ActionScript 3.0 :: 2 Looped Animations - Image1 Should Slide In And Then Fade To Alpha=0?
Mar 23, 2010
I have a banner (160x600) and want to have 2 images (one at a time) slide into place and then fade out (alpha=0). Image1 should slide in and then fade to alpha=0, whiling fading out, Image2 should begin to slide in and then fade out as Image1 begins to slide in... this all needs to loop.
So this is the code I have which slides in the image and fades it out but I need for the fade out to overlap the next image sliding in and loop it all.
Code:
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
function finishHandler(event:TweenEvent):void[code]........
I'm creating an animated background/flash animation, in short I have several tweened pieces all moving/swinging around and I want them all to loop at the end of their individual loops. Each piece is on its own layer) I have been using gotoAndPlay(2); (I'm using a preloader so frame 2 is the start). The problem is (If I'm correct here) is the first layer to reach the end runs the "go to and play" resetting everything!. I want each layer to act independantly. Is there a different version of gotoAndPlay(2); that will work or am I looking at things like nested animations/importing individual fla's ect (all of which goes over my head).
Is it possible to alpha tween (or any tween) the end of an animation with the start?For example, here we have a simple animation that alpha tweens three images with looped playback (keyframes capitalized):
I have a tweened movie which plays on a loop. A click on the image area stops the movie and the image fades nicely from alpha 100 to alpha 0. A second click brings the image back immediately to alpha 100 and the clip continues. I would like the movie image to fade back in from alpha0 to alpha 100 before it re-starts; (the reverse of the fade out). At the moment the re-appearence of the image is a crude jump. So far my ill informed tinkering has not worked.
I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:
I've got a function 'onIntroFinished' which starts two tweens (musicPlayerIntro and fullResetBtnIntro). After each tween, an eventlistener is added to that particular tween to see when it's ended, so it can call on another function to start a new tween. The first tweens complete within the 'onIntroFinished' function....however, they don't go on to start the second tween in the 'musicPlayerIntro2' and 'fullResetBtnIntro2' functions? The trace statements are getting called for the second tween functions, so they're getting through to that point, but why aren't the tweens starting? Ocassionally when I test it, the second tweens half work, fading out to 50% alpha, but then stop and stay visible, rather than fully fading out. Is this necessarilly the best way to do a fade In/fade out alpha tween?
Sometimes in Flash, alpha transitions will just drop out without reason. They still appear in the preview mode, but when you export a swf it drops all tweened alpha animations. they become cuts instead. I've even tried opening the same file in CS4. Same dilemma.
I need to be able to assign html/css-formatted text to a textfield within a movieclip and then be able to alpha that movieclip and have the html enabled textfield alpha with it.currently i have:1. My textfield within my movieclip with html enabled (property inspector), the font set to Arial* (the font symbol linkage from my library) and NOT embedded2. Font symbols for Arial and Arial Bold with linkage (exported to first frame)3. seperate dynamic text fields off stage, one with arial embedded and one with arial bold embedded (they are set to the font symbol in the library).I was briefly able to get it working by embedding the font on the textfield within the movieclip, but then curiosity go the better of me as I wanted to see what made it work and deleted the separate text fields (offstage ones) and tested the movie (which seemd to make the text field unable to have my css formatting (using Arial AND Arial Bold in same textfield).
I know this question has been asked a thousand times already, but I simply can't get it to work. I've looked at various other threads posts, but none of them seem to work. Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a button (Instance name: "go") and a MC (instance name: "fader"). Now, I want the MC to fade in on rollOut and fade out on rollOut. Currently, I have this code: In frame 1 of my movie: (taken from this thread)
i want to make another mod to kirupa's xml gallery.i also noticed that on a mac when it is on the server, the image doesn't fade in unless it has already been viewed.i'm trying to make the images slide in from the right when the next button is clicked.it would be awesome if the previous one moved out of the way to the left as the next one slid in but i have no idea how to achieve that.
function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { xmlNode = this.firstChild;[code]....
I am new to Flash and am using Flash CS4. Can someone send me the code to make a top picture fade out to reveal a photo underneath when hovering with a mouse and then fade back in after you move the mouse?
