The problem is that my fading routine does not work. One image loads, and the next one appears straight away when it is finished loading.

II'm trying to create a title page where two movie clips fade in. One is a dynamic text movie clip, the second is an image that is loaded.[code]I've traced the heck out of this, so all I know is that image_mc seems to only generate a single onEnterFrame event and then stops.It seems that if I comment out the .loadMovie line, the placeholder movie clip fades in properly, so obviously there is something about onEnterFrame events and loadMovie that I don't know.
View 2 RepliesI have a very simple main.swf with buttons in a mc. once a button is clicked it loads and external swf file into x y pos.
How can I set it up so when the external swf loads with a fade in and the other one fades out?
This is my existing code now!
var Xpos:Number = 0;
var Ypos:Number = 75;
var swf:MovieClip;

how I might be able to accomplish this with this code. This code is from [URL] it works great but just need it to fade in and out the swf files.
could someone with scripting a fadein/fadeout transition for external swfs between the button clicks or suggest another way to do it?

View 4 RepliesI have an main index.swf that loads external swfs. In these external swf timelines I have fade ins of its content and artwork, so what I'm trying to do is simply have these swfs load over the current loaded one without starting from a blank space, and then I'll remove the replaced swf with removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnter);. But I can't figure out how to get the clips to load over each other with my current code.
I'm attempting this by loading them into movieclips. I can't quite figure it out using muliple Loader's, which I'm sure is a way to acheive this.
What happens thus far: the loading swfs replace the current loaded swf, but the loaded swf is blank every other click, and even without the alpha event handler code the swf just replaces the current swf in its movieclip from blank space.

I am trying to create a canvas which will display 5 images ( one in each corner and one in the middle) now the trick is that the loader should be able to load any jpgs uploaded into that directory and display them in a random order in one of the 5 spots, and also the images should fade in and out.

SO i have looked and looked and I am beginning to believe that this may just be impossible to do with Actionscript. Basically i have a backend php file that creates an XML file of randomly selected entries from a Db. That XML file is imported to the swf file, and currently i can rotate through the XML nodes with no problem. Where i am now having issues is trying to have each entry Fade in.........and then fade out. Doing this with tweening is not an option because the tween time period never matches up with the backend actionscript rotation time period.
I have read alot about how you need to embed fonts to make this possible. have done that to no avail. THis can not be that out there of an idea. Basically i have a list of advertiser names and am wanting to rotate through them........but want a little more style than just a hard cut between the entries.

I can't work out why - but when I try to fade out some text (by calling fadeoutSecondText), the text fades out, and then immediately fades back in. Fading in and out struggle against each other, resulting in rapidly flashing text!

I'm trying to analyze the sample file load_images.fla which is delivered with flash mx... and here's my problem:there's a line in the first frame in the actions layer which is as follows:if (whichPic<5 && !fadeIn && !fadeOut) {.........}now what is "fadeIn" or "fadeOut"? I thought it might be a method of the MovieClip-Object, but it's not listed in the actionscript-reference. then I thought, it could be a method defined within the flash-movie itself, but it isn't (at least i couldn't find it). so what is it?

I'm building a website with fadein/fadeout transitions between sections. On button click, a white rectangle on the very top layer (filling all the screen) is faded in. Once ended, the section changes and the rectangle fadeout is started.
It technically works, but I've noticed that the first transition is not fluid, while the next are fluid. Does exist an efficient technique to achieve the goal?
