ActionScript 3.0 :: Phase Out One Clip And Bring In Another
Jan 18, 2009
What code would you use so that when a button on the main menu of a site is clicked, it plays the end of the current movie before bringing up the next?
I have a site where each page is contained in a movie, and each movie has 3 parts.
1. Intro
2. Pause where content is kept on page
3. Outro
When a button is picked to go to a new page, I would like the outro to play before loading the next movie. Is there a way to do this?
I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) { _root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true; } on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
basically I have all these panels arranged so that when you click on the title they expand to show my work
but they are expanding behind each other, so i'm trying to get some actionscript 3.0 together so that when you click on one of the panels it will be brought to the front and expand so that the others arent visible until you click the button again and it folds back up.
i've attached screenshots. ss2 is what i want to happen and ss3 is what keeps happening.
here's what i have so far...

I have several movie clips that zoom in and zoom-out, how do I bring one movie clip to front on mouse over? So the other movie clips remain same size and in the background.
I've been scouring the internet for the past hour or so in search of how to do this. It's very simple, but every example seem to want me to bring a loaded movie clip, or trace mouse position. I don't need that! Basically I have a button that when clicked comes to the front (using behaviours), moves to a new position, scales and then I want every other button behind it to blur. Obviously I want them to blur gradually to keep the flow going. Here's my current code so you can see where its going:
I have integrated FlexPMD into my pom.xml file but I need to change the phase & goal in which the plugin is run. Currently it runs in the site phase but I need it to run in the test or compile phase. Is this possible?
I have a custom itemRenderer based in the TreeItemRenderer. I would like to include a control depending on the object passed to the renderer; but in the createChildren method the data property is null. How to access data in this phase?
Scenario, you have a MC with a nested MC, and that MC has a nested MC. So mc1 contains mc2, and mc2 contains mc3. Pretty simple.I add an event listener to the top most mc (mc1) for a MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER (that bubbles, unlike ROLL_OVER). Is there a way to get every item that the capture phase moves through?For example, rolling over mc3 fires the event with the target being mc3 and currentTarget being mc1 (as thats where the listener was added). But I want to know about mc2 being rolled over rather than mc3, and because technically mc2 is being rolled over because it contains mc3.I am using this at the moment to traverse back up the list, and check each item. But surely there is a better way.
PHP Code: mc1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, f);function f(e:MouseEvent):void { var t:Object = e.target; do switch(t.name) case"mc1": trace("hit mc1");
If I have the following code which adds an event listener to the stage, why does it not respond when the capture parameter is set to true. It works fine when it is set to Target and Bubblig (false). My understanding is that all the phases happen...
I have 10 mc's. They are all placed in a row on top of each other (like a deck of cards layed out). On rollover I want the rolled over mc to get to the highest depth and stay there until another mc I rollover another mc that gets the new highest depth.
I have created a site that calls in text from an external .txt file. The text file is a flat file that is updateable using PHP. What I need is for the Flash site to reflect the current contents of the text file each time it's updated through the PHP interface. I'm using the standard:
I did get it to 'kind of work' at one point, but the output text would flash 'undefined', then show the contents of my text file, then go blank then start that loop over again. Not acceptable.
I have 3 movieclips in separate layers. inside each they have buttons.I want the mc i hover to move to the front. right now they overlap.see attached. the green cricle appears behind the other 2.
If you go to the Portfolio page im trying to design 3 links that open up a mini section.. if you notice, each link stl has the other links overlaping the clip, because all links are on the same level..I have tried a couple of scripts that say they bring the clip to the front on rollover but have found nothing that works..
I have flash file, there is text, who loads from xml file and movie clip. i need, this movie clip, with all content bring to front, because, now it is behind text, but I don`t know how to do that..
I've tried several codes and none work or i'm just not doing it right i guess.See my SWF.The circles are movieclips with butttons inside. When you rollover the mc, the button extends. All the mc are in main scence in separate layers. I need to bring the mc i hover to the front.
Can you show me an example of a very easy implementation in AS2 (action script 2.0) to bring a var from a php file. I have a php script who return a value into the var $result when it is executed, how can i use this var on flash?
I have made some images into animated buttons that enlarge on rollover, bring each layer to the front on rollover, I am working in CS3 with actionscript 2
I have a menu set up so that when you rollover a button it brings an image to the top that corresponds with that button. This is currently set up by using swap depths. The problem is that I want the layer to fade to the top instead of just popping to the top. I turned the layers into MCs and put fades inside the MCs and that works with the code to bring the layer to the top and fade in. But when it does come to the top and fade in, it's deleting whatever layer was previously on top rather then fading overtop of it, so when the new layer comes to the top, you can see the very bottom layer is it fades in...
I have two .fla files. I would like to bring one of them into the other as a scene. I copy and paste frames into the new scene..... but there are a bunch of .wav files that don't come over with it. What is the proper way of merging two .fla files?
i have 7 buttons inside an MC in a row next each other, when the mouse rollover each of it zooms 20%. Now the problem starts when the button you're hoving over is zoomed, the button next to it cuts into the image. in the order they where inserted I want the button you're zooming over to always display as the top layer - bring to front -.
i read of a code:
btn.swapDepths(1);
to change the depth of the movie clip
and:
trace(btn.getDepth());
to get the initial depth of the button putting it at a higher or lower depth than the other buttons will either place the button behind or in front of the other buttons ...play around with depths untill you figure it out.
I've a movieclip that contains two buttons. Buttons have a border appearing on roll over.The problem is that the border (which are fairly large highlights for both buttons) overlaps one of the button.What I want to do it that when one of the button is rolled over its index is set to a higher number than the other button and then back to normal upon roll out.
I have a wipe transition of a photo, and underneath that, another photo. So that when the MC is run, what the viewer sees is the underlying scene photo progressively (but quickly) being wiped over by the gradual revelation of a another pict. Now I want to programmatically move the underlying ("wiped over") layer to the top. The underlying scene photo occupies the lower layer. I've tried turning the wipe collection of mask and photo for one layer into one symbol, and the other pict scene into another symbol. But for the life of me I don't understand how the code for each goes into the layer tree. Or whether scoping out the symbols as I've postulated is even the right way to proceed.
The board doesn't allow for the ability to post the (f-) file, so there's no way I can ask if anyone can show me how to weave the code into the Timeline area. Also I'd like to direct the program to bring the lower layer to the top under certain conditions. There are no examples anywhere for how to programmatically do this for CS4. There was a CS3 way to do like this (this is a mouse rollover sample):
What's the best way to bring in an image with transparency in Flash CS4?I have a logo in Photoshop that looks great on a black background. But when I bring it in as a GIF or PNG in Flash, the edges get really jagged.Is there a preferred way to import this so the edges are smooth?
i've been receiving a ton of help here and love it but Im having a really bad time fixing this one part of an infographic im making. i need to do the following in a flash cs4/as2.0 file:
1.) make all boxes draggable on the stage
2.) on click/hover bring layer to the front.
var city_arr:Array = new Array(THIS CONTAINS A LIST OF ALL MY CITIES I AM USING AS MY NAMING CONVENTION);
I have a movieclip (jobImage) which I'm loading an image (Image1, a subnode of Job1) into using XML. But I want to be able to click on any one of a series of buttons which will have that image replaced by a new image (eg. Button2 will load Image2, another subnode of Job1, Button3 will load Image3, etc.).So I have the selected button pass a number back to a variable called "_root.imageTarget". If Button2 was pressed, this would happen: _root. imageTarget = "2";This variable is then combined with the word "Image" to form a new variable (newImage)[code]
