how can I use the play/stop-state of an audio-track as a boolean in a conditional? Something like ,if (trk1.play = 1) must be wrong, because "play" is a function and not a property, or not?
View 2 RepliesI have an animation that plays from the beguining to the end. I would like to add a conditional statement that IF the animation is Playing and the ANIMATION BUTTON is clicked, it stops and goes back to frame one. ELSE (if the animation is on frame one (not playing) it starts playing to the end.
My script goes like this -
animation_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startplaying);
function startplaying (event:MouseEvent);void{
play();
animation.play();
}
animation is the name of the animation time line.
give me the actionscript for a bar that has a play and stop button to play and stop frames in a flash movie. i would be gratefull if you could as i am really stuck
View 2 RepliesI can usually find what I need by searching. Not this time.I'm scaling an mc with a script.This is on the timeline of the parent:
stop();
MovieClip.prototype.easeScale = function (finalWidth, finalHeight, speed) {
this.onEnterFrame =function () { [code]...
I want to trigger another mc to play on the root once mask_mc reaches its finalHeight.I've tried if statements, but nothing really works.
I am using the script below to move from a flash menu to other URLs. It works fine except we need to play the sound completely before sending the browser to the new URL. We are using external sound files and AS3.

I just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.
Is it possible to play and stop a number of frames later, without using stop() in the frames? Like when I click a button frame 20 will start playing and it stops 30 frames later, all defined by the actions of the button..

View 3 RepliesI have created two buttons for separate audio files. Essentially if you click on the button it will play and stop. This works great! I have also injected a SoundMixer.stopAll(); to ensure if you click between both buttons that it will stop the current audio file to play the next one. My problem is when I select the 2nd button for the first time everything seems to be working...it's when I attempt to click on the first button again, that it will require 2 clicks and then it stops and plays accordingly...anyone know how I could eliminate this annoying two click process?

I want a movie clip (let's call it homecontent_MC) with 100 frames play to frame 80 and stop.Then when someone clicks a button on the navigation bar (home, about, services, contact, etc...) homecontent_MC would then begin playing from it's position (frame 80) til it reaches 100, at which point it wouldn't be on screen, and the movie clip that corresponds to the navigation button press (say services_MC...) would start from frame 1 and continue til it stops at it's frame 80...
View 7 RepliesI have modified the original to include more head shots accompanied by audio clips. I have worked out the playing of the clips on release. I realize now that people may not want to listen to entire clip. Each mug shot serves as the button to hear the person talk. I do not know how to modify the button code for it to be a toggle. I guess it would need to be some kind of "play if, stop if" The only part of concern is loading playing the the audio, no changes need to be made to the rollover functionality.
mugWidth = 60; //change these if you change the size of your mugshots
mugHeight = 60; //change to your mugshot height
//instantiate sound and textformat classes

how would you play the next 5 frames if the space bar was clicked and then stop the playhead?
View 4 RepliesI have just started with a complete new flash project with only one scene and a few buttons and one movieclip (for a button with sound and animation). Already now at the beginning the problems start - the movieclip plays although I have put in the head timeline:
stop();
The same problem when I put in the rest:
instans1.onPress = function (){ play();}instans2.onPress = function (){ gotoAndStop(50);}
I want a movie clip to play twice then stop. How do I do this?
View 3 RepliesI have an mc placed on the main stage that I'm trying to control through a separate button. I want the mc to play until a certain frame number is reached and then stop. I've got the following actionscript on the button instance:
Code:
on(rollOver){
if (mc._currentframe == 10){
mc.stop()
[Code]....
This is not working at all - the mc is not stopping at frame 10, just looping continuously
[URL]about 30 seconds into this flash, there is an FLV of a computer screen. The problem is, when I pause the swf, the flv keeps going. How do I get around this?1. Is it possible to convert the flv to swf?OR2. Is it possible to control the flv from the main timeline?
View 7 RepliesI'm making a movie where I want the movie to stop at particular frames.
I know I can use stop(); for that one.
Next I want the movie to start again after a mouse click or any key being pressed on the keyboard until I want it to stop again at another frame. Then start the same process.
I'm trying to make a slideshow type thing so you can understand why I want to do that.
What's the actionscript for this one? I don't want to involve any buttons?
when i use a button I won't to play an mc that is on the main time line and stop at a random frame. how can i do this? (actionscript 2). when i use gotoAndStop (random (47)); It goes directly to the frame but i wont it to play the hole time line until the random frame.
View 4 RepliesI just want to play and stop my movie on a key click.I don't want to have the drop menu open and have the user click 'play'. Isn't there some way they can just press any key and the animation will progress forward?
View 4 RepliesMy friend and I are working on a flash project in actionscript 3, and we are trying to interact with the timeline of a DisplayObject (such as stopping, playing, gotoAndStop/gotoAndPlay), the same way you would if it was a MovieClip. None of the regular commands to navigate the timeline are working on it. Is there any way that we could treat it as a MovieClip or inteact with it as if it was one?
View 7 RepliesI want my animation to STOP when I press SPACE, and then PLAY when I press SHIFT. This needs to be in AS3. The only catch is that my whole animation is composed of 5 Scenes. I'm confused as to where I should add the code. I have it in a class and it still doesnt work. I tried putting it on the 1st frame on Scene 1.
View 1 RepliesI have a product that I am showing call-outs on. Little dots that when rolled over trigers an animation and displays information about the feature. This in itself is no problem, I have seven of these set up as buttons that work when rolled over. However, the people I am setting this up for would like the animations to be on auto play when the user is not interacting with the flash piece within a greater page. I thought I could just build a movie clip with all of the animations compiled and let them run on a layer and then when a users curser came into view of the flash piece it would stop the movie and allow for the user to manually rollover the features.
View 2 RepliesI have a button that when clicked on, it enlarges and shows content inside the button. Now, there is more content inside this button that when clicked on, enlarges and shows more content. I have all that working fine.How can I create a "back" button that will play the same frames that I created my animation in, but play them in reverse to get the same animation but back. Is this the correct way of doing it, or do I need to create animated transitions for the reverse state as well.?
