I want to make a closing sequence for my main menu. I have several button on my main menu. I want to make it so that every time I click a button, a closing sequence (for example a fade out) will be played before going to a new page (frame/label name). How do I do that?
View 1 Replieshow to code a simple load sequence scene. This is how I had it set up in AS2 -I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a 10 frame shape tween in Scene 1. On the 9th frame, I assigned actionscript that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded, and if it is, gotoAndPlay Scene 2, Frame 1. Then have action in frame 10 of Scene 1 that says to gotoAndPlay scene 1 frame 1 of the current scene. This way scene 1 loops until frame 40 of scene 2 is loaded, at that point, scene 2 frame 1 plays.
How could I set this up in AS3? Here is what I tried - I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a MC that is a simple shape tween that loops in the "Scene 1". I'm trying to assign codein "Scene 1" that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded. If it is, gotoAndplay Scene 2 frame 1. If frame 40 of Scene 2 is not loaded, continure to loop the MC unitil it is. Here is the code I've got for the MC in the "Scene 1"

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?

View 1 RepliesI have two buttons when the user selects both buttons I want to display a movie clip. Basically I created a mouse down event to set a variable name for each button. I also created an on enter frame event that is listening when those two variables are true. When they are true I display a movieclip. how can you press two buttons at the same time and the answer is this is for an air app for ios. So the user can have one finger on one button and another finger on another button when both buttons are selected display something.
I had something along these lines:
Code:
private var _isWinActive:Boolean = false;
private var _item1IsSelected:Boolean = false;
private var _item2IsSelected:Boolean = false;

View 1 RepliesOn to the problem: I have a very simple flash, basically just a photo slideshow. The issue I'm having is this: I have a bunch of photos on the timeline, but I have a button on top of everything, just to give viewers the option to skip that particular scene. The button works, but only when the video timeline has reached the very end of the scene. It won't work before the end of the scene. The button actionscript is the most basic of basic:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(scene1)
}
There is probably a better way to do what I'm trying to do, but I simply want to make a variable change its value when I press the arrows keys. For example if I wanted to cycle through weapons, if weapon=0 then the character is holding a certain weapon, then I press the down arrow key and weapon=1 and if weapon=1 the character is holding another weapon. And if I press up weapon=0 again so he's holding the first weapon again. And say there's 8 weapons, if weapon>8 then weapon=0 again so its a cycle. I tried arrow key functions and all they worked for was making a symbol move. I think I knew how to do this stuff in gamemker pretty well but Flash is very different.
View 2 RepliesIm trying to show a new movieclip that only shows up when i press another one.
The movieclips to press are nested inside another movieclip so i need them to call the other movieclip which is in the stage.
To explain better menu1 is inside cont3. Menu_down is in the stage and i need to call it after pressing menu1.
Btw menu1 is showing an external swf also,is there any problem with it?
I'm making a Century club timer, it is to execute on pressing the start button, and then run until finished (our paused, but thats not implemented yet). To keep the timer accurate I had to use the Date() function.The timer() function is used to update the displayed time. I tried using a while-loop for this, but then the whole thing would just freeze. :S So instead a use a infinite timer that ends when currentTime == targetTime.

I have recently received a copy of the Adobe eLearning suite, in particular I hope to use Flash for the majority of my elearning projects.I have been having trouble using the learning interactions that come ready to use with Flash. For example,I placed the drag and drop interaction onto the stage area, but when pressing F12 to preview and use this feature it would not work (could not drag the movie objects), the same goes for all the other features I can select radio buttons etc but when pressing the 'cheack answer' button nothing happens.Even though these interactions come with instructions which i have followed, it still does not seem to work. I do not wish for them to be scored, I just want the user to receive correct or incorrect feedback.
View 1 RepliesI would like to be able to go from an html page by pressing an enter link then go to a 'preLoader' page which would then automatically load the mainPage. Originally my preLoader was the 'index' page for the site and had a button that would start the loading process to the main site which was entirely a Flash site. But I decided to add an html page chock-a-block with searchable text so people looking for the services this site offered could actually find it and make that the 'index' page. Anyway, I would like the preLoader page to start loading the next page automatically with no user events like mouse or keyboard events needed.

View 2 RepliesCan an action be initiated through pressing a key combination? Here's a snippet instructing a MovieClip to move right when SHIFT+Z are pressed...
Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, testFn);
function testFn(event:KeyboardEvent){
if(event.keyCode == 16 && 90){
dot.x += 5;
}
}
Only the first key is recognized, i.e. the dot moves when SHIFT only or SHIFT+Z together are pressed; the swf's ignoring the second key.
