ActionScript 2.0 :: GotoAndPlay In Other Movie Clip
Nov 2, 2010I have some sendAndLoad code which works good. Instead of outputting something to a text box I'd like to go to a different place in my movie. I've got quite a few embedded movie clips and the path is the following:
pages_all -> action sc copy 12 -> action content copy 13. Within the pages_all movie clip I'd like to go to frame number 13. How can I use the gotoAndPlay function to go to another movie clip.
I did try the following:

ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX]: Using GotoAndPlay With An Empty Movie Clip?
Jan 15, 2003[fmx]
related files: 7MB .FLA File
Okay...
At the _root I have an instance using an empty clip named mainPageEmptyClip. Inside of that, are various other movies.
Now, at the _root there is a menu which, when clicked, should access one of the layers within the empty clip's content.
The problem here is that I can't discern what the target would be to actually access the clip. The action worked fine before I implemented the empty clip, but now it won't work any longer.
I've tried using the target tool built into FlashMX, but it doesn't list any of the instances withing mainPageEmptyClip - that's as far as it goes. I've tried entering in what would seem to be the path, based on the instance names of subordinate movies, but it does me no good - I'm continually given the error of Target Not Found.
These are the two options I've tried....
_root.mainPageEmptyClip.gotoAndPlay(351);
_root.mainPageEmptyClip.webLayer.gotoAndPlay(156);

Movie Clips - Layers On Root Timeline?
Feb 28, 2010I have only been using FLASH CS3 for a little under a month. I have messed about with it to create some basic stuff. However recently I started on a bit of a larger project. I 'm by no means an expert in FLASH CS3 or AS3.My problem -I created a .FLA file that has seven movie clips on the main timeline, each in its own layer. These are listed below in the order they appear within the main time line.
layer ------------ movie clip
ON -------------- on_mc
RIM ------------- rim_mc
NAV-------------- coverbase_mc
PLAYER---------- player_mc
MAIN------------- main_mc
NAMEBOX------- shellname_mc
BASE------------ Base_mc
The art work for these was all imported from adobe photoshop. They all only have one frame on the main timeline. Each movie clip though has its own internal time line and some have further nested movie clips within them.The issue occurs within the NAV layer/coverbase_mc. I placed a movie clip(to act as a button) within coverbase_mc. This movie clip is called navbut_mc.Now, I already have a couple of similar movie clips, that act as buttons, in on_mc and rim_mc these work as I intended them to. However navbut_mc does not work at all in its current position. I get no errors at all on testing the movie but the action that I want it to do does not work even buttonmode = true; will not work on it.
However, if I use the same movie clip in the rim.mc, but obviously give it a seperate instance name (start_mc), then it works as intended. I have looked at various diffrent things but have to admit i'm stummped. Its almost as if when its in coverbase_mc its being hidden by the clips above it, if thats possible.The reasons I need it to work in coverbase_mc are for a) the overall look of the project b)I have some other buttons in that location that need to work from there.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Root Movie Resize?
Dec 18, 2006My problem is this - I have a parent flash movie of size 900x800. I have a button inside this parent that then loads an external swf (size 300x200) into an empty mc in the parent.My problem is that when the external swf loads, it resizes the parent movie (or repositions it depending on whether I am using IE or Firefox).I can't seem to work out why or how it's happening, and it happens whether I use the standard Flash embedding or the swfobject method for my HTML page that the movie is embedded in.The actionscript code in the parent is very basic:
Code:
but1.onRelease = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("mp3_player", getNextHighestDepth());

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clips Reset On GotoAndStop/gotoAndPlay
Jan 19, 2010 I have an avatar that's made up of several child movie clip sink points such as head, arm, pants, etc. I'm trying to be able to swap out items, such as a new hat, new gun, etc dynamically based on the user's selection.
I'm able to modify a regular movie clip in AS3, but I've now moved to having a avatar that's composed of several labeled animations such as "walk" "idle" "jump", etc. The problem is, once I modify the avatar, and do a gotoAndStop("walk"), the avatar reloads all the original assets that were created when the avatar was rigged up.
