ActionScript 3.0 :: Small Banner With Text To Slides Across Stage?
Dec 7, 2010
I am making a small banner that is populated with text, and slides across the stage. There are 3 attributes in the xml:
One for the message to be displayed
One for the link and one for the target (window).
All works very well...except for one thing. In AS2 I was able to replace a link if I needed,
with a asFunction in order to trigger a function in the main timeline. This bit isn't working. So asFunction was replaced with a text event, tho this won't work for me here, I think...
This is my xml:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<messagelist>
<message myURL="asFunctiom:this.parent.btn1Click_xml" myTarget="function" myMessage="Buy me, buy me now, damnit! 0" />
<message myURL="asFunctiom:this.parent.btn2Click_xml" myTarget="function" myMessage="Oh horsefeathers, you still there? 1" />

I am trying to make an animated flash banner in which a graphic slides across a 774 by 100 px stage which stops after playing once and repeats on mouse over.
I have managed to make the animation repeat on mouse over, but when it does, the graphic only slides to the point on the stage that the mouse moved over.
I have also tried this with a mouse out which works fine but is not quite what I was trying to achieve.
ban.mouseChildren = false;
ban.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, banOut);
ban.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, banOver);

It's pretty common on many Architectural and Engineering sites to have a small movie on the home page. For example: URL... I've made similar movies for my websites using flash, and there always seems to be a lag and an image icon while the movie to loads. Here is a site where the movie loads unnoticeably: hensonarchitect com. Is there a way to use flash and have the movie load without an image icon placeholder? The flash movie that I have in mind is only 90kb, so a preloader isn't needed.

I have 2 movie clips, one names mc_frame01 and another mc_frame02. I've tried to set variables and arguments to make it easier when theres more mc_frameXX's. All I want the animation to do is first MC slides in from the right, pauses, then slides off to the left. Then repeat for each MC. With the code below, both MC's seem to slide in from the right at the same time and that's it.

I'm making a presentation and want to make the text of the slides appear on command.This is what I wrote on the actions layer.
1.) First frame
bg_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playSlide);
bg_mc.buttonMode = true;
function playSlide(event:Event):void[code]........
On the actions layer there's a stop "stop();" before each new layer starts. But it doesn't work. I tried to paste the code in any order but still nothing. I works on a sample fla file I got.

I'm trying to send small gradient circles across the stage and they somehow disappear around x 515. If I increase the size the problem goes away ( though increasing the size to 2px only make them go another 100 px x before disappearing). The problem does not exist with non gradient circles.Here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
package com.xxx.classes {
import flash.display.Sprite;

I have been trying to make a score counter for a small game where the user clicks on a button on the stage, each time the user presses the button the score increments by 10, however I cannot get the score to display on the dynamic text field.
var score:uint;
//scoreCounter is the instance name of the dynamic text box
function updateScore():void{
score += 10;
scoreCounter.text = score.toString();
}

I found a simple and effective text scroller in your tutorial archive by Billy T -[URL] The internal as was just what I was after except I would like the dragger bar to be on the left instead of the right. I've changed x's to y's and added co ords for left positioning but I've had no response. I feel there could be a very simple answer to this one.

I am currently trying to figure out how to have an editable small text box.
The text box will have a default value of lets say "default 1", but will be able to be overided when its compiled to, lets say "Layer 1". Is this possible at runtime? Basically I want to achieve the same goal as just like renaming a layer within flash.

im trying to do a simple calculation and display it in a dynamic text box however when I use small numbers the dynamic text box displays NaN.
PHP Code:
lambdas = rk / lp;
lambdas.toString();
test_txt.text = String(lambdas);
lambdas is is the variable i am trying to display in the dynamic text box (instance name is test_txt). rk and lp are input text numbers. I am trying to use rk = 0.05 and lp = 0.2. 0.25 should be displayed in the box

I'm a total beginner at ActionScript, and I'm running into a big problem with a Flash banner I'm writing. The problem is that my Stage width and height appear to be much smaller than the width and height specified in my <object> and <embed> tags of the HTML. My goal is to get the Stage width and height to be equal to the <object> and <embed> width and height, so that I can make commercial banners with full-size backgrounds.
The width x height specified in the <object> and <embed> tags is 400 x 300. To force the Stage to be 400 x 300, I've added a 400 x 300 TextField as a child of my main Sprite object. As a diagnostic, I even printed the Stage's width and height as part of the TextField text content -- which confirmed that the Stage thinks it's at 400 x 300. I've tried different things to get it to work. I've tried playing around with the Stage's scaleMode property, using all the possible different values, but still the problem persists. Still, when viewed on the web page, the width and height of the Stage appears much smaller than the <object> and/or <embed> tags which contains the Flash content area. I know this because I'm using colored backgrounds as a diagnostic.

