ActionScript 1/2 :: _root.stop() In The Flash Player - Stopped The Main Timeline But Not The Other Ones
Jul 12, 2010
Have a question about the _root.stop(). I have a pause and play feature in a flash player so the user can stop the presentation along with all the voiceover that streams with the presentation. I used the _root.stop() in the flash player hoping it will stop the main timeline, but also other embedded movieclip timelines. It stopped the main timeline, but not the other ones. How do I stop both timelines at the same time? the _root.stop() was not working for me.

I have a video player on my site that once paused I would like to prevent rest of the video being downloaded. I am using MediaElement.js for html5 video with flash fallback. It is annoying that I am unable to stop the video from downloading as it is a waste of bandwidth and the "progress" event continues to fire and update the UI.

Is there a way to dynamically tell if the main timeline's (or a MovieClip's) playhead is moving or has stopped? I know I can manually set a boolean variable and then toggle it between true and false:

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 currently in the middle of making a "sniping" flash game. In the first level there are a series of moving targets which are also movie clips. Inside the movie clip there is a 7 frame animation of the target exploding. Inside that is a tween of the target moving up and down. And inside that there is a plain old button.
What I want to happen is when you click on the moving target it explodes and brings you to a new frame of the main timeline. (ex. Main Timeline frame #27) But I'm pretty sure it thinks I was to play the seven frame animation of it exploding and then go to frame 27 inside the movie clip, rather then frame 27 on the main timeline.
Here's what my AS looks like on the target (ActionScript 2.0 is what I'm using.)
on (press) {
play();
}
on (release){
gotoAndStop(27)}
So how do I make it explode and then take me to frame 27 on the main timeline?

I have a contact form for which I have a tween. That contact form consists of two keyframes, first the form, I tried putting the code stop(); in the first keyframe but it didn't stop. I then changed stop(); to _root.stop();, which didn't work either. I have to stop it because otherwise users would see a thank you note before they even enter their details. What can I do? Converting to movieclip didn't work either, besides it puts a funny character when I press AltGr

Has anybody had Flash player debuuger suddenly stop working for no reason whatsoever. What I've found so far: - No exception screens popping up.. in ANY browser. Reinstalled debugger version of flash player, no go. - Flashbug not showing in Firebug - No trace calls visible in FlashDevelop - Flash IDE behaves normal.. all trace calls visible - Firefox updated about the same time but problem seems to be on a wider scale This started approximately, on Sunday 8th Januray (or saturday).

I am working on a flash website that loads live inventory data from a public csv file publish by google docs. the csv file is located at a public address on google docs server:[URL].. I am using a URLloader and URLrequest within my flash movie to grab this data and assign it to different variables.
It works great when I preview the movie in flash. However, when I go to publish the movie and preview the html file its loaded into in dreamweaver, I get a security warning from adobe flash player: Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation
I went ahead and published the html file that contains the swf file to the web, and when I go to my site, I don't even get the flash player warning; it just sits there like its trying to load the URLrequest and never completes.
I understand that flash player has a security measures that prevents flash files from accessing files outside of the server directory that the swf file is published to. I know you can create policy xml files to tell flash it's okay to load the data, but those policy files have to be located on the public server from which the data is being grabbed. But it's not like I can waltz on to google's servers a stick a policy file in there!
Is there any way to tell the flash player it's okay to load this data without getting that security error? I can't have the end user having to go into their flash settings and adding the location manually. I just need it to work without the security warning.
Is there another method of loading data from an external server without tripping up flash player security? aka, something other than URLloader and URLrequest?

how to best handle the issue of not having enough permission inside of a Google Chrome Extension. I am interacting with the YouTube API, but I am not using swfobject.js, just using am embdeeded div. I do not believe this is introducing my security issue, but perhaps it is. In development, I had to navigate to Adobe's flash player security page and designate my development folder as a 'safe' location. In deployment, I do not have the ability to do this. I do not want my users to have to click 'Allow All' on flash player security, but I do not see another way to achieve my results.Seems to be a duplicate of SWFobject in a Chrome Extension - API Unavaiable but remains unanswered.Source: https:[url].....
To run: Pull from the repo, load up Chrome, click the wrench, go to extension, check 'Developer Tools' -> Load Unpacked Extension and browse to the folder.

I searched the forum and perhaps found some relevant solutions, yet I still don't get it. How do I make simple "stop()", "play()", and check "currentFrame" on the main timeline from an AS3 Class file? I have an older AS2 Flash timeline animation that I'm converting to AS3, and also importing an AS3 swf into. Everything works fine, except I had to remove the "stop()" on the main timeline (so the animation does not loop), and trying to do that from the document main .as file. I get an error when trying to access "currentFrame" of the stage.

I have created an advent calendar for the blog of a friend, and to fetch/get/download the gifts of each day, the flash animation requests a file located at [URL].While creating the file in Flash CS4 and trying it out, I never got the error. But when I try to launch the .swf manually, I get this error: Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following local application on your computer or network:
C:locationfile.swf
is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location:
[URL]
To let this aplication communicate with the Internet, click Settings. You must restart the application after changing your settings.Is there any way to bypass this, or any other method I can use to stop this error from showing?

Im trying to get the X, Y of a Movie clip (well call it "target_mc").its inside of a parent MC (well call it...."parent_mc")but im trying to get the X,Y as they relate to the main stage(_root).so far the two methods ive used are
Code:
this._x = _root["parent_mc"]._x + _root["parent_mc"]["target_mc"]._x
this._y = _root["parent_mc"]._y + _root["parent_mc"]["target_mc"]._y[code]....
neither worked
it seemed like the first method(the one in the code block) places it at the starting position of the MC i need the location of, but to further complicate it the parent_mc is a rotating clip(Ive got code to make it follow the mouse).how i can place this in a location that is changing whenever the mouse moves

Im using a for in loop to grab the names of my mc on the _root timeline and push() them into an array named bricks. i then use a prototype function fade them in one at a time. The problem is that it only works to a piont and then stops.
I thought posible causes could be the time it takes to build the array as i do have 713 mc on my timeline.
this is my code i tried attaching the fla but its to big
fadespeed = 9;
function init(){
brick = new Array();

I'm taking a class on Flash right now but its set up in this strange manner where they barely teach you actionscript at all but expect you to be able to take the examples in class and work and amend them into your projects. I am trying to write a function for a button that will gotoAndPlay one frame beyond where the timeline presently is stopped at.

I have a movie with 3 scenes, the last one has only just one statement on the timeline:_root.stop(), and there are not library objects neither ones created by code. Just and empty stage with the statement I told.I know I am not an expert in Flash yet, the entire design of code in timeline and movieclips are not very clear and tidy.When the movie reaches the scene three, it stays one or two seconds (not the same amount of time in each playing) and replay from scene one and the things become chaotics from there. I revisited one and two times the code and objects from movie explorer tool and can't figure out what demon makes re-start the movie when it must stop in the last scene

I'm using this complex rollover button on my site i found here --> [URL] What i'm looking to do is have this effect trigered when a second button is rolled over as well. Is there a way to target this movie clip effect from the _root timeline? I was able to achieve this halfway by using labels but I am not able to reverse the animation on roll out with this method.

I have two movieclips on the stage mc1 and mc2,the navigation for mc2 and mc1 is in mc1 as as3 and MovieClips suddenly now that I've added some tabs into mc2 (new layer, no instance names yet) the navigation code in mc1 has stopped working,if I change the initial stop command to a later frame in mc1 I can navigate back to the first frame and then to one other place in the menu but after moving away from the first frame I can't seem to get any of the buttons to work, its only if the stop command is on a later page that those buttons will workon the main timeline i'm using;
ActionScript Code:
stop();
mc1.stop();
