ActionScript 1/2 :: Timeout / Stop(); Not Functioning Properly On Timeline?
Feb 3, 2012
I have some sections that look for a (delayedAction) button press of >1 second or else it goes to a warning keyframe on the timeline. Once at the warning frame it stays for a couple seconds (slideIntervalNum) and then continues playing to the next frame which contains a variable telling it return to the initial frame it was at.IF the user taps the button for <1 while at the warning frame they back up another section in the timeline. This is all what i planned for but.
button for less than 1 sec and quickly moves back towards the beginning of the animation / timeline at some point something happens that makes it so that it does not want to obey the stop(); command at all! It will keep playing forwards frame by frame when no action is taken. And even if a button press of >1 sec is executed to stop and go to the next frame it still wont obey the stop(); command!!!some of my code that i am using:
//AT STARTUP:
stop();
var timeOut:Number;
[code].....

My XML isn't exactly doing what I want. It's putting a lot of 'undefined' entries in my Flash file and it's not updating correctly and I don't know why it's doing that.Top square is add entry to XML, button square returns to the 'room'.
This is my Script:
ActionScript Code:
package
{
//Import Stuff
public class AddQuestionMenu extends MovieClip

I have it up but the buttons that activate the motion tweens aren't functioning. Also it seems that some images are not being loaded.

I published the FLV file and it made the HTML and JS files.

I have 2 (vector roundtangle) movieclips on the stage both with scale9 enabled. When I tween them, scale9 only applies to one clip and not the other. I'm using mcTween but this shouldn't make a difference.

I have the following code:

The bold entries are where the Tween class is declared and I expect it to behave smoothly but it is lagging in its response to the mouseOver event and mouseOut event.
Can anyone test this out on their system and see if they are having problems as I am? Basically as the mouse hovers over an active target the scale of the active target in X is supposed to change from 1 to 1.2 times the original scale in X and vice versa when the mouse goes out of the active target.

I have a button that is housed inside a movieClip. That movieClip has the following AS3 code:
[Code]...
So I'm just curious if this is a known glitch in AS3 or CS4. Or if this method of using SoundChannel within a movieClip is no-no and why.

im currently working on building a search app which allows filtering of a list of products.
NOTE: shift+leftClick to drag and reorder the lists, just left click to use scrollbars and buttons.
[URL]
here is a preview of the stage as it is at the moment.
when the scroll pane is created (dynamically) i also create a new instance of my own class which is as follows . . . (the content for the scrollpane)
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
[Code].....
holding shift and clicking allows you to drag the scroll panes into a different order. clicking one button in each of the scroll panes works fine. if you try clicking a second button in either of the scroll panes you will notice you have to click twice.

I created a basic slideshow with a Next and Previous button. I attach this code in the first frame of the main timeline:
Code:
stop();
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, moveNext, false, 0, true);
function moveNext(e:MouseEvent):void {nextFrame();}
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movePrev, false, 0, true);
function movePrev(e:MouseEvent):void {prevFrame();}
It works fine, until I get to the last frame of the timeline (10th frame in this case). Then both buttons cease functioning. Why? The listeners should still be working.

I just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.

I am having trouble with editing my flash template in flash cs4. When I try to play the fla file in the timeline it does not play everything in each layer. I have made no changes to the exisiting files in the template at all but there is only a partial background and some text playing.I have tried two other fla files from templates and they are the same.

The stop() is not working properly as if it were being ignored. I have even recreated a dummy flash document the stop() did work, however, it is still not working on the original design.

my reverse button causes the timeline to ignore the stop() function on its keyframe and play backwards all the way to the start. Since it keeps trying to play the previous frame, it's frozen at frame 1.
Code:
stop()
// Reverse button //
var reverse:Boolean;
rev_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, down );

I made a few functions that should fade between tracks very simply. I start with track1, then call my initial function to fade to track2 -- works just fine. Then later when I want to call it to fade back to track1 it will fade track1 in but keep track2 playing (when the first time it properly fades the already playing track out) --Here is the code (all variables are defined earlier):
ActionScript Code:
/* trans is my SoundTransform
channel is my SoundChannel
newSong is a holding var*/

I am new to actionscript. I was trying to make a slide show frame by frame. I have my main timeline with the following code in first frame.
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fl_changeSlide);
function fl_changeSlide(evt:KeyboardEvent):void{
if (evt.keyCode = 37) // LEFT{
gotoAndStop(this.currentFrame-1);
}else if (evt.keyCode == 39 || evt.keyCode == 32){
gotoAndStop(this.currentFrame+1);
}}
In the third frame I am trying to load an external swf by clicking a button 'rrbutton' and unload the same when the user clicks left arrow.
var loadit = new Loader();
function ack(evt.keyboardEvent):void {
if(evt.keyCode == 37){
loadit.unloadAndStop();
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fl_changeSlide);
[Code] .....
The external swf loads on clicking the button and unloads when left arrow is pressed and the main time line frame appears. But thereafter the keyboard navigation in the main timeline(through function fl_changeSlide) is not working properly.

I've just posted a reply in the ActionScript3 Forum as someone else has had the same problem, but I can't find a solution so posting again here as it's taken me about 5 hours of getting nowhere and I'm sure this is really easy... have one frame on my time line called "theatre" and another called "Video" the buttons between the two work but the video continues to play in the background when I go back to the "theatre" frame on the same time line and I can't find a stop function that will work A button on my main page links to Video on the timeline with following AS3
btnVid.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickbtnVid);
function clickbtnVid(event:Event) :void {
gotoAndStop("Video");

I'm making at quite big company presentation with slides (CS4). On some of the slides I'm using buttons with behaviors on the timeline - they are a all placed in the first frame of the related slide. I have a placed a stop(); in the first frame in every slide so I'm sure the timeline will not start playing. The problem is that it does. I runs one time and then it stops.
How can I make it stop the first time you go to the slide?

Basically im trying to stop sound playing from a timeline. My little swf plays and has music playing from a separate layer. and when i mouse down on it i have action script 3 that jumps to a dif frame and starts playing a new anim and sound layer. but the previous sound layer keeps playing to the end. Is there anyway to stop the sound layer playing at the same time that i jump to a new frame?

have been learning Flash pro CS5. I understand how to stop the loop of a total timeline. However, I am having problems with the following. I have created a motion tween of text that fades in and out, and stars around the words that "twinkle". I wish to stop the looping of the txt but have the stars continue to loop (and twinkle)

I have one MC of 80 frames. I have put stop() in the last frame which stops the MC.I'm changing my programming practice by not writing code in timeline. I have created a linkage for that MC. How do I stop that MC in 80th frame form the linkage class. Should I put a conditional statement (this.currentFrame==80) in aEvent.EnterFrame or is there a better way ?

I'm making a mini-game, so ive got various scenes and stuff going on. I found this rain effect [url]... and it works fine and looks pretty good, the problem is I don't know how to get the damn thing to stop! I'm a beginner so know very little actionscript and can't figure this out myself. I do not want the timeline to stop playing only for the rain to stop.
