I am now working on an intro and found this very neat animation on a tutorial website : see below : The problem is I don't know how to stop it. See I want when it finishes the 20 circles its randomly generating to end so that I can start my site. I have not figured out how to do this.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("maskMC",5);
maskee.cacheAsBitmap = true;maskMC.cacheAsBitmap = true;
maskee.setMask(maskMC\\

I've just created my first flash animation. It's about 10 seconds. The only problem is that it loops continuously. In the "using Flash for the first time" lesson by Jen deHaan (great lesson1), she mentions that you can drop this code in "stop();" and she also recommends to add all such code to a single frame to make it easy to find. However, she does not mention how to add code to a frame.
Likewise, the Help file only discusses stopping the loop for specific "graphics instances," not for an entire scene or movie. I'm sure it's simple. I just can't find it.
I'm still sort of a knucklehead when it comes to using just code to do things like animate image transitions.I'd like to create is an endlessly looping movie that loads 3 images, then fades out each one using a tween to reveal the image just beneath it. As soon as the third image fades, I'd like for the animation to start over and just keep repeating.[code]
View 1 Repliesi want to learn how to end a section of a site smoothly and with a certain animation as oppose to the section just abrubtly ending. for exxample, if i have an item on screen and want to switch to another section, i want it so that when a link is clicked, that that 1st item, plays an animation fade out or whatever, and then the new section appears.

View 6 RepliesWe have a For Loop that duplicates and movie Clip.
for (counter=2;counter<=15;counter++) {
duplicateMovieClip(enemy,"enemy"+counter,counter+1 00);
}
On a hit test we want to remove all the duplicated movieclips. I acomplished this using a new scene with a frame action contianing another For Loop and a remove movie clip action. Hit test true move to new scene play frame action.
for (counter=2;counter<=15;counter++) {
removeMovieClip("enemy"+counter);
}
This worked.Is there a way to put a stop of the For Loop or Put a stop on the Duplicate movie clip?

View 18 RepliesI made a video in flash which somehow got corrupted, so the fla is no longer usable. Instead of remaking the video, I would like to just snip off the end of the .swf that I published and then probably just play a second .swf immediately after to end it (with replay buttons and a link to a particular website)
My question is: Is it possible for me to cut the .swf by about 3 seconds at the end?
I have a problem where I have a flash chat room and the first thing you do is log in with a name. This works. Next it goes to a loading screen that says thank you (name) and the proceeds to a title area where you choose to either chat, check for friends or change your name. Oh and of course exit. These are all working so far, but one prob. When you hit the send btn (button) it puts the text you typed in the text area with your name first. Example: (NAME): (TEXT) Problem is it needs a paragragh space first. And I dont know the script for that.
View 3 RepliesFor example, I've created in Flash CS a movie clip CampfireMC, which contains child movie clip:m_fire:FireMCFireMC is an animation of flameCampfireMC controls playback of m_fire, for example, last frame of CampfireMC uses action code:m_fire.gotoAndStop(m_fire.totalFrames)And the question is how to replace (not delete/add, as m_fire.gotoAndStop(m_fire.totalFrames)will not work in this case) FireMC to another animation FireMC2?I've tried the following trick, but it doesn't work
var campfire:CampfireMC = new CampfireMC();
campfire.m_fire = new FireMC2();
campfire.gotoAndPlay(0)

I want to end the sound of an externally loaded swf in a child movieclip, from within a movieclip (one level below root) when the user moves from that frame in that root level mc. Problem is that there are so many ways to exit that frame containing the (2 down from root) mc with its loader: nxt/prev frm, jump w/i that mc, or jump to another root level mc. Is there a frame script to get the effect of the old onExitFrame() that I can put in the top level mc or the mc with the loader that will know when the user has moved? (so I don't have to put stop code at every possible destination for every possible loaded swf?) I'm still new to AS3, so am limited to frame scripts. I don't even know where to put the public classes some possible answers talk about building.

I've been doing Motion in Flash just per Hand doing MotionTween etc. But now I wanted finally to do a motion of a object with Actionscript. I wanted to move a object from one side to the other and let the movement end with a little bounce. Just like in the Example here: [URL]. I have already something which moves the object with slowing down at the end of the movement (onclip even on a MC):
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
zielx=0
_x=300
rate=10
}onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x+=(zielx-_x)/rate
}
How I can let it end with a little bounce effect instead of the slowing down. Just like in the example.
I have a splash screen that I am playing a nice waterfall in the background. I inserted into frames 1 through 50. No scripting....The noise will not shut up at frame 50. Do I have to script what is the newbie answer to my issue. I don't want buttons to stop sound I just want it to end at frame 50..

I've created a player for a client in the past using their LimeLight server to stream videos and not had an issue before, however for a new client using different LimeLight server, the videos seem to be ending 3-4 secs too early.
My traces on 3 vastly different videos I tested:
metadata duration = 32 // 32 secs long, ends at 27
Stop [27.350 seconds] = 4.65
metadata duration = 17 // 17 secs long, ends at 12
Stop [12.852 seconds] = 4.148
metadata duration = 258 // 258 secs long, ends at 255
Stop [255.861 seconds]
In the video players I check for NetStream.Play.Stop then put a 'reset' type function in there. This function however triggers too early due to this strange bug. Has anyone have seen this before?
private function netStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void
{
trace("connected is: " + nc.connected );
[Code].....
The only work-around I see for this is saving the initial number I get from the metadata duration, and running a timer to constantly check for when the current ns.time matches metadata and then run my reset function.
I have drawn a series of lines using flash's graphics.lineTo command, and placed them in an array to be referenced later. Based on certain user interactions, the clips that hold these lines can be shifted to the right, causing the lines to move with them, no longer connecting to the point they originally connected to. So I need to extend the lines by the amount their parent clip was shifted (I've called this incVal). So what I need to do is find the point at which each of these lines ended at, and draw from that point to the left by incVal. How do I get that ending point of the line?
This is my code:
To draw line and add it both to the clip and to an array for future reference:
line.graphics.lineTo(localPoint.x,localPoint.y-10);
membersRef.addChild(line);
parallelArr.push(line);
