ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop ENTER-FRAME Event After Two TWEENS?
Apr 21, 2010
How do you stop an ENTER_FRAME event after two tweens have executed?I have an AS3 package-based-classes Flash website loading nicely. The very last effect is the hover or active state for the button for the current page to tell the user what page they're on. I want the button's active state to execute using an ENTER_FRAME event and NOT using a Timer method. Mainly because I'd simply like to know how it's done and also because I've already used several timers to load the API. But, using the code below, I can't stop the ENTER_FRAME precisely after two tweens have fired - the Alpha tween and the Tweener that pulls the a blur effect into focus.[code]
I've tried several IF and ELSE IF conditions to tell Home.removeEventListener(Event. ENTER_ FRAME, OverState); exactly when to occur but the IF conditions either removeEventListener too soon, before the two tweens have fired, or the IF conditions just don't execute at all and the ENTER_FRAME trace continues on ad infinitum. You can use IF conditions that precisely operate on stage X and Y positions. But I can't figure out how to make an IF condition execute precisely after the two Tweens.How do you stop an ENTER_FRAME event PRECISELY after two tweens have executed so that Home.removeEventListener( Event.ENTER_ FRAME,OverState); executes at exactly the right point?

What I want to do is create a powerpoint style presentation. But rather than change slides, I have one large "graphic" that I am moving around and zooming into by "motion tweening". Now all I need to do is: (with a keyboard event)
Start the motion tween and then let it play out
Then start the next motion tween and let it play out
and so on...
All I have is this, which allows me to start and stop it when it is tweening, but isn't as effective as it stopping at then end of a motion tween, then allowing me to push a key and for it to go to the next "slide".
Code:
stop();
var isPlaying:Boolean = false;
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, keyUsed);
function keyUsed(event:KeyboardEvent){
if (isPlaying){
stop();
} else {
play();
} isPlaying = !isPlaying;
}

what I'm trying to do: I have an animation thats 173 frames long - an intro to a html based website. This swf file is embedded in the index.html, and is to load my "main-html", when the animation is complete.To try and do this iv'e tried with the following code in a blank keyframe in my as3 code layer on the last frame of the animation: [code]Upon completed animation it just goes into a frantic loop which seems to be trying to connect to my "main.html", but never have a chance to completely connect before it tires again.I have used similar code for my buttons, inside the page itself, which works just fine.

the code below is placed on one frame of the main timeline...it works, but apparently continually triggers the "gotoAndPlay" action over and over again. How can an ENTER_FRAME event be made to play a moive clip such as "staged_kiss_mc" only once?
The playhead on the main timeline rests in this single frame for a while; it would be great if "staged_kiss_mc" were to only play once, when the playhead first enters this frame, rather than apparently repeating continually...is there code to stop this repetition?

I have added a new tutorial on the EnterFrame event in ActionScript 3. This tutorial is almost 40 minutes in length and goes into the syntax of using the EnterFrame event and as an added feature there is a discussion on adding filters to a Sprite in
ActionScript 3.
I have also completed the polling system on the website. There are now three active polls asking the users of the site for their opinions on the tutorials, the website itself and what they would like to see developed in the way of future tutorials. Users can vote more than once, but I am tracking the user IP so that when it comes time to slice the data I can gather accurate information. Just thought I would announce that up front.
The next group of tutorials under development will be the conditional statements used in ActionScript. The IF, ELSE IF and SWITCH statements. I am looking forward to those tutorials as we can now start making the tutorials much more interesting putting
all we have learned together.

i created couple instances of movieclip with some simple animation inside, want it to animate when mouse is over, and animate backwards when mouse is out.[code]it works better, only one instance move, but if i move mouse over second instance before first one finish moving back to the first frame (and remove listener), again both instances animate together, like they are using the same timeline.

