source for stopping all action within a .swf? for instance, when one item is clicked, everything fades and stops and a message appears: "click to resume". i've seen a few sites like this, where this action occurs.
View 2 RepliesI'm making a scroller that uses the keyboard for scrolling. For it I'm using the code:
ActionScript Code:
switch (String.fromCharCode(Key.getAscii())) {
case "r" :
up_btn.onPress();
[Code].....
As of right now, it will start scrolling when you press the r key, but it won't stop. I need a command once the key is released to stop the interval.
I want it to while still easing into place like the iphone does. For example my stage is 550px. The drag and throw MC is 1650. That's 550x3. If the first image is showing starting at x axis 0 and you drag to the left it will ease into place stopping and showing the second image stopping the image at x axis 0. And the same thing scrolling to the next one and scrolling back. So the code is below and I've attached the movie that I'm working on.

flash pro. as 3.0.animation . almost no codes except ends of scenes having :
import flash.media.SoundMixer;
if(SoundMixer.areSoundsInaccessible() == false)
{
SoundMixer.stopAll();
}

i got this scene, with this specific bgm , individual frame layer. and the sounds at another layer. what i want is to stop the sound without stopping the bgm . (yes, i know the above code wouldn't work as it stops all sounds)
I am making a character walk. This code will make him wobble to the right and when thats done it will trigger him to wobble to the left and then call the function again to continue the loop.I can get the loop to work fine by calling the function but how do I STOP the function? Also I want to call it later on. Is there a way to start and stop a function?
function wobble()
{
var ws = .1;
var dis = 1;

Code:
_root.navigationMC.onPress = function() {
startPreload("blue.swf");
}
If I wanted to change an action from a button click to a frame-based action, what do I use instead of onPress? The hints from the AS editor are all click-based.
I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}
There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}
Everything I have attempted is not working.
I just want to make a simple button action using actionscript 2 but I can't get it to work! I'm sorry for even asking but I've been at this for too long now for it to not work I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 and I do the following --
File -> New Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)
Insert -> New Symbol
Name - test
Type - button
Export for ActionScript
Identifier - test
And then draw it in using the keyframes and add the code to 'Actions - Button' for my button
Code:
on(release) {
trace("trace");
}
I click on the button and it animates but no action event in the trace?
How can I get an action to follow another action when a button is clicked? When a button is clicked, I want the timeline to go to a certain frame and play and when it's done playing, to go to another frame and play. I basically want two actions in one function.

i want to do this:
on (release) {
_root.nextMovie = "externalmovie.swf";
_root.cover.gotoAndPlay("close");

I am using code from a tutorial that I downloaded to get an Home.swf to preload in my "index" page.the problem is that a part of the code reads
movie1_btn.onPress=function(){
startPreload ("Home.swf");
}
which means that I have to create a button to get the .swf file to load, how do I edit this code so that the action begins on it's own at that frame?
Can somebody change this code from action script 1 to a action script 2 because it doesn't work on new flash 8

I couldn't come up with a good title for this question but basically the problem is this - I've got a series of thumbnails and clicking on a thumbnail loads a larger picture into a holder movieclip on the main stage. However, if you click another thumbnail while the first picture is still loading, then both pictures load and it goes on from there. How can I make my code so that clicking a new thumbnail cancels any actions from previous clicks?

