ActionScript 2.0 :: OnMouseMove Breaks When Loaded Into Master Movie
Mar 25, 2008
I (like many othes probably) am using a master flash movie (AS2) with a menu that loads external swf files into a container. It is working pretty well, but I'm running into a pretty nasty problem.
This particular external swf that I am loading has a menu made of images that scroll depending on the mouseposition. It is very similar to this: [URL]
Now, when running the swf on its own (not inside the master movie) it works 100%. BUT... seeing as I am going to load this into a master movie that is bigger (about 300px of menus to the left) I get problems with the positioning. I don't really know what the cause is but the imagemenu seems to think it has a bigger stage now and the images seem to fall behind my master-menu.
I have to find a way to restrict either the positioning of the images, or the mousemovement.
I tried fixing this by adding a square, the exact size of the external swf's dimensions. hit_mc
Code:
hit_mc.onMouseMove = function() {
if (!hit_mc.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true) || w<=hit_mc._width) {
return;
[Code]....

I'm new to action script and was wondering how to change the alpha of a movieclip from 0 to 100% gradually or instantly when the mouse is moved ( like the navigation bar on a media player) when the mouse is still i want the alpha to be at 0, i am totally new to actionscript but am familiar with code syntax.

I was thinking that it will be an easy task but something is not right. Here is what I am trying to do. I want to be able to run a function if the mouse is moved over certain areas of the movie clip on stage. Based on which area of the movie clip the mouse is moved I'd like to be able to trigger different behaviour. Below is the code which I was thinking shoud do it:
Code:
var posY:Number;
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() {
[Code].....
For some reason, the trace statement is ran always when the mouse moves regardless if it is over the movie clip or not. It also only shows the first trace statement. It is never chaged even if the mouse is in the different areas of the movie clip.

We are migrating to AS3 at my job and I have run across a weird bug (???). I use the same basic class structure for most of my projects:Main.as - document class. handles preloader and sometimes XML loading, etc.Navigation.as - the class that handles all menu buttons, etc.Content.as - handles all the pages, game content, whatever.I created a game with this basic structure and published the SWF. Everything works great.Now, I built a website with this same basic structure and when I try to load the game SWF, it throws a bunch of runtime errors - it seems to be confused by the fact that the class names are the same.Each SWF works fine by itself. It only crashes when I try to load one into the other.
I should mention that both the game and website have identical package structure (because they are for the same client, duh!).Is this a flash player bug or am I doing something wrong? I went through the website and renamed all of the classes and it fixed the problem, but my concern is that we may have to load SWFs in the future that we didn't create. What if they have a similar issue? Unlikely, but possible.

I've got a little script that scales a video to the stage. The scaleing function has a switch statement to indicate what kind of scaling to apply.If I declare the case value of the switch statement internally all is fine. However if I load this value from an XML doc, even though the trace indicated the value has loaded, the switch never fires.
Code:
/stage variables
var sH:Number;
var sW:Number;
var _contentHolder = new Sprite();

I am using Flash C4 and using ActionScript 2.0. I have a movie, but when I publish it out with at the default image quality setting on 80% it doesn't look crisp. When I publish the movie out with the jpeg quality at 100% it totally breaks my entire movie. Any animations flicker and anything that has actions on it does not work and my mouse flickers back between the pointer and the hand uncontrollably.
I changed the Hardware Acceleration to level 2 GPU and my animations no longer flicker, but my actions still do not work properly.

Ok, the code below does get called when the mouse moves, but its like it doesnt re-run the tween until the the mouse stops moving. how to fix it? click on portfolio and select web or interactive from the drop down and you will see what I mean.
PHP Code:
mouseListener = new Object();mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() (mc_mask.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false)) mousePosX = (_root._
xmouse-mc_mask._x); mousePosY = (_root._ymouse-

I have an animation that follows my mouse movement (onMouseMove) on the stage. Currently its loaded higher than the rest of my movieclips and I would like to move it below the others if possible.
[Code]...
I have tried a TON of variations, different levels, etc... BUT all of them end up breaking the whole animation to where it doesn't work. Is there anyway to position it at a lower depth and still maintain its funtionality?

I am attempting to have the main timeline move from a stopped position over a movie clip to frame 1, where my start menu is.The code I'm using does move the timeline but in doing so it somehow breaks the 4 buttons I have in frame 1.
My code in the movie clip:
stop()
function replayMovie(event:MouseEvent):void

I am using this code to slide through frames in my swf by waving my mouse back and forth:
_root.onMouseMove = function() {
moveForward.gotoAndStop(Math.ceil(_xmouse/10)); }
I would like it though to start from east to west insted of the other way around so when i move to the east my frames go forward. i cant figure it out at the moment.

i was in the very initial stage of my code but now i have completed my file and need some help fixing a bug in the file.The basic idea is to arrange the cards in order user seem fit but the problem i am facing is that when i swap cards on mousemove a particular card doesn't have its properties updated it shows xpos ypos and its col and row id as undefined until i click on it and then only the card takes its properties I know i am not setting something properly some where but am kind of totally clueless about it.I am attaching the fla and xml here . the xml is only for the increasing or decreasing the length of the columns and rows.

