I'm having a problem with adding a MouseEvent listener to a Loaded MovieClip. The loaded MC is a single frame and contains two animated MCs. There's some MouseEvent listeners already on the two MCs. Here's the code in my loader SWF:
[Code]...
I added a movieclip and named "bot_mc" in another movieclip. Then, In Action panel, I use bot_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOWN, xxxx). However, when I drag and drop the container movieclip on the main stage and compile. There is no error occurs but the MouseEvent doesn't work.

So Every time when I click left mouse button, the setClickedTrue function should be triggered. And that's what happen normally. But when I make a fast move with a mouse, and in the meantime i click left mouse button, or i make a fast move and finishing i will click left mouse button, the function is not triggering. Something like MouseEvent can't hear this Event. I'm making an avoid game, and it's very important. I'm using Timer class with delay = 30; I'm also have got 30FPS on Flash Proporties.
I'm making a button for the first time, and I wanted to use a full click to drive it. However, when I use addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickHandler); nothing happens when I click on it. When I use (with the rest of the code being identical) addEventListener(MouseEvent. MOUSE_ down, onClickHandler); it works like a charm.

I have a MovieClip (call it base_mc) which is under a bunch of other MovieClips (call them subclips). The MovieClips on top are all mouseEnabled with MOUSE_OVER, CLICK, etc, event handlers. I want to capture the event of MOUSE_OVER (or ROLL_OVER) on the base_mc as well. Any time I am over one of the subclips I am also over the base_mc clip. How can I capture this event?

View 7 RepliesI made a wedding website for a friend of mine and it went well until I stumble accross this Guestbook problem.
The GuestBook.swf I made it as a separate file & whenever I run it in the server it works well but if I load it into my Main.swf it didn't work...
I am still trying to get comfortable with AS3 so I kind of understand the problem, but can't figure out how to go about fixing it. I am developing a flash site where there is a main container swf which basically contains the site's navigation and a blank movieclip into which external swfs are loaded when the user selects a section. Loading the swfs is not an issue, but getting the actionscript in the external swfs to work is. They work fine standing alone, but when loaded into the container swf they do not.I'm assuming the issue is that the path to the eventlisteners, functions, ect. are broken when loaded into the container. I tried adding the instance name of the blank movieclip to the path but that didn't seem to work
i.e. if my blank movie clip is called "swfContainer_mc" then
Code: Select allexampleMC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, testRoll);
gets changed to:

I have created a main swf file which holds a movie container which other swf's load into. One of the sections has a form in it. When I preview this section on its own the form works, but when I preview through the main swf file (or online) the text fields cannot be typed into. How can I fix this?

View 1 RepliesI haven't been able to find documentation on why loaded movies via 'loadMovie' into another movie clip don't seem to obey onEnterFrame commands. The following code represents a movie clip, 'container', which has a loaded external .swf file, 'box.swf'.
I have set the container to begin a decreasing alpha change. I've also added a trace to see if the onEnterFrame is performing at all. What happens is that the box does not appear to have an alpha change. There is, however, a trace that returns an output of '100' only. But no other numbers, suggesting that the command has stopped.
// Start
container.loadMovie("box.swf");
container.onEnterFrame = function () {

I have made a simple site with some simple transitions. each button on my site loads in an external swf file into an empty movie clip.
One of these swf files is a guestbook which works when i dont load it into the empty clip and test it alone on my server (sending in the guestbook swf, html, php, and empty text file)
Now then, when i load in the guestbook into the main swf, nothing happens on the server when I test it - I am lost and now come to you people for advice. It obviously has something to do with being loaded into an empty movie clip that is causing conflict.
I'm loading an image into a blank_mc within a movieclip called 'background_mc' using the MovieClipLoader object; when the onLoadInit for the MovieClipLoader object is fired, i then attempt to clone my 'backgound_mc' object and the loaded image it contains so i can do something with it (i,e a funky masky/blur thing, not important right now)I'm successfully loading my image into the blank clip within background_mc, the onLoadInit behaviour fires and duplicates background_mc once the image has been loaded, but in a disappointing turn of events, my clone of background_mc no longer has an image attached, and has instead reverted back to it's original form, just as ti was before it had the jpeg image loaded in.
View 3 RepliesAtm im putting a a game i build into my main flash app.Everything works fine except the keyboard listener.unny.AFTER a mouse click on the 'loaded' swf the keys 'arrow UP' + 'arrow DOWN' start working.I created already a script that loads the listeners IF they are not loaded yet, but i think thats not the problem. Same situation.After clicking on the movie it starts to work, but apparently the listeners are already applied. All other listeners work besides the keyboard listeners.Stand alone(the game swf running by its own) the game works perfectly!btw the game is importing a main document class.
Code:
this.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN
var keybListenerLoadedUp:Boolean = false;

i made a movieclip button and everything works fine except that when i press the button it's supposed to send me to the next scene, but it doesn't, nothing happens. here's the script i did in the frame 1 of the scene:

botonix.gotoAndPlay("over");

