I want to use the same flash file on multiple pages on my website, but on some pages, I don't want the first two scenes to play-- they are introductions & a preloader, and I figure this would be smart to use the same file if the logo is already in the viewer's cache. I have my animation set to gotoAndplay a frame after the introduction, so I want to start it after the intro on other pages.

View 1 RepliesI have a image slideshow set up on a time line. Each image is on a different layer and I am looking for a code to make the flash animation start at a random key frame every time the page is loaded. Here is a link to the site I am working on:

I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";

My objective is to paste together several ( a lot, actually ) armature animations, each in a separate symbol.I have no idea how to do it, armature layers are a bit... strange. So i see only one solution: convert it to a regular layer.
View 1 Repliesso I have a looping animation that is several frames long. Inside the animation is a button, when pressed I want to go to another part of the timeline, where another animation is waiting. Simple, I got that working no problem. But... I need the first animation to go to the last frame in the loop before starting the next animation. The way I have it now makes an ugly cut, and the transition between animations isn't seamless.

I'm having a problem looping through my timeline, I want to use JSFL to hit each keyframe, perform an action (in this case breakapart, but thats a different question on a different thread) and then go to the next keyframe.
[Code]...
JSFL has proven to be the utter bane of my existence. I'm still relatively new to AS in general and AS3 in specific, and this is my first foray into the world of JSFL. I need to learn how to create this tool for work, and I am the only person here with any experience in javascript, so I'm pretty much on my own.
So I made a ridiculously long Flash animation, but now I have to break down to certain parts. It's all made in one scene.
My question is can I start the playhead on a frame other than frame 1. Say frame 595, I've tried gotoAndPlay(595);, but to no avail. I've searched for a good 2 hours on this too. Is something so simple not possible in Flash?
Trying to start an animation after a tween is done. Animation starts but way later, like 5 seconds after tween is finished.
Code:
var easeInPic:Tween = new Tween(bg, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 100, 1000, false );
easeInPic.stop();
function showPic(e:Event):void{
tweenPicEI();
}function tweenPicEI ():void{
easeInPic.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, showMenuBar);
easeInPic.start();
}function showMenuBar(e:TweenEvent):void{
menuBar.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
One slide of a slideshow I'm making I want the animation to end after it's completed without looping. I can do this by adding the stop(); command into the last frame of that slide, but if I return to that slide, it will remain in the end position instead of replaying.
View 4 RepliesI am looking for real simple scripting - I have a 15-25 frame flash tweened animation and all I would like to do is run thru the animation once then on mouse click go to frame one and start again. And of course I am under a time crunch and completely fogged with actionscript 3.0. I did some basic projects back in the director days and thought I could just pick up where I left off. If I remember right it was simple scripting like
gotoFrame
and
pause
etc...
I'm very new at Flash and while Ive picked up the basics of tweening and creating animations. I'm trying to create an image of a post it note that is revelaed via a mask when a user rolls over a seperate image. I have created the animation of the mask and it revelas the note fine. My question is how do I create an invisible button and code it in action script so when I roll over image 1 my mask tween begins playing to reveal the post it.
View 2 RepliesI created a simple animation that is 90 frames long. How can I start and stop it at specific keyframes so it takes 3 separate mouse clicks to complete. Example: a picture is on my website. When you click it, the first 30 frames play and then stop. A 2nd click makes the next 30 frames play and a 3rd click makes the last 30 frames play.
View 6 RepliesI have a most simple animation which I want to start on mouse click. I use CS5 and ActionScript 3.0. I have one layer where my animation is in, and an actions layer. When I add a stop(); at frame 1, the whole thing does not start. So far, so good. How do I tell Flash that it should then start the animation after clicking the mouse?I am a complete newbie but have tried since hours to overcome this problem.

View 14 RepliesI have a line on a client who wants someone to create an animation that "starts with a keystroke". Info is a bit fuzzy right now, but I'm pretty sure that what he means to say is that he wants there to be an initial frame or scene and then for it to proceed, he just hits "ENTER" or whatever.

View 1 RepliesI am working in a flash file, and I wish to embed a new swf. Normally, I would just import it using the video importer, but this swf has controls on it, and I have a feeling they might be lost if the swf is converted to a swf. So, I am now using the loader class to laod it in. Is it possible to make it totally independent to the rest of the fla? One example, I want the frame rate to be different in the loaded swf, to the original swf, is this possible?

I am making a frame by frame animation, where I draw a character, make a new frame and use the onion skin to slightly move my character. Is there a way to make a certain part faster than others? I made a character prepare to kick someone, but since i was doing it frame by frame it looks slow. So instead of taking out frames and making it look choppy, how do I make a certain part faster or increase its FPS? I tried making a new scene and changing its FPS, but that still changes the overall FPS.
