Buttons Will Not Go To Previous Scenes
Mar 2, 2010
I am having a very unique problem: I am creating a simple flash website, and I have a series of buttons that link to a series of frames. There are 27 buttons, and each proceed to a separate labeled frame. Each of the frames is a short animation 13 frames long. The buttons are all versions of this:
[Code]....
Then, 13 frames into the animation I just have a stop(); command. My issue is that if you click on any button in the series, none of the buttons that go to frames before the current one work. If I click button 20 and go to the 20th animation in the set, buttons 1-19 don't work, but 21-27 still do.
What's more, from moving the actions around to see if they needed to be in the same key frame as the button, I found that if the actions are in a single key frame in any of the animations, the animation stops on the frame that the actions are in. I also found that each button will only work once.

I am doing a project for work and haven't used scenes in 3 years so I am a little rough around the edges.
What I am have is 3 buttons which should each go to 3 different scenes. The scene names are "home", "twoPortlands" and "portlands" and then each scene has a layer with the Frame Label of "home", "twoPortlands" and "portlands" I want the first button to go to and play "home" I want the second button to go to and play "twoPortlands" and then the third button to go to play "portlands"
I have the following code on the first frame of home (which is the main interface)

I am working in CS4 and am trying to use AS3.0 to make buttons that go to different scenes. I am not using "Scene 2" in my AS; instead, I am labeling frame 1 of Scene 2 and am using that frame label in my coding.
Unfortunately I cannot get it to work properly. I am about 8 hours into trying to fix it and cannot seem to get it resolved.
I have attached the .fla file for your reference. I have also pasted my AS coding below in case it is a simple thing (probably not!). The movie needs to stop at a certain frame so the buttons are available for the users.
stop();
btn2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showimage);
function showimage(event:MouseEvent):void {

Im making a flash program about pancakes (random I know). I have a "Mainmenu" scene and then a "Recipe" scene. I have a button on my mainmenu which takes me to the recipe page when I click it, the code behind the button is
"stop();btn_recipe.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(1, "Recipe"); }"
Then when I arrive at my recipe page I have a button which will take me back to my MainMenu, the code behind that button is:
"stop();btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouse5DownHandler);function mouse5DownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(1, "MainMenu"); }"
So I run my program and the first button works and takes me to recipe page but the button to get to the main menu does nothing, click it and no response or anything

I'm currently trying to teach myself how to use flash CS5 and actionscript 3 and apart from doing small amounts of programing here and there I'm a complete novice.
I have 36 photographs taken at 10-degree angles, making an object and i have each image in a different scene, with hidden buttons asigned to different parts of the object so that whenever you hover your mouse over them it provides some more information.
What I want to do is to be able to cycle through these images in the different scenes using the up and down buttons on the keyboard.

I have created several scenes that all have the same navigation bar consisting of l buttons which take the user to the various scenes. The code for the buttons (listeners and handlers)is on frame one in the first scene. It works fine as long I am in the first scene, once I have navigated to another scene (scene 2) the buttons do not respond. I thought that the AS3 code on the first scene is available to other scenes as well? Could you suggest examples of code that will power up the same buttons placed on different scenes? (I am using CS4 Pro)

- I have a Flash page with 3 buttons that are ALWAYS UP TOP.- I need each button to jump to a different scene.I got it to work on one but when I add the Actionscript for another button I get a 'duplicate function definition error'.Here is my Actionscript (movie and gallery are my button names):
movie.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(1, "Scene 5");

I'm trying to solve this for over a couple hours
Problem #1I have 4 Scenes, namely:
Index
Module 1
Module 2
Module 3
When I go to any modules from Index, the button inside the modules won't work.This is the code I used to go to Module 1:
ActionScript Code:
btn_gotoModule1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoModule1);
function gotoModule1(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop("mod1_tut", "1_1_tutorial");
}
When I click the btn_gotoModule1, this statement appears at the Output box.
"TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Prototype7_fla::MainTimeline/frame2()
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at Prototype7_fla::MainTimeline/gotoModule1()"
And this is the code to get back to index, but it doesn't work... Why?The name of the frame is "Index" and the name of the scene is also "Index"
ActionScript Code:
{
btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnMod1HomeTut);

I'm building a point&click application with hundreds of buttons, functions and so on
I've added to the main gamepanel two buttons, one opening a navigation map and the other opening a paper with a long text. There is nothing strange, no interactions with those addings (both loaded with attachMovie or loadMovie, doesn't matter).
Obviously, when the map or the text are opened, the buttons below continue to be clicckable and usable...It exist a way to stop all buttons in all scenes?

I am relatively new to Flash development. I have a scene that contains 3 buttons that are movie clips. I am trying to link each button to a seperate scene but no matter what script i use the buttons do not click through to the new scene.
Each scene consists of 20 frames that need to play when each button is clicked on, so rather than using gotoandstop i am trying to use gotoandplay to a specific frame within each of these scenes.

