ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash - How To Tell What Frame You Are On In MovieClip

Mar 13, 2012

How do I tell what frame I'm on in a movie clip? For instance I want have a preloader set up so that the animation of the preloader plays all the way without jumping around. according to the bytes loaded. Here's the basic gist of what I want to happen:

bytes_loaded = math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
if (loader_mc.currentFrame < getPercent*100){
loader_mc.play();
}else{
loader_mc.stop();
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Bi-lingual Pathway - Call Up A MovieClip To Play From Frame 10, And Not Frame 1?

Mar 8, 2005

I'd like my Flash site to be bi-lingual. What I have currently is a Flash movie with an empty Movie Clip which then allows users to go from movie to movie. The movies are all small movieClips that are loaded into the empty movieclip on demand. There is some video and text in each of the 30 movieClips.
Here is sample of code that i'm using to call up next MovieClip.

[Code]...

My solution for the bilingual version is to create a separate frame with the French version + video and then when user presses the French button they are directed to that frame. This way I could easily create the French text within the one movie. however i don't know the Actionscript code to call up a movieClip to play from frame 10, and not frame 1.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Movieclips Aware Of What Frame Open Another Movieclip To The Same Frame?

Jan 4, 2011

I was having trouble even knowing quite what to search for so I figured asking a question in a forum would be the best way to go. Currently I am making an application where I have multiple movieclips of equal duration on multiple frames. For example, movieclip_1 is on frame 1 and is 40 frames long. There is currently a scrub bar that scrubs through the 40 frames of movieclip_1. On frame 1 of the Scene there are also buttons with the actions to gotoAndStop on frame 2, frame 3, and frame 4. Frame 2 contains movieclip_2, frame 3 contains movieclip_3, and so on. The functionality of this is that it shows medical conditions progressing from different angles and when a button is clicked the display shows a close up of just that one angle. As expected, without any actions on the movieclips navigating from one frame to the next brings up the proper new movieclip but they always begin at frame 1. What I would like to be able to do is somehow have my movieclips know what frame they are on so when a button is clicked the application would go to that frame and open that movie clip to the same frame as the previous one that was just navigated from.

Mar 27, 2012

I got a MovieClip filled with a lot of others clips... When I change de X or Y value of this first MovieClip the frame rate slows down for during 1 frame. For exemple... I created a counter that returns around 30 mseconds every frame, but when I do this X or Y change the return is around 400 mseconds... When I try to fill the first MovieClip with less information it goes faster, about 100+-200 mseconds...

Flash - How To Bind Event For MovieClip On Next Frame

Mar 30, 2011

I have flash project (ActionScript 3), which has a several frames. Each frame contains some unique controls (buttons, textInputs, etc) with unique ids. I want to add event listeners to these controls:

this.gotoAndStop(2);
trace(AddResource); //null !!!
AddResource.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,AddRes); // Error

I don't know, how to define time, when AddResource will be loaded, after gotoAndStop. I tried to use setTimeout - it works sometimes and makes unwanted delays. So it is bad idea, in my opinion. Each frame has a lot of controls, they might be changed in future - so, I don't want to use this way (Get MovieClip in another frame). If it is possible, I want to keep ActionScript code in *.as files, not on timeline (flash cs5: when I change frames in a movieclip, event listeners pointed to one object in the previous frame are removed).

AS3 :: Flash - Inject A Frame Script Into A MovieClip?

May 11, 2011

I was wondering wether it is possible to inject a frame script into a MovieClip and to get a reference to the mc the script was injected into from the function used as the frame script.There is a MovieClip named mc. It has a frame label 'end' somewhere and we want to add a stop() to that frame without adding code to the MovieClip itself (keep in mind that this is just an example). So here is the code (we could place it on the main time line of a test movie that has the mc on the stage):

var end:int=0;
for (var i:int=0;i<mc.currentLabels.length;i++)
{
if (mc.currentLabels[i].name=='end')
end=mc.currentLabels[i].frame;

[code]....

When the playhead reaches the frame labeled "end" in mc the function doStop() will execute. This function keeps its original scope however. So to stop the mc we need to specify mc.stop(). 'this' points to the object where the function doStop resides so this.stop() won't work. If we wanted to use the same function for multiple mcs we'd have to get a reference to the currently targeted mc somehow.

