Jun 15, 2009
I have in root, two MCs1. MC is my content that a horiztional pan of multi MCs within the "content MC" 2. I have a MC that should function as a button each button linking to example "b3" for which b3 is on _root within "content MC" panel b3.PS. If I simply label the instance of the MC button "b3" this will play _root "content MC to that panel" However, I lose my animation on the button MCBelow is my _root code for (content MC)
Code:
var currentPosition:Number = contentHold.content1._x;
var startFlag:Boolean = false;

I just started making some simple banners for web sites. I got a new one to do this morning, and I was asked to make a button that says drag/pull here. as you drag/pull down, it reveals the layer below it. Also, as the button reaches halfway, it needs to go all the way automatically as well, so the users don't have to drag all the way down themselves. Is that something I need to do in actionscript

I followed Lee's video tutorial titled "ActionScript 3 XML Basics" to create a RSS Reader.It's awesome but I'd like to be able to have a button that uses the links from the XML to go to a site and read the whole story from the feed. If the Text Area component can be used to link to the whole story I'm ok with that too. I just can't figure out what code I need to use. Obviously it's AS3 and I'm using CS3.Here's the code that I have (it's straight from Lee's Video):
Code: Select allvar loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
lb.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, itemChange);

I have a Flash project which has about 90% of its code in the first frame, on a layer called 'actions'. the remeainder of the code is attached to several buttons throughout the project. I want to take the code attached to the buttons, and paste it into the first frame, 'actions' layer. what I want to know is how to do it, and still have the buttons function properly. This is in AS2, and will eventually be converted to AS3, when I get all the working code on the first frame. I don't know how to reference it, from the first frame of 'actions' layer.

I got four buttons that pull up images in a slide show. I want the fourth button to first pull the image in place and THEN shut down the movie clip. I thought this would be easy, but no. Unfortunately I canīt attach the fla-file on this forum. You could take a look at this:
[Code]...
It works in a sense. The movie falls into place when I click the button and the movie quits when I move the cursor. But it also means you might shut down the slide show involuntary when you move the cursor going for any of the other buttons. What can I do? I could point out that I'm not working with any frames here.

ok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.

im trying to do is have a button that shows an animation (created by a duplicateMovieClip function) with onRollOver and stops the animation with onRollOut. It works when i roll over and it stops when i roll out, but then it continues in a loop up to the point where i rolled out (instead of cutting off completely as i would like). Id be extremely grateful if you could tell me where im going wrong.

I made a script for the file that i am working with that hasbuttons located within 2 movieclips. I want that button to load andimage into a UILoader (problemLoader_mc) that I placed on the stageon the main timeline (the timeline that contains WeekBar_mc). Theproblem is that I don't know how to get to the root of the file tostart a new directory to tell my function to load the image i want.I have tried multiple approaches including:
MovieClip(root).problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray[0]
MovieClip(parent).problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray[0]
root.problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray[0]

I want to make a MovieClip called "menuText" go to and stop at frame 2 on the click of a button thats in another MC.
This "menuText" MC is on the _root, but i know you cant use "_root" anymore with AS3, although i think you can use "root".
This is what i have:
ActionScript Code:
home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickNextSlide);
function onClickNextSlide(event:MouseEvent):void{
root.menuText.gotoAndStop("2");
}
Whats wrong with that code? The button is called "home" by the way.

I am creating a flash site, and inside my frame label for lets say "pageA" the movie clip begins In pageA, fades up shows the content and stops(); alowing for the page content to be read.
After reading, the viewer clicks on the button inside the nav bar, to take them to say "pageB" i now want "Page A" to fade out and then root to "pageB
my thinking is that i insert a stop on the time line of the movieclip, then when the button is pressed it plays, lets say, the remaining 10 frames in the clip (the fade out), and then roots to pageB.
i just need a simple actionscript to do that, if there is an easier way, any one who could point that out and end my misery is a god/godess respectfully!

I want to tear my hair out and cry! I've just upgraded to CS4 and am trying to create a simple swf that consists of a root timeline with various frames, each labelled 'home', 'bio' & 'contact'. There are buttons on the stage with instance names and then on the first frame of my root timeline I have the following code (as well as the _root.stop() as actionscript on the labelled frames):
Code:
_root.stop()
homebtn.onRelease = function():Void {

I'm running flash cs4. I have an xml file I've loaded in but cs4 actually takes out the root nodes. So now I've been trying to add them back in when a button is pressed but I can't do it. I looked at creatElement and appendChild functions they seem to be what i need but I can't get them to work.

