ActionScript 2.0 :: Error : Frame=1: Line 5: Clip Events Are Permitted Only For Movie Clip Instances?
Jun 8, 2002
i've tried placing the code in the actions pnel of the mc; on the mc at the main time line and in various other unspeakable places... but i always get the same error warning me that this code can only be used in movieclip instances and that my stupidity levels are reaching dangerous levels. (error: 'Symbol=stage_mc, Layer=actions, Frame=1: Line 5: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances
onClipEvent(enterFrame){'
i fear somebody will reply to this with:'the code goes on the movieclip instance'...at which point i will take up a career in knitting (i knew i shouldn't have given up the course in the first place)

I'm using actionscript 1.0 and 2.0 on flash Pro 8 and keep getting an error when I test the movie. Here is the error:

I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

I'm not sure why it says that when I export the movie. I read that it may be because the actionscripts in the keyframe and not in the move, though that isnt the case here. Below is the code for my button.
on (release) {
getURL("JavaScript:liveChat();");
}

I was following a tutorial off a site to build my title menu. I followed everything to the T and the ActionScript 2.0 is giving me 2 of the same errors Mouse events are permitted only for button instances, on 2 of my layers. below is the action script2 code
1. invisible button layer
on (rollOver) { gotoAndStop (1); }
2. ECHOTRAK BUTTON
stop (); on (rollOver) { gotoAndStop (2); }
my question is how do i make my button for my drop down menu work. an instance is a label correct if so were does it exist in this code. I believe its telling me I'm missing my frame labels to be included somewhere in this code the site i used was on this site

I created a dropdown menu from a tutotial I found on the net but when I place it inside a scene so that I can use it has errors which were not there when I tested the movie clip. It keeps going mouse events are permitted for button instances only. This is the same clip that I can't link my scenes to.

I have a button that is called to the stage using AS. When the user releases that button, a global variable is populated and the pageShell movie clip is removed and re-attached using the new variable info. When I run the movie, I get the following in the output panel: **Error** Mouse events are permitted only for button instances on (release:<name>){ I'm not sure why this is happening because the symbol being used (<idname>) is a button.

I would like play head of a movie clip to return to a certain frame of that clip so a MC inside it would loop. I now have: stop(); as the action.

it isn't such a big problem bur for a beginner like me it is.I have a movie clip called "Lion_beginning_mc", inside of it I have 3 Key Frames and Inside each and one of them I have different shapes.For example:Key Frame number 01 - DogKey Frame number 02 - CatKey Frame number 03 - MouseI want to move this movie clip "Lion Beginning_mc" form Key frame number 1 to Key frame number 20.I want the Dog,Cat and a mouse to change between each other only once while moving from Key Frame number 1 to 20.And then when the movie clip "Lion Beginning_mc" reaches his goal another movie clip or a frame (with a shape) will start.

if there is a way to use movie clip instances with FOR loops (yeh I'm not skilled with OOP so I premade mc's instead using loadMovie :for example I made manual SwapDepth function between movieclips, I have hero1_mc, hero2_mc,...,hero6_mc and enemy1_mc,..., enemy12_mc. The code looks something like this:
Code:
if (_root.hero1_mc._y > _root.hero2_mc._y) {
tempDepth1 = _root.hero1_mc.getDepth();
tempDepth2 = _root.hero2_mc.getDepth();[code].....
...and so on, code works fine but if I were to write all compares manually it will be thousand lines of code to check each movie clip with each other.So I was wondering is there any way to put those movie clip instances hero1_mc, hero2_mc... into FOR loop like (code doesn't work, if there could be a way to replace numbers with variables):
Code:
for (i=1; i<18; i++) {
for (j=1; j<18; j++) {
if ("_root.hero"+i+"_mc" > "_root.hero"+j+"_mc") {
.......
so I don't have to type all combinations D: so far I haven't found any way to do so, is there any way to make something similar with FOR loop and movie clips? I'm working on my project with AS2.

have button listener code on main timeline: Code: endPanel.playAgain.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playAgain); which lets my button within a clip call a function (function is on main timeline as well) later, that clip advances through its frames and the button seems to be losing it's listener code. the button still has the same instance name and is persistent throughout the clip. why is it only recognizing the code when the clip is on the first frame? You would assume that an instance name would retain it's listener code throughout the timeline no?

