View 3 RepliesHas anyone successfully used hitTestObject on objects that weren't on the stage?
I have game code that works fine when the objects on are the stage, but replace "stage" with "this" (the game object that covers the whole stage) and it doesn't work.
here is the fla file - [URL] I have an attached movie on root level that movie has a button inside it and I want to tell that button to do some function. simple----BUT I want to put the action on the first frame on the root and not inside th MC. here is the code Iam working on and the same is in the fla file in the above link.
[Code]...
explanation of the above code-- but1 is the button on root that tells clip1 to attach on blank MC(thats also on root) clip1 has the button inside it call but2 and tried to tell that bloody but2 to open that the URL link but its not doing so NOTE - I want to put all the action on the action on the first frame and not inside th MC.
I am not sure what is the difference between externally and dynamically loading pages, but I have created swf files for each of my pages and then a main page that those swfs get loaded into. The problem I am having is: I have transitions between my pages and my movie clip will animate when it is in the page swf, but not when it is in the main file.
View 0 RepliesI know that I should use pythagore to calculate the distance, but I need to calculate distance between 2 objectfs that are contained within 2 different movie clips. Something in the line of :
xdist = Math.round(follow.p1._x - photo1_mc.p1._x);
ydist = Math.round(follow.p1._y - photo1_mc.p1._y);
distancefromthis = Math.round(Math.sqrt((xdist*xdist) + (ydist*ydist)));
But distancefromthis contains always the same value, maybe it's because _x is calculated within the movie clip, so I need to find the photo1.p1._x in the stage.
I've created a button and placed it inside a movie clip. I've added the below script (as2) on the button however when I Test Movie, the button does not work.

On the about page of my Flash website, I wanted 7 buttons to navigate to various labels. I just finished the first button. I made it while I was inside the about_mc. It worked well but would NOT navigate. I took the button OUT of the Movie clip and made a separate layer on the about page for buttons and pasted it there and it worked perfect. When I made it inside the mc, is there some different code I should have used other than the standard code for making a button navigate to a frame. I built an addeventlistener and a function. BUT they only worked when the button was "ON TOP" of the mc NOT when it was INSIDE the mc. I have a transition tween on the about_mc and therefore the button does not tween when it is on TOP of the mc only when it is inside the mc.
var aboutTween:Tween = new Tween(about_mc, "y", Elastic.easeOut, -200, 146, 3, true);
laborLaw1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, laborLaw1);

I have a movie that loads multiple swf's... Some of these have buttons inside of movie clips, they don't work when the swf is loaded
View 1 Repliesokay so what i cant figure out is...(still earning as3)i have these 2 buttons that are nested inside of movie clip........i havent added any code to em yet or nothing....ALL I LITERALLY did was, i have MC-a and went inside it, created 2 button symbols, and tested movie just to see how it'd look but when i rolled over the buttons they didnt work. they dont have roll over/out/press/hit states at all...it acts like its a regular graphic.i took the same buttons, copy/cut/paste on the main stage and work just fine.

View 3 RepliesI have a button instanced "howto_weblink_btn" which is located inside a MC instanced "HowTo_maininfo_mc". I would like to write a code allowing me to access this button from the main navigation menu. Here is what I come up with:
HowTo_maininfo_mc.howto_weblink_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_openJTV);
function onClick_openJTV(event:MouseEvent) :void {

I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

How do I align a movieclip, which width and height is user-defined, inside another object (this one is static, though). Top-left alignment is easy, x=0 and y=0, but what about center, center left, bottom left, etc? Math(.round) i suppose, but how?I want an object (static) inside the movieclip (user-defined) to stay aligned to, for instance, the top right corner, similiar to the minimize, maximize and close buttons at the top right of your browser.. The height and width data is pre-defined by the user in another file.But that does probably not make any difference...

