ActionScript 2.0 :: Make LoadMovie Work From Both Button And Next / Previous Command?
Feb 13, 2006
I have a photographer's portfolio site in the works. I'm using loadMovie connected to thumbail buttons of each photo to show a larger version of the photo. Here is the script[code]...
Now the photographer would also like to have a next/previous arrow buttons so the user can click through like a slide show. Is there a way to have Flash know what movie is currently loaded and based on that information go to the next or previous?
It works with a movieholder and the loadMovie command. It has 9 buttons, one for each picture, and they work. There's also a previous and next button to navigate through the pictures, there the loadMovie command gives problems. Here are 2 lines that are used in the previous button:
I have created an interface that uses a lot of the loadMovie command using levels. Once I have loaded a movie on say level 3...in that level 3 movieclip I will have another navigation that will load and then use the loadMovie command to load movie on level 3 as well. It loads it correctly but the back button that would contain the unloadMovie(3) command isn't unloading, say if the user wants to go back.
my program is i can choose several movie to load and the movies are save in an array.i choose movie 1 , 2 and 3.Movie 1 was loaded. After i click 'next 'button, movie 2 will be show .Beside that,if i click 'previous' button, movie 1 will be show.i facing a problem that my previous button is not back to my previous loaded movie but is trace my choices in arrays backward.The next problem is, my first movie load to the second movie load will be a bit lagging. but the rest 1 is ok..
Within that same MC is a button that tells it to close. However, I run a trace command to it and nothing happens. It seems like the onPress nested in the onEnterFrame is over-riding my button on(press).
Am creating a two page document in flash cs4. Each of these 2 page documents have links to a learning resource on a web server.All I want is for the user to be able to navigate to and fro this two page document. Infact, I want to be able to click on a NEXT button to go the the nextpage and PREVIOUS PAGE button to go back to the previous page.
I've been digging around looking for a tutorial on how to do a next and previous button in ActionScript 2. What I've found is quite elaborate, but all I really need is a next and previous button without all the unnecessary animation.
My project has a menu. When you click on it, the content movieclip with the external image and text objects appears, along with the next and previous button.
I'm wondering how to make it so that when you click on a menu button, like for example, menuObject_3, it goes to menuObject_4 when you click on next, or menuObject_2 when you click previous?
I am using an xml file containing text and an two image (a thumb and a large image). I have the whole thing working (the asl file, my document class and my xml file). I am now trying to make a next and previous button which, when clicked, will navigate to the next or previous nodes in my xml file. I have a next button with an instance name of nextBtn and a function for that button named onNextBtn (its at the very bottom). How can i write the code so that on a mousedown or click the next node (the info and large image) is loaded?
i'm trying to make a button that when held will go to the previous frame, pause for 0.042 (24fps)seconds and then loop again until the mouse is releasedso something like thisI think know the first bit of code from much forum trawling, but have been unable to find anything further.I am an almost complete newb to programming, having online done a tiny amount of vb several years ago,just wonderingtranslate this following script into as3, and also point out if it won't work.
stop(); Rewind.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, RewindEvent); function RewindEvent(event:MouseEvent):void
What is the command to jump to the last frame of the previous scene.E.g.: I have three scenes: sceneA, sceneB and sceneC. An element of the last frame of each scene links to sceneZ. Now I want a button in sceneZ that links either to sceneA, sceneB or sceneC depending on where I came from. prevScene() or prevFrame() doesn't work. I jump to another Scene and I don't know why.
As shown in the example... I have entered an action to load a movie when I press a button.It works fine but the original swf was made at 800 by 600 when I need it to be 400 by 200.Is there a way to have the video loaded smaller using some kind of width and height line to the command above?I don't want to have to go redue the swf I am loading in...In the swf, I am working on this for class, so It is not finished or have any real sense to it, other than what is required by the teacher
ok here is my problem (i will explain it to the best of my abilites)i have 3 buttons which each load 1 seperate SWF into an empty movie clipg. servicesbutton loads services.swf into contentsMCthat is fine that is working fine my problem occurs when the loaded movie button is clicked on again... it resets the loaded SWF back to frame 1... how can i make the loadmove command abit more cleverer? like dont load the movie if its already loaded?
My site has a picture gallery. It works with a movieholder and the loadMovie command. It has 9 buttons, one for each picture, and they work. There's also a previous and next button to navigate through the pictures, there the loadMovie command gives problems.
