The "prevframe();" command is set up to go one frame backwards... is their anyway to make it go two frames backward? or is their a code that will send you two frames backward? I feel like a noob asking this question...

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 had the idea of a circular menu, and when the user clicks on a menu item, that one rotates to the top, and becomes highlighted (hopefully with easing). I've searched around here for reversing timelines, etc. but can only find ones that go to the next set frame.How do I get it to skip past the menu items in between? For example if #1 is at the top and I click on #4, I want it to skip past #2 and #3.
View 6 RepliesIn this bit of code is there anyway to adjust the gotoAndPlay Command to play from frame 114 to frame 200. Are there any commands that will do this. I want it to play from frame 114 to frame 200 when a button is pressed.

View 4 RepliesI'm having an issue with some pictures and a gotoAndStop on frame one command. I have pictures on my website that appear when clicked on, and I've placed a simple close button in the top left corner of the picture that simply tells flash to go back to frame 1 (gotoAndStop(1)). However, it seems that in Internet Explorer (not in FF) when the close button is clicked it goes back to frame one but it leaves part of picture still displayed although it seems to dissapear in segments when rolled over with the mouse. Here is the website where this is occurring: [URL]. Btw, I'm using the flash eff component, but the problem seemed to still occur after i removed all flash eff instances.
View 2 RepliesIs there a command that I can use to render the current frame?
What I want to do is have a loop that moves an object by 1px and renders the current state at each loop.[code]...
So if there is any way to draw the frame without actually reaching the end of the frame's script and then sending the movie back to frame 1 (there must be) that would be helpful. I think that such a thing would make my programs much more efficient.
I created flash file with 2 frames one is English language menu and another one is French and I include one combobox with selection language option "english" and "French". Default language is English. When I set the default language is french that time combobox does not pass the command.
View 3 RepliesCan I add a command to a frame within a movie clip, to jump to the next frame on the main timeline. I've uploaded a very basic .fla, which is two keys and two locks on two frames. What I need to be able to do is move to the second frame on the main timeline once the red X is placed on the black X.
View 2 RepliesWhat is the command to jump to the last frame of the previous scene.E.g.: I have three scenes: sceneA, sceneB and sceneC. An element of the last frame of each scene links to sceneZ. Now I want a button in sceneZ that links either to sceneA, sceneB or sceneC depending on where I came from. prevScene() or prevFrame() doesn't work. I jump to another Scene and I don't know why.

View 5 RepliesI have a .swf menu with 20 or so links. Each link opens up a new html page that in turn embeds the same swf menu. All I want is to simply have the html tell the swf to gotoAndStop a specific frame label that really just 'highlights' that particular button, so the user knows where they are. that's it... used to be able to do this with fsCommand, or so i thought.

I'm new to Flash and am looking to use the following tutorial to create an advanced button. I know it is probably a very simple fix, I just cannot figure it out. [URL] In the tutorial the rollover and onrelease has the following script this.onRollOut = function(){ rewind = true;} this.onRelease = function(){getURL [URL]); } I have tried to change the on.Release command to go to and play another frame in to movie instead of opening a new url. But I'm not getting it to work correctly.

View 2 RepliesSo I've imported video into my flash using the "progressive download from a web server." When the video ends, I want it to automatically go back to the frame I played the video from. What code would I use to do that? I dont want to insert an "x" button, my boss wants it to be automatic. Do I insert a CuePoint? I don't know too much about flash so I'm not sure how to use onCuePoint or anything.

