ActionScript 3.0 :: Default Stop To Play MovieClip With Typewriter Effect
Feb 22, 2010
I'm completely new to AS3. Being completely new to actionscripting I found a tutorial on how to create a typewriter effect, which I have successfully made into a movie clip. My problem is that I want to stop the movie for the typewritten text to appear and make the movie pause for a pre-defined number of seconds and hereafter continue to the next scene or frame or whatever is the most easy. The link for the file text.flv: [URL]

check out: [URL] The typewriter effect here is very fast, much faster than when I use onenterframe to produce the effect. Does anyone know how this is done?

I know there are a lot of different typewriter effects but none of them show how to go to another frame after the message has been typed. In other words, I'm using a script I found to simultate a message being typed out. That script action is on a single frame and stopped. What I would like help with is what to do after that message has been typed out and it should then go to another frame label.

We are using default CS5 skins with an flvplayback component built through action script 3. When playing certain videos (and only certain videos, however there isn't yet a pattern), the play/pause, stop & seek buttons are completely unresponsive. They don't change stats on hover & they are unclickable.However, the fullscreen button does always work, and upon going fullscreen and coming back out, the buttons now work again. So far, the problem was seemingly at its worst displaying a video that was encoded with Sorenson spark (an older codec) and we wondered if it had to do with the file itself, the headers, anything of that sort. But the fact that the skin and buttons work fine once entering and exiting fullscreen - that is perplexing.

I'd like the words in the string to type out in the allotted time, but for some reason my function appends the first and last letter of anything in the string, so "Hello?" becomes "ello." This is not affected if I pad the text in the string with spaces, i.e. " Hello? " Nor does this work if I start count i at -1, not 0.
import flash.utils.Timer;import flash.events.TimerEvent;
var str:String = "Hello?";
var i:int = -1;var delay:int = 720%str.length;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(delay);
timer.start();
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,gotime);
function gotime(e:TimerEvent){
textbox_txt.appendText(str.charAt(i));i++;
if (i>=str.length){timer.stop();}}

For the typewriter effect, I'm trying to add a typewriter "click" sound every time this function (within a class) writes a letter:
private function setLetter(n:Number) {
var correctLetter:String = text.charAt(n); var part1:String = text.substr(0, n); temp_text = part1 + correctLetter + cursor;

I have a movieclip within the "over" section of my button, which contains both an roll over and a roll out animation. My problem is that I cant seem to get flash to play the rollOut animation.
I placed the following code in the button itself
on (rollOut) { this.start_mc.gotoAndPlay("mouseOut");}
I tried setting up a function to find when the user rolls off the button but it didn't work either.

btn.onRelease = function () {
roller.stop();
}}

1- I imported an flv video file with "file->import->import video" and then put the object on the stage on a precise frame ( 71 and 79 ). Around the object player I created a transparent button as wide as the stage (67-82) which clicked brings you to another frame(2).The problem is that this work is a site and if you click on the transparent button you see a frame with contents but the movieclip playing is still on and user still ear the music and experience the bandwidth slow down. What I want to do is something like: movieclipinstancename.stop(); to stop the movie playing.
2- I'm triyng to understand the best way to import or use a movieclip, using AS3.

I have a nested movie clip (image sequence) that I use the code snippet from Flash CS5 to GoToAndPlay. The Movie Clip loops continuously. How do I get it to play once and stop. I've tried the snippet for GoToAndStop, I've tried stop(); in my 'Actions' layer. I've tried a stop(); in the last frame of my nested sequence. I've tried a stop at the end of the function but nothing stops the darn thing. It keeps going and going and going.
Here is my typical code that loops....
stop();
btn3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, cd_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame);
function cd_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(1); }
btn4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ef_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame);
function ef_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(10); }
There are two(2) buttons on the page, basically and back and forward button, and the image sequence is nested in a movie clip in this case at frame (1) and another nested movieclip at frame (10). How can I make it play once and stop on the last frame of the nested clip?

I have a movie clip that loads variables from an XML file. One of those variables is a number between 1 and 100. I have an movie clip file of a "speedometer" that has a needle. The needle is set with a motion tween between frame #1 and frame #100. The number in the XML file is, currently, set to "gotoAndStop" to the corresponding frame # in the speedometer movie clip. What I want to do is for the speedometer to "play" and THEN stop at the frame # that corresponds to what the XML is feeding it. All of this happens "on load". There is no "button" that activates it.
Here's the code I have for the parsing the XML into the speedometer. This is working. I just want it to "play" then "stop".
Code:
var SideGRAPH_01_01:XMLList=contentINPUT_01.StudentRptItemDetailDefinitions.StudentRptItemDetailDefinition.(@StudentRptItemDetailID=="5").(@Seq=="1").attribute("Value");
for each (var GRAPHElement_01_01:XML in SideGRAPH_01_01) {
MovieClip(root).page_01.dashboard.speedometer.gotoAndStop(GRAPHElement_01_01);
}

I'm using Flash CS4 with AS3. I'm building a website for a friend the problem I have. When a user clicks on a button I want it to play a movie clip then stop at a specfic frame. I want all the buttons to play the same movieclip but go to a different frame.
The current actionscript I am using is located on frame 1 is:
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, homebuttonClicked);
function homebuttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop(0)
}about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutbuttonClicked);
function aboutbuttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("aboutme")
[Code] .....
This allows me to navigate to the right frame but does not play for obvious reasons, if I use the gotoAndPlay function its carries on playing to the end of the movie.

I am currently in the middle of making a "sniping" flash game. In the first level there are a series of moving targets which are also movie clips. Inside the movie clip there is a 7 frame animation of the target exploding. Inside that is a tween of the target moving up and down. And inside that there is a plain old button.
What I want to happen is when you click on the moving target it explodes and brings you to a new frame of the main timeline. (ex. Main Timeline frame #27) But I'm pretty sure it thinks I was to play the seven frame animation of it exploding and then go to frame 27 inside the movie clip, rather then frame 27 on the main timeline.
Here's what my AS looks like on the target (ActionScript 2.0 is what I'm using.)
on (press) {
play();
}
on (release){
gotoAndStop(27)}
So how do I make it explode and then take me to frame 27 on the main timeline?

I am building a flash interface and I would like a menu where it is hidden to begin with (just a tab). You click the tab to expand it, and click again to collapse it. I've made a movieclip with animation of the menu opening up and closing, but I can't seem to work out how I'd go about making the movieclip open and close properly.
