ActionScript 2.0 :: Button In Nested Mc Needs To Jump Back To Main Timeline?

Mar 4, 2008

so i have a main timeline and a nested one. the main timeline has a button named "how_btn" that plays the nested mc (named "how"). once i get into playing "how", i have a button named "menu" that i want to bring the user back to the main timeline (where the "how" button is). this is how i scripted:

how_btn.onRelease = function () {
gotoAndStop("how");
}
menu_btn.onRelease = function () {
gotoAndStop("nav");
}

the how button script works, however the menu button does not. is this b/c it's in a nested mc? i tried specifying the root, but that didn't do it either.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Nested Button Access MovieClip On Main Timeline

Feb 5, 2010

I have a button inside a movieclip. When the button is clicked I want it to make a movieclip in the main timeline go to a specific frame. what's the code I need to use to define that movieclip located on the main timeline? Right now I have my code written inside the movieclip where the button is located because I have multiple buttons on multiple frames, and I don't know the syntax to define a button in a specific frame inside a movieclip.

Here's my current coding...
Code:
Select allfunction bwbtn2(btn:SimpleButton,frame:Number) {
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function() {photobw_img.gotoAndStop(frame);});
}
bwbtn2(bw19_btn,19);

I have a btn within a Movieclip at a certain keyframe the user is asked if they want to go back to make another selection from a choice category (within the maintimeline)
 
As of now the code I have for the btn that jumps you back to the main timeline is:
 
on (press) {    gotoAndStop(_root.stop(24));}
  
Does _root.stop(24) need to be in quotes?
 
ie. "_root.stop(24)"

Make Nested Movie Clip Button Go To Frame On Main Timeline?

Jan 29, 2012

I am making a website based in flash actionscript 3.0 i have a button nested in its own movie clip, because I have the button expanding to be able to read it i have figured out the only way to do this is by creating it as a movie clipa nd inside the movie clip creating it as a button. I added an event listener to the blog button by saying[code]...

i have named the symbol blog and have name the frame of where the blog page is going to be "blogframe" this line of code at the bottom is where i run into trouble the output window in Flash is saying "The blog button was clicked" just like i want it to. no errors are accouring why than is the playhead not going to frame "blogframe"? if the button is working when i click it the code is right i belive the problem here is it does not want the playhead to go to the frame i want it to. So i gues my question is, how can i make a button withing a movie clip interact with the main timeline?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Target Button In Movieclip Back To Main Timeline?

Oct 1, 2009

I have some submenu buttons in a movieclip on the mainline. My first level of navigation in on main timeline. The submenus are grouped in movieclips on the main timeline. I basically used the same code on the main navigation for the sub navigation except the code for the submenus is in that movie clip. My trace statement reads the button is clicked (which was a quantum leap for me) but I know I need some kind of _parent code in there so it knows to go to label back on main timeline. I feel like I am so close.
 
Also is this an ok way to set this up? I couldn't figure out how to do it in one frame. I didn't realize this basic framework was going to be so difficult.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Navigating Back To Main Timeline Using A Button In A Movieclip?

Jul 14, 2009

I can get my menu buttons to move me around the timeline, but am at a loss as to how to move to a frame on the main timeline using a button within a movieclip that has it's own timeline.

So what I mean is that on the mian timeline, a movieclip graphic with a button in it drops down. This movieclip has it's own timeline, and any AS to control the button has to be in this timeline. So how do I tell it 'when the button is clicked, go BACK to frame X on the MAIN timeline?

Here's the AS on the main timeline for the menu buttons (how would I adapt it to apply to buttonX within movieclipZ?, and where would I put this extra code in my movie?):

function Nav(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace("Nav "+arguments)
switch(event.target.name){
case "gilbert": gotoAndPlay(72); break;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dilemma - Get Loaded In Swf To Goto Frame Label On Main Timeline?

Oct 21, 2005

I have a button that is loaded into my main movie at level 2. in my main movie on the timeline I have a frame label called guestbook. I want my button, when released to go to trigger the frame label. on my button i have the script:

on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop("guestbook");
}

Obvously this does not work because it references the wrong timeline so i tried:

on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndStop("guestbook");
}

thinking that somehow it would see the parent swf and work - haha - me and my dumb ideas of course it doesnt work.do you know how i can get it to work. Perhaps i should mention that the button that loads in at level 2 is inside a movie clip (for reasons of animation)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Nested MC Control Main Timeline MC?

Dec 1, 2011

actionScript 2.0
flash mx4 pro

here is a description of the flash movie.I have a map of the world on the main timeline that is a movie. The map is compiled of buttons that navigate the main timeline to named frames. -Ex. If you click Africa from the world map you are taken to the �Africa� named frame on the main timeline. This works perfectly.At the Africa named frame on the main timeline I have replaced the world map with a large map of just Africa. This large Africa map is a movieclip instance that has script on it to be draggable. This works perfectly.

The Africa map contains little movieclips that blink. I would like the little blinking movieclips to control the alpha of a movieclip (when rolled over/off) that is on the main stage and timeline.

Linking Back To The Main Timeline?

Aug 26, 2010

I recently started creating a flash website from a template that was created back in 2004. I have very little knowledge of either AS 2.0 or AS 3.0. I am currently attempting to link my buttons that are in separate movieclips back to specific parts of the main timeline "scene 1". Currently when clicked, the buttons just cycle through the varying pages that have been created, "s1" , "s2" etc.

How do I link a movieclip/button back to "s8" in the main timeline?The AS 2.0(I think it's AS 2.0 anyway) that currently exists is as follows:

PHP Code:

on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

[code]....

I understand what first rollOver and rollOut commands are and they work fine, but the "On (release)" doesn't seem to go where it needs to.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Nested MovieClips From The Main Timeline

Jun 3, 2009

I was trying to access some nested movieClips from the main time line but it was giving an error. What I have is a movieClip on the stage called "dog" and inside this movieClip I have two nested movieClips called "dogLH" and "dogRH". The movieClip "dog" was brought to the stage using actionscript 3.0 and when I tried to move the moveClips inside "dog" it gave me an error.

This is the code I have:

var dogog = new Dog();
dog.x =200;
dog.y =150;

[Code]....

What is strange is that if I add the movieClip "dog" to the stage manually and try the same thing it works. Any idea why it doesn't work when it is brought to stage with actionscript, but it works if I bring this manually?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Getting Back To Main Timeline In Loaded Ext. SWF

I have a project I'm working on where the user is presented with an overhead shot of a building and is able to mouse-over the different rooms to choose one to "enter." Once clicked, the chosen room is an external .SWF that is loaded that has options to view other external .SWFs within that room. Problem is, within the first loaded .SWF, I have a "home" button that is supposed to take the viewer back to the main overhead view but I can't get the AS to work. I've tried _parent and _root with no luck (not sure I even typed out right code).
