I am attempting to attach a slider bar to a movie clip. The movie clip is of a face morphing from emotion to no emotion. My ultimate goal is to have the viewer choose when the emotion has disappeared by moving the slider bar.

View 1 Repliesi am trying to create a basic game and am having a problem. I'm using swfmill and mtasc (but I doubt that has much impact) and am using ActionScript 2. At the moment I am attempting to add a load of tiles to a set and then move that set of tiles about the screen in one go. The problem I am having is that I can not figure out the best way of linking the set (which is created on the fly) to the _root movie and so it doesn't draw.
I could potentially be doing everything wrong as I have only just started to learn how to use this language. This is basically what I do:
I create a 'Main' class that extends MovieClip and add a new clip of this class to the library.
I also create a 'TileSet' class that also extends MovieClip. This class calls attachMovie (on 'this') to add a number of tile MovieClips from the library to this TileSet.
I create a 'TileSet' within 'Main' (like var myTileSet:TileSet=new TileSet();), so that the Main class can play with the tileset.
When running I see nothing. As I said befor I believe this is due to TileSet not being attached to Main or _root. As a test I changed the TileSet's attachMovie (that attaches the tiles) to be called on '_root' rather than 'this'. This change makes the tiles show when run, but means that I can not move all the tiles by simply moving the TileSet.
I think I could probably add the TileSet into the library and 'place' it (swfmill method to put the clip into the stage), but I would prefer to do it on the fly in pure ActionScript as I think this will be useful later on too.
Thats the first time i am using this forum so I'am a newbie. For first I must say that my english is the worst on earth. Therefore a you understood me.My problem is: made the Attach Movie Clip with XML Load and it wondered me, because it worked. But now I make Hover Captions inside the first Attach Movie Clip, also with an attach movie function, Now I have the problem how to get the data from the xml file into the 2. attach movie.for the 1. path (into the first attach movie) the code looks like this._root["neuesMC"+i].xmlPfad = xmlDatei[i].attributes.namen;
my Structure:

How can i attach a movie clip on to my program?
View 4 RepliesThis is what I am trying to achieve but I do not remember the syntax in AS2
HTML Code:
public function highlightCan() {
var glowId = String(this);
var newId = glowId.substring(47);
[Code].....
If I hard code this value i.e. _glow0 or _glow1, this works but this value needs to be dynamic, in order to get the rollover state working. per highlightCan();
I would like to attach a sound to a movie clip that is serving as a button.
I want the movie clip button to make a little noise when the mouse rollovers it.
I am using Flash MX.

how you can attach some actionscript to a duplicated movie clip.
View 4 Replieshow to attach a movie clip to the stage or root. I have created a movie clip called movClip and have checked export for actionscript and have chosen "movClip" as its class.I have used this script:
ActionScript Code:
function button1(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var mc1:movClip=new movClip();
mc1.x=0;
[code]....
This attaches the movie clip. Great! Problem is it doesn't attach the movie to the root or stage, but rather as a child of this function?? weird! so when I want to use removeChild(mc1) from a different function from a different button or even from an action set on a different timeline it can't target mc1?So how do I make this work. Basically I want one function from button 1 to attach the movie clip and I want a second function from a second button to remove the movie clip.
ok so heres the problem: i have some buttons that are suppose to attach a movie clip on stage after you press it. This works perfectly, but after i mask it, the masking box blocks it so i can't click on anything.
i hope you understood what i'm saying, and i've tried using the 'setmask' code, but that doesn't work either.
Code:
var hands = new Array();
function attachHands(){[code]....
These are the codes i have typed.I have already attach the movie in hand1,hand2,hand3.Is there a way to remove attachHand1 and attach a new movie clip on it? Not to overlap on attachHand1 because it will be seen.Those hand1,hand2,hand3 are empty movie clips....
I need to be able to click on any part of the screen and have a movieclip from the library appear where I clicked. It would be the same item each time.

