Flash 10 :: Timeline Play Doesn't Jump Back To First Frame?
Oct 10, 2011
I have two embedded flv's in the timeline, one after the other. There are no errors in the video files. When the "playhead" in the exported swf comes to the end of the two combined videoclips, it jumps back to the first frame of the 2nd video clip for a fraction of a second, before playing from the start of the timeline as it is supposed to. I have explicitly done a "gotoandplay(1) in a separate action layer, at the last frame of the "movie", but that's not what happens.

When landing on a certain frame, I'm trying to make a MC jump randomly either forward or back ONE frame in the timeline. Can't get random(whatever); to cooperate.

so i have a main timeline and a nested one. the main timeline has a button named "how_btn" that plays the nested mc (named "how"). once i get into playing "how", i have a button named "menu" that i want to bring the user back to the main timeline (where the "how" button is). this is how i scripted:
how_btn.onRelease = function () {
gotoAndStop("how");
}
menu_btn.onRelease = function () {
gotoAndStop("nav");
}
the how button script works, however the menu button does not. is this b/c it's in a nested mc? i tried specifying the root, but that didn't do it either.

I built a button in one of the movie clips in my project,
when I release this button, it goes to the 41st frame of the main timeline and continue to play until the frame 70 which has got a stop; command. till here everything's just OK. But I want this button to do something more though I don't know whether it's possible or not.
I want this button to go and play the frame number 41 in the main timeline, and then after it stopped at the frame 70 , then jump to frame 73.

Today I found that flash had no option to jump to unassigned frames.
Say, I am working on frames numbered from 1 to 250. Now I need to jump to frame number 15000 and I found that I cannot jump to the frame number 15000 directly. I have to click in the Timelline and move the scroller right to its full extent, again click in the last frame visible in the time line and so on continue this until I reached the frame 15000.
Is there any easy way to jump to frame 15000 ??

I've got a button that I want to use to jump to a labeled frame within the timeline. When I click on the button I can't get my trace statement to work. The error message I get is:
Error 1061: call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with a static type flash.display:SimpleButton
BtnDone is the instance of the button on the stage, btn1867 is the frame label I want to jump to once the button is clicked.
Here's the code:
stop();
btnDone.addEventListner (MouseEvent.CLICK,clickSection);
function clickSection (evtObj:MouseEvent) {
//trace action - what's happening in output window
trace("The button 1867 was clicked!")
gotoAndStop("btn1867");
}

I have a movieclip with 3 frames. each frame has a button on it. Using actionscript I jump to a frame then add an event listener to that button.However, it doesn't work since the playhead for that movieclip doesn't actually get moved to a different frame until the frame redraws. So actionscript says the button doesn't exist.(other than not dynamically adding the buttons with code... which will be my next step...)

I trying to randomly jump to a frame in a sequnce of pictures on the timeline. Neither of the parts work below - the first "if/then" statements or the commented out switch code. Very frustrated with Flash CS5. Do I really need to learn AS3 to use CS5? I'm having other issues with code I've used in CS3 Flash not working in CS5. If I'm setting the publish settings to AS 2 and Flash Player 8 it should work, right? [code]...

I am brand new to scripting in Flash, and was hoping I could get some help on a question. I have an animation that is 300 frames long. The first 100 frames are an animated 'ad' (for lack of a better term), the second 100 frames are a different ad, and the third 100 frames are the last ad. This can be viewed straight from beginning to end (and is intended to loop if no action is taken), but I would also like to add some functionality to the animation, so that people can jump forward to the next ad, or back to the previous ad (hitting back from the first ad would take them to the third ad, and vice versa.)
[Code]...
This does not turn up any errors when I test the movie, but the functionality does not work. Am I anywhere near a working script, or am I attempting this in a completely wrong way?

how do you do the following
A movieclip is playing...
When it reaches frame 20, it goes back and plays at frame 5. Then it keeps doing this. To me this is harder than it looks

I'm doing a project using ActionScript 2 where I'm loading in text from an XML file to dynamic text boxes. I'm loading everything in on the first frame, but there are boxes that do not exist in the timeline until frame 5 or so. Is there anyway I can access those to set their text property from the first frame

I have a timeline that has some label frames at the very end of the timeline. During the timeline a user will hit a button on a frame and will jump to one of the label frames. On the label frame is another button that when clicked - returns the user to the previous frame. How do I make the movie return to frame 1 - without a button - but before it reaches the label frames? In other words, by simply reaching a certain frame in the movie, I want the timeline to go back to frame 1.

this.gotoAndPlay("repeat");
But it doesn't goto 90 and play it goes back to 1 and plays.

Everything is in the title!I am making an animation, followers know that I am making a turning envelope, and I need that it returns to its initial position when the mouse rollOut but from its actual position in the animation, so an inverse timeline playing would be perfect! But does it exist?

I am using Video (actionscript-controlled) component in my videoRecorder swf. What it does is it connects to webcam, record the video. This works fine. The problem comes when playing the flv back.After user stops the recording, I am using the same video component to play back the flv. But, it doesn't work. Checked the url, and its fine.When I use the same flv url in any flv player, the video gets played back. Am I missing something? Or Video (actionscript-controlled) can't handle playback videos?[code]

Okay so our current assignment in class is to create our own version of the jeremy levine design website. But I am currently stuck and have not gotten anywhere for the last 3 days that I have worked on it.
The problem is when I click on the box to go into the wood grain texture, I want to be able to click on the X box that appears in order to go back to frame 42 in the main timeline. (the x is currently only on the box with the 1 on it.)

I've got an intro for a movie,and a single button appears around frame 58,and I've tried giving it a function so it will skip to fram 478 and play the whole movie from there on:
PlayCompl_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay(478);
}
but it keeps saying "statement must appear within handler" and I've got the same problem when the movie reaches frame 477 I want it to go back to frame 58 and play from there so it would loop all until the button is clicked:
PlayCompl_btn.onEnterFrame = function() {
gotoAndPlay(58);
};

Normally, I want the movie to play the tween that spans from 25 to 35, then stop UNLESS a button has been clicked back on frame 24 - then I want the tween played from 25 to 35 then jump to 46.Problem is, in the button function code, if I have...gotoAndPlay(25); gotoAndPlay(46);the timeline jumps straight to 46 - it doesn't play 25-35. Why?I tried putting a timer in between the two gotoAndPlays, but itignored that too and jumped to 46.o how do I tell it - 'play from 25-35 and stop, unless but_a was pressed back on Frame 24 - then play 25-35, and then play 46' ?

I have a stop play button but it freezes play as opposed to what I require which is returning cursor to frame 1 to then await the next button click when an animation would play again.I currently have code for the button as :-
on (release) {stopMovies(this);function stopMovies(mov:MovieClip) {for (movs in mov) {if (typeof (mov[movs]) == "movieclip") {mov[movs].stop();stopMovies(mov[movs]);}}}}

I have tried everything but it just isn't working.On my main timeline I have a MC called "rainbow." Inside "rainbow" I have a MC called "greenbow."Inside "greenbow" I have a MC called "meetbtn2" I want it to play frame 134 on the main timeline when you click "meetbtn2."my code inside greenbow is as follows:
meetbtn2.onRelease = function () {
_root.gotoAndPlay(134);
};
however it doesn't work! is it because i am inside two MC's?I have also tried
_root.rainbow.greenbow.meetbtn2.onRelease = function () {
