I'm using tweenlite to create a flicker affect on roll over, however when i rollover really fast the instance freezes half way through the transition and the button eventually goes to white. The code im using is as follows:

my buttons are getting stuck on fast rollovers and rollouts and i cant work out why. Ive followed that simple tut on how to make those long rollover buttons but in a small form yet they get stuck if you move of them too fast and i cant work out why.I have stop actions on frames 1 and 6 which is correct to what the video shows and i have.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with a flashsite I'm working on. It freezes when I click on the page with the most content on it. I use the "alpha" transition.
Here's the code:
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var p1age1 = new page1;
var p2age2 = new page2;
var p3age3 = new page3;

Movieclip I want to fade out: "StartupText_mc" Within "StartupText_mc" I have a frame labels "normal" on the first frame and "over" on the last. On the actions layer I have "stop();" on the first and last frame. On the third layer I have a simple alpa tween from 100% to 0%.
Now, Back to the main scene where the button "ProductMarketingIcon2_mc" and "StartupText_mc" exist next to each other. Here is the code I have for the button:

So I can create a circle and an oval using trig in flash. But what if I want to create an oval with rounder points? I'm using this code for circles and ovals:[code]Could anyone help me in editing the code so i can control the tips of the oval and make them rounder?
View 9 RepliesI have a movieclip with an image fading in and out (using an actionscript tween class set to yoyo). This movieclip is loaded into a dummy movieclip when a button is pressed. The first time you click the button the fading movieclip plays as it should, fading in and out continuously. However, the second or subsequent times the button is clicked the fading movieclip goes crazy, half fading in/out and half jumping from one alpha value to another.
View 7 RepliesI have got one movieclip that is a square it is 20 x 20 the movieclip changes from black to white when you roll over it and remains white. The problem I have is that I need 3000 of them and putting them in a grid format so the user can create there own black and white mosaic. But when I do it only the newest square added to the stage changes colour i think i have gone down the wrong path and I've hit a dead end.
This is my code (Which im 90% is all wrong):
PHP Code:
stop();
var sqreArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i:int = numChildren - 0;
i >= 3000; i++) {
var child:DisplayObject = getChildAt(i);

Building a flash website in CS3. I've made every button the exact same way, draw a rectangle, convert to symbol, type as either button or movie clip (doesn't seem to matter and I'm not using rollover stuff), alpha 0% and stick it on its own layer above everything else.Action scrip is as follows:
main1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoMain);
main2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoMain);
function gotoMain(event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
that's with 2 buttons for main. I have the exact same code multiple times for many different buttons. It works everywhere except the last two buttons on my page will work the first time you click them from the main page, but then don't work after that until you click on the main page again. Then it works.These two:
babout3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoAboutb1);
bcontact3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoBcontact1);
the function is described on an earlier action keyframe:
bcontact1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoBcontact1);
function gotoBcontact1(event:MouseEvent):void[code]...
Of course I've tried just having one button do this and copy/pasting the button on different areas of the movie, but nothing I've done fixes. I've even gone through and deleted every button and AS and redone it. I've put every button on its own layer (shouldn't matter but I'm trying everything I can think of).if there is an easier way of using AS to navigate a flash movie let me know. The other options I've seen seem a bit too complex at the moment.
The first half of the tween doesn't work but the second half does. It only does this when I add the code link._visible = 0;. This is to make the alpha completly disappear.
View 1 RepliesI'm currently working on a flashsite and are trying to figure out rollover menu buttons. The site has 6 menu buttons and are placed next to each other. I want to put a rollover action on the buttons, that when you rollover a button that the whole button image enlarges and moves in front of the other.

I want to rollover a button and have it trigger the rollover state of another button. The buttons overlap. The one on top is transparent and smaller than the bottom button. So far I think I have the AS3 to handle the rollover of the top button, but I don't know how to trigger the other button's rollover state.

I created a button bar with 6 buttons that display separate content. When I click on one of my buttons, it brings up the content alright, but on release creates an entire duplicate set of buttons on top of my existing set of buttons. I can click on another button, and it will display content okay, but add yet another set of buttons on top of itself. after 2 buttons it basically freezes. why are my buttons in essence copying itself, and how can i correct.
View 6 Replieshow to create a button class that looks something like this: Taken from this tutorial page. I'm struggling to figure out what combination of filters I need to use to achieve the glossy effect. The rounded corners and bevel/glow effect are simple enough.

