View 1 Repliesi am completely new to the whole aspect of flash and dreamweaver etc. and have recently been given a project of editing an interactive CD rom which was produced for a client by an outside company.
I have managed to grab the basics of changing the text and the images and stuff, but when i export it as a .swf flash movie, when i view the cd, all of the slides come on in very quick succession,it is supposed to be the first slide and then you click on a "next" button for each other slide,i know i've messed with the interactive elements somehow but i don't know how, or how to fix them as i haven't got a clue about the interactive aspects to flash.
I'm working on a project that involves making a globe in flash which will have many particular points (all the worlds major cities by using their longitudes and latitudes). It's all 2D made to look 3D.To make the "Sphere," I put together some code that stacks a bunch of ovals that creates the illusion of space, ala the code below...
//AS3
function magicTrigFunctionX (pointRatio){
return Math.cos(pointRatio*2*Math.PI);
}
[code]....
Now, my problem is that in order to assign the longitude and latitude information I need to be able to address each oval individually (not only which one, but also eventually the angle/radians of each oval for the latitude) and I've run into a snag...I don't know how or perhaps exactly what to do, because I know how to make it a symbol and class if the object was already made visually using the oval tool in the tool bar, but I can't figure out (after taking a bit of time looking up on how to use arrays and classes) how to do it in the AS3 code where I actually made the "sphere."
Can flv files be different and kinda awkward, if their produced in older or newer version of flash video encoder? Or anyoher software programs that can convert to the flv format? If so, have any of you folks come across an easy way to fix?

My three navigation buttons on my website ('but1', 'but2', 'but3') are programmed to go to each section on my timeline: 'home', 'pics' and 'contact'. However, whenever I click on my homepage button (but1), it doesn't do anything. The other ones are fine but it's just the home button that doesn't seem to link anywhere. My code is below,

I have a button symbol in the Library that I want to use *later* in the movie (i.e. not on frame 1!). When I get to frame 50 in my movie I want to stop the timeline and have the button appear at that point but not before. At the moment there is nothing else in my movie apart from an instance of the button named 'button01' placed at frame 50 on its own layer, a stop action on the timeline at frame 50 and the following code on frame 1[code]...
Is there something I must do to instantiate the button before I can use it later in the movie? I don't want to have to put it on the stage at frame 1 and make it alpha=0 as I saw suggested somewhere else I'd like the button to appear only when I need it.
I'm testing buttons and making them navigate to different scenes for one of my teachers who wants to start building websites in one of his classes.
But anyways,
My problem is this; "1021: Duplicate function definition.
Is it because I used the same code (but different instance names) to navigate from scene to scene?
I am getting these error codes-
Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class.

Using the code below I get an error message 1013: The private attribute may be used only on class property definitions.
View 4 RepliesWhat I'm looking to do is create a banner that transitions between different photos while there are small square buttons on the side that when the user clicks on them, it jumps to the corrosponding frame where a new photo begins showing. I've seen it a bunch of times on other websites.After following the advice found here: http:[url]....Everything was going well until I hit a snag. When trying to preview my movie I got the following error:1021: Duplicate function definition
Now, I know there is a very obvious error here in my button scripts, but as I said, I have no idea what I'm doing. Can someone look at my code and tell me what's wrong and what I should change? I'll post all five scripts.The instance names by the way are "sidebutton1" thru "sidebutton5" if that's any help.Here's my codes for each of the five buttons (one of these code bits per button)
sidebutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f);
function f(e:Event):void{

I have 3 images that are displayed sequentially. Image 1: layer 1 (frame 1 to frame 24), Image 2: layer 2 (frame 25 to 49), Image 3: layer 3 (frame 50 to 74). The opacity of each image changes in its frames and and each image has a classic tween associated with it. Pretty basic stuff.
On frame 1 of the first image I created a symbol that is a button, lets call it image1_btn. On frame 50 of the third image I created a second button, lets call it image3_btn.I created an Actions layer as the first layer and wrote the following code:
image1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onimage1Click);var image1link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://purplerosehome.com/shopping/spartina_449/page_1.aspx")function onimage1Click(event:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(image1link);}
image2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onimage2Click);var image2link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://purplerosehome.com/shopping/le_cadeaux/page_1.aspx")function onimage2Click(event:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(image2link);}

