ActionScript 3.0 :: JPGs Overlayed Over Sound Layer In Series Of Scenes
Oct 27, 2010
I am trying to build a very simple Flash app in CS4. All I want to do is have JPGs overlayed over a sound layer in a series of scenes. I want a basic intro scene that ends w/ a table of contents from where you can click to view any scene. At the end of each scene is a frame where the user can replay the current scene, return to the TOC frame in scene 1 or proced to the next scene. I am having two SERIOUS problems.
1. For some reason my movie is NOT stopping at the "stop ();" action at the end of scene one. the action is on its own keyframe in the timeline, but when I "test movie" it just plays right past that to scene 2.
2. I obviously need multiple buttons on a scene to do different things on click. Does it really have to be as complicated as it seems to have multiple buttons all do different things on click? I keep getting told I have duplicate actions when I have two buttons on a page that do different things on click. I have named each button instance a unique name and written the gotoandplay click event using those unique instance names.

I'm justing starting to learn some actionscript. I can't figure out why my jpgs are flickering when I go from one scene to another. Do they have to reload each time? Here is a link: http:[url].....I have each animation as a separate scene, and you'll see that the buttons flicker when the new scene loads.

whenever I set my sound to stream and continue to make a movie with multiple scenes. The audio and video get disgustingly out of sync sometimes even off by 30 seconds. I just started an animation its only 10 seconds long with two scenes and the AV is already off by about 5 seconds. Ive worked around this by avoiding scenes altogether but i really don't want to have another 5000 frame scene. I discovered this problem in Flash MX and Im quite annoyed that it still has't been fixed 3 years later!

I have created a X-mas card for my company. When the card opens, the 3 circles are buttons to different scenes within Flash. The text in the bottom left is a button to the final scene.
The card can be viewed here: [URL]
1) When I click on the circle button that has the red garland and tree ornaments in it, if you listen close at the very beginning of the scene, a squeek sound plays. I use this squek sound in the hamster wheel movie symbol used in other scenes, but not in this scene. I don't even have the sound in this scene of the Flash project anywhere. I can not figure out where it is coming from.
2) Does anyone have some optimization tips? My project file is huge and a lot of the people we will be sending this out to probably don't have the most up-to-date processers. Should I split each scene into it's own Flash movie that is only loaded when the button for that scene is selected instead of the whole thing loading?
Here is a link to view the .FLA file: [URL]

I'm doing a project that I have to use scenes in, I have a sound object that i want to be able to control in all scenes. I set up global variables for the sound object and a boolean to check if the sounds currently playing like this :
PHP Code:
_global.sound1= new Sound();
_global.sound1.attachSound("song");
_global.soundplaying = 0;
In each scene I have two buttons a stop and a play button, Heres my code for play:
PHP Code:
if(!_global.soundplaying){
_global.sound1.start();
_global.soundplaying = 1;
}
And stop:
PHP Code:
_global.stewielaugh.stop();
_global.soundplaying = 0;
Doesn't seem to work, if I press play in scene one and go to scene 2 and then return to scene one the sound can be played again on top of the already playing sound object.

I've set a music sound to play across three scenes in my movie. However, when the user clicks to enter the fourth scene, I'd like the music to stop. Simple enough.
Here's the problem...the fourth scene contains individual keyframes in the scene where I have separate voice overs for each frame. The user navs forward or backward among the scene's keyframes using arrow buttons for forward and backward. How can I have the voice over stop playing on frame 1 if the user clicks the arrow to go to frame 2 if the frame 1 sound isn't finished playing? Frame 1 plays out until finished, even if the user has clicked to go to frame 2.
Then, on return to the main scene where the general music file played, I'd like it to resume playing upon the user clicking 'return home.'
Incidentally, I set up my sound files to play on a soundtrack timeline.

I have only two days to get this working and handed in. My class did not teach actionscript, the code for keeping sounds playing through multiple scenes was provided for us :
var mySound:Sound = new soundtrack();
mySound.play();
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work in actionscript 3..... and my entire movie is actionscript three. It won't let me save down or convert it or anything.... and I can't get my stuff into another file without screwing it all up.

I currently have a movie, about 12 scenes long. I have a sound control that loops the track I have the user select repeatedly. But because I wanted music to always play unless they manually turned down the volume in my controls I load the music each time the main scene is loaded... This ends all of the other sounds and just restarts the first track in my list.
Here's the code:
For the main frame, inside a movie clip placed on scene 1:
stop ();
stopAllSounds ();
setProperty ("playing1", _visible, "1");
setProperty ("playing2", _visible, "0");
[Code]....
All I want this to do is keep playing the track the user selected, and not have to reset everytime the main scene is loaded...

I simply don't understand why now at the end of my project, the last 5 frames are giving me such trouble. I have five scenes. The first scene plays fine. Second scene plays fine until just the end, then it grabs audio from the third, fourth and fifth scenes and starts playing them. Here is the site: [URL] (it is a site for children in Swedish) if you click the 3rd button to the right (3 Delan) you will notice that the sound starts truncating and then starts grabbing and placing into scenes before the next scene.

Situation: I have a project I'm working on where I have buttons which make click sounds on their own, and also take you to other scenes where a sound will immediately play. There are also three movieclips involved, total my base movieclip and two independent ones that load on top of that. Problem: I want to include a Mute button so that you can turn off all sounds, but can't figure out how to do that..As I understand it, stopAllSounds won't work for me, because as soon as someone hits another button, a new sound will play.

Most of my flash movies have been reasonable sizes, but the one I'm working on now is kind of a beast. It's up against the 16000 frame limit, so I'm looking into ways to chop it up. The problem is that I need a way to keep my background music playing across multiple scenes or movies. Is there a way to start a sound file in one movie, and have it continue when another scene is loaded or when a second movie file is loaded with ActionScript?

