ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling A MC From Another MC?

Aug 5, 2008

I've got two Movie Clips "MC1" & "MC2" on my main timeline with buttons that give them life so if i click on "MC1" then it plays the open and stops on the "up" frame the next frame in the movie is the "out" which plays the Movie Clip out. but when "MC1" is up and you click on "MC2" i want "MC1" to play the out frame. I'm guessing at this but is this anywhere close?his is the code attached to the button inside of "MC2"

Code:
on (release) {
if ( _root.MC1 = ("up"))

[code].....

A person can start any swf by clicking a button and then change the swf by clicking another button.

Is there a way to check if a .swf is running and only work when none are running?

Professional :: Controlling One Swf With Another

Aug 23, 2010

I have a site I am working on which has a Flash intro.  The other pages of the site hold a menu that's created in Flash.  For some reason my client wants the ability to go back and view the intro again, which is easily accomplished with navigateToURL.  HOWEVER the intro is broken into two distinct parts and I need to target the second part, which would require something along the lines of gotoAndPlay(500); or something to that effect.
 
What I am having problems with is how do I target a specific frame in a completely different movie, the intro, using a button from the Flash menu within the site.  I'll try to explain it a bit easier.  The top button on staticMenu.swf, which is placed throughout the site (aboutus.aspx, portfolio.aspx, etc...) needs to target frame 500 of mainIntro.swf which is embedded in default.aspx.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Controlling Mc From Another Mc?

Feb 23, 2011

I'm mostly a point-and-click user of flash. I'm in CS5 and have built a simple flash website (with A/S1-2) having a primary swf (content.swf) and other transparent swf (home.swf, contact.swf, etc.) that load in for each menu button. When another menu button is clicked, my A/S instructs to unload all mc's from level 1 and load in the next swf in that same level.My challenge. I need to have a button in "home.swf" go to, say, "contact.swf". How can this be done?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling One Swf With Another?

Sep 29, 2009

I have to control one swf file with anoter. The situation is as it follows: there are two swf files in my HTML page. One of them contains a movie clip, and the other - buttons, which must control the first one - for example play this movie clip, go to a frame in this movie clip and so on. Is this possible? Maybe there is a way to connect both swf files with AS and after that use the inner instance names.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling MC Inside One MC From Within Another MC?

Aug 6, 2010

I have three buttons I have built as MC's. In each on the MC's timeline I have another MC's with instance name voted01_mc, votecd02_mc, and voted03_mc, respectively. And each of the MC Buttons have instance names Q01_btn, Q02_btn and Q03_btn.

I would like to find a way to control the "visibility" of a movie clip inside one movie clip from inside another MC. I am sure there is a way to do this such as:

Q02_btn.voted02_mc._visible = false;
Q03_btn.voted03_mc._visible = false;

if the MC I wanted to make invisible was on main timeline I would do something like:

root.voted02_mc._visible = false;
root.voted03_mc._visible = false;

SO this would be inside Button MC 01 making the MC inside 02 and 03 invisible.

Dynamically Controlling Many Instances At Once?

Mar 19, 2011

i am trying to control 30 instances of a movie clip dynamically. the instances are as follows

ship1
ship2
ship3

[code]....

coming from php i would just set up an associative array like list array('speed'=>array(false,false,true,...),'weapon '=>array(true,false,....and so on I can not for the life of me figure out how to store this information and then use it as a variable name later.my end result should look something like this .. i just don't understand how to do this in as3 .. it seems unnecessarily convoluted.

Code:

foreach($upgrades['speed'] as $key => $val)
{
UpgradeScreen.'speed'.$key.visible = $val);
this would dynamically call

[code]....

i know the above is incorrect.I want to create this so that it is completely dynamic and the instance names can be feed in dynamically as the array or whatever is being looped.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling A MC From Within A Function?

I dont really know if I can put this into words correcly so I'm including enough code(AS3) to show what I mean.

Also, I should note that this code is in a MC that is on the stage where the other MC is.

Controlling FLV From A Different Area Of The Page?

Aug 19, 2009

I was wondering if I could assign seperate buttons to play, rewind, stop or pause an FLV in my timeline from a seperate area of the page like a remote control as opposed to using a skin in which the buttons would have to sit under the flv. Do I have to use an events listener? Does anybody have an example of the action script I could use. I am using version 2.0 PS. The flv is a progressive download.

Flash :: Controlling SWF From Javascript

Aug 22, 2010

I have a SWF embedded in an HTML web page and want to move to a specific frame when a trigger is clicked. But nothing happens when I click the trigger, as though the js just doesnt communicate at all with the swf.SWF is written in flash cs4 (a3)The link to the website is [URL]..I have read the text books over and over and researched high and wide on the internet and as far as I see I have done everything correctly but I cannot get this to work. The swf is very basic, just a green box moving accross a small stage. The desired gotoframe would make it cross at a lower height (just a dry run for a more complicated swf)

Actionscript 3 :: Controlling As2 Swf Playback

Oct 8, 2010

I am embedding a swf built in flash 8 into an as3 project. When I call stop() or gotoAndStop(0); on the MovieClip that represents an instance of the embedded swf it stops for a sec and then continues. Trying to call removeChild on the mc removes it from the display but the audio in the swf keeps playing. The swf, in this case must be embedded, I cannot use loader.[code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling MC's On Stage From Within Other MC's

I am trying to control a movieclip's visibility on the main stage from within another movieclip. I have read many forums and tried pretty much everything without any success.

Here is an example: I have two movieclips on the mainstage. one called: animate_mc another called: info_mc

Inside animate_mc, I have a button & a function that when pressed should hide the info_mc. I have tried: this.parent.info_mc.visible = false; stage.info_mc.visible = false; (_)root.info_mc.visible = false; To name a few of many other possibilities I have tried, but I still have not managed to make it work.

What I am trying to do is have the center content of my HTML page reload different textual content when you click on a button in the Nav, but not reload the whole page. The Nav is separate from the SWF content in the center of the page. Is there a way to have it so that when you click on one of the buttons in the Nav that it can tell the swf what fram to go to?
