i want to put a condition on the button event on (release) to check which frame of the movie symbol is stopped. something like if(frame 3 is stoped) gotoAndPlay(14).
View 3 RepliesI'm new to Flash and am looking to use the following tutorial to create an advanced button. I know it is probably a very simple fix, I just cannot figure it out. [URL] In the tutorial the rollover and onrelease has the following script this.onRollOut = function(){ rewind = true;} this.onRelease = function(){getURL [URL]); } I have tried to change the on.Release command to go to and play another frame in to movie instead of opening a new url. But I'm not getting it to work correctly.
View 4 Repliesi'm trying to use if statements but can't get this thing to work i want to check if another button is visible on release of a button to determine what action to be taken.the 'gotoAndPlay("firstscene",1)' is just there as an outcome, will be changed later. anyway this is the code i've got on the button i'm pressing. blobyellow2 is an instance of a button blobyellow is it because it's an instance that it's not working?

edit: sorry forgot to put what's wrong with the code. it acts as though the statement is correct no matter if it is or isn't.
I installed a Flash template that has some "Read More" buttons.I see the actionscript for a button is:
Header 1onClipEvent (load) { num = 1; this.title2.num = 4; // this line is the frame number of the symbol which the button links to this.title2.name1 = "More 04";}
After experimenting, I realize that it is the 3rd line which controls which page (ie/ frame number) the button links to.So in the above example, the button will link to frame 4 of the symbol.In another button that same line reads:this.title2.num = 5 and so clicking that button will link to frame 5 of the symbol.Now here in that above code shows which symbol to go to - it just seems to know where to go (it actually goes to a symbol called 'Content Movie Y6').So my question is, how does it know which symbol to link to?I'd like to know in case I want to change the link in the future.
More info:All of these "Read More" buttons have a roll-over effect which is a movie clip symbol called 'button_more'.The actionscript code for the button_more symbol is:
Header 1on (rollOver) { if (_root.link<>6) [code].....
I still can't see anywhere where it configures which symbol to play upon release of the button.
I hit enter,it only plays next frame and then goes back to the frame where it stopped. What I've tried was something like:
stop();
Key.addListener(Key.ENTER)
if (Key.isDown.ENTER){
play();
};
I want it to play all the way to the end,not just go back.
I built a button in one of the movie clips in my project,
when I release this button, it goes to the 41st frame of the main timeline and continue to play until the frame 70 which has got a stop; command. till here everything's just OK. But I want this button to do something more though I don't know whether it's possible or not.
I want this button to go and play the frame number 41 in the main timeline, and then after it stopped at the frame 70 , then jump to frame 73.
I'm making a slots... but i have a prob. If a stop my movie, I can't know on which frame my movie is stopped. Is there a syntax-code to give me the number of the frame a that moment?
View 5 RepliesSo i've done SOME work with flash and AS3, right now i'm working on a website for my boss, he bought some template online which has stuff laid out and animated and everything already, now I just have to integrate our content.My issue is this, I've got 2 symbols on the screen, one of which contains alot of buttons that list our services as company, the second symbol contains the content (or descriptions) of those services, which on are separate keyframes.What I'm trying to accomplish is that when you hit the button in "symbol A", it affects the "symbol B" and goes to the corresponding keyframe.For example when I click "button 2" in "symbol A", "symbol B" goes to keyframe 2.Now if they were in the same symbol it would be something like
on(release){
goToAndStop(2);
}

I want my button to go to a particular frame on release,show me the AS for this? I am using Flash MX for reference.
View 3 RepliesI'm taking a class on Flash right now but its set up in this strange manner where they barely teach you actionscript at all but expect you to be able to take the examples in class and work and amend them into your projects. I am trying to write a function for a button that will gotoAndPlay one frame beyond where the timeline presently is stopped at.

Im creating a simple flash presentation and i have created four buttons, what i want to now do is make each button go to a differant frame on the timeline, im guessing this is go to and stop? But i cant figure it out [URL]
View 1 RepliesI have a scrollout menu for my flash movie, but each of the buttons have to be movies symbols. I try to attach:
on (release) {
gotoand stop(4)
}
But I get the error that this script only works for buttons. Anyone able to lend some assist? I suck at actionscript.
here is my script:
stop();
//setting up the list of frame names for the buttons
imagelist = ["horror","legs","chair"];[code]....
So my problem is that on the button release it doesn't go to the frame that I labelled .My button symbol is called b_next with instance name of next_b. So don't think thats the problem. Is it because I made an array that equals the instance name of my frames?
I am developing a multiple choice question answer. I have a movie clip in frame 2 where the radio buttons and question choices are displayed.I am trying to define a event for the radio button in the movie clip's first frame. But i show questions in random order. Say for example the first question to show is fifth I move the movieclip to 5th frame. The event is not firing since it is declared in the first frame.Should i place the button event code in each and every single frame or is there anyother option for this.
View 0 RepliesI'm fairly competent with AS2, and I've been using it to code an interface with in flash CS5 (I know, I need to embrace the AS3, but I don't have the time right now).Anyway, I hit a little snag. I've got a video container symbol, inside which there is a video player, which is animated with a fade in/ fade out animation on the frames of the video container. On the first frame of this symbol there is a "stop();".What I want to be able to do is use different buttons in different symbols and frames around the flash file to set variables, which the video container can then read and fade in appropriately.
I've already got the buttons to set the variables I want it to. Each button will set the contentPath of the actual flvplayer, and set a "vp" variable to 1(_global variable). In the video container's first frame, I've told it to gotoAndPlay frame 2 when _global.vp == 1 - However, the video container won't read the vp variable when it's been stopped.So what am I doing wrong? how am I supposed to get the video to fade in on the click of a button, which will also set the contentPath of the video?
Underlined Text On (rollOver) Is there an action script to do on (rollover) underline text? It would be on a button that would also, on (release) gotoAndPlay a frame. I know you can have a movie with AS like this:
[Code]....
But when I add the on (release) to the movie it doesnt advance the timeline on (release). And when I change the file to a button instead of a movie clip it doesnt do the underline on (rollOver).
I have a movie that consists of various audio files fading in and out of various scenes as the timeline progresses. The current mute button I've created only appears to stop the audio track currently playing when pressed. How do I silence the movie from the point of button release until the movie has played to the end? Just as an FYI, the audio files are loaded and managed manually on the timeline itself.

View 3 RepliesI want to start my for loop at a certain number, and make it loop. Like this: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
If the maximum number is 10 and it starts at 5. The reason is because I want to loop through every tile in my game in a certain order (top to down, then go right).

}
on (rollOut) {

each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.

View 4 RepliesI have a small flash site made up of a number of pages all on the one timeline.
The query is this. When i release a button i want the timeline to roll on for x frames (fading components out) before going to the frame that button links to (The beginning of the new page).
I have no idea what AS to use for this.
No matter where in the timeline you are, the button should fade out that area and then skip to a new one.
I am creating a site, and it has a animation that it has to play before loading the next section. What I cant figure out is what function I need to create so that when a user clicks on the vision button it will play the frame after stop(); which will close that section, then have it load the frame for the section that the person clicked on. The only way I can think of doing this is creating 3 different close animations for the three sections. But I figure there has to be a way to have it play the one close animation and then goto the frame which is the portfolio section or vision section (depending on the button clicked).
