ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Seem To Get Nested Movie Clip Actions To Work?

Apr 30, 2011

I am making an interactive map of the US.When you hover over a state it zooms in and cities pop up.When you click the city it should a page, for now just google.I have the basics for the first state, California.The zoom works and the cities pop_up.However, when you click the city the link doesn't work. The cities are instances of a movie clip, city.I placed them inside the CA movie clip in their approx locations and named them SF_mc, LA_mc, SD_mc respectively.Here is the code.i added some comments.the FLA is attached in zip as well.It is CS5 file but I'm more familar with AS2 so yea.This is the first frame of the CA movie clip, actions layer

Code:
stop();
/this is all zoom stuff
this.onEnterFrame = function(){[code].......

In the first frame the cities are not on the stage yet. They are add later when the state is zoomed. SO i thought maybe that is why it not working so i tried duplicating the code on the frame after the zoom where i add the cities and it is still not working...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Actions On Movie Clip Inside Another Movie Clip (menu) Won't Work

May 15, 2009

I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clip On Main Timeline Receiving Input From Nested Movie Clip

Feb 23, 2011

I've got a main timeline .swf file called "blank.swf" which contains nothing but two blank movie clips one called called "pproduct", the other called "ppalette". In the script frame of this main timeline I use the simple "Loader = new Loader();" method to load a URL of an .swf file into the "ppalette" movie clip. The "ppalette" movie clip contains several color chip buttons, each of which use the same Loader method above to load an external .swf into a clip. Here's what I want to do: let those color chip buttons, when the "blank.swf" file loads, be used to load an .swf movie into the "pproduct" clip on the main timeline. I'm wanting to be able to swap depths with various movie clips which will take out the movie which has the palette, but I want whatever that palette has loaded in the original "pproduct" clip to stay there.

I really need some help this is a problem I have been having for about a month or more. I am still a AS3 newb and this is my first time using classes. The other classes I have work with everything else, Im just having trouble with the movie clips that are inside movie clips.

what bugs me that in EVERY tutorial on creating lets say, a menu they teach you how to animate things and everything but theres never an explanation on how to actually connect buttons or movie clips with a certain action.

I want to do the most basic thing.. to make a certain animation/movie clip appear in the document after a certain button is pressed.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference Instances From Movie Clips If The Movie Clip Referencing From Is Nested?

Mar 23, 2010

It's me again and I'm running into a problem. So, I have this movie clip that is nested inside multiple movie clips. I want to tell Flash to perform an action when that movie clip hits another movie clip in the main timeline. It's just collision detection for a game using the hitTestObject code. I was thinking of using MovieClip(root), but that won't work since it's nested so much.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Movie Clip Button Behaviour Affected By Actions

Jul 16, 2009

I have a movie clip button which I have created to provide me with colour tween. An "up" label for the upstate, "over" for the over state (colour tween) and then an "out" label where I have the colour tween back to normal. This all works fine except if i place an action on that button in the timeline, e.g.-

myBtn_mc.onRelease = function(){loadMovieNum("swf/movie.swf", 99);}

explain why this behaviour on my movie clip button won't work if an action such as this is placed on it ? (no tween just the up state colour)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Link Movie Clip Actions To Sound Events?

Sep 10, 2011

I'm trying to make a program for an e-commerce project I'm involved in that will allow our users to listen to sample clips from a given CD. I've listed all the tracks in an array called trackList. Here's the code to play a given track from that array:

function playTrack(event:MouseEvent):void{
switch(event.currentTarget.name){
case "track01":[code]....

The event target that I've bolded is the given movie clip button that the user has clicked; at frame two, the button turns yellow. When the clip is finished, the button should return to frame 1, but I can't get that to happen.

I suspect I need to put the event listener to make the button's color change back on the sound channel (sndChan), but I don't know how I could write that function so that it will apply to which ever button happens to be active.

Nested Movie Clip Not Playing?

Aug 14, 2009

I have a movie clip (that includes a preloader and video elerments) that I created and made a .swf file from which I then imported in my main movie. I then place this .swf file (which is listed as a movie clip symbol in the library) onto the main timeline. I put an action to stop the main timeline at the frame where the nested movie is placed and expected to start. When previewing the movie, the nested movie doesn't play. I see the preloader (in scene 1 of the nested movie)  appears for a second but the movie doesn't play.
 
Any specific action command needs to be define to make the nested movie play?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Basic Invisible Button Movie Clip Frame Actions Not Working?

This action should allow for the on click button to navigate to that specific frame, or image, but for some reason it is not working.

Professional :: Button With Two Actions - Pull The Image In Place And THEN Shut Down The Movie Clip

Aug 17, 2010

I got four buttons that pull up images in a slide show. I want the fourth button to first pull the image in place and THEN shut down the movie clip. I thought this would be easy, but no. Unfortunately I canīt attach the fla-file on this forum. You could take a look at this:

[Code]...

It works in a sense. The movie falls into place when I click the button and the movie quits when I move the cursor. But it also means you might shut down the slide show involuntary when you move the cursor going for any of the other buttons. What can I do? I could point out that I'm not working with any frames here.
