I'm new to action script and was wondering how to change the alpha of a movieclip from 0 to 100% gradually or instantly when the mouse is moved ( like the navigation bar on a media player) when the mouse is still i want the alpha to be at 0, i am totally new to actionscript but am familiar with code syntax.
View 2 RepliesI can't seem to find the correct as3 code to change a movie clip's alpha.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to get in the habit of using AS in the first frame on the main timeline as much as possible. but sometimes i hit a snag. like getting a movie clip to change it's alpha when it hits a certain frame in an attached MC.
View 8 RepliesI was thinking that it will be an easy task but something is not right. Here is what I am trying to do. I want to be able to run a function if the mouse is moved over certain areas of the movie clip on stage. Based on which area of the movie clip the mouse is moved I'd like to be able to trigger different behaviour. Below is the code which I was thinking shoud do it:
Code:
var posY:Number;
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() {
[Code].....
For some reason, the trace statement is ran always when the mouse moves regardless if it is over the movie clip or not. It also only shows the first trace statement. It is never chaged even if the mouse is in the different areas of the movie clip.

I want to reduce the alpha of a movie clip when mouse is rollOver the movie , the alpha will be continuously reducing over frames, i dont want to use tween.
[Code]...
i this code when i rollOver the mouse on a movie clip, it shows the alpha reducing over time , and at roll out alpha increases over time. but if i rollOver and rollOut in fractions of seconds , it flickers (like 60-100 instead of from the current alpha lvl), So i am looking for some code that can help me in fixing this problem.
The thing should work like this: theres a movie clip in frame 10 of the timeline with two buttons inside, by clicking one of them the movie should jump to frame 15 and take the alpha of two Mc there (they are inside a different movie clip) to 0. This is what ie been trying (code on the button, btw):
on (release) {
McScene2.lettuce._alpha = 0;
McScene2.pumpkin._alpha = 0;

I'm having trouble getting my movieclips to have trails that fade behind it. I'm having the dupilcate movieclips delete themselves once their alpha reaches a certain point. what's wrong with my code? I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the counters. You can view my fla here: [URL]

View 5 RepliesI (like many othes probably) am using a master flash movie (AS2) with a menu that loads external swf files into a container. It is working pretty well, but I'm running into a pretty nasty problem.
This particular external swf that I am loading has a menu made of images that scroll depending on the mouseposition. It is very similar to this: [URL]
Now, when running the swf on its own (not inside the master movie) it works 100%. BUT... seeing as I am going to load this into a master movie that is bigger (about 300px of menus to the left) I get problems with the positioning. I don't really know what the cause is but the imagemenu seems to think it has a bigger stage now and the images seem to fall behind my master-menu.
I have to find a way to restrict either the positioning of the images, or the mousemovement.
I tried fixing this by adding a square, the exact size of the external swf's dimensions. hit_mc
Code:
hit_mc.onMouseMove = function() {
if (!hit_mc.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true) || w<=hit_mc._width) {
return;

I have a button and when this button is clicked, I want it to make a box which is a movie clip to ease alpha out.

how to increase the alpha of a movie clip when you rollover a button.
View 1 Replieswould like to know the AS code for getting a movieclip object to move to a specific x,y position on stage and change its alpha at the same time... would be nice if the movement was done with a nice tweening also.
View 3 RepliesWhen a movie clip is clicked on, another movie clip will fade out.The problem is that the clip that needs to fade out just disapears in a second, is there a way to controll the speed.I read a lot of info about this for complicated setups, is there a simple fix for this.I was hoping I could just do this designR_mc._alpha = 0/4;But that does not work.HERE IS THE CODE
design_mc.onRelease = function()
{ designR_mc._alpha =0;
}

How can i change movie clips apha property slowly one by one in for each loop? I can't undestand what's wrong((( From XML data i create for each loop, where my MC creates. But i can't chang their alpha property slowly. When i'm trying

I can't seem to access the alpha property of a movie clip. I can change it's y x position but not the alpha....
This works great: loader2.lettercontainer.letter_mc1._y=50;
But this doesn't do anything: loader2.lettercontainer.letter_mc1._alpha=50;
The movieclip "letter_mc1" contains a createTextField with one letter in it. I'm completely lost why this isn't working....
I have 3 mc's that I have placed a tween on that fades them from 0% - 100% Alpha (simple fade-in effect). The animations are fine if I test the movie within Flash. However, after publishing, I lose all those tweens in my swf, and all I see are abrupt changes from 0% - 100% alpha. What could I be doing wrong?

View 5 RepliesI've been trying to find this topic on the internet for what seems like forever but haven't had any luck. What I'm trying to do is remove a child movie clip and have an alpha transition when it is removed.
What I have so far can be found at: [URL]
Basically what I'm trying to do is when the video player is closed, instead of simply disappearing, I want it to fade to an alpha value of zero
this is the code I have so far:
ActionScript Code:
stop ();
MC_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vimeo_embed);
function vimeo_embed (e:MouseEvent):void {
var OpenEmbedPlayer:Vimeo_MC_PU = new Vimeo_MC_PU();

how I can use the location of the mouse to control the alpha of a movie clip. I have 3 images that are the full stage width/height. One image will be in the background and does not need to be changed. However the other images I want to fade in when the mouse is moved from the middle to the left or the right. So I know I need to set a min and max value to be the range of the alpha, but I have never worked with mouse position before. I can't use the mouse over function like many tutorial's show due to images being full screen.

I have a gallery made of 3 layers : actions, buttons, and images. Fore every image i have a keyframe that plays a movie clip by fading from 0 alpha to 1. I made a new keyframe that has no image so the page doesnt display the big photo from the start just the thumbs(which are the buttons). What i want to do is that the big images to be dispalyed only while i hold the mouse button, and on release to go back to the first frame state (no image).
View 3 Replies1) In the attached file, I have a movie clip that quickly comes across the top of the screen (following a short distance). I want it to start out with 0 alpha and i want it to fade in to 100 alpha. However, I want to do this using Actionscript while I'm EASING the movie clip. I'm trying to NOT use the timeline and do automated tweens for this function. If I combine them, it compliles but the output gets all messed up.
2) The quality of the text shown as the movie clip is not the same as how it looks in FLASH. I jacked up the quality of the output to 100% and it's still the same. any reason why?
for example:
var mc:MovieClip=new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.beginFill(0x000000,0.5);
mc.graphics.drawRect(0,0,100,100);

I have a looping movie clip and want it to speed up when the mouse rolls over one of the ends. Is there and action script that will do this? Or a different way to get it done? I faked it by making two movies with different number of frames but when you load that movie it starts over and it looks stupid. I have the scrolling animation on the site but want to put that effect on it. Click the first box after the intro to see the animation at the bottom(line of trucks) http:[url].....

View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip to display a clock and a datagrid for showing my schedule. I want my flash to alarm with sound when the time from the clock match one time on the schedule. Here is my actionscript:
Code:
clock_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_root.timer[i]==_root.clock_mc.clock_txt.text.substr(0,5)) {
alertSound = new Sound(alertSoundMc);
[Code]....
As you can see, I use onEnterFrame to listen and check matching between time on clock and schedule but it will check all the time and when it alarmed it produced sound all the time while the time is matched. I would like my flash to alarm only one or few times.
