I made this Flash banner few months ago for this website [URL] When I play the banner on my computer everything is fine but when is on the web you can see the saccade (the image is jumping it is not smooth)
View 2 RepliesAnyway what I need is a banner (or galleri) which pulls in external images. But i want it to be able to automatically get new images which I put in the folder.Also i want to be able to position this, since im going to make a banner/menu combo ( I can post an image of the concept if actually i have a link to the site where im want to use itI want to position the the banner in between the graphic to the left and right and I also want to position the menu on top of the banner.I've read some tutorials where you use a placeholder which i guess is what i'm supposed to do here.
View 1 RepliesI have to produce a Flash banner advert for my company. The specs are Flash 8, up to 30kb.My company wants highest possible resolutions and smooth animations, but no matter what i do, either I have to lower the resolutions of my images or have to make the advert more static, none of which my company is happy about!I save images to the right size so i don't scale them in FlashI open each of the bitmaps and change their quality individuallyI clicked the compress movie buttonI optimised all the shapes that are in the filmI made sure all the objects used more than once or animated are movieclipsI used SWF optimiser but it didn't make any difference.
View 4 RepliesI have a fla file template and the example sequence swf but the template only show a few of the images in the finshed preview even though all the images are present 12 bitmaps and 12 symbols.see why the images are not moving in the Banner .
View 1 RepliesWhat's the quickest way to add/replace an image in a rotating banner using CS5.5?
View 14 RepliesI built a quick and dirty site header banner, with text masking a scrolling background of several images. The text is the mask, so the images show up inside the text. Viewing it works in Flash CS3, but when I publish it, I see the images scrolling from right to left, but they are not masked.

View 2 RepliesI am building a banner ad and I am using Flash CS4. I need it so when someone clicks the banner it takes them to the page in a new window. Its just a a simple URL and I keep getting syntax errors now and I dont know how to do this properly. I have tried these methods.

I'm adapting this iTunes coverflow style gallery for my own purpose [URL] Basically, the locations of the artwork and the URLs for when you click on a picture are stored in an XML file. Is it possible to adapt the AS or XML so that instead of opening a URL, clicking on a cover jumps to a particular frame on the timeline? Basically what I want to do is have the first and last items acting as previous and next buttons to go to a different frame on the timeline. I guess what i need to do is get the actionscript to do whatever is within and replacing that with the action I want it to perform?
View 2 RepliesI have this rather cool code for a _mc on a slope. The only problem I am having is making the sprite.mc change states/animation when the sprite.mc is jumping.here's the code I have:
onClipEvent(load){
speed = 5;
gravity = 0;
r = _height/2; //radius

I have a piece of code in AS3 but it doesn't work with AS2:
stop();
function login(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.gotoAndPlay("first_page");
[Code]....
But I still have a problem. I have stops in each key frame but when I play the movie it shows directly the first_page section skipping all other frames before it.
I have made 2 scenes. I am trying to jump 1scene to next scene you can find source file from here
scene1 is LoderScreen
scene2 is GameScreen and frame label is "start"
I did this gotoAndPlay("start","GameScreen")
But it is showing error/

I am wanting to fade out of a frame and then fade into another, and the way i was thinking of doing this was to code a tween to alpha 0 and then use the code:
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startMovieHome);
function startMovieHome(e:MouseEvent):void
{
[Code]....
I dont know how to ask it to tween and then go to the label "home" once the tween is complete..
Okay so im making a game for a class...im using flash player 8....i need an actionscript code for looping a background that i have. i need an actionscript for having my character jump..
View 1 Repliesok so i know you can use gotoAndPlay to jump to a different frame but how do you jump to a curtain line of code in that frame
View 7 RepliesWhat I created was just a test but I can't seem to get it working. What I did was create a very small rectangle at frame 1. Created a tween and then at frame 100 made it a very large rectangle.
Then in my code I wanted the user to MOUSE_OVER something and the rectangle to ease to the length it was at frame 30. However I keep getting this error message:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label frame 30 not found in scene Scene 1.
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/test()
Here is my code:
[CODE]
stop();
circle_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, test, false, 0, true);
circle_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, test2, false, 0, true);

