I have
Code:
function attachBk (thisBk, nextBk):Void {
if (thisBk == undefined) {
this.attachMovie(nextBk,"bkHolder1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
[Code]....
When I click a button I want bkHolder1 to fade out but so far I haven't had any success, I tried doing bkHolder1._alpha = 0 just to see if it would affect it's property but it didn't.
I have 20 frames on a timeline, and a mc in the frames. Frame 1 the mc is _alpha 0%, at frame 20 the _alpha is 100%. A tween between the frames fades up the mc alpha. How can I change the frame 20 _alpha setting from outside the swf file? Say I need the alpha to be 60% at frame 20 BUT I can't open up the FLA, can I adjust the Alpha setting (using Loadvars perhaps) without going back into the FLA? I won't have access to the FLA (when the file is online) and I want to be able to manipulate the frame 20 _alpha setting. I have tried doing this totally in actionscript and not using the timeline, but if I can't get that to work I will need to be able to adjust the alpha parameter without editing the FLA.
View 2 Replieslike my movie container in my _root, how do i set it`s alpha to 0? does this work: _root.contMovie.setAlpha(0); ? or is there any other possibility to set it`s alpha to 0?
the best thing for me would be if i could fade it to alpha via AS command, i can't control it direct because the movieclip is 2 levels above....:-)
I am currently trying to set a movieclips alpha property from an external text file. The movieclip is called Text_Main_Slide1
The text file:
banner_settings_468x60.txt
which contains:
&Alpha_Main_Slide1=0&
I have currently written:
loadVariables("banner_settings_468x60.txt", 0);
Text_Main_Slide1._alpha = Alpha_Main_Slide1;
which doesn't work.I can however set it manually: Text_Main_Slide1._alpha = 0;
But I need to be able to set the number from the text file.
I have a MovieClip, named "thing", that's in one position and in another position on the next frame. I added an eventlistener to "thing" to advance frames. Very simple, everything works fine.I then add "thing.alpha = 0.5" in the button's event listener. Now when I publish the file, thing fades but doesn't move.
p.s. For reference, here's the entirety of my AS3 on the first frame:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();
thing.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doClick);

I'm trying to do use the following code:
ActionScript Code:
var my_color:Color = new Color(closeText);
my_color.setRGB(0xFF0000); // any color
I get the following compiler errors though: Symbol 'closeText', Layer 'Layer 1', Frame 1, Line 11046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Color. Symbol 'closeText', Layer 'Layer 1', Frame 1, Line 11180: Call to a possibly undefined method Color.
Inside movieClip container, there are colored buttons on layer1 and on layer2 there is movieClip square which covers the buttons. I want to use the color efffects and blending options of movieClip square to make layer 1 alpha. There are some blending options called alpha, difference, lighten and substract but Im not getting the right combinations. I want to make layer1 alpha only by using layer2.
View 1 RepliesBasically, I want to change the alpha value on my movieclip. I start my mc with an alpha of .08 (8%).
mc.alpha = .08;
What I then want to do is increment it to .9 (90%) and when it hits that, decrement it back to .08, and then when it hits that, increment it again to .9 etc.
I have tried
if(mc.alpha==.9){
mc.alpha -= .01;
}else{
mc.alpha += .01;
}
Ok. I am new again so I hope I am describing this correctly. I don't know the best way to do this but this is what I've dreamed up so far: I have a number of movie clips on my screen, all thumbnail sized images, each with an instance name (ex: tw_lifeoftheparty, tw_xmen, tw_xfiles, tw_diehard, etc.).
In each movieclip there are 2 layers: the thumbnail image(bottom layer) and a black border(top layer). The black border is an object named wk_border and isin each of the thumbnail movieclips.
I have given wk_border the same instance name in each thumbnail movieclip "border"

View 1 RepliesI've been trying to change an MCs alpha with actionscipt. the movies FPS is 30. Here's the as:

View 1 Repliesi am developing one small imteractive game.in that i'm getting one difficulty.Difficulty is: i want to play a moviclip whenever i 'll click on button ,and .For that i hav applied logic in following way.
function onMouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.alpha=0; (alpha of 1st movieclip will 0 )
[code]......
When I mouse over a movieclip, I want its alpha level to change. Here's what I have:
ActionScript Code:
object.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverObject);
object.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutObject);
function mouseOverObject(e:MouseEvent){
if(!inventoryOpen){ e.currentTarget.alpha = 100; }
} function mouseOutObject(e:MouseEvent){
if(!inventoryOpen){ e.currentTarget.alpha = 50; }
}
It does work, but the mouseover only registers when the cursor is over certain areas of the movieclip.
I have 3 movieclips on a stage, all being instances of a square (mc_square01, mc_square02, mc_square03).What I want to do is on every reload to have a random movieclip to be the 'correct answer' - and this is the bit I'm struggling with.The way i'm testing this out is just to change the alpha of a movieclip on the stage.Here's my code....
var myArray:Array = [mc_square01, mc_square02, mc_square03];
mc_square01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER , chooseMe);
mc_square02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER , chooseMe);[code]....

I am trying to change the color of my movieclip, but am having alot of trouble targetting it. Its within a button, that is within another movieclip, its path looks something like:
root.fullgrid.b1x1.planetfill
fullgrid is movieclip
b1x1 is button
planetfill is movieclip <---this is the one I'm trying to change color.
function change color(e:Event):void { var colorTransform:ColorTransform = target.transform.colorTransform; colorTransform.color = 0xFF0000; target.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform;
}
I am able to change the color of a movieclip on the stage, so I know the code works, its just a targetting issue.
Happy New Year 2010 everyone :) Just getting back into the Flash groove, and having a simple question.I have a movie(video player) where the color of the buttons changes. I've already drawn out the buttons and created a 1 color box(movieClip) that will be the background of all the buttons.
I've used ColorTransform to change the color of a rectangle that I used code to create, but what is the simplest way to go about changing a color in a movieClip containing a graphic that you physically have drawn out. Path to movieClip that I need to change the HEX value of: controls.btn_Sound.colorChip

View 3 RepliesI have implemented this code to see if it was any easier to do as part of my plan. My objective is to be able to click a square and for it to change color then click again for it to revert back to the original color BUT I want this to repeat constantly if possible as it wont do currently after the code I added:
Here is the code:

import flash.display.Sprite;

View 5 RepliesHow can I change the color of a movieclip dynamically and still keep it's filters? For example:
I have a movieclip on stage with a bevel filter on it. I then want the movieclip to change from blue to red when it's moused over and vise versa when moused out.
The color values I have are hexidecimal: 0xff0000, 0x0000ff
How can I do this? I tried colortransform but when I use that it changes color but removes filters.
