ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 : Have A Button That Pauses The Flash Movie?
Apr 25, 2010
I want to have a button that pauses the flash movie. When clicked, the flash movie stops and another animation plays.Specifically Im making a flash movie about the evolution of geometry for my math class. Animations are going to be playing, and when my teacher clicks the Info button, a screen pops down with the related information about the scene playing.
This code loads an external intro movie, and allows me to remove it when I hit the back button.I was wondering how I can add another button that pauses/plays the introPage.swf at whim from the container .swf file?
I have a movice clip of a container "traveling" down a conveyor belt. I duplicate this movie 30 times (to simulate 30 items moving down the line). The code I'm trying is below.My problem. When the 2 duplicate clip item is created - I want to pause the duplication, (stopping items on the conveyor belt) play a movie clip (next to second item to explain what has happened), then continue duplication, stop duplication again at eighth item, (do similar to #2) play another movie clip - then continue all duplication until I hit 30. At which point they all start falling off the conveyor belt.
// NOTE, this is a movie clip, not on the main timeline...so all control needs to happen in this movie clip's timeline delay = 1 count = 0 i = 0
Does flash pause its execution somehow if the browser tab in which its residing is inactive? developed a multiplayer game using cirrus and when I tried to play it by switching tabs, aking a move in each tab, there were some inconsistencies regarding the way the game executed as if the inactive tab pauses the flash execution and then resume once it was active.
I have this code to use to pause animations in different areas of a .fla, for each pause I have been copying this and changing the "var timelinePause" and other items as shown after the original code, is repeating this code for each pause just junk code? is there something else from this that I can use to pause?
I am going to have 2 flv videos on an HTML page and a footer link at the bottom that will pop up the terms and conditions with a video in that (silly yes but bare with me). Is there a way to stop all SWF videos once that link is opened so that video is the only one playing?
I want to make an instructional video with various panning, cursor movements, and info box popups. I'm going to attempt to do this video in all actionscript and expect to use the Timer class and Tweener for all the tweening. What's the best way of approaching a project like this? Can Tweener be stopped in between its tween in order to pause?
I recently made a flash file with a fps of 24 with a motion tweened oobject which moves from below and stops when it's already on the upper part. the only code i added is the stop(); on the last frame. When I Shift+Enter it, the motion tween works flawlessly. The problem is, when I Ctrl+Enter it, the motion tweened object suddenly pauses three times in the middle part.
All images included have "Allow Smoothing" checked.
I am attempting to loop a portion of an animation in Adobe Flash Professional using actionscript 3.0.
I have added 2 extra layers to my project, called "Labels" and "Actionscript".
I have named the Labels layer "loop" and and added a blank keyframe at the start frame of the sequence I want to loop. On the Actionscript layer, I have added a blank keyframe at the last frame of the project and added the following actionscript code:
I need to flash a series of words for 2.5 seconds with a pause for .5 seconds. The words are drawn from an array that is assigned, but I need to have these words flash in a particular order.For example, if the "words" were A, B, C, D, E (each of which I've assigned a stored value), I might need to show A C E B A A F.
how do i add a paypal buy now button and a view cart button to my flash movie??I have the code for html... but i dont know how to integrate it in flash
I have a Flash banner that needs to execute a Javascript function outside the movie. This is required to occur on a click of a Flash Button. How would the best way to get this done be? What reading could I start with?
I'm trying to make a flash website that has clickable buttons that will play different movie clips. But I dont know how to make it to just play the movie clip with the button you click without playing all the movie clips on the main timeline.
I have 2 movie clips, one names mc_frame01 and another mc_frame02. I've tried to set variables and arguments to make it easier when theres more mc_frameXX's. All I want the animation to do is first MC slides in from the right, pauses, then slides off to the left. Then repeat for each MC. With the code below, both MC's seem to slide in from the right at the same time and that's it.
