Im trying to make a cursor display when rolling over a movieclip only between a specific range of frames. with this code the cursor shows up in the range of frames but doesnt follow the mouse, and the mouse pointe ris visible
Code:
thisFrame = _root._currentframe;
if (thisFrame > 50) {
if (thisFrame < 90) {
[Code].....
My goal is to simply have the cursor swap to be a hand (pointer) when I roll over a MovieClip. Obviously I could use SimpleButton, but the situation is that I have some enemies that are obviously MovieClips, and when I select an ability to use I want the mouse to show as a pointer when I roll over them.
I assumed this would work:
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.beginFill(0);
mc.graphics.drawRect(0,0,50,50);
[Code].....
There are workarounds such as adding a button into the enemy MovieClip and then removing it. Just seems there's an inbuilt way I'm missing.
I want to use this on multiple frames however, when I do so I get errors.
The text frame is named --> theText
1 stop();
2 var str:String = "Sample text!";
3
4 var sInt = setInterval(writeIt,20);
[Code]....
How can use this function on other frames? Also I have considered that it might be some kind class I need to import, I don't know, I am still new AS and I and more familiar with AS2.
I want to play a movieclip between some specific frames. For example, if the user puts the cursor over a button, it will play from frame 1 and stop at frame 27, when the user roll the cursor out of the button, it will play from frame 28 to 45.
I've tried something like this but of course it didn't work...
gotoAndPlay(1 -27);
I'm trying to make a game of sorts. I have a button that you need to click that is in the center of the screen. Upon clicking it, it goes to the next scene.What I need here is for the mouse cursor to start in the upper right-hand corner of the stage of the second scene whenever said button is clicked. Not just a movieclip of a cursor, but the actual mouse itself, since it needs to be able to click a button on the other side.Below I've included an example of what needs to be done (not my actual game, but it shows the problem that I'm having. IT IS AN MX2004 FLA FILE.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to do this: When I roll over a button, an image appears. I have three buttons and 1 image per button that corresponds with it. When I roll out, the image disappears. I have most of it figured out, but the part that gets me is how to make each button correspond to one image. Right now when I roll over all three buttons, it only shows the image the first button should.
View 2 Repliesbasically on the stage I have my Menu movieclip which is linked to an actionscript class called Menu. Within this I have another movieclip, not linked to actionscript, just a plain old movieclip.
This movie in question is a dialog box, and contains an animation for it popping up, and then going away again. I'm trying to put actions on specific frames to make it stop when it reaches the middle of the animation, then when "ok" is pressed the animation will resume and it disappears again. However the actions on the frames don't seem to be getting executed. I tried putting "this.stop();" on the middle frame, and have since put "trace("hello?");" on all kinds of frames but it doesnt seem that the actionscript is getting called at all.
This is something for work so I don't really want to start sending the .fla file around, but instead is there anything I should know about things which could cause the frame actions to not be executed?
I'm trying to get a range of frames to play and am failing. Here's the latest code I'm trying. I'm sure this is a common issue, but haven't found code that's simple to understand.
Here's what I'm currently using. It starts playing the movie from the frame I want, but plays it to the end.
if (GameCurrentNum > t) {
this.GameCurrent.movingCurrent.titles.gotoAndPlay( 769 - (GameCurrentNum * 12));
this.GameCurrent.movingCurrent.titles2.gotoAndPlay (769 - (GameCurrentNum * 12));
if (this.GamePast.movingPast.titles.currentFrame == ((t * 12) + 1001 + 11)) {

I have an object which I want to rotate between -45 and 45 degrees, but I want that to be based on the mouse position. If the mouse position is at zero, I want the object to be at -45 degrees. If the mouse position is at the stageWidth, I want the object to be at 45 degrees. How would I accomplish this?
View 1 RepliesI am overlaying two textinput components and a UILoader component on top of a flash video. The three components retrieve data from the weather.com XML service and display current conditions for a city. As the video plays, the camera pans to another geographical location. Thus, I need to have the three components be visible only during certain frames. To this end, I've created the following if statement:
if(this.currentFrame>25&&this.currentFrame<150){
txtlowtemp.visible=true
txthitemp.visible=true
uicondicon.visible=true;
}
However, when I play the SWF the visibility of these components do not change.

View 3 RepliesIm working on a flash website that has an opening page animation that ends at frame 70. From frame 70-1000 I have a slideshow. How can I make the opening animation play once, then play the slideshow, and loop the slideshow only (from frames 70-1000?) I dont want the entire timeline to loop just the few frames that I choose. Is there some actionscript for that? Im using Flash CS3.

View 2 RepliesI have a 'plus' and 'minus' button that rotates a dial (.hand). The code below belongs to the minus button.
I trace the position and I want the dial to not go past a position of 40, how can I set this up? The dial can still move in the positive direction, however.
Also, when the dial reaches a certain positive position, I want the entire movie to jump to another frame, (to an area with a different dial), and the dial reset itself to its origianl (symbol) position.
on (press) {
_root.hand._rotation -= 5 * direction;
trace(_root.hand._rotation);
}

View 0 RepliesIs it possible with the Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 to only allow a specific IP range to the archived video stored on the server. However allow the live feed full access to the server, so basically in the end have the archived video locked down to a specific allowed IP range and the live feed available to the public? What would the Interactive server have as far as advantages to the Flash Media Streaming Server in this regards?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make it so that and object rotates to the mouse, but only within a specific range. In the class file for Object1, I want it to be able to rotate a maximum of 45 degrees in either direction from the rotation of Object2. So far this is all I could come up with:
[Code]....
The possible rotations of Object2 are 0, 45, 90, 135, 180, -135, -90, and -45. The code seems to work fine if the rotations are between -90 and 90 (the right half), but because the left half goes from -179 to 180 to 179, it obviously fails. How would I accomplish the effect I want?

What I am trying to do is get a button to make a movieclip go to a specific frame. I have a movieclip that plays a set of frames up to the 100th frame, and then I tell it to go back to and play frame 1 again. However, at about 105, I have another set of frames that I want to play at the push of a button. How would I go about doing this?

View 1 Repliesthink.. in as2, i just want to make a movieclip change colors over a period of say 30 frames when i release a button.. is there a simple way to script this?
View 5 RepliesI've created a movieclip that is supposed to begin the movie with a rotation (it's a globe) and at a specific frame it should beginning to fade out. I've inserted the folowing code to the rotation and for this action it is working perfectly
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
i = getProperty(this,_rotation);
setProperty(this,_rotation,i + 0.5);
}
But, when I try to insert any other line for the _alpha, a sintaxe error occurs and the rotation doesnt works.
Is there any possibility to make a movieclip visible for a specific time (e.g. 5sec.)? I want to make "srch275" show for 5 seconds and then make it disapear.
sruch_btn.onRelease = function () {if (cosearchbx.text == "APPLE"){srch275._visible = true;}
Is it possible to make a custom cursor with restraints (meaning you only see the cursor when you put your mouse in a certain spot, by defining both the max and min of the x & y), that is placed inside a movie clip; then make the movie clip move on the stage when you click certain buttons.

I have a movie clip on the main timeline. This movieclip has buttons that I want to play different frames in scene 1.
At the moment, this is the code I'm using in scene 1.

I'm getting the error below but have no idea what I should be doing.

What I want to do is have one movieclip that has many frames and turn that into a button and then make different instances of the button and have those instances display a certain frame of the underlying movieclip.
