ActionScript 3.0 :: Animate Across The Stage In Response To Clicking Various Buttons?
Jan 28, 2010
I have a small mask that I need to animate across the stage in response to clicking various buttons. It has to go a different distance each time depending on which button is clicked along the x axis. I can get at the starting and ending x co-ordinates. need to develop a set of x cordinates so that the mask starts moving fast and slows down as it gets nearer - kind of like the easing effect. I figured using some sort of simple 1/x^2 expression and have spent an hour or so fiddling in excel. Trouble is its a LONG TIME since I did maths, and I can't remember what formula to use. Have tried google with "parabola", "simple curves" etc etc

I am trying to create a butterfly to fly in front of an image gallery, kinda to be funny. I am new at this, so its probably easy and I just forgot, but I need some help please.
I create the butterfly on the stage, make into a movie clip symbol. Click inside the movie clip....and then what? I want to be able to click on the butterfly that is sitting on a leaf, once it is clicked on it will fly in front of the image gallery (I have already created, and seems to work) for a few seconds and then fly back to the leaf.

I would like to have a button animate on roll out, so if it fades to a color on mouse over it fades back on roll out. I understand you cant achieve this by putting action script on the button (well maybe you can) but is best achieved by placing action script on the frame and giving the button names etc.

I'm working with an ActionScript Classes file for some MovieClip buttons to animate In and Out. Everything is working the way it should but I would like the button to stay indicated once clicked on and then animate out once a new button is selected. The way I set it up in the past isn't very efficient and the next project I'm working on is going to be a lot of buttons. Trying to learn something more efficient.
Here is the AS class code:
class ButtonClass extends MovieClip {
public function ButtonClass() {
this.onRollOver = this.Over;
this.onRollOut = this.Out;
} private function Over() {
this.gotoAndPlay("Over");
} private function Out() {
this.gotoAndPlay("Out");
}}
And then for the MC button in the FLA:
b1.btnMC.btnText.text = "PORTFOLIO";
b2.btnMC.btnText.text = "CONTACT";

i am using MCloader to load my swf in my main swf and i keep running in the same issue around the site.using all the same button script and style in labels.... sometimes they work like they should and sometimes they just don't got to the over or out state?!
here's an exemple::
Code:
//---------------Buttons intro---------------\
btnintromc.onRollOver = function () {
btnintromc.gotoAndPlay("over");
[code]....
the "btnintromc" when clicked load the right swf in the mcloader on the main swf (so the onRelease work fine)but the animation just don't work, that's really bugging me because it's the same button and same script as in the main swf but for some reason it just wont work?

This is a really stupid question and I was able to get it to work in AS2.0 but now I am trying to redo it in AS3.0.What I have are 4 menu buttons and what I want to do is when a button is clicked it will take the user to that page on the timeline.On the actions layer this is what I have:
stop();
btnAbout.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, stopHandler);
function stopHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {[code]....
When I add the code under stop(), and test the movie, it doesn't stop, it just keeps looping through all the pages. I am probably doing something really stupid that I can see. As I stated above, AS3.0 is VERY new to me. I have two books in front of me and neither are helping me with this issue.
NOTE: If I remove the code below the stop(), the movie stops when I test it.

Loading Images in _levels via loadClip. Now i want 2 buttons on TOP of the Images. So first tried attachMovie _level 200. Did't work (don't ask me why since all logic says it should. but I'm guessing a difference in loading between loadClip & loadMovie). Now made 2 swf files with just the buttons and load via loadClip. Works fine BUT... now I can click then. tried stuff like:
Code:
_level200.button_btn.onRelease,
_level200[button_btn].onRelease, _level200["button_btn"].onRelease, _root[_level200["button_btn"]].onRelease
You get the picture. Any solution to this?

