i'm trying to make this little news section and for some reason the rollover and rollout works only on the last news itemClip to be attached. you can take a look at it HERE and see that the bottom one is the only one working.[code]
View 3 RepliesIf I roll over the button tweens from alpha 50 - alpha 100%.If I rollout it goes back to 50% via a tween.If I click and hold and or I click very fast and move the mouse away from the button the rollout fails.It keeps the picture at 100%.Is there a way to stop this from happening.Basically with the mouse button held down and moving the mouse off the button prevents the rollout from working properly.
View 3 RepliesI just have a simple button set up to move a BOX on rollOver using tweens and move it back into position onRollOut.
Problem: The onRollOut function doesn't work consistantly. It works ok most of the time, but if I move the mouse quickly (not like crazy quick), the BOX doesn't get back into place.
Is there a way to "secure" an onRollOut statement to make sure it works at all time? I try also adding onReleaseOutside, onDragOut... but that is not the problem.
As most of you don't know, I've been creating an rpg game. And, after several tries of art making, etc, I have finally moved back into coding the game. And now, I'm stuck on the equipment system idea. At first, I thought I would just place a bunch of goToAndStop's for each movie clip to go to a frame that has that certain armor piece. This was my first idea for an equipment system. However, after doing some research, and realizing how much lines of code could be saved, I started looking into simply adding and removing movie clips from the character as my new equipment system idea. Now.... on to the problem.
Basic want/ overall achievement wanted: Create an equipment system, which will basically attach movie clips (items) onto characters, which themselves will already be attached movie clips on the stage.
Problem: What is the exact code to do this? And Is there a better way to do this for an equipment system (a less laggy or more efficient way perhaps that I'm not seeing; Check the code below to get a better idea of what I'm talking about)?
Part of the code (or basic idea of code; see comments for extra details
code:
//Don't worry I have an OnEnterFrame function here;
//attachedObj= the character; figure= the MC name of the character;
attachedObj = attachMovie("figure", "figure"+1, 1);

I was making a small animation maybe for forums and stuff just wanted to see if i cud do it when i had some problems. What i want to happen (don't ask why) is to have these random movie clips from the library to come on stage from the far right side and to move over to the left and be deleted, but have the movie clips being moved, deleted, and loaded continuously. The problems i'm having are that i can't get the clips to be attached to the right side because the depth is all different. here's the code on the first frame. I will attach the .fla file too.
Code:
onEnterFrame = function() {
//random number generator
rand = Math.random()*20;

I am trying to move attached movie clips, but I've come across a problem. This is the code inside the movie clip that's attached:

I'm having trouble figuring out how to target a series of movie clips i'm attaching to my movie.I'm loading some xml for a slideshow and i'm generating a series of dots at the bottom of the screen to indicate how many steps are in the slideshow and the circle is meant to highlight your current position as you step through the presentation.the MC for the dots is two keyframes with a different color and a stop action on each frame.
Here's the rundown of the code:
1. There's nothing weird here, i'm just bringing the xml in [code]
2. Here is the loadXML function i reference in the xml.Data.onLoad above:[code]Okay so now i have some dots with the instance names, step0, step1 etc. right? And at the end of my loadXML function you see the firstImage(); function. This is where my problem is, how do i target the first (step0) instance? I have no problem when I write "step0.gotoAndStop(2);" but I need to figure out how to use a variable to keep moving it along when i make my next and last functions for the slideshow.
3. Here is the firstImage function:[code]how do i target the step the same way i target the image? do i have to go back and do something in the loadXML for loop?[code]
I have ablut 60 movie clips attached dynamically on the stage in flash each at various depths. I want to place some other movie clips in between the depths of those clips dynamically .. how would i go about that?
View 2 RepliesI want to target ALL the 20 clips attached as below, at the same time, when I press the button "blue". However, my code can target only ONE of the clips at any time. I have tried attaching the clips to a separate dynamic clip and then targeting it but problems with the registration point (0,0) of that clip means I cannot achieve the result I want:
Code:
for(i=0;i<20;i++){
mc = this.attachMovie("red","red2"+i,i);
var scaleFactor:Number = Math.random() * 80 + 20;
mc._x = Math.random()*500;
mc._y = Math.random()*400;
mc._xscale = scaleFactor;
mc._yscale = scaleFactor;
blue.onRelease = function(){
new Tween(mc,"_xscale",Strong.easeOut,mc._xscale,200,3,true);
new Tween(mc,"_yscale",Strong.easeOut,mc._yscale,200,3,true);
}}
is there a cleaner way to attach movie clips than this type of syntax?
_root.attachMovie ("Frame", "frame", 60);
frame._x = 375;
frame._y = 375;

