ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Timer In Differents Parts Of A Movie?
Oct 21, 2010
I am trying to use a timer in differents parts of a movie, but I want each part to play a different amount of millisecounds, but even though I change the var millis, it still times for the same amount as the timer on the first timeline. DO I need to make a new timer, and how would I do it. Some else gave me the script for the timer I am using.
[Code]...
This is what I am using for the other frames because if Flash wont allow me to use the same script more than once. I use this for the second scene, but when I try to change it, there is no change it still follows the parameters f the timer in the first scene.

I'm using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 2, and I'm wondering if there's a way of scripting certain parts of a movie to play in reverse when a button is pressed, I need it start reversing at the most recent, previous, frame and stop reversing 30 frames later.

I found an old post from January that suggested saving the original image as an SWF via Illustrator. I tried it, but my clip is still registering clicks in transparent areas.
Here's a link. [URL]
All I'm trying to do is allow the drawing to be dragged around the screen, but I don't want it to be clickable in the transparent areas where the green background shows through.
how to eliminate the pale cast that the transparent areas are making? The background to the drawing shows totally transparent in Photoshop, but the boundaries of the movie are visible because the supposedly transparent areas of the movie are slightly masking the background.

I was wondering if anybody knew of any technique where i can zoom in and zoom out to certain parts of a movie clip? Im not talking about a map or image zoom component. What im trying to do is a website where you see the "big picture" and depending on which section you want to go to, the movie zooms in to part of the "big picture" and content will load.

Suppose a MovieClip in as3 call myClip is 100 frames long and has labels at the following frames:0-start; 25-early; 50-mid; 75-late; 100-endCan someone explain (either using regular AS3 or with Greensock's TweenMax or TimelineMax) how to make my myClip play frames 0 to 25 then back to 0 again, and frames 100 to 75 and back to 100, Ideally would be able to loop over those ranges during a mouse ROLL_OVER event.

I have been getting errors when i try and make a call or get data from something on the main stage (like a volume slider) from an external class.
I have flash gallery with an mp3 component. The MP3 component features a volume slider movie clip that i manually put on the stage.
When i try and reference this from a file that is not the main as3 file it comes back as not being defined unless i set a small timer to kind of put my external class to sleep, then reference the slider.
Is there a way to fire off an event when all the components on the main stage are fully loaded?

I am trying to make some buttons that play different parts of multiple movie clips- and also link to a url. I also want to be able to click on a movie clip and make it play starting from a certain point (this is what I have been working on) I have this code
stop();
_root.frogdance.stop();
froggy.onRelease = function() {
_root.frogdance.play(4);
}
it is on an actions layer of my main timline- I am not sure if I put it in the wrong place or what- but it doesn't do ANYTHING when I click on it when testing the movie. I gave the frogdance movie clip the instance name 'froggy' in the properties panel. The rest of what I am working with will be buttons that do things- but I also want this movie clip thing to work...

I have created a movie clip consisting of about 27 dots named 'timer', I double clicked on 'timer' and animated it (making one dot disspaer every 15 seconds). My problem is that at the end of this animation I want it to go back and play a frame on the outside scene.
i.e. from the 'timer' editing scene (the one you get to when you double click) I want it to gotoAndPlay (103, "Game") - The scene the movie cliip is in.
I keep getting an error saying that it cannot locate Scene Game.

I have been working on a flash game for the past couple days and it is my first major game so there have been alot of issuesI think I finally have everything figured out with a few exceptions , they are.1. The movie clip that serves as my pop up window is popping up behind all my moving icons.I need it over top of them obviously.2. I need to figure out a simple way to pause time while the pop up is up and resume time when it disappears.3. I need to add about 5 seconds to the game clock when the user shoots a question mark so that it appears as though the clock was stoppedonClipEvent (enterFrame) {if (_root.time == 30) {_root.speedz = 9;_root.intervaln = 30;}if (_root.time == 10) {_root.intervalz = 10;}if (_root.time ==0) {_root.gotoAndStop(3); }}

I am going to be making a flash intro that involves using the flash transitions to transition between pictures and video content. I'm not looking to use this whole code from the template, I just want to implement the transitions with the timer instead of a keypress event. One like as follows:
stop();
var timer1:Timer = new Timer(200);
timer1.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, blah1);[code].....

I am adding a Timer object when my flv playback enters a Pause state and removing that Timer Object when playback starts again. I noticed that if I pause the movie and then drag the slider on the timeline the movie enters the Pause State again which adds another Timer Object....
How do I check to see if the Timer has already been added and if so remove it and add a new one.
See code below:
my_player.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PAUSED_STATE_ENTERED, pausePlay);
my_player.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED, startPlay);
function pausePlay(e:VideoEvent):void {

How would I go about using a timer to initiate multiple movie clips at once, and then loop them if they are all different lengths so that they restart in sync once more?
For example, say at t=0, 3 movie clips are started. Movie clip 1 is 3 seconds long. Movie clip 2 is 6 seconds long. Movie clip 3 is 10 seconds long. Movie clip 1 would end before movie clip 2 and 3, but I don't want it to restart until the others are both finished.
Furthermore, is it possible to set a countdown so that the the movie clips are initiated not after a duration, but after a specific time? For example, instead of having a timer countdown from 10 seconds and then playing, it instead countdowns until say 12:00 PM and then plays the movie clip.

I am working on a very simple game in Flash. I want to make all the animations framerate agnostic, so that I can change the framerate without affecting the flow and speed of the game.I read somewhere that if you want to do that, you simply create a Timer object and attach an event listener to this timer.
What if I have many objects that have to listen to the same timer? See the code to understand what I am trying to do. At this stage nothing breaks, but the event does not fire.Here is the Main class, the one that runs on swf execution:
public class Main extends MovieClip {
private static var _stage:Stage;
private static var _timer:Timer;

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.

I have a ActionScript 3.0 project and I have a timer that is running on 1000 millisecond intervals. I would like to delay this timer for 1500 milliseconds perform an action and start the timer again after the delay. I thought I could do this easily, but I'm having trouble, would it be better to stop the timer and perform the action and then listen for the action to be completed to start the timer again?
