Created a text move clip that I have added Motion Tween, It works when I Play. But when I test Movie clip it does not work. What is the action script code to have it start when the it is loded in test.SWF?
View 6 RepliesI am new to AS3 and am trying to work out how to stop a movie clip from playing on mouse click. At the moment I have created a movieclip which plays when the user clicks it, but I now want to be able to stop the movieclip if the user clicks on it again. At the moment I have the following code:
stop();bigTree_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickplayAnimation);
function onClickplayAnimation(event:MouseEvent):void { bigTree_mc.play(); }
The tree animation plays fine, but i want to be able to stop it if the user clicks it again.
I'm attempting to create a movie clip animation that plays a loop when you mouseover and when you mouse out off of the movie clip i want the loop to stop at that current frame and stay there until the next mouse over event which would then start playing the movieclip at "last" frame prior to the mouseout.
View 1 RepliesI have one movie clip that when clicked on moves to the left of the screen, after it gets there I want another and exteral swf to load. But I dont know how to get the external clip to load after the movie clip gets to the left side of the screen....Here is what I got so far..
square_mc.onRelease = function()
{ square_mc._x = 30;
square_mc._y = 180;
[code]....
when square_mc get to the Y position of 180, run the external clip.
I have a movie clip container that contains 7 smaller movie clips, images converted to movie clips actually. This is a scrolling banner that can scroll left or right.
How do I start in the middle of this banner instead of the far left? That is, when the script first loads I want to be able to scroll left and right, not just right.
How do I insert a start button on the first frame of a movie clip that will then disappear after the movie starts playing?

View 1 Repliesi'm trying to write the code for a flash animation which uses different movie clips and buttons.all the movie clips are in the same layer but i've written code to make all but one invisible when the animation loads.
dance._visible = false;
harmonica._visible = false;
violin._visible = false;
i've then got buttons which are supposed to make the movie clips visible, but then disapear again after the clip has played.i want to be able to press one button to have one clip start playing, but then i want to be able to press another button which stops that movie clip and starts a new one playing.this is what i came up with but it doesn't work
on (press) {
violin.stop();
harmonica.stop();[code]....
this script is from one of the buttons which is supposed to start the movieclip harmonica and stop violin playing.i've got the same code for violin but the other way round.when i press a button it works fine and plays the clip which then disapears (leaving a default clip which plays all the time visible) but pressing buttons to interrupt the clip and play another one don't work properly. the movie clips don't stop and reset when they are interupted. they kind of pause instead. when i go to play a clip that has previously been interrupted it starts from where it has been paused and not from the beginning
I just followed this tutorial and I did get how it all worked.. and i got my movie clip flying arround the stage. Then when i tried to apply it to a little project i'm working on, i couldn't get it working. I have a movie clip called mc_main and when i click a button I want it to move - using easing - to a new position on the stage. In the first frame of my timeline i have put this AS:

I've been trying to load a movie clip from a movie clip that has been loaded. I am trying to provide a simple means to change the look / feel of the flash application by placing the graphics and controls into a second swf. Each different screen is represented by a different movie clip that is in the second swf. So I've got app.swf loading ui.swf. I want to load screen1_mc from ui.swf.
The app.swf is loaded by a master swf. There may be multiple copies of the app.swf that can be loaded by the master.swf and each app.swf could be configured differently. For each "unique" app.swf it is stored under a unique folder that is not known to me in advance. Since I don't know the unique folder in advance, I can't use import / export for runtime sharing. Is there any way to load the movie clips from the loaded movie clip? (Basically, I want to treat the ui.swf as an extension to the library.)
i have movie clip x (which is blank), and movie clip y, but movie clip is only on the timeline
how do i play movie clip y in movie clip x ??
I'm working on a flash site and I'm having some trouble with the programming for it. I'm not so great at action script, so I'm hoping that my troubles are caused by my own stupidity and that some cool smart person will have an answer for me.
So, I have a main menu flash file that functions like the one in this tutorial:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/p...transition.htm I set it to load various swf files and it's works just fine. What I want to do is have it load a swf that functions exactly the same (buttons that load external clips with transitions) as the main swf- this is a sub page menu. So, in theory, the sub menu page should load the final content, and three swfs would be seen stacked ontop of each other.
I changed the instance names in the sub menu file to be different than that in the main menu file. This fixed the original problem of it loading the content clip into the clip that the sub menu should stay in. Now, It loads the sub menu just fine, but then it gets stuck and never loads the content. The sub menu buttons will not function at all. Independent of the main menu, the sub menu file works perfectly What can I do??? Does it have anything to do with the "_root"? I never understood the concept, so I'm having trouble with it.
Is it possible (in AS2 or AS3) to have a button that starts a video as well as an MC at the same time? The idea being that the video will play alongside a movieclip that contains animated quotes from the dialog of the video, so syncing would be critical to.
View 1 RepliesI am working on a tabular file that when you click on one of the tabs (there is 7) you view the content of that layer.
The code I am using works fine:
on (release) {
land._visible = true;
Tab1._visible = false;
[Code]....
but when you view the "land" layer, go back to another tab and go back to the "land" layer it doesn't reload and start at frame 1 but the last frame you were at.
I desperately need it to "reload" when you release on the action above and to GoToAndPlay frame 1 but whatever code I try it won't do it.
I have a interactive movie clip with buttons. The problem I have with my movie clip is that whilst the movie is playing and I click the forebtn, it stops the movie. Ideally I would like the movie clip to start playing straight away when I press the fore button.

