ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Custom Scroller To Control Timeline?
Nov 6, 2009
I've created a simple scrolling thumbnails movieclip, with movement based on interacting with the timeline of the MC rather than its position based on the mouse position.
Although the timeline is activated when one moves their mouse to either end of the thumbnail panel, I wanted to include a scroll bar to show how far up or down the user had scrolled.
Now, I wanted to know whether I could make that scroll bar interactive, and drag to change the frame number. The scroller is a motion tween that moves from the top to the bottom of the scroll bar in sync with the thumbnails. Can I make the bar dragable, and tell it to move through the frames as it is dragged up and down?
Here is my site again:

The last couple of days I've been juggling with a news reader in flash (from the example tutorial here on Kirupa), and this works perfectly. My eye however fell on the scroller that is applied in this newsreader. For my websites I've used several sripts for scrolling, but this one suits me the best, and I would like to use it on more occasions. However the "problem" is that in the newsreader the scroller is used for scrolling a dynamic text field.Ideally I would like to apply it for scrolling Movieclips (like I used to do with the scroller I used in the past). Although I understand actionscrpit to a moderate level, this is a little to much for me. the script used for the scroller is this:
Code:
// global functions
Clamp = function(min, n, max){

I want to make a MC that holds various Data such as textfields images maybe a video, ect just basic content, so i want to put that into a MC and be able to scroll it. But i cant figure out how to do this, no tutorials on the internet. And i dont want to use the UIScroller and Scrollpane components as they are highly unnatractive.. It is for a touch enabled device so maybe a gesture could be used? But im sure a Mouse Event would work,

I wanna design a custom scroller kinda like the on... [URL] (right below the word welcome) I don't want to use the dull custom built in version MX provides cause lets face it, its ugly! and I'd like it to be linked to an external text document. I see this all over the place, so I'm pretty sure this is possible! Point me towards a tutorial or post an .fla with an example or something, I'm guessing a few other people may be interested too!

I'm using the new Spark Datagrid for a project, but I must confess the scroller is annoying me a little bit, so I would like to have some control over it.

Building a custom skin for a flash video player but I do not want any play pause button. Instead I want the video scroller to play and pause on a click event. Problem is I want to change the graphics on the scroller to show the user when the video is paused and being played? I have attached the video player FLA file.

i'm wondering how i can script a scroller bar to smoothly control the _y position of a movieclip on the flash stage, so when the user clicks and drags the scroll button up and down the scroller bar the movieclip scrolls to the relevant position alongside it. i have the button and the movieclip seperated, but both on the same parental level on the timeline.i'm currently using motion tweens (controlled by clicking the up and down buttons of the scroll bar) to animate the movieclip's and the scroller button's_y positions and i'm scripting the fla file in AS2.

I have created a custom multiline item renderer for mx:Tree component. Important to mention that my item renderer has two UITextFields in it. Sometimes (depends of the input data) only one of UITextFields must be shown, so when second UITextField is not needed I hide it and recalculate the height of my item renderer. According to my tests height is calculated properly.The problem occures when I do scroll of my tree. The error text is:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

I have a dynamic image scroller that scrolls right or left following where the mouse is. When you hover over the images, a pop-up box also appears with information. This scroller works perfectly fine within the mc scene, but once i drag the mc into the main timeline the mc doesn't smoothly scroll right or left. It's jumpy and the infobox doesn't work at all. How can I get it to work smoothly on the main timeline?

Where can I find ready-made buttons that will control an FLV and a timeline together? I have a swf with an FLV and I animate images and phrases on a movieClip timeline timed to what they say in the flv. I set up cuepoints that trigger the animations, so when users scrub, pause, etc. the timeline eventually catches up with the FLV, but it would be a lot nicer if the pause, scrub, etc. would do the same to the timeline and there was no lag time.

in AS2 how would i use the down arrow key to make the timeline play? at the moment i have this and i presume i need to put something after that to make it play. [code]but i presume this is totaly wrong because the "stop();" doesnt stop the clip when the "if (Key.isDown(40))" bit is after it.

I have an application with a collection of sounds in the timeline. One sound file is recorded at a slightly lower volume than the others. I know I could change this in Audacity but I'm wondering whether I could attach a line of actionscript to its button to raise its volume slightly.I know its possible to do this when playing sounds with actionscript directly from the library, but that would be too big a departure from the development style used.

I am creating a very simple presentation in CS3, which will be projected on-screen and will have a live speaker. I would like to be able to pause the SWF at various locations along the timeline so that the speaker my discuss issues on the screen, and then presume playing it. Since don't want this control visible (such as with a button) to the audience, I would like the control either with the press of a key, such as the arrow right key, or with a remote controller. How would I encode this both with the press of a key or with a remote controller?

in the old version of flash, there was an option in the property inspector where one could have assigned ie. 8 seconds to a keyframe (esp. text) so one could read the let's say 3 sentences before the next set of sentences came on the stage. i swear there was an option for this in flash 8. can anyone tell me how to control the timing in flashcs4 in between frames? i know how to make the very last frame stop( ); in actionscript 3.

What was simple is now documented by 15 pages of chicken scratchesI have searched through the docs and am just lostWhat I want to do was simple enough in AS2: onClipEvent (EnterFrame)_root.gotoAndPlay("2");But can't be done now. It doesn't work as a frame action either without the onClipEvent. All I want to do is go from the last frame of the timeline to frame 2 and skip the preloader. How the heck do I do that in AS3? I've searched online and cannot find the method, and perhaps search terms don't work. Anything I can find applies to AS2.