lets say i have a bunch of buttons and all the code i need is in the onRelease functions and the exact effect i wanted would be clicking the buttons every 5 seconds.
Basically what i want to do is use those onRelease functions on the buttons, in the button order(button1, button2, etc.) every 5 seconds, without clicking though. Is there a way i can tell it to use the onRelease functions? How would i go about setting this up?
Everything works perfectly i just want it to "auto-click" or "auto-call the onRelease's" every 5 seconds. It would also be nice to be able to click the buttons at any given time too. So say the timer is on button4 and i click button2 and the timer starts from there.
Code:
myInterval = setInterval("button[i] onRelease function here", 5000);

supposing there is a movieclip in stage.. let's say its a circle with an instance name of "theCircle"..
the circle has to move / go to / animate to a random location on stage every 5 seconds... basically, the circle should move to the random location, stop and wait for 5 seconds, then move again to another random location.. again and again...
the code below is untested and incomplete.. but it is what i am trying to do.
Code:
var randomXPosition:int;
var randomYPosition:int;
var positionTimer:Timer;
[Code]....
on the moveCircle function, i can simply set the X and Y of the circle equal to randomXPosition and randomYPosition... but that would just change the location of the circle, not move it.. i am trying to make the circle animate towards that location at a constant speed..

What I want to do is:
Click on button one: Content1 fades to view
Click on a different button: Content1 fades to white, content2 fades to view.
I can make it so the content fades to view, but I don't know how to made it fade away and then have new content fade in when you click another button.

I am working on a menu that uses a number of these buttons: [URL]
The button works quite well, except that I would like the sub-menu to close up once the mouse clicks elsewhere on the screen. I have tried to find the Action Script for this but have been unsuccessful. What script can I use to cause the menu to close up when a user clicks outside of the button?
I've posted the fla file below.

I'm just getting into learning ActionScript, I'm using 2.0 for the time being. Anyways, I know how to get clicking buttons to control the sound, but mostly that has just been a matter of muting with the "stopallsounds" function. What I wanted to know is if it is possible to get the keyboard to set the volume at 20%. For example, when you him the "down" arrow key, it goes down to 20% volume automatically.

I created four instance of movieclip on stage and named them t1_mc,t2_mc,t3_mc,t4_mc. Then I made and array and loaded them inside the array
var arr1:Array = new Array( t1_mc, t2_mc, t3_mc, t4_mc );
var names:String;
//function made to add event listener to each object
function addListner():void {
for ( var i:uint = 0; i < arr1.length; i++ )

What happens is I've used the the bus and car mcs to drive on both sides of the road in the animation (they will go across the screen then flip over and drive back within their respective mc).When they first cross over they are layered right but because of the timing of each animation, there is a point where both are going the same way on the same side of the road. At this point the bus pulls up higher (to the side of the road to pick people up) and the car passes it. The problem is when the car passes it is registered as being behind the bus (which would be hitting people).So i'm trying to get the car to swapDepths and come to the front Only when driving on one side of the road, so only at a certain frame reference essentially - not the entire mc.

I want to target multiple buttons and get different value by clicking different button.
Suppose there are 3 buttons: "button01", "button02, "button03".
This is my code:
var targetArr:Array = ["button01","button02","button03"];
for (var i:int = 0; i < targetArr.length; i++)
{
var target = getChildByName(targetArr[i]);
[Code]....
Instead of getting different value by clicking different button, I constantly get "3" as the value. I want: clicking "button01" will get "0" as the value, clicking "button02" will get "1" as the value, and clicking "button03" will get "2" as the value. How to do it?

Is there any way to click on a button (or movieclip) in Flash and somehow get the current framelabel that the instance happens to be on?
my_button_instance.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickInstance, false, 0, true);
private function clickInstance(e:MouseEvent):void {
trace(trace-out-the-frame-label-here?);

I started working with AS3 a month ago, I know the basics and stuff, but I can't do that much. The user would draw lines by clicking on the stage. The code works exactly as I wanted it to, but it is on AS2 . I tried, but I can't 'convert' it to AS3. I would like to know how this code would work on AS3! Here's the download link of the .fla, so you can see better what I mean: [URL].

I have a frame-by-frame animation. I want to be able to click and drag on the stage back and forth and traverse through the animation. I.e. I want to click and drag from left to right to make the animation go forwards and right to left to make the animation go backwards. How would I achieve this? I am making an assumption that there will be some maths involved in calculating mouse position and traversing to the correct frame, but how would I do this?

I have an animation that I want the user to be able to move back and forth by clicking Next_btn or Back_btn buttons. Here's what I've done.
[Code]...
I can navigate through the movie correctly, until I navigate back to frame 1 ("start"). After this, when I click on the Next button, the movie goes to the last frame without stopping at "KMT2".