I have a project that requires building the project using Scenes to chunk up different sections of an Elearning course.
I have created 20 Scenes.
Each Scene uses the same interface design.
On the Interface there are 6 specific buttons that will allow users to visit 6 instructional areas.
All six buttons will be avialable in all 20 Scenes.
My question is: is it possible to replicate the six buttons across all 20 scenes without having to provide unique instance names for each button in all 20 scenes so that the code to go to a scene will work in each Scene?
Or do I just have to code all 180 buttons individually as I go?
What I mean is for example.
The Lesson 1 button is replicated 20 times. the lesson one button has actionscript to go to the Lesson 1 Scene.
If I replicate the button to another Scene, I have to give it a different instance name, and update the code for that button each time and for all buttons.

i have buttons inside of my movieclip that link to the different scenes. on the buttons i have the code
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("bio");
}
"bio" is the frame name of the first frame in the second scene. it works correctly when i click on it the first time. but if i click on that button again in the second scene, it goes to the third scene. and if i click on it again, it goes again to the second scene. also, when i click the button the second time and it goes to what would be a scene ahead of where it is supposed to be, when i click on the button that should bring it to the scene it is currently on, it goes to the next scene when it is supposed to be on the same scene.

I am working on a project, an online document, that is going to require buttons for next page and previous page. I have laid out the document in InDesign and have created the buttons in Flash. My only problem is I don't know how to add that interactivity. I'm guessing it is just a couple lines of ActionSctipt but I am not sure.

I'm testing buttons and making them navigate to different scenes for one of my teachers who wants to start building websites in one of his classes.
But anyways,
My problem is this; "1021: Duplicate function definition.
Is it because I used the same code (but different instance names) to navigate from scene to scene?

im making a quick flash cd rom for my digital music label and i wanted to have buttons (leading to the different content scenes) that were moving around constantly (kinda flying around the screen) thing is im not sure what im doing wrong ive tried using an animated movieclip as a button but the button functions dont seem to work...the reason ive done this is because ive used a stop action on scene one frame 1 (so the buttons display properly) but i want the buttons to move around constantly the only option i know would work would be to create tweens moving the buttons around on screen one but it would eventually stop unless i can somehow loop back to frame one.

i want to load in the images in projects and then have next/previous buttons for each project to look through the different images for the project. similar to how it is done in URL... (except that uses javascript, and that slides, mine can slide or fade in/out.)I have got one project on its own working. But i am not sure where is best to go to get the projects loading one after the other.[code]and i imagine my as3 code will include a for loop to grab each project and get the first image out of it for each one. and then next/previous buttons will cycle through each project.

i created a movie in that i placed 4 slides in a layer1 in frame 5,25,45,65,85.i had created a movieclip a rectangle in shape whish is static in a layer2 on rollover the movieclip rectangle i placed 2 buttons one is "previous" button and another is "forward" button.on running this i want the button operations like the following1. on clicking the "forward" button the the movie have to go to the slide 25.2. from there if we click the "forward" button it should go to 45and so on.like this 1. on clicking the "previous" button from the frame 45 it should go to the 25 frame of the movie and so on.
every thing is working but what the code i write in the button which is in the (rectangle shape)movie has taking the only one action. ie., when i write on(release){_root.gotoandplay("25")}it is globel to all position on the button.so only this action can only is taking place.so i want the action script to be global and as well as my above constrains should also satisfied.

I'm building an XML photo gallery and I'm trying to get next and previous buttons to work. Here is the code I am working with.
Code:
function loadTheThumbs(){
var thumbLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var thumbRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest (thumbPathList[c] );
[code]....
I have written the nextPhoto function based on the loadExtPic function above and that does indeed load the function. The problem is, when I want to advance to the next image, I can't because I can't find how the currently selected image is set. When you click on a thumbnail the
Code:
var thisThumbsLink:String = picturePathList[c];
is set to the correct image, but I can't seem to see in the code where the "c" is coming from. I tried adding a
Code:
var LoadedPicture:String = picturePathList[c+1];
right under the thisThumbsLink var to no sucess. If I can figure out how, when you click on a loaded thumbnail it knows which thumbnail is loaded, then I can take that and make a next and previous link var as well in the same fashion the thisThumbsLink works.

I've got a photo gallery that I'm in the process of fine tuning, and I have my next button working, but can't get the 'previous' button to work. The closest I've come to having it work makes the 'previous' button just go back to the beginning of the file. What I want the file to do is just cycle through the XML, so even if I hit the beginning (or end), it'll just cycle to the first (or last) image, and continue on as normal.
Here's the script I have for the buttons:
ActionScript Code:
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, nextButton);
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, prevButton);
var currentImage:Number = 0;
[Code]....
