function WebDesignBtnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
_parent:gotoAndStop("Web Design");
}
"Web Design" is the Frame Label which I want to refer too

I spent my holyday in studing new Flash 9, very good, powerfull but I doesn't find anymore my root, in teory is transformed in stage.root but it doesn't work.I want to understand if I make a mistake in my code or in my approach.I make a simple example with a few object containers.In the firsts lines of the constructor of the mail class I create the style class named tf and then the interface class called interf.Here is my class
Code:
package test {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import test.tf;[code]....
how to get the tf1 Object that as to be in stage.root.mytf.tf1 as some documentation say? If you doesn't comment that line you have an error. Obviously you can carry with you the object because is a small object with a few nidification but It seems to me very very bad for performance and code.

View 1 Repliesi have a loader.swf contains important functions and variables that loads 10 external swf-s (site compontents) in a container MC, those external swf-s also have some important functions and variables.my problem is that i don't know how to access the variables and functions declared in the main swf ( loader.swf ) from the loaded swf-s.so the hierarchy looks like:
Code: Select all
main swf ( loader.swf )

I have a movie clip that is a navigation window and I am trying to have some tooltip hover over the buttons inside the navigation window.
If I create a button on the main stage it hovers and works fine but if I create the same clip inside the embedded navigation window the tooltip does not show up. I do not have any error messages but it is not there that I can see.
I'm trying to catch a variable content (set on the main timeline) from a movie clip added to the stage. I need to set a condition with that variable, so here's my line :
Code: Select allif (MovieClip(root).screenMode == ("full"))

Code: Select alltrace(MovieClip(root)[screenMode]);
But this doesn't work too.
Is there any way to check the currentframe or totalframes of a movie loaded into a 'holder clip' on the main stage? Everything i try just comes back with 1 frame despite there being more than that?
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to make a flash website that has clickable buttons that will play different movie clips. But I dont know how to make it to just play the movie clip with the button you click without playing all the movie clips on the main timeline.
View 1 RepliesI have a very simple .fla. One frame, one button on the main stage. I have named the button and when I right click>actions, it says I can't put actions in this area. So then I put the Actions on the main timeline/keyframe. The code below works, but I can't get code to work in the button that I placed on the main stage. This button is dynamically placed by the first two lines of code.
Code:
var MyButton:ButtonOne = new ButtonOne();
MyButton.x = 100;
MyButton.y = 300;
addChild(MyButton);
MyButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,startMC);
function startMC(event:MouseEvent){
myMovieClip.gotoAndPlay(11);
}
If I try to just have the code that looks something like this..
Code:
ButtonOne.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMC);
//movie clip function startMC sits here..
I get an error saying the symbol doesn't exist.
I have a class that places objects on stage with addChild(obj) it allowes me to position objects using pixels( say obj.x = 10; obj.y= 50; ) just fine but if
I try this: obj.x = stage.stageWidth / 2; I get a message that I Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference
I have an object created visually. How should I refer to it from classes of other objects? MovieClip(this.root).someObj or stage.someObj or MovieClip(this.root).stage.someObj? And moreover, if I want to see which frame is current on the main timeline, why I cannot just check stage.currentFrame? Why there is no such property of the stage, currentFrame? It has timeline, right?

I'm in the process of designing this site as a portfolio for my art and am in the process of creating and laying out the galleries. My idea was to create movie clip animated buttons that would react to the roll over stuff. I got that part to work the way I wanted it. But now, I can't seem to figure out how to put a "Gotoandplay" type of code on the buttons so that the timeline would jump to the appropriate frame and play. (I put an "on(release) gotoandplay" on it the way I would put it on a button but it never responds. I have a couple of buttons that work fine with a "geturl". so I thought a "gotoandplay" would work fine. If this can be figured out in a way that I can easily use it for all buttons with just the frame number needing alteration, that would be best. After you click the splashpage door jpg, there will be a piece of paper on the floor. That is a button which should trigger the animation that starts at frame 114. When clicked, the page lifts up and spread open to two pages. But it never reacts

How to control button in movie clip in order to exit back to the main stage.
I used this code:
on(release){
_parent.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
The thing is: In the main page I have a manu you can choose to which movie clip to go. (The first frame on the main stage has a stop(); action in order to be able to choose). And the code bring me back to the main page but start the specific movie clip I exit from all over again. How can I stop this loop?
