ActionScript 2.0 :: MCL + Keep Clicking A Clip To Transition To The Next + Images
Jun 15, 2005Just starting out with the MovieClipLoader class and have gotten what I wanted with an image being loaded - a 'blinds' transition - click on the clip to view the next image - also a 'blinds' transit. But these two are using one MCL obj. and I've sort of run out of ways to then click on the second image to load a third...thus, need to do some re-writing for a new function? How can I keep clicking a clip to transition to the next - and where could I place a second or third MCL obj. w/out conflicting with the first?

Jul 2, 2009Is it possible for me to have 1 movieclip consisting of multiple movie clips, in a .fla file, and reference specific frames of clips within a frame of the movie clip, from an outside .as file?
In a .fla file I have a movie clip that consists of several frames, each containing a different movie clip to perform different actions of a character I am attempting to animate.The basics of the code work fine, but now I'm trying to get into more detailed aspects of the characters actions and interactions and all the tutorials that I've come across thus far direct me to add various aspects of code throughout my animation which I feel would litter my program as this project grows.My basic code is as follows
class hero extends MovieClip{ variable definitions up here [code]...........
This works fine.Beyond this,I have a frame with the anchor lable "Punch" which contains a movie clip consisting of 5 frames.Is it possible for me to reference specific frames within the movie clip within this frame of the big movie clip?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Play A Movie Clip By Clicking A Button
Nov 20, 2010I have a button on the stage called 'play_btn' and a movieclip called 'movie_mc'. The movieclip has a stop on it's first fame so that it doesn't play on the main timeline. I want to use actionscript to have the movieclip play when the button is clicked.I know i need to do some kind of movie_mc.gotoAndPlay('2') on the button or something like that.

Apr 8, 2012I have intro audio music playing on a project I am working on. The audio is in the timeline (but doesn't necessarily have to be), and when I click a button to move away from it, it just keeps playing. I can use SoundMixer.stopAll(); to make is stop as you click the button, but this makes a rather harsh abrupt stop to the music that is undesirable. I would like to have it fade the audio track out once the button is clicked.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cursor Locking Up Upon Clicking A Movie Clip Button
Sep 30, 2009I have a custom cursor that locks up upon clicking a movie clip button. The move clip is slightly different in that it is an invisible button that has other animations locked to its position as child states. This is due to me wanting the user to be able to drag the box you see in the file.The problem is most likely the way the parent child system is set up as I am unable to get the top position mouse event to work on it either yet it works fine on the green box I quickly made within this swf.

May 19, 2009So far my logic seems fine for half of the experiment, however, not the other half:[URL] What I'm trying to accomplish is when a user holds down the mouse and drags it across the stage the movie clip will rotate in 3D space horizontally. That works, however, when the mouse is released the movie continues to rotate along with the mouse position. When the movie clip is clicked again then it will stop rotating, but it cannot be clicked and dragged a second time. The link above explains it the best. Also I want to make it so the movie will start to rotate when the mouse is down anywhere on the stage and not just the mc itself.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Playing An Audio Clip From Local Library, When Clicking On An External SWF Button
Mar 7, 2007I currently have random external swfs of "Buttons" loading and unloading into mc_containers into my main movie. These load and unload every couple of seconds.
What I would like to do is have sounds associated with these.. So if you was to click on one of the buttons, it would play a sound.
I have tried this by placing the sound in the button "down" section. However, it starts to play the audio and then as soon as the SWF unloads to load the next, the audio stops.
My question is: Is there a way that when you click on the external SWF loaded button - that it would then link to an audio file in the "main" timeline/library ? This way the audio would continue playing even though the SWF has unloaded.

ActionScript 2.0 :: FMX: Get Reference To Clicked On Movie Clip?
Aug 31, 2005I normally write javascript code, so I wonder how to do this. In JS "Microsoft IS" you'll write code like this:
document.onclick = func;
function func()
{
var obj = event.srcElement; //And there I have reference to the object;
}
The graphic designer creates flash drawings and then converts whatever objects to movieclips. Then passes them over to me. All these "mc" need the same action applied to them. So I don't need to know how many they are or their names.

View 6 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Tweenlite Keeping Reference To The Clip?
Aug 17, 2009TweenLite seemingly keeping a reference to my clip. In one method I do:
detail.btnBack.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeDetail, false, 0, true);
Then I have the removeDetail, and killDetail methods:
private function removeDetail(e:MouseEvent):void
{
TweenLite.to(detail, .5, { alpha:0, onComplete:killDetail } );
}
[code]...
This _seems_ to work, except the removeChild is not working - the detail clip is faded, and killDetail is called, but the clip remains. If I remove the TweenLite fade and do the removeChild right in removeDetail() the clip is fully removed from the display list. I've tried doing a TweenLite.killTweensOf(detail) within the killDetail(), before removing child on it, but that doesn't help.

I have about 10 different movie clips on the parent timeline that I have hidden (dc_mc.visible = false.So what I need to do is take one of the variable names that I've got from my text file and use its value to "turn on" one of these hidden movie clips.So I'm trying stuff like:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Compiler Is Throwing That 1000: Ambiguous Reference Error For Any Reference ?
Sep 3, 2007I'm having this frustrating error showing up and I have no idea why. Let me show you my classes and see if you can spot anything wrong.
First, here's my ILode interface:
ActionScript Code:
package com.schelterstudios.lodeSystem.flash.lodescode].....
So the problem I'm having is the compiler is throwing that 1000: Ambiguous reference error for any reference to instance.priority or instance.label. Why??? Instance is typed to IFlexLodeInstance, and IFlexLodeInstance lists method signatures of priority and label getters, and it inherits ILode, which lists method signatures for priority and label setters. What can I do to get the compiler to stop complaining?
