View 11 RepliesI am making a flipping page book in flash and have had to create sections in different movies because it kept crashing when i tried to have all the pages in the same movie. I have 3 movies 'page flip4', 'pageflip4-2', and 'page flip 4-3' . I have used the code below to go (flip bacwards) from 'page flip4-2' to the frame label ''backflip'' in 'page flip4'..This works fine
Code:
on (press) {
loadMovieNum("page flip4.swf", 1);

im making a sort of a game and depending on what u choose u may load 1 of 3 or 4 options of movies into a specific level for each option. Meaning: the different toy hands are allways loaded on level 3, no matter which u choose and so on. At the end i need to make a list of the choices the user did, so i need to know if "hands_blue.swf" is loaded in level 3, and if so then push."hand blue" into an array. Im trying this on the _root frame,but no matter what option i take, i allways get the same option:
Code:
list=new Array();
if (_level(3)==="hands_blue.swf") {
list.push("Selecci�n: hand blue");

I have a swf movie that loads to my main scene using a preload. I have a button found on the main scene. When that button is pressed I would like to use the GotoAndPlay command to play a specific frame in that movie. How do I do this. my swf is called inter_mc.swf. I created a function for the button but somehow Im thinking I need to designate the swf in the goto code. This isn't working but it is what I have so far.

basically i have a container which I am loading in swfs, when you click on a specific button I want the loaded swf to jump to a specific frame.
I am using actionscript 2 at the moment this is the code on my buttons...
on (release) {
container.loadMovie("lindy_black_swatch.swf");

View 3 RepliesI have a dropdown menu that I'm learning to use from a tutorial. It's just a little over my head and am wondering if someone could help me. Here's my situation:
1) The menu has the title, DESTINATIONS. Submenu dropdown are a list of CONTINENTS. Rolling over CONTINENTS show COUNTRIES. This works.
2) Clicking on a Country should:
A) load an external swf into an empty movie clip :: Works!
B) go to the COUNTRY specific frame within that loaded movie clip. :: Doesn't work!
Here is a sample code from this menu, where it defines the fields that populate the menu:
var menu_0 = ['Destinations',['Africa#destinations1.swf|Rwanda#destinations1.swf |Uganda#destinations1.swf|Kenya#destinations1.swf| Madagascar#destinations1.swf|Botswana#destinations 1.swf',
'Asia#destinations1.swf|Japan#destinations1.swf|In diat#destinations1.swf']]
how to direct the link in the menu in a specific frame in an externally loaded swf? I can do this on a 'normal' button using placeFrame, but because I'm unfamiliar with how this particular menu is made, I don't know how to implement what I know.
Does someone have a working fla to illustrate how to load an external movie and zoom and pan to specific location of this movie (with easing)? With actionscript, not necessarily with a control for the user. I am looking for it for some time and unfortunately my programming abilities are not yet sufficient to find it out from scratch (but I am working on it).

View 1 RepliesOk - i have a main movie template. It simply contains 'loaders' to load in other swf files. There are a total of 6 different movies being loaded one at a time. It's a magazine of sorts.
So page 1 will load swf 1, and so on.
How can I configure this that if we want a user to go directly to page 3 of the movie - we can give them a URL to do it.
Neiman Marcus does something very similar.
This will take you to page 3 of their flash movie: [URL]
A lovely client of mine just decided after we had completed his flash presentation that he would love to be break the presentation into smaller chunks so we can link to the different parts of the presentation directly even thought it's one movie. Is this possible? I have a holder movie that loads each section in a movieclip when the user clicks on a link in the navigation. I thought I would follow this technique:

View 2 RepliesI want to "Test Movie" to get a feel for what my animation looks like as a SWF file but I want to test it from a specific frame. My reason for this is that normally if I go to Test movie, I have to watch my entire animation from the start when really, I might want to test it only to see if a certain part works. And I do realize there is the "play" option in the timeline using Enter but that doesn't have the same effect as Test movie.
Is there any way of testing a movie from a specific frame?
