ActionScript 2.0 :: Button Release Control For Movie Clip?
May 29, 2007
I have a Movie Clip which has a button and animated image on 2 layers, there is also some action scipt to control how the layers work.The Movie clip sits in my main windows and what I need to do is make the movie clip action open a swf external file in the movie clip holder I have made, I have acomplished the orignal external file to load, but now need to add diffrent files to the Movie Clip buttons.here is the base code for loading the original external file\ Code \loadMovie("news.swf","movieholder");
I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) { _root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true; } on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
I'm trying to get an invisible button to control the timeline of a movie clip. On rollOver, I want my movie, clipA, to move foward 1 frame for every fps that the user is over the button, starting with frame 40, until clipA reaches frame 50. Then on the rollOut I want clipA to move backward 1 frame for every fps that the user is off the button until it goes back to frame 40.
I was trying to use _currentframe+=1 & _currentframe-=1, but i got no response.
I am trying to control a movie clip symbol within a button. The movie clip instance is named within the button and starts on the "Over" section. I want to control it from the button instance - ie. using roll over, roll off etc. Using dot notation I tried :
PHP Code:
on (rollOver) { tellTarget ("_root.buttonname.movielcipname") { gotoAndStop (2); } }
I am looking to control a movie clip with a backwards and forwards button. I need the clip to stop at every 5 second increment both backwards and forwards. my movie clip is 25 seconds long.
I have found script for playing a movie in reverse and have tried to change this so it will stop in the above points instead of playing to the beginning or end, but my knowledge in as3 is very limited.
Do i need to put some script that plays with percentage?
I have a button action not working to control another movie clip timeline. The movie clip timeline I want to control has an instance name but for some reason it's not playing. The button is on a different movie clip timeline. Both movie clips are on Scene 1. I think there is something wrong with my target path?
I am using CS3 with Actionscript 2.0I am trying to get a play / pause button to control a movie clip.I have placed the MC on one layer and the button on another layer.The button works great.All I need is the AS to control the timeline of the movie clip.
I'm doing a little project where I have a movie clip with 2 frames, the second frame has a video in it that's a movie clip, I have a on(release) on the movie clip, but it's not doing anything when I click is the outer movie clip stealing clicks from the one inside or something? oh, also the outer movie clip is being used as a button as well because it zooms in or out when you click it, so that might be another problem
i got this scramble text effect at this siteand when u rollover the text it does the scramble text effect i wanted to know if u can also put a on release function and have it load an swf into and empty movie clip
I'm making a site in Flash MX, and I have dynamic text boxes so that the data can be easily changed. For navigation I'm using rollover buttons.
My rollover buttons are actually movie clips. I don't like to use buttons for rollover animations because when you roll off of them, they jump back to their normal state without a smooth transition. This doesn't look too good.
When a user navigates the site and clicks, I want the rollover buttons to load up dynamic text in 2 different boxes (header and content) from a .txt file on the server.
I did this successfully with regular buttons, but for some reason, the exact same actionscript doesn't work with the movieclips. How come? I did this from a tutorial on this site. Heres my code for the movie clips:
Code: on (rollOver) { this.gotoAndPlay("roll_on"); }

I am making a web site in flash in which I have multiple movie clips.I have mc_buttonMenu on the main timeline.Inside of mc_buttonMenu, I have 3 buttons that are all button symbols.From the main timeline, I have a movie clip called mc_allPages.In this movie clip, I have a few layers.I have the content layer.This layer controls how my pages display.I have another layer called labels.I labeled frames 1 to 10 as 'home' and layers 11 to 20 as 'contactUs'.I have another layer in mc_allPages called actions.I put a stop(); on frame 10 and frame 20 on this layer.I want to be able to control the movie clip mc_allPages from within the movie clip mc_buttonMenu.I put some action script in various places, but it never worked.I tried this action script:
I tried placing that code on the main timeline, inside mc_allPages, inside mc_buttonMenu and split up into both buttons appropriately for btn_home and btn_contactUs.Sometimes the animation would stop on frame 10 and sometimes it would just play through to frame 20 and ignore the stop(); I put on frame 10 inside the mc_allPages movie clip.However, whenever I pressed the button ( btn_contactUs ), it never went to the frame labeled "contactUs" in the allPages movie clip.
Underlined Text On (rollOver) Is there an action script to do on (rollover) underline text? It would be on a button that would also, on (release) gotoAndPlay a frame. I know you can have a movie with AS like this:
[Code]....
But when I add the on (release) to the movie it doesnt advance the timeline on (release). And when I change the file to a button instead of a movie clip it doesnt do the underline on (rollOver).
I am trying to find a way to make a movie clip resize larger on mouse release, then resize back to the original size on a second mouse release. I have tried many ways to do this but seem to be unable to come up with a solution. I have been using mc Tween.
I have a movie that consists of various audio files fading in and out of various scenes as the timeline progresses. The current mute button I've created only appears to stop the audio track currently playing when pressed. How do I silence the movie from the point of button release until the movie has played to the end? Just as an FYI, the audio files are loaded and managed manually on the timeline itself.
I am trying to place buttons inside a movie clip to control the timeline of the same movie clip. This does not seam to work like buttons on the main timeline. When I play the movie the cursor does not turn into a hand and the rolloever affects only sort of work. I have read about controling the movie clip with buttons on the main timeline, but I need one of the buttons to change halfway through the movieclip. I want to be able to jump to interior shots while in the exterior section and vice versa. It would seem that button would work the same way inside a movie clip as they do on the main timeline, but that does not appear to be the case. I am using CS3. Action scrip 2.0 is selected, but I could change it to 3.0 if it would make a difference.
On my timeline have two movie clips. In one of my movie clips i have a button that when you click it i want it to navigate to another frame in the other movie clip. Here is the code i have in the movie clip with the button.
i want to put a condition on the button event on (release) to check which frame of the movie symbol is stopped. something like if(frame 3 is stoped) gotoAndPlay(14).
I'm new to Flash and am looking to use the following tutorial to create an advanced button. I know it is probably a very simple fix, I just cannot figure it out. [URL] In the tutorial the rollover and onrelease has the following script this.onRollOut = function(){ rewind = true;} this.onRelease = function(){getURL [URL]); } I have tried to change the on.Release command to go to and play another frame in to movie instead of opening a new url. But I'm not getting it to work correctly.
What action script would i need to make a button in one movie clip goto and play a frame in another movie clip? Im not very good at flash but i've been trying my usual codes but it dont work..
I have a parent movieclip (present_content_mc) that has two nested movie clips, players_content_mov is the first one. It's on frame 6 of the parent clip. The second movie clip, bios_mc is on frame 7 of the parent clip.
Now, my problem is getting a button on frame 2 of players_content_mov to go to frame 18 of bios_mc on click. Here are the two types of coding i've tried[code]...
Im trying to control a movie clip that is part of a swf from another swf file. For example. My main flash file is called index.swf. this flash files loads another flash file called image.swf within image.swf are several movie clips (mc_1, mc_2) that I need to control show hide. I need to do so directly from index.swf.This would be flash 9 action script 2.Here is the code i am trying to work with. "filter" is a movieclip on index.swf. mc_1 and so on are movie clips on image.swf. What is the path i need to define before "mcfadeTo..."[code]
I am simply trying to tell my main timeline to go to the next frame when a movie clip reaches the end of its timeline (using AS3). Here is what I have which does not work.
I try to control nested movie clip.So i have box movie clip and on this movie clip i put tree movie clip.And now i try to change for example apha of tree. Code:
