CS3 Flash Animation Sequence Then Into Menu?
Dec 9, 2009
I typically try and stay away from adding a flash animation that has 3 static text links to a Dreamweaver html file but my client requested it. Basically, I have this flash animation as an swf file and need to have 3 links inside the swf file open to a page below.Please see the way my site is structured below. I am not sure if I need to edit the links more in flash with more action script code or if there is an easy way to integrate it. I was thinking of basically having the animation play and then load to a second scene with a png and links inside of it but I would prefer to learn how to do this in code or within the flash file.
Also, when I try and use a static text link it won't recognize what I have below as an actual link. Does anyone know what the proper format to write a link in flash is so it will pull a div box to load below? I guess the formatting in link (see the chain icon text) is an unrecognized protocol and I am used to the Dreamweaver formatting of links.

Very often I see on the web many flash websites very amazing for their animation in flash. For example, in monster template you can see the paper's animation like that: http:[url].... Watch the BEST DESIGN STUDIO animation... These animations aren't made with flash, but with a software from which to export a swf file that contains a sequence of shapes.What is it? It seems to work in 3d, but the objects moved are always planes and not 3d models.

I am trying to seamlessly loop specific layers containing .swf or .flv movies infinitely, independent of other layers in the timeline.I have attempted to use the gotoAndPlay("x"); method, but the target layer always freezes on the last frame for about .5 seconds before executing the gotoAndPlay command. The only situation in which it doesn't freeze is when frame "x" is the first frame of the project.No other actionscript is being used anywhere else in this project

how to swap to a new keyframe from a animated sequence. I'll try to explain clearer if I can. I have a button that when clicked on an animated sequence starts and the panel slides along which is fine but I can't seem to click on the back button to start a reversed sequence - I want it to slide back to the start page... so the user can click back and forth.
I've uploaded an example - squidgeye....co....uk if you click on the 'hello' button then click the arrow the sequence starts - I got the back button to have a slight colour change when the mouse goes over but that's it! I'm now stumped... and it's really annoying! I have the initial page on keyframe 1, then the animated slide on keyframe 2 - I was trying to put the reverse animated slide on keyframe 3.... but I'm now confused... I'm sure there was a better way but I'm a total newbie

How can I create animation in sequence? As soon as one motion ends, how can I get a second motion to begin? I would like to make item 1 move and then item 2 move. etc, while item 1 disappears or remains stationary.0

I need a little help to complete the hitTest for my animation sequence. Please see the orange section of my code:
Code:
stop();
var myLoader03:Loader=new Loader ();
temperature_small.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,dragTemperature);
function dragTemperature(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
[code]....
As you can see (hopefully), I need the movieclip to be released by stopDrag and it must also overlap with the CH1_btn button before the URLRequest can proceed. But what I'm getting now is the mouse loses control of the temperature_small movieclip when it contacts the CH1_btn (I keep moving the mouse around, but the movieclip remains stuck with the CH1_btn button). The trace didn't work and the URLRequest didn't proceed as well.

If I am making a flash animation sequence (no video) is it possible to make complex controls similar to a FLV skin. I was able to make a toggle button to pause and play timeline and sound but wanted more features; go back, start over and maybe a progress bar with timing show length or just a time counter of your swf and you current place in the timeline. I thought this would be easy but I'v been searching and can't find any answers, so is it possible? Client is looking to replicate or something like this link or better.

I have a flash animation I'm working on for a Web site and the java-based menu that's above it uses drop-down menus. Well, when the drop-down menus and the flash animation overlap, all you can see is the flash. The menu is behind it. This only happens on a PC-based browser. It is fine on a Mac. Any thoughts here? Any settings I'm missing here? The file is built in Flash CS4 using ActionScript 3.0. Here's the URL for the site (problem on home page when "Resources" menu drops down):

I have a couple flash animations I made for some websites, not too complicated mostly timeline animation and I am getting the same problem when I embed them into the html. The flash covers the jQuery drop down menu when you hover over the navigation. I did not create the navigation and it is behind a CMS.

I have a good flash mechanism where external flv's loads and plays automaticly. What I need is to integrate a button menu with this mechanism. Let me explain:
1. I have several flv videos. When I push button no: 1, first movie (video1.flv) loads and it jumps to second and third and etc. until all videos play. Then whole thing loops.
2. When I button no: 2 for example, second movie (video2.flv) starts to play and then third movie automaticly plays.
What I need is a corresponding button menu which shows visitors which video they are currently watching. In other words, when the visitor pushes 2nd button and watches 2nd video, I want 2nd button turn lighter. And when third video automaticly loads, I want 3rd button turn lighter (while 2nd button turn darker again)This will be a 100 video clip work, so I need this button menu so that visitors can keep track of which video they are currently wathing..

I have the animation performing ok in the file, but I am having trouble getting the movie clip to play on mouseover. could really use some advice on this. I've been through a number of tutorials, but cannot get this file to play nice.On mouseover, the menu should animate down (play the clip). This brings up another question, however How do I get the menu to receed (animate up) when the cursor leaves the button region?

