I'm building a stand alone presentation application (.exe) in Flash CS4, and want to add a print button which prints current frame. Tried to find about that everywhere on internet, but didn't quite found what I need. So when someone clicks the button, I wish to save that image in original size as bitmap or jpeg image. How can I do that?
View 2 RepliesFirst, when i print my movie(properties 760 x 520) it is very small on paper. How can i make it fit the paper?
Second, how can i only print the current frame or what is on the screen from flash?
In my project i need to add a button to print. When i press that button i need to print the current screen(or frame).
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a print button on the last frame that will allow the user to print just that frame. I've tried using the printjob object, but all that I can get to happen is print a blank sheet of paper. Here is the code that I have so far:
function printScore(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
[code].....
I want to print the current page (web page) when user clicks on a button.
View 14 RepliesI have a movie, the movie goes to different possitions depending on what button is clicked, what i want to happen is for the movie to go over the frames in between two points in the event that one possition is skipped. does that make sense?eg. if i had points a b c d in my clip. buttons designated to each point so when i click them they go to that point. if i am currently on point a, and click on c, i want it to play but pass over point b. if on point d, i want it to play backward through c and b. can i define a start a stop point on the timeline? like if the possition = 34 go to and stop at 65. if 65 go to and stop at 2.

View 2 RepliesI need to create a button that when clicked will print out the contents of a movie clip which will be some text and background graphics. Not sure how to go about this, but it should be in AS3.

I've got a button that tells a movie clip to play its animation (goto and play frame 2), but I only want it to play that frame if the current frame is frame 1 - meaning that I don't want people to be able to keep clicking the button while the clip is playing and have the clip restart.
I'm guessing it would be something like:
If ( current frame is frame 1 ) { goto and play frame 2 }
But I can't seem to get it to work.
i want to simply print 2 movieClips when i press a Print button. so i have the "_root.container_mc" and "_root.logo_mc"... paste the simplest code for printing a "landscape" page with these 2?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a print button that will print the contents of a mc...this mc basically holds a dynamically drawn floorplan which can be zoomed and panned...I want to be able to print the contents of the mc, and only what is viewable in the mc at the time of the print...so if you are zoomed in, all that prints are the actual objects visibly seen in the mc...I think it may be with the print command using bmovie but I have no idea how to assign a #b lable to the frame.
View 3 RepliesI have a print function that is supposed to print the current visible view of an mc...the mc contains a map that can be zoomed in on and panned...I want to only view what the mc shows...and I had this function working before...but I have made hundreds of changes to my code, without testing the print function along the way, so I have no idea what I did that may have broken my function..

is there anyway to have a button play frames 5-10 on a movie clip inside the current frame, as well as skipping to...lets say...frame 10 of the scene?
i want to create a site where buttons go to different pages, but those pages have animations in and out.so if someone is in one page, and clicks a button to go to another, that page plays the "out" animation while the other page plays the "in" animation.
how do you set a print button so that it does no show up in the print out?
View 1 RepliesIs there a statement in AS3 that will return current class and/or scope? I'd like to use that in trace statements so that I know the exact location of a trace.
View 2 RepliesI have four movie clips (.f4v) in 4 frames in a movie with watch buttons.. This movie has them been imported into a main movie container that has next and previous buttons. However if i play a movie then hit next frame, the movie continues to play in the background.

View 1 RepliesI have tried this a dozen different ways and I really am at my wits end.
I have a presentation that works like a powerpoint. Everything is working as it should, except one part. I have a movie clip with an instance named slides, and I want to actively display which frame number you are in this move clip.
I have tried more than one why but I see no reason why this should not work:
var frameNum:Number = this.slides.currentFrame;
this.frameText.text = "P�quina " + frameNum + " de 173";
It appears to work at first, but does not update when I navigate the slides. It constantly says 1. Before I just added a function to the back and next buttons to frameNum++ and frameNum--, but after I created the Menu I would prefer it to automatically detect what frame it is on.
I have made a movie using just one symbol. Is there any way in flash cs4 where i can print the position of my symbol in every frame into a text file?
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to grab the current frame number?
View 3 Replieshow can I get the current frame of a MovieClip.It's an animation that just loops over and over when its opened with ctrl+enter.On the stage its just one layer and one frame, but when it's double clicked, it has its own timeline with 20 frames.
Actionscript Code:
//what i had but it shows frame 1trace(myMovieClipInstance.currentFrame);
display the current frame when it changes. So something with a while loop. Like while the movie clip is playing, display the current frame.
I can get this code to work, how far off am I? it is just taking me to the first frame, i want it to take off from the current frame.
on (press) {
oot.gotoAndPlay(_currentframe);
}
How to get the current frame? At first its in the starting frame. What I want to do is when I press Enter gotoAndStop(3); and again pressing enter key and if its in frame 5 gotoAndStop(5); etc. So how to know which frame I'm in at the present moment? One way I did is giving all the keyframes (3, 5, etc) a particular label and check using 'currentLabel == 3 ,..etc'. But is there any way to do it without giving it a label by merely using the keyframe numbers?
View 5 RepliesI am new to actionscript and am working on a product configurator.It has been a very long and frustrating project (to keep my job.)I've searched for days for a solution so I thought I'd try here.I store all the user choices in variables (text and graphic movie frames.)At the end of the user choices, I want a print button to print these choices to their desktop printer.

View 2 RepliesI feel like such an idiot but after trying endlessly I still haven't managed to come up with a way to display the current frame number of nested movie clip ("ecke1") (in a dynamically created text field).The problem really is that I don't know how to have flash keep updating the variable. Here's my latest attempt:
Code:
var frame:int = 0;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,updateframe,false,0,true);

I have labeled my frames in the timeline. Is it possible to retrieve this labels in an onEnterFrame function?
I can use this but it only returns frame numbers:
code:
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
trace('current frame:' + this._currentFrame);
};
Is there a way to get he current frame of a movie clip that is playing? For example I have myClip which is a MovieClip, and the code is myClip.stop(); Is there a way to know which frame myClip stopped on? Such as frame 5 or 10 or so?
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to add a child to the current frame only?
I know you can just remove/hide them, and generate/show them again.
But isn't there an easier way?
What's the sanest way to achieve something along the lines of this.gotoAndStop(this._currentframe)?
What I want is that Flash re-loads the current frame as if I was using gotoAndStop (which does nothing if it is given the current frame as target frame).