I would like to make a portion of a site that is stimulated from the mouse being moved. So, as the user moves their mouse I want the timeline to change (for an image will load on each new timeline). So, it will be kind of like a flip book that is activated by the mouse moving. Hopefully that makes sense. Each scene a person will be moving (new picture in a new frame) as the mouse moves up or down.

I'm currently developing a series of education video games that work much like the game Myst. The students can walk around in virtual environments that have been modeled in 3d and are displayed as static panoramas. Each panorama has areas that allows them to interact with different tools and instructional interfaces. Currently each node is loaded either as it is needed, or right before it is needed to prevent loading times but the overall file size of the games(5 games total each with 20-30 nodes and 8-14 interfaces) is starting to get a bit too much.
Also in the current game we're using papervision3d to have fish that swim and are caught and put into holding tanks in an underwater bathysphere.
The current game is divided into rooms, and each room has several nodes. Every single node is a seperate folder that contains a spherical panoramic png file, a swf file that loads the panorama and an xml file that determines if the node links to any neighbors and whether or not there are any active interfaces that should be loaded into the panorama.
Each interface contains libraries that are being embedded into each interface and panorama. For example we use the greensock tweenmax, and TimelineLite in the majority of our nodes. This is a small 6-13kb that is loaded into each of the 20+ nodes. Other libraries such as the papervision or component libraries for forms/checkboxes can start to reach substantial sizes. Also many images are duplicated in each node.

I am playing with a page viewer which imports SWFs for pages from an XML file.If i make a button on one of these pages, can i get it to call the parent master SWF functions?I have tried this...
code:
nextBtn.onRelease = function() {
var nextPage = _root.offsetPages(_root.page+2,_root.removedPages) ;
if(nextPage<=_root.offsetPages(_root.maxpage,_root .removedPages)) _root.gotoPage(nextPage);
}
but while it hovvers like a btn the functions still not calling.

I have the Adobe CS4 Master Collection and I'm interested in purchasing Flash CS5 by itself, rather than the entire Master Collection. I want to get the upgrade discount, but I was wondering if I can only upgrade from the version I have. (e.g. Master CS4 --> Master CS5 ; Design Premium CS4 --> Design Premium CS5)So, if I buy the upgrade version of Flash CS5, will I be able to install it?

opening included templates in Flash CS5 and then telling the program to test the movie within the environment shows Flash trying to export an SWF file and then crashes. the program will alllow the movie to be played inside the environment, however.
debugging yields the same crash:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: Flash.exe
Application Version: 11.0.0.485
Application Timestamp: 4badda9d
[code]....
DW opens and using one of its templates, no problems so far.Read about <supposedly> certain .Wacom tablet drivers and flash...don't have any such device installed, but stopped the generic windows tablet service....no change in the problem.

I am using the MovieClipLoader object to load a swf into a master swf. I am the using a series of buttons to load various swfs into the master.swf - i.e.; navigation. Her is the code that I am using for the movie clip buttons go to frame 2 of the external swf MM_work is the movie clip that acts as a button. The first three lines of the function give the button its various states and interactivity the final line in the function is telling the movement.swf to load into the master.swf (or level 0) thus booting out the previous movie clip.What I want to be able to do is to fade out the current movie clip loaded into the master.swf (level 0) and once that has been completed to then load in movement.swf. Basically fading out the existing movie clip before loading the next one.

I've used the stop(); function on my actions frame, top layer, on all of my frames. I've tried using it on keyframes for all of the frames, and on one "master" actionscript frame (spans the movie).
stop(); won't stop my master timeline. I've traced it, and it isn't being activated--so that tells me that for some reason, the actions on the frames (not in the document class file) aren't being triggered.
Is it related to the fact that I have a custom document class? I can't think of anything in there that would cause this to happen, and I even put a stop(); in the beginning of the constructor function. (Didn't work so I took it out.)
This isn't a looping movie clip inside of my timeline, it is the master timeline itself.

I can't figure out how to load external swf files(9) into my master.swf file one after the other. This is the Actionscript i have written so far.....(AS2)
var myItems:Array = new Array("swf01.swf", "swf02.swf", "swf03.swf", "swf04.swf", "swf05.swf", "swf06.swf", "swf07.swf", "swf08.swf", "swf09.swf");
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
myMCL.loadClip("myItems[0]", this.getNextHighestDepth());
The first swf loads alright into my master swf but i can't for the life of me work out how to load the rest after each one has finished loading. Don't know if i need a for loop or what?

Anyone know if it is possible to keep a MASTER crossdomain policy file in a subdirectory of the domain?url...I know you can do it with a meta policy file, but I want to do it with the MASTER because without a master the meta's are ignored.I've googled this for hours and read through the official spec several times and come up with nothing. With the server I want to do this on its possible to deploy in any subdirectory except the domain root - thats just the constraints I'm under.
