View 4 RepliesI have a slideshow that loads image files with the BulkLoader class from here. When the first image is loaded completely, it gets added to a MovieClip container to add it to the stage.. and it gets displayed fullscreen, but only if a button is clicked:
fullScreenButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showFull);
function showFull(e:MouseEvent):void {
stage.addChild(mcSlideHolder);
[Code]....
This works fine unless the fullScreenButton is clicked before the image is loaded completely, then of course nothing is visible. How do I get button click event that calls showFull() to wait until the image is loaded/added to the container or how can I add it again? What is a possible/the best approach?
I tried dispatching a custom event "firstImgAdd" that adds the image again to the container when the fullScreenButton is clicked, as well as with a try/catch block or even a simple if condition but none of them worked, meaning the image does not get added to the container after it has finished loading when the button is clicked too early.
I have a movieclip playing and when I click a certain button I want the movieclip to first play an "outro" animation (which is also inside the movieclip) then go to the real target of the button. For example, I am at the Homepage of my website then I click on the Contact button. The homepage will first go to Homepage's outro animation then go to the Contact page. I need the button to recognize the page/clip being played and the page it will go to.
View 1 RepliesI wrote the following code to have flash stop on frame 1 and wait for the click on the start button. I will use the animation in Connect Pro and without a Start button, the audio starts before the video. Here is the code and following is the error I get in the Compiler when I play the animation. The button does have the instance name play_btn :
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
} stop();
The error I get is:
Location: Scene=Scene1, layer=actions, frame=1, line 3
Description: The class or interface 'MouseEvent' could not be loaded.
Source: Function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent);void
I created a movieclip animation that only activates when i rollover the movieclip button. I further extended the frames and created another frame animation that i active only when user clicks the button. So i have a roll over/out animation and click animation in the same movieclip in the same layer. Now the problem is that when i click on the button, its supposed to take me to another page, and it does, unfortunately without the click animation. That means after i click on the button its supposed to first finish the click animation and then go to another page. But when i click, it takes me to another page without showing the click animation
SO I tried the If function, but i seem to make a mistake somewhere and i dont know what to do. Now there is no error in script, but onw there is a problem in link, the button finishes the click animation but it does not go to the tarrgeted"about" frame. here's the code

I got my animation ready, now I just want to export it as Flash movie, and make it play on click. How do I do this?
View 2 Repliesi am developing a simple game "finding the object"
i want to play the animation once i click the object
I am building a flash interface and I would like a menu where it is hidden to begin with (just a tab). You click the tab to expand it, and click again to collapse it. I've made a movieclip with animation of the menu opening up and closing, but I can't seem to work out how I'd go about making the movieclip open and close properly.
View 4 RepliesI have a test button i would like to have play a movie where a graphic expands. Once stopped, I would like to be able to click that same button and have the graphic go backwards. I would prefer to have timeline reverse, rather than lengthen the timeline of the mc because then i have to line up the start and end, and if one changes, i have to remember to change the other.
btn_test.onRelease = function(){ if (_root.adinstance._currentframe != 1) { while(_root.adinstance._currentframe != 1) { _root.adinstance.prevFrame(); else { _root.adinstance.play(); }}

i have my main timeline with all the code on the first layer all is good there. But then inside a movie clip that is inside another that plays an animation i have some more code to load an external swf.
the code works fine i have tested it but it does not seem to want to work when its put in the timeline inside a movieclip.
I know i can put it on the first main stage layer with all my code and it will work but i want it only to work after i click a button and that button has played its animation.
I want to make a button that will go to the next frame after the cursor is over it for 5 secs.
View 1 RepliesAlright so I have 5 buttons going across a page, and when i click on one, I want an animation to play that leads into the next page. I want this same animation to play whenever I click any of the buttons, but after the animation is done, I need the movie to go to different URLs.Basically I need code for a button to play an animation, then go to a URL after the movie clip has finished playing.
View 1 RepliesI have a swf file "home" that has a series of animations that are button controled.I want part of the animation to be skipped when I click one specific button, for instance.Most of the time I want frame label:"1 out" to play all the way through to the last frame (20) and on frame (20) there is an action sending it back to frame 1and stopping, but I need to have a button that when hit plays frame label 1: "1 out" and continues to frame (19) and does not utilize the action on frame (20) sending it back to frame (1), or in other words playing through "1 out" and then playing "2 out" which occurs on frame 21 without returning to frame (1).
View 6 RepliesI started some days ago with Adobe Flash CS4, and I need to create buttons now. The button I want to create this time should be a frame by frame button, so when the user clicks 1 time on the button the animation needs to go 1 frame further and pause there.
This is what I coded so far:
nextframeknop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextframeClick);
function nextframeClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
play();
stop();
}
And I assume I need to create some kind of time interval of 1 frame between the "play();" and the "stop();".
Whats the best thing to do when you want to do an animation of a line that connects in each other as you click the button??you set the dots in a stage, and when you click the button there will be a line that will connect from dot1, into dot2 and so on.. ofcorse it includes animation effect.[code]
View 3 RepliesSo within my Flash document I have a rollover movieclip that contains a UI scrollbar. My question is, can I modify this rollover script to be active until it reachs a certain frame in the animation and then become inactive so that the scrollbar works? Or, is there some script that I can use to make the UI scrollbar active within the rollover clip?