I was wondering about the flexability of loading movies into a movie clip. Currently, I am well able to load one movie into a movie "loader" clip, but thought maybe there is a way to load additional movie clips into that same "loader" clip, as i am starting to accumulate several different graphics that i need to have be inside movie clips so that i can make them change colors on the same frame when needed.
i shot from the hip and tried this code, but didnt have any luck:
mc_LCD_loader.attachMovie("hilight", "g", 1), ("header", "X", 1); mc_LCD_loader.g._x = 0; mc_LCD_loader.g._y = 1000;
mc_LCD_loader.X._x = 0; mc_LCD_loader.X._y = 1000;

I would like to set height after I load an external movie into a movie clip.
For example,
this.body_mc.loadMovie("body_about.swf");
_root._height = this.body_mc._height;
I always get height as 0, because body_mc is an empty movieClip.
how to access the body_about.swf height as soon as loaded the movie into the empty movie clip?
flash version: CS3 AS2 Im having trouble making the pages for a website im working on. I have a row of buttons, and I want each one to open its corrisponding page ie. contact_us_button to open contact_us movie clip. the thing is I want each page to transition in and out. so when I click contact us, the contact us movie clip fades in and stops. When I click about us, the contact us movie clip fades out and about us fades in.
Is the way to do this to make each page movie clip have a fade start and fade end, and have it stop before the fade end, and on another page click continue playing the current clip to get the fade out and then open the new page movie clip?
Here is the action scrip that I created. Correct it if you can.
Process.visible = false;
Cycles.visible = false;
stop();

View 1 RepliesI am trying to load a movie in a MC with playerLoader.loadMovie("lili_player.swf"); the clip that it is loading into is on the _root level. It is working fine when i test in from my machine in a browser, but as soon as I try to test it online it will not load.
View 5 RepliesI am trying to dynamically load "demon_mc" (from the library) into the "castle_mc" which already loaded from the library, but I want the "castle_mc" to be fully loaded and then the "demon_mc" starts loading.
let say:
The "castle_mc" consists of 15 frame and I want the "demon_mc" be loaded dynamiclly when "castle_mc" has reached frame 15.I used onClipEvent and then I wrote this condition if(currentFrame == totalFrames), but I guess my code it totally wrong.
This used to be so easy in AS1 and AS2, but since I haven't been using Flash in 2 years now. looks like time ran over me - and it looks like it'd take me a while before I figure this out in AS3. So, what I want to do is to call external swf into another movie clip and my stage is set like this.
In main timeline I have two layers:first is (center_mc) and contains movie clip "center_mc" which is positioned in the middle of stage and in the second layer (mbottom_mc) is movie clip "mbottom_mc" that will contain buttons as "menubtn01". So what I Want to do is when I click on this "menubtn01" to call external swf into THAT movie "center_mc". So to clear the external swf that "center_mc" is showing with the new.

Does anyone know what is wrong??
View 5 RepliesIn a movie clip, I have a function named addObject(string). Inside that function I am loading another movie clip (say, myObj1_mc) using attachMovie. After loading, I need to set the string passed to the text field inside the myObj1_mc. But it is not possible to do this immediately, because the movie clip will take some time to load after the attachMovie call. Means if we set this string in the next frame, it will be working. But in my case, I have to call addObject multiple times (from a single frame). In each time, different movie clips (say, myObj1_mc, myObj2_mc, etc.) are created dynamically and texts are set. So it would be better if I can wait until the movie clip (myObj1_mc) is loaded completely so that I can set the text, before the addObject function exit.
how can we wait, until a movie clip attached is completely functional.
Last time I wanted to load an external clip I could do it like this on (release) {

So now I want to achieve exactly the same thing in AS3, I have been looking at examples on the web but am getting all sorts of errors and basically don't know what I am doing. I also want to know how to navigate to .swf files in a file structure, as I have to build an old school fscommand file structure for a cd-rom.
Is there an event for when a movieClip loads that I can have other aspects of my flash movie react to? I would like to add an event listener for when movieClipOne loads that can trigger a different function in my actionscript (dim the rest of the stage).movieClipOne.addEventListener(Event.NAME, dimFunction);
View 3 RepliesI'm loading a movieclip into an empty movieclip on the stage and what I want is for the clip to 'zoom up' to 100% ( from say 30% size ).
I have been trying along these lines ( script attached to empty movieclip) :
onClipEvent(load) {
scaleAmt = 10;
this._alpha = 0;
[Code]....
This nearly does it, but the clip loading in scales from the left to right - I want it to scale up centrally?
I am making a survey which consists of 50 questions in which each question will play one movie clip and will ask the user to enter in a text box what they think about it. After that they click next and will go to the next clip
View 5 RepliesI want to display MovieClip "Loading" while loading an XML File, but something went wrong and MovieClip is displayed on the screen after the XML is loaded.the main idea is:when the Test object is added to the stage I call loadQuestions function
ActionScript Code:
private function onAddedToStage(event:Event):void
{
event.target.removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onAddedToStage);
loadQuestions();
}
it should display movie clip "loading" and load xml:
ActionScript Code:
public function loadQuestions()
{
[code]...
This code doesn't work as it should, because while xml is being loaded there is no MovieClip on the screen(it appears after to load is completed) [URL]