I made a contact form in my flash website, but for some reason, you can't type in the input text boxes I made. I already have embedded the text, so that isn't the problem. I think maybe it's related to the code I have, or maybe I need a code to target the text box. One more key detail: The text box is within a movieclip. If I don't put it in the movieclip, it works fine, but I need it inside of the movieclip.
View 13 Repliesi dont understand why the easing effect doesnt work on my movieclip_mc ? I see so much fantastic effects we can do but tutorials are not really clear about easing : too much theory and not so much practical demos I m sure something like a basis position and an end position are missing?.

ive seen the tutorials on centering a jpeg to a movie clip when its loaded but they are actually cheating . All they do is load it in the center of the stage and not the center of the actual movieclip. This was working fine untill i decided to upload it on the web. And now its all screwed up because i think its trying to recalcuate what the "center" of the stage is everytime u resize ur broweser window. For anyonen who doesnt know the code im talking about here it is:
_root.container._x = Stage.width/2;
_root.container._y = 50;
_root.container._alpha = 0;

Is there a better "proper" way of doing this? Im surprised Adobe didnt fix this in cs3...

In the first frame of the main time line i have 7 movieclips which are buttons. Within these movieclips there are additional buttons with a simple rollover function to change the background colour.
The problem I'm having is that the action on the buttons doesn't work. I'm guessing this is something to do with the AS i have within the mc.
In fact, when i publish my FLA with player 9, there is no prob. When i publish with selecting player 10, there is this problem.
I paste my code :
var leng:int = MovieClip(root).program.websiteXML.pages.titlePage.length();
trace ("leng"+leng);
setInterval(function () : void {

i have a Flash CS 5.5 fla with a basic timeline animation. at the very last frame i put a keyframe with the only code being
stop();
nevertheless this movieclip doesnt stop at the end but loops infinitely.
the movie is exported as an SWC which is then loaded into another flash movie. however this does not call any functions in the movie nor does it interact with it, other than embedding it.
i have already tested this with the debug version of flashplayer to see if there are any exceptions, but no errors occur.
I still can't figure the way to make my buttons work

here is my fla file... Basically I have a rollover buttons inside a movieclip and my action script in the first frame of the scene is the following
_root.designer_mc.b1_01.onPress=function(){
goto("designer01");
}
b1_01 is the instance of the button inside designer_mc movieclip~ however I ealized that buttons won't work in movieclip and i just don't know what's other solution
how to get this fixed~ i m so stuck and I have wasted my past 2 days trying to figure this out and still no result...
I have a little snippet of code that allows the user to create a line with the mouse, and clears the line if they end up touching the hitbox with the mouse, while they're drawing the line. It works fine when it's just thrown onto the main timeline. However, when I try to encapsulate it within a movie clip, it suddenly doesn't work. At all. Are there any suggestions as to why this is happening? Here's the code.

Whenever I add a drag action to a movieclip and add constraints it doesn't work properly and the movieclip after its pressed jumps to the top of the screen.
View 5 RepliesGreetings. I've been doing this tutorial. [URL] And worked pretty well. In order to adapt to my needs i made it a movie with a drag and drop parameter to be loaded in another movie (with loadMovie or loadMovieNum). The problem is than the movie loads, drags but doesnt drops. Even i tried with the example movie and nothing happens.
View 1 Repliesi'm trying to make a scrollable box, when a mouse enters and STAYS on "wrapper"'s area, "pubsBox" moves 10 pixels to the left.
<mx:Canvas id="wrapper" height="80" width="750">
<mx:HBox id="pubsBox" horizontalGap="10" height="80" width="100%" />
</mx:Canvas>
My problem is that I'm not sure how to make the MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER work, to recognize that the mouse is still ON the area and so pubsBox should continue to move 10 pixels to the left every second. I understand that i have to use a Timer, but what I'm concerned about is the fact that I can't get Flex to recognize that the mouse is still OVER "wrapper" and continue firing the event.
