I hope the following is pretty self explanatory. There is a ball movie clip "mc1" on stage. The addEventHandler simply starts a tween and the ball rolls from left to right until it's off the stage. I'm simply trying to make the clip stop when it reaches a certain x value on stage. I'm trying to teach myself simple techniques for the if statement and loops.
[Code]...
ahoy there me hearties
Ive got a bit of a dilemma...
new Tween(clip,"_x",Bounce.easeInOut,clip._x,Stage.wid th,6,false);
new Tween(clip,"_x",Bounce.easeInOut,clip._x,Stage.hei ght,7,false);
what would be the correct way to write this to make clip go to the center of the stage and stop? At the moment it takes off to the left, never to be seen again..
basically on the stage I have my Menu movieclip which is linked to an actionscript class called Menu. Within this I have another movieclip, not linked to actionscript, just a plain old movieclip.
This movie in question is a dialog box, and contains an animation for it popping up, and then going away again. I'm trying to put actions on specific frames to make it stop when it reaches the middle of the animation, then when "ok" is pressed the animation will resume and it disappears again. However the actions on the frames don't seem to be getting executed. I tried putting "this.stop();" on the middle frame, and have since put "trace("hello?");" on all kinds of frames but it doesnt seem that the actionscript is getting called at all.
This is something for work so I don't really want to start sending the .fla file around, but instead is there anything I should know about things which could cause the frame actions to not be executed?
I made a multibutton menu and I have a sound set to play when you click each of the buttons but the sounds play over one another if buttons are pressed one right after the other. I know theres a way to make each sound stop using an if statement just cant figure it out.
View 0 RepliesBeen a while since i touched actionscript and forgot a simple If statement using _x. THis is the code that I have.
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
this._x = this._x +.5;
}
Now when this._x reaches 400 pixels on the screen, I want it to return back to zero. How do I do that again?

I've got my preloader working where it loads up the external swf. The thing is what I want to happen is instead of once the loading progress reaches 100% and starts playing my swf, I want the preloader to hold off on playing the Swf and simply allow me to trigger the playback with a button. I can't seem to figure out how to stop the swf from playing once it reaches 100%. here's my code
Code:
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var mclL:Object = new Object();
mclL.onLoadProgress = function(target, loaded, total) {[code].........
working on scrolling panel and trying to get the function to stop scrolling when the last frame in one direction is the last left to be displayed so it doesn't keep scrolling infinitely off the stage. here's what I have

rightscroll_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, rremoveFast);
function scrollRight(e:MouseEvent):void {

View 3 RepliesI have created a scrollable map which moves via mouse down buttons (left, right etc). Problem is I can't get the map to stop its scroll when it reaches its edge.
View 3 RepliesI have a movieclip I'm dragging and dropping. When I drag the clip outside of the stage, it gets stuck in drag mode and when I bring the cursor back onto the stage it suddenly snaps back onto the cursors position and it continues to drag (basically screwing up my drag and drop sequence). What I'd like is for the clip to stop dragging and snap back to its original X and Y position whenever you drag it outside the SWFs stage. I tried to achieve this by adding a listener to the stage to listen for a MOUSE_UP event when the drag begins. But its not working and I keep getting errors.[code]
Which I don't understand because dropClip isn't a property its a function. If anyone can explain how I need to modify my code to make the clip stop dragging or if I can constrain the drag so you can't drag it outside the stage in the first place that could perhaps work as well.

Basically I have a flash swf file (main.fla/main.swf) with 4 different movie clips.I figured out how to make the movie clip stop on rollover but now I am stuck on trying to load some xml content in my flash swf file.I have loaded xml in flash before but for some reason I cannot figure this one out. I have included my flash source file for anyone that can help.You can download it here:
[url]
Also Included is a file called "main-1-visual.gif" in a the folder called "What it should look like". I numbered the xml variables that need to be loaded:
1. The logo at the top
2. The title
3. The subtitle
4. The content text
5. Another title
6. Related links (This needs to link to specific URL links)
What I am trying to accomplish is this:
When you rollover one of the molecules (balls) that specific movie clip pauses (This works fines right now). BUT I also need to have a xml file specific to that molecule (ball) to load on the right side (see image "main-1-visual.gif") in it's appropriate movie clip. I also need the loaded xml to stay active until you rollover a different molecule (ball).
I have a movie clip called Lion Beginning_mc, inside of it I have 3 Key Frames and Inside each and one of them I have different shapes.
For example:
Key Frame number 01 - Dog
Key Frame number 02 - Cat
Key Frame number 03 - Mouse
I want to move this movie clip "Lion Beginning_mc" form Key frame number 1 to Key frame number 20.I want the Dog,Cat and a mouse to change between each other only once while moving from Key Frame number 1 to 20.And then when the movie clip "Lion Beginning_mc" reaches his goal another movie clip or a frame (with a shape) will start.
I am placing and modifying a movie clip using actionscript, and I want to know how I can use an if statement with the movie clip ending. I tried using this. but it didn't work:
addChild(thing);
thing.width = (500/3)+25;thing.x = 225;thing.y = 250;trace(thing.totalFrames);if (thing.currentFrame >= thing.totalFrames){ removeChild(thing);
}
It plays and resizes the movieclip, but doesn't get rid of it(i.e. it keeps looping). I also noticed that when I just used removeChild(thing); without the if statement, it only removed the graphics, and not the sound.
I have a movie clip on stage which length is 600 frames. I put a actionscript 3 code "stop();)" at the end of movie. it stops when it reaches to 600 frames but it disappears from the stage as well. Which I don't want. It should stop animating but stay with last fram which has a welcome message.

View 5 RepliesI have a .swf that loads into a movie clip in a Flash website. The .swf has all necessary stops to play once and stop once loaded. When tested outside of the movie clip, it does what it should, but once loaded, it loops forever and the speed is faster. How do I make this stop looping? (This only happenes to .swf that were made in CS4, doesn't happen with older .swfs that were made in Macromedia)
View 10 Repliesi just wrote a radial preloader. i have a problem though: there seems to be some "residue". it is for a small gallery.. so when i test the loader using the bandwidth simulation, the first time it look perfect, but the second time, i can see part of the preloader from the first frame, and as soon as the preloader reaches the leftover region, that region is cleared.

I have a very simple fla i built, all i need is the hover "over" stage to play this tween. On the keyframe I made it a symbol, movie clip. In there all the tweens are set exactly. It seems if you wanted motion on a stage,you would just put that clip on the over stage. I uploaded the fla file: [URL]
