View 3 RepliesI have a simple event listener which calls a functions which first uses a switch case statement to determine what evt.target was pressed by name so I can assign info there--presently I just have trace statements--the problem is that it only works once and then I just get instance29 and the switch case evaluates to the default.
Code:
lifering1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, playSplash,false,0,true);
function playSplash(evt:MouseEvent):void
{

i have a main-movie with a movieclip called "area", into this movieclip is loaded an external movie.swf
a clip inside this movie.swf has the below script
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_level0.area.displayfield = "hello"
[code].....
I used as usual: this.menu_buttons_mc.menu_01_mc.menu_01_btn.onRele ase = function ()
{ trace ("this.menu_buttons_mc.menu_01_mc.menu_01_btn.onRe lease CALLED");}; But problem ist : it works only for one btn. Why? Try click the second flake from above and see AS layer please. I think it would be easy for you but diffic. for me.
I've set up an event listener to check if an image has been loaded. If yes, then change the width and height of it. I achieved this by using .target.loader.content. It works fine on my machine, but things are different, when I upload the swf to the server. the images get loaded, but aren't resized as they were offline. What might be causing this? What changes should I do in the snippet to get it working.This is the function that is called using the eventListenerfunction setImage(evt:Event){ sig_txt.text =evt.currentTarget.content.toString(); var loader:Bitmap = evt.target.loader.content as Bitmap; gallery_mc.addChild(loader); var ratio:Number = loader.width / loader.height; loader.width = 100; loader.height = 100 / ratio; loader.y = total_height; total_height += loader.height + 20
View 11 RepliesI have a movie clip with 15 frames. Each frame has buttons on it (mc's)... I was going to put the actions on the main timeline/stage and navigate within the MC from the main timeline. Is that possible? I can get the buttons on the first frame of the MC to work, but I can't seem to figure out how to target/make the buttons on the other frames work? I was thinking I could identify the path of the MC with the frame labels, but that doesn't seem to work. like: _root.RMChanger.(frame label).buttonOnFrame = function
I have to move a text box in and out over the MC backgrounds on the main stage... which is why I was thinking to do it this way? I've been switching back and forth bwtween AS2.0 and 3.0
im working on a zoom/pan gallery and i have a problem that i can't solve.URL...the pan buttons are not working but the zoom and reset buttons works. im working on movie the image using the mouse now, if you will hold the image and move it it will drag it on stage.the image is a loader the loads and image and placed on screen.there is a mask on top of it and a frame that indicates the size of the gallery.when the user pan the image loader content i want it to stop as soon as it gets to the gallery frame,but i cant seem to find the best way to do it.so basicly when the image is in 100% i dont want the user to be able to drag it but after you zoom the user will be able to drag it but only to the edge of the frame so there wont be any white spaces.i tried a lot of different ways to do it but all of them are complicated and not working the way that i want them to work.
View 2 RepliesI have gallery which I want to modify. Now, I load big image on the stage by clicking thumbnail menu. I can see a small preview of that thumbnail on mouse over. Thumbnail preview is done by cloning thumbnail image and nest that image into thumbnail preview window.

However, it did not work yet. I do something wrong. I am wondering if someone can help me to figure it out. I spent a lot of time to modify it as It looked like a simple thing but without any success. I will provide more information if needed. The project consists of many classes I can explain more if the information I provided is not enough.
I just recently been using a lot of prototype javascript stuff, and was wondering there was anything like the "bind" method, for use in AS3. It's proved quite useful to be able to look both at the event.target as well as the class object the handler function might be associated with.

I am currently having a problem adding the Tell Target action to a button.
The following is the hierarchy of my timeline:
-Root

The Movie Clip i'm trying to control is "About". This MC is also placed within the 'Over' state of "Button"
I keep receiving the Target Not Found error in Base="_level0.FadeIn"

I am creating my first flash website and have hit a wall, i have four buttons"HOME, ABOUT, PORTFOLIO, CONTACT" and each button plays through the same movie clip from different points. ie the labels.
"HOME" being the first part of the movie and "CONTACT" being the last section with "ABOUT & PORTFOLIO" playing the sections inbetween.
but what i am trying to do is make it so that when i am at the home section and click "CONTACT..etc." i want the movie clip to play all the way through the about & portfolio sections to get there, and back again if i click one of the others*(from contact to the about, home or portfolio section)
I just imported a video file with 2 sections titled:
music
light
This should help:
So this code works perfect with a componant button but I can't make it work with a normal one. Why? What is so different about them. Why can't I make a normal button and give it the same name "my_button"
For some reason even if I name the button the same thing as the component button it no longer works
I've started my first flash movie and it works in IE but not in Firefox. Can anyone help me out? Here is the code that I am using (I pulled the syntax from a web site and modified it):

The garage door has a chevrolet logo on it that is pulsating. I know how to make buttons but I need the garage door to become a button that when clicked the animation plays rather than it playing automatically.The top of the tool chest will be a button that plays the animation in reverse and the drawers are buttons that open to an email form for each. But I don't know how to target these buttons because they are nested two levels below the main timeline.

how to make a video start playing at a specified point in the middle of the video rather than from the beginning. Not sure if it's something that easily can be done in Dreamweaver or if it's involved with the flash settings.

