I have run into a snag! I cant target a specific frame after loading swf file.I m creating a continuous slideshow with five separate swfs (movie01.swf , movie02.swf... etc) which load sequentially into one empty movieclip (named - mainMCholder) on the root timeline I control the loaded swfs with 2 buttons next and previous.These buttons simply move up or down a frame (nextFrame/prevFrame) .if I load movie02. swf into my empty movieclip and I m on frame 1 (of 10) and choose to back up to the end of movie01.swf (which would be frame 10 of movie01.swf),I end up on frame 1 of movie01.swf. Unsure why I cant move to last frame of a loaded movie?
//This is the code I've used
loadMovie( movie01.swf, "mainMCholder");
mainMCholder.gotoAndPlay("lastframe");
I am loading a external swf into a MC "m_loader" but i want to go to a specific marker within the external .swf (Marker "m1q1"), i can load the .SWF fine but how do i go to specific place currently using the following AS.
Just finally making the transition from AS2 to AS3.All i need to do at this point is make two buttons which will control the movie to goto next frame and previous frame. I have gotten how to make the buttons go to a specified frame number and also a button to go to a specified external url but no success in making a simple next/previous pair of buttons.
i created a two layer in time line in one layer there is a movieclip called mc1. In the same layer in 15th frame i have another movie clip mc2. 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
at 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...
I have a scene where my movieclip loops between frame 1 and 2.In frame 3 there is a gotoAndPlay (1);.Is there a code that I can put in frame 1 where it tells to jump to frame 4 every 7:th second?
I have been using powerpoint all long for my presentations, but I'd like to move on with Flash. My question is therefore as follows: How do I use the arrow keys to go to the next frame and optionally, the left key to go to the previous frame?
Using CS5 and Code Snippets, how do I tell the Timeline that when it gets to a specific frame to go to another one? I want it to go back and play the first frame to create a looping effect.
I've got 3 buttons on a background and would like each to perform this:Rolllover=goto another frame to see graphic and stopRollout= go back to frame 1 and stopClick=goto URL
I'm making a game in which you have to pick up a key first with your character and then go to the door. When you hit the door, you should go to the next frame. Without the key, you can't pass the door. You should pick up the key with hitTestObject and go to the next frame with hitTestObject too.Here is my code:
So I have a custom flv player addapted from lee brimelows video basic tutesI want it to goto and stop on frame 2 in the main timeline when the flv has completed.Not got it cracked, so here is my code so far and the fla is attached.[code]
does anybody know the script for when i want a movieclip to goto and play a Random frame(not like: anyframe beetween 1 and 8, I mean: goto any of these Frames; 1, 4, 6, 9 ect...)
I've got a movie clip on the stage with lots of frames in the movie clip. When I click a button (also on the main stage) with the instance name 'next_btn', I want it to randomise the movie clip to a random frame. This is ActionScript 2.0 by the way! the project is due in a couple of days.
I want to some how be able to play through time line after a button is clicked and then goto a specific location. Though this location does not stay the same each time.I'm creating a gallery which will have 3 sections and want thumbnails to fade in, then when you click another sections they (play) a fadeout and then goto a specified location (after a button click).If the purpose is not clear, comment and I will try and clarify.
click on button1 in a Flash movie A to open a new web page (gallery.html) and for the new page (with flash movie "gallery.swf") to gotoAndStop on a certain frame.
So, when Flash movie A, has 3 buttons. I can get the gallery.swf to stop on a certain frame depending on which button was pressed in Flash movieA.
I was thinking it would have to do with adding variables... but, wasn't sure how to get the two movies to talk to eachother, when they are in different pages.
I have a button on the main stage, and a movieclip "qccontent". When the user presses the button, I am trying to check if the MC is on a specific frame label. The MC starts on a stopped frame labeled "closed". Right now, each time the button is pressed, it currently goes and plays the label "closemenohit". It is not reading the first part. Am I doing something wrong?
I have a php file that has three variables that are passed to a flash file. I know the variables are going through, as I can display them via input text elements.
one of the variables is called percent I want a movie clip called 'thermo' to go to the frame number that the variable 'percent' has stored. For whatever reason, this is not working
_root loadVariables("scripts/membership_drive.php", ""); _root.thermo code on frame #1 stop(); gotoAndStop(_root.percent);
Like maybe the script does not see the variable percent as a number?
and when i click another button to go frame 1 from the same page at 10,, placed beside the loading external swf ,, it goes,, but the loaded external swf file is not going ,, or the external file not cleaning,, not removing. here is the CS3 flash sources,, and outputs [URL]
I'm trying to advance to the next frame after 3 seconds on my timeline using actionscript 3. Is there a way to do this? I have 1 image per frame on my timeline.
I have invisible buttons on a movie clip that is loading swfs onto a parent movie clip. I hope I am current in the terminology. Are a parent and root the same? Is saying root absolute and parent relative? I'm digressing. So, this this._parent.gotoAndPlay("contact form"); is going to the keyframe named "contact form" and it will stop there. What I want to happen, is, I want the other invisible button named aboutmeMC2 to go back to the keyframe named "skip" so my contact form will no longer show up and it will load the external swf.
I have Movie that has a preloader on the 1st Frame and then on the 2nd Frame a swf is loaded using this script.[code]This loads my test_1.swf into the test_1 mc inside the cc mc.This all works fine.... However what I want to know is how to only gotoAndPlay ("3") after the test_1.swf has been fully loaded?The idea I'm working with is that... an initial swf (simply an image with a preloader - test_1) would load into the background when the swf is started and then a menu would appear in frame 3 that would allow the user to replace the background swf with button clicks..... But at the moment the menu on frame 3 is loading before the background swf is loaded.
I have a small flv embedded in the timeline of my movie clip (instance name = bg)
now what I want to happen is when I hit my button (instance name = b1)I want the bg movie clip to goto and play the from the next frame on the timeline.[code]...
I created a website with 4 movie clips; home (at Frame 10), (gallery at Frame 20), about (at Frame 30), contact (at Frame 40). I have a short opening and closing animation that I want to play when you click between the movie clips.
I can easily put the opening animation in a frame before each movie clip, but I'm having trouble with the closing animation. I guess I can create 3 separate closing movies on each movie clip but that is tedious. Is there a code that will allow a closing animation to play then direct you to the movie clip that you chose? -no matter which movie you are on and clicing to.
I'm guessing this is some kind of function that will be attached to my 4 button instances.Currently I have simple gotoAndPlay code to control the navigation, like this code to go from home to the gallery at Frame20:
ActionScript Code: stop(); butn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler); function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(20); }
