I currently have an action that starts with a button click. But I want it to start on frame 1 automatically without a button. How do I need to edit my code to make this work correctly? It's a typewriter effect and I plan on exporting it out as a .MOV and importing it into Adobe Premiere. I also need to figure out how to get the background transparent if possible.[code]
View 3 RepliesI need an actionscript 3 function for my website, that lets people download a document after they have clicked on a button.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";
[code]....
Here is the action scrip that I created. Correct it if you can.
Process.visible = false;
Cycles.visible = false;
stop();

I'm a little new to the AS thing so I need a little help. I need a simple function that will stop an animation on the main timeline for about 10 seconds then restart again.
View 2 RepliesSorry to have to post a secondary thread...but i've had responses to the previous one and now a new problem exists. Why am I having to multiple click my button to make this function work? On each release of the button 'SUB' moves that little bit more but I need the function to work in one go after just one click!! Something is obviously working for it to move at all, I just dont understand why it's moving in stages!!

I have a function that fades out sound. It works perfectly well, yet the mirror of that which is supposed to fade IN my sounds does not start looping.[code]The issue is that the Fade_in_timer calling VOL_up never starts looping.And the very same code works well when dV is subtracted from setVol.setVol, dV and Vol are global variables defined at the top of my main code. "timers" is an array to keep track of all new timers in case I need to stop them all and remove them.the other fadeout function that works well only differs in the names of the timer and the stop criterion and that setVol is decreased gradually.
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if someone could shed some light in helping translate a AS2 function to AS3. It stops the movie's timeline from where you called the function.
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.wait = function(n:Number) {
this.stop();
this.myInterval = setInterval(mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, function () {

function nextUp (e:MouseEvent): void {

With what I got can anyone see how I can stagger the function to a specific event? Here is what I have so far, which starts the letter cycling, but it ends on the first letter and does not complete the full word:

I've made a very basic mp3 player with simple play and stop buttons and it works just fine. However I have noticed that when you click play again while the song is playing it plays the song again from the start over the top. Same if you click it 3 times 4 etcetc. I have no idea how to disable the button while the song is playing/until the user clicks stop. This is the code I have on the play button:
on (release) {
weddingSound = new Sound(this);
weddingSound.attachSound("wedding");
weddingSound.start(0, 99);
}

I have a timeline with a movie clip with the instance 'first'. this is a series of logo with buttons that move from left to right. you can click and drag them right or left, and when you roll over them, it pauses the movie.
The problem is now I need to make each logo link to a url.When I add for eg:[URL]..to the button within the movie, it does not work, it doesn't open up the url? Any ideas what actionscript or changes I need to make to allow each button to link to a url??

I have used the actions panel to write a stop code on frame one of my timeline.When I test my movie it stays on the home page, which is good! I have also created an 'enter site' button on the home page. I want to click this button and have the timeline start rolling over to frame 50 (where my next label 'contents' will be). At frame 50 I want it to stop, and so on for all of my labels/pages. The action taking place on the timeline is a pan across a panoramic photograph, which will stop at different points.
View 7 RepliesI'm very new at Flash and while Ive picked up the basics of tweening and creating animations. I'm trying to create an image of a post it note that is revelaed via a mask when a user rolls over a seperate image. I have created the animation of the mask and it revelas the note fine. My question is how do I create an invisible button and code it in action script so when I roll over image 1 my mask tween begins playing to reveal the post it.

View 5 RepliesI'm making a Century club timer, it is to execute on pressing the start button, and then run until finished (our paused, but thats not implemented yet). To keep the timer accurate I had to use the Date() function.The timer() function is used to update the displayed time. I tried using a while-loop for this, but then the whole thing would just freeze. :S So instead a use a infinite timer that ends when currentTime == targetTime.

I would like to to have 2 vidoes next to each other on a webpage which start simultaneously so that the viewer can compare the two.
what HTML code to use in order to achieve this.
How would i make a button to start an animation, and only do it once?(Also, make the button change when finished? like a cellar closed, then opened :/) (AS2)
View 2 RepliesBasically, I have a movie with a set of buttons which show some information when clicked or mouseover. Effectively, until i have clicked onto a button there is white space and when clicked, the information shows in this whitespace.What I would like to do is when the movie is loaded I would like to pretend the user has already clicked the first button, thus showing information and not white space. I can get the movie to do this however I cannot get this to then following the rest of the actionscript. It remains loaded.
In short what I am looking for is some sort of onLoad function to pretend the first button has been clicked and then ignore or unload the command and ONLY repeat this if the movie is loaded again (refresh etc)It is a movie clip NOT a button, sorry. So I would like to load the first movie clip (there are 15 in total) then cancel this command when the user interacts and clicks to move on.I have added this to the first moviemc.onLoad = function() {this.gotoAndStop(10);}But this just keeps repeating itself when the user clicks another mc to move to the next item. I need this to only happen once on load.
I need to make a point in a Flash video where the video stops and pressing a button will move to another frame. I understand there is something called a "stop action" but not what this means. Using other online instructions, I end up with the video not stopping and the button not doing anything.
View 1 RepliesAll I want, is to have a button (play_but) to start the process. I want to get rid of the enter frame business. I tried, but I had to click every time the button to draw the line. I just want to click the button once and have my line plotted.

I'm fairly new at AC2 (Yes, I need to update), and I have Flash CS3.I need to find out if I can have a button that when you click it, plays a music file, and then when you click it again, the music that was playing for that button would stop.I have a text box on top of a rectangle and I selected them both and converted them to a button symbol, named it MusicFile, double clicked on the new button, inserted a new keyframe in the timeline on "down" (where it says Up, Over, Down, Hit), and then dragged the music file from the library onto the button. It works fine, until I click the button a second time, and it just keeps playing as if I pushed play twice and two copies of the sound started playing.Is it possible to make the button play the music when it's clicked the first time, then stop the music that it was just playing the second time it was clicked?

View 2 RepliesI have a scene for the title screen and a scene for the game itself. On the title screen i have a start button, that when clicked it is supposed to go to the game scene; but for some reason this wont work. This is the code I have so far,
actions for startclick (start)
on(release){
gotoAndPlay("Game", 1);
}
I want that when someone clicks on the button, my movie will start downloading instead of showing. (meaning, you can either save or open the file). Like downloading a clip from the web.
View 5 RepliesI am creating a video player with my own buttons, play stop are easy, but I can't for the life of me get it to rewind or start again (not loop). It may be worth noting that the flash video is store within a movie clip! The flv instance is flv_close and the movie instance is mv_close.
View 4 RepliesI currently have a 23-frame multilayered single-scene animation designed to loop continuously which I would like to add to my portfolio. As such, I am adding a Play button, which I would like to toggle to a Stop (or Pause) button. I currently have an instance of the Play button ("playButton") created.
(You can find this at pineboxmovingco.com/gear_redux.swf)
Besides imploring your assistance in providing the code, I must also ask if this requires (and best practice for) inserting an additional frame at the beginning for the ActionScript, as well as where/what layer to add an instance of the Stop button. I would like the movie to be stopped by default, presenting the Play button, toggling to the Stop button, and back to the Play button, each upon release.
