ActionScript 3.0 :: Get A Button To Target A Frame Label?
Jul 27, 2010
I am having trouble trying to get a button to target a frame label. Right now I have the button inside a movie clip and my idea was to have the click event target a frame label that is outside of the button movie clip. The frame label actually lives within the parent movie clip of the movie clip holding the button. I am using Action Script 3.0 so I am not sure what to do. And not sure if I should have the actionscript inside the nested movie clip or in the parent. Here is what I have so far...
/*
The parent movie clip is called "services_mc"
The nested movie clip holding the button is called "brandID_mc"
The button is called "goback_btn"
[code]...

Just wondering how this is done within an "if then" statement. I need a code like
if (_root.frame = "home") then {
this.quickHome.onPress = function () {
_root.gotoAndPlay ("homeToContact");
}
}
I know the first line isn't going to work, but just wondering if someone knew of a code that would?

there is a button on 1st frame. there is a movie clip on frame 2. I named the movie clip as "ball_mc" I want to go to frame 2 when I click on button on 1st frame. I know that the code "gotoAndPlay(2);" on button will work. But for some reasons, i want to try another way.... i tried several codes:
1. this.ball_mc.gotoAndPlay();
2. _level.ball_mc.gotoAndPlay();
3. _global.ball_mc.gotoAndPlay();
4. _root.ball_mc.gotoandPlay();
However these codes dun work. Is there other way to resolve this besides this code "gotoAndPlay(2)"?

Anyway what I need to do is have a movie clip finish playing when a button is clicked and then go to the frame label associated with the button. I hope I'm explaining myself ok. So if I had say 4 buttons Home Gallery About Contact If Contact is clicked then I want the Home page to play (Which is a fade out) and then go to Contact Page (which will fade in). Then If Gallery is clicked then I want Contact to fade out and then go to Gallery page and fade in.

What is the best (or the only way) to get a button in actionscript 3 to when clicked (released) jump to a specified frame label. I've seen a fair amount of little tutorials out there that can tell you how to link to a URL but not within the flash file itself.

I have a scroll menu as a ScrollPane component with menu buttons which take the user to a spacific frame lable within an external SWF (which is loaded form a main SWF already) My code for the botton is:
on (release){
_root.badges.gotoAndPlay("executive");
}
badges is the SWF name loaded as external SWF from a main stage (call this main.SWF) where the menu sits as well. "executive" is the frame label I want the timeline of badges.SWF to go to when you click the button, but this does not work?
It was working when I have this on another flash file. I recently had to move this into another flash file its still the same setup as in the other flash file, there is a loader clip and menu on the main timeline of my main.SWF and all it has to do is go to a specific frame label within the loaded external SWF from the main timeline of the main SWF.

I have three buttons, btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, and two movie clips, image_1,image_2. The names listed btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, image_1,image_2. are all instance names. All buttons and movie clips are on their own layer in a single frame on the main time line. the movie clips have a stop action on the first and last frame, with a frame label, on the first frame in the sub time line. For image_1 the frame label is image_1_1 and for image_2 the frame label is image_2_1.
I would like btn_1 and btn_2 to control the movie clips, image_1,image_2. Either button should be able to close the other buttons movie clip and play it's own movie clip. Also i am trying to make the movie clips themselves have the ability to be closed by clicking on the movie clip image area that is playing. Both movie clips when not playing hide behind the appropriate button with an alfa of 0.
When playing they expand to the middle of the window and are at 100% alfa, using a tween. The third button, btn_3 should only be visible when one or the other movie clisp are playing. btn_3 dose nothing else but this for now. As of now, my movies continuously loop and btn_3 is always visible. I can't seem to figure this out. my code for this action is:

After finally making a button with an animation in it, I get stuck with the button actually working. I followed this tutorial; [URL] for the most part. And when I link the button to an URL like it uses as an example in the tut it works. But when I want to link it to a frame label in my website it doesn't work. Atm the code in the movie clip on the hit area looks like;
on (rollOver, dragOver) {
gotoAndPlay("on");
}on (rollOut, dragOut) {
gotoAndPlay("off");
}on (release) {
gotoAndStop("Scene 1", "who")
}
The rollover/out works fine. But the link isn't working within the Flash file.
Here is the .fla: [URL]

I want to do something like gotoAndPlay(frame label) for a movie clip with the instance name content. I am using an array for my buttons placing multiple instances of the button mc on the stage. When I add content.gotoAndPlay I get an access of undefined property error. If I add it inside the parenthesis I get an expecting identifier before my frame label name error.

I started working actionscript 2 yesterday for a uni project. I was wondering if I can target a movie clip on a different frame from the scripted button. For instance would:
//
_root.my_mc._width
//
return defined if my_mc was on a different frame?

Is it possible to change a frame label within a gotoAndStop('label') with the parameters in a function?I'm playing around with updating code as I learn more and more techniques, and at the moment the code is a basic click-a-button to select the object shape, and on press the button disappears:
// Change the object into a circle.
circle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(circle_btn,circle);});
// Change the object into a square.
square_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(square_btn,square);});
[code]....
However I can't/don't seem to know how to change a frame label through function parameters, or if what I'm trying to do is even possible.Also to note, while I'm all ears for any more efficient ways of doing what I'm trying to do, I would still like to know how/if you can change frame labels through function parmeters.

I'm getting this error in the OUTPUT window, when I PREVIEW (COMMAND + RETURN) my SWF:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label nGallery_btn not found in scene Scene 1.
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at BrookBrovazMusic004_fla::MainTimeline/pageSelect()
- The funny thing is that the SWF works the way I want it to. You can view it here: http://brookbrovaz.com
- I just don't like the idea that something's wrong, according to the OUTPUT window anyway.

Yesterday Kglad gave me the following :
nextTX.onRelease = function (){var nextFrameLabelNum:Number = (1+Math.round(thTX._currentframe/27))%10;
thTX.gotoAndPlay("next "+nextFrameLabelNum);
}[code].....
which works great IF I am moving one image at a time.What I have done now is tween 3 slides to move into a visible mask by pressing next, but when I press previous of course the above doesn't work.It just jumps to the previous three with no tween.I would like to maintain the tween but in reverse.I would like the previous just to undo, in reverse, what the next button just did with the tween?Is there anyway to make this happen with as 2.0?

if its possible, via AS3, to create a frame label in a movieclip on a specific frame.
Obviously I can do it by manually by setting up labels on the timeline within the target movieclip, but I would rather use an array so I can loop through it, creating a label name on a the specific frame each time?
so for example I would end up with:
myLabelOne on frame 10
myLabelTwo on frame 25
myLabelThree on frame 115
etc

I am trying to use this if statement with a frame label instead of a frame number. I believe that _currentframe is looking for a number only. Is there a different command that looks at frame labels instead of frame numbers?

is it possible to find the frame number of frame label with AS if a button is rolled over, the timeline jumps to a label - which plays a set of 3D rendered frames to 'raise' and element, once a user rolls out of the 'button' area the button is meant to 'lower' - which can be done by simply playing backwards to the previous label.

I am loading a swf into an empty MC with this code:
on(release) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", _root.container);
}
what I want to do is also go to a specific frame or frame label in that loaded movie. I thought I could do it by adding something like this:
_root.containter.gotoAndPlay("frame");
