ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop And Play All Child MovieClips In Flash With It?
Apr 13, 2012
I am stuck with the ActionScript here. I have a very complex animated flash movie for eLearning. These contain around 10 to 15 frames. In each frame I am having multiple movie clip symbols. The animation has been created using a blend of scripting and also normal flash animation.Now I want to create pause and play functionality for the entire movie. I was able to create the pause function but when i try to play the movie it behaves very strange. [code]...

so i need to make a play/pause button on my animation, i can use stop(); to stop the main timeline. i cna use intro.stop(); to stop a movieclip with the instance name intro that is placed on my timeline.
but can I stop every single movieclip (in all different levels) that are in my timeline?

I have a bunch of copies of the same MovieClip that are dynamically created I want them to be stopped when the swf first starts.When I click on one of them I want that particular one to play.I think that I've figured out how to play a single MovieClip with event.currentTarget.play(); but I am stuck on how to stop all the clips from the start.I thought I could just use a instanceName.stop(); in my for loop, but no go.[code]I'm an artist working on a piece where I am cataloging sound recordings from people (eventually recorded live from the site... but that's a battle that I'll deal with in phase 2 and after I have a bit more actionScripting under my belt).I just wanted to explain myself a bit since Kglad, Ned, and dmennenoh have helped me a bunch through the development of the project.If your interested you can check out some of my works on my website.I know,I need to update the site, but its more fun to work on new projects.

I m trying to make sense of how to load a swf into a parent MovieClip and allow them to communicate.I ve attached two zip files � one which works fine and the other doesn�t. Unfortunately (for me), the one which doesn�t work is closer to my current project.I need to load movieclips into the parent movieclip. The parent movieclip has controls which rely on values parsed from the child movieclip.In the parent movieclips I wait until the loading is complete and so the values should be passed. However, the values aren�t passed unless I use a button (or timer), to pass the values (see the working exampes).The code which doesn�t work is:
Parent movieclip:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code].............

So I am using this code to embed my .swf file. I am creating classes for each asset in my library.
[Embed('assets/assets.swf', symbol='game.menu.levels')]
public static const LEVELS_MENU:Class;
It works just fine but how can I access a child element multiple depths down?

Looking for a way to stop all movieclips both are the stage and that are children of the ones on the stage.
I toyed with looping thru stage's children so I can first target clips on the stage. But I am getting error.
for (var i:int = 0; i < this.numChildren; i++) if (this.getChildAt(i) is MovieClip)
{
this.getChildAt(i).stop
}}

Is there an easy way to switch out a movieClip for another dynamically loaded movieClip?
I have and eventListener onCLICK that when selected it starts an FLVPlayback but I would also like to swap out with another movieClip Play Now / Now Playing button.
Just some background. I am looping and loading a play button jpg's into one movie clip and assigning an incremental number as a name to the play button movie clip. On Click that play button plays a movie but now I would also like to switch the play button graphic to a playing now graphic.
//ADD EVENT LISTENER TO ALL MY THUMBS_BUTTON
thumbs_button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playVideoThumb);
for (var i:Number = 0; i < my_total; i++) {

I just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.

Is it possible to play and stop a number of frames later, without using stop() in the frames? Like when I click a button frame 20 will start playing and it stops 30 frames later, all defined by the actions of the button..

I have created two buttons for separate audio files. Essentially if you click on the button it will play and stop. This works great! I have also injected a SoundMixer.stopAll(); to ensure if you click between both buttons that it will stop the current audio file to play the next one. My problem is when I select the 2nd button for the first time everything seems to be working...it's when I attempt to click on the first button again, that it will require 2 clicks and then it stops and plays accordingly...anyone know how I could eliminate this annoying two click process?

I want a movie clip (let's call it homecontent_MC) with 100 frames play to frame 80 and stop.Then when someone clicks a button on the navigation bar (home, about, services, contact, etc...) homecontent_MC would then begin playing from it's position (frame 80) til it reaches 100, at which point it wouldn't be on screen, and the movie clip that corresponds to the navigation button press (say services_MC...) would start from frame 1 and continue til it stops at it's frame 80...