I'm trying to make a banner with a small game where you control a trash can, and you try to catch some trash falling down the stage. Also I got a dynamic text field on my stage called "tekst", where I want my counter to be shown. At last I'm trying to make a if sentence saying that if etc. counter<10 go to url. When I run it now, the trash is moving all right, but I can't get the hitTestObject to work, its saying that hitTestObject is not a function? How to export my counter to the text field on the stage.
Code:
Mouse.hide();
var trash:trashcan = new trashcan;
var banan:Array = new Array();
var cskod:Array = new Array();
var velocity:Array = new Array();
var counter:int = new int();

Using Flash CS4 trial I am trying to make a banner on one time line.I have 6 photos on one time line with a right to left motion tween, and I would like it to repeat it without the white space of the stage appearing inbetween instances.I have tried it with two time lines also, but to no avail.Basically I would like it to repeat picture 1 again from the right side of the stage directly after picture 6 has left the left hand side of the stage without white space.
Also have problems selecting the bez curve, to drag a motion, so far I find if I create a key frame at the end of the timeline and click a couple of times on the mouse (not consistant) then hold the left mouse button down for a few seconds it some times turns the white circle green, then I can move it? but as I said not very consistant.

best way to read in like 200k words and have them each tween from the center of the screen as small dots and tween up to the word filling the SWF then "fly through my head" not literally, but you probably get it...

I need to create a Flash banner. Fairly straight-forward in terms of looks - a long list of services that scrolls from right to left and then loops continuously.
I'm using Flash MX 2004. So far I've created the text - it comes on from the right and leaves on the left. The problem I've got however is how to make this a continuous, seamless loop. When it goes off on the left I can't figure out how to make it come back on from the right.

I have this banner that needs to have a several rows worth of paragraph text animate horizontally through it. Ideally, the text should also be possible to update from outside of flash. As for the scrolling text, working with that much text as one long row of letters doesn't seem feasible, so I'm wondering is there a standard way in Flash CS5 of working with large amounts of animated text? Not the user editable kind like text fields and such, but presentational text.
Obviously it's not efficient to have one long string of text that extends several screens beyond the display, as is the case now. Editing just one letter can take several seconds of scrolling as the string is currently over 3000 px wide, and it's not even all the text that's going to be in the final animation. It'd be great if it was possible to type that text through some web based cms, and have it automatically transferred to the Flash banner,

Actually, I'm HTML-coder, so I've recently confronted by difficulties with Flash. Its making the text banner. Flash needs to get variables from the following 'vars.htm' file:
myVar01=the_first_textDDDsecond_textDDDand_surely_ the_third_text&myVar02=DDD&myVar03=3
Where 'myVar01' contains the text, 'myVar02' is the text delimiter's look and 'myVar03' is the showing delay of texts. In truth, I've never seen the ActionScript before.
So, what I've done regarding that all:
ActionScript Code:
var data_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
data_lv.load("vars.htm");
data_lv.onLoad = function() {
[Code] .....
The problem is, the 'trace' shows me correct array looping but in Flash I see there's only one passage through the 'texts' array. But I need the infinite looping in Flash movie, instead of one.

I've made a few sites a few years ago with flash CS3/AS2 and using the TextArea as an output for xml content. that really sucked and looked terrible as it flashed white everytime it was loading (especially on slow connections). so I don't want to go that route again.sir!ok, so I have a banner that has 3 text elements per page (with various graphics per page behind the text) ...all text needs to be live as it is fed by 3 different languages. (referably the image link too)1. consistant big title across 8 pages2. sub-title that changes per page3. paragraph of text per sub-title4. the background imageEach of the 8 "slides" lasts about 6 seconds each (this part im fine with and sorted in AS2...but not AS3). On the top left are 8 numbered buttons that a user can click on to view whichever "slide" they may have missed or whatever. (this part i'm ok with....just the external text and formating are the issue)how would i go about setting this up via dynamic text with either XML or PHP in CS4/AS3? (using dynamic text fields, but so its nicely formated).
