ActionScript 3.0 :: Playing A Timeline Tween Instead Of The MC?
Jun 27, 2009
I've come to the end of my rope at this point in my AS learning, and was seeking some opinions on how to achieve this.
I am attempting to play a motion tween animation which I have applied to a movieclip that exists in the main timeline.
Coding it like this does not result in errors, but instead of playing the motion tween that I have set up, each MC plays the MC animation instead of the tween animation in the main timeline.

banana1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, bananaBig);
banana2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, bananaBig2);

I will just try my best to explain my document, I have a movie with 4 different content pages on the same layer I have buttons to take you to each page when clicked. Once clicked the content holder has a scale tween that scales to 0 then to full size to create like a box in and out effect with the text content appearing using Alpha once the content box is full size. The box out effect happens after the content has been visible and I would like it to be the in-between effect between the different content pages. So I guess I am asking how to continue playing the rest of the tween then goto and play the next relevant page after the button click at the moment my code is navigating but missing the last part of the tween as I am not sure on how to get it to play to the end of the tween then carry on from that frame to the beginning of the next content page.

I am currently creating a menu system for a site, that when hovered over expands from a short strip into the larger menu containing buttons/graphics etc. To reduce the number of frames used within the site, i am trying to achieve this method using the tween class / onMotionFinished action as opposed to having a movieclip which plays through when hovered over. However if you move the mouse off before the "loading in" animation is complete, it begins the "reverse" animation and seperate titles both appear on top of eachother.
Basically i need to stop the tweens from playing, should the user hover away before they are complete, like a movieclip would "rewind" if you were using that well documented method. Below is the script, and I have attached the .fla for you to have a look at.

I created a classic tween on the timeline (not with actionscript), which moves a movieclip. If I change any property of that movieclip from actionscript, that layer stops updating, even if I change the value to its initial value. Can I access that tween on the timeline from actionscript?

I've just posted a reply in the ActionScript3 Forum as someone else has had the same problem, but I can't find a solution so posting again here as it's taken me about 5 hours of getting nowhere and I'm sure this is really easy... have one frame on my time line called "theatre" and another called "Video" the buttons between the two work but the video continues to play in the background when I go back to the "theatre" frame on the same time line and I can't find a stop function that will work A button on my main page links to Video on the timeline with following AS3
btnVid.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickbtnVid);
function clickbtnVid(event:Event) :void {
gotoAndStop("Video");

The site has 6 pages: home, contents, contact, about, showreel, corporate. I have a panoramic photograph as a background across all my pages. When a button,such as contact, is clicked the timeline is enabled and scrolls across the panoramic to the 'contact' area of the photograph.I have a few questions relating to how I can achieve this. 1.) On my actions layer I have this code on frame one: stop(); enter_site_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonCLicked); function buttonClicked (event:MouseEvent):void { play(); } So when you mouseClick the timeline plays and goes to the next stop point on the timeline which is the contents section. On the contents page are the buttons which lead to the other sections. So far I have this code: stop(); about.btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked) corporate.btn.addEventListener
(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked) showreel.btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked) contact.btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCLicked)
Each of the buttons work, but I want the timeline to play and go to the page which corresponds to the button which is clicked, not just to play the timeline until the next stop point. Is there a code which would enable the timeline to play and go to the correct section, and not just roll without a target? 2.) I also want to be able to write a code which enables the timeline to move to any section in the same amount of time. What I mean by this is that if it takes 2 seconds (48 frames) to go from the first section to the second section, I also want it to take 2 seconds to go from the second section to the sixth section (240 frames)

I may not have the correct terminology and such, but I have a simple symbol that plays, and then I have a timeline within that symbol that I want to play right after that. I named the embedded timeline/frame "trailer" so I used the action
gotoAndPlay("trailer");
this works if the named frame is in the main timeline, but it doesn't seem to be able to access the timeline within the symbol. Is there a different command I could use? Or am I doing something wrong?

I'm using Flash 8 with AS 2.0 to animate the following: [URL] The page movement is done with tweens on the timeline. It works perfectly (is smooth) on my Mac and, for the most part, on my PC. But I'm getting feedback there is a "hitch" or some choppiness happening on other browsers. When the page slides from right to left it pauses just before the end then continues on. The glitch is inconsistent which makes me wonder if it could be a connection speed issue or a function of how the user is clicking the buttons.
It is a heavy file -- once the issue is resolved I plan to load the images only when that link is clicked (I hate preloaders so would rather avoid). But could the heaviness be contributing to the chop?

I'm just learning the software and haven't been able to figure this out. I'm trying to create an historic timeline for our company and am using 20 jpg images, which I placed on separate layers and then converted each jpg to a symbol and motion tweened to go across the screen. The problem is that there is a gap between the frames when they play as a movie and I don't know how to get rid of that so that they flow continuously across the screen from left to right seamlessly.

i made a movie clip with a motion tween wich i added to my stage with actionscript code (with the addChild() property). In het handeling code of the movieclip i put a stop so the motion tween won't play on startup. But how can i start and stop this animation with actionscript code without having to add the movieclip to my timeline?

I'm having trouble using a scrollRect on an object instance on the timeline that has a motion tween. As soon as I apply the scrollRect to it, the object just stops! I've attached a simple fla that shows what I'm talking about.
Simply comment out this line in the first frame's actions to see the oval move across:
Code:
oval1.scrollRect = window;
The actual application I'm making is using a scrollRect on a custom list control, where each item in the list is a symbol in the library. It works great, except if I try to move my list around using a motion tween (the list still works, but the list doesn't move in the motion tween). As soon as I remove the code to apply the scrollRect, it works but the list fills the screen!

I'm making a mini-game, so ive got various scenes and stuff going on. I found this rain effect [url]... and it works fine and looks pretty good, the problem is I don't know how to get the damn thing to stop! I'm a beginner so know very little actionscript and can't figure this out myself. I do not want the timeline to stop playing only for the rain to stop.

I'm currently working on a project where I mix animation sequences with short videos. My project also has two scenes and the FLV will be placed on the main time line of the second scene. The problem I am having is, if the movie is previewed from the first scene, or exported, the FLV on scene 2 won't load. the timeline on the playhead will just spin. I'm currently using "Load external video with playback component" as the method for importing the flv file.I have already worked with this video multiple times in other flash files and have never had a problem loading the video. Is there a limitation to FLV playback in multiple scene movies?

I've run into a bit of a problem using Adobe's CS3 flash program in terms of lip syncing... I can place the sound files in the timeline at whichever point I like and so forth, but I have no way to play them in such a way where I can adequately make lip syncs. It's hard to explain, but in flash MX I would merely click the timeline, drag the cursor along it, and it would play the sounds as it did the frames, one piece at a time. That way I could tell where the consonants were and therefore where to change my characters' lips. This is not the same as simply hitting "enter" and letting the sound play in its entirety.

I have a movie clip on my timeline and it has maybe 60 frames in it. There's enough space for it to play and loop, and when I press ctrl enter to preview it, it plays as expected. However, as I scrub through my animation, the only things that play are the motion tweens I made. The movie clip just stays stuck on the first frame. I was curious so I exported it as is right now and it goes through the frames correctly there too. However, this is fustrating because I want to see the movie clip cycle through it's frames when I scrub through my timeline!

I'm trying to play the timeline forward or backwards by either pressing and dragging left or pressing and dragging right. I can't figure this out.
I have been using instances of buttons to do this but I don't want to use buttons I just want to be able to press anywhere on the screen and weather I drag left or right the movie plays, if I stop pressing the movie stops playing on its current frame.
