View 1 RepliesI have an object (button) on frame 2 of my timeline, with the name btnMenu. When clicked, i want to return to frame 1 in the timeline. Actionscript 3 does not allow me to bind the eventlistener to the button from my code on frame 1.Layout:layer 1: Actions, only on frame 1layer 2: btnMenu, only on frame 2 (with an empty frame in front)Code:
stop(); // don't automatically go to frame 2
btnMenu.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function() { gotoAndStop(1); }
(and other code to go to frame 2 obviously)The error i get is "can't find method/property of object that is null" (roughly translated).
So say I've got a series of movieclips all named "movieclip##" where the ## is 01-10. Is there an easy way to concatenate a reference to a movieclip through a separate number variable? As in, a function that receives a two-digit number, and uses that two digit number with the base name of the movieclip to perform an action.Specifically, I'm looking to use tweener to perform an animation on each letter of a sentence that's been broken apart into different movieclips. If I have to write code that specifically references each letter we're talking 100+ lines/function, and I'm trying to keep my overhead down.
View 8 RepliesI have tried this a dozen different ways and I really am at my wits end.
I have a presentation that works like a powerpoint. Everything is working as it should, except one part. I have a movie clip with an instance named slides, and I want to actively display which frame number you are in this move clip.
I have tried more than one why but I see no reason why this should not work:
var frameNum:Number = this.slides.currentFrame;
this.frameText.text = "P�quina " + frameNum + " de 173";
It appears to work at first, but does not update when I navigate the slides. It constantly says 1. Before I just added a function to the back and next buttons to frameNum++ and frameNum--, but after I created the Menu I would prefer it to automatically detect what frame it is on.
I created the following AS for a particular frame
Code:
cnx.addEventListener(CNXConnection.DIGITAL, onDigital_10);
function onDigital_10(e:DigitalEvent)
{
[code]....
While debugging everything works properly if I'm testing that frame.But, pushing a button in another frame, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at "frame number:raw number"
I'm quite sure that the problem is that the variable e.Join changes its corresponding e.Value pushing a particular button in another frame (as must be). Any ideas how to link that information to the frame that create the error?
I am trying to use this if statement with a frame label instead of a frame number. I believe that _currentframe is looking for a number only. Is there a different command that looks at frame labels instead of frame numbers?
View 1 Repliesis it possible to find the frame number of frame label with AS if a button is rolled over, the timeline jumps to a label - which plays a set of 3D rendered frames to 'raise' and element, once a user rolls out of the 'button' area the button is meant to 'lower' - which can be done by simply playing backwards to the previous label.

Is there a simple way to get the frame number of a frame label?
I have a bunch of labels on a long timeline, but want to create some calculations based on the number of frames between labels.
I would like to use a conditional to determine if my location is before or after a frame.However, to make it portable I would like to base it on the label name.e.g.
if (_currentframe < "p2")
however, "p2" is the label of a frame.So how do I get the frame number from the frame label? I am making something that when it detects a click, jumps to the next point in the movie. These P1,P2, etc. will be distributed through the movie.
'if jump detected'{
if (_currentframe < "p2"){
gotoAndPlay("p2");
} ELSE IF (_currentframe < "p3") {
gotoAndPlay("p3");
I guess the problem with this is what if the one of the movies isn't as long and doesn't have a "p4" location for example.Probably I can handle this case when I am setting up the variables that contain the frame number of "p2", "p3", etc... checking agains the max number of frames.
Can a rollover go to a different frame number...

View 1 RepliesI'm stuck on this annoying bug of Flash:to animate a character i have different graphic symbols of hand positions inside a single container graphic symbol; that way instead of having to swap different symbols while animating and tweening, i just have to change the number on the "single frame" input box on the properties of the symbol.
It worked fine a few sessions ago, but now it won't let me change the frame number if there's a tween before that keyframe; tha keyframe isn't participating on any tween, and may even have some frames between the previous tweening one. The only way it will change is if i remove the first tween or add a blank keyframe between them, wich of course isn't an option when animating... i know it would work if i add a new layer and continue there, but it'll add a lot of mess to the already busy timeline.
The strange thing is that it remains working on some frames, from the previous session, and if a cut and paste them i can change the frame number freely; but if i try to build a secuence from scratch, it won't let me, even on a new document.
