Actionscript 3.0 :: How To Rewind A Movie Only Ten Frames
Jun 7, 2009
I have a movieclip that is basically a scroll through of several pages. Every ten frames is another page. I have a next button and a previous button. The next button plays the movie for ten seconds and I would like for the previous button to rewind the clip for ten seconds.This is what I have right now:
previous_r1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,prev iousr1);
function previousr1(event:MouseEvent):void {
movieclip1.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rewi nd);
i have 4 main sections of my site and i would like it if the user is deep into section 2 and wants to click a button to go to section 3, section 2 actually reverses every tween/action it has ( breaking down ) then goes to section 3. i would prefer this rather than an abrupt shutdown section 2 and section 3 starts.
I need to know how to make two buttons: Back and Forward for move forward 24 frames or backwards 24 frames. Also I need to make a Rewind button, how I do that?
heres my code basically i want it so if i stay rolloed over it keeps reversing, in stead of having to roll off and on, obviously only does one frame at a time.
So i'm trying to rewind a movie clip using AS3. I've tried using an ENTER_FRAME event and, in the function, using gotoAndStop(mymovie.currentFrame - 1) to decrement the frame until it reaches #1, however it seems to play very slowly and choppy, not like when I just use play();
I have a button on my timeline when you mouse hover over the button there is an effect ( bg changes blah blah), on mouse over a 3d cube (exported from swift) will rotate which is in the above move clip, the action script is poiting to it via the label see below:
I made a vertical list of thumbnails and converted them into a movie clip. There is a total of 20 thumbnails. I masked the movie clips so that it only shows 5 thumbnails at a time. I created keyframes at every point in the clip that 5 thumbnails are shown so that I can pause it.I was trying to use this code to scroll down from the first set of 5 to the second:
on (release) { design_thumbnails.gotoAndPlay (20) }
When I click the button nothing happens I'd also like to know how to rewind the movie so that when I press the up arrow it goes up to the previous set of 5.

I would like to use the rewind command inside a movie clip, with buttons or movie clips inside on the timeline with motion tween. this is reasonably straight forward.
But when i test the movie the buttons are not selectable as it is covered by the movieclip they are in.
How can i get these buttons to work within the movie clip. here is the code that goes on the first line of the actions layer. ( can be found in the kirupa tutorials).
[Code]...
This would look really good if i could make the buttons clickable/live and just linked to a url.
basically im making a quiz on my main timeline ive got my questions and answers and on the last frame i want it to say how many answers the user got right. ive made a movie clip on this last frame. in the movie clip ive got 11 frames with the posible totals so frame one would be 0/10 frame 2 would be 1/10 etc what i want to do is when the user clicks the correct answer on the other frames i want flash to make the frames within the movie clip to go 1 step forward.
I would like to create an image sliding effect using next and previous buttons. For example the sliding images on the homepage here: http:[url]....I know this is not in flash, but that's the effect I'm trying to create using flash.
I followed the help quoted below. However, when I press the Previous button to rewind the timeline, the movie clip does not stop. For example, if I am on image 3 in the slider and press the previous button...instead of going to image 2, it slides all the way back to image 1 without stopping.
Quote: ActionScript 2:Notice how, in the link to the example, all of the images/slides are the same size. Create a few of those before you begin.
1. Convert each image/slide to it's own Movie Clip, so that you can go always go back and adjust them if needed....as well as other useful reasons.
2. You only need 2 layers for now, Actions & Container. On frame1, add a stop action to the frame on your actions layer. Then, place all of your Movie Clips on the stage, on the Container layer. Line them up horizontally, edge-to-edge. Select them all and convert to a Movie Clip named "container".
3. On the Container layer, Insert A Keyframe > move the Container Movie Clip to the left so that the next slide is now in place on the stage > Right click in between the two Keyframes and choose "Create Motion Tween". You should have the animation from slide 1 to slide 2 now. Repeat this process for 2 -3, 3-4, 4-5 ......(don't worry about the reverse!)
4. We need to create buttons to go to the next and previous slide. Make a new layer called Buttons. Create 2 buttons, one for Next and one for Previous. These can be Movie Clips OR Buttons, just place them on the stage give one an instance name of "next_btn" & "prev_btn" (no quotes) for the other.
5. All that's left is to add some actions to a few frames on the Actions layer.
a) Add a stop action to every frame where the slide will be static (still), you should already have one on the first frame from step 2.
b) Now here's where the magic happens. If we test the movie now, the slides will just play and over. So add this code to the frame 1 on the Actions layer:
Code: stop();//already have this stop action, just add the below this.onEnterFrame = function(){[code]....
I am trying to rewind the time line inside a movie clip using the enclosed code - it works fine on Rollover but only for 2 frames on Rollout - what do I need to add to repeat the prevFrame function and go back to the beginning?
Problem is that my rewind and fast forward buttons do not work properly in the sense that they start to mess up when you fast forward or rewind past the current scene. It seems to just skip through the whole movie and totally mess up the animation.the code for the controls is on a single layer and reads as the following:
I have a movie clip that runs in its own timeline. I want to stop the movie clip from playing whenever the mouse is clicked (in this application I am actually using a touch screen and I want the movie clip to stop playing whenever the screen is touched). In addition, I want the movie to rewind back to frame one so that none of the movie clip images are left on the screen.
