I'm wanting to make is a box that is tethered to a position so that when my characters hit it from any angle it will be pushed away before bouncing back into position.Currently I can push the box but when I try to make it bounce back it does basically whatever it wants.

there must be a code to do that without hundreds of lines of code.

I have a site with a simple SWF that shows a series of frames for a cartoon each time the 'next' button is clicked. At the last frame I want to place a space for an ad such as Google Adsense. Is there a way to insert the Adsense code inside the Flash SWF so that it only displays on a particular frame?

I was going through the chapter 9 topic of animating 3d elements in Todd Perkins Flash CS4 professional essential training on lynda by opening the file and following along by clicking into the movie clip, but doing so caused me to go into symbol editing mode. When he does it on the video he goes straight into the movie where you can see the other elements on the stage. I right clicked on the movie clip and noticed that edit in place is greyed out. Why can't i get into the movieclip so i can edit the animation while seeing the other elements on the stage? I've researched everywhere and i'm confused how i can be going into symbol editing mode directly from the stage. It is late on a sunday night and i am now questioning my sanity.
View 2 RepliesIs this possible with Flash?? I want to place a SWF in the top right of the webpage, and when people click on a link from the main menu on the left of the browser, it plays the SWF. This page is written in php, so there is no refreshing of the webpage, just the content.Basically think of an elevator user clicks on menu item, elevator wheel spins, and javascript loads new content....so the elevator wheel has to play everytime a link is clicked.

I have the following code which creates a series of squares with pictures on them. I then want to scale up the squares on a roll over event. The squares are placed in the x and z coordinates so they look like they are placed on top of each other. When you roll over a square it's scaled up and when rolling out it scales down. The problem is that I want the scaled square to be on top of the rest but I don't seem to be able to figure it out

All I am trying to do is have some flash banner SWF files I created play within the portfolio page of my site. I don't want them to open in a pop up or anything just play within the page when the link on my site is clicked. I figured it would act like a movie clip and I could just drop it onto the stage, but when I do that it doesn't look right, loops continuously, and is not interactive.

View 11 RepliesI am making a sniping game in Flash CS3 (Actionscript 2.0).In the current level I'm making I want a stickman to walk to a dumpster, throw away some trash, and then walk back to his original destination. While he's walking though, I want to be able to click him and have him play the animation of him dying right on the spot. The problem I have is, he walks and throws away the trash just fine, but when I click him he doesn't fall where I killed him, he falls where the animation inside him ends.I'm going to give out all of the ActionScript I used and where I put each animation.Okay so starting on the Main Timeline is the stickman.I double-click to go inside him. When that is done it shows a short animation of him dying. The first frame has the ActionScript:
stop();
And the last frame has the ActionScipt:
stop();
_root.gotoAndStop(255);
(After he dies I want it to go to a "You Win!" page, this part works just fine.)Go inside him a second time and you get the animation of him walking to the dumpster, throwing away the trash,etc.No ActionScript here but his head is a button (obviously)so it is clickable.
So long story short: I want him to be able to move freely, but when you click him it plays the death animation right in the area I clicked him in, as apposed to the spot he dies in at the end of the animation inside him.
