I have a movie clip and I wanted to play until a specific frame for 1 time and I want a loop sequence for the rest of the frames. I managed to do it in flash combining 2 movie clips but I was wondering if and How I could do it with a code!
View 3 RepliesI've finished a site that has a listener with no scaling. Basically its the typical /2 deal to keep the movie clip centered. On a few images I have a 1 pixel black frame so the images need to remain on whole pixel locations to remain crisp. Generally everything works well but sometimes when you resize the browser just right it somehow puts them in between pixels.
View 2 RepliesBuilding a flash website in CS3. I've made every button the exact same way, draw a rectangle, convert to symbol, type as either button or movie clip (doesn't seem to matter and I'm not using rollover stuff), alpha 0% and stick it on its own layer above everything else.Action scrip is as follows:
main1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoMain);
main2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoMain);
function gotoMain(event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
that's with 2 buttons for main. I have the exact same code multiple times for many different buttons. It works everywhere except the last two buttons on my page will work the first time you click them from the main page, but then don't work after that until you click on the main page again. Then it works.These two:
babout3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoAboutb1);
bcontact3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoBcontact1);
the function is described on an earlier action keyframe:
bcontact1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoBcontact1);
function gotoBcontact1(event:MouseEvent):void[code]...
Of course I've tried just having one button do this and copy/pasting the button on different areas of the movie, but nothing I've done fixes. I've even gone through and deleted every button and AS and redone it. I've put every button on its own layer (shouldn't matter but I'm trying everything I can think of).if there is an easier way of using AS to navigate a flash movie let me know. The other options I've seen seem a bit too complex at the moment.
basically im making a quiz on my main timeline ive got my questions and answers and on the last frame i want it to say how many answers the user got right. ive made a movie clip on this last frame. in the movie clip ive got 11 frames with the posible totals so frame one would be 0/10 frame 2 would be 1/10 etc what i want to do is when the user clicks the correct answer on the other frames i want flash to make the frames within the movie clip to go 1 step forward.
View 2 RepliesI am just getting back into AS after about 4 years so bear with me. I have a movie that I show and remove as needed on my stage. The movie shows 2 frames of content that pauses between them so the view can see the data. I simply want to loop the frames when the movie is on stage. This is what I have written to control the movie.

I want to loop through a movie clip and assign a function to each of the clip's child movieclips. when i do a for...in loop and then do a typeof() trace I get "string" and obviously it won't let me assign lets say 'onRollOver' functions to the children.
View 6 RepliesI am importing a movie clip as a symbol from a SWF using Embed to a AS3 program and, after attaching the movie clip to the stage, the movie clip keeps repeating. Before you ask I have indeed creating a script layer and put a "stop()" on the last frame. In fact the swf containing the symbol works perfectly fine when executed on its own or in Flashdevelop (my choosen IDE). Its only when imported does the clip keep repeating.Here is the code:
Code:
package {

I'm trying to make a series of 16 short movies loop infinitely in a random order. I have a master movie clip called "random_mov" that has 17 frames. In frame one is an action:gotoAndStop(1 + Math.floor(Math.random() * 17));Frames 2 - 17 are my individual movies (movie1, movie2, movie3, etc...), one per frame. The code above does seem to work, but it only works once, looping a randomly selected frame forever. I need it to go back to frame one after each movie is complete so it can select another random frame
View 2 RepliesI make a button with some animated effects. On main work area I select object and press F8 to convert button with the name of (button1). The Up as it is which I make: w=70, h=50. Press F6 and same button on Over, here I again select object and press F8 and convert to Movie Clip. Here I insert 10 frames, one by one the button extend width and height. On 10th frame the button size 110x90 width and height. To animate and stop the button I put "stop" action on frame 10.I want that if the user's mouse over on button than the 10 frames play as I mentioned above but if the user don't want to click on (button1) than all of these 10 frames play reverse or add more frames and button will go to their original size and place. Is there any script bcuz I am new and don't know about action scripts.

View 9 RepliesI have a movieclip with an image fading in and out (using an actionscript tween class set to yoyo). This movieclip is loaded into a dummy movieclip when a button is pressed. The first time you click the button the fading movieclip plays as it should, fading in and out continuously. However, the second or subsequent times the button is clicked the fading movieclip goes crazy, half fading in/out and half jumping from one alpha value to another.

View 2 RepliesI have my files set up to where a main swf has the main navigation and a container which draws each sub page into it. The sub pages have a navigation as well that was telling buttons where to go on the main movie timeline (with _level0.) I had to move my navigation down in the main swf file so i took the nav off the main timeline and put it in a movie clip so i could move all at once. Now my sub pages on external swfs with _level0.gotoAndPlay("frame"); dont work.
Is there any way to direct an external swf to play a certain frame within a movie clip in another swf?
I've tried changing _level0 to _level1, _root, _parent, _child, and using _root.mc_name.gotoAndPlay("frame"). none of which has worked.

View 1 Repliescreate a variable that represents the number of frames in a movie clip? I thought maybe something like var = getProperty(my_mc, frames); might work, but it doesn't. I'm trying to make a "last" button for a template that goes to the last frame in a movie clip, and as we'll be updating and changing the number of frames in the movie clip quite often, I'd rather just have it find the last frame rather than have to update the actionscript every time.
View 2 RepliesThe first half of the tween doesn't work but the second half does. It only does this when I add the code link._visible = 0;. This is to make the alpha completly disappear.
View 1 RepliesIt's supposed to cause each of five movie objects to correspond and go to a different named frame when they are clicked. The problem is that regardless of which one is clicked, it always goes to "animation." I tested it out by changing the name of the animation frame. The result was that it then always went to the "publication" frame. It would seem that it goes to the last valid named frame in the script.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI have been having some trouble with a movie clip basically designed to act as a button for a store front for a website.This movie clip has, stored as the front of the movie (i.e. before you click in to edit the movie) the following code:
on(rollOver){
gotoAndPlay("Over");
}[code]..........
This gives the movie the hover over and out effect and animates the button so as once pressed the button expands to give a 'Product Details' view.However, when clicked the info shows up as it should but the hit area which I put into the Movie Clip is still on the info area so none of the contents on this new window are accessible and when the cursor leaves the designated info area the movie clip returns to its first stage as it would appear at the start of the animation.Is there any simple way to disable the HitArea on specific frames within a Movie Clip?
I am trying to use a movieclip as a button so I can have animation on the mouseover. I have been unable to get the button to work to change to a different frame. I can make the movieclip open a browser window, but not jump to another frame.Here is the code that I have in the button:

I have a movie clip symbol that is place on my main time line.I want the movie clip to display frames for (x) seconds then go to the next frame.I have a chunk of code that works by itself but when placed into my flash site it is causing some strange problems. Such as navigating to a label (page) prior to the movie clip that has the wait function code, freezes the flash.I am wondering if I need _root or a this in there somewhere.
The reason I want to do this is so I don't have to add a bunch of frames to get the pause time I need.Is there a way to use the code below and not have it cause problems with the rest of my time line?Here is the wait function code
stop();
i = 1;
function Wait() {[code].....
This seems a very basic question, but googled for long time... I have a movie clip, at Frame 3 there is only one line of code: stop(); My question is: how can I add it through AS? The instance name is my_mc, more specific, how to refer to the Frame 3 of my_mc?
Another question is the same. The movie clip has two frames, frame 1 is blank, at frame 2 there is a button. After attachMovie, get my_mc, trace my_mc, it is there, trace my_mc.my_button, it says undefined. How can I refer to my_button at frame 2? Then I can define onRollOver function for it.
Is there any code that basically says, if root frame = 2 then do this.. I basically need my movie clip to blur when the main scene hits certain frames. The movie clip pans around though with script thats why i cant just add a blurred image to a layer in the main scene.
