I am currently creating a project in flash. Basically I have nearly a hundred frames. I want my next button to play scene 90 to 100 and then play 60-80 after the previous one has finished. I have already put action script in the top layer to make sure it will stop at 100 and stop at 80 but i cant get them to play after each other. I haven't a clue of what function to use only go to and play but then they would play at the same time right?
For some reason i'm having problems swapping scenes in my flash movie. At first i put the action in a "actions" named layer and a link to a button. So basicly when scene1 loads the frame 1 action is "stop ();". The viewer clicks on button1 which has a code of;
I'm new to this actionscript stuff and I'm having trouble making my swf file loop over and over. I have several movie clips in my scene and in the last movie clip, in the "actions" layer, in the last frame, I put "gotoAndPlay(1);" hoping that this would make the file loop over and over.
Instead, I get a error message: 1120: Access of undefined property social_media_mc. How I can make my swf loop over and over?
I am trying to create a video that can be streamed on a website. The video started with a screen grab of the video on frame one. This has the action on stop();. When this screengrab is clicked, gotoAndStop(2); is fired and the timeline moves to frame 2 and the video starts to stream. All is well... Except from when the video finishes...
When the video finishes I have tried using the code
on (complete) { gotoAndPlay(1); }
To go back to the origonal screen grab on frame one but it doesnt seem to budge.
My timer counts down from 60 to zero. I want my movie to go to the next frame at zero count. How would I make a condition to go from frame 1-2? I need to find the right operator and values, but I get lost in the strings.
What I am trying If (something is <> == true false); gotoAndPlay(2); stop(); // var timer:Timer = new Timer(100, 300); timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, countdown); [Code] ....
I'm making several experiments like this to understand conditionals. I need to build objects that function similar to preloaders.
I have a Flash Professional CS5 project with ActionScript 3. I have a movieclip object with several gotoAndPlay ActionScript commands inside of it. I also have other gotoAndPlay commands on the main stage, linked to interactive events.
When I run the project via Ctrl+Enter, it works perfectly, without any issues. However, once I compile it down to a .swf or an Air 3.0 file, it runs, but omits some or all of the gotoAndPlay commands, both the ones inside of and outside of the stage.
I have a video that starts after an introduction is played.it plays fine but my members are asking for a non autoplay video. So I'm trying to put a "start video" button or movieclip to start the video manually.
I have a building floor plan with multiple building levels. Each level occupies a space in the main timeline. And when they click on a particular room, the page is refreshed with that room's info thanks to a little bit of php.
When a room on a particular level is clicked, and the page refreshes, the flash (obviously) starts to play from frame 1 again which is the main level.
I would like to pass the frame # to gotoAndPlay() from outside flash when the user clicks on a room on the upper levels of the building so the proper level is shown.
I am working with some actionscript that are spread out amongst different frames, and having changing conditions, determines whether to end the sequence (gotoAndStop(1)) or continue (gotoAndPlay(5))
I understand this easy example could be done several ways on one frame easily, (while x<10, etc).. but my code is so long and complicated, that the way I wrote it, it was easier to have it sort of "loop" between frames. The problem with this is, I think the frame jumping is slowing the coding down. I tried functions, (like having all coding in frame 5 as a function, then calling that function with the "else" in frame 6), but that would only run the function once.. I need it to keep looping.
I downloaded a basic flash menu from iStock to use on a site I am making... but I am having an issue: Basically the component will let me drag instances of it onto the stage... , but when I try to edit any aspect of the component... it changes every one I have on the stage. All I want to do.. is to be able to script each instance to gotoandplay on a certain frame... the scripting is as follows:
I am using the below function in one of my application, but its not working. It says 1120: Access of undefined property btnTwo.
For button I have given the instance name as btnTwo btnTwo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn2); function btn2(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(24); }
here is what I am trying to achieve in as3 in as2:
Code: var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*3) if (randomNumber == 0){ gotoAndPlay(1);
[Code]....
on frame 1, 30 and 60 there is a different animation, with this code at the end of each animation it randomly chooses one of the optional frames to play from.
gotoAndPlay function not working, I am getting this runtime error "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."I understand its meaning, what is the reference that is null here , even keyframe 3 exists.
