ActionScript 1/2 :: Making An Array On Or After Frame 13 Invisible
Jun 17, 2009
I have a movieClip called "button" within another movieClip called "movie1_mc" I want the "button" movieclip, which also loads XML on frame 12 of "movie1_mc to vanish on or after frame 13
This is the code I have in place but, "button" movieClip isn't disappearing. This is my first time using XML and Flash
//Code to "button movieClip disappear//
if (_root._currentframe == 13) {var linkname:Array = [_visible=false];}

Im a bit a of a noob when it comes to AS. I have a problem that I think should be very easy to solve.
I have a shape that I turned into a button and gave it an instance name of "CA" I also have an array that has a string item called "CA"
I want to be able to make the button invisible by using the array instead of just writing the instance name. I have the following code but it just doesnt work.

I've built an image scroller but I'd like to make the 'next' and 'previous' buttons invisible at the first and last frames frames respectively. The code I'm using for the scroll is below. I think the code I'm after should be something like this:
HTML Code:
if (targetX<720) {
btn_Previous.visible = false;
}
But I can't work out where I should put it (or even if it's correct) within the scroller code.

I have a button inside a movie clip that when pressed it launches another movie clip. That part works great. The problem I'm having now is either removing the original movie clip or at the very least making it invisible when the next movie launches. So far for my button script this is what I have:
onRollOver=function(){
this.gotoAndPlay("_over");
};
onRollOut=function(){

I'm having trouble targeting elements of an array using AS3. I have five buttons in an array named botons.
var botons:Array = [boton_1, boton_2, boton_3, boton_4, boton_5];
Each button goes to a different page, but they all are on the same layer like navigation bar. When page 1 is visited button 1 should be invisible and the others visible. When on page 2, button 2 should be invisible but all others visible.
I used the following to make the entire array invisible and it works.
for(var i:int; i<clips.length;i++){botons[i].visible=false;}
How can I make each button invisible when visiting its page, but make the rest visible?

I'm having trouble working with buttons in an array. I would like to target specific button and make it invisible while the others remain visible. Each buttons goes to a page (first, second, third, etc.). There are five buttons named button1... button5. I'm using AS3 in timeline.
Problem: when I click a button, it doesn't get invisible and I get this message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at subtraction_fla::MainTimeline/goPNext()
Here is my script:
stop();
var button= [button1, button2, button3, button4, button5];
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goPNext);

I've made a drawn menu with curves in my root. This menu loads dynamically swf into an empty container mc. Within some of these swfs, there are full page image galleries. However, the drawn curves seem to stick on top of these swf: I can still see them although the rest of the content is invisible. Now I want to make those curves also invisible...
Code:
//API AND LINES//
box2.lineStyle (1, 0xff00ff,0);
box2.beginFill(0xCCCCCC,0);
box2.moveTo(0,0);
[code]....
Now I want to realise a function in an externally loaded swf that makes these lines/curves invisible. i was thinking myself of something like
Code:
btImages.onPress = function (){
_root.line.lineStyle(0.5,0xCCCCCC,0);
gotoAndStop (3);
}
But unfortunately thsi doesnt work.

I have several movieclips placed on the timeline that I want to be invisible and not run until the user clicks a button. The movieclips are linked to a class I set up:
Code:
class Hidestop extends MovieClip {
function onLoad() {
[Code]....
The problem is that some, but not all, movieclips show briefly when they load before becoming invisible. I can get around this by starting each movieclip with a blank frame, but there must be a better way.

making a scrollbar invisible until a button is pressed. (in actionscript)

I have a movie clip which has a dynamic mask applied to it to provide a scroll effect.
The mask is generated with the 'create blank movieclip' method.
So the mask is a movie clip over a movie clip.
I hunted for invisible text last night and found this link [URL]
which implies it's to do with the mask being on a layer, but from what I can gather from reading the AS, it's not it's on a new blank movie clip.
Also many other links I found all imply it's an issue with dynamic text and the font needs to be embeded, but the underlying text is not dynamic, it's static normal text which has been used in a movieclip to create animated rollover/out effects.
So why is the text missing when the content is scrolled into view?
If you hover over where the text is supose to be, the animation plays and the text becomes visible?
Also the arrow graphic next to the text which forms part of the animation does display; it's just the text portion which is invisible?

