I need to stop a slideshow(from rhamej on kirupa), once it's started, when one of the image thumbsis clicked.I've tried in many ways, but nothing works.newBut(thumb button)
PHP Code:
newBut.onRelease = function() {
checkThumbs();

each frame on the main movie pulls in an external jpg. on entering that frame.this movieclip ( slideshow timer) is associated with a play button.frame 1 (slideshow timer)just has a stop.once the play button is pressed then the following code in frame 2.(slideshow timer) begins to switch through the frames on the main movie.but if i want to stop the slide show it doesn't seem to do anything.i suspect that a function cannot be removed but have not found anything to say whether it can or can't.
function jumpFast(){
_root.nextFrame()
}

I have a slideshow of images which a user can cycle through with the next button, but I want it to stop on the last frame/image so they can then use the previous_btn to go back? this is my code,
[Code]...
How would I go about adding stop and play buttons to a slideshow?
stop1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stop1);
play1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, play1);
function stop1(event:MouseEvent){
[Code]....
I am still new to flash and creating button which allows you to click a button to go to that slide. And also have the flash to automatically play/stop. The slideshow will go to the next slide when you click on the picture, but I am in the dark. The flash uses xml to load the picture and I am having a hard time trying to grasp understanding xml.

View 3 RepliesI created a basic slideshow with a Next and Previous button. I attach this code in the first frame of the main timeline:
Code:
stop();
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, moveNext, false, 0, true);
function moveNext(e:MouseEvent):void {nextFrame();}
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movePrev, false, 0, true);
function movePrev(e:MouseEvent):void {prevFrame();}
It works fine, until I get to the last frame of the timeline (10th frame in this case). Then both buttons cease functioning. Why? The listeners should still be working.
I have created a pie preloader(preloader.zip) which is working fine. Same preloader I am trying to incorporate in a xml based slideshow(slideshow.zip) to show image loading process but some how I got stuck. I am new to flash. Suggestions are welcome.
1. How to solve the problem of preloader2. Is it possible to integrate everything in a movie clip (including AS). I mean no AS on main time line but inside the movie clip. It would be much easier then to to create multiple slideshows by duplicating mc and changing the xml file.
i have a question about text in a slideshow. i know how to make a basic photo slideshow with external images. but now what i want to do is add 4-5 paragraphs of text next to each photo (with possible scrolling). the text will be different on each photo.
View 1 RepliesI thought I had a handle on the timer class (even just a beginners understanding), but I'm having trouble with it.I have an event listener for the timer and it starts fine i get a delay, then a tween,but when I place a myTimer.stop();in the fuction the listener called (to stop it) it dosent stop.it will repeat placing the first image, and then call the first function again
......Wait its placing the first image in (a couple of lines before the start), so Its restarting the whole movie, not just the function?
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tweenone)
myTimer.start();
function tweenone (event:Event):void[code]...........
I have a contact form for which I have a tween. That contact form consists of two keyframes, first the form, I tried putting the code stop(); in the first keyframe but it didn't stop. I then changed stop(); to _root.stop();, which didn't work either. I have to stop it because otherwise users would see a thank you note before they even enter their details. What can I do? Converting to movieclip didn't work either, besides it puts a funny character when I press AltGr
View 2 RepliesI just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.
How do I stop a class file from automatically inserting itself into the .fla file. I want to insert it manually into a frame, and then tell it to stop after I leave the frame.The following is the code included in my .as file.

