ActionScript 2.0 :: Removing The OnEnterFrame At The Beginning Of The XML To Variables Line Of Code, So That Is Stops Running?
Mar 26, 2006
I have a bunch of thumbnails i'm getting from XML that have this code on them...
Code:
for (e = 0; e < total; e++) {
_root.web_thumbs.thumb_button.duplicateMovieClip("button" + e, e + 12);
_root.web_thumbs["button" + e].c = e;[code].....]);
It loads the XML variable fullimg into an empty movie clip on its own layer in the timeline.The movieclip, "container", is assigned this code, but the code isn't on the movieclip, it's on a frame designated for just actionscript.This is the code
Code:
container.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x = int(content._x - (content._width / 2) + 30);
this._y = int(content._y - (content._height / 2) + 30);
}
The Problem Is...When there is no image loaded into the movie clip, it works fine, and shifts around depending on the location of the other movie clip, "content". But, once there is an image loaded into "container", it stops shifting around depending on the location of "content", and just sits in its last location.The only thing i can IMAGINE being problematic is, on another frame, where I have the XML being cut up and assigned to variables, at the end I have a remove _root.onEnterFrame, removing the onEnterFrame at the beginning of the XML to variables line of code, so that is stops running.

I have a project for mobile where some of my animations scenes look as though they are winding up or playing in slow motion (from the start). They start out slow for about three seconds, as if they are winding up or in slow motion, and then they run at a normal pace. It only happens on specific animations and is consistent on different devices. Also, once I come back to the scene (revisit), the animations run normally from start to finish.
I have had some success in speeding up some animation by doing the following: In some scenes, the following would occurr: 1) a character was walking 2) the character grew in size though tweening 3) the background was animated as well ect. In other words, there were several things happening in the animation. In this example, I made it less complex by keeping the character the same size and making the background static. This helped alot. However, for the aforemation animations, I have tried everything (I am aware of) and nothing has helped. I'm not sure what to do next.

I have a set of movie clips that are attached to the stage every so often. The attached movie clips all move independently with their own class code. After I changed something in an unrelated class, my attached movie clips only run their onEnterFrame() code once, instead of once per frame. I called up the list of variables, and my movies (which are passed into an array) are all "undefined". I'm not really sure whats causing these movie clips to not run their code properly. This is the code for attaching them:
ActionScript Code:
var target = _root.attachMovie("Target", "Target" + _root.getNextHighestDepth(), _root.framework.depth[7]);
target._y = _root.framework.paths[attachlocation][0]._y

I have one line that is going down 500 pixels with the instance called 'vertical'. I also have a line set next to it with aplha = 0. When the vertical line going down reaches 300 pixels, I want the line which is set to 0 to set the alpha = 100. The code I am trying does not work.. Here is what I am putting in
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (vertical._height = 300) {
this._alpha = 100}
}
Seems simple enough, but the line becomes 100% alpha from the very beginning of the movie. Do I have to do anything with _root or what?

I am converting from .FLV's to .F4V. Video outputs fine but the audio sound stops after a few seconds from the beginning.I have tried many different settings for the audio with no luck. Also, tried on a colleague's machine who is running CS3, which works fine, so something is buggy in CS4...

I have a Flash website that moves from page to page by jumping to various frames in the timeline. Clicking on a button causes a jump to a specific frame. It is necessary to have stops in several frames. I'm trying to run an mp3 player in the background. The player is running on it's own layer. It works when I launch the page and when I go from page to page until I hit a frame with a stop at which point, the player stops. How can I prevent this?

I am working on someones as2 file and I noticed that they had an onEnterFrame running non stop in the movie. I don't use onEnterFrame personally. So I tried to create a conditional to stop it. While the conditional worked its stopped the fluid animation they had used. So I need to figure out some other way to get rid of the onEnterFrame. Anyone have any ideas here? The AS basically resizes a box on stage when certain movies are loaded.[code]

onEnterFrame=null, onEnterFrame=undefined & delete onEnterFrame....
Which one to use??? What are the performance considerations. If all my movieclips on-stage are running a MovieClip.prototype.onEnterFrame = function() {run initial stuff before setting onEnterFrame=null/undefined... }, will there be performance hits? It's sad that delete onEnterFrame doesn't work unless I delete the prototype enterFrame as well, which would make the clips reinitailise itself again once you declare the enterFrame prototype again (i need to do this since there's more movieclips that end up appearing on-stage, and they need to automatically initialises themselves the moment they appear).

I'm trying to kill off all running tweens by using:
_level0.__OnEnterFrameBeacon.removeMovieClip();
However, it appears to have no effect. The movieclip running the tweens, holder, is on _level0/_root and leaves its tweens running behind it after holder is deleted. I was advised to remove __OnEnterFrameBeacon but it doesn't seem to kill the tweens.
Code:
Select allfunction Switch() {
_root.holder.removeMovieClip();
movieClipLoader.removeListener(listener);
galleryname = "portfolio2009";
_root.cleanUp();
var listener:Object = new Object();

i have this code:
Code:

delete this.onEnterFrame;
[code].....
problem is when i get to 95, everything works well, but when i get to 105, the onEnterFrame had already been deleted so that code doesnt run anymore. how can i accomplish this so that the code on 105 runs?

I am trying to dispatch an event but not sure when I should do it to get the right results. The first event "submitClicked" is in the right spot and works great. However, the second event "dataReady" seems like it might be a problem. I need it to be dispatched after this.compiledFormData is set.Does AS3 wait for each line of code in a function to be executed before moving on to the next line?

