I've got a movieClip that's scrolling across the stage that loops nicely (kinda like the many cloud animations out there).
I've set the clip up to stop it's scrolling on a rollOver, and start up again on the rollOut.
My problem is that after the rollOut the loop doesn't work. The movieClip just keeps travelling.
Code:
blue.onEnterFrame = function() {
blue._x -= 2;
if (blue._x<=-0) {

I have made a movieclip and gave the frame this actionscript:
------------------------------------------------------------
var keyListener:Object = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyDown = function() {[code]........
it moves fine and stuff but i was wondering how can i restrict the area in which the movieclip can actually move ? my flash file is 550px X 400px and i want to make it so that it can only move in 300px X 200px of the file if you understand ?
I want to make a scroller that can be just a scroll bar, no arrows, another one with arrows and another one that scrolls by itsself very slowly, on mouse over of a news "item" it stops scrolling...
Only thing is that I want to include vector graphics in this scrollable area an so forth.As far as I know you can't mask dynamic text at all.
my problem is that I have made a scrolling text. Now I want one word inside the scrolling text to be a link to another page.
I tried this with an invisible button on a second layer above the word, but the button does not stay on its place on different screens. Is there a solution. Looks to me as a basic thing every web designer ought to know.
I just got the trial of Flash Cs5 and haven't used Flash since MX back in 04-06. Having an issue with buttons now in context of a scrolling text area. My code is set up as such:
[Code]....
Where up is the button to scroll upwards and down is...(you guessed it). Maintext is the movieclip in which my text is which each frame being the text "scrolled" further. My issue IS: This was working just fine UNTIL I added "Over", "Down", and "Hit" frames into my buttons (whereas previously they were just single frame arrows), and then when previewing my flash the cursor doesn't even recognize the buttons as such, and nothing happens if you click on either... If I got back and delete the over, down, and hit frames, BOOM, problem goes away. This seems very strange to me, I never had a problem like this in MX.
I've been trying to do is to move a string of thumbnails - thumbHolder_mc - incrementally (like every 386 pixels) left and right, controling it with arrow buttons. Code below works like a charm EXCEPT when I try to stop the tween motion on either end.
I tried everything - _visible = false, enabled = false, delete function, etc etc, nothing works. In the my script below, buttons get disabled, but never recover. Function never comes "back to life", which is what I thought it was supposed to do:

I have a vertical thumbnail menu on the side of my site. When I move the mouse up or down it will scroll accordingly...however it's anywhere I move the mouse up or down on the page. What series of code is neccessary to assign this scrolling mouse event ONLY over the menu area?
View 7 RepliesI have a scrolling MC that moves L&R according to the mouse position L+R of center and I need to create a hit area using actionScript's hitTest so that it stops scrolling when you aren't over it.
View 3 RepliesI put a text area component on stage and set the vertical scrolling to Auto, so now when ever I have to much text the scroll bar pops up, but the problem is that I can't get the scroll bar to always be on the bottom, so when ever I add more text I always have to use my mouse and drag the scroll bar to view the latest info, is there a way that I can see the latest update without having to manually scroll down?

ive created a character loop for two characters that are in a walk cycle. when a button is pressed both characters change animation, now ONE of the characters is doing what i want it to, which is, change from walk to aim, then back to walk. but the other character is going from one animation to the second, and then just continuing to loop the second animation.

I am working on a gallery, the contents of which is arranged into categories and sub-categories. So, each category has a folder and sub-folders.
I have an xml file in the root directory which I'm using to create a menu. When the visitor clicks a button in the menu, the relevant set of images will appear (only one set at a time).
But, the thing I'm confused with is this...
If each sub-folder contains an xml list of images, should I
a.)load all the xml files right away? Into an array, for example, which will hold all the data? If so, How can I load xml files in a loop? And is this the right approach if there are a lot of files to include? Or,
b.)Is it possible to load the xml from each button and have it override the previous xml?
The code below loads an xml when the first button is pressed, but after that it does nothing!
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;

Let's say I have ten widgets that have ten items that need to be turned off. What am I doing wrong here?
Code:
for(i=1;i<=10;i++){
var tempWidget = ["widget0" + i];
trace(tempWidget);
tempWidget.item._visible=false;
}
The trace returns the correct value yet the loop doesn't turn the ten items off. Why?
i was looking into if there is anyway to work with sounds using actionscript?Basically im looking for something that
* Plays a sound in the library on loop
* stops that sound
* mute that sound (so it's still playing but cant be heard)
* unmutes that sound
the idea is so i can spread out this in scripts instead of in the frames.
i'm trying to load a bunch of swfs and attach them to a movieclip from the library which is then placed on stage.I'm able to do it, but for some reason only the last swf in my name is being added into my clip (from the library).Would anyone have any thoughts as to why this is happening?
ActionScript Code:
var swfNames:Array = new Array("1.swf","2.swf","3.swf","4.swf");
var l:Loader = new Loader();

I have a movieclip button with the following actionscript (which I have on the main timeline above my MC layer):
movieclip1.onRollOver = function(){ movieclip1.gotoAndPlay("normal");
}
movieclip1.onRollOut = function(){ movieclip1.gotoAndPlay("hitout");
}
movieclip1.onPress = function(){ movieclip1.gotoAndPlay("over");
}
This works perfectly! My movieclip button takes up the whole stage but I don't want the whole stage to be my hit area (which right now it is). I was searching and I found this actionscript: hit._visible = false;
this.hitArea = hit; The tutorial said to make another layer inside my MC, then add that code. But when I play my movie, I can still see my green square (which was supposed to be my hit area) and it does nothing!
I'm new to the forum my name is Chris. I'm currently working as a Graphic Artist for a company called TransTech Systems in Schenectady, NY [URL] I registered today Im trying to figure out. I need to disable the hit area of an object thats part of a movieclip button. Im trying to create a single image light box effect in which the blown up image closes when you mouse off the thumbnail. Here is a link to my movie [URL] If you click on the pic of the gauge you will see the image blows up, and the background fades to a transparent black for better contrast between the pic and the page. I need the background fade effect to not have a hit area otherwise the rollout action does not work.
View 1 RepliesIm using this script on various movieclips in a game

I use this so when characters move around movieclip it detects where it is and put the appropriate clip on top (so a character can move infront and behind objects). Theres a problem. The script works GREAT and does what its supposed to do. The problem is that every movie clip i put it on carries over to the next frame when the timeline is furthered. It doesn't help that its a clean frame (or even several frames ahead) the movieclips are still duplicated to the new frame and so on.
