I'm trying to figure out how to start a flash animation at 7PM PST every Tuesday PST this animation would signify a 'live chat.' I can't figure how to make it PST specific, or how to do automate it every Tuesday, and I'm not sure if it's possible with just AS2.0 and no php involvement. I looked up the "get.Timeshift" function in the help.

View 2 Repliesso I have a looping animation that is several frames long. Inside the animation is a button, when pressed I want to go to another part of the timeline, where another animation is waiting. Simple, I got that working no problem. But... I need the first animation to go to the last frame in the loop before starting the next animation. The way I have it now makes an ugly cut, and the transition between animations isn't seamless.

I have several MCs on the stage. Each have a basic animation. They have a button embedded so I can click on them. When I click on the first MC it starts animating. When I click on another MC I need the first animation to stop. Is there a stop command I can put in there that stops the other animation before starting its animation?
View 4 RepliesIm using the flvplayback to put up a video in my swf. in my swf i also have several buttons. the thing i want to do is when i for example click a button i want to start playing the movie from 5 seconds in it and then stop the movie at for example 10 seconds in it. even if the video is 20 seconds long i want to be able to stop it automatically at 10 seconds in the movie. the start and stop should be controlled from the button..
i know how to start the movie at a specific time but i dont know how to stop it at a specific time.
I need to create a tall background, when the user clicks on a button the background will scroll up and down to the area that the user wants to go to. ( I　attach an image of how that might look like)
The background is divided in to 4 sections, the way i figure to do this, is to have each section be a different part of the timeline- and what Ｉ need to happen is as the user arrives at one of the sections or in that part of the timeline the mc's on that sections start playing and stoping once he/she leaves.
If there is a better way of doing this as well- feel free of telling me- Im use flash about once a year.
I've compiled an MTS video into MP4 format using FFMPEG. The video is 2 minutes long.
I want to be able to play the video back but start at 0:15 seconds and end at 0:45 seconds. Effectively I want the playback software to only show 30 seconds of playback available. The software must be a Flash-based application for integration into HTML.
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.

After doing some research, I found that there seem to be a lot of confusion regarding what I am trying to do.I thought this would be something that a lot of people would find it useful but very little information out there.I found a thread that did exactly what I'm trying to achieve, but I was hoping I could find some other solution in AS3 aside from using timeline animation and frame labels.[code]...

View 1 RepliesI'm working on an assignment for a Flash Game Programming class (1 of 2) where I have to take a pre-made animation, add start and stop buttons to it, and use AS3 to make those buttons work. I got the buttons on the .fla, but I'm having a heck of a time stopping the animation using the stop button (I haven't even done the start button yet). This course is an independent study so I'm not being "taught" anything by the instructor. I have to find the answers myself. I've asked said instructor, my former AS instructor, and several computer lab monitors for help and we cannot get the animation to work correctly. There are compile errors that come up that really make no sense. This is my last resort in regards to this assignment!

I have a flash movie with some buttons created through action script. Currently the button links are going inside the flash menu, starting an animation. I need them to go to web folder, but I don't know how to do it.
This is the part for the button action :
fm.flashmo_button.onRelease = function(){
_root.page = this._parent.item_no + 1;
_root.play();
};
It creates 8 buttons. I tried this:
fm.flashmo_button.onRelease = function(){
getURL ("[URL]", "_self");
getURL ("[URL]", "_self");
};
When I do this, publish and click on any button, it opens both links. How can I assign for each button, a link? Here's the whole code for the button generation and linking :
stop();
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
flashmo_logo._visible = false;
flashmo_logo._y = 300;
menu_item_group.menu_item._visible = false;

I'm working on a services module (slideshow for lack of a better term) for an accounting firms website - site is still under construction at On the home page, far right hand column a grey box with a service icon and user controls progresses thru the five services until the user advances the slide manually.I need to randomize the starting point of the slide show using one of the five services. To complicate the matter further I need to weight them so some services show up more often than others. But randomizing with equal weight would at least be a start.
View 1 RepliesI have this standing person (its a MC) and another MC that is the same person but in a jumping position. And the thing is that I want that jumping person to appear when the Space bar is hit, and the standing person to disappear. But when the space bar is released the jumping person disappears and the standing reapers. I know it has to be an if statement, but I'm not sure do I addChild, cause both of these MC are strings on the same timeline.
View 5 RepliesCurrently I've got 2 of the same movie clip. both containing an flvplayback component. One of them has a heavy blur effect, one of them doesn't. The blurred one is the 'reflection' of the other one, but the problem is they don't load at exactly the same time alot of the time. Is there any simple code that will make one wait for the other to load? You can see it here... [URL].

I'm in need of a preloader, (or easy tutorial on how to create one), that will run a progress bar and also play a short welcome animation all the way through... regardless of connection speed. One that checks total frames of mc against total bytes loaded or something.
View 5 RepliesI have the animation performing ok in the file, but I am having trouble getting the movie clip to play on mouseover. could really use some advice on this. I've been through a number of tutorials, but cannot get this file to play nice.On mouseover, the menu should animate down (play the clip). This brings up another question, however How do I get the menu to receed (animate up) when the cursor leaves the button region?
View 2 RepliesI got mcMaine that contains 5 other mc. Each of these mc contains animation tween in them.
I would like to make each animation start playing, individually, on a specific frame, in the main timeline.
I have a swf file "home" that has a series of animations that are button controled.I want part of the animation to be skipped when I click one specific button, for instance.Most of the time I want frame label:"1 out" to play all the way through to the last frame (20) and on frame (20) there is an action sending it back to frame 1and stopping, but I need to have a button that when hit plays frame label 1: "1 out" and continues to frame (19) and does not utilize the action on frame (20) sending it back to frame (1), or in other words playing through "1 out" and then playing "2 out" which occurs on frame 21 without returning to frame (1).

I am making a simple application, 4 pages of information with the navigation buttons in a bar along the bottom of all four pages. (easy right!)
My problem is, i won't the information (pics,videos etc) to animate into each page when selected.
I can make them animate in by using the gotoAndPlay () method. BUT when i do this it just loops through all the remaining pages till the end.
gotoAndStop () doesn't play the animations, but the navigation works find.
