with this. I have a button, it functions like this
[Code]...
I want this action stop at a certain frame. So nothing happens when you click a button when it reached a certain frame.
I have an mc placed on the main stage that I'm trying to control through a separate button. I want the mc to play until a certain frame number is reached and then stop. I've got the following actionscript on the button instance:
Code:
on(rollOver){
if (mc._currentframe == 10){
mc.stop()
[Code]....
This is not working at all - the mc is not stopping at frame 10, just looping continuously
im trying to make a simple text input field, where a user can input a fixed number of chars (this bit isnt the problem). And can only make a certain amount of new lines. This bit is the problem. Currently a user can keep pressing return and make the text field as large as they wish, and i need to basically stop any input say it reaches 8 lines.
Ive looked at numLines which states is readOnly but does something odd if u set it to a number. What its doing is not allowing my text field to change size at all. I have some code that repositons my text field and a clip underneath as it grows. Defining numLines stops this working which confuses me further:)
Im know i can check against numLines so when its goign to go greater then to stop inout. But im not sure on how to actually stop the input if that makes sense.
I'll try express this as easily as I can: I have an input text box (call the instance whatever you want). What it does is when you type a word, it makes another movie clip (let's say the instance is MORPH) go to a certain frame. The code is simple, but I'll give it to you to give you a better idea:
[Code].....
check is just a light that turns green if the word is complete, so ignore that. Whenever the MORPH object goes to, say "Earth", it plays an animation and afterwards, it hit's a gotoAndStop(1); code, stopping it at the first frame. What the problem is, say, you type earth, it goes to the EARTH animation, but before the animation finishes and goes back, you type EARTH again and it skips straight to the start of the animation. It looks very rough and bad.
What I want is, say I type Earth and the animation plays, and before it finishes the animation, and I type EARTH again, it waits until morph get's back to frame 1. So yeah, to delay a function until a certain frame is reached. Oh, and another thing. Is there a way to make a button click with AS2? Pretty much when it makes contact with another object, it... clicks (whatever it does to reach the DOWN frame and stay there until the other object moves off).
I have a circle on my main timeline that rotates as the the timeline plays. I would like to have the timeline stop on a certain frame when a certain button is pressed. So basically, i would like to to a button to play through until it reaches a certain frame. It seems like the most basic thing, however, I cant do itHere is my code so far:
green_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playGreen);
function playGreen(event:MouseEvent):void
{

i have created a movieClip in the authoring enviornment. i dynamically get it to play and then it pauses at frame 20. how do i dynamically tell when frame 20 has been reached and get the next code executed?

Inside the movieclip mc2 i created another movie clip at frame10 now if i clik the the mc1 on first frame The movie clip should goto and stop at tenth frame
View 4 Repliesi'm very new at flash and finally ended all the work i wanted to do here. now i just need to had the actions so it will run properly. basically i just need it to stop in each frame and run the animation of the movie clip on that frame. if it's i can put the project here so you can see what and were i need to had the actions.
View 1 RepliesI have four movie clips (.f4v) in 4 frames in a movie with watch buttons.. This movie has them been imported into a main movie container that has next and previous buttons. However if i play a movie then hit next frame, the movie continues to play in the background. The code below shows one of the actionscripts for a movie clip and then the main actionscript in the main movie.[code]...
View 1 RepliesIf I removeChild frame animated Movieclip, will it automatically stop running the frames inside it? Actually without calling mc.stop();
View 2 RepliesI have 5 frames in which a different song will be playing, this is the code i used on each frame:
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();mySound.load(new URLRequest("frameone.mp3"));mySound.play();
If im on frame 1 and click on the navigation button to see frame 2, both songs on these frames play simultaniously. how can i stop the background song on frame 1, and have frame 2 playing?
why my "nieuws.swf' is not going to frame 2 or not showing at all when i press the button with the second piece of code on it? The nieuws.swf has a stop on frame 1 and on frame 2. I can see it right away when i take away the first stop. I use the function playNieuws, to make it all happen.

