i am new to this site and also to AS i am trying to create a an expand and collapse functionality in which i want a movie clip to shrink and disappear when i click on a button and reappear when i click it again the solution that i came up with was i animated the movie clip shrinking and disappearing and now i think playing the timeline in reverse will solve the other half and i also added the stop script at the 1st and last frame of the movie clip.
i tried a lot and a number tried and tested the no of scripting techniques posted on other threads
I have this script to play a movie clip. What do I write to get it play in reverse?
function fadeUp(event:MouseEvent):void { buttonFadeOver_mc.play()
I've created a slide presentation when you click the next button the playhead advances to the next frame plays a movie clip and stops (the stop() is at the end of the movie clip script). When you click the previous button I would like the playhead to move to the previous frame, play the movie clip in reverse and stop at the beginning of the clip.
View 25 RepliesI have a movie clip which I want to play part of it in reverse when I click the button.
For example before I click the button, the movie clip will play from frame 150 to 155 then stop. Then when the button is clicked, the movie clip should play from frame 155 to 150.
Is there a way to do it using ActionScript 3?
I have movie clip buttons, that on rollover playthrough from frame 2 to 15, then rollout play the animation through til the end to return to the 1st frame. Is it possible to have the movieclip on rollout play through in reverse to the frame 1 and reverse the animation?
Because sometimes you may get to frame 8 or so, and it keeps playing even know you have already rolled out of the movieclip. Is there any code for this or an .fla file someone could give me.
Does any know how to play a movie clip in reverse. I have tried the copy frames and reversing them but that does not want to work for my animation. I am just looking for a simple script that when someone mouses over the invisiible button the playhead moves forward and when they mouse off the playheads moves backward from the frame its on.
I want to create a movie clip to play forward when the mouse hovers over it but backwords when the mouse rolls off. This sounds easy enough but I having a few problems getting it to work.
I do not want to clip to jump to a position before changing direction.
I am having problems getting the clip to go backwards on the rolloff if the foward movement has not been completed.
I thought that I could just use script to send the clip forward by one frame on roll over (frame = frame+1), and opposite on roll off but it does not appear to work - i think it may be much more complicated than this.
I have a college project to hand in within 2 days. I'm making a website and what I want to achieve is a button that plays the movieclip (which is a piece of paper going onto the stage) and when you click it again it reverses that clip. I've tried loads of things and only got code that allows two buttons to reverse and go forward.
View 2 RepliesWhat code is their to play a single frame containing movie clips once and then play the next frame and stop
View 26 Repliesi want it to be stopped when tjhe page opens then when you mouse over the clip plays to frame 10 and STOPS while the mouse is over it then when the mouse is no longer over it i want the movie clip to play in reverse and stop
View 2 Replies[URL] i assume it's a series of frames with slightly different photos of the razor. when you play the movie it looks like it is spinning. my question is, how do they get the movie clip it to play forward when you move the mouse in one direction, and backward in the other? is it something like mouse over to the right and left (i'm bad with the direction code)??
right now i have a version that will play the movie clip (it's a button w/ only a hotspot) on mouse over and it will stop when the mouse os off the hotspot, but i can't get it to work like the headblade example. because i don't know the right code to play forward and back etc on mouse moves.
I have a button that when clicked starts a movie clip(a box enlarges from very tiny to large).That works fine. How do I make the same button reverse the movie clip when clicked again?
View 13 RepliesThis is a very simple thing I want to do: show informational popups when an area of the screen is rolled over. I was able to get this working in action script 3 with MouseEventListener and the visible =true/false property but can't seem to get it working correctly in AS2.
View 2 Replieshow to control a movie clip to play, say every 3rd frame instead of every 1? Thus creating the illusion it is playing faster.
View 3 RepliesInitially I want to control a movie clip (play, pause) using two buttons. I placed a movie clip(square) and two buttons (btnPlay, btnPause) on the stage.and created Engine.as assigned to stage.
/// Engine.as ///

import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]...
I am using CS3 with Actionscript 2.0I am trying to get a play / pause button to control a movie clip.I have placed the MC on one layer and the button on another layer.The button works great.All I need is the AS to control the timeline of the movie clip.
View 1 RepliesI use attachMovie to call movie clips succesively on the stage. I use a forward button to slide them in progression but when I want to go back in the same order everything gets messed up. You can see the swf playing here, [URL]..I numbered each frame so you can see when clicking on back button it gets messed up.
// Each of the button functions here call the add_page() function and pass the Identifier of the page that they will display b_0.onRelease = function() {

I am using ActionScript 2 with following code on a button to play in reverse on mouse click:

I'm using the native Tween class and have a several tweens which make a button, when clicked, fly up into the corner of the screen. Then some time later yoyo() that tween to bring the button back to where it started.
The problem is that we have a replay button that replays from certain points on the timeline.
I want that if on the "screen" (not flash screens just our term for the range of frames that correspond to the timeline between those certain replay points) the user clicks replay that the button will always play the tween backward, i.e., flyout from the upper corner back to the "start" point.
Since there is no reverse() method or playInReverse() the only choice seems to be yoyo(). And one would think that fforward() followed by a yoyo() would make it always play backward. But I can't make it seem to work.
"Is there a way to ensure that a tween, regardless of how it last player or is still playing, can be made to go to the end and then play backwards?"
I wanted to make a preloader do something else besides just fill a bar. I wanted to make a movie clip play during loading, but I also wanted it to play and finish in time with the loading. For instance, if I created a movie clip of a boat slowly filling with water, and it was the preloader, my movie would load as the boat filled and when the boat was full the movie would be ready. The water fills as fast as the movie loads.
View 6 RepliesI have a very simple fla i built, all i need is the hover "over" stage to play this tween. On the keyframe I made it a symbol, movie clip. In there all the tweens are set exactly. It seems if you wanted motion on a stage,you would just put that clip on the over stage. I uploaded the fla file: [URL]
View 6 RepliesI simply have a rectangle vector image of a landscape and I want it to zoom in when I play it...and I guess stop at a certain point. Not a clicking function or roll over, just when I start up my swf file or go to that specific scene I want it start zooming (gradually, not fast either)
View 6 Replieshow they make this reverse play animation...
the one that [URL] did on their previous site design...
I'm working in CS4 on AS2.
I have a series of buttons that when clicked go to certain frames which all display different content. I have a unique movie clip on each one of these frames that has an initial play in, followed by a loop, and finally a play out for when they leave that frame.
I have it so the movie clip plays in and then loops, but I want the movie clip to play out when a user clicks a different button that leads them to another frame and other content. But because they can click the buttons in any order they like I can't specify the play out to the buttons.
Can I make the current frame's movie clip play its "play out" part when I switch frames?
I have a series of buttons that when clicked go to certain frames which all display different content. I have a unique movie clip on each one of these frames that has an initial play in, followed by a looping animation (the character walks in, then loops waving or something of that nature), I would like the movie clip to have a play out animation (character walks off) when the user leaves that frame so that when they go to the next frame the new movie clip can play in (new character walks on screen).

I have a listener which traces the Y value of mouse:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,f);
function f(e:MouseEvent){
trace(e.localY);
}
I need to make a movie clip play when the localY value is less than .25 of stageY, or even less than 150 would work.
