ActionScript 3.0 :: When Nested MovieClip Ends Goto Next Frame
Feb 14, 2010
I am using flash cs3 and I have a series of quotes that fade in and out. I have a movie clip that does the fading in and out and then nested in there I have the quotes.
fadeInOut1_mc (is the instance of the fading in and out)
quotes1_mc (is the instance of the timeline of quotes nested in the above movie clip)
When the quotes end I would like the main timeline in Scene 1 to move to the next frame and play.
fadeInOut1_mc is in the timeline of Scene 1
If I could do that I think I'd be off to the races, but I'm stuck on it.

When you click a button I want my flash to go to the frame label where the movie clip is located, and then play a certain frame of that movie clip.

In cs5.5, I have a frame with a movie clip on it. When a user clicks a button, I want the movie clip to stop and the user to be directed to another frame. It is correctly redirecting to a different frame, however, the movie clip is still on the stage and playing. How can I modify the following code to make it not just go to a different frame, but also stop the movie clip that is on that frame from playing?
btn_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(10);
}

What is the actionscript if i want to go to a frame in a movie clip from another movieclip? And also for future reference, how do you go to a frame from a movieclip/button to a frame in the main scene? Is it something to do with root?

What im trying to do is play a movie clip between frames. So say we have two menus, when you are on menu 1 and you click the button for menu 2, a short movie clip plays and then you stop on menu 2. I realise I can do this by putting the movie clip on the main scene timeline, but is there anyway i can put it on the button? I think the action script would be something along the lines of "On release play MovieClip and goto frame X" As i said i want the movie to play as an almost filmic transition between menus, with a fade up and then out (Have got that bit sussed using the alpha controls)

I always face this problem when coding with flash, and still not able to get a solution for this problem....
if the nested mc is in the 1st frame then I can use: Level1_mc.Level2_mc.Level23_mc.gotoAndStop("2");
If refering nested btn I will use: MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop("2");
so my question is, how about refering an mc from main timeline into nested mc but different frame( frame 4,5 or 6....)?

I've got a play and stop buttons on the stage which are controlling some 3 nested MovieClips, It controlls Well the MovieClip which is located on the first frame, but when I want to stop/play the other two MC's (frames 2 & 3) I get the following error -
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at jukebox_fla::MainTimeline/playMP3()
I know the problem is that I just can't control any other Nested Instances of a MovieClip Unless it is located on it's First frame. How can I stop/play the other 2 MC's (Frames 2 & 3) by coding from the main stage?

On my main timeline, I have a movieclip called "mainpage". Within "mainpage", I have a button that when clicked upon, needs to go back to the main timeline, into another movieclip, and to a specific frame in that movieclip. The code I've been using for all my other buttons is this:
Code: Select allfunction goAdler (e:MouseEvent):void{
MovieClip(parent.parent).gotoAndStop("adler");
}
adler_proj_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goAdler);
In that particular case, the button is going up to the parent movieclip of it's parent to a specific frame label.The problem I'm having is that I need for this button within "mainpage", rapp_proj_btn, to go to the main timeline, go into a movieclip a few frames down called "portfolio_content" (on a frame labelled "Portfolio"), and to a frame labelled "rapp". No matter what I've tried, I can't seem to target the "portfolio_content" movieclip, even though I've put the instance name on it and everything. I can, using the code below, get the rapp_proj_btn to go to "Portfolio", but I can't get inside that "portfolio_content" movieclip that sits on that frame.
This is the code I use to get to the proper frame:
Code: Select allfunction goRapp (e:MouseEvent):void{
MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("Portfolio");
}
rapp_proj_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goRapp);
I tend to get an error describing not being able to get to an undefined property called "portfolio_content", and to be honest, in AS3, I'm not exactly sure how to go about fixing that error. I've tried calling the "portfolio_content" instance name in the code (right before gotoAndStop), but it doesn't recognize the movieclip.

I am a first time flash-maker, and I sure how to get things to work as planned.I have written the following code:
stop();import flash.events.MouseEvent;Weightlifting_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, CursorClick);function CursorClick(event:MouseEvent):void{gotoAndStop("25");}
But my problem is that i have a motion tween that startes at frame 5 and ends at frame 25. And the code says that at will go to and stop at frame 25.what I really want it to do, is to go to frame 5, play the motion, and stop at frame 25.

I have an instance of a movie clip that runs and after it runs I want it to call a frame to gotoAndStop back on the main timeline (stage). What is the code for that? When the animation ends, I am simply giving it a stop(); and then I want it to go to the next frame on the main timeline. I think this used to be _root in AS2.

