ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect When A MovieClip Ends?
Aug 19, 2009
I'd like to remove a MovieClip instance from the main timeline (and do a few other things) once that movie is over.
Scenario: I've got a frog catching a fly with his tongue. Once the frog-tongue movie clip is over, I want to remove both the tongue, and the fly from the timeline. Both the tongue and the fly are MovieClip objects. The tongue animation starts based on a TimerEvent. I'd like to say something like: when the tongue MovieClip ends, call removeChild() on tongue and fly.[code]...

Project:
Reading text from XML document
Text scrolls up, pauses, then automatically scrolls up and off the screen
Text content changes to the next node.
Scene Level:
I have a movie clip named "symbol headline" (see attached screenshot)
Within the MovieClip:
I have 2 dynamic text boxes: headlineText and contentText (see attached screenshot)
ActionScript Code:
// Import flash libraries
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
[Code]....
The Problem:
Everything works GREAT except there is a slight difference between the TIMER in the ActionScript and the frames in the GUI. That means that after 3 or 4 iterations, the text starts changing before the motion tween is done.
My Idea:
Instead of using a timer in my ActionScript, can I create and Event Listener that listens for when the movie clip starts to replay? If so, HOW ?

I need to add several copies of a movieclip at random times. When each clip plays out I need it to be removed. What I'm trying is the following:
var list:Array = []
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
function(e:Event){[code]............
The first script is working but the last one is not. How should a movie clip instance remove itself?I'm used to AS2 where it just requires this.removeMovieClip(). I've tried to search for an equivalent in AS3 but can't find

I want to be able to know when a certain movieclip animation ends (Flash MX).For example: The players character shoots an arrow, while the arrow animation is on - the players character can't move when arrow animation ends - the players character is free to move again.
How do I do that?I've tried putting some AS in the last frame of the animation (letting the application know that animation has ended) but once in a while this AS doesn't execute - maybe Flash drops some frames (and that frame among them)?Do I have an event for movieclip ending (Flash MX)?Is the only way is to use timeouts (setInterval)?

So I have a quick movie clip and when that clip finished I want to do the following:
Code:
_root.logo_top.attachMovie("sabotage_media_logo", "sabotage_media_logo_mc", _root.logo_top.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.logo_top.sabotage_media_logo_mc._x = 50;
_root.logo_top.sabotage_media_logo_mc._y = 50;
What do I need to do? I tried doing onClipEvent(load) but it loads it at the start of the clip.

I am using flash cs3 and I have a series of quotes that fade in and out. I have a movie clip that does the fading in and out and then nested in there I have the quotes.
fadeInOut1_mc (is the instance of the fading in and out)
quotes1_mc (is the instance of the timeline of quotes nested in the above movie clip)
When the quotes end I would like the main timeline in Scene 1 to move to the next frame and play.
fadeInOut1_mc is in the timeline of Scene 1
If I could do that I think I'd be off to the races, but I'm stuck on it.

I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:

I'm having trouble having my flash file detect when my mouse goes over and/or leaves a movieclip. I want to have a mini slideshow in my menubar which, when my mouse goes over the movieclip containing the slideshow, the pictures 'enlarge', and when the mouse leaves, the clip becomes normal size again.
This is the code I've gotten the best result with, as of yet, but it only seems to notice that my mouse leaves the movieclip half of the time, and sometimes there's a 'glitch' where the clip zooms and unzooms uncontrollably when my mouse is just next to the clip.[code]...

You might think that this is a stupid question, since everyone who knows a little bit of actionscripting, knows that this can be achieved with onRollOver ... But that's not exactly what I'm looking for.
I have a small tooltip which follows the mouse and asks the user to click in order to close a picture. The tooltip follows the mouse using startDrag("tooltip", true);
But I'd like to remove the tooltip once the user moves the mousepointer outside the picture.
Though, when you use onRollOver, the mousepointer changes into a finger. This is not what I'm looking for since the picture than functions and looks like a button.
So is there any way to detect if a mousepointer is over a movieclip, without changing the cursor?

what Actionscript to put in a movie to detect whether that movie has been loaded into another movieclip?
In case that isn't clear: movie A loads movie B into a myMovieClip. What code can I put in movie B to detect that it is now a child of myMovieClip, or indeed any movie?

Am just a begineer with Actionscript but am picking up quite quickly. I been racking my brains and can't seem to find a solution. Basiaclly I've got 5 movieclips on the stage which are draggable. How can i get a message to appear in a text box if the first movieclip is moved higher than the second movie clip?

I have a draggable item, a MovieClip that calls startDrag() on itself when it is clicked, and another MovieClip on the stage.I need the MovieClip to receive ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT events while the draggable MovieClip is being dragged over it, but the lower clip doesn't receive these messages while a clip is being dragged over it.Essentially, ROLL_OVER is only sent to the topmost MovieClip under the mouse. Normally, you'd fix that with some combination of mouseEnabled or mouseChildren on the overlapping MovieClips, but if you do that to a draggable MovieClip, it breaks dragging. I need to detect when the mouse is over the lower MovieClip, regardless of what MovieClips are above it.

I have a parent movieclip with a few other movieclips inside it. When I add a mouseclick eventlistener to the stage and click on one of the children, i want the target of the event to be the parent movieclip. I still need the children to be mouseEnabled.
how do you check if a movieclip is a child of another?

I am loading jpgs into an MC. I make sure I wait to run and modification to the MC by confirming the image is loaded first.If I comment out the IF statements within the function "RW_pic_modifications()" and I trace the width and height of the MC AFTER each photo is loaded, I successfully trace the correct W and H.
My issue, however is when I DO RUN IT THROUGH the conditions within the "RW_pic_modifications()" function. Then any modifications to the MC W and H seem to compound and apply it to each iteration of the next MCs.I confirmed that my code and logic is correct. I just dont understand why performing a resize to the MC with one jpg loaded into it is not reset to the NEW JPG loaded into it, after the new JPG is loaded.
NOTE - I have an MC that stops on a frame until all the code here is executed. Once complete, then this MC plays to allow the pic to stay on screen for a given amount of time THEN it calls on the RW_Pauser() function.I am way over deadline.
Code:
How_long_to_pause = 4000;
Maximum_Image_Width = 137;[code].....

Is there a way to detect the type of a DisplayObject with a switch case statement?I noticed that you can check if the displayobject compared to the type returns true or false.
Trace(mydisplayObj is Sprite); //return true or false
Trace(mydisplayObj is MovieClip); //return true or false
But isn't there an option to get the type of the displayObject directly?
like,
switch (typeof(mydisplayObj)) {
case Sprite:
break;
