I have a question regarding Flash CS3 with AS2.My main Scene (Scene1) has a button that uses loadmovie to bring up a nav swf. That nav swf has buttons that I want to open other scenes (i.e. Scene2). Right now my script is:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene1", 1);
}

So when you have a Document class, it is added as an object to the stage. If the equivalent of stage.getChildAt(0); is traced in any custom class linked to the Document class it will output the Document class (ex: GalleryDocument). If you trace it's name property like so stage.getChildAt(0).name; it will output root1.
Is it possible to assign a different name to the Document class or is there a limitation on changing the name property when it comes to the root object?
I am interested in creating a similar color change effect as seen at:As you can see, the color transforms as each menu item is clicked but it doesn't seem to load a new movie.
View 1 RepliesWe are trying to install our Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server. The problem we are facing is that Apache which comes with FMS is set to be run from /home/Apache2.2.21_x64 for some odd reason. Even though we install whole FMS to /opt/adobe/fms folder Apache still has /home/Apache2.2.21_x64 everywhere compilled in. Is there a way to change Apache root folder?

I would like to make a game for christmas. How can i use _parent 2 times? i mean, i have a kinda complicated MovieClip, it's movieclip in movieclip, i think 4, and i want to a script do nextframe to the second parent folder.
Code:
ROOT->Movieclip->2nd Movieclip->3rd Movieclip->4th movieclip.
The 4th movieclip when gets to a keyframe, it activates a script, to do nextFrame() in 2nd movieclip. I tried _parent._parent.nextFrame() and also _parent(2).nextFrame() but they didnt work.
I wanna know how can i jump up 2?
I used the tutorial on Kirupa on loading external swf's. Before writing here I tried to find an answer in the forums, but no luck so here I go.[URL]..If you look at my files: Open portfolio.swf and hit one of the first two images (that initially flies in). here you will see that if you hit the second one, the rpesent one displayed makes an outro and the second one makes an intro, PERFECT!
Now, if you open default.swf (that has portfolio.swf loaded into a movie clip as you can see by looking at the source) and if you hit the second image, the first one makes the outro, and then makes an intro. So the shift to the second one is not happenening. Please, can someone help me to make this happen?

Code:

I have a movie clip that has the following code:
on (release) {
_root.rightMenu_mc.gotoAndStop("Animation");
}
It works fine the way it is but I read that it is better to use relatives paths rather than _root all the time but when I change it to _parent.rightMenu_mc.gotoAndStop("Animation"); it doesn't work anymore.
I have a movie load an SWF into a movie clip, in that SWF there is a button which tells a movie clip to .play, the movie clip inside that swf is called "clip". i have on that button _parent.clip.play();
View 2 RepliesI have several SWFs that I need to work when loaded into another container SWF file as well as work when they are stand-alone SWF files. Because of this, in circumstances where a movieClip is being talked to from another MovieClip I am using _parent as opposed to _root. It has been working fine until now. I have one circumstance that only works with _root and will not work with _parent. _root.content_mc.anim_mc.screenShots_mc.gotoAndSto p(2); Obvously this works fine as a stand alone but not of course once loaded into the container movie.

I am trying to something like the following:
createEmptyMovieClip("iconLoad"+ i, .i+100);

I have an MC with the instance name "building". I want to be able to change the RGB color values of this MC with three buttons for example. for example, one button would change the RGB values to 60 89 159 another button would change the RGB values to 50 251 59 another button would change the RGB values to 22 21 59 And, when the button is clicked, the new RGB color value should fade in without the old values fading out.
