[Code]....
My only issue now is that although the SWF plays when I test the movie, it doesn't play directly on the stage when I press the timeline's Play button. Is there a way I can get the SWF to play using the Play button? I'd prefer to see the SWF so I can add overlays.
How to I get the information from a package into the time line?[code]...

View 7 RepliesI'm working with AS3 and I have two questions. First, to save on having to re-do work, is there a way to simply play the timeline in reverse IE from frame 210 - 200? I've got a page set up to slide in from the right when clicked on, and if you click on the back button, I want the page to slide out to the right again. Figured the easiest way to do this would be to simply reverse the timeline. Just don't know if that's possible in flash.
Secondly I've got it set up in the timeline for a FLVPlayback component to slide in to the center of the stage from the right when its page is clicked on and though this works in the timeline, when I test the movie, it doesn't slide in and if I expand the preview to full screen, the flv and its controls are still on the right side of the stage. how to get the movie to slide in properly?
I would like to be able to skip some frames using functions. For example:
When you press a button created, the timeline jumps to (and plays) from frame 9 to 24 and then it immediately jumps to frame 110 and so on...
So. I would need a code for the "from - to" function. And the other question is about creating a function like that:
do this then do that then do that...
I have movie clips, animation, streaming voice over, and event music and sound fx on the timeline. I have tried the following example:
on (release) {stopAllSounds();
daveNight.stop();
stop();

I want to play the movie in the timeline, so i dont have to export the file every time i want to see the movie clip.
This is a school prosject so please respond quickly.
I have limited Flash experience in CS 3 and 4 but I got CS 5 and built an animated movie symbol and I tried everything I could think of but it would not play in the main timeline.To sum it up the animations and tweens work in the symbol but they do not appear in the main timeline.
View 1 RepliesI have a timeline with 100 frames. It is basically one long animation. I have keyframes on frames 1, 25, 50, and 75.I have 4 different buttons. If the user clicks one, it will go to a specific keyframe. For example, if somebody is on the frame 50 keyframe, and they click on the button that sends them to the keyframe on frame 25, instead of just jumping to frame 25, the animations plays from 50 all they way to the end of the timeline, starts over and stops at 25. ( The animation is a spinning wheel that always spins the same direction if that helps visualize)
They could click on any button, from wherever they are, and the animation will play to the specific keyframe.So, basically a script that says, "play until the playhead reaches a certain frame (or label) then stop. I obviously cannot use a simple 'play', and have a 'stop' at the frame I want, because where the animation needs to stop will always be different.
I remember in an older version of flash you could put a gotoAndPlay statement in the last frame of a sequence telling it to go back to the first frame in a sequence, but as I understand it you are not supposed to put script into frames anymore. So is there a way to tell a movie clip to play and repeat just part of its timeline (say a walking sequence) and then have it change to a different sequence later (such as jumping)?ed.
View 1 RepliesShort description what I wan'a do: 30 frame long movie clip (my_mc) and a button (button_btn). When button rollOvers the clip should play (how to do that I know ) and when on button RollOut the clip should play backwards from the same frame where it stopped.
View 1 RepliesTwo questions to which I cannot find the answers:
(1) I would like to be able to "grab" the current frame (as an integer) that the timeline is currently playing as the SWF plays and use it as a variable:Number. Is this possible? Alternately, it could be how many (milli)seconds the swf is into at a given point during playback. Is this possible? I'm trying to create a scrubbable SWF based on current frame that playhead is on relative to frame(1) and frame(last).
(2) Is it possible to have a timeline play in reverse? Example: swf plays until frame 25 where it is told to stop();, then depending on a condition, it either play();'s on to the next stop(); action or playReverse();'s (I know that this doesn't exist) back to the beginning of the SWF at the document's frame rate.
I'm not sure if this is possible or not, but could you use an AS to play the timeline backwards? Or play a MC backwards?
View 7 RepliesOkay, so I've got a happy little movie that shows an atom diagram. Every seven frames shows an electron popping up in the ring around the nucleus. This is all contained in a movie clip. I want a button that when pressed, tells the movie clip with the atom to advance the seven frames ( making an electron pop up ) and then stop. The same button if pressed again, will advance the movie clip an additional seven frames ( thus adding another electron ).
I've looked around quite a bit but haven't found a solution that will work for me. Also, I am working in AS2. (if you're feeling especially helpful, do you also know how to do the same but in reverse? I've found how to play movie clips in reverse, but not for a certain frame interval.)
direct me to a simple technote on how to play the timeline with a simple buttonexample:in AS2 you could attached script to button something like
on MouseEvent {
gotoandplay(6);
}

How to make one swf make another swf play on the timeline, both swf on the same page. I need it so when I rollover the first swf it begins to play the timeline but as soon as I roll over that swf, it causes another swf on the webpage to play its timeline as well.
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble with editing my flash template in flash cs4. When I try to play the fla file in the timeline it does not play everything in each layer.

View 1 RepliesI've created a movie clip with an animation on it's own timeline 30 frames long. When I press 'Enter' while inside the movieclip the animation plays ok.On the main timeline, I have one layer 30 frames long with the movieclip symbol placed on frame one. If I press 'Enter' the main timeline play head moves to frame 30 but the movieclip animation does not play on the stage. If I press 'Ctrl + Enter' or publish to swf then the animation plays ok but I can't setup the stage how I want it without the animation playing on the stage. Do I need to just change a viewing setting (tick box in preferences) or is this related to AS3 or new CS4 inner workings?

View 1 RepliesI have a series of sections in the timeline and I'd like to use gotoandplay. How do I begin playback of another section of the timeline. Is there a way to detect the end of gotoandplay?
For example: 3 objects and 6 frames.
Each object has a animate in frame and an opposite animate out frame. At each frame the user can pick any of the three objects but if an object is already animated in then is must first play it's 2nd animate out frame. I need to detect the end of an animate out sequence to begin the first frame of the selected object.
