ActionScript 2.0 :: Setup A Click And Drag To Control A Movie Symbol?
Jul 21, 2011Basically what I have is a 31 frame, frame-by-frame animation that plays(no stop() command at all currently) in a continuous loop on one "page" of a flash presentation. What I need to be able to do is set it up in actionscript 2.0 so that when a viewer has his mouse over the movie symbol and then clicks and drags to the right, the movie plays forward, click and drag to the left and it plays in reverse, and on release stops on the frame it is currently on.
I need it set up so that if someone is dragging it to the right and reverses direction, the frames are played in reverse from that point (frame) and vice versa and releasing the mouse button stops the movie on that frame: e.g. if the viewer is dragging right up to frame 20 then starts dragging to the left the animation will play backwards from frame 20 to frame 1 so long as the mouse button is held down) I can't use playback buttons, I have to set this up this way for a specific reason for a work project. I'm not even sure if I explained it correctly If I can set this up on the frame the symbol is nested in, fine. If it has to be done within the symbols' animation, fine. Doesn't matter really, the end result is what counts.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Getting A MovieClip Symbol To Remove Itself?
Feb 23, 2011I am currently working on a project where I create explosions on the screen by adding the movieclip symbol explosion to the main timeline via:
addChild(explosion);
I am trying to figure out how to dynamically remove the explosion (make it eligible for garbage collection) when it is done playing the animation of the explosion.
I have tried parent.removeChild(this) within the symbol itself and that throws an error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Is there any way to have a movieclip remove itself? If not is there a way to call a function in the actionscript code explosion exports to? Or maybe there is a way to call a function in the main timeline?
ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Put Button Symbol Into MovieClip
Nov 18, 2003If you put a button symbol into a movie clip. Then, place the movie clip onto the main time line. Add multiple scenes to the movie and multiple frames on the pain timeline. Go back to the button within the movie clip and program it
on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndStop(25);
}
This sends the main timeline to that frame. But, uou can't do this
on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndStop("Scene 2", 25);
}
You can't make the parent change to another scene in this fashion. How come?
Flash :: Override A Method For A MovieClip Symbol In CS3
Mar 24, 2010I'm using flash to draw objects, then I export them and use them from flex, and I'm a beginner in flash.
I'm trying to do the override a method from the MovieClip I created. The method I'm trying to override is stop() method.

Flash :: Reference A MovieClip Symbol Later On In The Timeline
Jul 22, 2011I've been trying to reference a Library symbol that is introduced in Frame 2 by using it's instance name, using timeline scripting only. I am trying to make a colour picker MC symbol for multiple re-use. Firstly I drew a small button on the stage and converted to MC, called textColourPicker of type CPicker (the class used to represent this MC in the Library). Inside this MC I have a button symbol called pickerButton

ActionScript 3.0 :: ADDED_TO_STAGE On Frame 1 Of MovieClip Symbol?
Jun 8, 2011I made the following discovery while attempting to use the ADDED_TO_STAGE event with timeline code. I don't know whether to say it's a real problem, or maybe it's just an observation, but it's very simple to demonstrate. Just make a MovieClip symbol in the library, and set it for export. On frame 1 of this MovieClip symbol, enter this code:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.Event;
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, added);[code]....
(Note: I called my MovieClip symbol Screen1, and gave it a class name of Screen1 when I set it for export. But I am letting Flash create the class for me, there is no same-named class in the classpath)Next, put this code on frame 1 of the main timeline:
ActionScript Code:
var screen1:Screen1 = new Screen1();
addChild(screen1);
Looking at that latter code, apparently when the screen1 instance is created in line 1, the object hasn't fully finished instantiating before line 2 is executed,because the trace message never happens.Prior to this, I had assumed that code on frame 1 of a MovieClip, if it were "base level" and not inside any functions, was roughly equivalent to the constructor of a class. Apparently that isn't so, because whenever I add an event listener for ADDED_TO_STAGE in the constructor of a class, it always works, even if the object is immediately added to the display list, exactly as above.
In some of my other testing, if the movie clip instance is later removed from the stage and added again, the added and removed handlers fire just fine. It's only this initial time that it gets skipped. Also, if you add an event listener for ADDED_TO_STAGE from the main timeline instead, like this:
ActionScript Code:
screen1.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, added);
It works just fine.The conclusion I draw from all this is that there is no way to use the ADDED_TO_STAGE handler inside a MovieClip's frame code and have it fire the first time. Also that there may be no real equivalent to a constructor when you let Flash create the class for you. Thoughts, anyone? I am attaching a FLA file (CS4 format) in case anyone might want to examine this without putting a file together yourself. Don't expect anything at all fancy, though, it's nothing more than what I described above, and I fully expect you'll want to delete it later.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Movieclip Rollover Hand Symbol?
Jun 1, 2009Is it possible to have the cursor change to a hand sybol when the user rolls over a certain movieclip without changing the movieclip to a button or using the following code?
play_select_mc.buttonMode = true;
The reason that I cant use these two methods is because I'm using the 'button' to allow the user to click on the swf in their browser to activate keyboard functions. Turning my mc into a button or using the above code does not activate these functions, the user still has to click on the swf. Clicking in an mc works fine, I just want the hand symbol.

Mar 10, 2011I have been working on code updation project wherein initially we had an image and text as movieclips in fla library. The image and the text are read by the actionscript program which then creates an animation.[code]...
I want to ease the updation process by giving the url of the image in an XML file. Read the image url from the xml and load this image in the library of the fla as movieclip. This, i think, will result in less code change and improve the updation of the final animation image.
The problem i am facing is not been able to figure out how can i change the image (after fetching its URL) to a movieclip and then load it in the library?

Oct 29, 2009I've reviewed all the documentation and Google results surrounding this and I think I have everything setup correctly. My problem is that the symbol is not appearing in my app. I have a MovieClip symbol that I've embedded to my Flex Component. I need to create a new Image control for each item from my dataProvider and assign this embedded symbol as the Image's source. I thought it was simple but apparently not.
Here's a stub of the code:
[Embed(source="../assets/assetLib.swf", symbol="StarMC")]
private var StarClass:Class;
protected function rebuildChildren():void {
iterator.seek( CursorBookmark.FIRST );
while ( !iterator.afterLast ) {
child = new Image();
var asset:MovieClipAsset = new StarClass() as MovieClipAsset;
(child as Image).source = asset;
}}
I know the child is being created because I can draw a shape and and that appears.
