ActionScript 2.0 :: Delay Loop - Loading These Swfs Into An Mc Of Another Fla
Feb 14, 2006
Since my earlier post might not have been clear I have made some changes to the uploaded example Fla. I am struggling with the delay from the xml slideshow in this tut: [URL] Everything works fine when publishing the swf from the slideshow flas. The problem happens when loading these swfs into an mc of another fla (the "mockup fla" in my example) The example mockup swf loads 2 slideshow swf�s . Swf 1 contains 3 jps and swf 2 contains 1 jpg. When loading swf 1 first, the only jpg for that slideshow is loaded (yes, only loading one pic for a slideshow seems strange but this is just to clarify the issue). Everything works fine so far. Now I load the the first slideshow swf with the corresponding button. The 3 jpg�s load and loop with a delay like planned. All good. Now load the 2n�d swf again....... now the single jpg always loop reloads. Why is this happening?

I'm trying to load external SWFs in a for loop, and I have this problem that is really eating me: In the event handler I need to know the filename of the SWF that was loaded, but I can't obtain this.
function loadManySWFs(arrayOfFileNames:Array)
{
for(var i=0; i<arrayOfFileNames; i++)
{

I've spent days working on this code, it seems so simple, but yet it never works. All I'm trying to do is make a loop automatically load person0.swf through person4.swf in the same directory. I've got it set-up so that I can change a single number and it loads up to person[whatever-the-new-number-is].swfCurrently it loads the first movie and thats it. I also get this error: "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at Menu()"Here is the code
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.URLRequest;

Currently I am trying to load 5 different swfs in order. Everytime a button is selected I want to move to the next swf. And once I reach 5 the next image should be 1 (again - loop). I started with a code like this on frame 1 in "scene 1":
Code:
gotoAndPlay(50);
Stage.align = "T";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.j = 1;
where "_root.j = 1" ----- "1" is the first swf loaded. But it was stuck on 1.
My newbie skills figured this out so to avoid zero, but it's random. And things repeat too closely.
Code:
gotoAndPlay(50);
Stage.align = "T";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.j = random(4)+1;
My Question: What can "_root.j" equal so that 1,2,3,4,5 cycles? I have to work within these parameters cause this template is deep.

I have a main fla file which loads an external swf into an empty movieclip on the main timeline which works fine but I want a button in the external swf to load another external swf into another empty movie clip on the main timeline.eg. start.swf loads UKEIAMap.swf into (empty movie clip within start.swf) MapLoader_mc then a button havant_b within UKEIAMap.swf needs to load HavantProjectSheet.swf into (empty movie clip within start.swf) ProjectSheetLoader_mc without unloading UKEIAMap.swf

I want to repeatedly add a movie to the stage using add child so have created a loop to add it 30 times. How can I make it so they aren't all added at the same time. I'd like to be able to set an interval of time between them being added.

Now, before I get slated for asking this question, I have searched for the answer in this & other forums, but I still can't get my head around this.I need to have a delay built in within a "for" loop, so that it works something like this:
for(x=0;x<10;x++)
{
// code that generates button - I have this working

Flash - 8 : Above is an example of what I would like to do/have done. I've gotten as far as loading the "loaded.swf" into the "start.swf" but my problem is I'd love to use that little loading action I made earlier without copying and pasting into the new movie the same actions for a different link. So, how do I load "loaded2.swf" into "loaded.swf" via the link in "loaded.swf"?

I'm querying Rotten Tomatoes' API for movies listed in an XML document. The problem I'm having is, whist iterating through and querying for each movie I'm hitting RT's API limit which, in turn, is throwing an IO error. Is there a way I can delay execution in a loop for about a second or so, to avoid this?

I have 100 dynamically generated clips on a stage.
I want to remove the clips one by one over the course of a few seconds.
Can I put a delay into a while loop to make it only loop every 50 ms or so?

possible to have a timer that works inside a 'for' loop? I have created a timer but it only activates each time the frame is run through. I have a for loop with i++ so that I can put objects on the page with a small pause between them. The i++ loop puts all the movieclips on the page simultaneously. I need a delay and a loop because the shuffled arrays will be reset each time the frame refreshes.

(Flash 5/Flash MX). How do I delay/pause using actionscript? I have tried using a for loop for a time delay like this:
for(i=0;i<1000000;i++){
}
But it does not work?
Flash gives an error like:
Time-consuming actionscript.
Abort running script?
OR the loop simply does not produce a noticeable delay.
How I can introduce a time-delay or a pause using actionscript?

A couple weeks ago, I was searching for a delay function that I could put on a frame and it would hold at that frame for a given period of time.I came close to finding it, but what I found used setInterval and I wasn't able to stop it from looping.Here is something that I am quickly starting to love, it's not mine, but I don't know who's it is, it was on a piece I was working on at work (although this edition of it is partly mine, as I have adapted it to my specific needs).first frame
Code:
//wait function
function wait(a) {

I am new to flash. I can't seem to decifer the script examples in the help files. After a lot of trial and error the following codes works great. It delays playback on the video for the proper amount of time. The only problem is when the playback loops (like it should) the codes executes again. I only want to execute the code the first time thru.

Below summarizes the problem. Whats being used:
Flash CS4 10.0.2
Actionscript 2.0
Whats going on in the Timeline:
I have a embedded movie in the timeline. Also in this timeline is a actionscript delay. When the animation starts, the timeline reaches the embedded movie and plays then it reaches the end frame with the following actionscript delay.
stop();
var interval:Number = setInterval(
function():Void {
play();
clearInterval(interval);
}, 10000);
The delay works perfectly. When the timline loops a second time the delay fails to work. So the animation works perfectly one time and falls every time the animation loops. The weird part is if I remove the embedded movie layer the delay works perfectly on the following loops. So it appears that this delay is deactivated by the embedded movie!

I'm writing an upload program to upload multiple files.

I have a clip that's 1450 pixels wide, masked to 725 - basically a left side, and a right side. The left side will contain navigation for a portfolio, which when clicked, the movie plays 10 frames during which a movie clip called portholder will slide over from the right, and load the appropriate movie clip. Here's the code on one of the bits of navigation:
[Code]....
Essentially, I'm trying to replicate the effect Your Majesty is using. I'm sure there's a way of using actionscript to slide portholder back and forth, instead of using animation, but alas I'm not a scripter (as you can tell!). But what I'd REALLY like to do is to tell the container clip to wait until it's fully in position before loading whatever.swf, as opposed to having a movie already in progress moving across the screen. Basically tell portholder "Wait until your x value is 0 before loading whatever.swf" I thought about using the setInterval, as recommended to someone else on these forums, so tried:

I have a rotating menu that when clicked rotates and loads in swf movies, OnClick.
The problem I seem to be having is that because the swf movies load in on click it seems to be causing the rotation of the menu not to run smooth.
Question: Is it possible to get the swf movies to load in once the action of the click has completed its action. some kind of 2 second delay before the movies load in??
what happens: you can click or mouse scroll through the menu, when you click, the action repositions the selected Item (ActiveItem) in the center and resizes larger. this works great, is it possible after this action is complete to then load in the swf movies?
to see how the movie runs at the moment this is the link: [URL]
you will see at the moment onClick the movies load straight away which makes the rotation not smooth when rotating around.
I can't seem to get the mouse scroll to work the same function as the click at the moment also.....thats for another day