I have two movieclips on the same frame but on different layers located within the movieclip. The first movieclip plays just fine. However, the second one isn't going ahead even a single frame. The code that I have mentioned below is located withing the second movieclip containing background image. And I think this code is causing the issue because when I remove this it plays perfectly fine. The function of this code is to automatically re-size background image with the browser dimensions. The whole code just worked fine on the main timeline.However, when I shifted it inside a movieclip its causing an issue.
//set stage for FBF
stage.align = "TL";
stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

at first, I thought I could manage this myself searching the forums about "preloader" but none of the solutions seem to work. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm using the FLVPlayer with an external file. What am I looking for?
1. Well, the preload code for frame 1 that makes sure the external F4V (movie.f4v in the same dir) is loaded 100% before it jumps to frame 2 where the movie should start playing...
2. If possible, a progress bar.

I'm using Fl for the first time and I'm trying to create a slideshow. Everything was going fine until I realized I had spaced out the different image timelines too far to the right. Now that I've moved them all leftward I have these blank ends that make the slideshow end with a long empty nothing. How do I cut those timelines off to eliminate that dead time?

I have a button that when pressed goes to the next frame of a external swf file loaded into a movie clip. When the last frame of the external swf is reached, I want the button to go to the next frame of the main timeline (which in turn loads another external swf and the process repeats itself over again).
I assume I have to use an if/then statement, but what exactly is the if clause?

I have a character, every body part is a movieclip. Now I wanted to put a movieclip for the eyes inside of the headmovieclip so that I can change them independently from the mouth. So in the eye-movieclip that is inside of the head-movieclip I put two keyframes, one for opened eyes and one for closed eyes. I put it to "Single frame" in properties. Now, whenever I make a pose and I change the frame number under properties so that it displays the closed eyes, it does that for the whole movie, not only on the frames that I changed it.
I wanted to use that to control things like eyes, ears and the mouth individually but like this it won't work, it changes it for the whole animation.

I need to add several copies of a movieclip at random times. When each clip plays out I need it to be removed. What I'm trying is the following:
var list:Array = []
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
function(e:Event){[code]............
The first script is working but the last one is not. How should a movie clip instance remove itself?I'm used to AS2 where it just requires this.removeMovieClip(). I've tried to search for an equivalent in AS3 but can't find

I'd like to remove a MovieClip instance from the main timeline (and do a few other things) once that movie is over.
Scenario: I've got a frog catching a fly with his tongue. Once the frog-tongue movie clip is over, I want to remove both the tongue, and the fly from the timeline. Both the tongue and the fly are MovieClip objects. The tongue animation starts based on a TimerEvent. I'd like to say something like: when the tongue MovieClip ends, call removeChild() on tongue and fly.[code]...

I want to be able to know when a certain movieclip animation ends (Flash MX).For example: The players character shoots an arrow, while the arrow animation is on - the players character can't move when arrow animation ends - the players character is free to move again.
How do I do that?I've tried putting some AS in the last frame of the animation (letting the application know that animation has ended) but once in a while this AS doesn't execute - maybe Flash drops some frames (and that frame among them)?Do I have an event for movieclip ending (Flash MX)?Is the only way is to use timeouts (setInterval)?

So I have a quick movie clip and when that clip finished I want to do the following:
Code:
_root.logo_top.attachMovie("sabotage_media_logo", "sabotage_media_logo_mc", _root.logo_top.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.logo_top.sabotage_media_logo_mc._x = 50;
_root.logo_top.sabotage_media_logo_mc._y = 50;
What do I need to do? I tried doing onClipEvent(load) but it loads it at the start of the clip.

I have 3 frames each with a movie clip called map_mc. Each different map_mc have different objects that call the CollisionDetect class. Heres whats happening. objects from frame 1 will start freaking out when I goto frame 2. How do I remove only the event listeners from objects only on frame 1?
I have been trying this.currentFrame but the problem is that all the objects are inside map_mc on the first frame so no matter what it will always be 1. On the other hand MovieClip(root).currentFrame will always give me the current frame but wont tell me what the objects frame is relative to the stage.What I want to do is have something to this effect:MovieClip(root).this.currentFrame would output that this object is on frame 1 and MovieClip(root).currentFrame will tell me that the stage is on frame 2 so I can remove the listeners accordingly.

I have an problem whereby I have created a Frame by Frame dancing human figure and now I want to move it across the screen as well as scale it using a Tween.
I have spent quite some time slightly adjusting the upper arms, forearms, hands, legs etc and creating a new keyframe for each movement. All the movements are all in one layer... ie the forearm doesn't have it's own layer etc. I am running the animation at 24fps so there is quite bit going on.
I now realise that I should have created a symbol/movie clip from the first image I created and then scaled and moved the image first before animating it's limbs but I only realized that after hours of work and I would hate to start all over again.
So basically what I have is a dancing human figure in the one spot moving it's arms and legs and I want it to move across the screen and become larger by scaling it using a Tween. I could of course re-edit each keyframe by slightly scaling and the slightly moving the figure but that will take quite some time to get right as there will be a fair bit of trial and error doing it that way.
