I want to load six seperate .swf's into the main movie while the main movie loads too. So in simpler words, i want to be able to load all of the swf's the same time i am loading the main swf.
View 2 Replies- i have 3 separate movie clips (a,b,c)
- my main movie is (a) and when i click a button there, it will go to external movie (b)
- under external movie (b) there's a movie clip that includes my animation and content button
- if i click on the content button on movie (b), external movie (c) will pop up [ it will not replace movie (b) but will just overlap it, it's like a small pop up ]
i did the actionscript and when i'm testing external movie (b), it's working... it's showing/popping up movie (c) but when i tried it on the main movie (a), the movie (c) is not popping on the (b) err, sorry if it's a bit confusing / how i explained it. but hopefully somebody will get the idea. and it won't also return on the main movie (a) when i click on a link from the external movie.
I am making a Flash portfolio for a college class. I am trying to make it when I click on a button, it will load an external .swf. When I click on another button, it will replace the previous .swf.I have it working, but the code is sloppy, .Also, within cleaning up the code, is there a better way to load the first external .swf when the main movie loads?
Code:
// FULL MENU ACTIONSCRIPT //
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.*;[code].........
I have a button that I want to have load a movie when pressed. It works, howerver, the movie loads in a separate window instead of the the main timeline where I would like it to. How can I correct this? Here's how I have it scripted now:
[Code]...
I am trying to make what I thought would be a very simple random picture display. I have five movie clips named myClip1, myClip2, etc. All are on the first frame of the timeline. Each has this as a movie clip action:
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
_alpha = 0;
}
The frame also has an action like this:
Code:
nClipMax = 5;
// nClipMax being the number of movie clips
this["myClip" + Math.ceil(Math.random()*nClipMax)]._alpha = 100;
When I test this the background (an image) displays but nothing else, the movie clips stay transparent. I have tried several variations without any luck.I am mainly an asp and net developer that uses flash periodically so be gentle.
I have made a Flash image gallery that is working just fine. I'm preloading the thumbnails and loading the main images only when these are clicked for display, in order to save load time. The problem comes when the user configures say 100 images to be shown in the gallery. In this case the page containing the gallery freezes until all the thumbnails are loaded. My question would be: is there any solution to load the rest of the page first? Or load everything in parallel assigning the page content a higher priority?
View 4 RepliesI am diving in to learn AS3 and converting my site over to AS3. The majority of my code is for my navigation in my main movie that loads external swf files. Here is what I have and I don't know where to start to convert it. I know I need to do this in steps. So the audio is not important now or my other swf files.

how to link the main movie to the preloader, so it counts the load and loads the main movie when it's done?
View 1 Repliesi think i may have a challenge for you. I would like to have a flash movie load to a random keyframe in a timeline when the page loads. Basically, i'd like to set up a timeline with say 10 movies. When the page loads, i'd like the flash to randomly select from some predetermined keyframes (obviously where each movie starts) and when that movie ends, jump to another section of the timeline. This way, the loading of the movies is somewhat seamless and it looks like i've made 10 different flash movies.
Even if it's not possible to all load from the same timeline, i'd like to have it play the first movie, then when it reaches an ending frame, it loads another random movie from a directory on the server, and then keeps going and going until it can't stand it anymore.
I just want the flash movie to link to my main homepage after the movie plays. I know this is probably easy, but I have no idea how to do it.

View 6 Replies how to write the code that would allow a link from the html page to load a specific swf in the Flash movie.The flash movie currently has buttons that load the specific SWF into a loader.The user needs to be able to essentially click through that button from the html/url link (not having to hit the flash movie THEN find and click the button.The code in AS3 for the buttons is as follows:
Alpha_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Alpha1911);[code].....
I have 12 movie clip buttons on the main page (3 rows of 4 buttons).When a button is pressed,it gives the answer to a question which remains visible.On this answer screen, there is another button to click for further information. I pointed to this button to go to another frame within the same movieclip (containing the further information).However, this "further information" shows up UNDERNEATH the 12 buttons, and you can't read it.

I would like to scroll a movie clip (my main page itself actually). If I put my mouse to the left it scrolls right, to the right it scrolls left, up it scrolls down, down it scrolls up... seen it on so many pages, still can't find any code for it.

I modified the loadBar from one of the popular preload scripts out there. What I am making is a progressbar, sorta like the ones you see in movie previews. But it doesn't seem to o work quite right.

I have an animated logo swf file that loads and runs once on the home page every time the page loads. The logo has been updated to appear in three different colour schemes. I want one scheme to load and when the page is refreshed or revisited, one of the other colour schemes to load in its place. They can appear in any random order, just a different one to the one that played before reloading.Can someone point me to an answer or tell me how to do it? I have found a way in JavaScript but this only works on plain images, not swf files.
View 6 RepliesI have my main swf embedded into a html page, and what I want is that when a user selects a certain button it unloads my main swf and loads up a different one in the same HTML page.
View 1 RepliesEverything is embedded in an HTML site. The HTML loads a preloader that then loads the actual flash movie. Inside this movie I created a few buttons, inside a scroll bar movie clip. I want the buttons to load a whole new movie inside the same html. The code I'm using in the button is simply:
on(release) {
loadMovie("new_movie.swf", 0);
}
The problem is that it works beautifully in the Flash movie tester but doesn't do anything when tested inside the browser, embedded in the HTML. I think the problem is that the HTML embeds as an object the first movie, the preloader for the menu movie, not the menu movie itself.
I have a modular movie format. All movies load into a shell/base movie. I have a video intro that loads into the loader component in an external movie. This movie in turn loads into the actual main movie.What I'm trying to figure out is when the video intro gets done playing, I want it to move to the the next frame (#3) so it can run a behavior I have there to load another movie in its place.I've tried the "on complete" with several variations to no avail.I have a button that will move you to the frame #3, but I want to make it happen automatically if I could.

View 4 RepliesI am looking for a way to fade in a white movie clip over my main movie when a button is pressed.
(i.e. When you press a button, a white rectangle will fade in over all other layers and then fade out after a couple of seconds. This is to make it look like the different pages are fading in and out without having to build the transition over and over again.)

View 8 RepliesI have a flash banner that includes a movie clip of the logo being animated. I want the logo animation to only run at the beginning of the main "movie". Currently I have to find the length of the entire movie (for ex. 500 frames) then put a key frame in at the 500th frame of the logo movie clip. I know there has to be a correct way to do this...Do I add a frame name at the end of the main timeline and somehow in AS in the logo movie clip say "when you reach X goToAndPlay(1);"?
