I've got an MC calle "films" and inside of it I'm animation a bar of images across the screen from frame 1 - frame 180. At frame 180 and need it go back to frame 90 and play.I named fram 90 "repeat" and added the following code to frame 180:
stop();
this.gotoAndPlay("repeat");
But it doesn't goto 90 and play it goes back to 1 and plays.
For some reason i'm having problems swapping scenes in my flash movie. At first i put the action in a "actions" named layer and a link to a button. So basicly when scene1 loads the frame 1 action is "stop ();". The viewer clicks on button1 which has a code of;

I have a splash page with a logo. When the logo (splash_btn) is clicked I want it goto the site (frame label: home). All my code seems to be right but the button doesnt work.

After my MovieClip has finished playing once (and ended on the last frame with stop()), I can't get it to play again with gotoAndPlay(x). It will go the specified frame, but will not play from then on. Is there anything else I have to add to actually make it play?my attached sample file which contains a menu that, for testing purposes, is supposed to play someMovieClips when the initial loading process is done.
View 6 RepliesI am using Video (actionscript-controlled) component in my videoRecorder swf. What it does is it connects to webcam, record the video. This works fine. The problem comes when playing the flv back.After user stops the recording, I am using the same video component to play back the flv. But, it doesn't work. Checked the url, and its fine.When I use the same flv url in any flv player, the video gets played back. Am I missing something? Or Video (actionscript-controlled) can't handle playback videos?[code]
View 0 RepliesI have two embedded flv's in the timeline, one after the other. There are no errors in the video files. When the "playhead" in the exported swf comes to the end of the two combined videoclips, it jumps back to the first frame of the 2nd video clip for a fraction of a second, before playing from the start of the timeline as it is supposed to. I have explicitly done a "gotoandplay(1) in a separate action layer, at the last frame of the "movie", but that's not what happens.
View 0 RepliesAfter the HitTest, How do I use the gotoAndPlay to direct the the main timeline to goto frame 2, and not frame 2 of _root.circle MC? with _parent?
I know this might be a simple question, but my brain hurts from the previous 'debugging'.....
both of these give me the same results.

I've modified the code snippet "Bring Object to the Front" to bring a given stage symbol to the front on mouse over. My question is, what code do I add to make the symbol go to the back on mouse out? My code is below -- exact same as the code snippet in CS5, but with MOUSE_OVER in place of CLICK.

i am relatively new to AS3. I want to know how to gotoAndPlay back to scene1/parent to play frame there. I did they type casting but keep getting error Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Stage@2e793089 to flash.display.MovieClip. at test2_fla::backgroundC_13/fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame() Try this, create an empty AS3, create 2 layers, action and page. Create a button in page layer at frame1 and add title "home". Then press F6 at frame 5. Next, while on frame 5, select the button and convert it to movieclip, name it "background". Instance name "background" too.
Double click the background at the library, change the "home" to "Page2" Then at action, at frame 5, insert blank keyframe, and f9. In the action menu, type : stage.addChildAt(background,0). Next, go to frame 10 in action, insert a blank keyframe and add action: stop(); In your library, double click the movie clip again and select the button and add an event listener to go back to frame 1 of parent. This is where im stuck.
I have multiple frames with stop-points and labels on my timeline and an action where if the user holds down the button for >1 sec it will go to one frame, if <1 sec it will "gotoAndPlay" a warning animation. after that animation plays i want them to be sent back to the initial frame that they were previously in.
View 3 RepliesI have a ten-frame Flash doc. Seven of these frames have movie clips. What I want to do is be able to have a user navigate to another frame in the main timeline by clicking a button at the end of each movieclip.
I'm using this code:
on(release){
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1",6);
}
[Code]....
And I"m not getting errors but it's not working when I launch the movie.
At the first frame I created this simple drag&drop code (copy&paste it from somewhere on the net), all it does is drag&drop 3 movieclips:
ActionScript Code:
var dragArray:Array = [square, circle, triangle];
for(var i:int = 0; i < dragArray.length; i++) {
dragArray[i].buttonMode = true;
[Code]....
This causes the drag thingy to leave a trail on the original movieclip's position. I mean - I can drag the movieclip but it is being repainted again in its original position.
The problem doesn't occur if I remove the "addchild" inside the onMouseDown (but then - I need it in order to bring to front the movieclip).
i want to trigger a shine i labeld the frame shine created a hit area by making a box on a seprate layer and converting it to a symbol in the properties box and gave it an instance of shineStart
its not working im getting an error 1120: Access of undefined property _OVER.
my code is
shineStart.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, _OVER);
function _click(event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndPlay("shine");
}
gotoAndPlay() is the only actionscript I have in my flash and all I want it to do is go to a frame. If I tell it to go to a frame past a certain one it will not. It always (unless I pick a frame previous to the messed up one) goes to that frame. I have only one scene.
View 10 RepliesI have made a simple animation using only the timeline. The animation is covered by a button "Knapp" (alpha 0) wich activates the actions. The whole thing works fine the first time. The last action says go to and play frame 2, wich has two actions: stop + go to and play frame 4. But this action does not work the second time. I tried to set the action to frame 3 instead of 2 and the same problem occured on another action on the timeline as well.
Here is the last action on my timeline:
Knapp.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_11);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_11(event:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndPlay(2);}

