ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Slider Bar Reveal Movie Clips On Stage As Drag It Along And Alpha Values
Feb 25, 2010
I'm looking to make a slider bar reveal movie clips on my stage as you drag it along. I've written some sloppy code that works, but isn't smooth by any means. I basically put MCs on different frames on the timeline, and I want those MCs to fade in or out relative to where the pointer is on the bar. This was a workaround, what I think I need is a boolean solution, but I'm not familiar enough with AS to write one from scratch. Here is the code I have so far. Does anyone have any ideas?

I have seven loops in total. I imported them into the library. i've put each of them in a seperate movie clip with the names loop1,loop2,.In those movie clips, the first (key)frame contains the action stop(); . The second frame is a keyframe too and from here on the sound starts. And of course they loop.Okay, now the buttons to control the movie (Prev, Stop, Play, Next) work fine, but let me explain the system i used. I used a var loopnumber and everytime you click Next or Prev, it '+'es 1 or '-'es 1. I also set a variable number_to_play = "_root.loop"+loopnumber, so you would get _root.loop--number--, where --number-- is 1,2,3,4,5,6 or 7. To actually play the sound, i used tellTarget(number_to_play) {gotoAndPlay(2)}.That's why i added stop(); to the first frame of those clips.how can i make a volume slider for those sounds inside my movie clips ? I've checked this forum already for questions like this but they don't use the system I use.

I'm trying to make a short clip = a website introduction - where feathers fall from above the stage eventually covering it completely. I've created movie clip with the animation (motion via motion tweens) - and what I'd like is for multiple instances of the Movie Clip to appear above the stage, then the Movie Clip to play, hence feathers falling randomly.I'd also like to put a time delay on the appearing of each new instance (ideally random) so that when the movie clip plays the falling feathers aren't perfectly synchronised (which they would be were all the instances to appear at the same time).I've tried playing with the scripts suggested in this thread with limited success: showthread.php3?t=259911(Also, I'd ideally like to change the tint on each movie clip (to a limited set of colours) instance to vary the colour of the feathers, but that's maybe a complication too far for the moment!

I have an issue with adding a reset button to my drag and drop movie clips.The problem is, if a student drags a movie clip to a wrong location on the SWF file I want them to be able to hit a reset button that would take them the same SWF that they opened and what would showup would a clear page for them to restart their drag and drop exercise.I know how to make the button for this just want the proper action script to be able for user to start over with no movie clip symbols on the page.

I have multiple movie clips on stage (all in separate layers, of course) as well as buttons on stage to play each movie clip. There are buttons inside each movie clip. The problem is that the buttons inside the top layered movie clip work, but the others in the movie clips below don't.

I know how to change the alpha of one movie clip at a time on rollover, rollout, and release. But I'm a bit stuck trying to figure out how I would change the alpha of multiple movie clips, when one is clicked. It's for a simple photo gallery and I want all the thumbnails to darken once one has been clicked & the image is loading. I can't just fake it by having a somewhat transparent black movie clip appear over everything, because I need the alpha of each thumbnail to be able to change again once people roll over a new thumbnail.(a section of my code is included for reference but there are like 30 thumbnails so I didn't include it all, the code is the same for everything)
Code:
thumb_001.onRollOver = over;
thumb_001.onPress = down;
thumb_001.onRollOut = out;
thumb_001.onRelease () {

I have created a website on the time line. There is actionscipt contolling which frame to play via a button. Within this button is a movieclip with a fade in using alpha on its own timeline with a stop(); at the end.The problem is I only want it to play when you first see it from moving to that page from the main timeline. Currently if i move over the button it plays the movie again which i dont want to happen. I do however want to retain the over states etc for the button.

I'm working on a simple movie clip that shows a few lines of outline text. Audio will eventually accompany the text, and to make the clip more "interesting" from a viewer perspective I've been asked to fade in the text line by line as the clip progresses. I hadn't expected any trouble with this...I created the text clips individually, converted them to symbols, then applied alpha=0 at appropriate points, then inserted a motion tween to transition to the same clip with alpha = 100.
The problem I'm seeing is that when I publish the swf and open it, it just shows me all the text immediately, no fade in, no nothing. When I click Control->Play while in editing mode in Flash, the clip behaves as I'd expect. Is there some feature of text clips that prevents them from behaving as expected in this context?

