I am looking to create an effect this this: [URL] Or even were the lines come in as a group or lines do a moment and move off the stage again. Been trying to mask it but the problem is that the line vectors have no inside too them, just a pure line.

I am attempting to use multiple AS3 timers to run a short animation in flash but I'm having a problem with some of the instances running slowly or not being removed when they are supposed to. I found a way to make things work the way I want but in being new to AS3 I believe my runtime issues are due to jumbled code.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var playerFadeTween:Tween=new Tween(thewebs, "alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 1, 2, true);
var playerXTween:Tween=new Tween(thewebs, "x", Strong.easeOut, 292, 10, 2, true);

I have created a movie clip consisting of about 27 dots named 'timer', I double clicked on 'timer' and animated it (making one dot disspaer every 15 seconds). My problem is that at the end of this animation I want it to go back and play a frame on the outside scene.
i.e. from the 'timer' editing scene (the one you get to when you double click) I want it to gotoAndPlay (103, "Game") - The scene the movie cliip is in.
I keep getting an error saying that it cannot locate Scene Game.
I have an old Macromedia program - Authorware, that doe not like the SWF file output from the new CS Flash. I am able to go back to the old Flash version to get output that works - only 4-5 versions back - MX2004 or maybe CS.
I need to create an equivalent using timeline controls?
I was thinking of using a onEnterFrame. Have it loop till frame cycles hit the time I need i.e. 24 fps x 2sec = 48 frame cycles. then I would advance the main play head.
I have to stream a webcam video, so I use ustream to do that, which generate a flash embed code for me, and I have a button to turn off/on the light, but when I press the button it refresh the whole page and so the flash component.
There's some way to not refresh the page and still send to command ?
Well for now it's this way:
<h:form id="form_supervisory">
<h:panelGrid>
<h:column>

I have a map, which dots for locations, and a list on the right of place names. I want to rollover, say, Paris and the dot over central/northern France glows (expands, flashes, something... I know that would be in the movie over France).
So my question is, if the buttons on the right are the parts that mouseover (and will change colour, like good web links should) how do I get the dots on the map to change when the name is rolled over?
I am making a visual timer using a preloader technique where you create a 100 frame animation and some simple math calculations and gotoAndPlay. I've got it working, but once it starts up, it wont play the frames. Just sits there for a second before the timer hits the first tick, then it goes on fine.
Code:
Select allvar seconds_timer:Timer = new Timer(1000); //One Second Delay.
seconds_timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, notifier);
function notifier(event:TimerEvent):void {
var seconds:Number = (seconds_timer.currentCount);
var percent:Number = Math.floor((seconds*100)/speed);
[Code] .....
The speed var is a number that the user sets in the XML config file... I am using this for a slideshow on a client's website. I have a suspicion that the issue is with how I reset the timer and start it again. Is there a better way restart the timer?
I am making a website for myself and I want to make something like:That the carlights are blinking with the rhythm of the music from my flashmusicplayer. [URL]
View 1 RepliesI have a function that is called from a timer event. Every time the event is called I need to create a new Array with a unique name:
Code:
var dropNumber:int = dropHead.length - 1;
var ["dropTail" + dropNumber???]:Array = new Array();
I am not sure how to dynamically change the name of an array with as3. Also, just a bonus question, is it more efficient to have a single array broken into partitioned indexes or have several arrays of data?
How I can make the particle properties refresh every time it loops. In other words, the rotations will be random every time I test the movie, but every time it loops, they remain in their same random positions it chose at the beginning. [code]...
View 3 RepliesI had an issue with my index.html testing on IE and the preloader just stalls on "loading 0%". he told me that locally the progress event doesn't have time to load and to try uploading it to your server and see if it works. It worked just fine. Rah Rah Kglad.
So today I'm fine tuning the swf/ fla to clean it up. Reduced some picture sizes and deleted unused files and reduced the swf from 4000 KB to 350 KB Rah Rah Gene. replaced the swf in Dreamweaver and re-uploaded with Filezilla. Rah ah Filezilla.
Everything working great and my preload went from 23 seconds to less than 3. So I'm real happy except for one small issue. Firefox and IE both do this. If I hit the refresh button, it stalls on "loading 0%" once again just like it did locally.
If I hit the refresh several times it WILL refresh randomly....2 times refresh......10 times refresh etc.

What is correct way of creating a police car with flashing blue lights drive along in a scene?My plan was to create a new file, add car and png of just the lights to the library.layer 1 rename as car and dragdrop car graphic to stage, add keyframe at fr48 for 24fps scene, 2secs duration insert a layer call it lights and drag drop to stage, make duration 24frames, lights flash at 1 sec intervals when movie played.Should I select both layers and go modify>convert to symbol>movieclip then copy paste that from library to the library of the scene with the road ?(it doesnt flash !)How is this done ?
I also presume the fps of the movie clip if taken to another file should be the same as that file, one cannot have movie clips of different fps in one file, am I right ?
I am trying to make a light comparison chart where the lights can be turned on inividually by the user and one can be compared to another depending on which of the 6 lights you want to view.So far i have managed to make this work with 5 lights over 33 layers and diffferent buttons and different handlers for each of the buttons on each layer but as soon as the 4 and 5 light come into play everything slows down struggles and sometimes gives up.Is there a simple way of doing this which i am unaware of.I am currently using the gotoandstop comand to go to a specific frame based on the button press.

I'm trying to make a countdown timer, but I haven't really learnt all about actionscript. (not yet anyway), but I need a timer that can count down the hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds from a given time to an other.
I need the start timer to say:
01:31:53:70 (hour:minutes:seconds:milliseconds) and then it should count down so the timer stops at:
01:30:00:00

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to make a countdown timer with milliseconds.

Now I'm trying to add more items, such as music and a changeable background, to the countdown page and end up with errors.
Is there somehow I can add new frames to the background layer without the song playing over each other when I preview it? Also how can I make a button appear after it has hit 0 so I can click on it and lets me leave the countdown page?
gotta clock that goes from 60seconds-0secondsthats the code it works finebut i cant find out how to make it go to the next scene when it hits zero i tried code 2 but it doesnt work

How do you create a countdown timer on an animated game, so that when the time gets to 0 and depending on your score it ttakes you to a losing page or a winning page.[code]...
The other two frames are called gameWin and gameLose, so depending on the score within the 60 second countdown, how would i make it go to there frames and how would i make the time show up on the page.
I'm using the dynamic text scroller from [URL] found at [URL] Here's a link to my zipped files too... [URL]
1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.
