ActionScript 3.0 :: Slideshow With A Delay Of For Example 3 Seconds, And A Preloader Which Is A Line With A 100px Final Length?

Oct 17, 2010

i have a slideshow with a delay of for example 3 seconds, and a preloader which is a line with a 100px final length.i start preloading next image.now if the time until next image loads is longer than slideshow delay, i will show next image as soon as it loads.if the time until next image loads is shorter that than slideshow delay, i want to wait additional time until delay and then show the image.the problem is how do i represent smooth line width grow (being enter frame or tween) by calculating/comparing 2 values together (delay and loader percent, which goes from 0 - 100) ?if my line growth represent just a slideshow delay, then when it gets to an end, if next image still hasnt loaded, then it wont look good if line has come to an end, but i still have to wait.

Professional :: Controlling The Length Of Transition In Seconds And Having It Take Up One Frame?

Apr 4, 2011

I just joined this Adobe Forums, and I am new to action script 3.0, I am working on a couple of lessons and I would like to be able to shorten the number of frames they take up on the timeline by setting the time the transition takes in seconds in my action script, and limiting each to a single frame so that my timeline can be organized and easy to work with.SO I set the seconds to 10 seconds, and kept each on a single key frame BUT THE PROBLEM is that the transition only plays as a single frame and cuts off and then moves to the next frame and so on

ActionScript 2.0 :: Delay In Slider Bar Functionality So Value Change Slowly

Apr 30, 2009

I have created a slider bar using AS2, when I say slider bar I mean similar to what you would find on a mixing desk in a music studio, i.e. you 'slide' the button up and down, changing the value associated with it. My slider bar changes a value that is written on the screen, i.e. it goes from 0 to 100 as you slide the button up. Now I want to change this so that when you slide the button the value starts to slowly change, and eventually reaches the value you've pushed the button to but after you've finished moving the button. Not sure that makes sense! To put it another way: if it takes you half a second to move the slide button from the bottom to the top, it will take 10 seconds for the value associated with it to reach 100.

Below are the relevant bits of code:
This starts the slider action when the button is pressed:
Code:
function onPress() {
this.startDrag(false, sliderMin, 515, sliderMax, 515);
}

This determines the displayed value from the slider bar position. Obviously right now the value changes instantly when you move the slider button
Code:
function onMouseMove() {
_root.powerGraph.totalPower = Math.round((_root.startMenu.coal1Slider._x - sliderMin) / (sliderMax - sliderMin) * 100);
}

This is used to display the value:
Code:
function onEnterFrame() {
this.createTextField("outputPower", _root.startMenu.getNextHighestDepth(), 130, -20, 190, 101); .....

This stops the button movement:
Code:
function onRelease() {
this.stopDrag();
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Delay A Function Until Frame Is Reached?

Feb 2, 2010

I'll try express this as easily as I can: I have an input text box (call the instance whatever you want). What it does is when you type a word, it makes another movie clip (let's say the instance is MORPH) go to a certain frame. The code is simple, but I'll give it to you to give you a better idea:

[Code].....

check is just a light that turns green if the word is complete, so ignore that. Whenever the MORPH object goes to, say "Earth", it plays an animation and afterwards, it hit's a gotoAndStop(1); code, stopping it at the first frame. What the problem is, say, you type earth, it goes to the EARTH animation, but before the animation finishes and goes back, you type EARTH again and it skips straight to the start of the animation. It looks very rough and bad.

What I want is, say I type Earth and the animation plays, and before it finishes the animation, and I type EARTH again, it waits until morph get's back to frame 1. So yeah, to delay a function until a certain frame is reached. Oh, and another thing. Is there a way to make a button click with AS2? Pretty much when it makes contact with another object, it... clicks (whatever it does to reach the DOWN frame and stay there until the other object moves off).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Delay 10 Seconds On Every Frame

Nov 9, 2011

I have 40 frames on a timeline, each frame has an tweening script below:

Code below:
stop();

stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onStopClick, false, 0, true);
start_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onPlayClick, false, 0, true);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Exporting Library Assets To Frame One Causes Delay

Apr 20, 2010

I have several small movie clips saved in the library of myCS4 Flash.fla file, I want to make them available to dynamically add to the display list as children, based on the button clicks of the viewer. I can get it all to work fine via Symbol Properties > Linkage > Export for Actionscript. When the movie clips are set to "export for actionscript" from the Library, playback seems to hang on frame 1 until all of these exported assets have downloaded.

The big problem is that I have an ultra-simple but totally custom preloader/progress animation coded in a loop in the second and third frames, which kicks out to frame 4 and continues playback as soon as the download is complete. Because of this, the preloader has essentially become useless - because all that can be seen is several seconds of empty stage, until the vast majority of the bulky assets have downloaded. Then the preloader flashes onstage for just an instant, and disappears because the content is already up.

So, my questions are:
A) Is there a SIMPLE alternate method to load these library assets in such a way that it doesn't cause this major lag on frame 1?
B) Failing that, I suspect I may have to retool my preloader to run as an ENTER_FRAME event in frame 1. Is this worth the effort (can this potentially resolve the lag issue and allow for a meaningful preload progress animation, despite the lag from the asset export?)

Flex :: Why Change In ArrayCollection's Length Doesn't Invoke Setter On Component Using It As Data Source

Dec 15, 2010

I have a component where I expose the property 'questions' with the following code:

private var _questions:ArrayCollection;
private var questionsChanged:Boolean;
[Bindable("questionsChanged")]

[Code]....

In this component, I use commitProperties() to implement my logic.

I use Cairngorm and the 'questions' is in the model and hence it's defined as a source for data binding.

When the 'questions' ArrayCollection's size changes elsewhere in the application, it is not invoking the setter method in the component that is destination for the data binding.

ActionScript 2.0 :: DELAY Function - Make It Wait Before It The Timeline Goes To The Certain Frame#?

Feb 3, 2009

Okay my_btn will do this;

image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");
gotoAndPlay(frame#);

What i want to do, is, make it wait before it the timeline goes to the certain frame#, so the image_loader1 loads its image1. I'm making it wait, not because it takes time loading (which it would not, since image1 is already on the stage, loaded up in image_loader2) but the image still takes time to show on the image_loader1 (half a second).So, I want my_btn to be functioned like this that it performs its first action which is

'image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");' and then 'gotoAndPlay(frame#);'..

Actionscript 3 :: Remove Equally Spaced Elements From An Array With Length Of 'n' To Match A Given Length 'y'?

Mar 9, 2011

Let's say I have array foo and a positive integer y, where foo.length > y.I want to remove elements from foo so that foo.length becomes y (or very close to it).Also, I need to preserve the first and last element of foo. The indices of the removed elements must be spaced apart as equally as possible. Foo can be sliced, or it can be used to create a new array.

Example: if foo = [a,b,c,d,e,f,g,1,2,3,4,5] and y = 6, then trimmedfoo could be [a,c,e,g,2,4,5] or maybe [a,c,e,2,4,5], but not [a,c,e,g,2,4] because the last element of foo is missing.

ActionScript 3.0 :: TimerEvent Only Works Once?

Dec 3, 2010

I can only run a timer.start(); command once, the second time it will only run once instead of the value of 10 repeat.

Code:
var addTenPointsTimer:Timer=new Timer(500, 10);
var currentScore = 0;
score.text = "0";

[code]........

I want to be able to have the score add the ten points one at a time rather than all at once. It works fine the first time ten points are added, but the second, third, fourth, etc time it only adds one point then stops. How can I get the timer to work more than once?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using TimerEvent In While Loop

When I test the movie and click the button, the frames don't seem to change.