I would like to have one movieclip over the top of other attached ones. I have tried getNextHighestDepth on the movieclip, but it still doesn't work. Here is my code for attaching the movieclips:
PHP Code:
function growSpider() {
spiders = 0;
[code].....
I have a button that has an onPress function that attaches a movieclip with startDrag(true) so the attached movie snaps to the mouse and can be dragged around. The problem is that I don't know how to set up the onRelease function so that when the mouse button is lifted the attached movieclip is removed. Also, the attached movie appears in the upper left corner for just an instant before snapping to the mouse.
View 9 RepliesAs you can see I am attempting to assign x,y positions to clips that are being "attached."
var clipArray = new Array();
clipArray = [189, 275, 361]; // x positions
for (var i:Number = 1; i < 4; i++) {
this.attachMovie("clip"+i,"butt_"+i,i,{_x: [clipArray(i-1)], _y: 142});
}
say I have a clip with an onEnterFrame running on it with a hit test to check if the user has rolled off the clip . . . Then i create an empty clip within that clip and attach clips to it. Will my .onEnterFrame and hitTest now apply to the clips i have attached to the original clip?
View 2 RepliesI have the following problem. I have a attachSound for three wav files in the library. This is the code:
Code:
song1 = new Sound();
song1.attachSound("song1");
song2 = new Sound();

This is also working.When I press the button the music stops. When I press the song1 button, song1 start playing again. But when I press on of the othet two buttons nothing happens. This is the code for the buttons:
Code:
on (release){
_root.mc_menu.song1.start();
_root.mc_menu.song2.stop();
_root.mc_menu.song3.stop();
}
why the attached movies when they are bigger than the stage go to the next line but tahy stay all in the same location

I'm building a video chat in flash and everything works really well, except for the part where I'm trying to detect if the other user is sending a working video stream. There's a couple of reasons why the other user isn't sending video.
-The other user got no camera
-The other user got a camera, but the camera is currently being occupied by another application(Skype, Photo Booth, Google Talk, etc.)
-The other user got a camera but hasn't allowed the use of his/hers camera.
(Other unexpected problems I guess...)
So how do I detect if the stream I receive from the other user is a black stream(because of the reasons above) using the NetStream class? The closest thing I have came up with is by adding a timer that polls the currentFps() function from the stream I receive from the other user. But so far this seems pretty unreliable because I might get currentFps() == 0 and show an error because of this even though I actually got video from the stream in some cases. The reason for this is because I poll the API every 4 seconds for the currentFPS function and let's say at 00:00:04 I get "no video" according to the poll but at 00:00:05 the video kicks in, and therefor I need to wait until the next tick until the error message disappears
This is what my current poll looks like
function subscribingStatusPoll(e:TimerEvent):void {
if (subscribingStream.currentFPS == 0){
error.text = "No video found from the other user...
} else {
error.text = "";
}}
This is the only hack I that I can come up with to detect this, but this is unreliable and I actually would prefer a way to instantly detect if the stream I receive got a working video attached to it.
I'm loading an item to the stage and trying to apply a function to it but it doesn't seem to work.
Code:
_root.attachMovie("FullScreenBTN","FullScreenBTN",_root.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.FullScreenBTN.onRelease = function(){
trace("test")
}
When I press the button nothing happens, but when I remove the attach code and just put the button on the stage with the appropriate instance name it does work.
I have multiple movie clips on stage (all in separate layers, of course) as well as buttons on stage to play each movie clip. There are buttons inside each movie clip. The problem is that the buttons inside the top layered movie clip work, but the others in the movie clips below don't.

I'm having three movie clips, which I would like to move randomly within a set box. The following script works with one movie, but not with all movies placed in an array.

I have a dynamic text box in one movie clip, and a button in another movie clip. I need for that button to display a text file in the text box (in the other movie clip) when it is released.There really isn't any way to join these clips, given the design of my site. Here is the code I have for my old design, when the button and the box were in the same clip:
on (release) {
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("journal/2004-09-12.txt");

I have what should be a simple bit of code. I have 25 movie clips laid out in a grid; each is named myVideo1, myVideo2, etc. When a clip is mouseovered, it should start playing and loop until mouseout, whereupon it will stop.
Here is the code:
Code:
import fl.video.*;
for (var i = 1; i <= 25; i++) {
["myVideo" + i]addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, playMovie);
["myVideo" + i]addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,stopMovie);
[Code].....
then the listener and function work fine for that particular clip. The two mouse listeners work fine with the dynamic assignation. I was hoping to avoid having to add 25 lines of code to setup the VideoEVent listener for each individual clip and don't understand why ["myVideo" + i] doesn't work as it does for the mouse event listeners.
I have a clip i need instances of on the stage, and it is not practical to add the instances via actionscript, so I drag them on the stance and name the instances.
The attached code is for the clip class, ProductBubble. I am populating the object's properties in the main document class, as in:
