ActionScript 3.0 :: Ticker Tape (horizontal Scrolling Text That Reloads And Loops In A Masked Window Once Finished Playing)?
Apr 4, 2009
I'm trying to create a 'tickertape' (horizontal scrolling text that reloads and loops in a masked window once finished playing). At the moment for visual purposes I have generated the following. This is linking to a movieclip at the moment but doesn't loop once finished... it just keeps incrementally scrolling until it probaby ends up in infinity somewhere...

I've been trying to figure this out myself for 2 weeks and just can't get it. I have done this the non-actionscript way by making each movieclip move across stage with motion tweening, but I know it would be much more efficient and easier to modify if it was all actionscript.(To see example, look at bottom of my company's Web pagehave cobbled some code and think I know how to create the MCs and animate them across the screen: (note eventually this will include 50 logos, but to figure this out I'm starting with just three--logo1, logo2, logo3)
this.createEmptyMovieClip("container",1);
container._x = 550;
container._y = 150;

I am going to attempt to make a Banner Ticker-Tape style .swf for my bands website. It will host News and Gig information, BUT I want the other band members to be able to update the information. At the moment we use myspace for our gig listing for example and rather than changing the info multiple times I was wondering wether there was a simple way to extract the gig listing from our bands myspace for use in Flash?

My text animation scrolls from left to right, which is OK. I want to keep it simple but change it up little. How do I get the text to go right to left?
AS3 Example
mask = customMask;
var my_str:String = " Ad hoc ad loc and quid pro quo ";
function addUm():void {
my_str = my_str.charAt(my_str.length - 1) + my_str.slice(0, my_str.length - 1);

below is a link to a super simple movie that I have of text scrolling/moving horizontally across the screen.The only issue I have is at the quality of the scroll/movement. it is inconsistently jerky, sometimes when it first starts getting on the screen and leaving the screen sometime all the time and sometimes when it leaves the screen.I have had this issue with other movies and scrolling things across the screen horizontally I had to increase the frame rate to 30 fps and extend the time line but it never really got to be a smooth scroll.

I'm currently learning Flash (CS4, AS3) and am creating a game. I have currently 1 flv file with 4 scenes, I then move from left to right and then to scene 2 and go from left to right. This is the game where items pop up that need to be clicked on and you get points.
Is there any way I can combine these onto 1 scene? Flash only allows you to have a maximum of 2880px wide.The reason for this is the transition between the scenes is RUBBISH and that my AS is not working correctly in between scenes (it loses values).

I am action script handicapped so bare with me. I know very basic action script functions like go to frame stop, play ect So complicated flash code does not really work for me unless it is explain easy and clear step by step. I know the animation portion of flash which helps me get by. I need to know how to pause a scrolling text as simple as possible when I click mouse over it.
I created a button (which is really displayed as text so that I can link to a website url) (SEE IMAGE)
The text is animated from frame 1 off screen to frame 400 top off canvas off screen. I did this the animation way instead of the coding way. So it should scroll from bottom to top (which I animated with frames), link to a new site (which I figured out), and pause on mouse over and play on mouse off.

I am trying to make a AS3 version of a scrolling news ticker although Iseem to be having trouble. The code below doesn't seem to be working although its not throwing any errors. I think its not loading my xml nodes or something. All I am trying to do is it to eventually load an rss feed and scroll a selected set of nodes. For now I just tried to get it to display an xml formated file since rss is xml formated. Ultimately for this example I just want it to display the title attribute of every item.
Code:
news_txt.x = 1024.0;
var count:int;
var textnode:String;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;

looking to build a horizontal news ticker like you would see at the bottom of the screen on CNN etc except it will only display one item at a time. Just thinking and planning before I start.... If the news ticker is only going to be wide enough to display one news item at a time, will my flash load all of the xml news data as soon as it launches and hide all the content that is outside of the ticker width or would/should it only load/display each news item individually when it is that items turn to display in the ticker?

I'm working on a project where a SWF will play (as sort of a splash), followed by JS. After the video plays, the navigation and content will appear, and the video will fade out. I'm just wondering what would be the best way to accomplish this? Play the video first and then load everything via ajax behind the scenes? The goal is to be as seamless as possible and I am having a flash asset provided to me by the client.

If you click on a client a set of images come up that move according to the x/y position of the mouse hover. This is something I'm wanting to create for my graphic design portfolio for a website, having 2 simple images that when you hover over them; dependent on the direction you move the mouse reveals more images. I have no flash skills at all and I've scoured the internet to try and find one.

I am looking for code that would let me detect when an flv has finished playing and advance the playback head to the next frame. So to set this up I have my flv on frame 1 (instance name vid1) and I want it to automatically "gotoandstop" on frame 2 when "vid1" is finished playing.

I am using the loader class to load an external swf "cube_final.swf". note I am setting a movie_clip (set on stage) to alpha=0 as I want it to remain invisble until the loaded swf finishes playing. I will then set alpha = 100% .
But how to i detect that the swf has finished playing? I can detect whether its loaded (i'll place a preloader in the loading() function)
this.open_cube.alpha = 0

How do I do that? Writing the code in the timeline does not seem good to me in as3, nor am I sure how to do it. I saw a site with an answer but it uses the main timeline for coding. Is it okay if I use the timeline for codes like in as2 or is it considered a bad practice?

I have a client who wants a home page similar to the way this one operates: http:[url]... It contains 10 images that are on a steady horizontal scroll that repeats. The images seem to be at about 50% opacity and they increase to 100% upon rollover. The images don't need to link to different pages. The way this one works would be fine, just all leading to another gallery page that gives more info.how I can achieve this type of look thru Flash? I have done some browsing online but most tutorials I've found are more like viewers where the user has arrows to scroll forward and back. This one is different, just sort of operates on its own....like walking by and window shopping for my client's products.

I am new to actionscript development and can't figure out where to start. I am trying to create a picture gallery in Actionscript (Flex would also do, but no Flash). Basically, it should be a horizontal list of images with captions below the picture. It should be possible to scroll through the images on a touch enabled device -> no scrollbars
I have looked into ScrollViewport put don't know how to implement a basic version in pure Actionscript.! I have included a small sketch I have seen alot of solutions with a scrollbar. But I want something like on iOS where you scroll with your finger through the images.

I'm developing my portfolio and want to add a horizontal scrolling dynamic gallery (see files). In order to achieve this I combined Lee Brimelow's tutorial on a horizontal scrolling gallery with a tutorial onhow to load images dynamically into a gallery. So far so good... It all seems to work except for the fact that the gallery has to detect the number of images in the scroller and adjust it's width accordingly (which it doesn't do yet). Also it has to make sure it doesn't scroll out of the containing MC (you'll see what I mean when you open the files; it also doesn't do that just yet).

I've got this script, as it works now the text is loaded with XML.
It animates across screen, but not quite as i wish. If you download the script: www.playart.dk/scroller.rar -> you will see the text removes itself before another text from the XML is loaded in the flash...
The way i would like it to work where it all comes in at the same line, so you can see 2 captions(nodes, text) at a time in one line...
If you dont want to download the file, the script looks like this:
//_root.p = 0;
//-----------------------
//Hent XML
function loadXML(loaded) {
