I need to click on a button that is on an external swf loaded in the main movie with a loader. I'm trying this but does not work:
// main movie
function openswf(queFoto:String)
{
imgLoader = new Loader();
[Code].....
- i have 3 separate movie clips (a,b,c)
- my main movie is (a) and when i click a button there, it will go to external movie (b)
- under external movie (b) there's a movie clip that includes my animation and content button
- if i click on the content button on movie (b), external movie (c) will pop up [ it will not replace movie (b) but will just overlap it, it's like a small pop up ]
i did the actionscript and when i'm testing external movie (b), it's working... it's showing/popping up movie (c) but when i tried it on the main movie (a), the movie (c) is not popping on the (b) err, sorry if it's a bit confusing / how i explained it. but hopefully somebody will get the idea. and it won't also return on the main movie (a) when i click on a link from the external movie.
I'm trying to make a flash website that has clickable buttons that will play different movie clips. But I dont know how to make it to just play the movie clip with the button you click without playing all the movie clips on the main timeline.
View 1 Repliesi found a script that unloads my external swf inside a movieclip when i click a button on my main screen. this script causes the external flash inside my moviclip to close and unload when i click the close button, which is what i want!. the only pain in the butt is it preloads the external flash when you go the flash site and i dont want that. i only want the script to close the external swf. if anyone is curious book.swf is the swf in the movieclip i am trying to close.[code]

I am loading swfs into a movie clip. However, the contact button is not a loaded swf any longer. It's in the main flash page. This is what I want to do. All the buttons load the external swfs except when I click on the contact button that is in the main flash page. I need to get the other buttons to load after I click the contact flash button. Below is the code for the contact button and the one under for one of the other buttons.

All works fine untill I do something to the loaded swf.For example if I click a button on the loaded swf the button works but then when I click the button on the main movie to load the next and play the transition the transistion doesnt work.If I dont do anything to the loaded swf the transitions work.Is it something to do with the paths being changed when the loaded swf is acivated?
View 2 RepliesI'm building a website, in which the 'Gallery Page' has a link to an external swf file, which is a scrolling clip of thumbnails.
What I want to do, is create each thumbnail into a button, which will then play a Movie Clip from a frame located in the Main swf file. (So basically, each thumbnail button is a small photo, will play that photo in a large scale as a movie)
eg.
thumbnail1_btn needs to go to main swf and play movieclip1.mc, frame 1
thumbnail2_btn nends to go to main swf and play movieclip1.mc, frame 2
I want to load six seperate .swf's into the main movie while the main movie loads too. So in simpler words, i want to be able to load all of the swf's the same time i am loading the main swf.
View 2 RepliesI Have a flashmovie thats almost done and will soon hit the internet, but I want to add some animations into the website it�s two gears that I�m about to put at the bottom of the page and when a button releases in the main flashmovie the two bottom gears will turn a few frames and just stand still.These three movies are all separate (main movie, first gear and second gear).
It's a homepage designed in HTML and flash that has this "main flashmovie" in the middle of the screen, the size is about 1500(width)X800(height). And the gears is about 800wX200h placed at the left and right side bottom of the page. Dont worry the site is easy to apply to any screen resolution.I have been looking everywhere for any soul out there who suffering from the same problem but no success. Is it possible to script a button in the main movie to launch two separate movies in their own contents?
I'm trying to add a back button once I click a main menu button then remove the back button once it is pressed. I get the title error.

I am creating a full site in flash. The main movie has an empty movie clip in the middle of the movie to load external movies as the user clicks on the links. Everything has worked good so far as the linking has only gone 1 level deep. However, when I created a new external movie, and had buttons on it for another external page, but yet to open in the main movie, I can't get anything to work. Example.... In the main movie, the user clicks on the archive link, and the external archive movie is loaded into the main movie. Now, on this archive movie, there is a button on it that links to a another movie (say text effects.swf). However, when they click this button for text effects, I can't get it to load into the main movie clip and replace the archive movie that was currenlty there.
View 14 RepliesI'm trying to have an external loaded swf unload when other buttons on the main swf are clicked. i finally managed to get an external swf to load with a button using AS3, now I just can't figure out how to get it to go away when the other buttons on the main swf are clicked. Here is my code so far:
Code: Select allquote4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, goquote4);
function goquote4 (e:MouseEvent) {
var loadit = new Loader();

I am trying to get a nav button in one movie (main_nav.swf) to target a my main movie (index.swf) and load a sub nav movie (metals_subnav_infinite.swf) into it. The sub nav movie will do a similar task - loading a portfolio swf into main movie (index.swf). Here is the file breakdown of my working files:index.swf - main final movie which loads "main_nav_infinite3.swf" on startmain_nav_infinite3.swf - loads main nav "main_nav.swf" and scrolls it infinitely (infinite menu)main_nav.swf - main nav with buttons that trigger sub nav "metals_subnav_infinite.swf" to load into index.swfmetals_subnav_infinite.swf - loads sub nav "metals_subnav.swf" and scrolls it infinitelymetals_subnav.swf - sub nav with buttons that trigger "folio.swf" (have not created this file yet!) to load into "index.swf"The script I was focusing on is in main_nav.fla and it is:
metals_mc_bn.onRelease = function() {
reActivateMenu();
this.gotoAndStop(3);

