I'm working on a creating a button that will create (preferably unlimited) duplicates of one movie clip. I have something that works for Flash, pre-2004, but I'd like to update it to Actionscript 2.
Button:
on (press) {
i = i + 1;
[code]......
My problem is that when I click the letter movieclip it does create the duplicate as it should and it starts to drag the duplicate mc. However, when I release the clip it doesn't stop dragging? I realized that if I put onMouseUP event instead of onRelease it actually does stop dragging when I release the mouse. I would, however not like to use the onMouseUP event if possible.

Is it possible to use duplicateMovieClip to copy a movieClip into another movieclip, or is it only possible to duplicate it inside one and the same containermovieclip?

I'm new to flash/AS and trying to create a flash movie that shows a frame (1) which has a 'next' button to move to second frame(2), pauses uses a timer, before moving onto the next frame (3) which then has a 'next' button to move to the third frame (4).I'm building a presentation where the user has to pause to read the instructions on frame 2 before the next button appears.My two Action Scripts are, on frame 1 :
Code:
stop();
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,next_btnMouseClickEventHandler);[code]....
It doesn't seem to like me calling the same function in two places (frames 1 and 3) and gives me an error '1021 Duplicate Function Definition' but surely that is the point of a function, that you can call it many times? I have worked around it by calling the button and the function a slightly different name each time it is used but this just don't seem right.
i know that the problem arises from naming two functions with the same name, and i fixed that. i have also learned that keyframes mean nothing to a compiled swf, and so i cant copy/paste the code and change a couple of variables further in the timeline, i must again rename the functions. Im trying to see if there is an easier way to do thisi have 3 buttons, all 3 of them move the movie clip to a different frame. when the playhead is moved, the movie clip animates for a few frames then comes to a "stop" keyframe. At this point, each button is supposed to take you to a different set of frames, animate, stop and rinse and repeatcurrently, my AS looks as follows (frame 1)
ActionScript Code:
rear_switch.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame(event:MouseEvent):void

I have yet another "I die-problem", not so drastic this time, though. I've only tried to solve it for two hours or so,it's killing me Well, as usual, I end up here, at the Kirupa forums.. and of course, l end up emptying the coffe-machine at work.. *runs for more espresso* It's an issue regarding the duplicateMovieClip function. I know how it works, and I know how to duplicate MovieClips using the function, however, I do have an issue figuring this out: Now, explained roughly:I have a MovieClip which contains yet another MovieClip. I want to duplicate both the MovieClip and it's child, but I want it to stay inside the parent MovieClip, just as the original MovieClip contained the original child.

I'm curious to know if there is any examples you all could give me any examples of copying a function in AS3; then use that copy independent of the original function it copied. I want to make an animation system that heavily depends on one type of function. Since it depends on one type of function, I cant have every single piece of code calling back to the same function if I want to use it multiple times. Is there a way of properly doing this? are their performance consequences? I'd really like to do this instead of writing several different functions out separately that work nearly the same. (plus I need to feed a set of values into those functions that are created, some being called by event listeners of course)

I am trying to teach myself the workings of Flash in CS3 as I would like to teach myself some web design and eventually work until I know enough to do commission jobs. Right now though I really don't have anything to create so I decided to make a myspace profile in flash. I created a layout in flash where I have a series of 80x80 images that are 10px apart. There is another layer where each image has a corresponding clickable button with a defined instance name. There are a total of 15 buttons but when I try and export it to flash movie to see if it work I get 14 error messages telling me I have error 1021 which is discussed by adobe here: URL..."1021: Duplicate function definition.

I googled it, but couldnt exactly find how to fix it, im very confused.
the bold lines are the duplicate function definition that flash tells me.
Code:

reading up on it and asking a few people it looks like it is being called elsewhere - but it is not in any other class files and is not on any frames within the fla's either!!! even when i try to change function names it gives me the same error (also when i remove the path the class file from main i still get the error!)

