ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating The External .swf Into A Blank Movie Clip In The Main Movie?

Oct 10, 2002

I'm still a rookie in flash and I'm having a little bit of trouble with some actionscript. I've gotten as far as placing the buttons and assign the correct actionscript for them to work. Everything is working fine with the buttons activating the external .swf into a blank movie clip in the main movie. Ony thing is, I would like the external movie assigned to the first button to open once the movie is loaded.

I thought by using the same actionscript i used on the button {and removing the on(release) tag} and placing on the first frame of the main movie would help, but it doesn't.

Drag And Drop Activating A Movie Clip?

Mar 9, 2009

I have a button which, when a user drags it onto a movieclip is supposed to cause that movie clip to advance to frame 2. What I've used so far is this:

Code:

on (press) {
startDrag(this);[code]..........

The button drags fine, but when released over the movieclip nothing happens. I've tried using "_parent.slide1_mc.gotoAndStop(2);" instead to no avail.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clip On Main Timeline Receiving Input From Nested Movie Clip

Feb 23, 2011

I've got a main timeline .swf file called "blank.swf" which contains nothing but two blank movie clips one called called "pproduct", the other called "ppalette". In the script frame of this main timeline I use the simple "Loader = new Loader();" method to load a URL of an .swf file into the "ppalette" movie clip. The "ppalette" movie clip contains several color chip buttons, each of which use the same Loader method above to load an external .swf into a clip. Here's what I want to do: let those color chip buttons, when the "blank.swf" file loads, be used to load an .swf movie into the "pproduct" clip on the main timeline. I'm wanting to be able to swap depths with various movie clips which will take out the movie which has the palette, but I want whatever that palette has loaded in the original "pproduct" clip to stay there.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Activating Multiple Buttons In A Scrolling Movie Clip?

Oct 10, 2011

I've been trying to figure this out all day, with no luck - so I'm hoping someone here can help a girl out with her code .I'm working on what is essentially a 'character profile' page, in which you can scroll across the page to see different characters, and clicking on them will bring up a short profile.However, I've set up these different characters as separate buttons within the scrolling movie clip and can't seem to get them to activate.Here is the code I've used so far:

--
p1.visible = false;
p2.visible = false;
var tar:Number;[code]....

It doesn't work.However, using tutorials and trying different things, all I have achieved is making all the profiles appear at once, or having them activate when you press anywhere on the movie clip.In AS2, I would have used myMC.b1 to target it,

ActionScript 2.0 ::main Timeline With A Blank Movie In It?

Jul 22, 2005

I have a main timeline with a blank movie in it so that I can click the menu and various swf's load into it. This all works perfectly. Then, I have a contacts page with a form that sends to php which all works perfectly. The thing that doesn't work is that when I click submit the thank you frame immediately afterwards doesn't play. The code I've typed is: On the Submit Button:

on (release) {
form.loadVariables("email.php", "POST");
}

On the movie clip:

onClipEvent(data){
_root.nextFrame();
}

This all works fine in Publish preview but once uploaded to the servers it fails unless you type [url]....then it works fine. Is this something to do with layers and levels etc?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating Movie Clip When Resizing Window With Liquid Layout?

Mar 5, 2009

I have a movie clip on a liquid layout page that seems to be appearing when I resize the window. The movie clip is supposed to be transparent until you roll over it but when I drag the window open it triggers the movie clip.I think it has to do with the onClipEvent (load) part of the code but I am not sure. Below is the code that is attached to movie clip that is being triggered. Here is a link to view the swf file: http:[url]....how to remedy this?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading An External Movie Through An External Movie To The Main Movie?

Apr 30, 2003

I am creating a full site in flash. The main movie has an empty movie clip in the middle of the movie to load external movies as the user clicks on the links. Everything has worked good so far as the linking has only gone 1 level deep. However, when I created a new external movie, and had buttons on it for another external page, but yet to open in the main movie, I can't get anything to work. Example.... In the main movie, the user clicks on the archive link, and the external archive movie is loaded into the main movie. Now, on this archive movie, there is a button on it that links to a another movie (say text effects.swf). However, when they click this button for text effects, I can't get it to load into the main movie clip and replace the archive movie that was currenlty there.

I have my flash document set up in the following way: On the main timeline I have my buttons that I want to play movie clips embedded inside a movie clip on the main timeline.However, when I click each different button, the current movie clip stops playing and then the movie clip corresponding to the button plays.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons And Transitions - Load In External Swf Files Into An Empty Movie Clip On The Main Stage Called Container

Jan 11, 2004

I have a problem with buttons and transitions and it is similar to a problem I had a couple of days ago that I posted and that was sorted out. I have two buttons onstage (they're inside a movie clip) inside the movie, on the button one I have the following

[Code]....

I have similar code on button two and this does indeed make the buttons move into place as required. My problem is this, I need to load in external swf files into an empty movie clip on the main stage called container. These External SWF files have transitions and this is where my problem is. If I place a normal button on the stage it works but not if the button is inside a movie clip and has actions applied as above. The code next is what I have believe should also be placed on the button to make swf transition one load in.

ActionScript 2.0 :: When Click On A Link From The External Movie Won't Return On The Main Movie

Feb 1, 2006

- i have 3 separate movie clips (a,b,c)

- my main movie is (a) and when i click a button there, it will go to external movie (b)

- under external movie (b) there's a movie clip that includes my animation and content button

- if i click on the content button on movie (b), external movie (c) will pop up [ it will not replace movie (b) but will just overlap it, it's like a small pop up ]

i did the actionscript and when i'm testing external movie (b), it's working... it's showing/popping up movie (c) but when i tried it on the main movie (a), the movie (c) is not popping on the (b) err, sorry if it's a bit confusing / how i explained it. but hopefully somebody will get the idea. and it won't also return on the main movie (a) when i click on a link from the external movie.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Targeting Mess - Blank Movie Clip Created In The Preloader Swf

Jan 1, 2004

I have a looped sound and some components in my main movie (scroll bar) which for some reason is really bogging down my swf and causing the preloader bar not to show up until like 46% or something ridiculous.

So I am trying to solve the problem by having a preloader swf as suggested by Kode in this thread. However, now all my targeting is messed up in my main movie. Everything that was _root has to change but I can't tell what to load it into. I tried using _parent, _parent._parent, _root.container_mc (which is a blank movie clip created in the preloader swf that main is loaded into after the preloader is 100%) and others but nothing works. Even the simple looped sound which was originally just _root.backsound.start(0,999) can't be targeted. how to target things on my main stage based on the preloader swf?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Targetting A Movie Clip - Loaded Into A Container Clip From Main Timeline

I am targeting a a movie clip. The problem is that all the syntax I have found for targetting clips looks like this: _root.sample_mc.sample2.mc. etc. The problem is, my target clip is in an swf that I've loaded into a container clip from my main timeline. So, essentially, I have a home.swf that loads menu.swf into a container called 'location'. In menu.swf, I have an MC called center, which contains the MC I am targetting called 'target'.
