ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Frame In Main Timeline?
Apr 2, 2011I made an RPG, and I'm trying to make the movie itself go to the second/next frame. But whenever I try to do that, nothing happens at all. I tried _level0.gotoAndStop(2) and _root.gotoAndStop(2), both on a frame and on a movie clip.
It's suppose to initiate this function once a certain variable (_root.numbers) reaches 20, and I've tested if the variable does reach 20 by doing other things.

View 1 RepliesMovie Clip Symbol Won't Play On Main Timeline
Aug 29, 2005I've created a movie clip symbol with it's own animation on its timeline. I've placed this symbol onto the first frame of the main timeline but when I test it, it doesn't play. There's no stop actions or anything on either timelines so I'm not sure why this is happening. I thought that the animation in a movie clip symbol will automatically play (i.e. if you test in a browser) once it's on the main timeline - is this right? Or am I doing something wrong. Maybe I need to tell it to play?

Jan 2, 2010i am creating a survey with say 7 questions. each question has the same MovieClip symbol each with a different instance name, like q1, q2, ... q7.
the MovieClip symbol has 5 static texts and 5 SimpleButtons. i have some code in that symbol to make sure that only a single button has the "on" or "checked" state to show that that one is chosen. this works great.
my question is, how do i communicate each user choice with the main timeline after the user hits the "submit" button? or, how do i have code under the "submit" mousedown event that can iterate through the 7 symbols to query each one and see which of the 5 SimpleButtons is "checked" or "on". this iteration will then create a list of responses for all 7 questions.
ultimately, i will have flash concatenate a GET POST string that will send the survey results to a web server.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Communicating To The Main Timeline From Within A Movie Clip Symbol?
Mar 8, 2008What I have is a situation where I need to play some frames on the main timeline, say to frame 5. I place a movie clip symbol in frame 5 which I want to play (all is working fine so far).Once the Movie clip is finished playing, I want the main timeline to start again.In AS2, I would simply put
_root.play();
Now in AS3, I think it should read
root.play();
but I get an error which reads:call to a possibly undefined method play through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject

View 3 RepliesProfessional :: Motion Path Using 3D - OK In Main Timeline Broken In Symbol
Jan 4, 2012I have spent many frustrating hours trying to figure out why this is happening. It is totally broken. I need to use a motion path using 3d in a symbol. Because of the way the project is put together (for Flex) there are several FLAs that need to be converted to symbols.
So when I convert the FLA that contains a motion path with 3D, the object moves away from the path in the symbol (the 1st frame remains in place, but everything else is off the path), even though it remains correct in the main timeline.
And once I start editing the object in the symbol, the object returns to the path ok, as if it had been some strange display issue, but the 3D is all wrong - the vanishing point relative to the object has changed. The same thing happens whether I create the 3D path using "global" or "local" tool settings.

Jul 12, 2010I am making flash segments for one of my professors for online teaching and the way he has his server set up, whenever there are interactive segments, the segments are done on one frame. Right now I am trying to make an interactive segment where you click on input variables to an AND gate (in circuitry) to change the input from 0 and 1, and then based on these inputs it will show the output.
Basically I want to start out by having them all display ?'s, and then if you click on the ? it turns into a 1 and then clicking again goes to a 0 and 1 and 0 etc. How can I either change what these buttons look like or how can I change the buttons to go from the ? button to the 1 button while all staying on one frame? I am very very new to actionscript (I know how to AddEvent Listener, etc, I just need to know what to write for my function)

Jun 19, 2009My question. How do I control a movie clips FPS independently of the main time line. I believe in the previous version of Flash this was not possible but I think it can be done with CS4 with AS3.
I have five images with motion add to them. One fades out while the next fades in. To get this to work slower then the main time line I would have to add a lot of frame for that movie clip to not run so fast. Which this will make the file size larger.
I need this movie clip to run at say 12 FPS instead of the 24 the main timeline is running at.