The gotoAndPlay option isn't kicking in here. The object "sam_MC" proceeds along the specified root. But when the if statement containing gotoAndPlay becomes true, sam_MC simply stops moving and no other action is taken. When sam_MC's x coordinate becomes less or greater than a specified amount, I want the flash movie to restart. My code is located on the first frame of a layer I have named "actions." Here it is.
How can I mention in the actionscript 3 that the movie clip on frame no. 10 should play after the webpage loads (or after 1 minute)? then stops? The code would be on Frame no. 1.
How can I get a movie clip to play when pressing the right arrow key? The movie clip is called helicopter and it has stop(); on its first frame (with an animation following).
Here is the loop that tells the arrow keys what to do when pressed:
public function loop(e:Event) : void { vy += gravity; y += vy;
hen you click on a button within my swf it loads an external swf into an MC that sits on top of the 1st swf, which continues to play underneath.Within swf2 I have lots of pages that you can navigate to, which works fine on its own, but not when I try to play it through swf1.When I click on any of the navigation buttons they don't work.I've tried making an MC within swf2, putting all the pages in there and on the navigation buttons doing:
I am trying to perform a simple jump on a button with this basic code,
on(release) { gotoAndPlay("ToMain"); }
This works most of the time. Other times it simply skips the jump and continues on. This jump is aimed to skip over an intro (so heavy image transitions with music and commentaries added). I am guessing the intense cpu processing is the cause of the skip. Is there a sure way of performing this jump?
On the same frame, I have two buttons - one with alpha transparency above an image, and one regular one. Both have the " on (release) { gotoAndPlay (2) ; }" code. The transparent one doesn't work, but the other one does.
im using as3 to make buttons, and basically when you click on something, all other tabs close, i can not get this to work....
invisible.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fn_tab3_1); // invisible is the invisible button, mouse move in this area triggering this event// function fn_tab3_1(event:MouseEvent){
I've got a movie clip and at the final frame of the clip, I have an action to make it go back but to a frame label and I've tried a number of different versions of the GotoAndPlay action and none work. They're all being ignored and I don't get it. Here's what I've tried:
I'm having problems with my animation getting cut of by my navigateToURL code. What is supposed to happen is,If you click on "buttonBtn" it triggers a animation. At the end of the animation it is supposed to stop and bring up a url. I've used gotoAndPlay ("frm") and navigateToUrl. Each time I test it in the browser the animation will begin, but the url comes up before the animation is finished. How do I allow the animation to play all the way through and then retrieve the url?
stop(); //SimpleButton ButtonBtn; function handleClick( pEvent:MouseEvent):void {
I have a preloader that loads an external .swf. Problem is, it doesn't show the .swf until it is 100% loaded. But, the external .swf starts to play before it reaches 100%. I placed a stop function in the external .swf so now, after it loads 100% it is still on the first frame. How do I get it to automatically goToAndPlay the second frame?
Also, when the external .swf reaches the end, it needs to loop back. I am guessing that I will have the same problem after it reaches the end, loops back to first frame and stops again.
I've got a simple button that when clicked needs to go to a particular frame and stop when it hits the stop(); however when I test it I get a type error #1009 Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at PostCard_fla::MainTimeline/frame25()
I need to be able to tell it what frames to go to manually so the user can jump around the time line using short animated transitions between pages (set up like a web page) in AC2.0 this was easy, but its different in AC3 and I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong.
This is my code:
stop(); btn_flip.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick); function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndPlay(28); };
On my first frame, I have: 6 buttons (p1 through p6). A holder mc_holder, which holds mc_pages, {a movie clip that shows 6 pages (each their own movie clip, page1 though page6) tweened across the screen, made to look as if the pages are being "flipped" through).
The following code: Code:stop(); var _holder = mc_holder.mc_pages; var picked;p1.goal = 1; p1.onRelease = goPage; p2.goal = 10; [Code] .....
The problem is, as soon as the movie loads, ALL these animations begin to play. I am looking for a solution so that the animations will not play until the page is viewed. I am thinking I can put a stop on the first frame of each page, and a frame label ("go") on the second frame. Can I add this (my knowledge is limited but say... gotoAndPlay (go")) to the code shown above? I have tried messing around with it but have not yet had any results.