I have two buttons and a light blue circle. When you press the second button from the left, it changes the variable name to "boxTwo".In the circle video clip I have a enterframe with a condition to say, if the name is "boxTwo" play an animation, but it doesn't work.
Button:
Code:
on(release){
var name = "boxTwo";
_root[name].gotoAndStop(12);
trace(name);
}
On the circle MC that contains the animation
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
trace(_root.name);
if(_root.name == "boxTwo"){
circle.gotoAndPlay("loop");
}
}

I'm trying to do a simple url requestion on enter frame, but it seems to be executing multiple times?
I tried removing the event handler on handleLoadSuccessful, that seems to stop it firing infinitely, but its still executing about 10 times before it stops. How do I make it only fire once?
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onLoadHandler);
function onLoadHandler(event:Event) {
var scriptRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;254580535;19110122;t?http://www.gamespot.com.au/Ads/gswide/hp/1x1.gif");

I frequently see the usage of ENTER_FRAME and EXIT_FRAME event types in AS3 code. I can even use the first event type just blindly to get certain things done. But I want to clear my concepts on these very fundamental things. My qeries are as below:When do the above 2 event types take place - I mean what triggers them?Does ENTER_FRAME trigger at the rate of FPS? If a MovieClip spans over 48 frames and the FPS = 24 - does this mean the ENTER_FRAME will occur 48 times for the full life-span of the MovieClip?Regarding the EXIT_FRAME, I could not find any example or description yet.

I have a UILoader on the main timeline, then I have to load an external mc with a ENTER_FRAME event in it. When I load something else, I found the ENTER_FRAME event is still working. Why doesn't it unload with the mc?

I'm having trouble getting the Video class to work.. Everything works fine until I try to add an on enter frame event listener to the movie. I basically want to overlay an effect that gets updated every frame but adding the event listener causes the movie to freeze before it loads or on the first frame or just shortly after starting play back.. Check out the source code at [URL]
It freezes even if the enter frame method body is commented out so I don't think it's because of extra overhead..

I making an animation for a preloader.In the animation, a 'line' draws a picuture.There are many lines,and I would like a mask to follow the lines so that it appears that they are being drawn.There are so many that it would be difficult to do this manually by moving a mask frame by frame with motion tweens.

I'm trying to get a quick replay command, "pressing space returns the scene to the previous frame".
[Code]...
The current function returns me to a previous frame (40), however the event does not stop, rather it keeps on adding new events ontop of each other once it returns to main frame. The main frame being where the actionscript is executed.

I have a series of MCs in my root timeline. On each frame in the root, I am simply running 'stop();' to allow the MC within the frame to play through all the way. Once the timeline within the MC reaches the last frame, I have the following AS to go back to the root and play the next frame (each frame is labelled):

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.

I 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?

I am currently creating a menu system for a site, that when hovered over expands from a short strip into the larger menu containing buttons/graphics etc. To reduce the number of frames used within the site, i am trying to achieve this method using the tween class / onMotionFinished action as opposed to having a movieclip which plays through when hovered over. However if you move the mouse off before the "loading in" animation is complete, it begins the "reverse" animation and seperate titles both appear on top of eachother.
Basically i need to stop the tweens from playing, should the user hover away before they are complete, like a movieclip would "rewind" if you were using that well documented method. Below is the script, and I have attached the .fla for you to have a look at.

I have a Sprite that will do nothing more than move from the left side of the screen to the right side (think of a truck in Frogger!).I trigger that tween randomly, so it will get called multiple times. The strange thing happening is that when I do it like this:
Code:
var fahren:Tween = new Tween(truck,'x',None.easeNone,-50,600,50);
it tends to get to a point where it just freezes and nothing is happening anymore (although the rest of the app is still running).When I tell the tween to use seconds instead:
Code:
var fahren:Tween = new Tween(truck,'x',None.easeNone,-50,600,2,true);
it will work perfectly forever!

If I have an input text field on frame 1 and I enter text in it then I have a button that say sends me to frame 2. On frame 2 I have a button which sends me back to frame 1. Why when I got back to frame 1 is my text not shown?Why does an input text field go blank when leaving the frame? How can I make it so when i enter text on frame 1 and then go to frame 2 and then back to frame 1 the text i entered is still there?
