I video file using a cue point to show a movie clip at a certain spot. The movie clip becomes visual at the correct cue point however it doesn't animate, it shows the last frame of the animation and not the beginning.
View 2 RepliesThe problem is that the whole function of adding a movie clip to another movie clip suddenly has been disabled or something. I took a look at previous work of mine (.fla of course) because I suddenly remembered I used a movie clip in a movie clip, and that randomly doesn't work anymore either. Even the time line is edited: just 1 keyframe and nothing more, but increasing the timeline keeps it static regardless.
View 7 Replieshow to target to the another movie clip to animate?I was using code as below but the output is not really correct.It seemed something is duplicating (I just suppected)
PHP Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I'm trying to learn more about using Tween Class to animate a movie clip. I've got an MC in the first frame of my timeline. Rather than use tweens in the timeline to adjust the x/y coordinates, height/width, and alpha of my MC, I'd like to use actionscript to accomplish this.My research so far has got me to import the transitions and easing,
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

Im trying to animate a set of empty movie clip containers. When I select them and try to apply a motion tween.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a project where i have been given an FLA that has lots of images contained in movieclips that animate when you roll over them. These animations are all contained on the timeline of each separate movieclip, so the code was basically a lot of gotoAndPlay("2") statements and so on.
I have been given it to work on because the different movieclips need to go to a URL read in from an XML file when clicked on, and i have this part working no problem.
I also need to be able to read in image paths taken from the same XML file as the urls, and load these images into a movieclip holder within the movieclips on the main timeline. However the problem that i am having is once the images are loaded into img_holder which is placed inside a movieclip they will not animate on that movieclip's timeline.[code]...
I am trying to animate a movie clip that has a dynamic text box in it using the tween class but I can't get it to work. I thought that if yr text box was inside a movieclip then tweening was possible. I've attached the fla so you can have a look.

How can I animate this (slide to x position), since there is nothing in timeline ?
I'm trying to make a movie clip animate based on a boolean variable.
so that if boolean a is true, I want the movie clip to play frame 1. if boolean is false, play frame 2. I tried using an onClipEvent but it doesnt want to work.
I only got into Flash after AS3 so I am pretty ignorant of AS2.I'm editing a client's piece and am trying to create a 'Play Again' button at the end of the movie. There is a button inside the main content movie clip with this code on it but it is not working..
Code:
on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay('start');
}
in my dynamic gallery my empty movie clips that load the images have their registration point at the top left of frame.this means that even if i have images of different sizes, I have to make them all the same size and then with white borders if necessary so that they all display in the same place. it would be better if they were centred inside the emoty movie clip and the movie clips registration point was at the centre.. is this possible ?
View 1 RepliesI've received an .fla file with a design and am trying to play with it using ActionScript. I've got a symbol of a star on stage (movie clip) that I want to animate with AS. The movie clip's registration point is set to bottom right corner.
How can I change the registration point in Flash?
I'm trying to do something very simple: animate a bunch of sprites so that, no matter where they are on the stage, they all go toward a single point (in this case, the center of the stage).
It only works for some of them. Some of them just sit there. I can't figure out why. I think its got something to do with atan2 and the way I'm using it, but I'm not sure what.

i have an animated title that i would add some blood to roll across the title (as a flash movie clip) and then stop at a certain point - Forever!
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,myFunction);function myFunction(event:Event) { blood_mc.play(); blood_mc.gotoAndStop(20);}
This is what i have so far but the blood does not play then stop/pause when the blood reaches the bottom point of the title ( like its meant to) just the end frame of the blood on the title is displayed - no movement can this be done.
I have a fairly complex movie clip with a bunch of animations in it, and it seems that the registration point for it is at some random location in the middle of it all.
View 0 RepliesIs there a way to set the registration point of a movie clip programmatically in actionscript? I want to be able to use createEmptyMovieClip(...) and then set the registration point to the center of the clip in order to do a symmetrical rotation.

View 17 RepliesI am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

I'm creating a small drag & drop activity, and I want to be able to check and see if the dragged movie clip is completely within the bounds of another movie clip (or at least in the bounds of a certain x/y zone on the main stage. I can't use dropTest because it returns true if any tiny bit of the movie clip overlaps with the dropTest movie clip.
I also thought of something that just checks the x/y coordinates of the dragged movie clip, but I'd need this to reflect a range of values rather than one coordinate. For instance, I'd want to return true if the movie clip's x is between 50-60 AND the y is between 50-60. I'm attaching a small graphic to illustrate in case my explanation isn't clear enough [URL]

View 2 RepliesThere is a bad gap in my knowledge with Event Dispatch and Event architecture, and this problem proves it. I've been getting nowhere on this problem for two days, I've posted everything to my Flash site. Go here, please: [URL] Click on "Flash Banners" The two thumbnails represent two different classes. Each class is identical. Both are "extends Movie Clip" classes. Tweeners of various types control the hover and click methods. URL Loaders load the thumnails which I then wrap in MC's and make them buttonMode = true, etc. Hover and click to load the Banners on the thumbnails.
I can't send an event from the Eagle movie clip or the T2D movie clip to tell the other to fade out. Both Banner classes are instantiated through a separate Base class. I'm sure this has to be an Event Dispatch from one MC to another and that it can't be done by the Base class. how I can send an Event or Event Dispatch and what the code structure is so one movie clip can in one class can tell the other movie clip in the other class to disappear while it's neighbour is playing. I'm happy to post code or explain / clarify anything that's not clear.
I've got a main timeline .swf file called "blank.swf" which contains nothing but two blank movie clips one called called "pproduct", the other called "ppalette". In the script frame of this main timeline I use the simple "Loader = new Loader();" method to load a URL of an .swf file into the "ppalette" movie clip. The "ppalette" movie clip contains several color chip buttons, each of which use the same Loader method above to load an external .swf into a clip. Here's what I want to do: let those color chip buttons, when the "blank.swf" file loads, be used to load an .swf movie into the "pproduct" clip on the main timeline. I'm wanting to be able to swap depths with various movie clips which will take out the movie which has the palette, but I want whatever that palette has loaded in the original "pproduct" clip to stay there.

View 5 RepliesI created a movie clip which plays ok. But when it ends there is a slight jump, if you will, when it goes back to frame 1 to begin playing again. Does anyone know how to make the transition unnoticeable from the last frame of a movie clip to the first frame of a movie clip?