I am trying to increase the speed of a movie clip by using a slider. Can someone point me to some information on how to do this? I found this but am not sure my version is picking up the change in frame rate accurately

The x parameter doesn't seem to have any effect whatsovever on the stage location.

View 7 RepliesI am trying to add action script 2.0 to a slider that i created using http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/slider.htm that slides a movie clip that is a timeline from left to right. In the timeline are (i)More... buttons that will reveal more information. I just need to know how to integrate the timeline into the code using as2 to make it slide when the slider is dragged..
This is the action script that I have on the slider movie clip as stated in the above tutorial. But this is ALL the action script I have on EVERYTHING..... I know I need more to make it pan the timeline but I dont know how to do it.
[Code]...
I really could just use a good tutorial that shows me how to link the image that im sliding to the slider bar. When the slider is moved to the right... the image flows left.... toward the end of the timeline. When the slider is all the way right. The end of the timeline is shown. The timeline is bigger than the stage so the slider is on a line with years on it.
iam trying to bulid a slider which will change the alpha of another movie clip named light.how do i do this. here is the actionscript i have so far:

Im making a game where you have a little dude you're walking around with using the arrow keyes. Now i have certain underwater scenes and here i thought it would be nice to add a little movie clip of air bubbles coming out of the dudes mouth.
So i have the movie clip with the animated bubbles laying in the same frame as the scene (where the dude will walk around). Im looking for a script that makes it so that as soon you enter the scene the "bubbles" movieclip will "attach" itself to the "man" movieclip. (Or atleast follow it around)
I dont want to modify the man clip itself with bubbles since then the bubbles will interfere with some hittest i have (and just want the bubbles to be aesthetic)
I am trying to design a very basic flash game. The basis of which is that there is a slider at the bottom and objects fall from the top and you have to avoid them. However, if the object lands on the slider, it also has to become part of the slider and so the area of the slider increases. I am unsure of how to code this last bit as the properties of the slider must change.

p1 is the instance of the movie which I am trying to move with slider. When I apply above code on the handle of the slider with instance name 'handle' everything works perfect. Slider moves and so do the movie. Now instead when I bring the same code to the main timeline to do the same, onClipEvent does not work, it gives error. So I replaced it with the code written below. Now I can move the handle but movie is not moving.

I am trying to create a slider that will move a series of images in a movie clip based on the location of the slider. The problem I have is that when you click and drag the scroller it will move the images once but after that the images will not move. I am guessing that the problem is with my code. I want to move the _x of the images movie clip based on the _x of the slider. Here is the code I am using which is placed in frame one of the "timelineSlider" MC:

Is it possible to attach a timer to control a slider? Or alt remove the slider_mc and replace with a timer so that an image desaturated gradually after 60 seconds? Here is the file I am looking at [URL].
View 3 RepliesWhy an attached move clip doesn't keep button interactions from still engaging in the layers underneath i.e. navigation buttons, rollovers, etc.?
View 3 RepliesI would like to know if there is a way to update the position of the thumb on the Slider component when a movie clip plays. Currently I have a movie clip symbol on my stage with the instance name ShapeMC. It has about 10 frames or animation and two actions. the first frame has a stop action as does the last frame. The actions are on their own layer, separate from the actual animation. I also have the slider component in my library, but it is only there so I can reference it through AS3. My AS3 instantiates a variable of type Slider. I then define the properties, like the width, hieght, thumb size, minimum, maximum, as well as enabling livedragging. I did this so the user can drag the slider and move through the Movie Clip symbol. I added a button that allows the user to click it and autoplay the Movie Clip symbol (ShapeMC). All that works. What I would like to do is when I hit the play button, I would like to see the thumb on the slider move along the slider as the Movie Clip symbol (ShapeMC) plays. So if the Movie Clip symbol reaches frame 5, the slider thumb show be seen as being half way through the tread. I tried putting the currentFrame into the .value property of the slider, but that didn't do anything. No errors, but it didn't move the thumb at all.