View 6 RepliesUsing CS5 and Code Snippets, how do I tell the Timeline that when it gets to a specific frame to go to another one? I want it to go back and play the first frame to create a looping effect.
View 3 RepliesMy movie clip doesn't respond to gotoAndPlay(1) command at all. Here is the situation: The Main.fla has a movie clip instance "Mov1" and the following AS3 code in the first timeframe:
function LoadSWF(Mov:Object, swf:String ):void {
fl_Loader = new Loader();
fl_Loader.load(new URLRequest(swf));[code]......
Once it's loaded it plays once (there is a stop(); at the end).So far so good but... the following code in the button script doesn't trigger any action at all:
Mov1.gotoAndPlay(1);
Any other code in that button works fine, so the button itself works ok.
I made this movie in actionscript 2 and it needs a trigger. I have a counter, an integer called totalcount, and when that totalcount reaches 9, the program should jump to another scene.So I tried to put following code into the main timeline:
if (totalcount == 9) {
gotoAndPlay....
}
But even though I put a dynamic textbox on the stage with variable name totalcount, it works but it is never triggered.
I have a small flv embedded in the timeline of my movie clip (instance name = bg)
now what I want to happen is when I hit my button (instance name = b1)I want the bg movie clip to goto and play the from the next frame on the timeline.[code]...

I have a Flash movie that uses three scenes. In scene one I have a button with some actionscript to take it to a frame label in that first scene and play the movie from that point on. It works fine. The problem is, in the third scene, I am trying the same action with a different button, going to a different frame label in that third scene. I am getting an error saying the frame label does not exist in that scene. Even though it does! I've checked for typos and everything looks fine. I've copied and pasted the simple actionscript from the third scene below. Is there a line I need to add to make this work in a scene that is not the first scene?
rocketstart_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rocketbutton);
function rocketbutton(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("rocket");
}
I'm having a memory lasp. I trying to write for each button to goto and play at a label. what the correct code for that is please.ActionScript 3.
View 4 RepliesI have searched, and maybe I am searching wrong.. but I cant seem to find the same situation I am looking for. I have a "Home" scene that if I can explain it right by listing the individual frames.... would play like this:
frames 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 (then stop automatically.... then after the "ART" button was clicked .. it would continue and play like so) 11,12,13,14,15 then at frame 20 it would go to the "ART" scene
I am sure most figured it out that I have an intro scene.. that essentially builds the page and finishes at frame 10. And when a button is pressed.. it would play my Transition (which is just the same frames copied and reversed) ... and then go to the desired scene. So far I have it stopping at frame 10, that works smoothly.. but I dont know where or how or what to do to make a certain button play to the end then to go a specific scene.
I have this action on my buttons:
on (press) {
_root.nPage = "company";
AnimationMC.play();
} on (press) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
}
I am trying to have a button change frames on the main timeline (gotoAndPlay X) and also load a MC on the same click. I think what is happening is because the on(press) is separate it is causing my pages to load at different times when I click real fast when AnimationMC is playing. However if I wait for the animation to load first it works %99 of the time.
im trying to do is load an external swf file into a "base" file but play a certain frame number or label in the external file.I have a file called base.swf file which is level0In base.swf i have nothing but 1 frame with the following AS code:loadMovie("top.swf", 2);This works fine and loads and plays top.swf, but how can i load top.swf and play a certain frame label or number as soon as its loaded. Ive tried the following which does work but i hope it kinda explains what i want to do.
loadMovieNum("top.swf", 2);
tellTarget (_level2) {
gotoAndPlay("MyFrameLabel");
