Oct 29, 2010I'm new to ActionScript 3.0, some time ago I was developing some websites using ActionScript 2.0 - mainly timeline scripting. As I want to come back to developing websites, but I don't want to go back to AS2 I'm learning AS3. On that occasion I want to learn class based programming and to learn it I'm trying to build the image portfolio website. Before, my projects build was based on main.swf file which was loading external swf files for every 'module' of the website and now I'm not entirely sure how to organize my project using AS3. So for the example let's say the website I'm building will have:- Main stage- Menu- Links content displayer- Footer Links would look like the below:- Main image gallery- Another image gallery- Contact form- About me- News module Now the question is, what is the best practice for building this kind of project?Should I create Main swf file that will load all external content as swf files (image galleries engine, contact form, about me, news module) and place it on the stage? Or should I create separate class for each of the part of the website?
My concern is, that with separate swf files, I could update just one part of the website and upload it on the server and that part was loaded when needed. With project build based on classes, after updating one link's class I'll have to compile whole project - of course it's not a big problem, but then the website will be in one file, which can grow every time I'll update the links. The swf file will contain data that may never be used so this could be easily separate swf file loaded only on request.

Nov 2, 2010Im creating a viewing menu using the kind if fish eye method used from this site: [URL] (sorry for posting the link like that but sending the site is a lot easier than attatching all the files and I wasn't allowed to send a link till I had 50 posts, while I'm only on 5 now haha) I need to be able to stop the animation in mid flow so the selected image stays large while I move the mouse around, without a different image inlarging instead, and then have it moving again when I want. I am a complete noob to AS3 so I dont know if there is a simple way of doing this or if it's complicated.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Display Programing Approach?
Aug 31, 2010I come from game programing using c++ and glut (which is an external library to display sprites and stuff). in glut you do everything in the code there is no drag and drop, this is nice since all the control is at the code itself, this is also annoying because when you want to display something you need to guess the right coordinations, this requires a few tests until you get the right coordinations.
Now in flash you do have the drag and drop feature which is great but it doesn't go well with the OOP concepts, at least for me.my dilemma is: do you create your frames (symbol creation and placement) by code only (but miss the drag and drop freature of flash) or do you create pre-made frames by drag and dropping symbols from the library?

Stop(); Not Working - Main Menu Automatically Switches To The Next Page After About Six Seconds
May 3, 2009I have a home page and five other pages. The five pages have a main menu at the top containing buttons that allow you to go to the other pages:
on(release){
gotoAndPlay("gallery");
}
I have an actions layer. Each section has the following action in the first frame: stop(); When I view the website the home page works correctly. However, any page with the main menu automatically switches to the next page after about six seconds. The code seems pretty straightforward so I have no idea what I'm missing.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 1/2 :: Repeat Function After X Seconds?
Nov 21, 2010I just wonder if I could make the object "car" to repeat doing this:
function start_car(){
_root.car.onEnterFrame = function(){
_root.car._y +=15;
};
};
setTimeout(start_car, 1000);
I want it to begin at y=0 and x=0 after like 7 seconds and then repeat going down the y axis as you can see in the code.
So the car movieclip starts moving slowly from the top going down then after like 7 seconds when it's out of the scene it begins at e.g x=0 y=0 and going down for 7 seconds then starts at x=0 y=0.... etc, so it keeps looping.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Timeout Function - Pause For 8 Seconds?
Mar 25, 2010I have a movieClip that is basically a slide show.It is controlled by AS that is on its own timeline. It moves forward on its timeline, then a few frames later, I have it pause for 8 seconds with:
Actionscript Code:
stop();setTimeout (function() {play();}, 8000);
It then resumes playing and,a few more frames later,I have it jump to a different random slide. This all works fine. There are other frames on the MAIN timeline that do not contain this moveiClip. The problem is, if I go to one of those other frames in the main timeline, the above movieClip function is somehow still active, and after the 8 seconds it sends the play command. In this case, it causes the MAIN timeline to start playing.
