ActionScript 1/2 :: Simple Goto Next And Previous Frame Not Working?
Oct 16, 2011
This seems pretty basic but for some reason I absolutely can't get it to work. I have a set of buttons which I want to be able to send their parent movie to the next or previous frame. I want to use a NEXT and PREVIOUS button, both combined within a single movieclip, to tell a parent file to go to next and previous frame.
Just finally making the transition from AS2 to AS3.All i need to do at this point is make two buttons which will control the movie to goto next frame and previous frame. I have gotten how to make the buttons go to a specified frame number and also a button to go to a specified external url but no success in making a simple next/previous pair of buttons.
I understand how to create simple buttons as reuseable classes, but how could you create a next button that does something similar to the AS2 "goto and stop nextframe", and a back button that does something similar to the AS2 "go to and stop previous frame".On each frame that the user navigates to, is a movie clip, within that movie clip is then another button with a go to and play "Frame Label" action required, that navigates within the movieclip to a specific frame.
I have a function with some if and else...if statements in a particular frame. In this assessment program, the user goes to other frames, then evaluates several variables at the end. If the user gets more than 3 wrong, the user goes back to the scenarios that were missed (i.e., a particular frame label). When I have tested this program, I can get back to the right frame/scenario, but a particular button's function won't work. Is there something where I need to "reset" this function the second time the user goes through it because it remembers what was done the first time?
i can not seem to get a button working with simple gotoAndStop frame . its setup like _root > EMC_photos > photos_thumbs_ani now in photos_thumbs_ani i have several photo pages all setup every 100 frames with labels page 1, page 2 etc my button is within photos_thumb_ani as a movieclip with code inside this.onRelease = function(){ _root.EMC_photos.photos_thumb_ani.gotoAndStop("pag e2");} I have tried different variations to no sucess
I found a script with a preloader for images which references the jpg names usingin an array which works great for what I wanted to do, but I would like to set up a button that allows the previous name on the list to be loaded and shown. Sorry Im a noob so Im trying to understand all this code. I tried making the +1's negative but that didn't seem to work.
I have various movies clip within a movie and my back (mc = arr2_mc) and next (mc = arr1_mc) buttons are on the main scene.This is on my main scene on a first frame
when it goes back, it goes back frame by frame without stopping but I want it to go only to previous Scene. instead of going to previous frame.Do i have to create a unique button? which i did but i didn't work?
i created a two layer in time line in one layer there is a movieclip called mc1. In the same layer in 15th frame i have another movie clip mc2. Inside the movieclip mc2 i created another movie clip at frame10 now if i clik the the mc1 on first frame The movie clip should goto and stop at tenth frame
at first, I thought I could manage this myself searching the forums about "preloader" but none of the solutions seem to work. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm using the FLVPlayer with an external file. What am I looking for?
1. Well, the preload code for frame 1 that makes sure the external F4V (movie.f4v in the same dir) is loaded 100% before it jumps to frame 2 where the movie should start playing...
I am trying to make a back button using the gotoAndPlay function but whenever I go back to the page I wanted to, the actionscript buttons don't work.[code]...
I have a scolling menu, that works wraps around and everything, all nice and pretty.When I place a get url on the button state the url opens,When I place a goto on the button state nothing happens, the supposed scene is a no show.(I have also tried this on the mouse down in the MC state with the same results)I started the scrolling images as buttons then f8'd again and converted to MC's...the MC's have a zoom funtion on them, btu i removed it to see if that was a possible cause to no avail.
I have a scene where my movieclip loops between frame 1 and 2.In frame 3 there is a gotoAndPlay (1);.Is there a code that I can put in frame 1 where it tells to jump to frame 4 every 7:th second?
I have been using powerpoint all long for my presentations, but I'd like to move on with Flash. My question is therefore as follows: How do I use the arrow keys to go to the next frame and optionally, the left key to go to the previous frame?
Using CS5 and Code Snippets, how do I tell the Timeline that when it gets to a specific frame to go to another one? I want it to go back and play the first frame to create a looping effect.
I've got 3 buttons on a background and would like each to perform this:Rolllover=goto another frame to see graphic and stopRollout= go back to frame 1 and stopClick=goto URL
I'm making a game in which you have to pick up a key first with your character and then go to the door. When you hit the door, you should go to the next frame. Without the key, you can't pass the door. You should pick up the key with hitTestObject and go to the next frame with hitTestObject too.Here is my code:
So I have a custom flv player addapted from lee brimelows video basic tutesI want it to goto and stop on frame 2 in the main timeline when the flv has completed.Not got it cracked, so here is my code so far and the fla is attached.[code]
does anybody know the script for when i want a movieclip to goto and play a Random frame(not like: anyframe beetween 1 and 8, I mean: goto any of these Frames; 1, 4, 6, 9 ect...)
I've got a movie clip on the stage with lots of frames in the movie clip. When I click a button (also on the main stage) with the instance name 'next_btn', I want it to randomise the movie clip to a random frame. This is ActionScript 2.0 by the way! the project is due in a couple of days.
I want to some how be able to play through time line after a button is clicked and then goto a specific location. Though this location does not stay the same each time.I'm creating a gallery which will have 3 sections and want thumbnails to fade in, then when you click another sections they (play) a fadeout and then goto a specified location (after a button click).If the purpose is not clear, comment and I will try and clarify.
