I've got a couple elements I create in actionscript, and I want them only to be visible on Frame 1. I'd rather not have to remove and add them over and over as I got from screen to screen if at all possible. Here is what I have:
Code:
gameList = new List();
gameList.x = 505;
[code]......
Is there any way to get the top most UI element in a specific x,y location?
View 1 RepliesI'm having some problems getting a flash application (in AS3) to search for a specific element value inside a xml. I have the following xml file.
<clientlist><pessoa><id>0140</id>
<nome>Maria Manuela</nome>
<email>mariamanuela@gmail.com</email>
<contacto>969876543</contacto>

I have a "search" field where, supposedly, I would type a name and would get an array of "pessoa"s, but I am having some problems making the loop happen. So, imagine I would search for "Maria", I wanted to get a:
trace(PessoaArray[0]) =

I am wondering how to remove a specific element from a vector.[code]...
So from the code example above I was using Element.pop() but thats wrong -I think -as it removes the LAST element. I need to remove the element at the location of the match.

View 3 RepliesBasically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:

I'm trying to get the following movieclip smallbutton to link to frame 5 on movieclip cont.The way the timeline is built is as so:content_mc > cont > (more mcs) > smallbuttonThis seems to be an issue from every answer I've tried so far since the movieclip "cont" is not being called in the main timeline; first there's content_mc and then comes cont.How would I go about getting the movieclip "smallbutton" to link to the 5th frame of movieclip "cont"?This is for AS 2.0So far I'm at:on (release) { _root.gotoAndPlay("cont"); _root.smallbutton.gotoAndPlay(5);
View 7 Repliesif its possible, via AS3, to create a frame label in a movieclip on a specific frame.
Obviously I can do it by manually by setting up labels on the timeline within the target movieclip, but I would rather use an array so I can loop through it, creating a label name on a the specific frame each time?
so for example I would end up with:
myLabelOne on frame 10
myLabelTwo on frame 25
myLabelThree on frame 115
etc
I am loading a swf into an empty MC with this code:
on(release) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", _root.container);
}
what I want to do is also go to a specific frame or frame label in that loaded movie. I thought I could do it by adding something like this:
_root.containter.gotoAndPlay("frame");
Is there a way to get the frame label on a specific frame, without it being the current frame?
I've tried accessing it through:
this.scenes[0].labels but it doesn't allow me to check a specific point on the timeline.
How would I access the first element of this array first entering the frame. I want to get buttons[0], or brandingbtn, to be activated as of right now its not working.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a button that uses the Load Graphic Behavior for bringing a SWF, but i want the SWF to come in a specific frame instead than starting at frame 1. For examplel; i click the button, the behavior of Load Graphic brings my SWF to stage but i want to start at frame 50, not at frame 1. How can i do that?After i use the Load Graphic Behavior i try using a gotostop frame, but doesn't work.

I know that there is no such function as getElementByName in Flex but I also now that you can do this["object_id"] to get the element of the application u're in.What about getting an element inside another element?I've tried making element["id"] ? But in my try-catch it always runs the "catch" part..how do I get an element inside another element just having it's id in dynamically created string form?

I made a flash website and had one page load an external swf.
In this external .swf are thumbnails that link to another page (frame) all within the external swf. when you go to these pages there is a 'back' link which links back to the main external swf frame.
My problem is this: let's say i click a thumbnail in the external swf and it goes to the respective thumbnail page, and then i dont click the 'back' button but instead click another link of the main flash website - then i go back to the page that loads the external swf and instead of going to the main frame of the external swf it stays at the page i was previously on.
How do I get the link on the main flash website which loads the external .swf to always load on the first frame of the external swf?[code]...
I am very new to Flash and I am making a little 30 second clip just to fool around with Flash.Now at the end of my film I just want everything to stop (if possible, once a specific frame is hit move to another frame.)I've heard that you could use ActionScript to perform this but I really have no clue
View 5 RepliesI have the loading audio file at frame one. However, I want to play the audio only at specific frame or frame lable. How do I do that? Below are my codes:
[Code]...
The above plays the sound as soon as the .swf file is loaded. But I want to play at certain point in time, say frame number or frame lable.
I have two flash files, say a.swf and b.swf.a.swf is the main swf file, embedded in an HTML page for a webpage. There is a preloader in a.swf too. In b.swf, when I click a specific button I need to load a.swf, but not from the preloader, from the content. To be precise, the content starts from Frame 24 of a.swf (obviously Preloader ends in Frame 23). I believe, the frame 24 has to be loaded in a.swf when I click the button in b.swf.
View 2 RepliesI need to do 2 things: I have a rotator piece I'm working on where I need to be able to go to a specific named frame (promotions) if the XML I search for [URL] has the tag <promo>.

View 3 RepliesI have 3 pages of a document converted to symbols (i.e. mc_pg1, mc_pg2, mc_pg3), each residing in its own frame (i.e. "pg1", "pg2", "pg3") inside mc_Pages. Mc_pg1, mc_pg2, and mc_pg3 are inside a movieclip called mc_Pages. On click of mc_Pages, I am attaching a blinking icon (mc_Target) to a specific page. The problem I'm having is when I attach mc_Target to a specific mc in its frame, navigate to another frame, and then return to the initial frame, mc_Target is no longer attached. Yet, I have not clicked anywhere else other than the buttons that allow me to navigate from one frame to another. So, my code is:
mc_Pages.onPress = function():Void
{
if(varPg1 == true) //this checks to see if I'm on "pg1" frame where mc_pg1 is located
{
[code]....
Everything is working as it should, i.e. on press of the mouse button, the mc_Target is attached to the frame/mc within mc_Pages that I'm in (I have a btn_Next and btn_Previous on the same timeline as mc_Pages that navigates to the specific frames inside mc_Pages), except that upon returning to a frame/mc which previously had mc_Target attached, mc_Target is no longer there.
I've got another little hitch that I've come accross in the project that I'm currently assembling. From time to time I need to load swf files at specific frames & seem to have hit a brick wall.

View 1 RepliesI'm having a some trouble with loading an SWF into my main SWF. I have found multiple ways of doing it, but I want to find the most appropriate way for what I'm doing.
Here's what I'm doing:
I have a main SWF with 4 frames. I want to click two buttons that will then load two SWF into frame 2 and frame 3. Below is the script I wrote for the buttons. The earlywork_btn needs to load RColeman_EarlyWork.swf into frame 2. This swf is a slide show. The currentwork_btn needs to load RColemna_CurrentWork.swf into frame 3.
I'm not sure which scripts to use to load the SWF's and how to arrange it in the ActionScript panel.
ActionScript Code:
//
stop();
function onbiographybuttonClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