Flash :: Way To See Final Frame Of MovieClip From Its Parent Timeline?

Jun 9, 2011

I work on a truckload of flash banners and have progressed more into dispatching events from the final frame of a MovieClip that would contain an object (or collection of closely related objects) animating and then listening for them from the parent timeline so that I know when to continue the main animation etc.In the animation I'm working on currently, there's a car built from blocks over time (the blocks fall from the top of the banner to make up the car); this is all contained within one MovieClip (to make the resizing easier - all I'll have to do is move the entire MovieClip around).The problem is that when I place this MovieClip onto the timeline, it's represented by its first frame (which is nothing because no blocks have fallen yet). This makes it hard to work with because I can't really tell exactly where the car is going to be when the animation is done and so on.Is there a way to have the final frame of this MovieClip visible from the outer timeline?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Playing A Certain Frame In Another MovieClip (timeline)?

Feb 3, 2011

I was wondering if someone can help me. I have some difficulties playing a certain frame in another MovieClip. I have two MovieClips, MovieClip(content) and MovieClip(about_page). The about me button is placed in MovieClip(content) and I used the following code to go and play MovieClip(about_page) that is placed in the timeline:

about_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, myrl1 );
function myrl1( event:MouseEvent ):void
{
gotoAndPlay("37");
}

But now when MovieClip(about_page) loaded i have a button that must go back and play a certain frame in MovieClip(content) I used the following:

close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,close1 );
function close1 (Event:MouseEvent): void
{
gotoAndPlay ("29");
}

[code]....

But for some reason it never goes back to Movieclip(content) and I get the following:

TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at content_fla::about_page_101/close1b()

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Movieclip Wrong Position New Frame

Jun 26, 2011

Basically I have a load of movieclips on one frame, and a load of the same type on the second frame. However, when you're coming from the first frame to the second frame, Flash decides to place the new movieclips in the same position as the old movieclips (from the first frame) rather than where I placed them in Flash.

I vaguely remember seeing something like this before, but I can't for the life of me remember the solution. Any of you guys know what's happening here?

Just a note, it looks as if giving the movieclips instance names stops it - but this isn't really plausible for me as I could have hundreds of movieclips on each frame..

Flash :: Closing A Movieclip And Return To Scene One (and First Frame Label)

Jun 21, 2011

I'm incorporating Flash for the first in my site [URL] it should a simple navigation but it has had me stuck for a while. I would like users to click any button on the stage (listed or thumbnails) and open a MC, then close the MC, using a close button , then return to Scene One, which is frame labeled "home".

I am able to successfully open and close the Movieclip but I am not directed back Scene One. When the MC closes, the thumbnail buttons are inactive.

Here is some sample code from The last frame of the MC actions.

stop();
closeVogue_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickVogue);
function onClickVogue(event:MouseEvent):void
{ gotoAndStop("home");

Flash :: Get Button In Movieclip To Go To Another Frame Inside The Same Movie Clip

Dec 16, 2011

I have several website pages set up on different frames inside the content (which is a movieclip) of the home page - which is on frame 1 of the main timeline. The content movieclip name is contentMc.

My About page is at frame 10. There is a button on this page (called btnAbout_contactpg) that I want to make jump to my Contact page (frame 50) - all of which is nested under the main contentMc movieclip.

This is the pathway on my contentMc (where all of my pages are located), just in case that doesn't make sense: [URL]

I have looked at several different instructions online, but none of them seem to work.

EDIT:

I am also trying to get a button on my gallery page to load an external image, but it is not recognizing where the button is either:

btnGallery_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showPic1);
function showPic1 (e:MouseEvent) {
var target:Object=e.target;
var parent=target.parent;
my_loader.load(new URLRequest("image-0.jpg"));

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Movie That Attaches A .as Defined MovieClip In The First Frame Of The Timeline? ?

I have a Flash movie that attaches a .as defined MovieClip in the first frame of the timeline.In my MovieClip class, I attach a background image movie and a couple of buttons and whatnot - basically building a screen.If the user clicks a certain button on the screen (the button is defined entirely in actionscript and isn't on the flash stage at all), then I want to pop up a Window component.In my class file, I define _win:Window; but do not instanciate it initially.I defined the button's onPress event inside a load listener - this is that definition.