View 2 RepliesI made a gallery, and i have 5 buttons. For each button a movieclip plays (a fade efect from 0 to 1 alpha). The movie is shown as long as the mouse button is held down, by having the scene return to the starting frame which has no movie clip. The problem is that if the mouse is within the movie clip when the button is released the movie freezes until i click another. More precisely it doesn't go to the first frame. How can i fix the problem?

I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
I'm sure I'll receive some sort of hate for posting this in the wrong area, but I'm really desperate for help and don't feel like searching further for the "correct forum." Anyway, I created a swf for the "education" page for a liquor store, it navigates through wine, beer, and liquor. All the links work well, however after you go to (for example) the liquor page, when you hit the "back button" on the browser, going back to the page with my swf file, the movie freezes after the first animation. I don't understand it, it only happens with firefox, which to my knowledge is one of the more progressive browsers, so what gives?! It even works perfectly on IE and my android phone, so I'm at a complete loss, as I'm more a designer than programmer. Please take a look and offer any obvious advice. I would be willing to make the video in AS3 if that is the only option, I just have no clue how to implement AS3... so confusing. The link to the swf in use is: http://www.whitehorsewine.com/education.php Each book having a button that triggers a movieclip with AS2. The movieclips all have stop(); at the end of them. The rest of the coding is in the timeline on a seperate layer:

i have looked everywhere for a tutorial on this - i have tried writing, and re-writing codes....i just cant get it. is there any tutorial i overlooked? here is what im looking to do - NO SHORTCUTS: have my main file that loads the buttons, my external swf container, my intro animations, and my swf "out" and "in" animations when a button is clicked i want it to point me to specific frame labels. i will have an "out" and "in" frame label and which will be the locations of the transitional starting points i want it to play the "out" transition, than unload the current swf, than play the in transition, than load the swf of the button that was clicked i want the animations to all be done using frame labels all within the MAIN swf file.... i have had no luck doing this....and i do NOT like the tween class....

How do I create a fast forward button that continuously fast forwards while the mouse is clicked and in the down position and plays at regular speed when the mouse is released?If nobody knows how to do that, then does anybody know how to make the movie fast forward when the button is clicked and then make it go back to play when the fast forward button is clicked again in a boolean sort of fashion? That's not preferred but I could live with that and it sounds easier.
View 1 RepliesOur web application has a feature which uses Flash (AS3) to take photos using the user's web cam, then passes the resulting byte array to PHP where it is reconstructed and saved on the server. However, we need to be able to take this web application offline, and we have chosen Gears to do so. The user takes the app offline, performs his tasks, then when he's reconnected to the server, we "sync" the data back with our central database.
We don't have PHP to interact with Flash anymore, but we still need to allow users to take and save photos. We don't know how to save a JPG that Flash creates in a local database. Our hope was that we could save the byte array, a serialized string, or somehow actually persist the object itself, then pass it back to either PHP or Flash (and then PHP) to recreate the JPG. We have tried:

I have a straight forward frame-by-frame animation with play and stop buttons. I want to create a fast forward button that will play (for example) every third frame until it is clicked again. Or, perhaps, until the stop button is clicked. This seems a simple task, fast forwarding FLVs, etc.

View 1 RepliesI would like to add a Fast forward button to my animation. I tried to modify existing AS2 code but I just cant get it to work. I'm getting errors about _root and it doesn't seem to like controller__mc. The AS2 version that works is:
forward_btn.onPress=function (){
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("controller_mc",1);
controller_mc.onEnterFrame=function(){
_root.gotoAndStop(_root._currentframe+3);

And here is my sorry try at it in AS3:
forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN , playMovie);{
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("controller_mc",1);
} controller_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DO WN, playMovie);
_root.gotoAndStop(_root._currentframe+3); {

i would like to know if it is possible to have a letter that is made up of multiple colors. for example above you will see a hebrew letter. the DOT underneath it is actually part of the letter, but it is a different color.is it possible to have this same functionality in flash? what i would need to do is upload an XML file with all the words, and i would need all the dots below the letters to be a different color

i wrote this code:

import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;

and it works, once clicked, it does what it has to do. Ofcourse, me trying to break it, i found that if i click the buttons fast, it will re-import the external swfs causing me to have multiple instances of the external swf.so in short, if i click like normal(slow ) ie like a person that clicked to view a section etc, then its fine, if i click fast or repeated clicking ie like a person that double clicks etc, then the problem occurs.