I am trying to create a basic timeline, similar to the timeline we all use in flash (see attached).
I have a playhead slider, which when dragged, just drags within its startDrag() limits.
I also have horizontal window scroller which also when dragged, just drags within its startDrag() limits.
I am trying to work out how to get the horizontal window scroller to scroll when the playhead slider hits the left or right edge. I am using hittest for this collision.
I have the playHeadSlider scrolling along the top. When playHeadSlider collides with hittestThing I want mcContents to then move.
It kind of works.. mcContents moves when the playHeadSlider is in collision with the hittestThing.. but it just moves rather than 'drags' across. I have it set up so that mcContents is twice the width (approx) of mcScrollWindow.
I need to somehow update what I have so that if the playHeadSlider collides with hittestThing on the right, mcContents only moves to the right and if playHeadSlider collides with hittestThing2 on the left, mcContents only moves to the left.

I've got five movie clips (called horse1 through horse5) and I want to sort them to find out which has the highest x value. I thought putting them into an array and sorting that would be the best idea but I can't seem to get even the array to work.
This is the code I have so far;
for (n=1; n<6; n++) {
var hr = "horse"+[n];
myArray=[["horse"+[n], _level0.hr._x]];
[Code].....

I've gotten these sliders to work but can't get the output values to add up. For instance, depending on the values for slider 1, 2 and 3, I need the total to show up in a separate text box. I keep getting a NaN message in the text box.Here's the code I have so far:

I've set up a simple enter frame loop to adjust the alpha on a grid of movie clips ("bubbles") using a distance formula from the mouse pointer.I've got a hunch that while this works fine, there's a more efficient or processor friendly way to do it.
grid of mc's created here....and pushed into an array
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
function loop(e:Event):void{ for each (var j in bubbArray)[code].....

I need to make a swf that could help him to rearrange things. Basically it means: there will be one picture with the plan of the warehouse and lots of little objects that he could drag onto the plan to see how it would work. (Damn. I am not so good in explaining.) I would like it to work like this: He goes to the page, clicks on button that creates one predrawn object to page and then he could drag it to plan. There are maybe 20 different objects.

I have a magnifier made of two movieclips, glass_mc and handle_mc. The glass_mc is a mask revealing an image in a layer below. Now I want the handle to move like this:
on (press) {
startDrag(handle_mc, false);
}
on (release) {
stopDrag();
}
(See attached example)
But this script can only take care of one movieclip. I want the glass_mc to follow as well

I have a button that has an onPress function that attaches a movieclip with startDrag(true) so the attached movie snaps to the mouse and can be dragged around. The problem is that I don't know how to set up the onRelease function so that when the mouse button is lifted the attached movieclip is removed. Also, the attached movie appears in the upper left corner for just an instant before snapping to the mouse.

I programmatically added 20 instances of a movie clip named "Token" to the stage. Token consists of a small rectangle and a dynamic text field. Each instance of Token was named "tkn." I'm attempting implement drag & drop for these movie clips. In the drag function which is called by the Mouse_Down event I've traced e.target.name. Instead of getting the name of the movie clip, tkn, I get name of the text field contained within tkn. After a lot of searching I found the mouseChildren property and within the code for the movie clip I now have the statement "this.mouseChildren = false;" This change corrected the name problem. I no longer get the name of the text field, but the movie clip name has been changed to "instancexxx," where xxx is a 3 digit number. Since I only want to drag the tkn movie clips I am testing e.target.name. How do I get Flash to keep the name of the movie clip as tkn?

I need to set up a Flash swf that enables me to drag and drop a series of shapes from point A to their individual point Bs. However, I need to ensure that this can only be done in a particular sequence. i.e. shape 1 must be moved first, then shape 2, etc. If the wrong shape is moved out of sequence, it snaps back to the starting position until the user moves the correct one.I have the following actionscript on a button within the movie clip which drags :
on(press) {
startDrag(this);
}
on(release) {
stopDrag();
[code]....
I need some way for the dragging and placing of each shape to only occur if the shape before it in the sequence has already been placed correctly.