View 14 Replieshow to jump to a scene that is identified by a variable?
I've tried:
New_Scene = "Scene 3"
gotoAndPlay ([New_Scene],1);
and all iterations thereof... No luck.
I have a maths-based movie on which a number of points are allocated depending on the answers given to a series of multiple choice questions.
At the end of it, a person will score somewhere between 1 and 10 points depending on the answers they gave.
I have got to the stage where the system keeps track of the cumulative score, and at the conclusion, I have a text field on stage, which has an instance name of "results". When the person enters the frame, the results field displays the total number of points scored.
That is ok, but what I actually would like to happen is that the movie jumps to a different frame based on that figure, so that if they score 2, it would take them to the frame labelled "two" and if they score 9, it takes them to frame "nine"
Is there a way of effectively saying:
On frame enter
if results.text = 1 go to "one";
if results.text = 2 go to "two"
etc etc
I'm guessing that I need to use the:
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
};
how to describe the bit in the middle...?
I'm having trouble getting my character to fire. it seems to fire when he jumps, but not while standing. I have attached my code to the zip file below:This is the code I used:

i'm making a photo gallery in flash AS3. I have two buttons, prev and next, what i want is when you are at the last image end press next, you jump to the first image. I have tried to google it and searched for an answer, but cant find anything. This is my code so far.
picture.stop();
rbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
clicknext);
lbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
clickprev);

In an alphabetically sorted array, I want to jump from one letter to another. So, when Im with a word beginning with a, I want to jump to the next item beginning with etc
Ive set up this simple script, which simply look at the first character of the current item, then loop in the (sorted) array until it finds a different first character It works very well hen descending! But when ascending, the script sees that there is character change but this is not the first item beginning with that letterbut the last one (since we are coming from bottom to top)
And of course I would like the script to give me the very first item beginning with a new letter.
(So, to summarize, I want to browse an array alphabetically, up & down, so that each time I press on the UP arrow key, I go up in the alphabet.and when I press the DOWN arrow key, I go down in the alphabet)

This isn't working right. From what I understand, it should, but it doesn't.
Code:
on(release){
var targetFrame = this._currentframe;
if(targetFrame == 10){
[Code]....
The trace returns "1" every time I press the button.
How can you switch between scenes by f.e. pressing a button I thought of using loadMovie but then I have several .swf files and I'd like everything in 1 swf file
View 7 RepliesI'm learning AS3 as I modernize the VCR controls for our e-learning topics. The way we used to do it was load the wav into the timeline and keyframe to the audio. We have a little tracker bar you can click on to jump around, a tracker icon you can drag, play/pause and FF/RW buttons. In AS2, since the wav was in the timeline, I just had to worry about frame numbers.
It seems like the modern way to do it is to load the audio as an MP3 externally. How accurate will this be as far as sync'ing the audio to the animation when using the tracker bar and jumping around? I'll basically be mathematically slicing the bar graphic into pieces and using that to tell the animation what frame to start on, and converting that to a time for the audio to start.
I really want to smooth the animation a little bit more.i want the animation to look smooth, no jumping or stopping, want continuous
View 1 RepliesI have a video (that im calling from my harddrive) that i would love to play once through,then jump onto the next frame (where theres another video that continues from the end of the first). Why can i not use the following code to jump?
on(complete){
gotoAndStop(5);
}
I am trying to make a button jump to a label in the main timeline from within a movieclip but I dont think i have the syntax etc correct. I'm getting "access of undefined property _root" when I run the following code. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? heres the code..
menuButton_IN.pHome_IN.addEventListener(MouseEvent .MOUSE_DOWN, onPressHandler);
function onPressHandler(myEvent:MouseEvent){
_root.gotoAndPlay ("home");

This is the predicament Im in. I have 3 files:
Launch.exe
video.swf
pause.swf
In the launch.exe, I have a loadmovie command which loads the external file video.swf. When the video is loaded, I want the viewer to be able to hit the SPACEBAR at any time which will result in pausing the video (pause.swf appears on screen) and after 3 seconds unloads the video.swf file and jumps to a frame label on the Launch.exe timeline. The code below is what I have at the moment but it doesn't work.
