If i have a movie clip on stage with instance name 'mc1' for example. how can i access this movie clip from a class im creating. Eventually id be able to access the movieclip via a dynamic name but need to get past this simple stage first.

Multiple Movie Clips On Stage - Buttons Not Working In Movie Clips?

Jul 15, 2009

I have multiple movie clips on stage (all in separate layers, of course) as well as buttons on stage to play each movie clip. There are buttons inside each movie clip. The problem is that the buttons inside the top layered movie clip work, but the others in the movie clips below don't.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Existing Classes Of Movie Clips?

Oct 18, 2010

I've got 100 instances of a particular class of MovieClip on my stage, and I'm trying to find a way to get functions that affect them all. The obvious way to do this is through their common class, but I'm having a lot of trouble finding out how to do it. Most of the tutorials I've found are about creating custom classes or creating new instances of classes. This isn't what I want to do, as I've already got all my instances on the stage already.

There are actually several things I want to use this for, but I'll just mention one for the sake of brevity.

I want to set the alpha of each MovieClip to 0 when I click on it. Here's the code I'm using for a single MovieClip at the moment:

ActionScript Code:
boxcover1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removecover1);
function removecover1(evt:MouseEvent):void{
boxcover1.alpha=0;
}

While this works perfectly, it means I'm going to have to repeat it 99 times, once for each MovieClip, and later on I need to do some more complicated stuff with it that 99 copies would make near-impossible to pull off. I'm hoping that by using the class ('box_cover') I'll be able to have this apply to every MovieClip on the stage.

ActionScript 1/2 ::got 2 Movie Clips On The Stage?

May 27, 2009

Suppose I've got 2 movie clips on the stage. box_mc and triangle_mc. I want to set up a way so that whenever I trigger the event, such as pressing a key (like

if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){
//stuff that activates it
}

[Code]...

if I push the Space key again, it would start from the top (1) and repeat the sequence. The sequence would otherwise stop at 4. Previously I've been using counters inside an onEnterFrame such as counter = counter +1; if counter > n, counter = n; etc. This seems tedious and I'm hoping there's a better way to do this. I do not understand watch and timer functions of actionscript (they never seem to work for whatever project I'm occupied with).

Flash :: Movie Clips On Stage?

Aug 20, 2009

I have used Flash on and off over the years but I've decided to hunker down and learn it in earnest. We have cs4 at work and I am having this problem.I checked out the differences between a graphic symbol and a movie clip, and it seems that the movie clip has some distinct advantages. But the main disadvantage is not being able to see what happens on the stage as it plays. How can I get around this limitation? Why does it even exist in the first place? I understand that scripting can complicate how it plays, but for example if I am making a straightforward animation, but parts of it depend on other parts that are in separate symbols, how can I see what is going on at a specific frame on the stage overall?

Professional :: Movie Clips On The Stage?

Feb 8, 2011

If I create a 2000 frame Movie Clip and then drag it onto the stage of my main scene... shouldn't it work/play through  it's entirety from within one frame of the main scene timeline? IOW I'm having to make the layer on the scene stage that i drag the movie clip onto 2000 frames long in order to see the nested 2000 frame movie clip play.Seems like in the past I could get Movie Clips to play and loop and what not from the main scene/stage without doing this.

Attaching Movie Clips And Moving Them On Stage

Jul 25, 2010

Firstly, I want to be able to push the space bar on my keyboard during a swf, and for a movie clip to appear on the stage. This is what I have so far:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){
_root.attachMovie("Explosion", "Explosion"+i, _root.getNextHighestDepth());
_root["Explosion"+i]._x = _x;
_root["Explosion"+i]._y = _y-20;
}}
but its not working....

Secondly, I want A movie clip to spawn in the middle of the stage, then randomly travel outwards to the edge of the stage, then dissapear. And this needs to happen over and over, with the same movie clip travelling to a different place each time. This is what I have so far :
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
timer = 0;
i = 0;
a = 0;
b = 0;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Placing Movie Clips On The Stage?

Feb 14, 2010

I'm using AS3 to place movieclips onto Flash's stage...

The code I have looks something like this:

Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

[Code].....

Currently when the player moves their cursor over the movie clips that AS3 is placing on the stage, they disappear. However the movie clip is not actually removed from the stage, it simply plays to a blank frame in its timeline to give this illusion. How do I tell Flash to remove the movie clip from the stage rather than just give the illusion that it is gone?

When the player moves their cursor over the movie clips that AS3 is placing, I want the movie clip that is attached to the cursor to gotoAndPlay certain frames of its timeline.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clips On The Stage On The First Frame Of An Fla File?

Feb 15, 2012

i've got some movie clips on the stage on the first frame of an fla file. The mcies have event listeners to navigate to differnet frames on the timeline. Some of the frames to which we navigate have FLVPlayback components while others dont. i'm using some code for soundchannel in this fla, to create an array and load differnt music at a btn click, so that when we go to a certain frame we get some music. This works, no overlapping music.
 
The issue, that when we navigate to a frame with an flv that has an audio track, the the music that's playing on a different frame just wont stop. And another issue, when we navigate from the flv frame by clicking the mc that listens for the sound channel, the flv audio track wont stop playing and we get cuckaphonia.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Checking If Several Movie Clips Exist On Stage?

I am making a game where you are attacked by a waves of zombies. The first 'wave' is just one zombie and when this is off stage (either gone passed you or been killed) i use this code to check if it's gone and then instigate the 2nd wave of enemies (ie, change wave2ready variable to true)

ActionScript Code:
if( _root.Zombie1)
{
wave1Timer = wave1Timer + 1;

However this sets wave3ready to true when any one of Zombie 2 3 or 4 are destroyed.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Center A Movie Clip Within Two Other Clips To The Stage?

Jul 30, 2007

I'll start off by saying I'm using Flash 8, Actionscript 2.0, and exporting as FlashPlayer 6.I'm trying to do this long landscape with a movie clip labeled, "mainMovie", let's say it's approximately 3600 x 600, while the stage/document dimensions are 800 x 600 .I have script on it so that moving the cursor to the left or right edge of the stage, the entire movie clip shifts left or right and through the rest of the landscape, similar to the 360 vr tours you see for some real estate sites online.On the main stage, I have that movie clip called, "mainMovie". Inside "mainMovie", is another clip called, "singleStrip", and inside that clip, I have other smaller movie clips through the landscape which are labeled and consist of random stuff, like shapes and items and stuff.

Everything works fine. The extra step that I am attempting is that I want the user to be able to scroll through the clip, "click" on an item, and then that item zooms into the front center stage and plays a small animation about that item. These items that are found throughout the landscape are movie clips themselves with script on them to be recognized as buttons.My problem with that is even though the center of my stage would be x=400, y=300, since my mainMovie on the stage scrolls from left to right, when I put in code to tween the item to a center position, that position is only set to the inside of the movie clip and not the center of the stage. I need to center a movie clip within two other clips to the stage.An example of the path of any of those items would be sort of like,

[code]...

That didn't work. It shifted it to a different position, not being the center of the stage.At another point, I tried to fake it out, placing a movie clip of a red ball on the main timeline in the center of the stage, and changed my code to:

[code]...

This didn't work, either.I do have other code that affects the motion scroll of the mainMovie from left to right, but I don't think this is the problem, I could be wrong.
