ActionScript 2.0 :: Timeline - Change The First Code To Go Ahead 24 Frames?
Nov 9, 2009
I have a movieclip in which I show pictures. Each picture was 1 frame long, so my button (mc) to go ahead to the next picture had the following script:
this.onRelease = function(){
_parent.nextFrame();
}
Now I've changed the timeline so that each picture is 24 frames long. By reading some posts I've found this code:
gotoAndStop(_currentframe+5);
Still I don't manage to go ahead 24 frames. Does anyone know how I can change the first code to go ahead 24 frames, or even better, to the next keyframe?

The button tells the playhead to jump to the next frame with this code:
on (press){nextFrame ();} Where can I put a "+ 2" in there to make it jump 3 frames ahead?

I am on the main stage. In a layer I create a button. I double click on this button to enter its layer. I then do some AS3 to say if the play button is pressed, to change to a pause button. How would I say "If the main timeline is finished, change to the play button"? I am trying

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.

As stupid as my question might sound, i have spent the last 2 weeks reading oop books; but could use some guidance. I have a flash project that is basically a supped up slide show. On the stage i have the following: main_mc (instance name = images_mc) = movieclip which holds "pictures" ui1 (instance name = ui1_mc) = user interface that allows user to draw on picture (when drawing is enabled) ui2 (instance name = ui2_mc) = activates invisible hit areas (buttons) on select pics, when hit area is clicked, we jump to another pic in the main_mc.
I accomplished all of this on the timeline, but am updating the code to OOP. I am having A HELL OF A TIME trying to figure out how to store references to the instances (images_mc etc..), so i can control them from varying class files. I have found it is easy to control the instances from the documentclass, but not from unrelated class files. Example: images_mc.stop(); works in document class; but ovieclip(Parent).images_mc.stop() doesn't seem to work from any class file.(ui2 class file for example);

Is there a way to make code on the timeline and code in a separate AS file communicate with each other?I have two buttons, a yes button and a no button.I have a confirm box which is a movie clip. In the movie clip I have the two buttons on it and code so that every time one of the buttons is clicked it runs a function.I have the rest of my code for the movie (so the code to make the confirm box appear) on a separate AS file.Is there a way I can define the functions on the movie clip and run the functions with the separate AS file?

I am looking for an actionscript that will go to a certain frame in the timeline, play several frames and then jump to another frame in the timeline. Basically, I want to use this on several different buttons that use the same animation sequence to get to another part of the timeline.
The following is a scenario, but not script:
Buttons A and B are on Frame 1. Animation is on Frames 2-20:
When Button A is pressed, go to Frame 2. Play Frames 2-20, then go to Frame 21.
When Button B is pressed, go to Frame 2. Play Frames 2-20, then go to Frame 22.
I am currently doing this in a different way.
Buttons A and B are on Frame 1. Animations for Buttons A and B are the same, but are located on different frames. Animations for Button A would be on Frames 2-20. Animations for Button B would be on Frames 21-39. So...
When Button A is pressed, go to Frame 2. Play Frames 2-20 and stop on Frame 20.
When Button B is pressed, go to Frame 21. Play frames 21-39 and stop on Frame 39.
Do I have to create this extra timeline? Can I just put the animation in a separate movie? How can I play the movie and then connect each button to different parts of the timeline after the movie ends?

I'm using Flash CS4 and I have to trim a .fla file down. I can delete the end frames no problem, but the first 600 frames that I have to remove are proving to be a nightmare. When I use the select>right-click>delete method it doesn't remove these frames, instead it removes the corresponding amount of frames from the end.

I have a bunch of movieclips in my library. Each one contains it's own class and functions etc.I put each of these movieclips on diffrent frames in my timeline.My question was, if I am going to put these movieclips, on 2 or 3 frames on my timeline what will be the impact on speed of application (in mobile afcourse).For example MovieClip2 will be put on frames 2,3 and 6.It has 300 lines of code. Is the impact noticable ?

I am having some trouble using Action script to access Instances on a timeline. Lets say that I have a MovieClip in my library that has three frames (frame number 1, 2 and 3) and each frame has sprite with the instance name IMAGE (each sprite is an instance of a different library object.) The MovieClip has the linkage name ThreeFrameClip. I can create an instance of this MovieClip like this:
Var MyClip:MovieClip = new ThreeFrameClip();
I now want to make all of the sprites invisible. How do I do this? Is there a way to access each frame using an array like this:
MyClip.frame[1].IMAGE.visible = false;
MyClip.frame[2].IMAGE.visible = false;
MyClip.frame[3].IMAGE.visible = false;
[Code].....
This kind of frame access had been a big problem for me in many different projects. I really do not like the second method.

I have imported a few animated GIF's in flash. Each has a whole lot of frames. I am running the FPS at 35, and it obviously means that the GIF frames will speed up/slow down depending on how fast the FPS is. That is great, but is there a nice little trick to spread the frames out, without having to edit the MC and highlight a bunch of frames, and spread them out? I also attached a screenshot of me highlighting all the frames, preparing to move them over by one to spread out the frames. The first few frames are spread out already as you can see

Is there a way to trigger a movie clip to go ahead one frame within it?I currently have a drag and drop interactivity where I want my drop target (which is a movie clip) to go ahead one frame within it everytime the right drag object is dropped on it. I would assume it is going to go under my if statement. Here is my current if statement to help:
if(event.currentTarget.hitTestObject(event.currentTarget._targetPiece) ) { event.currentTarget.x = 950; event.currentTarget.y = 100; event.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragMe); event.currentTarget.buttonMode = false; _ffBack ++; if (_ffBack == 12) { correct_txt.visible = true; } }

Basically the problem is that the flash player skips my frames for some reason!Problem: calling gotoAndPlay("label"), and once flash gets to that label, it does play, but it does not reach the trace action at the end of the timeline, although it reaches the end of the timeline and loops to the beginning as far as the visible artwork is concerned. There is no stop actions involved in between the gotoAndPlay and the trace action.If I reproduce this in a simpler environment I do not get the error. In the file I am using a few of my own simple external classes, and the as2 EventDispatcher, and caurina Tweener.

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 don't know if there is a setting but all I see for my timeline is my layer names. It appears that I can drag the bar from between the frames and the layer names but when I do the bar does not move to adjust and view the frames... has this happened to anyone else?
I don't know what is happening.... I can't even find a reset tools button that might just reset all the window panels to their original settings.

I am new to AS3 and was doing a little bit of research before diving in. I wish I could just create external swfs to load with each button, but the CMS system that I am uploading to won't allow it~ so I HAVE to make the thing into one swf, but the file size is too large. Is it possible to make a button that loads only a few frames within the timelime? and the next button will load another few? this is what i found and it says i can't:[URL]
