ActionScript 2.0 :: [8] Using FLASHVARS To Show Different Sections Of Movie?
Nov 28, 2005
I found this seamingly usefull mini tutorial on Actionscripts.org on how to use the FLASHVARS value in the 'HTML' to controll which part of the Flash movie is shown. But I can't get it to work, the AS gives loads of errors in Flash. The value is set, as I have got a textbox showing it the values. here is the AS I did as an experement,It's just supposed to move the playhead to a different named frame depending which page loads the Flash.the FlashVars value in the html pages is page=one and page=two.
Code:
var siteManager:siteManager = new SiteManager(this, _root.page);
class SiteManager {
private var _tl:MovieClip;[code].....

Is there a way with a stacked bar chart to show interleaved sections so each row in the data set could be represented by a separate section of the stacked bar, instead of the chart summing up all the data and combining like data into a single section?

I am trying to create a nav system that expands to show sub-sections when the user rolls over main section buttons.Let me describe exactly (as best I can) how this would work:A vertical list of 5 menu buttons is stacked and distributed at equal distances.The user clicks a button (lets say Button 2) and Buttons 3, 4, 5 slide down to reveal the sub-nav below Button 2. When the user clicks or rolls back to any of the original 5 buttons, that subnav closes up.Does anyone know of a good tutorial for this type of nav or have anything I might be able to dissect and work from?

i am making a flash demo and have a bunch of different sections / categories that the movie will need to navigate to. I created a similar demo previously and used different "scenes" to keep track and organize the different categories. Should i keep using scenes to navigate to or is there a better, more professional way to do my movie?Also, where could i find more information on properly organizing and setting up my flash files? ie: naming conventions, etc.

The twitter site will give me a code to paste, but the code has a general link and some flashvars info. How would i be able to embed into my fla if there is no direct link? If i use divs to place the object on top of my flash it blinks and sometimes will not show at all.

I want to parse a hex color value into a movie and use it to dynamically change the color of a movie within called "border"
I can do this if I hard code it in using:
Code:
var colorTransform:ColorTransform = border.transform.colorTransform;
colorTransform.color = 0xff0000;
border.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform;

I have a flash banner on every page in my site. I want it to continue playing rather than reloading when users change pages. Ive read that this can be achieved using flashvars.
I have this on frame 1 of my fla file now:
var mySharedObject:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("displayCookie");
if(mySharedObject.data.displayed == true){
gotoAndPlay(currentFrame);
trace("cookie found");
[Code] ....
But I don't know how to give the currentFrame the value it had at the time the page was refreshed. How do I put that in there?

I need to display a word passed to the flash movie through flashvars. My objective is to display this word centered inside a black rectangle which length adapts to the word length. The box should be on top of everything, aligned with the right margin of the Flash Movie and 100px from the top margin.

I believe in CS3 it was possible to place a bitmap at a keyframe, then create a later keyframe, and break that bitmap up and move the sections. Then, create a motion tween to animate the peices flying apart (or back together).In CS4, this doesn't seem possible--anything I do combines the broken up bitmap into a single entitiy, rendering any tweening useless. Both Motion and Classic tweening seem incapable of such a simple task. (Shape tweening animates the peices, of course, but loses their individual shapes in the process, resulting in a mess).take a bitmap photo or a drawn rectangle or oval, and using tweening to animate it breaking apart?

The site has 6 pages: home, contents, contact, about, showreel, corporate. I have a panoramic photograph as a background across all my pages. When a button,such as contact, is clicked the timeline is enabled and scrolls across the panoramic to the 'contact' area of the photograph.I have a few questions relating to how I can achieve this. 1.) On my actions layer I have this code on frame one: stop(); enter_site_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonCLicked); function buttonClicked (event:MouseEvent):void { play(); } So when you mouseClick the timeline plays and goes to the next stop point on the timeline which is the contents section. On the contents page are the buttons which lead to the other sections. So far I have this code: stop(); about.btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked) corporate.btn.addEventListener
(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked) showreel.btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked) contact.btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked)
Each of the buttons work, but I want the timeline to play and go to the page which corresponds to the button which is clicked, not just to play the timeline until the next stop point. Is there a code which would enable the timeline to play and go to the correct section, and not just roll without a target? 2.) I also want to be able to write a code which enables the timeline to move to any section in the same amount of time. What I mean by this is that if it takes 2 seconds (48 frames) to go from the first section to the second section, I also want it to take 2 seconds to go from the second section to the sixth section (240 frames)

