I am fairly new to AC and have some questions about a project. I am creating a gallery with images tweening from one to the other. I have the animation working but it will not loop as expected.
1) The images are loaded dynamically via the below code.
2) The main stage uses stop(); and all mc's except the gallery mc will loop as expected.[code]...
The issue I am running across is this: I encoded and embedded a movie clip to act as the background. There are other animations that can and will loop, as the movie resets itself. But there are some elements that I only want to run once and not repeat once the embedded movie loops (link introductions, where objects fly in and transition into the button). How can I set the one time animations to fire just once, while keeping the embedded animation on a loop?

View 5 RepliesI'm a newbie at Flash...and have a main movie that I would like to load external movies into..for ease of modification of the different areas vice having one large swf.I'm using the loadMovieNum command to load the external swf's just fine. When I play the external swf's by themselves...they play once and stop. When they are loaded into the main movie...they loop.I've placed a "stop();" command at both the frame in the main movie...and also on the line directly after the loadMovideNum line.
View 3 RepliesI have many movieclips on stage, let's say 100.Rather than setting onRelease or OnPress function for each one, is there any way of looping through all the movie clips (maybe if they were called MC1 MC2 MC3 MC4 etc etc), using an array, to see which one was pressed and then say what should happen if so and so MC was pressed.
Depending on which MC is pressed a variable will be a different number... e.g. MC1 pressed means variableA = 1, MC1 pressed means variableA = 2, MC1 pressed means variableA = 3 etc
I just thought there would be a more intelligent solution than writing out this 100's of times: MC[numberOfMC].onPress = function() { do something };
I made a basic slideshow it's not interactive it just loops, each time it loops the preloader loops with it so you see it each time. How would I get rid of that preloader looping?
View 1 RepliesI am adding an 6 minute audio to a flash website and want it to loop. It is a 6,000 kb size file .mp3 audio stream and audio event are set the same at, bit rate of 16kbps mono and a 60 second play time, however it loops after abt 17 seconds. I have set the sync to stream and loop. Code is simply Play(); The timeline is set to 405 frames at 24 fps. I have tested the original and it is fine and plays well when not in flash.

View 9 RepliesI have a sliding menu with buttons - each button calls an external swf - which plays in an empty movie clip.Now, I want the current loaded swf to loop till the time the user clicks on another button. The problem is, I do not have the fla files for any of the external swfs (these are screencam recordings using a software that does not publish .fla) - so I can't put a code at the end of each external swf asking it to not stop.

View 2 RepliesI am used to working in Flash MX but now have CS4. You use to be able to just drop an mp3 file onto a layer and it would loop continously now it's not doing that.I need help in a big way to loop this mp3 file in CS4.
View 3 RepliesI have created a looping movie clip which I want playing in the background of my main movie which has multiple scenes. Obviously I cant drop it on the timeline in each scene as then when it skips scenes the movie reloads and there is a jerk on the screen. Is there a piece of actionscript that I can point to my SWF and just have it looping throughout the whole movie?
View 2 RepliesIm having trouble getting my head around writing script for looping certain layers of a fla file.I have a project that I urgently need to finish and can't figure out how to achieve what I need.I have an fla file that has several animated layers.I want layer 1 to play once and stop while continuing to be visible (which I have achieved).I then need to play layer 2, layer 3 and layer 4, and loop these layers continuosly without relooping layer 1.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to loop a Flash Banner ad. I added the code to the first and last frames on a separate action layer on the main timeline, but it's not working.
I'm using actionscript 2.0/CS4.
I have a stop action on the last frame of the last text movieclip that plays. And it seems to get hung up here. When I remove the stop action it just loops that movieclip and not the whole animation.
This is the code I'm using in the first frame of the main timeline.
> var counter:Number = 0
And this is the code I'm using in the last frame of the main timeline:
> // if its being used on the last frame use a stop(); action on the top line
> if (counter < 3) {
>counter++
> gotoAndPlay(1)
> }

View 5 RepliesI'm brand new to flash so cut me a little slack. I'm in the middle of building a website in Flash CS4 in Action Script 3.0 and (according my the tutorial I'm using) I need to access the "parameters" panel. The problem is I don't see it anywhere. I see "properties" and "filters" but to parameters. I've cycled through all the workspace presets but with no luck. How can I bring it up?? Also, even though I used the "stop();" code in the beginning of my actions frame my movie just keeps looping when I test it.
View 1 Repliesthis a sample code that im currently using...but i need to find a way to do this long script, as short as possible..
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goto1)
btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goto2)
btn3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goto3)
[code].....
I have created a submit button and the text goes up when the mouse is over the button, but when I go to test the movie it seems to be on a loop and I can't see away to stop the text from looping. I found loop on the control panel but when I remove the tick there is no change and the movie continues to loop. There is no action scripts applied to the button yet.I am at the moment trying to get my head around action scripts so I am a complete beginner at this.
View 1 RepliesI created a small Flash movie that I want to end at the last frame. Instead it keeps looping and starting from the beginning. This is the link: [URL] At the end of each timeline I inserted a keyframe and added the action: stop(); But this doesn't seem to have any effect.
View 1 RepliesI can't seem to get an animation to stop looping. The only code I see for it is:
next_bt.onRelease=function(){ gotoAndPlay("fx2") }
When I test the movie layer itself it just does it once. but when i test the whole movie it just goes on and on and on.
i want is a simple 4-picture slideshow for the site, and i already have it done. Thing is, i want it to loop indefinitely, but i can not achieve that unless i put this script into actions: stop();function delay () {nextFrame();}setInterval(delay, 6000); Thing is....that prevents the loop because of the stop command. However, i can't slow it down unless i do this.....I want 6 seconds in between looping pictures.
View 3 RepliesLets, say I need to show loop for object with different instance. Is it possible ?
var myObj1:Sprite=new Sprite();
var myObj2:Sprite=new Sprite();
var myObj3:Sprite=new Sprite();
I'm not sure when it started happening, but I believe after the update my movie keeps looping if I test the movie. This never happened before. I'm not sure what went wrong? I never changed my action script or anything. What can be my problem?
and my stop(); doesn't work
Flash CS4 Mac OS 10.4.11 - I am new to Flash and have always created small web animations in Image Ready. However, the Flash animations I have seen are so much smoother so decided to learn how to make one for next clients website. The animation keeps looping when I have specified in Flash that I want it to play once when page loads (see screen snatch attachment). Checked in 'Publish Preview' to see if it was just happening when the file was loaded into Adobe GoLive, but no, it does it in Flash.
I have tried saving in all the variations allowed but to no effect. The other thing that happens when checking the GoLive site in browsers is that for an instant before the animation begins, the background of the animation is white when I made the Flash document background a grey (F5F5F5), the grey background does kick in immediately afterwards. I have also attached the .swf file and a html file for general viewing.

I'm streaming an mp3 that plays while my movie plays. I did this through an empty movie clip with an instance name soundLoader. Then on an actions layer I put the following:holidayTune = new Sound(soundLoader);holidayTune.loadSound("Jacks_Stomp.mp3",true);This works great, but I need it to loop. It's ending before my movie does and since the length of the movie really depends on the user's participation and how long they take to make selections (it's an interactive piece), I need it to keep playing.
View 2 RepliesI have a Flash file with several sound fx. one layer has the sound of an airplane engine. Another layer has multiple instances of a camera clicking sound. Problem is that even though I have these sounds set to "repeat 0"... they keep looping! I even placed a stop(); but they still repeat.
