View 1 RepliesI've got a file that loads 4 external swf files. I've got everything correct as far as how it's listening for when each one is finished loading and then the next one knows to play. So I can get each one to play right after the other just fine. My problem is that they don't all have the same number of frames so in between the movies, there's a blip of a previous movie showing up (atleast I think it's due to varied movie length). I want to put in a removeChild function when it's listening for each movie to finish loading. But when I put in: removeChild(myLoader);, it says myLoader is undefined..
Code:
var a:Array = new Array("movie1.swf", "movie2.swf", "movie3.swf", "movie4.swf");
var iArray:Number = a.length; // number of movies
var iCount:Number = 0;
function manageMovies(){
loadMovie(a[0])
}

View 10 RepliesGot to the point where the hole in my AS3 knowledge is getting large!Realising I have confusion about the relationship of:Body of code on first frame of AS3 file.(Which I have so far used to create instances of library objects using addchild and make calls to class code).Is this code called the document code? What do people call it?Numerous classes linked together by extending each other etc.Library objects (usually graphical objects)Should it be done differently? have the following problems due to lack of understanding:Addchild complicated from a class but straight forward in main body code.Cant call functions on the main body code from classes, because class code does not know the main body code exists?

Currently the code is on a clip which contains the clip "walls". and player is on the _root timeline.

View 3 RepliesI have a timeline with a bunch of frames. At the beginning of my timeline (frame 2) I have actionscript that makes movieclips that are transparent (alpha 0) visible, and also some rollover and link/button code using a tween class. On frame 3 I have other movies that are visible etc. Frame 3 has stop code, and a frame anchor named "page2". For instance for the moviedclip "page_1" I have this code:

I'm testing flash and decided to make an asteroids clone. It works well but all the code is loaded in the first, and only, frame.Now I want to add a preloader but I cant find the way to move the code to the second frame. I don't want to create a swf and embed it. Also there are no assets created in flash, it has been coded exclusively in flashdevelop (I find it easier to use).

Was testing out my movie and using the simulate download option. Bored while waiting I started to resize the movie. Then I got an error about over 256 levels of recursion. Intrigued I tried to simulate the error again. I realized that it would only happen when I resized the movie a bunch while it was doing simulate download. Sometimes I would also get an error "A with action canceled because object didn't exist".
Digging through the code I couldn't figure it out. On the first frame of my movie all I had was a setInterval that changes the loadbar display to show how much is loading. It also tells it to stop(). Once loaded it tells it to gotoAndPlay(5). Frame 5 is where all of my other code is at. This error was happening at Frame 1? Then I remembered I had used "with" in some code to realign stuff on resize. Like:
[Code]....
As soon as I commented out the stagelistener stuff the error stopped. The stage code is on frame 5. It should not start running until the movie has loaded as frame 1 stops the movie until it is loaded. It is running BEFORE the movie is loaded though because I get the "with action" error and the 256 levels of recursion error. If I put a trace in the listener function it doesn't trace back until it is at frame 5, but for some reason part of it still runs. Anyway, sorry for the long explain...just a strange, strange error. Now I don't know what to do about it. I want the stage listener, but I definitely don't want an endless loop or other errors occurring.
I have 2 frames in my movie, 2 buttons and a video. On the first frame there is code for button #1. On the second frame i have code for button #2 but I'd also like to appear on the first frame. The problem is that when I put the code for the second button on the first frame, the video won't play. so I can only have it on the second frame. I can't figure out why the code, which works when its on frame 2, then won't work on frame 1. When I put the code on frame 1 it breaks the functionality and the video won't play.

Inside a mc on the first frame I have put the following alpha AS fade in;

But this last bit of code gets totally ignored and it doesnt fade out. I know it works because I have tested it in the first frame. Does the last bit of code in the first frame set the alpha for the rest of the mc and override anything else?

I have a button that I want to work on multiple frames. Currently, I have a scene that automatically starts to play when the playhead enters the first frame (no stop command). I have an event listener in the first frame that listens for a click. After the click the user is supposed to go to another scene.
The problem is that the button is not working. I am assuming that the code in the first frame only applies to the first frame and I need to add additional code that applies as the playhead is playing across the multiple frames.

I'm trying to attach this action on the first frame of the movie that I'm planning play.When I play the movie for the first time, the code executes as expected. However, when I restart or rewind to the first frame of the movie, the code no longer executes. I'm not sure why this is happening, as it seemed added actionscript code to a frame seems pretty straight forward.

I'm trying to create a site based on flash.I have 5 frames that correspond to different links and then buttons created with functions to move to each frame using gotoAndStop. On one of those frames i'm loading an image gallery (which seems to be working); however when I click on another button to go to a new frame the images from the gallery stay.I would like for them to disappear when I go to a new frame.I think this is an easy fix but i've been stuck on it for three days.[code]
