ActionScript 3.0 :: Closing MovieClips Before Opening New One?

Oct 30, 2008

when you click on a button it opens a movie clip (the background drops down). Each section has a different background.I want to be able to close the movie clip before moving onto the next section, e.g the backgound goes back up again and the next background drops down. e.g If you click on "contact" you go into contact section (a background drops down), then when you click on "work" the bg from contact goes up (i created a label called "contact_out" which contains a movieclip of the bg going up) and then loads the "work" section.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Opening And Closing Doors?

Feb 28, 2012

Imagine a locker room that you can open and close the doors. I have the opening and closing working (one sample below) but I need to make it so that only one door can be open at any time. I had thought about using a boolean that switches between true and false within an if/else statement. If the boolean is false (no doors open) then the one clicked can open. As it opens it sets the boolean to true so no others can be opened. Trouble is to close it the way its set up right now you click it again and the movieclip's timeline continues and resets to the closed position. This is an issue because the opening of the door sets the boolean to true and I need a false value to click the button again and close the door.I'm building on top of a tutorial I've just run through so ignore the "response_mc" - although that's where I'd put a "Please close the open door first" line through the else function.

ActionScript Code:
// Door ActionScripting
mc_door1.buttonMode = true;
mc_door1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickDoor1);[code].........

there are a total of 15 doors which are all set up the same way (a 15 frame movie clip that has its button mode turned on). Is there a less intense way of coding it rather than doing the above 15 times? Finally diving into AS3 and getting it slowly (been married to previous versions for so long it was hard to force myself to change).

Professional :: Flash CS5 File Opening / Closing

Dec 10, 2010

This is a new, legal installation of Flash CS5 running on MacBook Air. Here are the file management problems I'm experiencing:
 
1) files are excrutiatingly slow to open, close, save, and switch between

2) I currently have a series of about 15 files open and I'm trying to close them - I click "don't save" but the files won't close - it's like I've clicked cancel. I have removed the external media these files were originally on, but if not trying to save the file, why can't Flash just close them and make them go away?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Closing Animations For MovieClips For Any Loaded SWF

Jun 17, 2009

I have code that loads an external .swf files into my main.swf. Each of the external .swf files has a close out button. When that button is clicked, it calls a function that supplies close out animations for the movie clips for any .swf that is loaded. All code is in main.swf. There is no code in the external.swf(s)

Each external .swf has it's own set of movie clips. The "closeCurrentSWF" function has animations for movie clips that are within .swf files that may not even be loaded, yet I get NO errors when this function is called...which is great!! I'm so stoked this works, why flash isn't throwing me an error...

Code:
//Load External SWF//
var _swfContainer:Loader = new Loader()
_swfContainer.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, finishedLoading);
stage.addChild(_swfContainer);
var _externalMovie:MovieClip;
function loadSWF(nameOfSWF:String){

ActionScript 2.0 :: Closing Swf From ExternalInterface?

Sep 3, 2008

[URL]..Above is a link to a component I'm working on. I've overlayed one swf with another swf which is going to display a sort of advertisement slide. What I'm trying to achieve is that when the adbanner (id="mediabanner") reads an xml file and reads "false", it then calls the ExternalInterface function "hideFlash" and in turn closes the swf so that the swf beneath it can be seen.

Could someone view the page source and let me know what I am doing wrong? The hideFlash function is being called, but its not actually hiding the swf.

This script is a LoadVars() script that sends info to php it does not need to receive anything, just send._root.onUnload does not seem trigger or the LoadVars script does not have enough time to run. I am not sure. Does anyone know how to get code to run if the user "x" out of the program?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Closing A Native Window

Jun 30, 2009

I'm trying to add an event listener to a window that pops up (to the whole window) that will close that window when clicked on. Basically it's your typical about window that would be found in any program by hitting help, then about this program. I am using no chrome on it so I'd like to just be able to click it and have it close.

On a less important note I'd like to center the window on the stage when it pops up. Right now I'm just using the x and w properties to get it close to center on my monitor but obviously that won't work for everyone. Below is the code I've tried. No luck whatsoever. Window pops up but stays up if I click it. Any help as always would be AMAZING!

AS2 :: Flash - Closing A Dropdown By Clicking Outside In App?

Apr 23, 2009

I'm maintaining a ActionScript 2 application which uses createEmptyMovieClip to create dropdown lists (the list items being attached as movieclips). I can close the dropdown directly via removeMovieClip and such, obviously.

My problem is this: the dropdown should not only be closed when an item is clicked or the button creating it is triggered again, but also anytime the user clicks anywhere outside the dropdown (like onReleaseOutside, except the click also STARTS outside).

So far the only solution I can see is turning _root (or an invisible layer) into a button by proving an onRelease for it, but that's hackish in that it makes _root be treated like a button by Flash (pointer mouse cursor and all that). Do not want!

I think my original post on this was lost following from the hacking of the site, so I'll try again.

Hopefully someone out there will have an idea where I am going wrong with this: I am currently trying to close browser window that a flash movie is running. Due to the fact that the browser window is not a popup "child", using the normal "self.close()" or "window.close()" brings up the IE7+ prompt of "This page is trying to close this the window" when it is executed.

I don't explicitly call the method xmlSocket.close() and a user is saying that when you close the app from the web browser the socket doesn't close properly and lingers for some time.

In my code I don't call xmlSocket.close() because the flash documentation says that as soon as you close flashplayer or the web browser the socket connection is automatically terminated.