I have a menu in which when you click on a button, a rectangle moves up or down to sit behind the button clicked on (to highlight it). I was wondering how I can make the rectangle move smoothly as in the tutorial where the ball follows the mouse. Here is the code I have used:- Actions layer- Frame 1: currenty = -50; yto = -50; Frame 2: if (currenty == yto) { } else if (currentyyto) { setProperty(bar, _y, bar._y-10); currenty = bar._y; } Frame 3: gotoAndPlay(2); And for each button- on (release) { yto = -50; _root.contents.loadMovie("demopage.swf"); } With 'yto' specifying the location to move to.. This all works fine, I just cannot work out how to get that smooth springy movment as the the 'Mouse Follow with Easing' tutorial.

First, I am an ultra newb who has read about 50 tutorials in the past two weeks or so.So, here is what I am trying to do. I have a header navigation box in my flash page. I want, when someone opens the page, for an animation to play. Then, I want it to stop and display my menu.
What I have done: I created two frames and put my animation in one inside the movie clip. The second frame has the menu. When I try to test it, The frames flicker and the animation doesnt play.I tried putting stop() at the end of both frames. This just made it...not do anything and just display the menu.
A friend suggested putting "root.gotoAndStop(2);" at the last frame of my animation, but then I get an error.

I created a dropdown menu by using a mask over animation. When you rollover the correct button a mask lowers down showing the dropdown buttons. then you can roll over each one showing a small tint animation. I wrote a script on that layer telling it to gotoAndPlay(21) when you click any one of the buttons. however whenever I click on one of the dropdown menu Items nothing happens. Is this because of the stop action I have at that frame?? and if so How do I get around that.

i have my Main.swf which loads external .swf inside the main window, depending on the menu chosen (so for example button one loads 1.swf, button 2 loads 2.swf, and so on). i am sure you know this type of flash page option.
i have animations running on the "children" .swf!
problem is:
when i press on the menu button (depending how long i wait) the animation on the child swf is already come to an end. if i press menu button 1 after 5 second of the main window open, it loads 1.swf already 10 seconds in. (loading time takes a few moments)..... if i press button 1 after 25 seconds, 1.swf is already stopped playing!

I have a sliding menu at the bottom of my screen. When you mouse over the menu it pops up and as it does it triggers an animation of a moving object. The moving object starts "off screen", comes sliding in and comes to a rest in the middle of the menu. The object has buttons on it. What I'd like to do is when a user clicks the button it loads content onto the main stage. Then either after clicking the button or mousing off the menu the object animation will continue on it's merry way out of view (off the menu).
Everything works great except I can't get the button to work! I'm thinking it's a path issue since I've done lots of buttons. So the button is now here:
_root.slidingNav.animationMC.object.button
And I've got the AS on the button:
on (release) {
_root.slidingNav.animation.gotoAndPlay(31);}
Is the button so buried that it's clicking options aren't available?

I am currently working on an XML navigation component and am having problems making it collapse and expand correctly with easing animation. I have no problems when it goes two levels, but it messes up on the tertiary navigation, and I REALLY NEED three levels in this thing. Here are links to my swf files to demonstrate it working without animation, and broken with the animation. Also linked is my source file for anyone to look at and debug. If anyone can fix this, well, they'll have a component for a dynamic generating menu with as many levels of subsections through xml.
Otherwise, would anyone know where I could find a collapsible xml menu with three levels sub navigation (like a section with a subsection that has another subsection)? The other ones are only two! Anyways, here are the files:

I've been working with AS3. The crux of the problem is that before I run a function I need to know that certain conditions have been met, for example loading my config.xml and putting it into a class variable. Where I run into trouble is that URLLoader is async so I can't put code after the load, the only thing I can do is put it in a lambda on the listener.
var conf:Object = new Object();
var ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, geoLoader, false, 0, true);
ldr.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
function geoLoader (e:Event):void {
[Code] .....
This worked great for short bits of code, but I've got a bunch of functions that are relying on huge amounts of preconditions (this pollutes the namespace if I use the first method) or functions that rely on one bit of the stack (which means that I can't use the second method even though it's slightly more obvious to me). So, my question is: How do flash professionals handle preconditions? I'm trying to find a solution that allows tons of preconditions as well as a solution that allows different orders of preconditions or just a few preconditions from a group.

I am using:
Win7 32bit
2GB RAM, Intel Core 2 Duo 2Ghz
Flash CS5
and I have this problem: i am currently trying to create a 720p movie consisting of 738 single JPG pictures; 6 frames/second. Each picture has 204 KB, all the pictures together add up to 226 MB.Yet still, Flash is crashing (due to memory overload?) once I have loaded like 100 pictures of my sequence... I loaded 90 pictures and tried exporting it as a small AVI-movie, but even that made Flash crash. I checked the Windows task manager, and I saw that even with only 90 pictures loaded, Flash already takes up 1,6 GB of my RAM.Is there a way making Flash save those pictures not on the memory, but on the disk, in a temporary folder or something? I wouldn't care if it takes way longer.