It's me again and I'm running into a problem. So, I have this movie clip that is nested inside multiple movie clips. I want to tell Flash to perform an action when that movie clip hits another movie clip in the main timeline. It's just collision detection for a game using the hitTestObject code. I was thinking of using MovieClip(root), but that won't work since it's nested so much.

I have a movie clip that is simply a rectangle with no stroke color and a fill color of red. I applied a glow filter with a green color and it glows. So far so good. I pulled another instance of the same MC and changed the instance's color to blue by changing the tint. Then I applied the green glow filter but the glow is blue and not green!
I pulled another instance of the MC and changed the instance's color to yellow by adjusting the Advanced effect from the properties of this instance. Then I applied the green glow filter but the glow is yellow and not green! Somehow when I change the instance's color through tint or advanced the glow filter does not work as expected. What is the proper way to change a MC's instance color and apply a filter to it?

I'm creating an XML custom card game and am at the point of building the deck and making them draggable so the user can drag and drop them on top of another card.how to build the deck and put multiple instances of the movie clip that resides in the library, I just cannot figure out a way to make each one of the cards draggable. What currently is happening is the card on top of the deck is the only one that will drag, even if I click on the card below it. I have researched setChildIndex(), but I don't think I am using it correctly.
Another issue I'm having is when the user clicks the click_btn (named for testing only) to build the deck it takes a while to build it, can that be sped up any? Then once the user clicks the first card to drag it there is another long wait?
Document Class (CardGame.as)
package library
{
import flash.display.*;[code].....
The xml file actually has 64 activity card entries and 41 event card entries, but I trimmed it down to make it easier.

I want different instances of the same movie clip to have different functions.
First movie clip:
Code:
myMovieClip.onRelease=function(){gotoAndPlay(16);}
That works!
But:
Code:
secondInstanceOfmyMovieClip_mc.onRelease=function(){gotoAndPlay(30);}
doesn't become a clickable movie clip.
Yes, I have given it the appropriate instance name. The above is the only code I have added so do I need something else to get the second bit to work?

For example if I wanted to do something like make a function which is used to spawn multiple instances of an enemy movie clip.[code]do this a specified number of times.How would I go about doing something like this? And what is the syntax for referring to these generated movie clips from outside of the movie clip (so i could do things like remove them, change x/y,alpha, ect, individually)I really just don't have an intuition for how movie clips actually work in actionscript, and its been holding me back a great deal.

I've got a couple instances of the same movie clip on the stage. Via actionscript, I want to apply a tween to both instances. Then, when you click on the instance I want its tween to stop, but not affect the other instance. Does that make sense?

What my team is trying to do right now is build a game. It is a game where the user can build their own bike from different parts, and then test it in other challenges.
Right now I'm at the stage where they are building the bike. The first thing I'm trying to set up, is allow the user to push 3 different buttons that will change the appearance of the tires. I have the bike on a movie clip, then the tires on another movie clip within that, and then three different types of tire movie clips within that tires clip (make sense? bike>tires>3 tire clips). So I think the easiest thing would be is to somehow script each button on the root frame to just swap out the instance of the tire (the three types are: thick, aerodynamic, and trick).

I am trying to add around 20,000 instances of a single small movie clip (HexTile) from the library into a container Sprite using actionscript. The problem is it loads immediately and it loads very slowly, so I would like to know if there is a way to preload it? The class that adds the movie clip library symbol (World) is not the document class, nor is it referenced from the document class. I have tried dragging an empty sprite linked to World, and I have tried exporting it to other frames as well is preloading it as it's own .swf...

I have a movie clip 'sliderMc' which contains two other clips 'slider' and 'groove'. I've used actionscript to make the 'slider' clip move along the 'groove' and display the value of the at each point in a text field. The idea is to have a slider object that i can use multiple times. I want a situation whereby I can create instances of 'sliderMc' so that I'll be able to move the slider on the individual clips and have each slider update different variables which would then be sent to an XML file or php. Im able tp talk back and forth between php and xml with no problem; The issue I'm facing is that after creating multiple instances of 'sliderMc', I'm not able to give the 'slider' and 'groove' movie clips different instance names without changing the instance names of all other 'slider' and 'groove' instances of 'sliderMc'. Which in turn makes it difficult to distinguish between the different sliders in actionscript.

I have a flash project consisting of a single frame in the main time line. Upon user interactions many movie clips fade into the stage. My problem is that i am unable to continue working on these animations when i set the movie clips 1st frame to zero opacity. What is the correct way to access my movie clip instances when I am unable to simply double click on them?