I am still new to flash and creating button which allows you to click a button to go to that slide. And also have the flash to automatically play/stop. The slideshow will go to the next slide when you click on the picture, but I am in the dark. The flash uses xml to load the picture and I am having a hard time trying to grasp understanding xml.

I have modified the original to include more head shots accompanied by audio clips. I have worked out the playing of the clips on release. I realize now that people may not want to listen to entire clip. Each mug shot serves as the button to hear the person talk. I do not know how to modify the button code for it to be a toggle. I guess it would need to be some kind of "play if, stop if" The only part of concern is loading playing the the audio, no changes need to be made to the rollover functionality.
mugWidth = 60; //change these if you change the size of your mugshots
mugHeight = 60; //change to your mugshot height
//instantiate sound and textformat classes

This is my code:

var xmlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("content.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader (xmlRequest);

I would want to use the frameScript method to add some stop and play methods to some frames.Normally I would declare the stop function:
HTML Code:
private function $FUN_FrameStop():void { stop(); return; }
and then use it like this:
Code:
addFrameScript(47, $FUN_FrameStop, 122, $FUN_FrameStop);
My question is, how can I create the same $FUN_FrameStop as a static function?
Static functions do not allow the use of this since static members are bound to a class and are not inherited by that class' instances. So, is there a way to create a function similar to $FUN_FrameStop, but static?

I'm putting an swf on a website and it's working great except for IE. (Although it works great in IE 9). In some versions of IE it will start to play then stop as if the video was never load and in others it will just go white. It works great in other browsers, just our favorite browser IE seems to screw it up (big surprise).

I have added some three sound clips, play pause buttons, on the root timeline in a movie with corresponding callouts. I am able to stop all sounds on the main timeline by below
stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopSound);
function stopSound(event:MouseEvent) {
SoundMixer.stopAll();
}
But now how do I resume all the sound to play. In sort, mute unmute root sounds in AS3.

Just a minute ago my .fla file can be played. But after several minute when I added movie clips and animations. It just crashed down I guess, Adobe Flash CS3 stop working. I'm using Microsoft Vista operating system. I have an antivirus subscription which is McAfee with automatic update. I think it's a virus or what? I dunno what to do. I got a long way already with my animation on my file. When I will start from the very beginning it would be a mess and it will consumed a lot of time.Four to five attempts of testing the movie:
error msg: Adobe Flash CS3 stop working.
After several minute, test the movie again:
error msg: Flash CS3 memory overload, I dont know the exact error message.
I inspect the microsoft dialog and views the problem, it says APPCRASH, Flash.exe and has several .dll and other components did not load.

I have a movieClip within another MovieClip. I gave the child movieClip the instance name "hSprite" and I added it to the parent movieClip stage. Now I get an error like the following.
[Fault] exception, information=ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property hSprite on com.objects.Hero. If I remove the instance name from the child movieclip, then the error goes away. but when I add the instance name back, the error reappears again.
Keep in mind that both classes are set for export. The parent class is embeded by a custom class which work perfectly fine. But the minute I give the child movieClip a instance name, the error starts up again.

I'm trying to build a simple mask with 2 children mcs. The masking is almost working, but the two children only mask where they don't overlap. I've tried using a mask layer and using code, and it's the same effect either way.
Below is the code:
import caurina.transitions.*
sticker.mask = noteMask_mc;
Tweener.addTween(noteMask_mc.mask_1, {y:-540, scaleX:2.5, scaleY:2.5, time:10, transition:"easeIn"});
Tweener.addTween(noteMask_mc.mask_2, {x:255, scaleX:2.5, scaleY:2.5, time:10, transition:"easeIn"});

When you make a simple game that maybe has a few different 'screens' like start, help, and high score, and a few levels, and you don't wish to load from external swf's. What is the best practice for making these games as far as the timeline?To just have ONE frame that add's and removes child movieclips from the stage?
