When I place one link in AS3 with a stop everything works great!
stop(); import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//---link1 var getLink1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.google.com");
[Code]....
In the following code, I call a separate swf file that uses xml to load in a series of images and automatically rotates them.If, in the Main movie, it goes to a new scene that doesn't hold this swf but before all the images are loaded, it continues to load all of them in the background.So, I tried to get it to close the loader when it goes to the new scene.But it isn't working. It's still streaming and loading the images in the background.
ActionScript Code:
var imageRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("imageRotator_01.swf");
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
[code].....
I cannot ascertain why the code for one set of navigation buttons I've created works, but similar code does not. The code is rather lengthy, but I've pulled out the salient components to see if the Interwebs could help.
Here's the script that IS working:
Listener code:
Code:
cswordbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,fetchcswordassets);
And the function code that goes with it:
Code:
function fetchcswordassets(e:MouseEvent):void{
var url:String = "knowntomeURL";
[Code].....
1) All of the actions are in a separate layer in the first frame;
2) There is only one scene;
3) I've given the same button a different instance name in many cases, to coincide with different expectations (URLs).
I have a few links in a game to take the user to to a page where they can buy a product. If I publish and test the game on my own machine all the links work fine but I have tested it on several other machines (macs and pcs) and the links are completely dead and nothing happens.[code]
View 2 RepliesSo my problem may be a little bigger than that, but I'm not certain. I'm creating a custom flash photo viewer for a client that dynamically loads the images with Loader objects. It takes a folder name in a specified directory on the server and calls a php page (using URLRequest) to get the workable contents of the folder. And then it loads it up from that array.
Here's the problem: it works FINE on my machine and every machine I've tested it on, but it DOESN'T work on my client's machine or some of his customer's machines. The loader bar that's at the bottom of the screen doesn't start to fill, which means that the images aren't starting to even load, and the status bar indicates that it continues to wait for a the server, yet never finishes waiting. This is consistent on a single machine, but varies across machines.
I've added diagnostics (a custom class I made to track certain vars and collect errors) to the thing to catch any errors, but it reports nothing on my client's machine. I've added flash version checking code, so the possibility of a lower version messing it up is gone... I guess my question is, is there anything (security, environment, etc) that I could have overlooked that doesn't allow request objects or something to work on certain machines?? I've been ripping my hair out trying to figure this out!

lately i've associated a class file (.as) to my movie and immediately after, when publishing the movie i got the following error message: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: URLRequest. as well as a couple of other related error messages: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method URLRequest. 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method navigateToURL. when i remove the link to the class file, the problem goes away. also, i have checked the class file for mentioning of "URLRequest" and nothing is there.
I'm making a website using flash,And on my movie it says Welcome to Blah Blah Blah,And then a button appears, To make sure my button works,The writing turns to bold and goes bigger,When the button appears it works and goes bigger, Until it reaches the point in the timeline where it has stop();It stops my movie from looping or restarting which is what i want, But it stops my buttons from working aswell, How to keep my button working but movie stops,If you want me to explain more just ask
View 1 RepliesI built a timeline based player with 2 menus and many videos that you can play.The buttons move the timeline to a frame label and the video plays. The back button has a stop function built in it so the video stops playing when its hit.It plays wonderfully locally but once on a server after a few clicks it boggs down and sometimes the audio from the last video remains playing even when prompted to stop. I was pointed to use the add and remove child functions to prevent this but being very new to Flash and 100% self taught i have zero idea on how to do this. The link to the player is[url]....Even if its a link to a tutorial or something.
View 3 RepliesI need someone to look at my clip for me and tell me why it's not working. I have the stop(); in frame one and the last frame, I just don't understand.I can't attach the file here because i only have winrar and winzip 12 (which creates a .zipx - which won't upload...i tried)
View 1 RepliesSo, I'm working on a presentation/site that houses multiple sections being loaded in as individual swfs. I have each section shoot to a preloader frame first that is set (with PreloadAssetManager) to preload multiple FLVs and the SWF itself.If I select a new section while the current one is loading, it does the correct process of switching sections and shooting back to the preloader, but then the preloader itself just stops working completely. If I try to access any section, it just sits at a blank preloader. of thing.
View 1 RepliesI created a movie with several nested movie clips. within these movies are stop actions to prevent the clips from playing at the wrong time. I created the gotoAndPlay/stop functions to play these clips at certain points of the animation. Now at first these actions worked smoothly and exactly as i wanted, however after several test movies, some of the gotoandplay/stop functions stoped working. Has ne 1 ever ecounterd this problem is there a way repair these actions without recreating the whole movie? i tried rewritting the scripts and still does not work.