I'm trying to create a simple game where you can click on shapes in a toolbar and then drop them on the screen.There are three shapes, so I want the user to be able to select different shapes and such.I've written the code thus far like this:

var cursor:MovieClip;
var shape:MovieClip;
var circ:MovieClip;[code]..........
I'm getting a duplicate function error and incompatible override error for both the "rect" and "pent" functions, but the code works fine if I eliminate these two functions and just include the "circle" function (albeit the old circle disappears the instant I drop a new one).
I have several buttons in my project which I have coded like the one below, I had them all working but have come back to my project and are receiving the error:1021 Duplicate Function Definition
stop();
btn_start_session.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUS E_DOWN, myBtnHandler13);
function myBtnHandler13(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(1, "Open_Live");
}
EDIT - I forgot to mention I have multiple scenes.
I have downloaded the trial version of Flash CS4. I have always been able to quickly learn and execute new programs, and after watching a bunch of great videos from this site and some tutorials, I was able to create nice Flash animations within hours. I thought that this was amazing... until I tried to make a few functions in AS3 to add hyperlinks.

How should I change the code below in order to avoid getting an error? It is giving me a 'duplicate function definition' error. Obviously I am not learning fast enough and made some mistake.
thumpy.addEventListerner(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var url:String = "[URL]";
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
navigateToURL(req, "_blank");
}
I know where the duplicate function is, but I can't figure out how to remove it without causeing more errors.

What I'm looking to do is create a banner that transitions between different photos while there are small square buttons on the side that when the user clicks on them, it jumps to the corrosponding frame where a new photo begins showing. I've seen it a bunch of times on other websites.After following the advice found here: http:[url]....Everything was going well until I hit a snag. When trying to preview my movie I got the following error:1021: Duplicate function definition
Now, I know there is a very obvious error here in my button scripts, but as I said, I have no idea what I'm doing. Can someone look at my code and tell me what's wrong and what I should change? I'll post all five scripts.The instance names by the way are "sidebutton1" thru "sidebutton5" if that's any help.Here's my codes for each of the five buttons (one of these code bits per button)
sidebutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f);
function f(e:Event):void{
gotoAndPlay(1);[code].......

I also have multiple scenes within the project some with multiple buttons per page.
I have made....Two shining stars (with different names) and they flicker at different rates finely.On top of each individual star (each) has an invisible button (with different names) to make (two) events happen.(each invisible button have different label names).One invisible button starts....a (tweened) little pink ball to go to certain points and return to its original starting point (signifying a journey)The second invisible button opens a drop down box.When I put in the action script for one it works fine.but when I put the other Action script code in the pink ball goes round and the Drop Down Box opens(which continues).Either way round one works but together they don�t.
Scene 1, 'Layers Actions ', Frame 1... 1021: Duplicate function definition. function nClick(event:MouseEvent):void{gotoAndPlay(25);}or if I do the pink ball thing first and then put the Drop Down Box action in it will say:- Scene 1, 'Layers Actions ', Frame 1... 1021: Duplicate function definition. function nClick(event:MouseEvent):void{gotoAndPlay(1);}
Here are all the action commands.....

I'm trying to extend the functionality (not extend the class itself) of the netconnection.call() function by enclosing a netconnection instance in a class.What I'm attempting to do is have a function that I have defined as "call" make a call to mynetconnection.call("", null, ...rest). For example:
Code:
public function call(method:String, ...rest):void {
this.mync.call(method, null, rest);
}
I have tried repeatedly to do this, and it's not working. The rest parameter feeds the parameters into an array, but is there any way to undo that on the inside of the method and pass a pseudo-list of parameters to nc.call() so that it will see it correctly?Is it possible to duplicate the functionality of a ...rest parameter into another function?

I am trying to draw circles dynamically with actionscript, duplicate/create multiples, have them move randomly around the stage independently of each other, and have them bounce off each other if they come in contact. The hit test for the latter has not been written yet. I can't get the circles to move independently of each other. My code is below.
** CHANGE STAGE COLOR TO SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHITE
Here I try to make 9 movie clips, draw circles inside of them, and apply the moveRandom function to one movie clip.
