ActionScript 2.0 :: Making Drawn Curves Invisible?
Jun 27, 2006
I've made a drawn menu with curves in my root. This menu loads dynamically swf into an empty container mc. Within some of these swfs, there are full page image galleries. However, the drawn curves seem to stick on top of these swf: I can still see them although the rest of the content is invisible. Now I want to make those curves also invisible...
Code:
//API AND LINES//
box2.lineStyle (1, 0xff00ff,0);
box2.beginFill(0xCCCCCC,0);
box2.moveTo(0,0);
[code]....
Now I want to realise a function in an externally loaded swf that makes these lines/curves invisible. i was thinking myself of something like
Code:
btImages.onPress = function (){
_root.line.lineStyle(0.5,0xCCCCCC,0);
gotoAndStop (3);
}
But unfortunately thsi doesnt work.

I have one button instance that stretches across many frames, and I would like to make it invisible in some of the frames and visible in others. How do I do this with ActionScript 3?

Im a bit a of a noob when it comes to AS. I have a problem that I think should be very easy to solve.
I have a shape that I turned into a button and gave it an instance name of "CA" I also have an array that has a string item called "CA"
I want to be able to make the button invisible by using the array instead of just writing the instance name. I have the following code but it just doesnt work.

I've built an image scroller but I'd like to make the 'next' and 'previous' buttons invisible at the first and last frames frames respectively. The code I'm using for the scroll is below. I think the code I'm after should be something like this:
HTML Code:
if (targetX<720) {
btn_Previous.visible = false;
}
But I can't work out where I should put it (or even if it's correct) within the scroller code.

I have a button inside a movie clip that when pressed it launches another movie clip. That part works great. The problem I'm having now is either removing the original movie clip or at the very least making it invisible when the next movie launches. So far for my button script this is what I have:
onRollOver=function(){
this.gotoAndPlay("_over");
};
onRollOut=function(){

I have a movieClip called "button" within another movieClip called "movie1_mc" I want the "button" movieclip, which also loads XML on frame 12 of "movie1_mc to vanish on or after frame 13
This is the code I have in place but, "button" movieClip isn't disappearing. This is my first time using XML and Flash
//Code to "button movieClip disappear//
if (_root._currentframe == 13) {var linkname:Array = [_visible=false];}

I'm having trouble targeting elements of an array using AS3. I have five buttons in an array named botons.
var botons:Array = [boton_1, boton_2, boton_3, boton_4, boton_5];
Each button goes to a different page, but they all are on the same layer like navigation bar. When page 1 is visited button 1 should be invisible and the others visible. When on page 2, button 2 should be invisible but all others visible.
I used the following to make the entire array invisible and it works.
for(var i:int; i<clips.length;i++){botons[i].visible=false;}
How can I make each button invisible when visiting its page, but make the rest visible?

g1

How can I make invisible with a for loop, like
for (i = 1; i < 20; i++) {
g+i.visible=false;
}
This that not work.

I'm having trouble working with buttons in an array. I would like to target specific button and make it invisible while the others remain visible. Each buttons goes to a page (first, second, third, etc.). There are five buttons named button1... button5. I'm using AS3 in timeline.
Problem: when I click a button, it doesn't get invisible and I get this message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at subtraction_fla::MainTimeline/goPNext()
Here is my script:
stop();
var button= [button1, button2, button3, button4, button5];
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goPNext);

I have several movieclips placed on the timeline that I want to be invisible and not run until the user clicks a button. The movieclips are linked to a class I set up:
Code:
class Hidestop extends MovieClip {
function onLoad() {
[Code]....
The problem is that some, but not all, movieclips show briefly when they load before becoming invisible. I can get around this by starting each movieclip with a blank frame, but there must be a better way.

I have a movie clip which has a dynamic mask applied to it to provide a scroll effect.
The mask is generated with the 'create blank movieclip' method.
So the mask is a movie clip over a movie clip.
I hunted for invisible text last night and found this link [URL]
which implies it's to do with the mask being on a layer, but from what I can gather from reading the AS, it's not it's on a new blank movie clip.
Also many other links I found all imply it's an issue with dynamic text and the font needs to be embeded, but the underlying text is not dynamic, it's static normal text which has been used in a movieclip to create animated rollover/out effects.
So why is the text missing when the content is scrolled into view?
If you hover over where the text is supose to be, the animation plays and the text becomes visible?
Also the arrow graphic next to the text which forms part of the animation does display; it's just the text portion which is invisible?

I have a movie into which I am loading external swfs. this all works fine but some of the content is duplicated and where there is slimline text it shows that there are two layers. see the header on white here:
how can i set the alpha to 0 or remove the host movieclip, from the externally loaded swf. does that make sense? so once the external swf has loaded into the empty movieclip then the parent movie disappears.

I am just trying to make a button disappear using a variable set to it's instance name. When I say invisible I also mean deactivated. The code I've got is this..
Code:
[test]_visible = false;
but it doesn't work - any offers?

i have a few buttons that use loadmovienum to load a few clips into levels. The code on each button is something similar to:
on(release){ loadMovieNum("print_index.swf",1);printbutton._visible = false;webbutton._visible = false;illusbutton._visible = false;threedbutton._visible = false;retouchbutton._visible = false;}
But because the print_index movie slowly scrolls across the stage rather than immediately replace it, there is a moment where the button turns completely invisible after the click. Perhaps the bigger problem is that it doesnt make any of the accompanying buttons invisible like it is supposed to- only the one that is clicked.

Is it possible to create a invisible mc with in 2 other invisible mc's and if so would there be any complications. Im trying to do something similar and it gets to the second layer but then doesnt want to load the third inv-mc. Like loading an external swf to a container mc then in that same mc have another external load and then another.

I've been working on simple animation for a client, which you can see __here__.I have a few issues with performance. I have popped a fps counter at the top left and it seems to only run at around 30 fps on my laptop, I need it up to 60 though.
i was just wondering if anyone had any tips about getting the best performance from flash.I have used Shape instead of Sprite on the curves, which gave a slight improvement. Surprisingly I didnt notice any change in performance when I dont use the blur filter on the curves, which was odd to me.

Just installed Flash CS4 and the first thing i realized was:When I break apart text the curves straightens in some places.Is there a setting i need to set up for this not to happen?Didn't have any problems in CS3.

I have five dots(MovieClips) in my stage. I want to draw a curve which should touch all the five dots. The x position of dots are incremented by 50 px and y position is random.I can do this using lineTo. But it has not got any curve effect.
Here is the code using lineTo
Code:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("circle",1);
with (_root.circle) {
clear();
[code]...
I tried curveTo to achieve this. But it is not working.

What's the best way to draw cubic bezier curves programmatically in AS3? The Graphics class only seems to support quadratic curves. I want to be able to do something like:
var startPoint:Point = new Point(0, 0);
var endPoint:Point = new Point(5, 5);
var control1:Point = new Point(5, 0);
var control2:Point = new Point(0, 5);
var myBezier:Sprite = getBezier(startPoint, control1, control2, endPoint);
For a performance target, I'm planning on having ~50 of these on the stage at once.

Does anyone know of any code examples of drawing arcs as cubic bezier curves? (Yes cubic, not quadratic.) I have 2 end points, a center point, and a radius. I suppose I would also need to define a direction as well, since it could go around clockwise or counter-clockwise.
