I have spent many hours trying to nut this one out.. I have an animated button which I am animating using a tween class. It works fine, my problem is this, I need to jump to another Scene after the animation has finished.
View 7 RepliesIt seems to be the case that the MOTION_FINISH event fires of prematurely in the Flash Tween class. I've heard that it is not the best tween engine to use, but this seems like a particularly egregious. I am using "Strong.easeOut" for the motion. What are some alternative tween engines that people like?

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var mytween:Tween = new Tween(ball_mc,"_x",Strong.easeInOut,-320.10,47.90,5,true);
mytween.onMotionFinished = function() {
var mytween2:Tween = new Tween(ball_mc,"_x",Strong.easeInOut,47.90,-320.10,5,true);
} mytween2.onMotionFinished = function() {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
It does the first and second tween but doesn't do the gotoAndPlay function?
For some reason i'm having problems swapping scenes in my flash movie. At first i put the action in a "actions" named layer and a link to a button. So basicly when scene1 loads the frame 1 action is "stop ();". The viewer clicks on button1 which has a code of;

I want the movieclip in Frame 1 Scene 1 to finish before skipping to Frame 2 Scene 1 im using gotoAndStop("Scene 1", 2); at the end of the MC
View 1 RepliesBasically I'm doing a flash website for my 3D animations. Once my intro animation ends my menu comes up which is within a main movieclip called menustage_mc and within that movieclip is a bunch of movieclips acting as buttons to navigate through the site and their animation.When you press on a button it will move to a particular scene. I'm using multiple scenes so i don't clutter the main timeline for myself. I've read a couple of posts saying that i shouldn't use multiple scenes but there is no explanation as to why. I'm assuming i should add and remove movieclips but i'm very new to actionscript and in particular as3 but that's a different question somewhere down the line.
My problem is that when i click on a button for example sketches, i want to finish playing the menustage_mc animation and then go to the sketches scene. However i'm trying different variations and am not getting any success. There are instances where the animation plays but then doesn't go to the next scene. Another instance is that it goes straight to the selected scene but doesn't finish playing the menustage_mc.So all I really want to do is finish playing the menustage_mc animation before it goes to the correct scene? I have seen things where I can go the menustage_mc and put nextScene(); on the final frame but it's not what i am really aiming to do.
I have 6 scenes, the first scene has 5 pictures that i converted to buttons. each button goes to a different scene to play the appropriate movie clip. right now it shows up with scene 1, then i click on the button and it goes to the appropriate movie clip but after it finishes playing it just goes to the next clip on the next scene, then after it is finished it goes to the next clip on the next scene and so on. i would like to know is there some way i can make the movie clips return to scene 1 after they finish playing?
View 1 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do is when I click on a button, the Tween will scroll to screen to the left and play a video. But if the user clicks on the button again before the tween is done, it seems that the event is being catched twice and will screen to the left twice and play two video instead of one.
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble figuring out the best way to delay a tween if a mc is still tweening? I tried setInterval but couldn't figure out how to make it work at least in this context... i have several functions that might be causing the slider_mc to be tweening at any moment (including this one...), and i need the buttons to respond (eventually) to the users press even if they hammer it... but if they do the tween gets interupted and starts from some uneven _x and gets out of alignment. It should only be moved + or - 100 pixels at a time....

I'm working with some images using the tween to move them. Sometimes the tween seems to stop and quit towards the end (sometimes its fine)
Is there a way to check and ensure the tween is going from from start to finish
I've been fumbling with this issue for a bit. I've got a lovely little tooltip movieclip that follows the user's mouse for a few seconds before it removes itself. My problem is that if there is one already there I remove it, however, I cannot seem to remove the Motion_Finish event and it still fires and possibly deletes a new tooltip. What I want is to essentially put in a line item such as:
var tween(smallhelp_panel).deleteAll();
I saw a tweenlight function killtweensof(mc); However I've used the tweens I've incorporated below throughout my 30k lines of AS3 code.
Here is my tooltip handler. I call it with a simple
Main_Warning("Please don't forget to save!",5);
My movieclip is a 'smallhelp_panel' and I check if it already exists and remove it. However, the alpha and MOTION_FINISH tweens still exist and cause issues with any new smallhelp_panels.
public function Main_Warning( the_text:String, myTimer:int = 4){
if(smallhelp_panel != null){
stage.removeChild( smallhelp_panel );

I have made 2 scenes. I am trying to jump 1scene to next scene you can find source file from here
scene1 is LoderScreen
scene2 is GameScreen and frame label is "start"
I did this gotoAndPlay("start","GameScreen")
But it is showing error/

