm considering digging my eyes out with a spoon. It seems that no tutorial quite tells me what I need to do, and when I try to adapt what I'm told to what I need, it all stops working. There seems to be a dozen different ways to do the same thing and now I'm just really confused. So here is what I need:
When you mouse over the button, it quickly transitions/fades into the highlight/rollover image. When you move the cursor away, it fades back to normal. And *possibly* a quick transition to another highlight on click.
I need to create in which two images fade in and fade out, and each of them must be clickable and hyperlink to a separate URL.I've got the fading going okay, but I cannot for the life of me get even a single button to work on it.

View 6 RepliesI have an external preloader that plays music while the main swf is loading. Everything works fine but it sounds a little abrupt when the music just stops as soon as the swf is loaded. Is there a way to start fading out the music when the progress bar gets to, say, 80%, so that by the time the main swf opens, the music is completely faded out?

I have a video and background music in one flash file. I need the background music to fade out when the video is playing, and fade back in when the video is paused. Everything works fine until the Music On/Off button is inserted.If you try out the attached FLA, the background music is able to fade out when the video is played and fade in when the video is paused. But once you toggle the Music On/Off button, the background music fade in/fade out doesn't work anymore.

I made a simple page with several buttons that play music, but then decided I wanted a video (flv) to first play automatically, and when that ends the page with the buttons appears. How can I do that? Right now I have four layers using one frame. Layer one has the AS code, two has the text, three has the buttons and the fourth layer has a background image.

View 3 Repliesi want to create a small music player (that play only 1 song) which contains- a Play button - button symbol a Stop button - button symbol a title (show what song is currently playing) - movie symbol music - i guess movie symbol
the only problem i couldnt solve (the rest are working fine) is that the play and stop buttons arent working. the scripts i wrote for them are:
on(press){
a.play();
}
[Code].....
respectively, while "a" is the instant name for the symbol which contains the song.
i think i figured out that the problem is that in the music symbol there is only 1 frame (which contains the song- i just went to frame #1 and dragged to the edit screen the song from the library).
What I am trying to do is have multiple play/stop buttons on one page. I've been watching tutorials trying to figure out the best way to do this, but it seems there are so many different ways. I am making the band's name as the play/stop button (one color as play, a different color as stop). I've successfully done that to one button. What I'd like to be able to do is add anywhere from 3-6 songs (all different bands/buttons) per page.
Also, if one song is playing and another song is clicked, I would like to stop the first song and start whatever one is clicked so there aren't multiple songs playing at one time.
And if it's not too much to ask, once one song is either done playing or another is clicked, if it could go back to the first state of the button, that would be amazing.
I will paste my code below for the button I have. If there is a simpler way to do it, I'm totally open to that. Like I said, there seems to be so many ways to do everything, I'm not sure which is best.
var loadSnd:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Song1.mp3");
var thisSnd:Sound = new Sound();
var sndTrans:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
thisSnd.load(loadSnd);
[Code]....
How can I get the pause button to stop sounds and music, and the play button to start them up again? As of now, it only stops the animation, and lets the music continue.

View 6 RepliesLook at the attached images for an example : My main goal is that when I roll over the services button, I want the submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade in. Then when I roll over the portfolio button, I want the first submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade out and the second submenu ( clients, corporate, weddings, etc..) to fade in and to stay like this. Finally when I roll over testimonials, the second submenu fades out. And so on for the rest of the buttons.
FYI, i know how to animate the buttons to fade in/out but i dont know how to make them fade out when i roll over the other buttons.. I know this can be done with action script but I have no clue how... Here is my fla and swf.[URL]

View 3 RepliesI am creating an animation. In the Stage I have filled up it almost with many squares in its different rows and columns, and leaving something of space among them (something as well as the tiles), and each of these are buttons, that when they settle above an animation begins type fade, but returning to the main color. My question is with respect to creating an animation with them, I have all in the Stage, but my intention is that when begins, appear 1 to 1, with fade in, and randomly.

The AS3 script below is a cross-fade that is time-based with no user control. How do I keep the cross fade and control it with the "before" and "after" buttons? And with the API opening in its "before" state? And for users to be able to click and/or hover between the two. The link to what I'm trying to set up is:

I have 6 "status" buttons as movieclips... and I have a separate menu with the same options as the 6 status buttons. When I click a menu option from that separate menu, I'm trying to dim out the 5 buttons that are inactive leaving the item chosen active.
Here is the code that I have so far but when I click one of the menu items, all of the buttons dim instead of all but the item clicked.[code]...
What I want to do is:
Click on button one: Content1 fades to view
Click on a different button: Content1 fades to white, content2 fades to view.
I can make it so the content fades to view, but I don't know how to made it fade away and then have new content fade in when you click another button.
I have three buttons on my stage, each with an instance name of USA_btn, Canada_btn, and Mexico_btn. I also have corresponding text with instances names of USA_txt, Canada_txt, and Mexico_txt. When file opens, you see all three buttons on stage and USA_txt. When the user clicks Canada_btn, the USA_txt should fade out, and Canada_txt should fade in. I need to accomplish this with action script as I will eventually have 10 combinations.
I can determine the instance name when a button is clicked with event.CurrentTarget.name. How can I use the instance name to:
1) Fade out old text?
2) Fade in new text?
I assume I will set opacity=0 but I keep getting error #1056: Cannot create property alpha on String.
I have four movie clips with instance names of "purple_ob", "green_ob", "orange_ob" and "blue_ob" and four buttons "purple_but", "green_but", "orange_but" and "blue_but" I want to have the movie clips automatically fade from one to another continually with a 5 second pause inbetween, but then if the user clicks one of the four buttons it will fade the relevant movieclip in. Then if nothing else is pressed the fading will carry on working through the four images in a loop.
So far I have the movie clips fading on a button press but how do I implement the automatic fading from one MC to another?

I just started to mess with Flash past week, however I will learn all that's necessary. This time I AM looking for a quick fix though, since I already know how to make the simplest slideshows with next, previous buttons, but I don't know how to make images fade into each other and add captions, as well as stop the animation when mouse is over the image. I may be ignorant - still a newbie - but I think it all has to do with just adding right tags in Actions.[URL]
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a slide show which I would like work automatically (fade in and out) as well as being able to be prompted to switch via buttons... I know this is a super simple thing, but I cannot get all the buttons to work. The buttons are copies of the same instance with different instance names and are located at the 3 respective frames in timeline where the pieces of slideshow should fade in/out. I get the first set of buttons to work:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
controls.bttn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1);
function clickSection1 (evtObj:MouseEvent) {
// trace shows what's happening in the output window
trace ("The Button 1 was clicked!")
But when I add more buttons that are located later on in a timeline, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
