ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Get Functions To Work After Re-entering First Frame?
Jun 11, 2008
I don't know what's going on here. I have some onRelease functions on movieclips that work fine. However one of them takes the user to a contact form in another frame but after selecting another button to go back to the first frame of the movieclip none of the functions work again.Here's a link to my swf so you can see what I mean:
http:[url].....It's kind of glitchy because it's on deviantart and I took out a lot of stuff so the .swf would be smaller.And here is the action script I'm using:
I'm thinking because the actionscript is located in the _root of the whole .fla and all the action is happening in the img movieclip that something is off.
What command do I enter for the movie to rewind to first frame on entering a certain frame / stopping in a frame?It's my first time using Flash, and I'm working on a double menu (second menu has a "close" button, where I want to get back to the first menu).
OK, I am trying to get the following functions to load and unload the video to my main timeline when I go in and out of a frame. I tried on Enter_FRAME but it is now working properly and load many instances.
What are the listeners I need to do to call the functions of oCoach when enetering a frame and fclickCV when leaving a frame?
I have a flash movie with a kind of intro to enter the website. I need a script to navigate to a new url when the animation reach the frame 500. I don't have any buttons. I am saying that cause I already know how to make it work with a button but not with a frame number. What do I need to change in the script? Here's a button script I have;
btn_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,a); function a(e:Event){ var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.website.com"); navigateToURL(request, "_self"); }
So what should I change to make it work when it entered the frame 500 instead of when a button is clicked?

I am making my first website in flash based on frames. When you go to an other frame the Stage fades out. When you enter the frame you see nothing at all. So how can I clear the stage when entering the frame or even better it fades into the frame with clearing the objects & code of the previous frame.[code]...
is it possible to hide the cursor upon entering a frame. i know you can hide the cursor when you use a custom cursor hideCursor=true but what about like .... if you have a button and on the over state you have a movie, upon entering the movie the cursor hides?

Code: /*buttons naar frames*/ homehome.mouseChildren = false;