Is it possible in a way to regulate the frames per second of a movie that is displayed within a movie? As far as I can see one can define FPS at design time, but if a movie that is loaded by that movie, it automatically runs as fast or slow as the movie that actually calls it. Is there a way to slow a movie down or make it speed up, independently from the movie that calls it?
I have a movie with various movie clips on certain frames.What I want is the playhead to randomly jump to different frames I specify within the movie after each Movie clip has played. So at the end of each movie clip there would be a random script forcing the playhead to play another movie clip randomly. My movie has 100 frames but I only want the random sequence to occur on the following frames 10, 13, 25, 86, 75, 56.Or If I labelled the frames how would I label them?? Would they all have to have the same label, or each label different?
5 frames in 1 movie clip (PRINTMC)each frame named: page1, page2, page3....5 buttons on a frame each wanting to print its page.can't get my head around the print command code, so far I've got:
I finished my work in a long movie, 300 frames, with alot of internal movie clips and action scripts. Now, I need to add frames to the movie, but many action script codes will not work again after adding these frames, because they are pointing to defined frames, like the following code:gotoAndPlay(32);So, I want a method to add frames and keep these codes working! Are there any method to do that?
I am editing a .FLA file that has been given to me. I would like to have the movie jump frames (skip frames) to cut out a part of the movie so I do not have to edit the time line. What is the Action Script that I should use?
Right now on the frame I want it to jump from I have gotoAndPlay(8220); This does not seem to be doing the job.
I'm Making a catalog on Flash CS4 ActionScript 3.0and I don't know ho to move between movie clips using buttons and action script...In Scene 1 I have 2 framesIn frame 1 y have a movie clip (MC) and inside that movie clip I have 10 framesIn frame 10 of the MC, I want to put a button that will take me to frame 2 of my original timeline (NOT frame 2 of the MC)an some one tell me how's it done?or if it can't be done that way...then ...How do I go from frame 1 to frame 2 on my original timeline in Scene 1 after the movie clip in frame one is done?
I have some PNG files with alpha numbered 'image0001.png' up to 100 frames. I want to import this as an animation (movie?) into Flash CS4. The docs for Adobe Media Encoder suggest there should be an "export stills as movie" option under Settings but I can't find it. What would be the best way to bring in these .png files into Flash?
I'm trying to make a series of 16 short movies loop infinitely in a random order. I have a master movie clip called "random_mov" that has 17 frames. In frame one is an action:gotoAndStop(1 + Math.floor(Math.random() * 17));Frames 2 - 17 are my individual movies (movie1, movie2, movie3, etc...), one per frame. The code above does seem to work, but it only works once, looping a randomly selected frame forever. I need it to go back to frame one after each movie is complete so it can select another random frame
i have a movie that has captions on different frames and that works but when i load a movie that also has captions for areas it does not work.this is the caption code that is loaded in the main movie first frame.
/*tooltip metod for MovieClip object parameters definition: m= the message for tooltip. rgb= the background color for the tooltip.
[code]..
then i have a invisible movie clip named Laurel that when you mouse over it should show up.
I can target a movie from another movie just fine, but for some reason when I try to target a specific frame within a movie, from another movie that I'm already in, it will not work. All it does is replay the movie that I'm in. I've tried a million different combinations of code, searched the internet repeatedly, but found nothing that has worked; and I'm about to throw my computer out the window! I know this should be ridiculously simple but... I can't get it!
I'll try and explain what I'm trying to do in a simpler way: I have my Root > One >> Onetwo, Onethree. Onetwo and Onethree are in the movie One, and One is on the main level/root. I want a specific frame in Onethree to gotoAndStop on a frame in Onetwo. I know it sounds confusing but it's a terribly simple thing -- my code's just not working. I would copy and paste what I'm doing but I've done every single combination imaginable to me so I'd rather just have someone here tell me how they would accomplish this.
I've set up my flash movie to play and stop at certain frames in the movie. I'd like to add a pause button to pause the movie anywhere in the timeline or animation and then resume from spot it's paused on. This is for a presentation.
I make a button with some animated effects. On main work area I select object and press F8 to convert button with the name of (button1). The Up as it is which I make: w=70, h=50. Press F6 and same button on Over, here I again select object and press F8 and convert to Movie Clip. Here I insert 10 frames, one by one the button extend width and height. On 10th frame the button size 110x90 width and height. To animate and stop the button I put "stop" action on frame 10.I want that if the user's mouse over on button than the 10 frames play as I mentioned above but if the user don't want to click on (button1) than all of these 10 frames play reverse or add more frames and button will go to their original size and place. Is there any script bcuz I am new and don't know about action scripts.
I have a flash movie, which has two frames and constantly loops. On the first frame I have set my variable, and on the next frame I make it add 1 to that variable. Thing is, the variable is currently being set to "0" on frame one, added one, then set back "0" again as it goes back to the first frame. Is there a way, without adding extra frames to set a variable on Load but then to not set it again?
My actionscript is like this: Frame 1: count = 0 Frame 2: count +=1
I am just getting back into AS after about 4 years so bear with me. I have a movie that I show and remove as needed on my stage. The movie shows 2 frames of content that pauses between them so the view can see the data. I simply want to loop the frames when the movie is on stage. This is what I have written to control the movie.