Flash CS4 has a feature where a tween can have more than two keyframes. If a tween has three keyframes, then changing keyframe 2 will affect the motion from keyframes 1 to 2 as well as the motion from keyframes 2 to 3. This is a very cool feature.
But there's one problem: I can only figure out how to apply an ease to the entire tween, not to the motion between two keyframes. Do you know how I can apply one ease to the motion between keyframes 1 and 2, and a different ease (or the same one a second time) to the motion between keyframes 2 and 3?
I've had two ideas so far for getting the same result:
1) Make a custom ease that includes all the eases I want. I find this too cumbersome and imprecise, unless there's a way to copy an existing curve into the space between two keyframes of a second curve (without replacing the whole second curve).
2) Split the tween at each keyframe. But then every time I want to adjust keyframe 2 I have to do it twice, and sometimes the break ends up jerking slightly. I'd really rather keep keyframe 2 a shared keyframe.

To cut a long story short, i'm learning flash in order to get a job in 2d interface design. I had some basic knowledge of the software prior to this, but i needed to further my animation to compliment my design skills, so bear in mind that this is my first major flash project. So far, everything was going well, and i was managing to achieve my vision so to speak, but i have hit a brick wall with this problem. The interface starts with three menu options, single player, multiplayer & settings; each staggered behind and to the right of the last. However the transition i have made between them (basic motion tween with blur filters changing slightly) stutters everytime.
I have uploaded the animation here so you can see for yourself. Also, here is a screenshot of the timeline for the first transition: It does it a little bit in the scaled down version, but if you view it full screen it really slows down. Also, if anyone can be bothered to wait through the slow stuff to see the animation that works

I fully understood the smooth transitions tut but I also need to make sub-sections within each section. Do I need to to make a new container mc on the section to pull up the subsection? Must I remove the (_root) to place it on a level? I have the source files to demonstrate what I tried doing. Section 1 has a button that needs to go to "sub_section1.swf".[URL]..

I have taken this script from a tutorial which uses a scrollbar and buttons to control a number of sections created by an array. I have an empty movie clip called 'content_mc' on the main stage, linked to which is a movie clip with the identifier 'section'. The tutorial doesn't explain and I can't figure out how to actually add different content into the 5 sections.

I am using a single FLV file. On the player interface in addition to play/pause and stop, I have a number of chapter buttons, which I have successfully pointed to the corresponding points in the FLV file. I need to find a way to capture and hold the relevant start and stop times of each of these chapters so that when I am in each chapter, the stop and play buttons will reference the chapter times and control only the relevant chapter, ie in Chapter Two clicking stop will reset to beginning of Chapter 2, not the start of FLV file. Not sure if there are built-in properties and methods I can use, or I need to create something custom.

I want to do something like this (Dell home page):[URL]
(But I want the cycling to stop on the selected screen once a button has been clicked.)
It can either cycle continually through the screens (I need 9 of them), or it can cycle once & then stop on the last one.
At this point, I don't really care *sigh*
I can make a movie based on this technique
[URL] (What a PITA to be unable to post links!)
that lets me jump to various sections of the timeline when buttons are clicked, and I can make the entire timeline run & then stop (or repeat), but I can't combine the two.

I'm currently working on a site that has several buttons for several sections. Each section has its own transition. My question is, if I click on button 1, section 1 content appears, now when I click on button 2, section 1 content fades away and section 2 content fades in and so on with the rest of the buttons and sections.

I used the Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash tutorial to begin creating a photo album. The start of my photo album can be viewed here: [URL]. What I plan to do is have several different "sections" that will load a different xml file when clicked (like the 3 categories listed - baby catori, first snow, second snow which I have started but are not yet functioning). What I have tried is adding a load movie to the text links, and this is working but the photos appear to load slower and it makes the fade appear somewhat choppy. You can see an example of what's happening here: [URL].

My FLA file is based in CS5 with AS3. I posted this in the AS3 forum but if it can be done without AS3 then I am open to that possibility as well.
I am creating a non-functioning form, meaning I just need it to look like a form but the functionality doesn't need to work. Atleast not in this stage of development.[code]...