I am using Flash 8 - trying to get started by simply fading in/out using Alpha. I totally get on the first layer converting image to movie, inserting key frame and motion tween, selecting clip and changing alphato 0%. Where I am absolutely lost - is when it comes the second, third, fourth and fifth image. I have tried inserting new layers and repeating the steps - but for some reason 2-5 images do not transition like image one.
Im using the following bit of code to advance through frames at a set interval. Each frame consists of a different quote (text) and while this works fine I want to add in a fade effect so that for the last second of the frame the alpha of the frame reduces from 100 to 0.Here is the timer code im using:stop();function goNext(){gotoAndPlay(2);clearInterval(timer);}var timer = setInterval(goNext, 10000);
I want to be able to fade to a colour, rather than alpha as I'm loading movies into a holder, when the alpha fade function is used it shows the surface beneath the holder and I don't want this to happen, so I tried to use a setRgb but it didn't work, how to fade to a colour not to opacity.
on button rollover, the button and title of the page fade in on button rollout, they both fade out on button release the MC fades in on new button release, the last MC fades out
so far i have the following code for button so that on the rollover state, the title loads in a text field:
[AS] on (rollover) { _root.x + 1; _root.caption.words = "shows";
[code]....
how and where to nest the rest of the actions into what i have so far.
I'm trying to place this scrollPane inside a movie so I can fade the text in.
//create text field - WORKS PERFECTLY this.createTextField("content_initial",getNextHigh estDepth(),280,140,217,350); content_initial.XML = true; content_initial.multiline = true;
What I'm trying to do is have an object go from 0% and fade to 100% when I move the mouse cursor over it.
For the life of me, I can't figure out the code to work this. I'm sure this is the easiest thing on the planet, but I've been working with AS for only about a week.
I've made the object a button symbol and given it an instance name of "btRed." I found the following code in the help file, but it isn't working.
function fadeBlock(event:MouseEvent):void { btRed.alpha = 1; btRed.addEventListener(MouseEvent.mouseOver, fadeBlock); }
I made the following AS tween that moves the MC from right to left. It should fade its alpha after the tween finishes. But it doesn't fade. Why not?[code]
What I'm trying to do is make a movie clip button that will fade from a certain alpha to a different alpha when I mouse over. Is this possible to do withing the transitionmanager fade effect? Or do I need to make separate movie clips for the fade in and fade out sequence for the button over and button out parts?
I have a picture on the stage that is coverd by 24 small squares (suare01, square02,. square24) The alpha property for all squares is50. I would like the squares randomly fade to alpha 0 (stay on alpha 0 for approx. 8 seconds) and then fade back to alpha 50 again, while another one fade to alpha 0
i think this is like the 5th time i'm asking this question, i'll ask it differently this time. I just want the button to fade out on rollover. at the same time, i would like text (that is loaded externally in a text field called "caption") to fade in also on rollover.
I had to make a simple slide show for a client and they wanted it done in flash. I am not very good in flash and am having a problem trying to get the first image and text to fade in once the user clicks on the category they want.
I want both the image and the text to fade out and have a new image and new text to fade in when the user clicks the next or previous button. I would also like it if I could have the text be timed so that it will fade in AFTER the image it goes with fades in.
Right now the slide show is really ugly, I will make it pretty once I have it built and working correctly, so don't judge the look...haha.
Anyway, here is the .swf file which is what it looks like now...my .fla file was too big to upload on here. I would post the code, but I have so much in different places that I don't know where to start as far as what you will need.
I can't see the swf file that I uploaded when I click on it.
I have a basic alpha motion fade which works using my flashplayer but not in flash players less than version 10 (no fade is present its just instantly there). If I change the player I am developing for in my movie settings the fade just does not work.
Im trying to have a small sized flv video that plays on top of another flv, the top one fades out. It technically works, but it randomly sometimes doesnt fully fade out. It would stop half way fading or just about gone but not quite or doesnt do it all.
75% of the time it works.Im wondering if flash balks at ram/processor usage and just quits fading, but cpu is only at 16 when it fades. Or if the tween class is buggy.
i'll ask it differently this time. I just want the button to fade out on rollover. at the same time, i would like text (that is loaded externally in a text field called "caption") to fade in also on rollover. i've tried sooooo many things - scavenging this board and others.
