I call a function changePhoto with setInterval.Furthermore I got two buttons (pause and play).Now with pause I just clearInterval and with play I want to start where changePhoto has been stopped???
Code:
nav_mc.pause_mc.onRelease = function()
{
trace("Pause this "+pIndex);[code].....
Wondering if there's anyway this can be done? Or is there anyway you can return the time elapsed since the last function call?
Reason being that I'm using it in a project that really requires the option to pause the game. So I'd need to "pause" an interval when the game is paused and then resume it from where it was stopped when the game is resumed.
I have only been using flash for a few months and have not yet utilized setInterval. I have a loop that I want to run through once and then pause and then continue etc. So I can have each little test.swf pop up one by one rather than all at once
Code:
createEmptyMovieClip("menu", 10);
function createMenus() {
aMenu = new Array();
aMenu = ["test.swf", "test2.swf", "test.swf", "test2.swf"];
for (i=0; i<aMenu.length; i++) {
menu.createEmptyMovieClip("menu"+i, 100+i);
menu["menu"+i]._x = i*100;
menu["menu"+i]._y = 100;
menu["menu"+i].loadMovie(aMenu[i]);
}}
What I have is the initial forloop that gets the fabric sections. Then a forloop within this loop to get the subsections.the locations of where the thumbs in the subsection should go are stored in the destThumb variables and then fed through to an easing function.however, each subsection group is also aligned depending on the previous subsection._height.So the thumbs are going to their right relative positions,but the subsections are not.'m assuming this is because the ._heights are being calculated instantly as the thumbs are beginning to ease,therefore making subsection only the height of one row of thumbs. canI use a setInterval somewhere to have the forloop pause before it loops again? Allowing time for the thumbs to ease in place creating the final height? this is just the top snippet of code:
for (var i = 0; i<theFabrics.length; i++) {
var storeHeight = materialSection._height;
var storeYLoc = materialSection._y;[code]............
I have a timeline of 30 frames, each it's own mc (page01_mc, etc.). In each mc I show a picture or two and hear narration.I have a first, prev and next nav on the main timeline. I need to add a play/pause btn that will pause both pictures and sound. I assume I do that in each mc, but do not know where to find the code.Here is what is in each mc now:
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
mySound.load(new URLRequest("english/Intro01.mp3"));
mySound.play()
I have been having trouble with the timer, knowing how to plug into the scripts/Functions the correct way. Below is the script (probably not written as efficently as it could be, but I'm trying) Anyway, the script is uses simple tweens for a movieclip. I would like to use the timer/setinterval function to pause the animation between tweens (Using the event listener after the tween stops to start the interval/pause) Is this the right concept or am I barking up the wrong tree.
[Code]...
I have a very straight forward piece I'm working on that involves copy fading in and out but, instead of using the time-line for timings I'd like to use some script. It's just copy fades in (hold for three seconds) then fades out (hold for one second) copy fades in (hold for three seconds) etc.

I have several products I want to animate with graphics and text individualy then stack them on a time line for output with play and pause buttons. Is there a tutorial somwhere that shows you how to do this? and how do I stop the entire animation on a frame, I don't understand "not_set_yet"
View 4 RepliesBasically, I have a presentation movie with a few complexities to it.
1. The movie Plays, then waits an interval of time, then resumes (works alright)
2. The movie needs to have a pause button (that will pause the action) and a play button that will resume the action.
My problem: Once I pause and then hit play the play button ignores the "countdown" of setInterval and just "skips" ahead to the next part. I'm putting in a voice over and I really need that interval of time there or stuff will run into each other.
On the first frame (but indicative of the rest):
Code:
stop();
/* Sound Stuff */
var mySound = new Sound(this);
mySound.attachSound("soundIntroduction");

I'm trying to play through a MovieClip frame by frame using setInterval. Overall I'm trying to imitate speeding up and slowing down of the MovieClip by changing the setInterval time. Basically, when a user moves the Slider the MovieClip needs to speed up or slow down based on the Slider value. EDIT: The code above works to a certain extent. As in the slider updates updateClip() and the MovieClip does actually play at one speed. But the MovieClip does not play at the speed variable value. If I remove the ClearInterval() the MovieClip just plays at one speed but then doubles when the Slider is changed. What I'm looking for is the MovieClip to play at the same rate as speed value.

how to control a pause/play button by pressing only the space bar, as I have the animation inside a movie clip.
I tried just using a simple code, such as:
on (keyPress "<Space>") {stop();
play();
}
But as I guessed, it only paused and re-played the movie, so I suppose I need a condition for when it's either paused or playing, but I'm a little (a lot) inexperienced in coding in general.
I have imported the video in FLASH CS4 and want to make my own play/pause button.
View 1 RepliesI have created my first Flash CS4 presentation. It includes nine, mostly text, scenes, with no audio or video. The entire presentation has a row of nine circles across the top that distinguishes each chapter (scene) of the presentation. The presentation (movie) currently plays without stopping.Now my client wants to be able to click on each circle to pause/play the presentation at that chapter (scene), skip a chapter (scene), or go back to play a previous viewed chapter (scene).Can anyone recommend a simple scene pause/play script I can add to each circle (which will now become buttons)?

HOW DO I MAKE THE SLIDEPANEL AUTOPLAY AND BE INTERRUPTED WHEN THE USER CLICKS ON THE BTN?
here's the tutorial i learned the slidepanel. [URL] working in a AS 2.0 format. I made a slidepanel where it is a movieclip of combined images that make a long strip, depicting different images. Going to a particular image is through invisible buttons on the bottom with instance names. The actionscript layer contains commands:

I am using a stop(); gotoAndPlay with setInterval on a series of swf files that are loaded into a container movie. There is a bug in doing this, in which when one of the swfs is loaded into the container and you click on a link to load a different swf before the current swf has gotten to the frame in which you reach this function, its stops the function and nothing pauses/plays anymore.

function playpauseButtonClick( event:MouseEvent):void {

I want to know if there is a command or actionscript that will allow you to pause the movie automatically for like 30 seconds and then continue the movie after 30 seconds have passed, instead of adding alot of frames for about that add up to 30 secs. Just like the goto and play command.

View 3 RepliesI have created a flah player with no controls which loads an ecternal flash video. What the client wants is to be able to pause and play the movie by clicking on it. I have an FLVPlayback component with the name MyVideo. All the actionscript I have at the moment is the following
myVideo.contentPath = file;
myVideo.autoRewind = auto;
File is a variable passed by SWFObject, this is the filename of the external Flash Video. This is so they can use the player with an video. Auto is a parameter passed by SWFObject so they can set whether the movie auto rewinds or not.
The pause button in my MP3 player resets the track to the beginning, there is something wrong with my sound channel because when i trace the position it is always zero.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI have a simple slide show with a forward & backward button, as well as a play & pause button.
The play/pause buttons toggle visability with this code (on its own actionscript layer)[code]...
However, this didn't work - at least not the way I wanted. This code causes the pause button to show up when you cycle through the images and get back to frame one - somehow forcing the net stream to play again.
tell by my code why that would happen? I'd at least like to know how to show the pause button whilst it's playing and vice-versa for the play button.
I checked all flaskit sources and tutorials. All of them are telling about mp3 players with stop, play and pause buttons.
Is there any source or tutorial about a radio which continiously play songs ? No pause, no play, no stop button. it will play songs in specific folder nonstop in loop. ?
