I had an odd occurance where a listener was firing when I pressed on another movieclip. Both functions executed, which obviously caused some trouble. I fixed the misfiring listener by creating a new child (panel) and then adding the listener's movieclip to panel.
View 3 RepliesHow to add a listener to a button inside of a movieclip that is in the library?
Example:
Root->work_mc(timeline)->workss_mc(added with Addchild)
There is workss_mc in the library that gets loaded when someone clicks a button inside of work_mc. This is achieved with addChild. Within workss_mc there is a close button to close this. I've run into problems with working the navigation with this b/c I need to declare and create a single instance of workss_mc at a scope where it is visible to both click handlers, Doing this will place both handlers in one location. So in order to do that I would need them all to be where the navigation code is, the root. So how can I access workss_mc from the root?

how do you call an onClipEvent(enterframe) of a movieclip to happen when that movieclip is pressed?

when i type this in i get an error because on events cannot be nested within other on events. how can you get around this?
i am new to flash AS,i have 4 movieclips, those have the 4 option of a question, when i select the answer,if it correct means my score will increase otherwise it will show alert,for that first i have to press the any one movieclip out of 4 options, in AS3.0 addEventHandler will work for AS2.0 what will i use to achive this

in this answer1, answer2,answer3,answer4 are the movieclip for 4 options
I've got an problem with reading out an array, the array is filled with movieclips with each an different picture in it (php variable -an url). Basically what i want to do is get the pressed movieclip and use another method to change the _xscale and _yscale properties of the pressed movieclip (an picture) and then pass it back to the function brillenArray.onEnterFrame to change the values of that movieclip!
Only thing what i now get is that either all of the pictures move or none...
[AS]
brillenArray = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i<5; i++) {
if (this['plaatje'+i] != undefined) {
[Code].....
If i press one of the four pictures it does what i want to: THAT picture scales to 70. But how can i call this movieclip (the pressed one) from another method without using specified place in the array (like brillenArray[1])?
this is the code i am using, i get what flash is doing, after i release the key it starts to play the "walking" frames- only i include the gotoAndStop("idle") so it doesn't get to play "walking".but what i am looking for it to do is play the walking only when the key is pressed and stop when released.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT))//68
{
this._x += moveSpeed;
this.legs.gotoAndPlay("walking");
[code]....
on (release){
_root.drew._visible =false;
gotoAndPlay(31);
}
Above is my code which I am using to try and fade out a MC when a button is pressed. The button (and the picture it shows when pressed) are within the same MC. I have placed this MC on the root timeline and given the MC I want to fade out the instance name drew // but still not having any luck making invisible.
I have a function on root:
_root.fadeBox_mc.onEnterFrame = function (){
if (fade){
this.nextFrame();[code]....
This causes a mc to fade in and out on rollover/rollout. But what I wanna make is a box that fades in when pressed on the button and fade out when pressed for the second time. But if I say
on (press){
_root.fade = true;
}
the mc fades in, but I cant do another on (press) to fade out. Is this too confusing?

I have a movieclip named menu (instance name = mainmenu). Inside of that there is a button named btn_about (instance name = about). On the main stage there is an empty movieclip named empty_mc (instance name = mcholder, linkage id = empty). I want a user to press the button which causes a movieclip in the library named tesst (Linkage name = testid) to load into the empty movieclip (mc_holder).
Here is the code on the button:
on (release) {
this._parent.mcholder.attachMovie("testid", "tesst1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
}
It does not work.
Is there any possibility to combine those two handlers. I want a movieclip changing its scale when a button is pressed. The change I would write as this:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if (_scale<200) {
_scale+=10;
}}
But I can't write
on (release) {
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
...
Is there a way to realize it?
I have started to make an interactive movie where pushing keys moves a movie clip around the stage! And I can obviously make the movie clip do what I want, so here is the question: I want to make the movie clip change its animation depending on which keys are being pushed i.e. Left key the movie clips moves left, and my stick man changes to a running animation. Push nothing and it changes back to his standing still animation.
View 2 RepliesI have an external class which will add an eventListener to a bunch of movieClips. I did this this way so I dont have to write 80+ eventListeners. BUT how can Flash tell which movieClip I'm pressing?And how can I specificly let something happen for that specific instance?
View 1 RepliesWhen a button is pressed it adds another movieclip (from the library) to a movieclip acting as a container at the bottom of the screen. This all works fine, and the movieclip is added to the container (directly in the middle), what i need is it to be positioned to the left. Obviously i could change the .x value, but its a little bit more complicated, because if there is already one movieclip there (in the container at the bottom), the next one that is added needs to be 25 pixels to the right of the movieclip already there.

I have one script which is working a treat ( using ASBroadcasters ) and then today, I copied and pasted the same script into a new site and whenever I try to register a listener, I get the dreaded "There is no method with the name addListener"... oh, and a few things. the broadcasting object is a class extending the XML class, and i have used the same script before with no issues the listening object extends the object class, and whilst this class has been freshly developed, the last time I used the ASBroadcaster methods I didn't have to extend anything for it to work.

In the following code I am trying to call the function pressMc when movieclip myMC_mc is pressed and the apply the drag action to it. However the drag action is being applied to the whole of level0 and therefore all of the moviclips.I am not sure why. Am using the this key word as I would expect this to be identified as myMC_mc when the myMC_mc.onPress is evoked.I want to write this as a function because I want to apply this drag action to lots of different movieclips

I was using addEventListener("change",myListener) and it was working fine, then I thought of trying addListener instead, but then it didn't work. This lead me to google search what addListener does.I saw some stuff that made me conclude that there is a "listener" and there is an "event" and there's a difference between them. The Key object as 2 listeners: onKeyUp and onKeyDown , but none of the components have listeners, they just have events.I wanted to know why, and whats the difference between a listener and an event, and the difference between addListener and addEventListener.
View 8 RepliesI have a swf which just consist of one image per frame. I want to use the scrollpane's verical scrollbar to run through the frames instead of running along the height of the swf.Is there a built-in support, straight forward way to do this?Otherwise, I might want to use a ScrollEvent listener + callback to gotoAndStop according to the ScrollPane.verticalScrollPosition.

I need to get my movie to check if the user has click anywhere on the interface (doesn't matter were), if there's not click after 60second, I need to send the movie back to frame1.I know is a combination of addListener(Mouse), onMouseMove and getTimer. but I'm not very good at action script yet to combine the three.

im using key.addlisteners to check for key presses. but if a person presses all 3 keys at once (RIGHT, LEFT, UP) then releases one at a time, only the first release is noted by flash. see a demo at:

NOTE: I do not want to use if(Key.isDown...etc) to get this to work. if you are interested in why see below.here is the code:
