I'm trying to get my movie clip to ease into position with the below AS and then delete the actions, but it's not working. What am I doing wrong?
[Code]...
I have an MC that contains a menu. Within the menu MC I have a little arrow movie clip that I would like to ease to the mouse position when clicked. I have this code on the little arrow, copied from many easing tutorials:
[Code]....
Also, I want the arrow MC to start at a particular place. But when I put _y = 30 (for example, which is where I would want it to start from) it is still at 0,0 - even when I change _y to this._y. What the heck?
If you have a movie clip and assign to it via the onClipEvent (Load) OR simply the movieclip.onLoad a whole bunch of data (properties of that movieclip):
When you duplicate that movieclip, does it duplicate all the actionscript contained within? I'm thinking it does, but I am wondering if someone can confirm... and explain.
I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

In my project are pages of text with each word having a button that when pressed will display a movieclip presentation about that word (its pronounciation and spelling etc..). In the project I am working on now I have over 450 unique presentations of words to deal with. I don't want to have all of these hundreds of movie clips on the stage and tell them one at a time to stop and rewind and then have one play each time a word button is pressed. That seems to be very inefficient to me.
add movieclips to the stage using addChild(movieclipname) and remove them using removeChild(movieclipname) but there is a problem. I have hundreds of unique movieclips and I don't want to have to manage hundreds of variables containing the indivudual movieclip instancess. It is a real pain having to figure out what instance is still on the stage before i delete it.In Adobe Director all I have to do is this:
I have a menu bar that has 2 Drop down menus. Each drop down is a separate movie clip, with 3 buttons inside that are separate movie clips. I have a class set to the buttons that are movie clips for a roll over effect. But when I mouse over it does not work. Also on the main time line I tried to add a like to a web page but it did not work. But I only have this problem with the movie clips that are inside the drop down movie clips.
Why is this? How do I add roll over actions and external links to movie clips that are inside of another movie clip? I really need some help this is a problem I have been having for about a month or more. I am still a AS3 newb and this is my first time using classes. The other classes I have work with everything else, Im just having trouble with the movie clips that are inside movie clips.
I want a movie clip to delete a movie clip when one rollsover the other.
View 16 RepliesI have several movie clips on the stage. They are draggable. I want to be able to drag the movie clip, then when it is dropped, a copy of that movie clip will appear where the first one had been, and the first one will just stay where it is on the screen.
However, I'm running into problems with the syntax.
Here is my current code:

View 6 Replies what bugs me that in EVERY tutorial on creating lets say, a menu they teach you how to animate things and everything but theres never an explanation on how to actually connect buttons or movie clips with a certain action.
I want to do the most basic thing.. to make a certain animation/movie clip appear in the document after a certain button is pressed.
I want to press any keyboard key to delete movie clip - how do I go about it? This is what I have for mouse click
bubble_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,rotateBall);
trace("ball working");
function rotateBall(e:MouseEvent):void { ball_mc.rotation+=5;}
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, ballMove);
I need to know how to the lead a empty movieclip that i made with ASi already tried deletemovieclip is there any other way
View 6 RepliesI am making an interactive map of the US.When you hover over a state it zooms in and cities pop up.When you click the city it should a page, for now just google.I have the basics for the first state, California.The zoom works and the cities pop_up.However, when you click the city the link doesn't work. The cities are instances of a movie clip, city.I placed them inside the CA movie clip in their approx locations and named them SF_mc, LA_mc, SD_mc respectively.Here is the code.i added some comments.the FLA is attached in zip as well.It is CS5 file but I'm more familar with AS2 so yea.This is the first frame of the CA movie clip, actions layer
Code:
stop();
/this is all zoom stuff
this.onEnterFrame = function(){[code].......
In the first frame the cities are not on the stage yet. They are add later when the state is zoomed. SO i thought maybe that is why it not working so i tried duplicating the code on the frame after the zoom where i add the cities and it is still not working...
I am making an image gallery and have so far got buttons that display a group of movie clips inside another movie clip. onclick { _root.attachMovie ("group","group",1) } or something, from the top of my head.

I have a movie clip button which I have created to provide me with colour tween. An "up" label for the upstate, "over" for the over state (colour tween) and then an "out" label where I have the colour tween back to normal. This all works fine except if i place an action on that button in the timeline, e.g.-
myBtn_mc.onRelease = function(){loadMovieNum("swf/movie.swf", 99);}
explain why this behaviour on my movie clip button won't work if an action such as this is placed on it ? (no tween just the up state colour)
I'm trying to make a program for an e-commerce project I'm involved in that will allow our users to listen to sample clips from a given CD. I've listed all the tracks in an array called trackList. Here's the code to play a given track from that array:
function playTrack(event:MouseEvent):void{
switch(event.currentTarget.name){
case "track01":[code]....
The event target that I've bolded is the given movie clip button that the user has clicked; at frame two, the button turns yellow. When the clip is finished, the button should return to frame 1, but I can't get that to happen.
I suspect I need to put the event listener to make the button's color change back on the sound channel (sndChan), but I don't know how I could write that function so that it will apply to which ever button happens to be active.

apply actions to an attached/created movie clip at runtime? I.E. You use attachMovieClip to attach a clip, and then you add a startDrag/stopDrag system to it dynamically.

View 16 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do - remove/delete a movie-clip once a button has been pressed (Selling a tower)My problem - Is that from my limited knowledge none of the following work.
removeChild(myTower);
Turret.removeChild(myTower); - (trying to reference the class of the turret so that it can access the movieclip)
Turret.parent.removeChild(Turret)
Turret(root).removeChild(Turret)
This function is placed in the first frame of the source.fla where all main functions are.The turret has its own class defining its properties and such.Basically what i want to happen is when the button function is activated to remove the movieclip Turret and the class from running.
I've got a basic little slide show player which is timeline-based, rolling through 5 images with alpha transitions, and on the topmost layer, I have 5 invisible movie clips which have actions applied to them as follows:
on (press) { gotoAndPlay(21);}
This action should allow for the on click button to navigate to that specific frame, or image, but for some reason it is not working.
