ActionScript 2.0 :: Play Movieclip Backwards Without "stumble"
May 4, 2010
I am creating an animation for mouseover. The problem is that when you put the mouse on the edges of the activated animation it "stumbles", trying to decide whether to play next clip forward or next clip backwards.
I got this code from taco:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// if the mouse IS over the clip ...
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
[Code]....
But it doesnt solve the problem that I am describing with the "stumbling".

Is it best to try to play a movieclip backwards or maybe use some other technique like reversing the frames and creating a new sequence and the play that one?
or is there an easy way to play the frames backwards?

Problem: 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?
if I have to load the flv into the swf at runtime to play it backwards
var rewindMe:Boolean=false;
vid_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, everyFrame);
function everyFrame(event:Event):void {
if (rewindMe==true) {

I've made this as a "prototype", getting used to how the game will move and such, and I've got it moving as I want it, but I can't make it move backwards when I press the back button The whole thing is inside a movie clip, I just want it to play backwards when I press the back button

I 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.

In 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();

I'm trying to play a movie clip backwards on rollout, but can't get it to work.
I have a main movie clip, which contains a button and a movie clip. Since the area of main movie clip is larger than the button hit area, I'm trying to create the reverse effect from the button.
[AS]on (rollOver) {
forside_movie.gotoAndPlay (1); // play movie forward
}

I'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?

i have 4 main sections of my site and i would like it if the user is deep into section 2 and wants to click a button to go to section 3, section 2 actually reverses every tween/action it has ( breaking down ) then goes to section 3. i would prefer this rather than an abrupt shutdown section 2 and section 3 starts.

I 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..

I've made the outline of a site in AS3, on one of the pages it has an area that shows some text and images. If you click on the right arrow, the current info flys off to the left and the new info comes on from the right. This is done by just having a movie clip with a load of stops and code that says "absorbentInfo.play();" so it plays forward to the next bit of info.What I would like is a way to make it play backwards to the previous stop, so that it could cycle indefinitely either way.Code for the next button below.with the previous button.
Code: Select allnextButtonAbsorbent.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, nextButtonAbsorbentOver);
nextButtonAbsorbent.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, nextButtonAbsorbentOut);

I 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]

I hope someone will know a solution to this problem: I have a movieclip with a tween in it, which moves a object up and down.
I have 2 buttons on my _root: One which had to move the object up till the end of the movieclip when pressed so it will stop after reaching the end of the tween. Or it stops playing when the button is released.
Another one doing exact the oposite, it moves the object down when pressed. And should stop at the beginning of the tween. This button also has to stop when the button is released. The button playing the movieclip backwards doesn't work as it should be. It doesn't reverse the movieclip, it just jumps to a previous frame.

I'm re-designing my website in Flash CS4. There will be 6 buttons when it is finished. I have created 6 movieclips that fades in the text when you click on each button. What I'm trying to do is make the movieclip play backwards when a different button is clicked so the text fades back out before the new text fades in. I think I've nearly got it. I googled the effect and found the below action script. I've put it on the first button to see if it works, but I get the error messages at the bottom.
WelcomeButton.onRelease = function() {
startRewind (29);
};
function rewindMovieClip (targetFrame) {
[code]....
I keep getting these error messages:
Scene=Scene 1, layer=Welcome, frame=142, Line 1 - Statement must appear within on handler

Can a button play a movieclip if it lives within another movieclip? Let me explain: Buttons in a map key ran route animations on the map. Code for button (accessed by selecting button and F9) ..reads : on (release) { gotoAndPlay("BusRoute_375");}
[Code]...
All layers and consequently all route movieClips that relate to the map as well as the stop codes for the individual route animations now reside within that MovieClip which sits on a new layer above the map key layer. However, the key buttons no longer run the route animations. What should be done so that when clicked they still play the route MovieClips. Its like the button code cant see the layers it once refered to, now that they are in a movieclip.

I am trying to create an interactive graphic. Basically, it's three squares layered on top of each other, with a large square in back, a medium square centered in the middle of the large square, and a small square in front centered in the middle of the medium square.
When you roll over the medium square, say, it expands to almost the size of the large square and some text fades in, and the small square on top of it fades away. When you roll off of the medium square, it goes back to it's smaller size, and the small square fades back in.
Currently, I have the actionscript in the movieclip to make the medium square get larger and smaller (and the text fade in), but I need to somehow reference the instance of the small square movieclip to hide it when I roll over the medium movieclip.
My actionscript for the medium square activity, currently:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
[Code]....
how to have this rolling over action get rid of the small square and then bring it back on roll out.