I do have four picture and 4 buttons which I need to place on the picture. Iam using the buttons to navigate through the pictures so that if I click button 3 - picture 3 shows up - NOT in a new frame.
View 2 Replies*trouble with gotoandplay and roll out functions* basically i have an after effects movieclip (followed the after effects button tutorial on this site) that i have made into a button. it works ok on rollover and rollout i use tweener which works a treat and when i click it goes to another frame and plays a small sequence of smoke exploding.
problem: its a look problem really. when i rollout the smoke click sequence tweens back to frame 0 as per my rollout instructions IS there a way for me to have the click smoke sequence play all the way through before going back to frame 0 on my rollout ? i see tweener has a oncomplete statment is that of anyuse? ive tried a few thigns but it always reverts to the rollout and reverses the footage.

rollover play anim issue I am having? this is what I am trying to do:
1. a button that when rolled over animates(working)
2. the button when clicked should play another 'animation' that is placed on the scene(can't get to work)
3.Inside the 'animation' the button plays, there is a 'close' button that should playout the 'anmation' timeline.(not working)not sure what script to attached to the 'close' button .
I have made a button by creating a new symbol naming it and setting it as a button. Then I have edited the four frames to my liking. Then I added it to a layer on my timeline by dragging it from the library.
I have looked at other tutorials on youtube and such, but all the code etc doesnt seem to work. I use Flash CS5.Once I have created the button, what should I do to make it stop the animation at the beggining, and play when it is pressed.
now I just started with Flash and have ran into an issue. I made a little animation (motion tween I think) and then made a button which is supposed to start the animation (play it).
My script so far:
stop() ;
knappEnter.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, starteAnimasjon);
function
(knappEnter is the instance name of the button, starteAnimasjon means startAnimation in norwegian, sorry for that, name of the animation is figur)
So basically I've managed to make the animation stop which is what I wanted, then made the button work, but now I need the last command so the button makes the animation play! I've been looking around for a while, but I just don't know how to do it
I would like to press a button on my screen, have it play a quick little animation and then link to another page on my site. I was thinking a gotoandplay followed by a navigatetoURL
View 3 RepliesI've got a white outline around a button that fades up on mouse over and fade out on mouse down. I've done it by creating alpha tween of the outline in 2 separate movie clips and dropping each clip onto the correct frame of the button symbol.
Question is - how do i get the down state movie to play to the end? If i click and hold the fade-out anim plays ok, but if i click quickly (as everybody does) it'll only play like 1 or 2 frames of the fade out.
I have been searching for a way to do this for about 3 days but I have come to no conclusion. I need to find a way to get an animation playing when a button is clicked. It is a little more complicated so let me try and explain. I have an animation of two doors opening and closing. From frame 35 - 65 the doors open, on frame 65 I have text, then from 66 - 96 the doors close. Now my problem comes when I want to change pages. I need the animation on frames 66 - 96 to start playing when any other button is clicke except for the one that opens that page. I have the delay on the buttons and it is working fine but i have no idea how to test if the other buttons are clicked.

Is there anyway to combine these two functions?I'd like to play the animation "num=3" on clip load AND on click/release I'd like it to open a url. All of this is inside a movieclip button.
onClipEvent (load){ num = 3;}
AND
onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.myurl.com");