View 3 RepliesI'm having trouble with a simple AS3 (CS5.5) project I have imported a video encoded through Adobe media encoder as a FLV file and have added a Navigation Cue Point at the end of the video as I would like the video to simply go to a frame number when the video has ended so it doesn't stop on that video.
I have used a code I have used on many occasions in AS2 which I put on a keyframe at the top where the video runs under and give the video an instance name of vid:

Ideally I just want the code go to a frame number when the video finishes instead of staying on the video.
I have a video that I don't want the beginning of, I know how to set the Cue Points but I am not very familiar with ActionScript 3.0 and would like to learn some code to start my video out at a cue point so I can put this video inside another flash video.
View 0 RepliesI'm simply trying to load an external swf on a cue point in an F4V video. I used the FLVPlayback component to add a cue point where I want it, and I have a separate swf that's just an animated button I want to play, but I can't figure out the AS to use to play the swf on the cue point.
View 2 RepliesUsing flash 8 pro, I've imported a video clip and embedded cue points at the first and last frames - these are named 'intro' and 'outro'. I have the flv paused at the first and last frames via the component inspector, and it is a 'talking head' type affair - all good so far.
At the very end of the video clip I want the 'outro' cue point to dynamically load a movie clip from the library with the linkage name 'p-overlay_mc' which will, in effect, blend a logo over the video when it ends. Can this be done?
I guess this sort of cue point triggered event is the equivalent of an 'enterFrame' event. My guess is that i will need a script from the root timeline targetting the cue point within the .flv, but i really don't know the script needed.
Intro:I started a flash-based website a few years ago. Back in 2006 I was able to get a xml scrolling thumbnail, image loader to work without a glitch.For numerous reasons I had to put the project on hold until now. [one was that my 30 day trial of flash expired and only recently was I able to purchase the Adobe Web Suite CS4 as well as a new computer which could run the apps.]
Last Friday saw a bump in the road in the development of my site as two, rather straightforward task, turned into something short of a nightmare as I have been unable to get past these two, seemingly, relatively simple task.I have posted in 4 other flash forums the issues, in detail, that I am facing - and have quite a bit of interest/views in the topic as the numbers suggest - yet no response/answer as of yet. [Which confirms other messages I have seen which seem to state that working with buttons has become increasingly difficult with the newer version of flash - something Im a bit surprised with actually from Adobe. - I would have thought there would be a palette where you could set parameters...]
Screenshot of Site/Timeline: Before getting into the two questions I have, I would like to post an image of the site as it looks whenever an swf file is saved out, as well as a piece of the timeline in the back for reference.As of now when the swf file is saved out you get exactly what you see above:
a: A scrolling thumbnail
b: ...which loads a large image when clicked on it - PEFECT...
BUT...1a: I need for the buttons to load in this action, not for it to just load on its own.[i.e., the silk_paintings gallery is what is open, so I need the "silk_paintings" button to call up this action]
note: Initially I had attacked this problem by taking out the actions layer you see above and applying it directly to the individual buttons with some crude MouseEvent Listener/Handerls... that did not work - at all.Im sure it may be "easier" to make an array out of it, but with my coding level it may be "easier" to apply it to the buttons.
1b: How I currently see it, I would take the xml-list and duplicate it for the number of galleries I have.[I would then re-name the xml-list to reflect the name of the galleries they are to represent, i.e. "silk_paintings"][also, I would have to rename the folders to "thumbnails1,2,3, etc., & "images 1,2,3, etc"
From there I would duplicate the actions and paste it into the buttons, changing the xml-list name to that of "silk_paintings", etc., as well as write in the MouseEvent listener Handler to make it work. [ah, ha, but what is that magic phrase, I have tried to implement various code from other tutorials, and all in vein.]
At this point I would be tickled pink just to get this to basic function to work.However, once the buttons are working and calling up the xml, etc., then I need the buttons to stay on the semi-transparent blue color it is whenever in the 'hit' state. [note: NOT pictured above.]With the way the buttons are currently set up, and with wanting to use scripting to get them to interact with the thumbnail gallery, it will have to be some miraculous code to tell that button what color to stay as whenever its clicked, and of course it going back to white when another button is clicked.
Conclusion:Since this is an Adobe Forum I would like to make a few additional statements in hopes that the developers, etc. may take heed.Adobes products are not cheap, and when I went to purchase the websuite I went in as a designer needing a program as not to need to program.I understand the flexibility that coding gives, but something as simple as linking buttons should not be in the realms of rocket science.
