ActionScript 2.0 :: Stop Progressing Through Preloaded Frames Along A Timeline With A Slider?
Feb 16, 2005
if I can control volume by means of a slider , is there anything to stop me progressing through preloaded frames along a timeline with a slider? has anyone tried this? i am imagining giving the user control of a decaying image from beginning to end with the use of a slider? does this sound the wrong way of going about this? i am ok with actionscript but with this, i havent a clue where to begin!

my reverse button causes the timeline to ignore the stop() function on its keyframe and play backwards all the way to the start. Since it keeps trying to play the previous frame, it's frozen at frame 1.
Code:
stop()
// Reverse button //
var reverse:Boolean;
rev_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, down );
[Code].....

Okay, so I've got a happy little movie that shows an atom diagram. Every seven frames shows an electron popping up in the ring around the nucleus. This is all contained in a movie clip. I want a button that when pressed, tells the movie clip with the atom to advance the seven frames ( making an electron pop up ) and then stop. The same button if pressed again, will advance the movie clip an additional seven frames ( thus adding another electron ).
I've looked around quite a bit but haven't found a solution that will work for me. Also, I am working in AS2. (if you're feeling especially helpful, do you also know how to do the same but in reverse? I've found how to play movie clips in reverse, but not for a certain frame interval.)

I've been making the transition from AS2 to AS3 for the last week and am making progress. But I'm having a problem that hopefully someone can help me with. I'm using Flash CS5. I have a fairly simple Flash website I'm working on. I have sections on the timeline like Home, About, Photos, Media ... all set up using labels for each of those sections. Everything is working fine but when I go to my Media section where I have a video placed (using the flv component) I'm having a problem as follows:
The video auto plays fine when I go to the Media section but when I attempt to leave the section and go to another the sound of the video doesn't stop. It continues to play when I go to another section and if I go back to the section it starts again. The video is not there when I go to another section which is the part that's confusing me. In AS2 when I did this the video and the sound both stopped because you went to another section on the timeline. Why is the sound of the video not stopping in AS3?

I am currently in the middle of making a "sniping" flash game. In the first level there are a series of moving targets which are also movie clips. Inside the movie clip there is a 7 frame animation of the target exploding. Inside that is a tween of the target moving up and down. And inside that there is a plain old button.
What I want to happen is when you click on the moving target it explodes and brings you to a new frame of the main timeline. (ex. Main Timeline frame #27) But I'm pretty sure it thinks I was to play the seven frame animation of it exploding and then go to frame 27 inside the movie clip, rather then frame 27 on the main timeline.
Here's what my AS looks like on the target (ActionScript 2.0 is what I'm using.)
on (press) {
play();
}
on (release){
gotoAndStop(27)}
So how do I make it explode and then take me to frame 27 on the main timeline?

I am trying to set up a file with a sliderMC that would change frames in another mc when the user drags it left or right. So far I have:
var pos:MovieClip;
pos.onPress = function ():Void{
this.startDrag(true, -10, 0, 600, 0);
[code].....
but I am stumped as to how to code AS3 so that when the instance of
pos is between 0-150 to go to mc frame 1
when x equals 150-300 to go to mc frame 2
when x equals 300-450 to go to mc frame 3
when x equals 450-600 to go to mc frame 4
when x is greater than 600 to go to mc frame 5

I am working on a map that changes colors as called through a slider. Each color or map status is a differnt frame in a MovieClip. When I pull the slider back/forth really quickly, the frames get a little out of whack with the slider...

Is it possible to play and stop a number of frames later, without using stop() in the frames? Like when I click a button frame 20 will start playing and it stops 30 frames later, all defined by the actions of the button..

how many of you use scenes to get your projects done. I've been switching to a different scene for every new angle (I'm making a flash movie, drawing somewhat 3D perspective, and storyboarding it out like a movie.) I find it makes it easier to organize the timeline, and not take up as many frames per timeline. Are there any downfalls to this method? Because I'm early on in the production, and if there's going to be any problems down the road I'd like to know before I get too involved.

I am creating a timeline for a website and there is a slider located at the top of the page where the years are defined on a line. The slider should be able to be moved by the clicking on it with the mouse and dragging it thus moving the timeline information directly below it from right to leftIf ANYONE knows any codeing or how to accomplis this in Flash CS3 actionscript2; If I am able to log onto my tempsite soon... I will upload what I have so far and post it in a reply thread. I have created the pieces of this puzzle in flash just as a motion tween to show the concept that I am trying to create. When the slider moves right to a greater year, the timeline image pans left. Vice versa

I'm using Flex 3 VideoDisplay class for playing streaming video. When I drag the track slider(change the playheadTime) there are no preview frames even if that part of the video is already loaded.
Is there anything I can do to enable this feature (from the configuration of media server or in the Flex client)?

This time I'm attempting to make a timeline, that should control what frame of a movie clip on the root timeline is displayed. So relevant to where the user slides the slider bar, the appropriate information will be displayed inside that movie clip. Now I really have NO idea where to start the coding that will attempt to convert the slider's location on its on slider bar, to what frame is shown on that movieclip.

I have an animation of someone dancing, frame by frame over several frames, if I slide the timeline back and forth I can change the rhythm and speed he dances and make him dance in time to whatever is playing on the radio! I would like to make this sliding timeline an interactive element, so I want the viewer to be able to slide the position of the timeline for the dancing frames so they can make up there own routines, so they are essentially sliding through the different frames back and forth how they choose, can you point me in the direction of a tutorial for this type of thing or is this something you have done before? I guess what I am trying to achieve is similar to a rewind/fast forward slider?

Any code that will allow the timeline to be scrubbed through using a slider -- similar to that of a quicktime / Media player slider used in video / mp3 players.

what I have completed already is a slider button that can be clicked on and moved left and right and have inserted my movie into flash. What action script is needed to apply to the slider button so it can forward and reverse my flash movie.I could find any tutorials on this basic dynamic movie player effect.

I've been able to do most things by finding something similar and adapting, but this one is just not working for me and I know it's got to be easy. I'm working in Flash CS3 and actionscript 2.0 but willing to switch to actionscript 3.0 if it's easier. So this is what I'm trying to do: I've got 15 images on a single layer, keyframes 1-15. I want to build a slider bar that controls the movement from one image to the next. I tried doing the slider bars tutorial [URL] and I can do the tutorial correctly, but i can't figure out how to adapt it to scroll through the keyframes.
Also, for now there are 15 images but there could be as many as 72.
Do I need to put stops in each keyframe as well?

First, when you download attache file, make sure that file will be in same directory(c: emp). in file test.fla in frame 5 in layer snowing is movie clip, name mcPoly. Now, load testing.swf and hit the movie button. The movie(test.swf) is load, now push the play button and wait until the snowing come, then press the pause botton, and you will see that the snowing keep snow.My questions is, how to stop the snow, when the pause button is press, and when you move the slider, where the snow is starting, the snow has to rest until the play button is press.

I just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.

I am working on adding playback controls. So far, I've been able to achieve a working slider component that scrubs the external swf's timeline. However, it is faulty and the slider thumb doesn't follow move with the timeline of the swf-it just remains still. What I mean by faulty is that sometimes the slider scrubs the swf timeline and sometimes it fails with this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at swfPlayerMain/sliderDrag()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()

I have made a slider that I am having issues with. This slider is to control the timeline of a movie clip when dragged. My problem with this is that It seems to be duplicating the first frame. When I slide the slider to the right it will hit first tick and still display what is in frame 1 .. then on the next ticks it will continue with the rest of the timeline. how to prevent / over come my slider from doing this with the first frame?
