Short description what I wan'a do: 30 frame long movie clip (my_mc) and a button (button_btn). When button rollOvers the clip should play (how to do that I know ) and when on button RollOut the clip should play backwards from the same frame where it stopped.
View 1 RepliesI'm not sure if this is possible or not, but could you use an AS to play the timeline backwards? Or play a MC backwards?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to tell flash from within a movieclip to start playing a specific frame within the main timeline only after it has finished playing the movieclip backwards. I can get the movieclip to play backwards fine but it's getting the main timeline to start from frame 1 which doesn't work. I have the following code on the first frame of the movieclip (which is called video) but it doesn't seem to do anything.[code]
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to make the timeline run backwards through the timeline, so that I don't have to waste resources on reversing my scene intro animation later on in my main timeline? (imagine the intro is zooming into a book, then the reverse effect zooming out of the book).
I have been wondering this for a long time, but I assume that this is not possible.
SO im currently working on a project similar to one that can be viewed at [URL] (my inspiration) and i have everything set up like the following.

Whats the action script for a button to go backwards on the timeline?

Im working on a project that allows the user to pan left and righ along a picutre (360deg) I can pan the movie right as it just moves frame by frame along the image timeline but when i try and pan left.. i have problems with when it gets back to the start of the timeline it just stops.
View 3 RepliesI've got a strange glitch goign on in one of my flash files. I load a set of menu items from xml and format their text using TextFormat at the time of loading. This works great until I start jumping around in the timeline. Working forwards in time it maintains its formatting, but if I jump backwards at all, it loses its alignment and defaults to Left Side.
//create the function that will load the xml info into the dynamic menu text
function CreateMenu(side_xml){
//makes the xml file easier to navigate
[Code].....
I had the idea of a circular menu, and when the user clicks on a menu item, that one rotates to the top, and becomes highlighted (hopefully with easing). I've searched around here for reversing timelines, etc. but can only find ones that go to the next set frame.How do I get it to skip past the menu items in between? For example if #1 is at the top and I click on #4, I want it to skip past #2 and #3.
View 6 RepliesI am looking to explode an image backwards. Example, I have an image and at frame 1, Alpha is zero. At frame 20, the image is at Alpha 100%. From frame zero to 20, I want to have an exploded view come together by the time it reaches frame 20. I am reading this on web, and I don't have the 'Insert - timeline effects - explode' on my file menu. Is this a plugin that I have to install? This is the site I am reading. [URL]
View 4 RepliesProblem: I have an flv I would like to play backwards.
Attempt: I have used the code below to play an MC backwards as well as forwards with success in the past. Now I have an flv which I must play backwards and I thought embedding it entirely in an MC would be fine. The code works, but when ti performs the backwards portion, well, it runs very slowly.
Question: Is there a way to play the embedded flv backwards at full speed using the method I tried or do I have to load the flv into the swf at runtime?

View 5 RepliesI created a MC that will play when you rollover a button and play again on rollout. Here comes the problem. If you rollout this MC before the animation comes to stop, it will stop at the stop point and won't continue playing until you rollover again which then looks (and actually is) as a bug.
View 3 RepliesIn my project i have a mc called theArrow, which contains 85 frames of animation, and a roll-over region called mouseRegion.
When the mouse rolls over the region i want theArrow mc to play backwards from the point it is at, and when the mouse leaves the region i want it to resume playing forward again.
here is my script:
Code:
theArrow.addEventListener(event.ENTER_FRAME, playBck);
function playBck(event:Event):void {
this.theArrow.prevFrame();

to play a movie clip backwards in AS? If yes.. how? ty
View 4 RepliesI 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 need to play forwards/backwards to target frame(or second) on my videoPlayer when I push a button. How would I do this?
Not sure how to tween the seek() property. I have TweenLite, which normally works great! But just not sure how to do it here..
