ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Buttons In One Swf That Load Another Swf And Also Give Instructions To Begin Playing From A Certain Frame In That Swf
Apr 21, 2004
What I'm trying to do is create buttons in one swf that load another swf and also give instructions to begin playing from a certain frame in that swf. The target swf has a preloader on frame 1 and then a movie clip that contains a video in frame 2. Depending on which button the user presses the video will be cued up ready to play at different frames. I think it may need an if statement ie if x=34 then goto frame 34, but I can't seem to pass the variables to the loaded swf. In the zip file is an example of what I'm trying to do.

What is the best way to create buttons to give content a scrolling function.The functionality is provided by ScrollPane, where content, images etc. can be used and scrolled but aesthetically buttons are preferred.There is actionscript for creating scrollable text fields with buttons, but it requires constant clicking and only applies to text. Just mentioning this if there is something similar to attain the functionality of ScrollPane for content.

I hate to be a total newb but the deadline for this game is coming up way too soon for me to figure it out myself.This game is for uni and it is my first experience with making a flash game and my second flash project total. Sorry.All I want to do is create a second instructions page from what I already have but it will not play properly. The syntax is correct, I created the object before I called it but I am still getting Error #1009.Here is the related code:
Code:
startButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButton);
rulesButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButton);
[code].....

I have been trying to create a animation with horizontal scroll to begin on mouseOver. There are a set of 8-10 swfs movie, which I am calling though a xml file into the main scroll movie clip. I would like to animate and call the swfs in such a way that they drop into the screen and stay on a 800px width movie screen, on mouseOver the horizontal scroll should begin.I have seen a lot of threads for the sroll, in all the threads the movie is scrolling and on MouseOver it stops.

I have 2 buttons in a flash movie with the following codes. They open a new URL that also contains a flash movie and it sends the variable "nFrame" and a value.
Button1:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("goats.html?nFrame=1");
}
Button2:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("goats.html?nFrame=2");
}
When the new URL opens I want the flash movie to begin at a particular frame depending on what variable "nFrame" is equal to. I tried placing this code in the first frame to do it but it didn't work, the movie just loops and loops and doesn't stop at any frame.
Code:
if(nFrame=1) {
gotoAndStop("cheese");
} else {
gotoAndStop("wine");}
}

Stuck a random load swf script on main timeline:
Code:
_root.container.loadMovie("work"+(random(3)+1)+".swf");
Then on each but the appropriate code - this is for button 3:
Code:
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "work3";
[Code]....
When the flash is loaded it loads in the SWF randomly fine. BUT!... when I go to select another item from the menu, I need to select the button for work1.swf first before I can then go select button for work2.swf load...

I'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?

I have about 30 very simple external swfs--each contain an image with tweened fades and rollover-to-pause/rollout-to-resume actions. They're loaded onto the main timeline one after another as a slideshow. It's an auto-play and loop: each image swf loads the next one on to the empty movie clip after it is done playing. (i.e., swf1's last frame loads swf2, and so on.)
This set up was fine until I realized that I should have a place-marker--something that indicates where you are in the slideshow. No other functions (go to next/previous) for the marker. I just need to show graphically that you're seeing the 5th of 30 images. The graphic is 30 dark dots that get filled in as you progress.
To do this, I figured it would be easiest if I designate 1 frame per image (=one swf) on the main timeline. So, frame 1 will load 1.swf and when 1.swf finishes, frame 2 will load 2.swf. This will make it easy for me to color in the appropriate dots according to where we are in the slideshow.
What I think I need to figure out is to "pause" at each of the frames on the main timeline until the loaded swf is done playing. They're all different in length--some are 50 frames and some are 90 frames long.
I almost had it figured out from massive googling, but I honestly don't understand it well enough to tweak what I've found to do what I want it to do.
Also, if there is a way that I can easily make the "place marker" work without changing the way it is currently set up (1 frame in main time line; 30 swfs that load one another), that would be even more awesome!

I'm creating a sequencing module with a bunch of radio buttons in frame 1. When a user clicks the wrong radio button it tells them. When the click the right one it moves them to frame 10. In frame 10 the correct radio button is hidden and the user has to click the next one in order. if they click the wrong one it tells them and if they click the correct one it gives new feedback and advances them to frame 20 and so forth until they get them all in order. Can I add a new event listener to a component in frame 10? how do I cancel out a previous event listener and associated function from frame 1 that was associated with that radio button? The problem I am having is that the script is calling both the frame 1 function on that button AND the frame 10 function on that button. How to correct this?

I have an XML-file.I want to base an menu on my website om this information.Let us say that I have info in the XML-file with the names "About Me", "Articles" and "Video".Then I want three buttons with the text above on them. This is successfully done.The problem is, that I don't know what button I am pressing. To go to the nest page I need to know what button I am pressing.
I've tryed the following:
Code: Select allprivate function buildMenu():void
{
for (var i:int = 0; i < menuArray.length; i++)
{
[code]....
The result is that all the buttons get the name of the last entry in the XML-file. In the case above all the buttons would get the name "Video".

I would like a bit of script that I could attach to some buttons so it looks like they are wobbling slighty on roll over.The atached jpeg shows the basic design of them - opaque with shadows.I would like the movement to be random, i can programme it already to move up and down or whatever, but not so its a differnt movement every time.

I'm making a slide menu that loads a xml file and creates buttons dynamically. Another functionality it has a sliding menu also, and I can't stop it. Heres goes the zip file, which contains .fla and .xml files. What I want to do is when I put the mouse at the top of the mask, the menu stops on the first option, and when I put the mouse at the bottom, the menu stops on the last option. Is it possible? [URL]

I am building a short "introduciton" movie that an orthodontist will show prospective patients. It has 32 pages (frames) each is it's own mc. I have a btn that the user can click and go to a screen that will allow them to choose to dispay or omit 6 of the pages (becasue they may not pertain to their practice). I have no clue how to do this since I am a graphic artist and a novice to Flash. I've watched as many tutorial movies as my brain can handle, and it's about to burst! From what I've read, I think I need to use Flash cookies (local), so that the choices will be remembered.

i used kirupa's [URL].. tutorial to create a movie with buttons that load external movies and works seamlessly.
my problem is that i want to do the same thing on the external movies that are loaded so to be able to load new external movies on top of them. it does not work and i know its because of the _root script that gets messed up when a new movie is loaded. it has to become _parent or smthing but i can't seem to be able to make it work..

Quick question (I hope) I am switching from as2 to as3.
In as2 I could create a movieClip and give it an eventlistener type functionality and function like so:
myDynamiclyCreatedMc.onEnterFrame = function ()
{
// do stuff
}
How do you do the same thing in as3?

From a webpage, I can specify that a SWF should be loaded with "allowNetworking=internal" and "allowScriptAccess=none" to prevent it from modifying the state of the browser.
Is it possible for SWF A to be loaded with no restrictions, and have A impose those restrictions on a SWF B that it loads?

I have a question about loading external data. When I had all my actionscript export to frame one, it would slow down the preloader and not show up until it was far into the progress bar animation. So I moved everything to frame 2. The problem with that is now my menus which are populated from an xml file are not there when the site starts to play. How can I get my xml data to load on frame one, but leave the .as fils to load in frame 2?
