I'm working on Flash CS3, ActionScript 2.0 on a project assignment for my class. I'm working in 6 different scenes within the one file. I have Scene 1 on a loop, but need a button that is clickable within the loop to move the program onto Scene 2. I have converted the image I want to a button, but I do not know what to do next in order to make it link from Scene 1 to Scene 2.
View 5 RepliesI have a infinite music loop and I am trying to have btn_start trigger a fade out on the music along with its original gotoAndPlay.I have two scenes, "opening" and "animation". btn_start and the following code are in the "opening" scene.the fade out will play along with the first couple seconds of "animation" since the gotoAndPlay connects to frame 1 of "animation"Can this be done? lights of how to proceed this.
stop();import flash.net.URLRequest;import flash.media.Sound;var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("subtle.mp3");var snd:Sound =
new Sound(url);snd.play(0,
[code].....
1. Created a flash banner ad on the first scene. Take note they're all under frame one because I used movie clips for the animations (Movie clip ends on the 100th frame and not sure if I need to add a stop(); code there or place the gotoAndStop command). Anyways, moving on.
2. I created a new banner onto another scene which by now I have 2 scenes. Just like scene 1, all the animations and such are all under frame 1.
3. Placed an action script on the first scene to play the next scene.
gotoAndStop("scene 2", 1);
4. For the second I placed the action script:
gotoAndStop("scene 1", 1);
Output:It looks like my banner ad is flipping one scene from another without stopping. I know my action script is not correct. I know you folks are far more experience in flash, so I implore your wisdom.
I know this is very noob, but I need a simple AS move and loop. Move an object across the stage and once out of site, loop and start over again? It needs to be a slow and endless loop.
View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip (scrollBar) in my site that contains a line of other movie clips moving across the stage (scrollContent1-4). Only two of these are visible at a time, so I have lined them all up, repeated the first two at the end, and have the animation looping.
I want each of the scrollContent1-4 clips to be clickable. It's all fine on the first loop, but once the clip reaches the end and returns to frame 1 the clips are no longer clickable.
whenever I set my sound to stream and continue to make a movie with multiple scenes. The audio and video get disgustingly out of sync sometimes even off by 30 seconds. I just started an animation its only 10 seconds long with two scenes and the AV is already off by about 5 seconds. Ive worked around this by avoiding scenes altogether but i really don't want to have another 5000 frame scene. I discovered this problem in Flash MX and Im quite annoyed that it still has't been fixed 3 years later!
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way to stop a button from being clickable. Lets say the user has been idle on a site for 5 minutes. I want to flash movie to through up a translucent cover on the buttons and make the buttons not clickable.
View 3 RepliesSo I got this AS3 game thats completely written in Flex without the .fla file and I want to put a clickable button that links back to a webpage to the mainmenu screen.
In the IDE and AS2(which is what I usually work in), it was just simply:
Drag button onto the screen Convert it into a button symbol and then do this:
Code:
on(release)
{
getURL("http://www.urlhere.com",_blank);
}

I am creating a survey in flash to survey people's opinion about the temperature in a building. What I am hoping to do is have a scale which the surveyee can click on (see attached image) with 5 options from Too warm, warm, just right, cool, and too cold, and record where on the scale they click.
For example, if "Just Right" were correlated to an answer of 3 and "Warm" was correlated to an answer of 2, and a user were to click halfway between the two, I would want the recorded value to be 2.5. If they click closer to "Just Right" I want the recoded answer to be 2.8, etc.
It seems that the quick and dirty way I can think of doing this is to create a serious of invisible buttons over my scale which can then tell me where they click, but then I am limited in the granularity of the answer and it would just be a pain to create that many buttons.
what i am trying to achieve:i need to create a navigation MC that, when rolled over, opens up to reveal a few buttons. (and when rolled off closes the navigation MC - basically a "play backwards" MC)
[Code]...
it is in fact MC created with duplicateMovieClip("ButtonTemplate", "Button1", this.getNextHighestDepth()); and on (press) event on it, so it acts as button. On clicking it, it moves playhead to a frame 10 where it should not exist while template button is placed on layer that has frames only 1-5 and it loads a MC that covers it and even has command
_root.coveringMC.swapDepths(_root.getNextHighestDe pth());
I still get "hand cursor" on hovering covered button and is still clickable?
I am using an xml driven photo gallery as part of a site, with the index page on one scene and the gallery on another.i can get the scenes to go forward and back with the GotoAndPlay function, but when i go back from the gallery the xml images are still visible.AS script for xml portion is too long to post in message.
View 1 RepliesI've got a little flash video I made with multiple scenes, frame by frame animation, some text, sound etc. I figured I'd add a pause button so slower readers could read the text. And it ALMOST works.I took the code right out of an actionscript 3 tutorial on the adobe tv, worked fine when I did the tutorial, but that had only the one scene.And as far as I can tell it works fine in my video: in the first scene and then doesn't. I'm wondering if it has to do with button instances or something but I've tried everything I can think of: copy pasting code into the next scene, changing names. But I get a duplicate functions error with that and it doesn't work at all!Does anyone know how to get this to work with more than just one scene?
Here is the code:
play();
pauseButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER , pausePlay);
function pausePlay(e:MouseEvent):void
{
stop();
}
And then the same again with Mouse out and resume play and play in the brackets.
I'm a bit new to actionscript 3 so be patient! I'm trying to createa button on the stage which links to a different scene (scene 2) when its pressed, and moves the playhead to a different frame for mouseover (shows button summary) the problem I have is that the jump to a different frame (via framelabel) works flawlessly, however when I try to jump to another scene, it doesnt do anything when the mouse is clicked.
View 3 Repliesi'm now doing an interactive in flash, the problem is...my button does not want to link to my other scenes. Is it because that my button is in a movie clip? what can i do if i do not want to bring my buttons out from the movie clip??
View 6 Repliesi have a few scenes that run all together by clicking on a button to get to the next scenes. instead of the next scenes coming and going super fast, i want to have some neat type of animation that string them all together when you want to get to the next scene.

