The idea is to click on a mc that takes you back one frame (into a different room) and it changes the visibilty of another mc in the new room to false. Here is the code so far:
poodle_mc.onPress=function(){ _root.rooms_mc.safeClosed_mc._visible=false; _root.rooms_mc.gotoAndStop("Office");}
I return to the "Office" frame just fine but the safeClosed_mc is still visible
I have a movieclip which has 3 frames inside it. These each have a movie clip on them which is different. There are three frames on the above layer. The first two have code on them which check the date and time and then skips to the next frame if a specified date is reached. The final frame is just a stop as its the final option. So Its works great in as2 but I am trying to rebuild in AS3. I think I am nearly there but since you cant have two of the same function its throwing a wobbler - also when I rename the 2nd function (on the 2nd frame) it wont compile correctly throwing all sorts of errors.
Code:
stop();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, functionOne);
function functionOne(event:ENTER_FRAME):void{
var today:Date = new Date ();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear()
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2011,05,22);

got a big fixed dimension boxe that have 9 small child boxes positionned like this:
1 2 3
The big boxe is 300x300 and each small boxe are 100x100.
What I need to do is that, if I stretch boxe #1 to 150x150, boxes #2 should become 50x100 so the big boxe remain the same..... hope I'm clear enough.
So, how can I do this dynamically hasving in mind that the big boxe can contain unlimited numbers of small boxe?
I just need a startnig point to figured out how to acheive this in AS3,
I have x amount of MCs arranged vertically with the distance between each being the same. When I roll over any of them the X & Y scale increases for that particular MC with a tween and on roll out they decrease to the MC's original size. Here comes the sticky bit...how can I maintain the distance between each when the scale of an individual MC is increased/decreased? I have attached a basic swf to show you what I mean. (Only the middle MC is active).
View 6 RepliesI have a few language buttons on frame 1 (englishbtn, spanishbtn) in a long timeline with a bunch of keyframes, buttons and movieclips. What I don't know how to do is set up the buttons so that, when pressed, tells a movieclip on a keyframe later in the timeline, to be on a specific frame label (english, spanish).
In other words, when the game gets to the later keyframe with text movieclip, I want the movieclip on that frame to be at a specific frame in the clip (english, spanish), because the button was pressed on frame 1. Some of the text is deep in movieclips on various frames. So those movieclips need to be on the spanish frame, if spanish button on frame1 was pressed.
I have a movie clip object with a width of 306 and height of 194. I need to change the dimensions of the movie clip and still have the x and y scale set at 100. Currently when I change the movie clip width to 352.8, the x scale increases to 115.3%. I have to have the scale reset to 100% after I've adjusted the movie clip's width. Is there a way to do this in CS3? (this is all in design mode, not run time). Do I need to delete the movie clip and recreate it?
View 2 RepliesI have a quiz that randomly sorts then dynamically places a question and its answer choices. An answer is a text field laid over a movie clip with a resizable, invisible rectangle and a radio-type button (not actually the radio button component) that handles the rollover and feedback. When clicked, it looks like a selected radio button if correct and has a big red X if incorrect. At this point, I remove all its eventListeners and leave it in the feedback state because the user gets to try again. It also places a feedback box on the screen with the standard, "Try again."
This all works perfectly with the mouse, but the quiz is for .gov sites, so it has to be 508 compliant. When tabbing to and clicking on an answer, the feedback button works fine, and the feedback dialogue does, too. When tabbing to another answer, however, the incorrect try resets to its up state, minus the eventListeners. I am disabling buttonMode when the eventListeners are removed, and I've tried doing all this before the feedback box is placed, as it's placed, and after the user clicks to continue. It doesn't make a difference, and neither does including tabEnabled = false; I tried not even adding the FOCUS_IN and FOCUS_OUT, and that didn't make a difference.
I could removeChild and then add it back as a new, never-been-a-button object, but if there is a simple setting, I'd like to know about it.

View 5 RepliesI am using an external class to control a movieclip placed in the stage, which has been drawn in flash. Part of it involves controling the clip's children . Now, the thing is, there is one child having an instance name, say ball, from frame 1 to 10. Then, from frame 11 I have removed this one, and added another child (with another type). I have given this new child the same instance name as the one I have removed. When I try to access object ball in frame 11, it doesn't work.

View 2 RepliesI generally don't mess with the timeline, but I need to for this project. In a nutshell: user can customize a product reference sheet with her choice of crossection, footprint, etc. All those choices exist as external swfs. In order to be legible, the reference sheet must be two pages.I know how to print multiple frames with Flash. But what I cannot yet achieve is loading external swfs into movieclips on different frames, and then print that. Here's my code from a test fla:[code]Now, this code will print both frames as separate pages, but the loaded image in printArea.holder2 does not print!
View 3 RepliesI'd like to control a movie clips current frame by another movie clips action script.I realise the following controls the outside (root) frame time line:
on(release){
_root.gotoAndStop(1);
}
but I'm not sure how to apply that to my other movie clip. I'm guessing it would be something like this:
on(release){
_*movie_clip_name*.gotoAndStop(1);
}
is there a way to refer to all movie clips on the stage or apply a function to all movie clips without applying the function to all manually?

View 3 Replies this cursor follow works in a single frame on the main timeline with a stop action :
// kisses start and follow cursor
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, start_kisses);
function start_kisses(event:Event) {
staged_kiss_mc.x = stage.mouseX;
[code]....
How can this same function be called in various frames throughout the main timeline? For instance, say the above code is on frame one and the "staged_kiss_mc" is extended from frames 1 to 10. On all frames there is also a stop action (along with additional code, content, etc.)How can the function "start_kisses" be activated on each of the 10 frames in the same way it is on frame 1 ?Is it necessary to add a new Event Listener? Do new functions need to be coded for each frame, such as start_kisses1, start_kisses2, etc.? --Or can the same original function be reused?
embarrassed to ask becasue i know its gonna be something simple i over looked. This is what im trying to do i have a movie clip that i want to use as a home button and i want this clip to be on every frame of the movie. well i created a function that whenever this clip is clicked it returns you to the second frame of the movie. now i declared the function on frame 2 when i try and call it from frame three it gives me a 1084 error. Is it even possible to call a function like that from a different frame? This is the actionscript i have in frame 2
stop();
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,homeClick);
about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,aboutClick);
[code]........
I am working with some actionscript that are spread out amongst different frames, and having changing conditions, determines whether to end the sequence (gotoAndStop(1)) or continue (gotoAndPlay(5))
(For easy example):
frame 4=
x=1
frame 5 =
x=x+1
frame 6 =
if (x=10){
gotoAndStop(1)
}else{
gotoAndPlay(5)
}
I understand this easy example could be done several ways on one frame easily, (while x<10, etc).. but my code is so long and complicated, that the way I wrote it, it was easier to have it sort of "loop" between frames. The problem with this is, I think the frame jumping is slowing the coding down. I tried functions, (like having all coding in frame 5 as a function, then calling that function with the "else" in frame 6), but that would only run the function once.. I need it to keep looping.
I'm making an educational software by AS3.I call "part1Act()" from frame1 and everything works very well.But when I call the same "part1Act()" from the frame 58, flash throw me this error.

The text frame is named --> theText

How can use this function on other frames? Also I have considered that it might be some kind class I need to import, I don't know, I am still new AS and I and more familiar with AS2.