View 1 RepliesCan someone tell me how to make 2 different objects/buttons do the same action?I am building a band flash site.I have a music player with basic controls/buttons: stop, play, pause and volume bar.I have a video section and few videos in it. (They are on youtube and I am using this lightbox script for flash to activate them so they play on top of the site / not going on youtube).I want to make that video thumbnail link automatically stop the music (or pause it) and also to open video: I've tried some stuff but I am not too good at coding.[code]
View 0 RepliesI've worked with Flash for about a year now and I'm trying to make a game where you can control an object with the arrow keys and if you touch a certain object (lets say a wall) you go to a frame where it says "You lose".making the actionscript for the object and the wall colliding.
View 1 RepliesI can't even get a stop action to work.Ok I have a simple little tween of a box moving across stage. The instance name of the box is "box_mc" the tween ends on frame 25 on frame 25 on an actions layer I have the following actionScript3 written:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
box_mc.stop();
I have a stop(); action on the last frame of my main timeline, but it's not working. The movie just keeps on looping.
I've tried:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,myFunction);
function myFunction(event:Event) {
stop();
}
but that doesn't work either. Neither does this.stop();
here is my code
buttonPlay.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMusic);
function playMusic(evt:MouseEvent):void[code].....
but when i export my video the button doesnt do anything. the instance has an instance name buttonPlay, and it is a movie clip..........
I have a movie load an SWF into a movie clip, in that SWF there is a button which tells a movie clip to .play, the movie clip inside that swf is called "clip". i have on that button _parent.clip.play();
View 2 RepliesI have a movieclip with about 50 other movieclips inside it and I want to set all their visibility to false (I can't do this to the parent because I will need to eventually just show one of the movieclips at a time). Is there any type of method I can use to apply, something like mymc.allchildmcs.visibility = false or mymc.mychildmc[i].visibility = false;

View 1 RepliesI have been searching Google trying to find a solution to my problem with no joy, so I thought I would post in here to try my luck.I have created a small movie which can be found here, [URL], the problem I have lays with the button at the top of the movie titled "Click Here to Create Your Canvas". I have 'Publish Previewed' in Flash and the button works fine - changing on mouseover and opening link, however when viewed in HTML the button changes as intended but the link does not open on release.
the Action code used is as follows:
[Code]...
I'm trying to get the code below to work, but no such luck:
Code:
var newsAry = new Array("news/040720.html");
for(i=1; i<=newsAry.length; i++) {
this["btn" + i].index = i;
this["btn" + i].onRelease = function() {
getURL("javascript:openNewWindow(" + newsAry[this.index - 1] + ",'newswin','height=400,width=450,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes')");
}}
I'm trying to get the 'newsAry' Array to work in the javascript getURL action. When I use a regular html page in there the page works just fine.
Whenever I add a drag action to a movieclip and add constraints it doesn't work properly and the movieclip after its pressed jumps to the top of the screen.
View 5 RepliesI'm not sure how to describe what I'm seeking, but basically I have a movie loaded in a clip and when the user clicks a button, I want the loaded movie to perform some kind of action (fade out or whatever) while the new movie is loaded.
Probably something simple, but I'm an idiot,
Is it possible for action script to import audio files into the flash movie while the movie is playing. (Instead of manually importing a file from within the flash application) Or some way to load an audio file located at a remote url, that is not preloaded, and play it.I've searched through the action script reference guide, but have found nothing to do the job.
View 3 RepliesI have a flash code where i am loading an AS 2 SWF inside AS 3. The thing is if i put the AS 2 SWF on same domain its working fine but if i put AS 2 SWF on different domain it loads the SWF properly but the "stop()" written inside the AS 2 frame doesnt work... and it keeps on playing all the frames continuously...
Here is the loading code..
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
if(Security.sandboxType == Security.REMOTE){ context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain };
var objLoader:Loader = new Loader();var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("SomeURL.swf");objLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event .COMPLETE, onSWFLoadComplete);objLoader.load(mRequest, context);