Hi, whenever I click on my code snippets button in Flash Pro, the output panel gives me a message about a missing bracket at the end of an argument list. In addition, none of the code snippets work. How might I correct it?
View 1 RepliesI have 2 buttons in my AS3 project that load .mp3 files and then play them. I have 2 buttons that switch between those files that aren't working. I get an error saying:

My buttons work fine in the main time line, but I need to place them in frame 1 of a mc_pages, I get an error about it saying "the statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler". And I just can't figure out how to do that to save my life. If pc's were cheap their would be a pile of them outside on the curb. I'm thinking I need to split up this action and place some on frame 1 of the main time line and keep some for for my button on frame 1 of pages, but what part? how?
My button loads a new swf in the mc placeholder.
btn01.onRelease = function () {
// let's first unload the current movie, to refresh the cache
(placeholder.unloadMovie());
// SETUP THE MAIN VIDEO PLAYER
autoPlay = "true"; //
autoLoop = "false"; //

I 'm working on my site and I 'm struggling to get to buttons working. It is basically very simple:

i have a movie clip (mc_1) inside of this movieclip i made
-one button ("start") : by its event Roll_Over the animation (of mc_1) starts
-ten menu buttons (b_1,b_2,b_3,....,b_10) : at first they're not on the stage, but they appear one by one,frames by frames, after I rolled over "start".
-one invisible button (inv_btn): placed right under the area occupied by those previous buttons..by its RollOut event i make the menu rewind so the ten buttons disappera one after one other.
now i have to put the menu buttons inside an array (cause i made a script for dynamic loading images from XML) but i receive #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. this is why i put in the array buttons that at first doesn't even exist...and when the menu closes disappear again..how can I handle the situation?
//this is the array code i put in the first frame of mc_1.
var bottone:Array = new Array(b_1,b_2,b_3,b_4,b_5,b_6,b_7,b_8,b_9);
for(var i=0;i<bottone.length; i++) {
var but_var:MovieClip = MovieClip(bottone[i])
but_var.buttonMode = true;
but_var.id = i;
I am working on a website and I have my buttons within a MC and they are revealed when you rollover the MC.All buttons are independent buttons from my library and they each have unique instance names.

hey im trying to make a mp3 player and when u click on a play btn it plays that song. but i keep getting this output error "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error.

this is my code
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;

var loadsnd:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("s1.mp3");

I have a class that creates a navBar with some buttons. Each button loads an external .swf and everything is working just fine BUT the code is really awkward. I also wanted to use TweenLite to add transitions from section to section.I also wanted to handle the "section change" process from yet another Class (SectionChange) but whenever I try it I fail miserably. Here's what I have (including the vars), without the SectionChange Class, that's working.
private var _app:Sprite;
private var _navData:Array;
private var _loader:LoadDisplayObject;[code]....
I don't know what I'm doing wrong here but I get tons of errors with this code.
edit: Now that I'm adding the _sectionChange to the display list I only get the following error: TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
I'm trying to load different XML content with buttons. Basically all i'm able to do right now is have the XML load when I test the movie. Outside of that I haven't been able to get my script correct to call up the XML when a button is clicked.Here's the code i've been trying:
var content_req: URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.kirupa.com/net/files/sampleXML.xml");
var content_ldr: URLLoader = new URLLoader (content_req);
content_ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);[code]....
So this is wrong because when i export my movie and click on the button I get this message:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null. at flash.text::TextField/set text()
at dynamicText_fla::MainTimeline/getnewText()
Also, when the XML does load into the text field, I'm getting the entirety of the XML document, not just the bits of information that I want. It wasn't doing this before when I would just export the movie and the XML information would come up in the output panel.
