ActionScript 3.0 :: Control A MovieClip From The Stage
Feb 12, 2009
I'm trying to control the information that will be shown in the textBox that is located in one of the frames of the movieClip but it seems that in actionScript 3.0 the code has changed. does anyone know what is the new code for doing it? My aim is that if I define a "var" on the stage and get a certain letter in that var then that letter will be shown in the movieClip in the key Frame that the textbox was set

How do you control the background color of a movie clip and the stage? i have thought about placing a mc within the mc as a backround_mc, then change the tint attribute from my main timeline, is this on the right track?
i have a movie where a user loads images into an image viewer (mc) i have craeted. If a user clicks on gallery 1, the loader appears, and load the jpg and then tells the viewer to show onceloaded. But, if a user clicks on gallery 1, then clicks on gallery 2, the movie finishes loading picture 1, before loading picture 2, is there any waqy i can force the loader to stop loading one,a dn load two immediately.

I am having trouble on my Flash assignment which due on Monday, for the assignment, I am goingt to make a game, similar to the classic aracade game, Asteroids. They provided some basic code for the timing and rotation of asteroids, the behavior of the asteroids is appear randomly (but not moving) in the stage every five seconds with rotation, that's already been done by the code provided.

I have a button inside a movieclip, to which I would like to apply a rollover function. When rolled over, this button (inside MOVIECLIP 1) would make (MOVIECLIP 2) jump to second frame. I'm using Flash 8.This is turning onto a real headache for me, since i've searched every single forum and thread concerning this matter, and nothing seems to work.

In the following example (File attached), the smoke goes above the stage. I want to avoid it, and limit the smoke to go maximum up to the stage.
I need it because my flash is auto re-sizable to the browser width & height. And when the smoke go above the stage my swf file starts shrink and gets very small.

I want to have a hidden menu so I have put some buttons in a MC and added it to the main stage but I am having trouble controlling the stage with the buttons in the movie clip. I think I need to reference the main stage some how... parent or something like that but I'm not really sure and don't know where to put the code.
Code:
stop();

I am creating something that uses separate .as and .fla files, and I was wondering if there would be a way to place a textfield inside a movieclip, and then be able to control it from the code, for instance, I want to make an achievement animation that pops up whenever I tell it to, but I want it to say different things, while the text is also animated

Let's say you have a great end product, but you want to make it more processor friendly by eliminating stage listeners that have no reason for existing at certain times. I'm not sure how to execute them. I know that encapsulating listeners in a way that they aren't called until they are needed can be done to conserve the processor...but:
1) Is there a way to kill any event listener that exits the stage area?
2) Is there a way to kill any event listener that gets completely covered by another movie clip? Say there was a MouseEvent.CLICK listener on movie clip "A", but movie clip "B" has a higher index and covers every click-able area of "A".

when i Control > Test Movie with an animation, the preview is not cropped to the stage size.i see eveything out in the grey, which i don't want to see. i just can't find the right settings, if they exist.i'm assuming the stage is akin to the page bounding box in illustrator, so test movie should behave like 'print preview'?

i have a UILoader that loads an image from an xml list when you click its thumbnail ( in its thumbnails mc on mainstage aswell) thing is, i have another UILoader on the layer above that loads in a swf ( a slideshow that fades in and out the pictures when they change to the next, with all the coding on frame 1, frame 2 only has a stop and some code for when the mouse is idle for 5 secs it goes back to frame 1) so when you go to "portraits" it takes you to frame "x" where the slideshow ( loaded external swf ) starts playing automaticly right, if i click any thumbnail the slideshow goes to frame 2 ( wich is perfect and the mouse idle thing i wanted works great ) the ONLY THING IS
after the slideshow runs by default for the first time ( i enter the category portraits ) and i click any thumbnail ( moving slideshow swf to frame 2 enabling mouse idle event ) and the mouse is idle ( so it does the event and starts playing the slideshow again ( goes back to frame 1 ) ) I CANT MAKE THE UILOADER OF THE THUMBS IMAGE TO DISSAPPEAR!

I have 2 movieclips on the main timeline of my movie; One (mc) contains an animation, the other (bt2) contains a button (bt) with code. I want it so when the button (bt) is clicked, it causes the animation (mc) on the main timeline to play.
The button's code is contained inside bt2.
So far I've tried the following things...
Code:
bt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{bt2(root).mc.play();}
[Code].....
... along with several other things. Nothing is working at all, and I spent all last night looking for a solution with none in sight.

I am making a site and have a component on the stage that is put there dynamicly through AS 2.0. When I F5 or Ctrl F5 it seems that the actionscript is read allover again?Only the script that is situated in the specific label. What if I have script in that label that creates a news reader. I f12 and the news reader is there I jump to another label with the menu. when i jump back to the home label the news reader does not appear on the stage. after a f5 or ctrl f5 it does.Do I have to attach the movieClip in each label to assure a the dynm-movieClip script is on stage for the ctrl f5 issue?

On the stage I have a movieclip called mc_back. I also have a movieclip on the stage called mc_content. Now, inside mc_content I have a bunch of code and some of it adds, or should add, an EventListener to mc_back as well as a a function that works when mc_back is pressed.
So basically, all code is written inside mc_content and some of it needs to interact with mc_back.
how to target mc_back from inside mc_content. Using stage.mc_back or root.mc_back doesn't work and Google should be my friend, but in this particular problem, it's acting more like my enemy.