I have read all threads and can not find a solution but i am not somebody with a lots of knowledge about actionscript so here is my problem i am using this script .
[code]....
the problem is that when i click on the first button loads ok but when click on second still showing the first movie clip in the back ,,,,, i have try everything without luck ,,,, i guess i need to keep reading but will like to find an answer to this situation ,
I'm still a rookie in flash and I'm having a little bit of trouble with some actionscript. I've gotten as far as placing the buttons and assign the correct actionscript for them to work. Everything is working fine with the buttons activating the external .swf into a blank movie clip in the main movie. Ony thing is, I would like the external movie assigned to the first button to open once the movie is loaded.
I thought by using the same actionscript i used on the button {and removing the on(release) tag} and placing on the first frame of the main movie would help, but it doesn't.
my problem is that i need to make a reisze, cause the screen resolution for other users. My main and news movie works perfect, but the others movies re-scale everything bigger. The problem of the external loaded movie is: this movie needs the funktion:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
If i dont have this code inside the movie is not going to resize fullscreen into the main movie. Inside this movie im scalling photos and some mc's You can take a look what i mean under: [URL]
If you take a look to the bar where the Number of pictures (30) are you will see that the lower bar and the pictures is not going to scale to fill the full screen if i delete the this code;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
I am looking for a way to fade in a white movie clip over my main movie when a button is pressed.
(i.e. When you press a button, a white rectangle will fade in over all other layers and then fade out after a couple of seconds. This is to make it look like the different pages are fading in and out without having to build the transition over and over again.)
I have a problem with preloading external swf's into my main movie actually I have a a seperate preloader setup for each external SWF and when i click a button to load an external movie its not showing a preloader it anoying to wait while movie loading without seeing a prelaoder.
View 8 RepliesI am a bit new to the world of externally loaded swf's. I am trying to load an swf into my main movie, and then access/control the movieclips within that newly loaded swf, but for some reason it is not working.
Here is a quick example:
this.menu.createEmptyMovieClip("myMovieClip_mc",this.menu.getNextHighestDepth()+1);
this.menu.myMovieClip_mc.loadMovie("\menu\standard.swf",this.menu.getNextHighestDepth()+1);
this.menu.myMovieClip_mc._lockroot = true;
trace(this.menu.myMovieClip_mc.option);
this.menu.myMovieClip_mc.onRollOver = function() {
trace("Hello?");
this.bounce(120);
}
Okay this code does sucessfully create the movieclip but my onRollOver function does not work, and I cannot access any of the movieClips within myMovieClip_mc such as option, it traces out as undefined.
I am trying to place an external .swf into my main movie.
I created a container movie for the .swf in the main .fla:
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mapcontainer",this.getNextHighestDepth );
mapcontainer._x = 163;
mapcontainer._y = 101;
[Code]....
I imagine that the solution lies in readjusting _root for the fact that the external .swf is now placed inside a parent, but I don't know how to do that.
n.b. my final movie is meant to run offline.
I have two files main.swf and external.swf i have use the following script on main.swf to do animation
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
[Code]....
which work perfectly fine. Now due some reason i had to place the navigation bar in the external movie clip , in external.swf Using the same script how can i control the textBox animation which is on the main.swf??
I`m working on a main swf (Main.swf). There are many seites with many themes. On each site (Frames 1,2,3,.....25) There`s a button to get to an external .swf. If I`m in the external .swf, there is a button too, to get back (back) to the mainmovie. Now what I wanted to do is, go back from the external .swf to the Main.swf to its Frame Nr.5, when i press the button "back". With that Code below I can only get to the mainmovie 1.Frame (its Home).
//Connection to LEVEL1
back.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,mouseClick3 );
function mouseClick3(event:MouseEvent):void
{
[Code]....
What should I add the code to make it work?
I am pulling external images, I have my main image, and five small images, I have that to make the small images when click to appear in the place of the main image, but I am not obtaining to make they to click, I am placing my archive who to want to make download
View 2 RepliesI have a movie clip (a) with a button that will load movie clip (b) when clicked. It loads (b) on top of (a) which is exactly what i want.
Now the problem. I have a button in (b) that I want to use to close (or unload) (b).
This is the code in (a) that loads (b):
Code:
spinner_mc.production.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, doubleClickHandler2);
function doubleClickHandler2(event:MouseEvent):void {

i made a main(parent) page that loads an swf which has a button(a1) which on click i need it to move the timeline of the parent
i wrote this code to the external swf and tryed many commands such as Object(root).gotoAndStop(1);
a1.buttonMode = true;
a1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,a1a);
function a1a(event:MouseEvent):void {
}
I am building a flash site and I am trying to load all of my swf file into one (final) fla file. This is the code for loading one of them in:
// ActionScript 3.0
stop();
var movie1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mainpage.swf");
var ldr:Loader = new Loader()
ldr.load(movie1);
addChild(ldr);
So this mainpage.swf file has a button with instance name of btnContact which I would like to add an event Listerner to it here in the (final fla) so when I click it, it jumps to the frame "one" on the final timeframe.
So basically, controling the main timeframe though using a button on an external swf file.
I have a main movie is coding AS2 which contains a movieClip called MC_header.And I have an external movie is coding with AS3.
My question is : Can i loadmovie the external movieclip in the main movie?
I am trying to load external swf files in a main movie.I have created 3 different movies. Main movie is named "Container". Another 2 movies are named "movie1.swf" and "movie2.swf".Main movie "Container" is having some navigation buttons and template sort of thing in it. On the lowest layer in main movie I have created an empty movie clip in which I am trying to load "movie1.swf".Now problem is when I load "movie1.swf" instead of loading the external movie in target mc, it clears all the contents in main movie.
View 3 RepliesI have loaded an external swf into an empty movie clip in my main movie. Movie clip works fine when I test the external swf by itself. Once I test the main movie and load the ext. swf file the movie clip stops working.
This movie clip will act as a button. It is a small folder tab that will move up once clicked and move down when it is clicked again. Will changing the _root to _parent work?
AS for the movieclip:
onClipEvent (load) {
speed = _root.variSpeed;
}
