ActionScript 3.0 :: Navigation Bar For All Scenes?
Jul 17, 2010
ActionScript 3 is just too tough for me, so here's a probably very simple question: How do I manage to create a navigation bar across all Scenes (6) and Frames (125 per Scene)? how to create the button and the AS, but it's only valid for one single frame then...
How I did it:
Code:
land.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToScene_11);
function fl_ClickToGoToScene_11(event:MouseEvent):void
[Code]....
Search function here keeps crashing or not loading, is that normal?

Below is the working code I have for navigating a presentation composed of multiple scenes.It works by starting a listener that waits for key presses and then jumps to the scene where the letter that was pressed is present in the first frame of the scene.Example: Press the letter C and the presentation jumps to the scene where there is a frame marker with the uppercase letter C present.
ActionScript Code:
// Begin Keyboard Navigation
// This script goes to the frame/scene-frame labeled in a single uppercase letter.

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 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.

I am coding this loader that requires multiple Scenes because of long swf presentations. My loader swf is using a timeline scrubber and I am having problems when dealing with Scenes because the currentframe goes back to "0" when a new scene starts and scrubber goes back to the beginning.

I am having a very unique problem: I am creating a simple flash website, and I have a series of buttons that link to a series of frames. There are 27 buttons, and each proceed to a separate labeled frame. Each of the frames is a short animation 13 frames long. The buttons are all versions of this:
[Code]....
Then, 13 frames into the animation I just have a stop(); command. My issue is that if you click on any button in the series, none of the buttons that go to frames before the current one work. If I click button 20 and go to the 20th animation in the set, buttons 1-19 don't work, but 21-27 still do.
What's more, from moving the actions around to see if they needed to be in the same key frame as the button, I found that if the actions are in a single key frame in any of the animations, the animation stops on the frame that the actions are in. I also found that each button will only work once.

I've just started working with CS4, and admittedly I'm new to Flash, but I can't get the Scene functionality to work as described in the docs. The class MovieClip has a currentScene property that should return a Scene object. The Flash 10.0 docs give this code as an example :import flash.display.Scene;var scene:Scene =mc1.currentScene;trace(scene.name + ": " + scene.numFrames + " frames"); However, if you create a new ActionScript 3.0 fla file, create a MovieClip instance, name it mc1, and put this exact code in one of the frames, it returns a Scene object with no name and only 1 frame.Changing the name of the scene in CS4 does not . Am I missing something?

I'm building a portfolio site and I've renamed the secenes and reordered them but when I test the movie it defaults to what was originally scene 1. I'm working in AS2. If the mods will allow the web site is [URL]. There is an intro page which was scene 6 which is now renamed "intro" and draggd to the top of the pile but it doesnt show when I preview or upload.

I'm building a simple interactive video/animation in Flash. I have a sample from the company that I'm going follow and they use separate scenes for different sections of the video. I've read there are disadvantages to using Scenes but I haven't seen any advantages. In fact I haven't found much about Scenes at all. Most people seem to build their stuff in one scene, just labeling frames so they can jump to them to make scenes that way. I also have been looking up tutorials and I can't find anything about using the Scenes palette and how to connect the scenes together. Is there any reason I should use this Scenes palette and not do my whole video in one scene?

I am doing a project for work and haven't used scenes in 3 years so I am a little rough around the edges.
What I am have is 3 buttons which should each go to 3 different scenes. The scene names are "home", "twoPortlands" and "portlands" and then each scene has a layer with the Frame Label of "home", "twoPortlands" and "portlands" I want the first button to go to and play "home" I want the second button to go to and play "twoPortlands" and then the third button to go to play "portlands"
I have the following code on the first frame of home (which is the main interface)

I upgraded to Flash CS4 and found out i dont like actionscript 3. i have an older flash site I opened in CS4 and all the actionscripts work on the scenes. I began a new flash file and created scenes with the actionscript 2, but it wont let me enter the script in the actionscript window. Here is an example of what i am using to navigate with buttons. Can someone chime in and show me a simple method to navigate thru the scenes with actionscript 3 or how to continue to use actionscript 2.

I am creating my first Flash Web site, learning ActionScripting as I go. I think my most recent problem requires some simple scripting, but I haven't found a solution on the Board, so I decided to post this message.
Basically, I am trying to make the transitions between each section of my site seamless, and in absence of any HTML-like jumps in which the page just cuts to another. For example, when you click on a button from the main navigation area of my portfolio site, you are taken to another section (separate scene),and the content area changes.I want the previous scene to fade out, after the button is clicked, before the new scene loads. Another words, I need to figure out how to tell the timeline to do this for each button:
When I click the Graphics navigation button,FIRST play frames 300-310 of the current scene (fading out animation)THEN take me to the frame label graphics.Heres the code attached to my Graphics button currently (it nested inside a movie clip, hence the _.root part). How would I change this to get it to play frames 300-310 of the current scene before it takes me to the graphics page?
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("graphics");
}

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 have a site that has one main file and then another five sub swfs that get loaded in when you click on various buttons. I would like to load these sub swfs behind the scenes, even before they click to open them. Is there a way to load them into some mc without adding it to the stage, but making it so that when they do click to actually load that swf in, it will already be cached? I'd prefer not to do a traditional preloader for each and every sub section. I'd rather just load in all the sub swfs, have them cached and ready to go so that when they do click on a section, it will be good to go.

I've got a little flash video I made with multiple scenes, frame by frame animation, some text, sound etc. I figured I'd add a pause button so slower readers could read the text. And it ALMOST works.I took the code right out of an actionscript 3 tutorial on the adobe tv, worked fine when I did the tutorial, but that had only the one scene.And as far as I can tell it works fine in my video: in the first scene and then doesn't. I'm wondering if it has to do with button instances or something but I've tried everything I can think of: copy pasting code into the next scene, changing names. But I get a duplicate functions error with that and it doesn't work at all!Does anyone know how to get this to work with more than just one scene?
Here is the code:
play();
pauseButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER , pausePlay);
function pausePlay(e:MouseEvent):void
{
stop();
}
And then the same again with Mouse out and resume play and play in the brackets.

I'm a bit new to actionscript 3 so be patient! I'm trying to createa button on the stage which links to a different scene (scene 2) when its pressed, and moves the playhead to a different frame for mouseover (shows button summary) the problem I have is that the jump to a different frame (via framelabel) works flawlessly, however when I try to jump to another scene, it doesnt do anything when the mouse is clicked.

I have created my first Flash CS4 presentation. It includes nine, mostly text, scenes, with no audio or video. The entire presentation has a row of nine circles across the top that distinguishes each chapter (scene) of the presentation. The presentation (movie) currently plays without stopping.Now my client wants to be able to click on each circle to pause/play the presentation at that chapter (scene), skip a chapter (scene), or go back to play a previous viewed chapter (scene).Can anyone recommend a simple scene pause/play script I can add to each circle (which will now become buttons)?

I made a movie that has two scenes. It is an intro for a website. I want Scene 1 to play through once, stop for a few seconds, and then transition into Scene 2. Scene 1 is like a cute little "loading" sequence that takes only about 2 seconds to run. I would like Scene 1 to then make a slow-er, smooth transition into Scene 2. I would then like the movie to stay on Scene 2 and continue looping only Scene 2 until the user presses the "Click to Enter" button.
