ActionScript 1/2 :: Not Visible At Start, Then Visible After Something Happens?
Sep 7, 2010
Okay, this should be relatively easy but I'm running into errors. My main character is visible in the beginning of the game (where the main menu is) and because I coded it so that all of the enemies don't spawn unless the main character is visible, the enemies spawn too. As a result, if you stay at the main menu for long enough, the score continues to go up, the health goes down when enemies attack, etc.

My question is: Set parentSprite.visible = false will make all children in parentSprite all invisible, right? And is there any way to just make parentSprite itself invisible without effecting it's children?

I want to click on an object and make it appear and disappear. As the object is rectangular, I figured putting a white button the same size on a white background on a layer underneath the object would do this, but I can't seem to make it happen.I'm a complete novice, frustrated as I've been trying to achieve this all day and I'm sure it should be pretty simple, but could you give me the idiots guide. I know how to name an instance, make an object, script in actions on a separate layer. I would like to draw the button myself and give it an instance rather than drag it off the button component (as I can't work out how to make the component button white, change its size etc.!)

Code:
my_Dyn_Txt1._visible = false
cb1.onRelease=function()[code]....
When the checkbox (cb1) is clicked the "my_Dyn_Txt1" is visible. The problem I'm having is - when I move forwad and back in my frames the checkboxes which were clicked are not visible due to
Code:
my_Dyn_Txt1._visible = false
How can I make ("my_Dyn_Txt1"), a clicked checkbox STAY VISIBLE even after I move forwad and back in my FLA frames?

I have made a video player based on the code from Lee's tutorial and I have modified it with help from code found in this forum. The video is paused from start and thats fine, but the bufferClip shows all the time (like forever) until i press the play button, I just want the bufferClip to be visible for as long the video is buffering.
Code: Select allns.setBufferTime(4);
var firstPlay:Boolean = true;
ns.onStatus = function(info){

I want to create a text box and a DateChooser as the datefield didn't do what I wanted and it's Halo so I can't skin it easily. I want the DateChooser to show when I click on the text input. Here is an except from my code:

I have a simple FLA that pans through an image up/down/left/right. There are several hotspots (transparent buttons) that popup simple captions when the user rolls over them and launches a URL when clicked.
The captions are actually one caption that I dynamically write text to, size, and _x, _y locate when the rollover event occurs.
The caption (cap) is a rectangle and text box MC symbol which is grouped with the graphic and buttons as another MC symbol. It all works great, panning, captions.
The problem is, when the mouse is first moved, the caption box appears over the graphic. I want it invisible until a rollover occurs. I have tried a setup function action in the first frame that performs cap._visible = false;, which did not solve it. That syntax works fine following the first rollout.
on (rollOver) {
cap.desc.text = "Mr Reynolds";
cap._width = 7*cap.desc.text.length;

I am working on a tabular file that when you click on one of the tabs (there is 7) you view the content of that layer.
The code I am using works fine:
on (release) {
land._visible = true;
Tab1._visible = false;
[Code]....
but when you view the "land" layer, go back to another tab and go back to the "land" layer it doesn't reload and start at frame 1 but the last frame you were at.
I desperately need it to "reload" when you release on the action above and to GoToAndPlay frame 1 but whatever code I try it won't do it.

I had a question if there is a way to set the stage as not visible? Meaning the .swf stage is transperent and takes the properties of the bg image of the bg of the page its laid on? I'm trying to steer away from just using flash for the site and using a mixture of flash elements in a css site but I can't seem to get the stage to be transparent.

I have six movie clips positioned across the stage and a following row of six movie clips below it. All of them move up the stage and are activated with a separate key press and it works ok first time. The following times going up the stage, the fifth and sixth movie clips are not visible on the first row, but are on the second row. The following code is what I am using for each clip - just repeated and named accordingly.
Code:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, leftbubbleMove);
function leftbubbleMove(e:Event):void {
if (leftbubble_mc.y > - 150) {
trace(leftbubble_mc.y);
leftbubble_mc.y -=2;
[Code] .....

I have my preloader which seems to be working correctly, however it only becomes visible as around 80%. So the page is blank up until then, then after that the loading bar is finishing and then goes to the rest of the site.

I have a dynamic text field. I have added a font object in the library, and selected that embedded font for my text field. I am using the font size I embedded. I also opened the Embed window & selected the characters I want.
When I do all of this, the text does not display in the text field. If I select DON'T embed from the embed window, then my text shows up, although, not in the right font.

I've been doing some simple text fades by keyframing the alpha values. Everything is fine on the stage, but when I publish it I can see a slightly translucent bounding box around the text. It's even visible on text I haven't animated. I've done fades before, but never ran into this problem. [URL]

This code is placed in several text boxes in my 10th frame and when I go to the 15th frame and come back to the 10th frame the selected checkboxes are not visible. how to keep my_Dyn_Txt1 visible unless it's unchecked. But at the start I need my_Dyn_Txt1 not to be visible as in the code. After the checkbox is selected I should be able to move to any frame (front and back) while my_Dyn_Txt1 is still visible unless it's unchecked by the user.
Code:
my_Dyn_Txt1._visible = false
cb1.onRelease=function()
{ if(this._currentframe==1)

I have a SWF with a few buttons. The text on the buttons does not show up, as if the alpha is set to zero. This only seems to happen with certain versions of IE in combination with certain versions of Windows.This is a SWF that someone else created. It is placed on the page with Javascript. I do not have the option of recreating this at this point.

I created a UIScrollBar and linked it to a dynamic textfield. It works OK, but if I publish it and view it in the generated HTML file
(with flash player 9) it is not visible. If I view it in the standalone flash player it is fine.

I created a button in one movie. I nested a second movie that is the same size as the first movie. In the second movie I can successfully hide an object in the first movie with an object in the second movie. However, I can't prevent a button in the first movie from being shown in the second movie.

I'm using Flash Cs4 with As3 to make a project. In part of it I have an object which is invisible, but when a button is pressed is made visible. Only problem is, it won't make it visible.
Heres my code
PHP Code:
import flash.events.Event;import flash.events.MouseEvent;aSettings.visible = falsevar setVisible:Boolean = false;buttonVisibility.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,function():void
[Code]....
I'm not receiving any errors at all, but whenever I click the button the output says "false", so I know that its not changing it to true.
