How would I get a timer function to reset after no buttonswere pressed for 3 minutes?Right now I have my timer starting on load, and then when abutton is pressed, it stops it. I basically want to restart itafter 3 minutes.
the code I have:
[PHP]var timer:Timer = new Timer(5000);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, playSlides);
[code].....
What is the difference between Timer.stop() and Timer.reset() functions because it seems that the 2 functions do the same thing? I image Timer.stop() to stop the timer and when Timer.start() is called the timer starts from where it stopped. For example, if I have a 3 sec. timer (3000 ms). If I stop the timer after 2.5 sec. and start the timer again, I would expect the timer to expire/trip within .5 sec.
View 1 RepliesHow I can create a timer that will start from 00:00 and will stop at 3:25 or 2:53 and etc and stuck in that position? And I want it to be in a format of 59:59 (60 minutes and 60 seconds) and NOT in 99:99.

View 2 RepliesI have an application in which when i click on a particular tab an HTTPService having id="service" is sent. This service calls a php file which in turn extracts data from a table and return as xml string to Flex. Flex then use DataGrid's dataprovider attribute to show the data in the dataGrid.Can i have a functionality of a timer which will call the HTTPService again and again after each 5 minutes?
View 1 RepliesBefore I get started, I would like to point out that I'm just getting started in flash, so this may very well fit better under the newbies forum. The goal: I'm trying to put together a countdown timer, which can count down from preset amount of time to zero, then trigger an announcement event, as well as an event at 30 seconds, 1, 2, and 3 minutes left. Later on I hope to add in a setup for this to turn into a Debate timer with start/stop/next speech button, but for now, I just need to figure out the timer bit.

I'm on the last stage of developing my game, and I need to display a countdown timer, lasting 3 minutes. I want to display the time counting down in the format "3:00" and then when the timer hits the full 3 minutes an event is fired and it stops, and I display a few other things along with it in the same function. The difficulty I have is actually doing the bit where I display the timer and update it accordingly. If there is any genius out there who can do this (In AS3) then you are my new best friend. I only have a few hours till my submission deadline, and this thing is KILLING ME!!! hypothetically.

View 1 RepliesAny tutorials or source files for the timer. Just a simple timer that counts down by minutes and seconds for 10 minutes. The closest I got are a bunch of codes that I'm not really good at translating. Just a simple timer that will trigger the end quiz page when time is up.

/*This creates a new timer object, that fires every 1000 milliseconds (each second), and will fire 10 times after it is started, then stop. Next we will create an event listener that will catch the Timer event, and call a function "changeText".*/
var alienTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,10)
// declare an integer that starts the timer at 10! this shows the seconds left on the timer

how to reset timer back to zero I have a button in the parent timeline of the code below and when I click it I want the behavior of the time will go back to 1 or 0. Button clicked, timer back to 1 or 0.

I have an increment timer on a game I have created, but the thing is it refuses to reset at the end of the game.If I do timer.reset(); it is not visible then if I cal timer.start(); immediately after, it will continue from it's former position at the end of the 8th level.It's really annoying me as it's the only thing that won't seem to reset, everything else is fine.
function incrementCounter(event:TimerEvent) { count++; var whole_value:int = int(count / 100); var tenths:int = int(count / 10) % 10; var hundredths:int = int(count) % 10; gamePage.timer_txt.text = whole_value + "." + tenths + "s"; }
I have made a counter but i want it to reset 3 times a week at specific days of th week. I want it to reset first every Tuesday at 9:45,Every Thersday at 18:00 and every Saturday at 12:00
View 3 RepliesI have a kiosk set up to load external swf's, and to keep them up as long as they are being played with. Once the swf sits for two minutes without being touched it goes back the attract sequence, which leads to the menu, where you pick your swf...
I am having trouble with the timer I have set to restart the program. I have it set up to reset and start the Timer whenever the stage is clicked, which works fine the first time you open the swf. But if you exit the swf, and later it is opened again, it will restart after two minutes whether it is in use or not. Does anyone know what might cause this?

Having a little issue here with TIMER, basically I am looking for the timeline to advance 1 frame after 3 seconds, OR on MouseEvent.CLICK advance to next frame (before the 3 seconds it up). Which would then reset the TIMER. So, on CLICK go to next frame, OR wait 3 seconds and go to next frame (while having the TIMER reset both times). So...
Wait 3, (timer resets) wait 3, (timer resets) CLICK, (timer resets) CLICK, (timer resets) CLICK, (timer resets) wait 3, (timer resets)wait 3, (timer resets)CLICK, (timer resets)CLICK... You get the idea.My issue is the timeline, over time the TIMER time doubles, it doesn't reset... I am sure this is pretty basic and I am over thinking.

I'm wondering if there is a script that can tell the movie to go to a "time is up" frame after 2 minutes has gone by? Or do I have to do it the crappy way and literally create the necessary amount of frames that would take up the full 2 minutes manually?
View 3 RepliesBasically what happens is 5 eggs fall from the top of the screen. What I'm trying to have happen is, to have flash recognize when all 5 have been clicked and goto and stop on frame 3. The other problem is I want the animation to reset when the timer runs out. Thus clearing all current eggs off the stage. I've zipped the 2 files I'm working with the (fla and as files).

Couldn't find this anywhere online. What kind of reset function can I use to return to the last played caption node of a tt styled xml file. The xml file is loaded by a FLVPLayback Captioning component on the stage? I believe I need to use the track function?? And how do I set the track parameter in a tt styled xml file? Am I using the wrong XML file style (tt vs. DOM)?

Just new in forum and just new in as3 programming. All i want to do is to make some physics simulations (i'm physics teacher...). So i made my first sim with the following code, just to simulate a simple motion with constant velocity. It works ok, except the part i need to reset the display by the means to start the motion all over again (reset button). Then the motion starts but the traces of the previous motion remains on stage. I tried the null command (sp=null) but the sim could not start again because the sp nedded to be non-null...

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.
