function WebDesignBtnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
_parent:gotoAndStop("Web Design");
}

"Web Design" is the Frame Label which I want to refer too

ActionScript 3.0 :: GotoAndPlay From Inside A MC To The Main Timeline

Aug 15, 2009

I`m a AS2 user, having a few problems getting adjusted to AS 3. What I want to do: In my stage I have 3 movieclips:

- Intro (frame 1)
- Main (2)
- End (3)

In the movieclip Intro i show some pictures etc, when it comes to the end, i want to go to the 2nd frame on the MAIN timeline. This used to be _root.gotoAndPlay("main"); using the hierarchy allways starting from _root or _level0. or _parent... I have tried searching but am not sure how to lookup this problem. I would be really happy if someone could post me a link how to address movieclips through other movieclips or starting from the root in AS3 and for the right code to use the function gotoAndPlay to go 1 frame further in the main timeline.

Control MovieClip Inside Button From Main Timeline

Aug 13, 2011

I have a movieclip inside the OVER on a button, right now I have an animation that causes the button's brightness increases from 0 to 10 over 24 frames and then come stops because of a stop (). I now intend to add an animation after stop () which gets the button's brightness goes back to 0 again when you no longer hold the mouse over the button. I would therefore like to make some kind of mouseOut event that allows Movieclip go to the next frame. I have tried to insert a target path but it seems that it can't reach the movie clip inside the button.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Random Placement Of MC Inside Another MC, Rather Than On Main Timeline

Jul 12, 2002

I need to randomly position identical symbols in a movie - I have found a way I can do it in the main timeline using this code:

n = 10;
while (n>0) {
duplicateMovieClip ("/r1", n, n);
n = n-1;

[Code]....

The problem is that the _x and _y parameters only seem to work in the main timeline, and I need the whole thing to be self-contained inside a movie clip, so that I can easily paste it into other Flash movies (about 75 of them). Is it possible to specify a random location inside a MC?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference MovieClips On The Main Timeline From Inside A Class?

Mar 31, 2010

I've been programming with AS2 for a few years and I just made the switch to AS3. I'm hoping there is an easy solution to this problem. I have a class 'Actor' (extends MovieClip) that needs to hitTestPoint on a nested MovieClip 'root.World.walls' in a function moveRight(). The line of code looks like this: ...while (MovieClip(root).World.walls.hitTestPoint(pnt.x, pnt.y, true)) {... But I keep getting various errors when I try different solutions.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add New MC To The Main Timeline From Inside The Current Movie Clip In Any Event?

Jan 6, 2009

I created an empty MC on the main timeline:

var ribbonMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(ribbonMC);

On the main timeline I have another MC which loads a DataGrid mcomponent.I have a ListEvent.ITEM_CLICK attached the DataGrid.When a row is clicked, I want to replace the ribbonMC clip I created with a different MC.However, no matter what I do I cannot seem to
properly remove the clip and add it to the main timeline in its place.I have tried getChildByName() in order to grab the clip:

var rmc:DisplayObject = getChildByName("ribbonMC"); (I've
tried type MovieClip here too)

But all I seem to get is a null object, so it cannot be unloaded. Even if I did grab it, I cannot seem to figure out how to add my new MC to the main timeline from inside the current movie clip in any event. Since _root is no longer used in AS3.

Flash :: Check And Reset Variable On Main Timeline From Inside A Movieclip?

Feb 11, 2010

I'm converting an old AS2 file into AS3 (and trying to learn AS3 at the same time).A movie clip contains a number of different animated sequences and buttons within the application trigger these different sequences.The buttons are functional only when an animation has completed playing.

In AS2, I achieved this with a var called _root.animating which was initially set to "false" and switched to true when the animation played and switched back to false at the end of the anim sequence. The buttons checked this var when clicked. Here is some of the AS2.[code]...

I've created a movieclip with buttons inside that I want to use to navigate to different scenes on the main timeline. I have created a function() that loads the button movieclip into the main timeline, but if I try to write a function() to activate the button and move the main timeline to a different scene/frame label it doesn't work. I have tried various things:

navBack_mc.book_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop("book1");
}

I put the code above on the main timeline. It doesn't seem to work. Basically, I could put just an on(release) handler on the buttons, but I wanted to try to keeping all the AS in one place if I can.
