View 7 RepliesI want to make a button that makes you got to a random frame within a certain range (eg frame 41-50) when you press it. I have tried various codes but so far no luck. Im using AS 2
and the button is within a couple of movie clips, but you can still click it when you test
How do you press a key (like "L") and go to the next frame?
Which event must I pick?
I assume it's something like: stage.addEventListener(Keyboard., but after that I don't know what to do.
This is for AS 3.0 by the way.
How can i do that when you press on a button you will go to another frame of the layer?I am using Macrome6dia Flash Professional 8!
View 1 RepliesI have some buttons on the frame. I also have an event listener that is waiting for the user to press the Tab key to advance to the next frame. Is there any way, using ActionScript 3, to have the Flash player not recognize the buttons, because when I'm testing it, using the Tab key, it goes through the progression moving from one button to another, and then finally it advances to the next frame where I want it to go directly to the next frame and bypass the buttons. The simplest way is not to have the buttons, but I need them.

View 3 RepliesI have a question, I am in the process of creating a flash presentation that I have to intergrate a keyPress left and right, but also have a nav system that if you click on the title it will take you to that frame and play it. Here is how I have this layed out... I have set up the main nav as Nav_mc. It contains 20 different titles that have to when pressed gotoAndPlay an animation in the presentation e.i.(areil view, view from 400 etc...)
So, my question is two fold... adding the function to the mc is not a big deal no problem, but I usually use labels when I do this and if I am using a keyPress function Left and Right to go to the the next animation and play it, I am having a little trouble grasping how to set up the key press so that if you pressed it left it would go to the next fram label and play that and vis-versa. so if I do this...

Using Actionscript 3 Have a button called "breckenridge". I also have a scene called "breckenridge". On a keyframe is the following code.

When I test the movie and I press the "breckenridge" button it takes me to the "breckenridge" scene and stops on the the first frame. Then I get the following error message
[Code]..
my main timeline, what I am assuming is my first scene called "aspen", stops at frame 300. What gives? Okay, I know everyone hates scenes because it causes navigation problems. However I have this .fla split into sections and I intend to add more stuff to each section in the future. The easiest way I can think to organize these sections with out having a hodge podge of added stuff jumbled on one time line is to break it into scenes.
I have my flash on multiple scenes, and would like to play an animation when clicking on the navigation button before switching to a different scene.
I'm halfway to accomplishing this.
Here is what i used
Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("changepage1");
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(this._currentframe=="changepage2"){
[Code]....
The above code is on a blank keyframe. Changepage1 is the start of the animation and Changepage2 is the end of the animation.
Upon clicking the navigation button it plays the above scenes.
However it doesn't change scenes to scene "Home2".
What command do I enter for the movie to rewind to first frame on entering a certain frame / stopping in a frame?It's my first time using Flash, and I'm working on a double menu (second menu has a "close" button, where I want to get back to the first menu).
View 5 Repliesi have a movieclip on stage. it has 3 frames but is stopped with "stop():" so it only shows the first frame on mousedown i want it to play frame 2 for a duration of 1 frame then frame 3.
View 3 RepliesI hope I can ask this correctly. I'll paraphrase.
press_mc.onRelease = function(){
mover2_mc.play()};
This is a snippet of some code I'm working on. Currently I have a mc that you press that plays another mc. That mc that reacts has 5 frames, each frame with stop(); on each frame. I do a normal play code because it lets me play through and cycle back to frame 1 after frame 5 (so if I click the mc it eventually cycles back to the first frame and starts the process over again). If I do a nextframe it stops at frame 5, so that's why I use play.
press_mc click on it and it tells mover2_mc to advance a frame and recycles back to frame one to redo the process.Can I tell press_mc to play and skip a frame or to have it play a list of frames that I tell? I can't do a _currentframe +2 because it'll halt at frame 5.