View 3 RepliesBasicly its simply a world map with a character in the middle. You move around with the arrow keyes (in reality you move the map around and the character stays in the middle) and at certain impact you walk into houses etc etc. To accomplish this i have a movie clip in the middle named "man" and a map movie clip beneath it with the following code:
[Code]...
So far so good and no problems. This is what i need help with: I can't seem to get the "main" map to stop moving at certain points when it impacts the "man". In essence there are lakes and mountains that the character cannot cross when when he hits these i want the speed X to be 0 so to say. Im uploading my example here. It's when the movieclip in the root named "man" hits the purple line in the map movieclip its speed should go 0. Ive tried around with hittests (the code is still in the code) but i can't get it to work.
I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 on Mac (windows i'm sure i can figure out how to fix it on the mac version)I'm trying to sync some animation to sound, and my sound is all in one big file. I'm wanting to go through frame by frame and tweak it (Yes, it's a frame by frame animation, no tweening here don't ask why, it's just not), anyways, I keep trying to use the "Control -> Play" button to keep playing the sound from the area I'm working on so I don't have to start at the beginning everytime. After I hear the section I want, I want to just push "stop" and everything stop, including the audio. It would stop everything before, but now it's not stopping the audio so it will just keep playing even though I had hit stop.?
View 1 RepliesI have a simple flash movie that contains multiple frames which make up the sections of a simple site. I have built the navigation so that when you click a button, the movie advances to the proper frame/section. So far so good.My problem is that when I get to the FAQ section of the site, the movie clip that makes up the faq answers plays to the second frame, not the first. The first frame of the movie clip has a stop action in the actionscript, as does the second. But no matter what I do, any time it loads, it quickly plays to Frame 2. I do have buttons that play different frames of this movie clip, but they are attached to mouse over events and nothing else.
View 2 RepliesI'm making a basic flash website, and have already created the site structure, but I'm having trouble adding FLV and SWF, as they aren't responding as I would like.
1) I have built a basic flash photo gallery, and it works great. I have exported the SWF, but when I add that to my main sites keyframe, it plays non stop, and the buttons on that embedded SWF don't work.
2) After adding a FLV video to a keyframe, it works as I would like. Except that when I click to another keyframe after starting the video, it keeps playing. How would I be able to pause/stop the video if a navigation button to other keyframes are clicked.
I have FLV files that continue playing when I leave the frame that they are on. I can stop the playing FLV by putting this code on the following frame:
if (demo.playing) { demo.stop();}
Where .demo is the name of the instance of the .flv component.
Here is the problem - I have many frames with many flvs, and when I tell flash to stop multiple FLVs, for instance:
if (demo.playing) { demo.stop();}
if (demo2.playing) { demo2.stop();}
I get this error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference
As far as I know, flash is telling me that since the instance of "demo2" has not started playing yet (ex. the user only went to the page with the "demo" flv, but not the "demo2" flv yet) that flash has no idea what demo2 is yet. I thought using a conditional statement would remedy this, but I suppose the .swf can't stop playing something it does not yet know exists.
Is there any way I can introduce all of the flv's at the beginning of the file, yet not have them play and not have flash "forget" about them so that I can stop them using the code above? Or is there a way to have the conditional statement not error in the event that the referenced instance has not yet been "introduced"?
I really wish they would have added an "exit frame" command in AS 3.0...
I can't seem to get around my video and audio files starting when I arrive at the page. I'm even using some example code with start and stop buttons. This is in CS4 Flash. I expect it's because the ActionScript is in the wrong place because when I run the movie it flashes through all of the pages on the site without stopping at the home page. Is there some generic code that will allow me to simply swap out the name of the video or audio file I want to start. If there is, do I need to locate it on its own layer at the top of the timeline?
View 6 RepliesI've encoded an flv with cuepoints. When I play the video, it freezes at the cuepoint. I'm useing as3 on windows 7. I've removed the metaData callback from the code below as the problem occurs with and without the callback.
nc = new NetConnection();nc.connect (null);ns = new NetStream(nc);
vid = new Video();vid.attachNetStream(ns);ns.play('names1680.flv');
I'm building a portfolio website and I'm using URLloaders to load new content.I want the user to be able to change the content they're loading before it completes. aka, stop the current load and load something else.
Adobe Actionscript 3.0 reference says I can use the following:"Use the unload() method to remove movies or images loaded with this method, or to cancel a load operation that is in progress."
Here's what I have (my attempt to stop the loader is in bold):
button_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, newPage);
function newPage(e:MouseEvent):void { loaderState=true; newDescription();
if (loading){
[code]....
I'm getting the following error on loader.unload(req); : "1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0."I've also tried just using loader.unload(); but it doesn't work - the url loader just continues to load and doesn't load the new content.
I am trying to get music to play continuously, it works, but everytime you click on a button, the song restarts on the new frame.The sound code is on frame 1, and is loaded from and external file.[code]...
View 17 RepliesI need to stop an flv movie when I click a button that is not on the control bar. e.g. I have three pages in flash and when I navigate from the videos page after starting the playback of the movie, the audio from the movie continues to play. I have no idea why this is.
View 5 RepliesI am having a problem manipulating a loaded swf. I would like it to load, play once and not continue until told to. have looked around the web and have gotten confused.I have been using a loader, but I have read that to controll a time line you need a movieclip(?)so I had created an empty mc, and placed the loader with the swf in the mc.

I'm trying to teach myself actionscript 3 and going insane over an issue with an .flv video that I can't stop.
The problem I'm having is that I can't make video (an .flv within the "FLVPlayback" component set as a movie clip) stop when navigating to another tab. Navigating away from and back to my video page/frame even results in 2 audio streams playing simultaneously. I think the problem lies with me not being able (or knowing how) to identify the video/movie clip with "(name)".stop();
Here's the source file (the first and last navigation tabs on the left are complete, video is on the last tab) SOURCE:

and my code (all my references to the FLVPlayer/video were wrong so I've removed them to try again) -
