I have been building my website using a simple mouse event click system that makes movie clips play at specifically names keyframes. it took me a bit, but I got it right and the code was simple. here is an example of the code that works: films.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, btnOver1); function btnOver1(event:MouseEvent):void{ sketch_5.gotoAndPlay("f_over"); }
Pretty simple stuff. but now I am working on a paid project for someone, and it is a bit more complicated in scope, but essentially I would be using the same code over and over again. it's a glorified slide show. but I ran into a problem. I used this code, which is the same (with different names and mouse event) as the one above. mcLifeLED.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Light_Type); Function Light_Type(event.MouseEvent):void{ mlights.gotoAndPlay("p_life"); }
Its telling me that "Function Light_Type(event.MouseEvent):void" is wrong with this message "1071: Syntax error: expected a definition keyword (such as function) after attribute Function, not Light_Type." I may be wrong, but from what I can read in it, it's telling me that the function I named about "Light_Type" can't be found...
I am getting a syntax error when I try execute the following code. The error is the following : 5006 An ActionScript file can not have more than one externally visible definition
i was building a simple menu shown on a tutorial entitled Drop Down Menu and Linking it: Flash Toturial. Im using Flash CS3 action script 3.0 and i recieve this error 1087 syntax error extra characters found after endo fo program.
1.) I have the following exact code for a button in a keyframe on the timeline (not in the button itself and of course excluding the quotes)
" on (release) { getURL ("www.yoursite.com", "_blank"); } " and I get the following error when I try and preview in Flash CS3 1087 : Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program.
2.) Also, I have another layer with a "stop" action taking place at the same time that this button occurrs, however, once I have the script in the keyframe for the button, it seems to override the stop action. So, basicly, IM looking to stop the movie and get this button to, once clicked, open a web address.
I am trying to learn flash and make forms with them. I keep getting this error... 1084: Syntax error: expecting leftperan before colon here is my code function sent:(e:Event):void why am I getting this error?
I searched the forums for the error, but the methods they used couldn't help my program, it's an Actionsctipt file in AS3 with CS4.
I am receiving error 1158: Syntax error: missing left brace ({) before the function body.Source: public function DirectBlock (e:Event) extends MovieClip :void{ //DirectBlock[code].....
A friend of mine gave me this template that she want me to edit (change color etc) but when I try to export it, it gives me this error 1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before 21431. (13 times - on every as file it loads from) 21431 = the name of the .fla file, also there's a folder called "21431_fla" where it loads a bunch of as files from. When I choose "Go to source" on one of the errors in the compiler it opens up a file (i.e. AboutPageContents_35.as) from the 21431_fla folder - and I guess the error comes from (and I did some searching on the web regarding this) it starting with the line;
ActionScript Code: package 21431_fla As I understand it reports the error because you can not load a package that starts with a number? I haven't change any code, so I'm curious how it could work before I edited the colors? And how do I fix it so it works I post a .zip file so you guys could check it out; [URL]
I want my navigation bar to open other pages in the same window. Currently, it's opening as if it's _blank (must be the defaut when nothing is coded).I thought I was coding correctly, but the error above popped up - so now I don't know what to do next.The code as it is with the error is as follows - the line with the error is highlighted in italics.
function goHome(event:MouseEvent):void { var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.fairwoodcommunitynews.com/Alphatest/Home.html", "_parent"); navigateToURL (targetURL); } homeBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goHome);
I'm just starting to learn AS3 and I'm trying to create a play button on a menu screen to start a game.I keep getting MMenu.as,Line20 1137:Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0. Every where I look the proper way to handle a dispatchEvent is as shown.
i found the error here what should i type in the constructor function between the braces to call the function to the main time line public function creation() {
//Handle game logic mcPlayer.update(); //create question mcMathQu.update();
the first "update" function of external as file works , but the instance i added in the 2nd external file, it gives me that error... (there is a 3rd one behind it which works too)
note: the code itself is an external as file of a fla file. (and i checked, everything is linked properly to their individual external as file.
this is the whole function code. (still doing in process.)
public function update(evt:Event) { //This is the game loop //Handle user input
I'm guessing I need to include something in the parentheses when I call .tweenx();, but I'm not too sure what?Here's the Tween Event function in the Ball class as well if it helps.
ActionScript Code: public function tweenX(event:TweenEvent):void { var randomXBoundary = (xBoundary[int(Math.random() * xBoundary.length)]);
This is my first attempt with AS3...now I am well aware of OOPs concepts and am comfortable with programming, but I am not able to wrap my head around the whole connecting the classes to the display objects on screen thing [linkages and class names n all]..now I managed to fix most errors in my file, which has cbIntro as the base class [set up successfully]...now cbIntro extends MovieClip as it links to an external fla [cbFlash]...but within cbFLash I am calling the following...
I'm working on this website and I'm dispatching an event from the document class to another class that is suppose to bring and handle a form when the user asks for it. The thing is that the event gets dispatched and everything but for some reason if I leave the the form Movieclip on the stage i get this error "ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on FormClass(). Expected 1, got 0."ime.
I'm trying to send an event between a loaded swf and the swf its loaded into but I'm getting the following error.
ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on one/eventResponse(). Expected 0, got 1. at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction() at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent() at two/test()
I don't understand where this extra argument is coming from. The code is below:
I've just found this ActionScript and tried it out in my Flash MX file. However, when I preview the movie, it comes up with 2 errors - either for unexpected } or expected {.[code]...
I'm pretty new to Flash and my first project is my own on-line portfolio. I found (what I think is a Flash 5) code on this board to create an infinite menu. I'm trying to tweak it so that it works in AS 2.0 for CS3 and I keep getting a syntax error. [code]...
i'm trying to use QuikBox 2D classes.i extracted these classes in my flash folder ,, but when i try to import [url]....it gives error that this definition cannot be found !!So how could i use this classes