I have a movie into which I am loading external swfs. this all works fine but some of the content is duplicated and where there is slimline text it shows that there are two layers. see the header on white here:
how can i set the alpha to 0 or remove the host movieclip, from the externally loaded swf. does that make sense? so once the external swf has loaded into the empty movieclip then the parent movie disappears.

i have a few buttons that use loadmovienum to load a few clips into levels. The code on each button is something similar to:
on(release){ loadMovieNum("print_index.swf",1);printbutton._visible = false;webbutton._visible = false;illusbutton._visible = false;threedbutton._visible = false;retouchbutton._visible = false;}
But because the print_index movie slowly scrolls across the stage rather than immediately replace it, there is a moment where the button turns completely invisible after the click. Perhaps the bigger problem is that it doesnt make any of the accompanying buttons invisible like it is supposed to- only the one that is clicked.

I have invisible buttons on a movie clip that is loading swfs onto a parent movie clip. I hope I am current in the terminology. Are a parent and root the same? Is saying root absolute and parent relative? I'm digressing.So, this this._parent.gotoAndPlay("contact form"); is going to the keyframe named "contact form" and it will stop there. What I want to happen, is, I want the other invisible button named aboutmeMC2 to go back to the keyframe named "skip" so my contact form will no longer show up and it will load the external swf
ActionScript Code:
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("contact form");

This is for a website with seven frames (one page per frame)
I can load the gallery .swf in background but I only want it to show up on frame 7 (gallery button). Then if the user goes anywhere else (eg. home button - frame 1) the loaded gallery .swf disappears.
I can load it and make it invisible, and can make it visible on frame 7 but then it's visible when you navigate anywhere else.
This is the load code on entering frame 1:
stop();
//make gallery invisible in this frame
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, invisible);
function invisible (event:Event):void
[Code].....

I have a combobox and when selected i would like to show the data in an input text box. The text box appears on another frame and i was advised to make the combo box invisible after i used it and retain its presence on the timeline. I thought i would be able to duplicate the combobox i needed and place it on the frame with the input text box, but this didnt work, neither did duplicating the actions. Been trying for the last couple of hours and have hit a brick wall, hoping someone can point me in the general direction.

I want to make the timeline go to the next frame (ie gotoAndStop) only if two button instances are invisible. For the buttons I have scripted an on(release) to make them invisible, but I don't know how to use the if function to make my animation progress when they are both invisible.

I've been following the book "Beggining Flash Programing for Dummies" and I have come up to a part where I create a very simple game.
The script involved in the frames are FRAME here:
stop();
btnGoThere.onRelease = function(){ _root.gotoAndStop("there");
} //end event handler
Frame there
btnGoHere.onRelease = function(){ _root.gotoAndStop("here");} // end release
When I test the movie and click the button, the frames don't seem to change.

I am making a frame by frame animation, where I draw a character, make a new frame and use the onion skin to slightly move my character. Is there a way to make a certain part faster than others? I made a character prepare to kick someone, but since i was doing it frame by frame it looks slow. So instead of taking out frames and making it look choppy, how do I make a certain part faster or increase its FPS? I tried making a new scene and changing its FPS, but that still changes the overall FPS.

I've got a basic little slide show player which is timeline-based, rolling through 5 images with alpha transitions, and on the topmost layer, I have 5 invisible movie clips which have actions applied to them as follows:
on (press) { gotoAndPlay(21);}
This action should allow for the on click button to navigate to that specific frame, or image, but for some reason it is not working.