Got a button (imported png defined as a button in the library).The button is dragged onto the stage, given an instance name "btn".Clicking the button fires an eventListener which is doing all the right things, except...
btn.enabled = false;
...only changes the cursor from a pointing finger to an arrow. What?! It is still clickable.My intention is to disable the button so it cannot be clicked. But it can still be clicked. Not good.How do I disable a button and prevent it from being clicked?
I want to add a button with a cross to the header of the accordion which can be clickable. that means i want to display a message when the some one click on that button. i go through many of the samples in the web but couldn't get it done.
I tried with also a CanvasButtonAccordionHeader, it shows the button but when i click it, it didn't give the message although i created the click event handler.
In the first I have a button and if somebody click on that button it goes to the second scene.In the second scene I remove the button with an image so it is not clickable.How to leave this button, but make it not clickable at all?and the second case is what if I am using just one scene in flash and want the button be clickable only once? How the actionscript will look like?
View 3 RepliesI generate a button at the location of the mouse cursor.It is not clickable at that moment, I need to go off and on again to be able to click.
View 4 RepliesI'm having issues with switching scenes for this 6 scene short story, between scene 1 and 2, the text (thats in a text box from my character) in my project, slides in and out just fine... At the end of the code in the 1st frame, I added a code snippet (click to go to next frame and stop), and it goes to the next frame, code then tells to click button, then the text switches/slides in and out fine, the horse(another character) comes into the scene fine... Then again at the bottom of frame 2 now, I add the same code snippet to the click button, its suppose to go to scene/frame 3, where the text slides in and then out, but it's giving me output errors, AND I noticed when I press the (click to go to next frame and stop)snippet again, it inputs a totally different snippet(click and play next frame), which I manually change back to the other snippet, and even make sure that its suppose to go to frame 3, and then it still gives me output errors: Error:

For some reason the code in scene 1(frame 1) to scene 2(frame 2) is fine. Its the code from scene 2(frame 2) to scene 3(frame 3) thats giving me issues. I'm trying to keep the button I created on the bottom right corner of the scene, to be the one button that clicks from scene 1 through 6(dones not need a previous button).
im using cs5 and trying to change scene on button press. the code im using is :

it brings up no errors, but does not change the scene.
How can you switch between scenes by f.e. pressing a button I thought of using loadMovie but then I have several .swf files and I'd like everything in 1 swf file
View 7 RepliesI have a replay button on the last scene of my .fla and I want - when clicked - to
replay the .fla from frame 1, Scene 1.
I've used the following code:

on the last frame of "as" layer, but nothing happens.
I am making a game in flash cs5 as3 and what I want to happen is for when I click on a button that brings out my movieclip I want to beable to click on another movieclip and have it go to a certain frame, and I want the first movieclip to be deleted. Right now I have it so that if I click any where on the stage then it gets deleted, and thats good, but I want to beable to play a different frame in the movieclip i am clicking on.heres my code so far:

I want newketchmc to be able to click on the newmovieclip and newmovieclip goto a certain frame while newketchmc dissapears.I know I need to use an event listener but Im not sure where to put the event listener or how to even begin codeing the function that I want to do.
without using alpha 0% in Flash5
this is the problem.
i want to make a button invisible. however, since using alpha 0% will create colordifferences with 16bit colors, I want to use _visible = "0"; (like you would on a MC).
one option is to put a MC inside the button and make that invisible, but obviously you can't without an onClipEvent handler, but if you do so, it doesn't work.
puting the button inside a MC is the second option, and with the _visible command it works... however, it also stops the button from working.
is there a way to get a true invisible button that still remains clickable????
I'm using AS3 in timeline. I have an input text box and a button. I would like to navigate to scenes using passwords and a submit button. On timeline I have four labels: intro_1 to intro_4. The input text box is called main_sections. The submit button is called main_btn. Both text box and button are on a layer that goes from intro_1 to intro_4. PROBLEM The only scene I can go without errors is section_4. All other scenes show error

I'm trying to figure out how to make a configurable wrapper or container file that I can simply pass variables such as
wrapper.swf?m=movie-to-load&u=url-that-button-goes-to
It seems simple enough, and I'm half way there ( I can get external movies to load ) however the transparent button is over my head ( read: I'm a complete noob ).[code]...
I've tried hardcoding a url into getURL as well but it doesnt' seem to be recognizing that there's even a button there.. is that because there's a new movie being loaded?
I've got a job for an expandable MPU in AS2. When you rollOver the MPU it expands and has a rollOff button covering the whole of the expanded part. But I have also got a Close button on the expanded panel that you have to click to also retract the panel. what the code is to allow you to rollOUT of the expanded panel part but onto the Close button without it retracting before you click on it.
