ActionScript 3.0 :: Use The FlashVars To Embed/place A Variable (a URL) In The Swf Before It Even Starts?
May 27, 2009I had to convert an AS2 clicktag script to AS3. It complies and works locally, but I was told I need to use the FlashVars to embed/place a variable (a URL) in the swf before it even starts.This is something I haven't experimented with (yet)I've seen examples and I kind of understand it, but I was hoping on some clarification
var flashVars=root.loaderInfo.parameters;
I understand the dot synatx (enjoy using it), and the root is probably the begining (where it will place the sting) Im a bit confussied on the loaderinfo and the parameters what are here functions in the command.
var clickTAG = flashVars["clickTAG"];
then using the flashVars Im unsure on the use of square brackets (instead of using curly braces)Best guess:This will take the string passed to it "a url" clickTAG and use the flashvars to embed/place it in the root/begining tagged as "clickTAG"?
ActionScript 2.0 :: LoadSound Starts Fine, Then A Second Starts Replaying Again?
Apr 8, 2006I've got a site that is using loadSound to play some mp3s and it works fine. however, the sound starts to stream, and then replays itself like a second later. my guess is that its playing faster than the load is going and when it gets to the point where it hasn't loaded enough, it starts to replay it, but i'm not sure that that is the exact problem. my code:

now, i tried making a playTrack function that i can call with setTimeout and i put that in the onLoad in place of track.start(), but that didn't work either (i was hoping to not start playing the track for 3 seconds to give it some time to buffer).
AS3 :: Preloader Starts At 50%?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Mc Invisible When The Swf Starts
Mar 22, 2011After a few years of using Flash I am creating my first project in AS3 and am running into some problems which are quite common involving targeting movieclips and controlling them. Basically I have a fla which has an MC on the timeline with an instance name of INFO_MC. Now i want this MC to be invisible when the swf starts and I have managed this by using the following code: Actionscript Code: INFO_MC.visible = false;
This is fine. However I get stuck when I try to make INFO_MC visible when I click a button in a loaded swf. How would I target INFO_MC from a button inside a loaded swf. Do I need to add an event to the button and then have a listener on the root timeline which would turn INFO_MC visible when it hears that the button has been clicked?

Flash :: Stop A Video Before It Starts?
Jun 12, 2011I'm comfortable with PHP and Javascript but this is the first time I'm using flash. I have Flash CS5.
I've managed to import a movie file, however, as soon as it's downloaded it starts playing. I've tried using the Action stop(); coding, which works file in the export preview in CS5, but on a website it runs straight away.
I know I can't use the command because that stops the timeline but by then the video is already playing. My solution would be to use and have the video in frame 2, then get javascript to jump to frame 2 when I was ready. However, I can't find a way to import a video file to a frame in CS5. Is there a better way?

View 5 RepliesIDE :: File Starts Playing At Last Frame Of Mc?
Nov 2, 2009Weird problem going on right now. And I seriously don't know what this is about.
On my main timeline (new document)
I create a text. I convert that text to an image. I drag that image on my main timeline at frame 1.
Then I set opacity to 0%. Create a keyframe at frame 50. Then I Tween it. And at frame 50, I set opactity back to 100%.
When I test the movie (ctrl enter) it just doesnt show the tween AT ALL. It goes straight to the last frame.
When I just go to frame 1, and press enter. It does work like it's supposed to.

View 2 RepliesActionScript 1/2 :: Swf Movie Starts Before Preloader Is Finished?
Dec 31, 2009I tried to implement a simple preloader for an existing swf movie. I've created a new flash document and added the Loader as well as a ProgressBar component. In the action script of the key frame 1, I implemented the following:
import mx.controls.ProgressBar;loader.contentPath = "myMovie.swf"; pBar.setStyle("themeColor", "0xF49417");pBar.setStyle("color","0x3D566F"); pBar.labelPlacement = "bottom"; pBar.label = "LOADING %3%%"pBar.scaleY = 150; pBar.conversion = 1024; pBar.source = loader; pBar.mode = "polled"; loader.load();
The problem is now that the movie starts playing (i.e. its sound) before the progress bar is completely finished. This usually happens around 80%. How can I avoid that the movie starts before the progress bar reaches 100%?
