Copying And Pasting A Movie Clip From Another Flash Scene?
Nov 21, 2009
I have been trying to copy a movie clip from the library of one flash and paste it into the library of another. But when I do this, it always gives me, "One or more library items already exist in the document.
I have tried finding and renaming those items, renaming the existing movie clip, and even changing it into a graphic instead. Still it always replaces these certain movie clips in my main flash file.
I even tried the following: Creating a new movie clip in the new file. Then going into the movie clip of the other file I wish to copy over, and trying to copy its frames and put it into the new movie clip i created in the main file. Even then, it says I'm replacing library items!

I am having a problem which I I'm pretty sure (hope), there should be an easy answer to. I want to take frames out of a movie clip in a Flash file and paste them on the main timeline. The problem I am having is Flash is pasting them back on the stage in a different spot than where they were when I copied them. This is totally messing up my tweens! Is there a way I can get Flash to paste them in the exact position as they were in when copied?

whenever I want to copy and paste or duplicate something it never just leaves the original alone. It creates an instance so i cant edit one independently from the other. How can i just simply easily copy and paste a symbol movie clip ect. and have it be completely independent from the original?

i am happy with it and now want to repeat it with all the other images in the slideshowhe problem is, when i copy the keyframes (with a tween) on the first image that animated and try and paste them onto the 2nd image in my series, it actualy charges the image as well ! So that the second image becomes the firts image on the keyframes.Is there a way just to copy the opacity and motion animation ONLY ? My guess is there must be because to animate each picture by hand with a custom ease in & out curve would take forvever

I am very frequently having Flash CS5.5 freeze up whenever I try to copy and paste Library content between two different FLAs. The object I'm copying is usually a Movie Clip with some child Movie Clips.The larger or more complex the FLA you're pasting into, the worse the problem seems to be.I''ve experienced this on two different systems, Both Macs running 10.6.7.The problem is bad enough that it renders 5.5 unusable.

For example you have a flash with many navigation buttons. Each button will show different page.
Which is the better way: to use scenes or only using movie clips?

I've got a scrolldown menu and want a button w/in that MC to point back to a frame in Scene 1 on the main timeline. How would I do that? I tried the following code but it doesn't work. The frame I'm trying to get to is "facelift" (the site is for a plastic surgeon).
function toFacelift(e:Event) {
gotoAndStop (1, "facelift");
}
faceliftBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, toFacelift);

ok we are talking about as2 here. here is the thing thats bugging me. I made an animation in a movie clip. It is in the first frame of my main(and only) scene which is called "main". At the end of the animation in my movie clip ive set up a frame with the following script:
gotoAndStop("main", 2);
but instead of going to the second frame on my main scene, it goes to the second frame in the movie clip and stops there.

I have in the Scene 1, on layer 2, Frame 2 a movie clip named "Festival_conteudo_mc".And inside of this i have a buton ( close_btn ) that I would like to close this movie clip and go to the Scene 1 - to the main menu.On Scene 1 I have my menu buttons ( Festival and Contacts ).
The problem is that i dont know how to make them communicate, I've tryed _root, and As3 tells me it doesnt exist and its replace by Stage...I too new in this stuff. What happens when i put
close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,menu)
function menu(Event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndStop("Scene 1", 1);
}
It give Script no error, but when i Export the movie a error 1067 is reported.

I have a movie clip that i want to use for a button, so that when it is clicked it will move from scene1 to scene2
is there a way to make it change when the movie clip is clicked or is it only possible on a button? i want to use a movie clip because my "button" animates when the mouse hovers over it.

This is what I thought would be pretty easy to do:
- I have 1 scene named: "ucScene"
- I have a Movie clip on frame 1 with instance name "ucMovie"
- Inside this movie clip is a button with instance named "ucButton"
When I click this button I want my "ucScene" to "gotoAndStop" on frame 10

I am working with an iMAC running 10.6.8.I have created a flash file with only the main scene, which has a List button and a Home button. The List button has 20 links as a scroll list, each link installs a movie clip from the library.The problem I am having is the List button works fine until I add the Home button, then the Home button works fine, but the List button only works on the frame that the action is on. Each button is on it's own layer, and runs the whole length of the show, which is 220 frames. I have a stop label at each place a movie clip is to play.
If I remove the Home button from the main scene and put it into each movie clip, how do I tell the movie clip to go to the main scene frame 1?

I`m new here but as I`m working on my showcase for the university I experience a bit of a flash issues because of being noob What i can`t find out is what script to use so i can make a "back" button in a movie clip to load a designated frame (let`s say frame 5) from the main scene. I`ve tried this:
back_vs.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndPlay("sceneOne", 5);
}

I am using Flash MX and am a complete novice to Actionscript. I created a movie clip with a dynamic text box that works fine when I test the movieClip scene. I brought that onto the main movie time line and when I go to test the movie, the dynamic text no longer works. I have tried different actionsript options on the main time line and on the movie timeline but cannot figure out where I am going wrong. Could someone give me a very basic walkthrough as to what I need to do to get this to work?