I have two sound clips I want to add into the background of my existing movie.
The first clip is a short fade-in that should only play once; the second clip should begin right where the first one stops and loop.

I am developing a flash web site using ACTIONSCRIPT 3. There is a menu of small icons that, when one of them is clicked, the program loads the correspondent SWF into a loader and then presents it in a "virtual screen" ( a rectangular area ) in the web page. The problem is that some of these child SWFs have an embedded background sound and I DO NOT KNOW how to mute them from the main SWF when a user decides to do so by clicking a "mute" button.
Each SWF embedded sound has its own layer in its timeline and is set as Sync: Event, Repeat:1.

I am doing some research on creating clcikTags. I read a few places that the clcikTag should be on the top layer. That has been fine, but now I want to loop it and I usually put my actions in the top layer. Will this cause a problem? Am I better off just putting my loop action on the last key frame of the clcikTag layer?

Im creating a program that is designed to allow the used to select 3 pictures (movie clips) and print them off on a single peace of paper.
The program works by allowing the user to select 3 graphics (the graphics are actually instructions for various exercises) and then moving the desired movieclips onto the stage. This all happens on a layer named "Content"
So far the program will allow the user to select the movieclips and will move them into place on the Content layer as well as move smaller versions of the pictures into a preview box the only thing it does not do is print. (the most important bit)

Is it possible to create multiple layer masks over a single layer using Actionscript3?Below is the flash effect I wanted to create with masks.First it starts from A and goes to B and C simultaneously.Then from B it goes to H and D simultaneously (the same applies to C).This is how the end result will look like.ps. I need my background to be transparent. I'm embedding it into a web page later.

I can't seem to go to a master edit file that is supposed to show both the body (layer 1) and wing (layer 2) of a flying bird animation. Is there a way to merge these two since I'm planning on shrinking it down and making a lot of birds?He merged the two layers at 14:24 of the video without even explaining how he went to this so called "Edit Master Movie Clip" that seems non-existent on Adobe Flash CS4.

I want to create a simple mask. A white oval on a second layer on top of a bottom layer that just has a word of type. I want the oval to travel from the upper left down to cover up the type. When I create the second layer, create the oval, and choose a distant frame for the "end" of the oval's positioning, my type in the first layer disappears as soon as I press F6 on that second layer. Why? Why is it nuking my first layer?

I have a container MovieClip called Drags where I can drag stamps (other MovieClips)--they are added to the Drags container via addChild. I have a second container MovieClip above that one (display order-wise) call Paint that contains a bmp, and some sprites used for adding a layer of paint.
My question is this: I need to be able to click on the Paint layer when I am above a draggable MovieClip and trigger the MouseEvent for the correct object to drag it around, but the item must always remain below the Paint layer.

I'm trying to do a little comic comedy type video in Flash. I've done an outline sketch with the pen tool of my first character, now I want to color it BUT I want to keep the colors and the outline sketch separated on two different layers. Is there a way I can select the path (outline) on layer A and then colorize it with the bucket tool on layer B? The problem I'm having is that every object I select it automatically jumps to that corresponding layer.
One reason why I want to do it this way is I still want to continue working freely on the outline sketch since it's not fully finished, so that I just can blend the colors out and keep working on the outline, at the same time I want to color it while I go just to see where it's going and to make sure that I'm not wasting my time unnecessarily with trying to do a outline just to find out that it won't work out at the end.
how to do a comic type animation, how to create the characters, how to make them move and talk? It can be a free or paid resource.

I have an interactive story divided into scenes. At the end of each scene a button appears. This occurs on a frame on the timeline.
There are two different buttons that might appear based on whether a prior scene has been viewed or not.
For example, there are Scene_1 and Scene_2. At the end of Scene_2 one of two buttons will appear. The buttons will be either "Go see Scene_1" or "Return to Main Menu".
If the user has already seen Scene_1, Flash will know that and automatically go to the frame in Scene_2 that contains the button "Return to Main Menu".
Conversely, if the user has not seen Scene_1, Flash will know and automatically go to the frame in Scene_2 that contains the button "Go see Scene_1".
I imagine there would be an action frame at the end of Scene_2 that will contain the as2 code to enable this action.
Perhaps something like, but probably not at all like the following:
if ("Scene_1", last frame == true){gotoAndPlay("frame#");}else{gotoAndPlay("frame#");}

I am working with a project that has many scenes. Each scene has a movie clip attached to it. The first scene is simple...just a couple of buttons and that is it. My worry is that when I add all of the videos that correspond with each button and publish the SWF will be a huge file. THE QUESTION: Does flash load ALL scenes of a movie or does it load the first scene and then load the other scenes when the user needs to view them?
My ultimate goal is to just have the first scene load and then when the user clicks on the buttons contained within that scene that only upon release does the corresponding scene load. Maybe I am doing this completely wrong and should look at doing it another way.

Is it possible to add layers, re-order layers, move movieclips from layer to layer or specify which layer a duplicate movieclip appears on at runtime with AS3?I am aware of the depth properties and the functions associated with that but it would be easier to have a concept of a layer because I am dealing with masks.I have a nasty feeling I'm gonna be told that layers don't really exist within an swf and that depths and setmask are all there is to work with.

I am triggering short sounds dynamically from the library for a game (Specifically Air for Android). When the user clicks a button the sound can take up to 600ms to actually play. I have set it for any silence before the actual sound by calling the sound like so:

All return the same results. I know there are threads here that talk about this but none have offered a real solution that I can find. Is there no way to cache the sound or store it in a buffer?
