ActionScript 3.0 :: Way To Control Timings?

May 9, 2009

I'm finally breaking down and learning AS3 over AS2. One question I have that my lessons aren't teaching me is how to control WHEN things happen in AS3.By example, how would you tell AS3 to put a mc from the library on the stage 15 seconds into the movie at alpha 0 and then 5 seconds later make that mc alpha

Flash :: Control Movie From JavaScript When Have No Control Over The Source?

Nov 4, 2009

Is it possible to control a Flash movie from JS when you have no control over the source? I have decompiled the movie to see its inner workings, but I know nothing about Flash, so I'm mostly in the dark. I found this resource, Interaction with JavaScript, but it's not working for me (probably because I don't know what message to send to the movie).

Flash :: Passing A "control" As Parameter Vs Passing Id Of The Control?

Jan 2, 2012

1) Passing a control itself as parameter into a function 2) Passing an id ( managed manually) of the control as a parameter into a function . Say for an array of controls I have ctrl_Array = [ my_btn, my_mc, my_dtg ] and corresponding id_Array[0,1,2] PS: If my question is difficult to understand, i just wanna know, if it is a good programming practice to pass control references among the classes as function parameters ?

Control Timeline And FLV Together?

Dec 3, 2009

Where can I find ready-made buttons that will control an FLV and a timeline together? I have a swf with an FLV and I animate images and phrases on a movieClip timeline timed to what they say in the flv. I set up cuepoints that trigger the animations, so when users scrub, pause, etc. the timeline eventually catches up with the FLV, but it would be a lot nicer if the pause, scrub, etc. would do the same to the timeline and there was no lag time.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Using One .swf To Control Another .swf?

May 23, 2010

I need to find a way to come up to a solution to this problem, I can't have a different solution - for difficult reasons, I'm stuck with this layout.I have one .swf file (call it Parent.swf) - and within this .swf file there are two other .swf files sitting next to each other. (cLeft.swf and cRight.swf)Now - again for reasons that are complicated to explain - the cLeft.swf plays through it's animations, and then stops at the end - but there are no buttons to replay it - and right-clicking is not an option. So, I was wondering if there was code I could use in cRight.swf to target and replay cLeft.swf - understanding that at runtime - both of these are embedded within a larger parent .swf - as I named Parent.sw

Professional :: Control Bar For .swf?

Jun 10, 2011

Somebody answered that a way to get a control bar to a .swf file was to use the "button handlers and the goto and stop methods".No reference as to what is meant by this or to where I can get the .html to do this.I've got the .swf file but no control bar!I understand that .swf can be visible by most browsers.So how do I get the scripting for addin these button handlers and the goto and stop method". Since I'm a newbie, please don't say, this is easy, just use this or that method.I need the scripting that will do it.I know how to put the .swf in the page with <object> and <embed src=""> but no control bar.

AS3 :: Control One Movieclip From Within Another?

Jun 21, 2009

I have 2 movieclips on the main timeline of my movie; One (mc) contains an animation, the other (bt2) contains a button (bt) with code. I want it so when the button (bt) is clicked, it causes the animation (mc) on the main timeline to play.

The button's code is contained inside bt2.

So far I've tried the following things...

Code:
bt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{bt2(root).mc.play();}

[Code].....

... along with several other things. Nothing is working at all, and I spent all last night looking for a solution with none in sight.

IDE :: FLA Source Control?

We've updated to Flash Professional CS5.5, but are noticing that when multiple users access the FLA over AFP network file share off our OSX Server, they are not restricted from opening the FLA at the same time.Could have sworn that's always just worked in past versions. Most apps just refuse users access to open files; Other apps like Office warn us of multiple user access to open read-only.

CS3 Can't Get Changed Var To Control Movieclip

Apr 1, 2009

I've a basic portfolio page with 5 links. The idea being that 4 stay small and the active page is a larger font. When one link is clicked, itself and whatever font is currently large both swoop down and then the large text is replaced by whatever section the user chose.

I haven't keyframed anything, it's all done with actionscript and here it is. I made one of the links show what the var is currently set to in a dynamic text box. That all seems right. But whenever the 'currentchoice' mc is asked the swoop down, it just disappears rather than animates out. Here's the actionscript.

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var currentchoice:Object = new Object();
currentchoice.selection = large_anne;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Control The Loaded Swf?

Dec 16, 2008

I want to load a swf into my main movie but it won't work as I want it to. Seperatly both files work fine and even the main movie works fine when loading the external swf. When loaded the external swf doesn't as it should and I get the error-message "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at port_ill_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()"...

Now, I know the problem have to be in the external swf since I've asked it to trace the result in the "for..var" method I use to create thumbs that works as buttons, but it only returns 0 when it should på at least 9.I don't know why it seems to be a problem as the main movie also are able load other external swf-files without any problems at all.theese files doesn't contain any actionscript triggering events in theese files, etc. Anyway, here is the code for the main movie:

var portUrl:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
var portLoader:Loader = new Loader();

Control When A Swf Is Loaded From Cache And When Is Not?

May 26, 2009

We have a web app. built in flash that allows customers to upload images and text, customize the container in which these will be shown (a swf file) and then embed the code into thier website. There is also a sharing options that allows their users to display this container, together with the content, on their websites. (For e.g you can see the container as the Youtube player and the content as the videos the user chooses to show). The swf container uses an XML file to know what to display.

Now, I am not a flash developer, but a person who takes care of the project.We are currently working on the app and the swf and we still find bugs. Every time we fix sth, I am told to erase my cache to see the changes. My concern is that the client/users might not see the newer version that we make available, but the old one. We can't tell them to erase the cache and we can't afford to renounce using the cache since the images are big.I was told that, sometimes, the browser does not see that the current version is a new one and loads it from the cache (actually, it never detected that there is a newer version and I always had to erase the cache). How can we tell the browser "now, load the swf from cache" or "now, don't load the swf from cache".

Playback Control For Swf Files?

Jul 2, 2009

I am new to adobe forums and flash platform. I am using flash cs3 / 8 for almost a year now (timeline with some basic actionscript - AS2). What I need for my projects is a playback skin for the produced swf's. I tried captivate, but when I import the skin actions don't work any more (i tried several tactics - synchronize ... ect). Is there any other way to add a player skin with start /stop buttons and active scrubber bar (slider bar). I can easily create custom start/ stop buttons that does the job but I can figure how to make a scrubber bar that will respond to my flash project user interaction (e-learning purposes).