View 2 RepliesI'm making a very simple menu in Flash CS4 using AS3. I have a stop() action on the first frame of my scene, but it keeps getting ignored and looping the whole thing. The only other code is that telling the buttons to gotoAndStop on certain frames.[URL]...
View 5 RepliesI have 2 main movie clips, one for the menu bar and one for the content, there is then a movie clip within each one of those, one to hold the set of buttons, and one to hold the content movie clips.

Code is as Follows: All of the code (bar a few stop() flags on cirtain frames) is located on frame 1 of the root, which is the only frame on the root.
barControl.barContent.barUp.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, menuSwitchHandle); barControl.barContent.barDown.addEventListener(Mou seEvent.CLICK, menuSwitchHandle); barControl.barContent.barMenu.vivaBtn.addEventList ener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vivaHandle);

I know how to use flash but i'm not highly advanced.I have started creating a website for a friend and when I have placed the stop action where I would like it to be on both scenes it still plays in a loop once i test the movie (ctrl+enter).
View 2 RepliesWithin my onLoadInit() function, I am trying to stop the loaded clip from playing till a certain time. But when I do:
_mc.stop(); the clip just keeps playing. But _mc._alpha = 0, works as I cannot see the slip anymore.
I'm working on a school project in flash cs5.We've been stuck with this for a few days now, scanning all pages in google to find. At the moment we have two scenes. The first scene sets up a menu, these buttons are for navigating to the other scenes. The second scene, pulls a movie into the screen.We've tried putting a stop(); at the end of the first scene, but it doesn't stop. It stops the movie in scene 2.We've tried stopping in scene 2 and tried with frame labels, but we're not sure if we did this in the correct way.

The stop() is not working properly as if it were being ignored. I have even recreated a dummy flash document the stop() did work, however, it is still not working on the original design.

So i'm making this site where there are bottles floating in the ocean that are nested buttons so i can have them sway as well as have a mask on the bottoms.When u click a button all bottles should move to the left side and eventually the content will appear.I've added a trace for debugging purposes ... for some reason the buttons only work a few times.[code]
View 4 RepliesI have a keyboardEvent which listens for pressed keys. I also have a NumericStepper. If I change the value in the NumericStepper, the keyboardEvent stops working (I think the reason is that the textField in the numericStepper, or the numericStepper itself, gets active). So, I've tried alot of things.
numericstepper.textField.enabled = false
numericstepper.textField.selectable = false
numericstepper.textField.editable = false etc...
But nothing seems to work.
I do not uderstand why the stop on the attached file does not work. If I change the profile to AS 2.0. it works but not using in AS 3.0. See attached file.

I have a funtion set up in my actionscript and I have the function start at frame 5 by doing:
functionName();
I'm trying to get the function to stop once it gets to frame 20. I was thinking something like functionName(stop); but that did not work.
how to make the function stop working?
I use Flash 8.I'm making this very simple Nav Box where on certain links open in a new window/tab. Those links work great.But most of the links are set to open in the same window that the Nav Box is on. When saving the SWF and HTML, the links work great.
The problem comes when I place it on other pages/sites. The "Self" links never work. Here are samples.

Neither page nor link in the Nav Box requires a Iframe nor anything "special" to work.Here are to version of the AS2 code I've tried (Using the Day Of Victory Ministries link as a sample)

Unless I'm mistaken, the way flash works, it matters not which server it is on so long as it's directory is public. This enables the flash to be placed on any page (via it's root link / Embedding code) and still have it's buttons work.
I am trying to write code for my char animation. in the scene I have 4 layers: character, sky, ground and actions. all are to symbols(except actions of course) .For my character symbol(movieclip) I have one still frame as default, 2 walk cycles, and a jump. all done on a timeline. the main problem im having is that it doesnt stop, as it is supposed to, on the first default frame.
i put stop(); in the first frame of the movieclip and wanted to do my code in the actions layers in my scene but this stubborn character will not stop and I dont know what to do.....