Here are 2 lines that are used in the previous button: Code: _root.site.alles.movieHolder.loadMovie("images/1.swf"); Code: _root.site.alles.movieHolder.loadMovie("images/"+(fotovariabele1-1)+".swf");
I get the following error with that button: Error opening URL "file:///C|/school/multimedia/VOLLEDIG%20NIEUWE%20SITE/images/NaN.swf"
I know nothing about a Nan.swf. I don't understand why these lines don't work in the previous button, because the 1 button (the button that loads image 1) also uses the first line, and that works. I know only very basic actionscript, but the code of the previous and next buttons are supposed to be correct except for those lines with loadMovie. In publish settings is actionscript 2.0 set.
my program is i can choose several movie to load and the movies are save in an array... For example: i choose movie 1 , 2 and 3. Movie 1 was loaded. After i lick 'next 'button, movie 2 will be show .Beside that,if i click 'previous' button, movie 1 will be show. i facing a problem that my previous button is not back to my previous loaded movie but is trace my choices in arrays backward. The next problem is, my first movie load to the second movie load will be a bit lagging. but the rest 1 is ok.
i am trying to write an image gallery using the loadMovie comand, loading jpegs into a blank movie clip the thing is, all the tutorials seem based around issuing the loadMovie command as you press a button to actually view that particular picture what I am trying to achieve is to have maybe the 1st and 2nd image of the gallery included in the flash movie and these load up and show instantly but whilst the viewer is looking at these the swf is busy preloading all the other images in the background. The idea being that images are loaded faster than the navigation that takes place so when the user clicks on the 3rd image it is already loaded and displays instantly and so on and so forth question is, how do i achieve this ? Do i still use loadMovie but have one script at the 1st frame that loads say all 20 images each into a different empty movie clip ?
I have the following which works fine just out side of the loop statement:
loadMovie("icons/test.jpg", "pIcon0.Icon");
But inside the loop statement no image shows up.
I need it in the loop statement because eventually the code will call the jpgs out of an array based on the loop variable. And put them in a movieclip number by the variable also.
I have various movies clip within a movie and my back (mc = arr2_mc) and next (mc = arr1_mc) buttons are on the main scene.This is on my main scene on a first frame
when it goes back, it goes back frame by frame without stopping but I want it to go only to previous Scene. instead of going to previous frame.Do i have to create a unique button? which i did but i didn't work?
I have this movie [URL] its for a mates building company ok here is my problem (i will explain it to the best of my abilites) i have 3 buttons which each load 1 seperate SWF into an empty movie clip eg. servicesbutton loads services.swf into contentsMC that is fine that is working fine my problem occurs when the loaded movie button is clicked on again... it resets the loaded SWF back to frame 1... how can i make the loadmove command abit more cleverer? like dont load the movie if its already loaded?
I have a HTML stageholder, this calls a "mainMenu.swf" which essentially controls my site. This "mainMenu.swf" has three buttons: intro, portfolio and contact which are all individual movies. So far, all good... When I have clicked into the portfolio section a 3x3 grid loads with nine buttons, one of these buttons loads a preview page for four movies, when I load one of these movies it plays fine. What is the path to get the loadMovie command to jump back to the 3x3 grid page from this movie? Basically, what is the command to jump up a directory when using loadMovie?
I want to load a movie loadMovie ("target", _root....) and so on. My question is can you target a specific scene in the load movie command?? I have a movie with a button that loads a new movie into level 0 so it replaces the first movie. Now in the new movie I have a button that unloads the new movie and loads the previous one. But it starts it off at the veru beginning of the movie. I want it to pick up where the first button click took place.
I am trying to make a sprite button with graphics and can't make it work. I have successfully added text fields so I know the path is correct. I suspected my code was correct and confirmed it should be, after reading several tutorials showing the process for creating sprite buttons with graphics. Anyway, I imported nearly every class on Earth, but certainly everything which needs to be. Stage is gray and 800x600.The graphics code by itself with appear, but not when linked to the sprite. Also, the sprite won't appear no matter what. Another interesting piece of the puzzle: nothing will trace, not even objects such as textfields which actually appear and function on the stage when I text the code.
public class ContactClass extends Sprite { public function ContactClass() { var home_btn:Sprite = new Sprite();[code]....
I'm new to Adobe Flash and especially new to Actionscript. Could somebody give an example and explain how to make and "Ignore *this* command if..." style command. Here's what I want to achieve:I have made a button (I may have done it in an odd way but it works) that moves when the mouse hovers over it and then moves back when the mouse moves away. I plan to put the finished product into Dreamweaver and have tried what I've done so far and it works. The problem is that if I move the mouse away before the first animation of the button has finished. It doesn't reach the *Mouse Out* command and then just sticks/stops in the bit where I have put a *stop* command.Basically, what I want is a way to ignore a command if something happens earlier on (such as the cursor being moved away).I've tried to explain the best I can without actually screenshotting it and copying commands.
i am trying to to do the following. I have 2 buttons on a page.when i click the first button it should just display the image i want it to.when i click the second button it should display the other image i want to display.