If I have a movieclip on the main timeline, and a button in that movie clip. How would I go about getting it to advance the main timeline to its next frame? I understand that in AS3 movie clips are not connected to the timeline in the same way as they are in AS2 but I dont understand why the following works, or if there is a better way?
stop();
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler1);
function mouseDownHandler1(event:MouseEvent) {
MovieClip(this.root).nextFrame();
}

I have some submenu buttons in a movieclip on the mainline. My first level of navigation in on main timeline. The submenus are grouped in movieclips on the main timeline. I basically used the same code on the main navigation for the sub navigation except the code for the submenus is in that movie clip. My trace statement reads the button is clicked (which was a quantum leap for me) but I know I need some kind of _parent code in there so it knows to go to label back on main timeline.[code]...

So I had an interesting request from a client the other day. Basically, he wanted the button (which looks like a sticker) to peel off as the mouse approaches the button. So from the outside of the hover point, it would peel a little. As the mouse gets closer, the peel animation would peel more (or less, depending on the mouse position) until it is 'peeld' off the page and sort of hovering above the background when the mouse is finally over the button.
Does anyone know of some custom classes that might achieve this? It seems like it would be making use of the new 3D in flash10, but I haven't had much time to experiment with 3D in flash.

i have my main timeline with all the code on the first layer all is good there. But then inside a movie clip that is inside another that plays an animation i have some more code to load an external swf.
the code works fine i have tested it but it does not seem to want to work when its put in the timeline inside a movieclip.
I know i can put it on the first main stage layer with all my code and it will work but i want it only to work after i click a button and that button has played its animation.

Situation:
- We have a Flash application located on a SAP EP (let's say ep.x.com)
- We have a SAP ABAP Application (Webservices) on a SAP WebAS
server (abap.x.com)
- Clarification: This is not about Flash islands / but a normal Flash application communicating with WebAS ABAP via WebServices
Problem: Due to the changed security policy in Flash 10 this scenario does no longer work.
- A crossdomain policy file on root level cannot be deployed on root level
- The WebServices http/s headers cannot be modified, since the WebServices are generated by the WebAS IDE.
Comment: Technically there is a way to patch a WebAS ABAP,but this is not a practical / acceptable way in a normal SAP WebAS infrastructure.
Conclusion:- The above scenario (Flash from EP content / WebAS ABAP as backend) is a quite normal scenario in the SAP world.
- SAP / Adobe always features the close relationship between their technologies.
Question:- What could we do?
- How does the Visual Composer works around that problem?

I have a root stage, and a MC that is called from the root stage.Now from that MC, i will called in another MC2, and I wanted to placed the MC in the center of the stage. The reason I could not use normal ADDED_TO_STAGE at MC and define the center is because MC is not place in the exact position of the root stage (as in x, y=0). So if I would target MC2 at MC stage center, it would not be the exact center of the root stage/screen.How can I called the root stage properties rather than adding MC2 into the stage?

How do you tell the root timeline to root.gotoAndStop(2); from the timeline of a movieClip added using addChild?In the maintime line I have
addChild(fade_eng);
and in fade_eng I have the following on frame 20
root.gotoAndStop(2);
this.gotoAndStop(1);
But I am getting 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method gotoAndStop through a reference with static type flash.display:Stage.

I'm trying to create a button with a bit of animation. So far, no matter what I do I can't get this to work. The problem is with Roll Over and Roll Out. if you look at the file I attached there's a glitch when the mouse goes over and out very quickly. (ONLY from the top and bottom, left and right works ok)

I'm working on a project where there's this girl standing still and she's supposed to jump to the front when clicked on, but she doesn't jump. She's set as a button symbol like such: [Up] standing still, instance is a png file [Over] Bends down and swings her arms repeatedly. It leads to a movie clip with another movie clip file inside and this works successfully [Down] When clicked on she gets into this position pre-jump. Instance is a png file

I have done an animation which includes a button that I want to use to start it. I've added action script to stop the animation on the last frame, I just have no idea what action script to put in to start it when the button is pressed. I have 14 layers + an action script layer. 7 of the layers are animated.