Im attempting to make a preloader. I am very new to action script so this is what i have.
Code:
ifFrameLoaded ( "UC" ) {
gotoAndPlay ( "home" );
}
as simple as it gets, right? Wrong, the preloader works however is get this error 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program. The preloader it self works it plays and when the movie is loaded it begins the movie, however the movie doesnt stop at any of my stop commands and keeps looping through itself over and over again till i exit the window.
I've tried a couple dozen things to try and stop this movie clip, even down to the bare bones basics and its not working.I have an imported TIFF sequence that i imported onto the stage of a movie clip. Its 73 frames long, i want it to stop on frame 73.So i add the usual stop(); command but it doesn't stop, it keeps looping.On the main layer i put this movieclip in i have an AS layer that also has stop(); and moviclip.stop();But it doesn't stop at all. it just keeps repeating.I put it down to this bare basic setup just to see if i could even stop it. But its not stopping.Layers -> and stuffScene 1Content - movieclipMCActionScript - stop(); movieclipMC.stop();Movieclip - keyframes consisting of image sequence 1-73. frame 73 has stop();
View 1 RepliesI have some bombs like this :
var sjunkBomb:Array = new Array;
for (var i:int = 0; i < sjunkBombMaxAntal; i++) {
var bomb = new sjunkbomb;[code]....
Each movieclip sjunkBomb contains an animated movieclip. When the bombs reach the bottom I want to stop the inside animation.I guess it's better to stop them so they affect the rest of the game if there are a lot of bombs. I know how to hide them with sjunkBomb[x] .visible = false; but if I want to stop them? sjunkBomb[x].stop(); doesn't work!?
I have a movieclip that I want to be scaled to 400.After that I don�t want it to scale anymore.How can I stop it going back to it�s original value and scale again and again.I have the as in "On enter frame",I dont want a button to be pressed to start scaling.

now i am trying to program the stop button to allow the user to stop mid song....
my reverse button causes the timeline to ignore the stop() function on its keyframe and play backwards all the way to the start. Since it keeps trying to play the previous frame, it's frozen at frame 1.

Is there a event listener that monitors if the movie has been stopped?
On a recent project I am working on, I created an event-based sound engine. Different components within Flex will be registered, and then the controller will listen to events and handle the information correctly. So, it just takes a custom SoundEvent or ChannelEvent to alter one of the channels, or play a sound.
I can not quite figure out what is wrong with my code, and I am finding myself snow-blind to the issue at hand. At first, I was going to rewrite it but I figured it would be better to learn from my mistake. Also, I realize that this is not correct for streaming sounds, but I am working off a local sound library until I get it up and running smoothly.
Here is the code for the SoundEvent:
package code.events
{
import flash.events.Event;
public class SoundEvent extends Event
[code]....
i have mp3 player that i've written now i load that swf file into my new project bu i can't stop it when i go to another menu
could i write SoundChannel.stop and stop all channels?
Is it possible to play and stop a number of frames later, without using stop() in the frames? Like when I click a button frame 20 will start playing and it stops 30 frames later, all defined by the actions of the button..

I have an interactive flash application that I'm building, but it's gotten kinda large (~200k) because of one large png file. So, I want to build a preloader for it, but I seem to have some difficulty getting it to a) stop looping back to scene 1, or b) look good if I use stop();
for some reason, the folowing scene's moving elements look crappy if I use stop(); in it's first frame in order to stop it from going back.
I don't want scene 1 to continuously reappear, but stop messes with the moving elements in scene 2.
I have my Flash piece with three tabs...HOME, VIDEO and PHOTOS. If you go to VIDEO I will have several buttons that you can choose to play different videos. Right now I just have one setup. Once I click the button I jump to a new frame where i have the FLV player ON THE STAGE. The video runs great.....until I go to another frame label like Photos or HOME. The FLV player is NOT on the frame where these others are but yet it still keeps playing.
When I started to try and stop the movie I put "myFLVplayer.stop();" within my button code for the PHOTOS button. This stopped the FLV ONLY if I had went to the VIDEO section and started a movie. If I click the PHOTOS tab before the movie was played I get an error message "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at fish_2009_AS3_fla::MainTimeline/photos_clicked()"
Here is my code on Frame 1 of my file with the code in each button...this DOES NOT WORK....why?
ActionScript Code:
stop();
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, home_clicked);
video_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, video_clicked);
[Code].....
I also tried taking the "video_player.stop();" code and placing it on each of the three frame where I jump to for each section. That did nothing. In the old days when I did this I would have one FLV player on the stage spanning several frames. I wold then jump to specific frame and just load the new FLV into the player. Once I left that frame the movie stopped.
what wrong with the functin 'stopFish' Without this function the fish in the tank swims but when I add it, it doesnt anymore. I just want the fish to stop swimming after I clicked it and start swimming after another click.