I have this function inside a this.onEnterFrame function. What I need it to do is that every time I hit Q, the variable (_dropAdjust) should decrease by 1, and every time I hit A, it should increase by 1.
What it is doing, is that every time I hit either of the buttons, the variable decreases or increases by a increment dependent of the time that has passed, but I still need to have the function inside the onEnterFrame, because if not I can only hit the button once.
ActionScript Code:
this.onEnterFrame = function () {
var _adjustListener:Object = new Object();

i have this code that should get a face (eyes, shape, etc) in motion on Mouse Over. The thing is i dont know how to loop this onMouseOver code so it works like an onEnterFrame handler (while onMouseOver).Another way to put it: as long as the mouse stays over the Mclip i want the code to loop. How can i do this?Here is my code:

Got 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?

i just want to convert special characters in from MS Word to simple characters. So you copy and paste what you've written in MS Word into this swf... hit a button and it converts the special characters into plain ones... problem is that when i convert it, all the new lines from MS Word disappear...
so:
Hello there. How are you?
becomes:
Hello there.How are you?
It works if you actually press enter when you're in the static text box, but if you copy and paste it from MS Word it just doesn't work.
I have my Dynamic text box set to Multiline.
So i've thought of 2 options... either there is something else i have to tick or some little bit of coding i can add... or... maybe there is a way using the split and join function that i can add a new line where ever one has been added in MS Word, though i don't know if that would be possible...
it would need to go .split(" ??? ").join("
")
what would i use to identify the new line from the static text to convert it to the dynamic text?

I've been really frustrated with the code hinting in CS5. It doesn't seem to work like it should. It appears to work fine if I am placing the code on the timeline, but if I create a class file I lose the class code hinting even for simple types like Boolean. The other thing I noticed is after the class file has been created even if I go back to the code on the timeline it has now lost code hinting. The only way to get them back is to close the fla I was working and close flash itself.how to resolve this or is this a legitimate bug? If others have seen this happen please post so that we can get some attention brought to this. It seems to work fine if you create flex components and then edit them in Flash Builder.

I am working on a project in flash cs4 and have Adobe Air 1.5 as player as this will be air appi. But other than using localstore to save my data everything else is pure flash as3 code. Nothing special really. And I was just about to finish it when this problem occurred. If I delete a layer that has nothing else but a picture inside which I was using to position movies correctly, everything in frame 3 where my main code is stops working. It doesn't trace anything, it just stops but actions on frame 1 and 2 work just fine. I don't get any errors either.
I deleted all the code from my main action layer in frame 3 and it still doesn't trace simple trace("aa");. As if everything I've put on the layers can't be changed or it just stops working. Same thing if I change a sound in the library, just updating it with another and it stops working. I just can't find the answer really. I rearranged things, deleted movies, basically everything and still no answer. I even tested it in flash cs3 and same thing happens. But I used this kind of methods before (deleting layers that I didn't need) and never had this problem before.

I'm new to webdevelopment and I am looking for some tutorials or resources about how to run C++ code in a browser. I soon going to do a degree project which implements a sound service in a browser (like flash I guess) using a provided DLL + my own program, so I'm looking for some starters on where to look. I don't have alot of webdevelopment experience but I do have a programming background C/C++. Cheers

I've made a MovieClip of an electric wire with 3 different keyframes with a few frames between each. The first 2 keyframes have a single bitmap in each with a different picture, I want it to cycle between these two to make it look like the electricity is moving and not just sitting there. The 3rd keyframe has nothing, eventually I will put an image with the electricity off, so the player can walk through, I just haven't done it yet. Since I don't want it to run the last keyframe until the player turns it off, I put a gotoAndPlay(); command in the movie clip after the second frame looping it back to the first frame, problem is, the line refuses to work.
I have copied and pasted it from other programs where it worked, I have checked the Frame Name, I put other lines in there, like stop(); trace(); and other things, but could not get ANY line of code to work in the MovieClip. There's probably something like "the layer is invisible, code will not run", but I can't tell what it is. I've deleted the symbol and started over, same problem. I've restarted Flash, same problem. I've restarted the computer, same problem. I even took it to a different computer, same problem. I don't know why it won't run this code, is there something disabling it that I overlooked? I have other code in the main timeline outside the movie clip and code in other movieclips that has always worked fine and continues to work fine, I don't see what the problem is.
I ignored the problem for a while, and worked on other things, but I had to add multiple frames to an existing movieclip (which I believe was created before the other one), and now this movieclip is having the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this, before it spreads to the rest?

I am publishing an animation which needs to dispatch events from certain frames on the timeline. The document class is InteractiveAnimation - here's the important bit:[code]When I load it into my player application (into the same ApplicationDomain, I might add) all I get is:"Running constructor of InteractiveAnimation" the timeline trace doesn't happen. Or any other timeline code for that matter.What is killing the framescripts? Has anyone even got any suggestions as to how I might continue to track this down?

I have an older program that I need to update. In it I there is a movieclip that displays text. Embedded in that movieclip is a timer that makes the text disappear after a few seconds. Everything worked fine before when I was using flash to put the clips on the stage. Now I need export the symbols and use addChild to display them. My problem is that the timer is starting when I assign the clip to the variable (frame 1), not when I need it to; which is after I add the child (frame 70-ish). If I were starting over there is probably a million simple solutions to this, but I am trying to not rework everything I already made to fix this seemlingly small problem.