I want to have an animated button that go's to the next scene and plays. This is the code I have on the button inside the movie clip:
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("rollover");
} on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("rollout");
} on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);
}
For some reason this doesn't work? Is the problem that the code on the button is within a movie clip?
-How would I make it so when my clip gets to a certain frame, it will randomly gotoAndPlay a random frame on a different scene?
-All of the frames that I want it to randomly go to are labeled.
I am making a small website out of flash and I have a photo gallery in a separate scene. I have five photo galleries and so I have five buttons that will lead to those five galleries.
The code of one of the five buttons is
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("Content_Photography");
}
Works great, but the first 10 frames of this new scene "Content_Photography" is an intro and then I would like that it would jump to the corresponding gallery that these galleries will be laid out on the timeline.
What would i put after _root.gotoAndPlay("Content_Photography");?
I know that you are not supposed to target a frame number but here's the deal.I have 2 scenes (Scene 1 and Scene 2). Both scenes are currently the same and I will be customizing them at a later date.The scenes are made up of multiple MC's and I need to target a particular frame. I have named the frame and tried the following script to no avail. When it does work, it goes to the first frame of Scene 2 every time like it is just traveling along the timeline and jumping to Scene 2.[code]

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 need to make it so when the movie clip that is in frame 1 of scene 1 is done it plays frame 2 of my scene 1. How do I do this Im making a cartoon where a characters mouth which is the movie clip which is moving and when it is done moving i want it to go to and plays frame 2 on scene one. Its to late to do everything on the timeline, and I cant just copy the movie clip, i could but I want to just be able to do this go to and play on scene one from the movie clip instead of doing all my work all over again

View 3 RepliesI've just started self-learning Flash, so am not very familiar with it. I tried to do a game e-card and there were some problems which i couldn't find an answer for them after hours googling: I'm using Flash CS5 AS3. So I'm trying to create a button that would lead to another scene, i named it "ok button" (instance - "ok_btn") and the scenes are just "scene 1" , "scene 2"

I've created a movie clip. This movie clip contains a strip of images put together. I use actionscript 3.0 to tween it into position every time a arrow button is pressed. The green space is a mask so it can't be seen until it enters that space. I am only focusing on the right arrow button at the moment.[code]...

Now I am using the Tween Class to move some boxes in my movie, now I can move the first mc and then another mc after the first tween has finished with onMotionFinished but I was hoping someone could help with how do I start the second tween when the first mc has passed a certain _x coordinate. ie starting the second mc moving while the first tween is still moving.
View 1 RepliesIf i have a clip with a bunch of stuff inside it (on layers) like other clips, bitmaps, etc. and perform a tween on that clip (via tween class), the stuff inside the clip seems to alpha at different rates.
For instance, i have a clip with an empty movieclip which loads a bitmap image and on top of the bitmap image, i have a gradient feathered edge (.png) bitmap and on top of that I have some dynamic text (embedded fonts).
The bitmap is supposed to create a feathered edge on the photo but since they alpha at different rates, you always see the hard edge of the photo...
is there a solution like cacheAsBitmap which would let the whole clip alpha at once? If it's cacheAsBitmap, i must be using it incorrectly, b/c it's not working!
Am trying to use the Tween class to scale and move a movieclip. Now the movieclip is within the loader, so I need the motion to be controlled by the percentage loaded. Now the code to move the movieclip to its final position is:
var xscaletween:Tween = new Tween(mstone, "_xscale", Regular.easeOut, mstone._xscale, 220, 6, true);
But this is the final location, I want to be able to change the properties of xscaletween, yscaletween, xmovetween and ymovetween as per percentage loaded.As in, within this final boundary limit of the tween, I want, for example, xscaletween, to scale only till 140 till percentage hits 50. Is this possible?? If not is there a workaround?Or do I have to use new tweens within each percentage limit?
I am trying to understand the thinking behind motion tweening using AS3 (rather than doing it on the timeline).I am trying to create a simple platform game, and while this is simply a learning project, I have an movieclip instance on the stage, and using basic x+5 logic I can get the instance to move left and right on the stage accordingly.Trying to make the instance 'jump' is a bit trickier. This is the code I am using:
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;[code].....
I thought this code would move the instance from it's current y-position and tween it to it's highest jump point. From here I planned to use a MOTION.FINISH event to tell it to tween back to it's original position.Something strage happens though, rather than tween from the current y position and move up, the instance instantly transforms it's position to y+100 and then tween back to the original position. So it kind of turns out that it is the second part of the jumping action that I want to create.
I'm working on a friends site - Lorenshaw.net using CS3 and all of the code for the buttons is pointing to the right scenes yet it goes to the wrong scenes. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I also have some stop actions at the end of each scene. For buttons I'm using On release, gotoAndPlay "Scene, frame number"