I have a magazine of 40 frame. each frame is a different page. in one page (frame) i have imported an flv video from a url. but when i publish it and go to the next frame the video keeps playing, even if im not seeing it.
How would I access the first element of this array first entering the frame. I want to get buttons[0], or brandingbtn, to be activated as of right now its not working.[code]
On rollout I need the already ongoing movieclip to keep playing until hitting the wanted frame. Upon which the timeline will continue from another specific frame. And this, to prevent my animation from glitching between start, hold and finish while quickly hoovering the mouse over the whole thing.
I have been looking around but couldn't find a good tutorial or solution to my problem. I have a slideshow type application (for my portfolio website). I have 4 "slides". I wanted to use video, I added it on slide #3, and it plays fine, control buttons seem to be connected, but when I click to go to the next slide, without pausing the video, it still keeps playing..., even though there is no instance of the flv playback on that frame. If I go back to the video slide, a new video starts on the top of the old one.... On exit from the slide I would like the video to stop. And on re-entering the frame the video would just sit there, after clicking play/pause it would resume.
How would I code this so that when entering a number 1-10 in the text field the MC on the stage will go to that frame? Ie if I enter a 9 the MC playhead will gotoandstop on frame 9. I have attached a .zip file to illustrate
I have one function that puts text in a text field and makes a button goto a url onRelease.The code is like this:
Code: item.onRelease = function() { myButton.onRelease = function() { getURL("http://google.com", "_blank"); } talk = this.txt; } the only problem is that the button doesn't work onRelease. i think that it is because there are too many functions there, but at the same time,
I am trying to create an AS3 Fla to score a quiz's results. The quiz is a separate swf that stores its results to a shared object ("G1"), and both the quiz swf and this new scoring swf would reside on the same website.
I've tried scripting the AS3 in the new scoring Fla but I keep getting error messages.
So far, here's what I have that doesn't work.
[Code]....
The goal is to open the scoring swf, populate some variables with the values from the SO, then (not yet tried in the script) apply some if/else conditions to show specific results based on scores.
i have As code with functions on frame 1-6 i want on frame 7 to have a clear code that will remove all the functions from frame 6. I need only the AS code to be cleared on frame 6 no where else... so the functions that are there no longer work in the rest of the animation.
I have a five mouse click functions, each with a different navigateToURL link, and each one appears on a different key frame. The probelm is that once the end of the swf is reached and it loops, it gets stuck on the last function and therefor only links to that last URL.Is there a way to reset functions at the begining? Or is there a better way to do this?Code from one of my keyframes:
First_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onMouseClickFirst); function onMouseClickFirst(e:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest('http://FirstLink.com'));}
I am working on learning how to work with functions in flash. I ran into a bit of trouble. What I am trying to do is make a function that creates a random _x number. Then have another function that takes that _x number and adds some easing to it. Finally I have a movie clip that will read that last function and move the object to the random _x position and ease into it when clicked. I think I have the basics of it done but I just cant seem to get it to run! I included a file so you can see were I am at with this. If anyone has a more efficient solution to this I am all ears. My hope is that with using functions I will be able to add this script to other objects in the movie more easily.
I have a menu consisted of horizontal strips that turn visible on roll over. One of them has a submenu over it. The thing is that when I roll over a sub item that has an action on it, the roll over function of the stip doesn't work and it disappears. If I put the strip over the submenu, it works well, but the submenu doesn't.
Without getting in to the specifics, I have a .fla file that has several functions that animate movieClips already present on the stage.
When I compile/view the SWF while working on it, the functions only "run" half the time. The other half of the time, Flash never runs the functions, it just pretends the call never happened. Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't. I have a feeling it may have to do with Flash's garbage collection, but I don't know how that works.
I have an array that I have set up that would go with a series of movie clips, and I am trying to combine them with functions that upload xml pictures--firstImage(), secondImage(), and so forth.Here is the array that I have:
ActionScript Code: var currentButtonId:Number = 0; var buttons:Array = [btn1, btn2, btn3, btn4, btn5, btn6]; function buttonRelease() {
[code]...
It enables and disables the movieclips depending on which one is clicked.
I want to make the xml functions (firstImage(),secondImage()...) go with the buttons in sequence. So once btn1 gets pressed the firstImage() xml function gets called.
Worked on this for a while, does the jpb, but because of the way I have done it, I can't get any removeMovieClip() functions to work on the new instances.need it cleaned up an in a way that I can use a removeMovieClip on it and have it actually remove them all.[code]I have almost the same code in three different frames, just using different instabnces as the basis for the duplication, and another layer that has a timer, when timer runs out, takes you to the scoreboard, now all was working well before i changed it to duplicate function, I just pulled them in from the library, but they weren't all the same size an crap (for perspective) But now ehn I get to the scoreboard, the darn things are still running.
When I test the site with the preloader.swf file I made for it, it loads, but then some of my button functions do not work in the site. When I test the site fla file everything works fine. I have been trying things out with the preloader code, but not sure what would cause this.
This is my preloader code: var l:Loader = new Loader(); l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent .PROGRESS, loop); l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLET E, done); l.load(new URLRequest("sample.swf")); prog_mc.stop(); function loop(eventrogressEvent):void { [Code] .....
I have a class file called "Character_Gen" that generates a lot of random numbers and stuff and displays them on the stage via text input boxes (for the time being), as well as scaling Movie Clips to provide a visual representation of the data. So far so good...But recently I have been trying to add buttons so that you can increment and decrease values (variables) in the class file and update the stage to reflect these new values visually. I have written a setter function in my class file that requires two parameters (stat and stat1), it should in theory allow me to enter any two variables from the class file and increment them at the press of a button. But it doesn't work, the values never change. However the aggravating thing is that it works fine if I don't use the parameters and write the method with the variables I want. I plan on having a lot of pairs so writing a function for each would really suck.
Code: //this is in my class file Character_Gen.as public var bravery:Number;
so I've worked with AS for a while now but I've always managed to avoid using external AS files so my knowledge of how to work with them is lacking. Right now I'm trying to work with the sample files from the vimeo API found a the bottom of the page here: It all works fine but I'm confused about how to call functions in these external files.I want to dynamically change the video being played from the fla file and have how to call the function VimeoPlayer from the fla file
