I'm trying to get an effect of opening a particular movieclip in a certain way when you click a button on a scrolling background movieclip. There's an attached animation for visual explanation.Basically-
>Click button
>'ball' appears from middle of button (though a scrolling MC makes that hard so appears from mousecursor position)

I want the movieclip in Frame 1 Scene 1 to finish before skipping to Frame 2 Scene 1 im using gotoAndStop("Scene 1", 2); at the end of the MC

How can I get a button inside a movieclip link to a frame in another movieclip on the scene? I tried this code:
function gotoCenter(event:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(root).centermc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
skruetest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoCenter);
..where "skruetest" is the button, "centermc" is the movieclip where I want to go to frame 2. I don�t get errors with this code, but nothing happens when I click the button. What can I do?

I'm amateur flash-animator going to create his first flash game. Everything is sketched out perfectly and the only thing left to do is the programing. This is the subject I lack in the most (and that's the reason I decided to create a game...to learn) I'm using (the,by now, incredibly old) Macromedia Flash MX Pro 2004 (so that's AS2 I believe) for over 7 years now, but action-scripting is still mostly a vague uncharted territory. Sure I can get around most problems with scenes

I want to access a MovieClip in another scene than I'm currently in.
More specific I want to set a TextField to a certain value from a "preloader"-scene. This is for handling totally dynamic language phrases. Maybe this is the wrong way.
I'm loading a XML with language phrases that I want to replace the textfields with.
We could do this by altering all MovieClips, but I think this could be a smart solution, if it's possible! :)
I have a movieclip in my main scene. Inside the movieclip, there's a button. I wanted to so if I click on the button, it takes me out of the movieclip's timeline and play on the main scene's timeline. I tried gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1), but it just take my back to the first frame of the movieclip, not first frame of the main scene (scene 1)
View 4 RepliesI am trying to control a MovieClip around a scene. I know I can do this using the well known:
Code:
function onEnterFrame()
{
if( Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) )

It appears that the function downListener is unable to see the class scoped variable xvel though I do not iunderstand why.
I want to have an animated button that go's to the next scene and plays. This is the code I have on the button inside the movie clip:
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("rollover");
} on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("rollout");
} on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);
}
For some reason this doesn't work? Is the problem that the code on the button is within a movie clip?
i am developing small game, which is of 5 pages.in that next and back button is taken to move to next or back pages.so consider if user is on page2, on which page2_mc movieclip is displaying, now how can i chk that page2_mc is displayed..?my logic is clear,but i dnt know which syntax is need to use, i want to do like this way:

i opened the buttons from lindquist in this thread:I have posted already a reply but i thought it i good to start a new thread.

I made the buttons with this tutorial (in Flash 8): [URL]
I need to unload my movie clip. Here is the AS I used:
annie.onPress = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1);
loadMovie("annie.swf", "container");
container._x = 380;
container._y = 190;
[Code] .....
Problem is I only want it to show in one scene and it is covering everything on the other scenes as well or "Pages".
I am getting better at Flash 8, but I have a problem. I am in a Movie Clip, and when you press 'g' it returns you to the first scene, and I want it to go to the second scene.
on(keyPress "g"){
_parent.gotoAndStop("Scene 2",7);
}
Is there a way you can do that?
I have created a Flash movie in AS3.It has 1 scene so far titled "wmain"On the first keyframe I have a movieclip: "licence_mc"Nested within this movieclip is a button that does a little fade in/fade out animation over a range of keyframes when you hold the mouse on it.This buttons Instance name is: "license_bu"Right on the keyframe of this button (so within the mc "license_mc") I placed the following code:
Code:
license_bu.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onOver);
license_bu.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onOut);

Have this code in main fla in a first scene with a simple movieclip.Seems not to work and cant figured it out

