ActionScript 1/2 :: Animated Button - Set The Animations In Movie Clips And They Won't Stop
Apr 21, 2010
i tried following a tutorial to create an animated button. it's not functioning i originally had the animation in frames and it worked somewhat. if you test the links_1.swf, it functions as i had hoped but if you activate the button quickly, the timing gets messed up and the animation sticks. file:///Users/GS2/Desktop/links_1.fla then i tried to set the animations in movie clips and they won't stop. file:///Users/GS2/Desktop/links_2.fla i tried including the fla files for reference.

I have two arrows that control an animated movie clip that has words scrolling vertically. When you click on one arrow it plays the movieclip forward, and when you click on the other arrow it plays the movieclip backward. I want you to have to keep clicking on the forward arrow to have it continue animating through the different words. I've place stop actions at the points I want the movieclip to stop animating but when you click the forward or backword button it never stops and just plays through the whole thing. [URL]

I've hacked together this prototype "bouncing ball" from a few tutorials online.When the user clicks a color choice, the bouncing ball changes to the color picked. The ball does in fact change to the color, however, the animation ends.Is it possible to dynamically change the color and maintain the animation? 'm using AS3 and here is my script and no errors are thrown, so its doing what its suppose to.
ActionScript Code:
//call function changeColor on button click
//this function uses the AS color class called colorTansform

I am currently using an onEnterFrame to animate a filter which is being applied to several different animated movie clips. This filter is triggered by an onRollover, which also pauses the main movie clip (that doesn't have a filter applied to it).
The problem is, the main movie clip in the background pauses but the layer that has the filter attached (and holds the movie clips that need to be affected by this filter) isn't pausing.
So, it's going:
onRollover
Pause movie (which has an embedded flv)
OnEnterFrame filter animation
I want it to pause all the movies on the current fram and then apply the animated filter.
I've tried adding a goToAndStop but this doesn't seem to work.

I've developed a touch screen flash application for a sneakers (shoe) shop. It has a 'find a shoe' section, which isn't causing problems, and an 'about' section, which is.The about section is a heavily animated history of sneaker culture. It's animated via the timeline, not via AS3. The problem is that with prolonged use of the about section, idle CPU usage grows, and memory usage grows, eventually making the app unusably slow.
I've made a 'minified' app that does nothing other than create/delete 50 instances of my 'about' movie clip - it doesn't even add those instances to the stage. I've cut basically all code out of the 'about' class, which is shown below:

I have three buttons, btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, and two movie clips, image_1,image_2. The names listed btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, image_1,image_2. are all instance names. All buttons and movie clips are on their own layer in a single frame on the main time line. the movie clips have a stop action on the first and last frame, with a frame label, on the first frame in the sub time line. For image_1 the frame label is image_1_1 and for image_2 the frame label is image_2_1.
I would like btn_1 and btn_2 to control the movie clips, image_1,image_2. Either button should be able to close the other buttons movie clip and play it's own movie clip. Also i am trying to make the movie clips themselves have the ability to be closed by clicking on the movie clip image area that is playing. Both movie clips when not playing hide behind the appropriate button with an alfa of 0.
When playing they expand to the middle of the window and are at 100% alfa, using a tween. The third button, btn_3 should only be visible when one or the other movie clisp are playing. btn_3 dose nothing else but this for now. As of now, my movies continuously loop and btn_3 is always visible. I can't seem to figure this out. my code for this action is:

I'm creating an animated background/flash animation, in short I have several tweened pieces all moving/swinging around and I want them all to loop at the end of their individual loops. Each piece is on its own layer) I have been using gotoAndPlay(2); (I'm using a preloader so frame 2 is the start). The problem is (If I'm correct here) is the first layer to reach the end runs the "go to and play" resetting everything!. I want each layer to act independantly. Is there a different version of gotoAndPlay(2); that will work or am I looking at things like nested animations/importing individual fla's ect (all of which goes over my head).

I am using AS2 in CS5.5.I am creating a project for a class that introduced me to adobe flash. The issue is I have gotten to a certain point about 15 scenes. During say the 15th scene scrolling through the timeline animations works fine, playing it on test scene works fine. When I go to play it on test movie it stops at a certain point. At first I thought it might have been a misplaced stop action but there is none to be found. The weird part is every other scene I create after that continues to freeze as well, the images are there, but the animations won't play. All my previous animations play before those with the issue, it's justThese new ones won't play for some reason in test movie, but work completely fine in test scene and the timeline.

When my animations are playing in the flashplayer and you rightclick and uncheck the play command only the animations in the main timeline stop playing. All the child animations continue to play. How do I make it so they all will stop playing when play is unchecked?
Is there a event listener that monitors if the movie has been stopped?

I'm trying to create an animated movie clip button in AS2 using CS5. The button should fade in/out as the mouse moves over and away from the button.Lets say my frame rate is 30 FPS. When I insert a motion tween on frame 1, the timeline is automatically extended by 30 frames. I then select frame 30, select the button and change the alpha value to 30%. When I drag the head marker back and forth, the button fades in and out smoothly exactly as I wanted.But I want to create a motion tween between frame 1 and 10. So I select frame 10, insert a keyframe, select frame 5 and insert a motion tween. Then I select frame 10, select the button and change the alpha value to 30% like before. When I drag the head marker, there is no fade in/out. When the head marker is exactly over frame 10, the button is faded, but when it is on any frame between 1 and 9, it is normal.

It just stops there and loops the first movie clip. I can't seem to attach the flv and the action script files here in the forum... But you can download the fla file here:[URL]

I have a barometer activity flash program. It's weather themed and at each stage of the barometer fill, a movie clip appears that has as-generated weather icons (i.e. rain, clouds) floating across the screen. The problem is once I click to the next level of the barometer, the weather icons keep flashing in the upper left corner. I tried putting clearInterval in various places but it didn't seem to do anything.

I have created a website on the time line. There is actionscipt contolling which frame to play via a button. Within this button is a movieclip with a fade in using alpha on its own timeline with a stop(); at the end.The problem is I only want it to play when you first see it from moving to that page from the main timeline. Currently if i move over the button it plays the movie again which i dont want to happen. I do however want to retain the over states etc for the button.

I have a fire animation that i want to freeze (ha!) on the last frame of my swf. So basically the fire is buring and i want all the tweened flames inside duplicated MC to stop so it looks like a snapshot of whereever all the flames currrently are.Everything else in the movie is stopped too, so i was wondering if there was a global stop all motion command or the best way to freeze my fire

Anyway, I am just trying to figure out movie clips as buttons, and have been following along on however, I seem to be doing these things right, but when i test my movie, the button just loops regardless of rollovers or stop actions.You can check this addressto see the failed anim, and you should be able to import it as well. Here is my coding:
function rollover (e:EVENT){ myBtn.gotoAndPlay ("in");}
myBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, rollover);
function rollout (e:EVENT){ myBtn.gotoAndPlay ("out");}

I've a MovieClip symbol with 5 frames (let's call it the main MovieClip), each frame holds a different MovieClip symbol and each of those symbols has a small motion in them. If let's say I move to the 3rd frame in the main MovieClip: object.gotoAndStop(3);Then symbol's small motion animation, which frame 3 holds, automatically starts as I saw. So I'm thinking here do the other frames (1, 2, 4 and 5), which are not visible on stage though, are stopped and I don't need to worry about stopping each of them myself (like attaching code to each 1st frame to call .stop()) ?Because if I would now call right away object.gotoAndStop(1); it would start that frame's animation right away.