I'm looking to create a flash based popup window when a button is pressed within the flash movie. Not a javascript based html window or html browser window, but a window that is in the flash movie that is entirely flash based. I looked all over the internet and can't seem to find anything on this, and can't find anything on this board either. I am new to flash and actionscripting in general. I would also like to use the Tweener external class, or the flash tween class would work too.
I've created a flash movie, and I want to make it a banner. I had an idea in mind to have the movie load and play in loop. When a user rolls over the movie (entire movie) the movie changes to something else (like an info movie). [URL]. Attached is my FLA file
I have a flash movie, which I want to use as a header for a website. When I play the movie, I have 5 different buttons on it. When I open through Flash the .fla file it shows me that there is one button copied 5 times.How do I change the name in one of the buttons in the movie, I want when I play the movie, to have a different name on the button, but I don't understand from where do I change the name, if all the buttons I have in the .fla file has the About me name, I suggest the name is the same because all the buttons does the same effect when you go over them.
Alrighty so I'm super new to actually using coding in Flash (this is my first time, actually) so... yeah. And I pretty much registered an account on here just to ask this.I'm using ActionScript 2 and Flash CS4, and I'm trying to get my play button to play a movie clip. Originally it was in .wmv format, but I have tried importing it in different ways in different file formats to see if it works any better. It works perfectly when I demo it in Flash with the ctrl+enter thing and if I just open the thing in my browser, but when I upload it to my deviantART (to showcase video since they don't support video) it clicks the button and displays a white screen.I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong, as I've been leafing through a lot of tutorials and trying those out, and it works fine in Flash.
is there a code to close the flash player window from a button in the flash movie? i want to run a movie full screen then have a button in the flash movie close the window when the people are done viewing it.
I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) { var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I'm looking for a script which "pauses" a scene/frame for a set amount of time, then afterwards moves onto the next scene.I could not find a tutorial specifically on this topic on here or flashkit.
Is it possible to build a UI with Flash CS5 that contains multiple buttons, and then have flex listen to those button events?
My current plan is to load the SWF with SWFLoader and attaching listeners to the buttons in a onComplete event would be the proper way to set it up, however i cannot seem to find a way to access the buttons themselves and attach listeners to them. Of course i would give each button its own instance name.
I'm extremely new to flash, having just started using it this semester for a class. I'm putting together a fairly simple "portfolio slideshow" (it's a mock up for a website) for an assignment, but ran into some issues.
I have two sections on the "home page"; still images and time-based files. Each file is activated by a button (a thumbnail of the image). Ideally, when you click on the thumbnail, it brings up the image, or the movie. I got the buttons to work fine for navigating through the still images, but I can't get them to work for the movie files. I want to be able to click the button and have the movie file pop up. I have a feeling it has something to do with mistakes during importing the files, or just me not knowing the script.
I'm trying to implement a multiple file uploader and expose and API for javascript. Even though I think I can handle urlrequests, I'm having a hard time making a SimpleButton.I want the button to have the size of the movieclip/sprite that I create. I'm trying without luck to make a movieclip of 130px x 30px, and have a simple button that fills the entire area. What I try to do in actionscript:
private var _button:SimpleButton = new SimpleButton(); private var _fileList:FileReferenceList = new FileReferenceList(); private var _buttonShape:Shape;[code].......
I'm using intelij to compile this. how to build it with the SDK alone.
I have a feeling this is a very simple thing to do, but I just can't seem to find an answer by simply googling it.
I have no other actionscript in this whole .fla file except a stop();
I have a button, inside the button I have a movie clip at the OVER location.
That movie clip simply plays 10 frames, and at the last frame I set the action stop();
All I want it to do is stop these 10 frames from looping, while the scene keeps doing what it does. Instead, as soon as the 10th frame inside that movie clip plays, it stops the whole scene.
I want to clic a button and open a new window with a flash movie (with the exact dimensions of the SWF), without the browser options and centered, how to?
I have started using flash for my new site for a business I am starting. Using Flash CS4 and it�s been a while since I have used flash so I am relatively new to this new version. [code]...