Basically I'm doing a flash website for my 3D animations. Once my intro animation ends my menu comes up which is within a main movieclip called menustage_mc and within that movieclip is a bunch of movieclips acting as buttons to navigate through the site and their animation.When you press on a button it will move to a particular scene. I'm using multiple scenes so i don't clutter the main timeline for myself. I've read a couple of posts saying that i shouldn't use multiple scenes but there is no explanation as to why. I'm assuming i should add and remove movieclips but i'm very new to actionscript and in particular as3 but that's a different question somewhere down the line.
My problem is that when i click on a button for example sketches, i want to finish playing the menustage_mc animation and then go to the sketches scene. However i'm trying different variations and am not getting any success. There are instances where the animation plays but then doesn't go to the next scene. Another instance is that it goes straight to the selected scene but doesn't finish playing the menustage_mc.So all I really want to do is finish playing the menustage_mc animation before it goes to the correct scene? I have seen things where I can go the menustage_mc and put nextScene(); on the final frame but it's not what i am really aiming to do.
I am in a second scene... and am trying to call a frame label in an mc in scene 2 is there a such thing as...
on(release) {
_thisScene.mymc.gotoAndStop("framelabel");
}
this scene?
I have added the following code to my mc, but how do I get it to display scene 1 frame one when it is done? After it is done reversing I need it to immediately go to that scene because it has all of my buttons showing. Here is my fla file:

I'm trying to make a scene in a game fadeout by have a movieclip. I have the movieclip and want to put inside the movieclip timeline some actionscript to go to the next frame but the simple

I am just scratching my head about how one would mask a papervision scene with a movieclip out of the library?
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to load a movieclip into my scene when the viewer clicks on an invisible_btn the instance name of the btn is "invisible_btn" and the name of the movieclip is "Symbol1."
How can I get my movieclip to run once the invisible_btn is clicked?
I'm incorporating Flash for the first in my site [URL] it should a simple navigation but it has had me stuck for a while. I would like users to click any button on the stage (listed or thumbnails) and open a MC, then close the MC, using a close button , then return to Scene One, which is frame labeled "home".
I am able to successfully open and close the Movieclip but I am not directed back Scene One. When the MC closes, the thumbnail buttons are inactive.
Here is some sample code from The last frame of the MC actions.
stop();
closeVogue_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickVogue);
function onClickVogue(event:MouseEvent):void
{ gotoAndStop("home");
}
In my FLA file (FLASH-8, AS-2)? in the library I have a movieclip named "mc" which is just one frame and in it specifies a property "price" like this: this.price="three";
In the main scene I have this code:
attachMovie("mc","t1",1)
t1.onPress=function(){trace(t1.price)}; //returns the correct value "three"
trace(t1.price); //returns "undefined"
Why the first trace(t1.price) returns the correct value and the second one returns "undefined"?And how do I make this property available without using onPress? The objective is to output the pictures of a set of movieclips and place the price of each picture under it using a dynamic textfield
I have a movie clip on the main timeline. This movieclip has buttons that I want to play different frames in scene 1.

I wanted to create a portfolio in flash, so I designed the layout in photoshop, with different webpages in different groups. So groups i created: home, about, porfolio, contact, affiliates, topbar, menu.I use Creative Suite 3 or CS3I then imported the groups into flash as movieclips, using the import to stage function. here is the image of the main scene in the flash. (SEE IMAGE 1st thumbnail)I created a new layer on top of all the layers and used labels at equal intervals to differentiate between pages.here's the image depicting the same.(SEE IMAGE 2nd thumbnail)Now in the home movie clip, i made all the text layers as movie clips to make button animations and assigned sounds and actions to them i.e. rollver, rollout andclick events. here's the swf.(PM ME FOR SWF)I want to know the code or method to load the frame labelled ''about'' in the main scene when i click on the movieclip button 'about' which is in the movieclip 'home'. Here's the code i tried for the first 'about' button, but it returns error "1120: Access of undefined property event."

so I have some buttons that, as of right now, simply trigger the scene to move on while at the same time killing some particle effect animations I have spawning when the animation is idle. What I now need to do is make these events move on to a specific scene AFTER the rest of the scene's animation has played out (about 400 more frames) I'm figuring that the gotoAndPlay command has to be tied to some sort of timer variable that I would have to figure out based on my fps. Or maybe there is a way to set up a timer directly tied to a certain amount of frames allowed to go by. I'm pretty noob at actionscript, so keep that in mind. Here is the script at the point where the animation pauses to await user input on the buttons:
