I'm using AS3 to create some motion tweens in a game that I'm creating, though they have been pretty temperamental so far... Here's some code that places a movie clip on the stage and tweens it:
[Code]...
download the .fla (file updated for flash8) file, run it and you'll see the problem.
when i do this:
PHP Code:
_root.image._width=200;_root.image._height=200;
ist seems that the motion tweens don't work any more.
I have a project that works perfectly when I publish it for Flash Player. However, when I publish it in AIR (which the final project needs to be published in), selective MovieClip symbols lose their tweens. One contains a dynamic text box field thats updated with data input from the user, the other just contains static text. Other movie clip symbols have tweens that still work just fine, and other symbols like buttons are tweening fine.
View 2 RepliesI have 3 mc's that I have placed a tween on that fades them from 0% - 100% Alpha (simple fade-in effect). The animations are fine if I test the movie within Flash. However, after publishing, I lose all those tweens in my swf, and all I see are abrupt changes from 0% - 100% alpha. What could I be doing wrong?
View 2 RepliesI've been going over several tutorials and whatnot and I'm confused on the point of movie clip symbols and motion tweens. To me using the other tweens and symbols are "easier". Can someone explain to me why they're so beneficial to have been added to CS4/CS5? Except I understand that movie clip symbols can be adjusted using the 3D tools but is that the only difference?
View 1 Repliesi've got 5 images. i want the following things to happen:
1. the placeholder movie clip automatically tweens to adjust to the image's dimensions.
2. the transition between each image is a la: [URL] -- front page when you enter
3. the images stay on the screen for approx. 5 seconds each.
I want to load a random movie clip from the library to an empty clip on the stage called (bg_graphics). the clips in the library are called (green, blue, yellow).
View 5 RepliesNow, on a certain event (KEY_DOWN in this case) I want to replace one movie clip with another, which seemed pretty easy. Add the new object, move it to the correct place, then erase the current object.Apparently it's not. If the MovieClip is added to the stage, when I call
Code:
this.parent.removeChild(this)
, the MovieClip gets removed, then it reappears.

I have some (Eg. 10) Movie Clips on bottom of the Stage (aligned horizontally) with different sizes (different width & height). I want them to align vertically on middle of the stage with same gap (irrespective of their sizes) in between 2 Movie Clips. Is it possible using AS3 code?
View 3 RepliesI could code in movie clip by clicking on movie cilp on the stage but in As3 I could not do . Is this restricted to code on movie clip ?
View 7 RepliesI'm trying to reach a body of text which i turned into a movie clip which is on the main stage, and have it scroll up/down whenever it rolls over the designated hot spots. Here's what i have.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,down1,false,0,true);
function down1(e:MouseEvent):void {
if (mouseX>=0 && mouseX<=42 && mouseY>111.1 && mouseY<146.1) {

I'm going nuts trying to figure this out. I built an animation project at 630 pixels wide. Turns out the project needs to be 430 pixels wide. In CS3, using the classic tweens, I would simply resize the stage, Onion All, then resize everything on the stage at once. But with the new tween structure, it looks like I can't do a mass resize like that. Anything that's been tweened using the motion editor does not resize.
I know I can just create a new movie clip, paste all frames into it and then resize the MC, but I have some JPEGs of signatures that pixellate when they are resized that way. So, can you onion skin the new tweens? Is there a workaround?
Making a Comic book/Video game with Flash Action Script 2.0. Check out my blog ive uploaded a couple of demos on it.Anyways i want to make a movie clip appear on stage when the user finds a key. The movie clip would be used as a trigger to send the player into an other version of the second level where a door would now be unlockable (only if he has the key).I know how to make the hittest work its making the movie clip appear on stage with an action that is giving me problemes.
View 2 RepliesI'm having a little trouble with the following code. When a user clicks on a button, I would like to add the corresponding movie clip to the stage, and remove the previous movie clip. This code works, but I know I am adding all the movie clips onto the stage at once, which isn't what I want. I don't want the movie clips to tween onto the stage, I want them to just play.
var arrNavigation:Array = [{button:about_mcButton, page:about_mc},{button:n2_mcButton, page:services_mc},
{button:n3_mcButton, page:products_mc}]
for(var i=0;i<arrNavigation.length;i++){

i am still quite beginner. How come i cannot see the movie clip on the stage even though i tried to drag and drop the explosion movie clip from the library?
Another question: How to import and test by scrubbing the playhead between 0 and 20 frames to show the animation of explosion on the stage, not testing in flash format.
I'm having problems with a combobox that I've got set up to add a movie clip to the stage. What I'd like to happen is when a user selects an item from the comboBox the MovieClip is added to the stage. It kind of works but you have to click on the item twice for the MC to be added.Here's my code:
Code:
var IronsMC:Irons = new Irons();
product.addEventListener(ListEvent.ITEM_CLICK, ItemClickHandler);
function ItemClickHandler (event:ListEvent):void {

I'm trying to set the z index of a movie clip "volume_container" on the stage so it's on top of everything. Right now, the FLVPlaybackCaptioning component brings up captions on top of everything.
View 1 RepliesI have all my content inside a movieclip called 'allmenu' but im only resizing it to fit the stage with a timer hehe , is there any way it could be resized before you see it on the stage, because right now you get this glitchy resizing moment on every page.
PHP Code:
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.StageAlign;

I want to change variables on the main stage's code from within a movie clip.
Say for example, I want to change a variable called 'chair'
In AS2, this is how I would do it:
(on the main stage)
Code:
chair = 2;
(in the movie clip)
[Code].....
But all I get is a 1119 error saying 'Access of possibly undefined property chair through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.'
I'm trying to create a slideshow, using Flash CS3 and AS3. I have 6 thumbnails with buttons attached to them, and then 6 movieclip images placed on the stage manually, each on a different layer. Inside of each image MC (i.e. image01_mc is the instance name of the first image), the image is animated to enlarge outwards from the thumbnail to make a larger version of the image. Standard operating procedures, and all that. So far, the buttons successfully call upon the frame label inside the imageClips to enlarge.
The next part of the problem is that when clicking the next thumbnailButton, I want the currently enlarged image to diminish in size back to its thumbnail, so that the next image can take its place. I have a frame label inside those imageClips to make that animation.
I think, with my rudimentary understanding of AS3, that I need to find out which movie clip instance is on the stage, using If statements, with some code to gotoAndPlay the frame inside the imageClips that shrinks the image.
I've tried various combinations of If, Else if, getChildByName, etc, that I've found in numerous posts, but nothing seems to work.
I have a simple Flash website with the sections laid out the timeline with labels In one section called Media, I have a movie instance of a Flash movie gallery player. It loads just fine but when I leave that section to go to another, the sound of the video is still playing Visually it's not seen but the sound still plays.I suspect I need to put some sort of remove commamnd in the script but I'm having trouble getting the right result

View 1 RepliesSo im working on a game, and i have a mvoie clip of class cPlayer in the library, i also have a class cUser which is an object of a user in the game.
i have an array of users,and have user[0]:cUser = new cUser() loaded when the game starts, which allows me to keep track of that user.
how do i make it so that upon initialization of a cUser instance, it loads an instance of cPlayer (a movie clip in my library) onto the stage, and also control that movie clip from within my class?
is it possible to have each cUser instance control its own cPlayer, or does there need to be another array to keep the cPlayers also?
XD im still trying to wrap my mind around the flash class strucutres.
I've got the actual calculator part working fine, but depending on the number I want to display product recommendations. I thought the best way to do this would be to create movie clips with the products and use the addChild function to create new one.
Code:
stop();
equal_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, equClick);

I want to make a movie clip move anywhere outside the stage, but dont really know how should I do it, here is the codeI think that some changes should be made somewhere around math.random, where I put that // ???btw, I got this code from a tutorial where it was about attaching like 50 balls at once, making them move to random locations so there might be some useles things too the point is that I want a ball to be attached somewhere, preferably to the middle of the stage, and I want it to move in random direction with constant speed. I tried many ways of doing it, but the ball was changing direction every frame or other lame things happened

I've got a couple instances of the same movie clip on the stage. Via actionscript, I want to apply a tween to both instances. Then, when you click on the instance I want its tween to stop, but not affect the other instance. Does that make sense?

I'm looking for a way to duplicate a movie clip outside the stage in a random position. it doesnt have to be duplicated in that position, i can do onClipEvent(load) but i just need to know how to put a movie clip in a random position OUTSIDE the stage,
View 1 RepliesI've been fighting this one for weeks - I've tried changing the Document Properties, Publish Settings, and even placing huge white boxes behind the clips I want to preview ... all to no avail! What gives?
Basically, whenever I'm inside a nested movie clip, and Test Scene (Control-Alt-Enter), the animation is centered in the upper left of the stage, so I can only see the bottom-right quarter of the animation - the rest is off-stage and not visible!
