ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 - Move Playhead From XML Hyperlink?

Apr 7, 2009

I have a Flash image gallery containing both images and captions fed by an XML sheet. I have an HTML hyperlink in the XML (wrapped in CDATA tags) that I want to control the Flash movie with, i.e. go to frame 70 when link is clicked.

I found this piece of code but it didn't work:

Code:
<![CDATA[<a href="$70" target="_blank">Link</a>]]>

Professional :: Get The Playhead To Move Forward?

Apr 1, 2012

I have simple flash CS4 file (AS3) with a video playback component in a movie clip called "video". The only other thing in this flash movie is a script to load another SWF file as soon as the video is done playing....If I use stop() on the frame with the video - it will play - but then the playhead will not move forward to the next frame which has the next script and if I leave the stop() off - it plays only a a few frames of the video and moves on to the next frame and executes the script that loads the swf file.
 
Everything I've read requires a button event - and I don't need a button.  I just need the video to play - then the next script to execute.Here are the only scripts in the flash movie:
 
***************************** // in the frame containing video component
stop()
*********************************** // in the next frame after video component.
stop();

[code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A MovieClip Playhead Move According To Percentage Loaded?

Aug 14, 2009

I'm trying to make a simple animated movieclip act as a preloader for a larger website, and have its play reflect the percentage that has been loaded. I've seen a lot of code for various preloaders that involve text or a movieclip being scaled, but not anything regarding controlling the playhead of a movieclip.

This is what I thought would work. PreLoaderMC is the class name of a MovieClip symbol in the .fla's library. I've omitted the Loader stuff [code]...

Playhead Not Functional In Motion Editor?

Sep 4, 2009

The playhead in Motion Editor doesn't work and I'm seeing in tutorials.I can't scrub it along the timeline.When I pick a keyframe point it doesn't appear there unless I change the value of that point. If I then click on the playhead rectangle, the playhead disappears (actually it appears to jump to the first frame where it's half visible and can't be moved).I was playing with the motion editor interface trying to better define the problem and I figured out what's wrong.

The Motion Editor values for graph size, expanded graph size, and viewable frames were unusable in their default settings. In particular, viewable frames were set to 1 by default. As I increased the value the playhead started to function. I can't set a value higher than 117. I've maxed-out the graph size setting at 180 (300" wide format display) and the expanded graph size at 200.

ActionScript 1/2 :: FLVPlayback Playhead Not Moving

Jul 14, 2008

I'm using the FLV playback component in AS2 published to Flash 9.

I'm loading in a list of possible FLV (and mp4) videos from XML and then based on the user's input setting the contentPath of the component.

I'm using the external steel playback controls--although I've tried some of the other ones as well.

The video is starting just fine. The metadata is received. But for some reason the little triangle that shows how much of the video has played isn't moving. I can drag it and seek around, but then the triangle just sits there.

I've checked the playheadUpdate event and it is giving the correct percentages every little bit (I'm guessing 250 milliseconds which it says is the default interval).

Professional :: Moving Playhead Along Timeline

Aug 30, 2011

I apologize if this questions has already been asked and answered. I tried searching through the Flash forum and was unable to find the answer I was looking for. I am very new to Flash and apologize for the simplicity of the question, but I am having trouble moving the playhead along the timeline in Flash. For example, when I open up a new Flash project, and start out with the initial layer with it's single frame, I am having trouble moving the playhead forward to frame i.g. "75" or "80". My questions is, can I not move the playhead because I do not have content past frame one or can I not move the playhead because I have accidentally initiated a button or action that will only allow me to scrub my playhead through frames with content. On the off chance I had done this, I tried restarting Flash with the default settings with no success. Again, I realize this may be a very simple question and I am hoping the answer will be the same.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Target The Playhead Of A Loaded Swf?

Jan 26, 2007

I'm loading a swf into a container clip and I'd like to target this swf for control such as gotoAndPlay, etc.

I thought targeting the container clip would do it but it's not. Here's my script so far:

var mediaMenu:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mediaMenuHolder", 1);
mediaMenu._x = 15;
mediaMenu._y = 175;
var mediaMenuLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mediaMenuLoader.loadClip("mediaMenu.swf", "mediaMenuHolder");
this.mediaMenuHolder.gotoAndPlay(2);

The swf is loading but I can't seem to give it any instructions.

IDE :: Make The Playhead Start On Frame 1?

Oct 15, 2009

If I have for example a simple timeline with 2 labels.The first one is called "Intro" and the second one is called "Loop".So I would like to make the playhead start on frame 1 ("Intro" starts) and when it gets to frame 100 ("Loop" ends), make it loop 3 times and then go back to frame 1.So I would simply write the code:

[code]...

Lets say it does, how would it increment loops to more than 1, if when its incremented to 1 the playhead goes to frame 1, runs that code again, so loops would be assigned 0 again, right?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop The Playhead At A Frame In A Movieclip

Jun 7, 2009

to stop the playhead at a frame in a movieclip should AS3 use "MovieClip(this).stop();" rather than just "stop();" ?
 
the movieclip is nested within several others dynamically and therefore cannot easily be referenced directly from the stage, if that would be otherwise preferable...

Controlling The Playhead Between Slides In Flash Presentation

Jun 23, 2009

After using Flash for many years for animation I've finally discovered the Flash Presentation document setup, but I'm stumbling at the first hurdle in getting my head around the document structure and how the playhead moves between slides/screens.
 
I have a small 48 frame animated "text bullet" which fades in and then glows for a second.  I have placed this on one layer in slide 2, and have tweened it so that it flies in from the left of the screen, stopping in the middle.  This is great but have noticed that when advancing to the next slide, slide 3, and then hitting the left arrow to go back to slide 2, the animated instance of the text bullet is at the same position/state as when I navigated away from slide 2 to slide 3.
 
So how come the playhead doesn't automatically jump to the start (frame 1) of slide 2 when I navigate back?  I have explored the Behaviours but haven't managed to sort out this very basic first step