View 7 RepliesI'm making a game in which a character walks along a motion guide to the point on the guide nearest the users click. Easy enough.This motion guide is contained within a MovieClip named Sc1.Now, within the motion guide MovieClip the character is a combination of various MovieClips contained in a single MovieClip, which is placed at the beginning of the guide and tweened to the end of the line. This tween and the MovieClip's component's timelines are controlled based on the point of a users click. Furthermore to add a level of 'realism' the character turns to face front, back or sides, based on the gradient of the slope at which it is travelling, giving the illusion of walking towards or away from the screen.All this works fine. The character instance (SWJim) will walk from left to right, turn and stop at the correct point. The character itself behaves too, moving arms and legs as it should.
However, in order to get the character to walk back from right to left, i have used a boolean to flag the timeline as in 'reverse' mode and the prevFrame() function. This raises an interesting problem with the character in which it will move as planned, but won't turn to face the appropriate direction and the character MovieClip won't play (i.e. arms, legs etc. will remain in their default positions). In order to turn, the character has a series of 5 frames in which it faces different directions. A gotoAndStop(); is used to change the direction of the character.I did a bit of searching and it seems that prevFrame() may have been causing the animations to stop because it was in my onLoop() function, called by the ENTER_FRAME event listener. In order to combat this I used a timer instead to call the onLoop() function, but that produced pretty similar results.[code]
I read a tutorial about complex buttons with prevFrame function on this site. I was wondering how I could use this function to unload my movie. I have a movie (swf) that loads itself into another movie. Now what I would like form this movie to do is to kindly unload itself the way it loaded in. This should happen once a button on the main (root) timeline would be pressed. I already have all the buttons set up, but I have no idea how to write a code that would send my movie backwards. I is simply put a this.onEnterFrame = prevFrame; on the last frame, but now there is a problem. I have to somehow stop this movie until a button is pressed. And only when a button is pressed it should execute prevFrame.
View 1 RepliesI need to happen is when the UP arrow key is pressed, go to next frame. If the DOWN arrowkey is pressed, go back a frame. Here is the code:
< quote >
//stop();
//keyListener = new Object();
//keyListener.onKeyUp = function()
[Code]....
Unfortunately, it is giving me some problems. At first, it seems to work fine, it will go forward a frame if UP key is pressed. However, if I press the down key, then the up key again, it will skip a frame. For example:
I am on frame 1- I press UP key, flash goes to frame 2 On frame 2, I press DOWN key, flash goes to frame 1 On frame 1 again, if I press UP key, flash will jump to frame 3 It will continue to do this until I am left with just my first and last frame and can't go thorugh the other ones.
I'm trying to create a movie clip that can be controlled to move a shape left or right (as animated in the movie clip) via buttons on the main stage.
I was thinking I could just add prevFrame or nextFrame to the controlling buttons when the mouse rolls over them... like this:
Code:
on (rollOver) {
this.shape.prevFrame();
}
But now I need a method of repeating it non-stop while you are on the button. Can I loop the prevFrame infinatly or loop that line of code?
P.S I'm just getting to grips with actionscript and I'm hitting a few hurdles on the way, so please excuse my ignorance.
First off, I'm a total noob when it comes to actionscript. I'm attempting to create a flash movie file that basically has a number of thumbnails in a straight line. As the user puts their mouse over a button I'd like the movie to advance to the next frame and keep playing until the user's mouse leaves that button. I found an online tutorial to accomplish this in AS 2.0 but I would rather do it in 3.0 so it's current.I have the following code that sort of works; when I hover over the right_btn, it advances to the next frame, but only advances 1 frame instead of playing the movie forward. The left_btn should go to the previous frame and play the movie backwards.
right_btn.addEventListener(
MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,
function(evt:MouseEvent):void {
[code].....
Ok I know how to do this in AS2, but I decided to make a sort of dress up game in AS3.
The only thing I don't get to work is: I have 5 frames in a movieclip, the movieclip is on the stage and so is the button, but I want the button to perform nextframe and prevframe of the frames that are in the mc.
I used this code but it does nothing (except for activating my button as a button)
ActionScript Code:
stop();
nexthair.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick1)

i have created a photo gallery using AS3 in Flash CS5. I have used prevFrame() and nextFrame() actions for "previous photo" and "next photo" buttons as well as for "previous thumbnails" and "next thumbnails" buttons.
All the buttons work fine when i run the swf files as well as when i run the swf files in Firefox 8.0 and IE9. However, once I insert this swf file into my html file using Dreamweaver CS5->Insert->Media->swf, the "previous" buttons dont work in Firefox 8.0! the previous image button works sometimes whereas the previous thumbnails button does not work at all They work fine in IE9. The next buttons also work fine in every browser. Heres my code:

I want to trigger via mouseDown a function that plays a 30 frame mc while the mouseX coordinate increases and the mouse Y decreases. Then when the mouseX coordinates decreases and mouseY increases ie. the mouse moves up on the stage - mc plays in reverse So basically the movieClip is scrolled by the mousemovement. When the mouse is not moving mc stops at currentFrame
View 3 RepliesI am having a fair amount of trouble trying to control prevFrame on the timeline, with a play/rewind type motion. Basically, what I want to do is navigate between 3 keyframes on the timeline with 'next' and 'prev' buttons controlling it. I have no problem navigating forward, but when the previous button is pressed on the last keyframe, it just rewinds to the first keyframe. I have stop(); commands on each keyframe, but it seems to skip over the second keyframe when rewinding. The buttons are present throughout the length of the timeline. Here are my actions for the first frame;