Using MX 2004. I would like to play the entire movie twice, then start playing a third time until frame 30 and stop.
View 1 Repliesat first, I thought I could manage this myself searching the forums about "preloader" but none of the solutions seem to work. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm using the FLVPlayer with an external file. What am I looking for?
1. Well, the preload code for frame 1 that makes sure the external F4V (movie.f4v in the same dir) is loaded 100% before it jumps to frame 2 where the movie should start playing...
2. If possible, a progress bar.
I want my MovieClip to play from frame 5 to frame 30 and then stop. How can I do this?
View 5 RepliesI'm working on a Flash CS5 file, with action script 3. I have a layer with all the audio for each frame. When I click the Next button, the audio from the last frame plays over the audio of the current frame. The only code I have in flash is:
stop()
btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK� forward);
function forward(event:MouseEvent) {[code].....
wondering if this is possible. I have a button and want it to play from let's say frame 10 to frame 15I'm starting with this:
on (release) {

A function I wrote that is supposed to respond to a mouse click event...is not being reached. The following is the code exercpt:
Code:
public function Stuff()
{
txtAreaMain = new TextArea;
var rtmpNow = "rtmp://compName/Toy";
[Code]....
I placed the button in the FLA file directly and named it 'btnSubmit'. The sendMsg function is within the 'Stuff' class and the instantiation of the button object is also done within the 'Stuff' function. The doSharedObject function is called without a problem. I wrote the 3 trace statements just to confirm if the compiler traverses those lines..., and they are indeed printed to the output, so I don't know why the 'sendMsg' function is not called.
I am sliding a movieclip using easing equations. I need a loop that that steps through the current _y value of that clip and when it reaches the desired position(_yvalue -721) tell another clip to start animating(click_mc) here is what i have so far

big_mc.cdown.onRelease = function(){
_root.big_mc.slideTo(-130, -720, 1.7, "easeinoutquint");
for(var i = big_mc._y; i > -721; i--){
trace(i);

I am creating a countdown timer in AS3 and ive found some code and changed a few things to get it to do what I need but I also need to stop the code from running once it the timer has counted down to the desired time i.e 00:00:00:00, as the current code means the countdown timer then startes to count up once its gone past the date, stop the code running once the date is reached ?
Code:
var endDate:Date = new Date(2010,06,14);
var countdownTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
countdownTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, updateTime);

I had a timeline with 3 sound effects, back to back, with a this.stop(); at the end of each one (...so there's three separate sections of a timeline, with a label at the start of each).... and when I'd play it (from the start, for example), it would play the first sound effect (as expected), and stop before the second section (where the next sound effect was)... yet the second sound effect would trigger!
Even when watching it in 'Test Movie' mode, I'd see that it stopped before the next section, yet the second sound triggered (many frames before the stop command I tried putting more space between the sections... and putting the samples on different layers... yet it ALWAYS triggered the second sample, even though the frame it started on was never close to being reached!
i have a function that has a tween, and i want to remove the tweened MC once reached y = 600, but i cant do that. i tried ENTER_FRAME, but i got errors here is the code that doesnt work

If you push the right button (yes I know that the buttons should switch place) it plays to frame 25, if you push it again, it will go forward to frame 50 and so on. It's 25 frames between every stop. The whole thing is 100 frames and when you're at frame 100 you comes back to frame 1 again. Problem: If I want to reverse this, example: when I'm at frame 50 and push the other button i want to go from frame 50 > frame 25 and it will stop there.
View 14 RepliesI have three buttons, btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, and two movie clips, image_1,image_2. The names listed btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, image_1,image_2. are all instance names. All buttons and movie clips are on their own layer in a single frame on the main time line. the movie clips have a stop action on the first and last frame, with a frame label, on the first frame in the sub time line. For image_1 the frame label is image_1_1 and for image_2 the frame label is image_2_1.
I would like btn_1 and btn_2 to control the movie clips, image_1,image_2. Either button should be able to close the other buttons movie clip and play it's own movie clip. Also i am trying to make the movie clips themselves have the ability to be closed by clicking on the movie clip image area that is playing. Both movie clips when not playing hide behind the appropriate button with an alfa of 0.
When playing they expand to the middle of the window and are at 100% alfa, using a tween. The third button, btn_3 should only be visible when one or the other movie clisp are playing. btn_3 dose nothing else but this for now. As of now, my movies continuously loop and btn_3 is always visible. I can't seem to figure this out. my code for this action is:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I also want the timer to stop counting when I die or finish. I've tried

if (platforms.currentFrame == platforms.totalFrames -1) {
timer.stop();

which didn't work.
im stuck with preloading sounds. i want to preload mp3s into my movie, but the thing is that they shouldnt start playing when completly/partially loaded.
i want the mp3 to get completely loaded in the background(but shouldnt play as yet) when some animation is completed and scene 2 is reached the mp3 should start playing.
