Flash 9 :: How To Play A Movieclip
Oct 1, 2008
I made an animation contianing several layer and it works wonderfully, and in the last frame on it's own layer, I put a stop action.Then I made a movie clip object, containing a secondary animation, and I wanted to simply have that movie clip play within the content area of the original animation I made. I would like it to start and loop over and over after the first animation has completely loaded and stopped?
Everything I'm finding online refers to making an button to activate the movie clip and make it play, but I have to believe there's a way to do it automatically as It's a header for a website, and it need it to just load the primary content which is a logo and an address that fades in then slides to the right side of the header.Then in the empty left part of the header I want this movie clip to go ahead and play on a loop.

MovieClip(mcName).play();
MovieClip(mcName).addEventListener(??????, myStopFunction);
Or how differently you can learn about the end of play?MovieClip is an external file and loaded into the swf as needed.

I have 10 buttons on my homepage and I want to play the same movieclip when you click on a button and after that move to a specific frame for each different button.
Someone know an easy to make this without having to create 10 differents movieclips just to change the action at the end of the movieclip?

Is it best to try to play a movieclip backwards or maybe use some other technique like reversing the frames and creating a new sequence and the play that one?
or is there an easy way to play the frames backwards?

I'm trying to play through a MovieClip frame by frame using setInterval. Overall I'm trying to imitate speeding up and slowing down of the MovieClip by changing the setInterval time. Basically, when a user moves the Slider the MovieClip needs to speed up or slow down based on the Slider value. EDIT: The code above works to a certain extent. As in the slider updates updateClip() and the MovieClip does actually play at one speed. But the MovieClip does not play at the speed variable value. If I remove the ClearInterval() the MovieClip just plays at one speed but then doubles when the Slider is changed. What I'm looking for is the MovieClip to play at the same rate as speed value.

I have a movieclip within the main clip called "playPause" which starts with the Pause button shown. When clicked the movie clip moves to show the play button and pauses the current parent movie with the AS "_parent.stop();" when the play button is then pressed the movie plays via "_parent.play();" and reverts back to showing the pause button.
Simple so far. What is getting me is if I add a movie clip within the parent (say some scrolling object) I cannot get the added clip to pause. For example say the "parent" movie clip the playPause moveclip is within is called "intro" and the moving object is called "introObject" which is embedded in a frame along with "playPause"
What I have setup for the playPause buttons is for pausing
_root.introObject.stop();
and playing
_root.introObject.play();

Is there an easy way to switch out a movieClip for another dynamically loaded movieClip?
I have and eventListener onCLICK that when selected it starts an FLVPlayback but I would also like to swap out with another movieClip Play Now / Now Playing button.
Just some background. I am looping and loading a play button jpg's into one movie clip and assigning an incremental number as a name to the play button movie clip. On Click that play button plays a movie but now I would also like to switch the play button graphic to a playing now graphic.
//ADD EVENT LISTENER TO ALL MY THUMBS_BUTTON
thumbs_button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playVideoThumb);
for (var i:Number = 0; i < my_total; i++) {

I have a movieclip within the "over" section of my button, which contains both an roll over and a roll out animation. My problem is that I cant seem to get flash to play the rollOut animation.
I placed the following code in the button itself
on (rollOut) { this.start_mc.gotoAndPlay("mouseOut");}
I tried setting up a function to find when the user rolls off the button but it didn't work either.

I've got tree movieclips called: greenpip(this is the dragable object, which is visable), greenpip_target(which is invisible, but becames visible when greenpip hits it, and grrenpip is becaming invisible) and then the third one: greenpip_flask (which is the animation I want to play when the greenpip hits the greenpip_target).
Everything works but I don't know how to make the greenpip_flask play, when grrenpip hits the greenpip_target. This scenario takes place three times with three sets of objects

Can a button play a movieclip if it lives within another movieclip? Let me explain: Buttons in a map key ran route animations on the map. Code for button (accessed by selecting button and F9) ..reads : on (release) { gotoAndPlay("BusRoute_375");}
[Code]...
All layers and consequently all route movieClips that relate to the map as well as the stop codes for the individual route animations now reside within that MovieClip which sits on a new layer above the map key layer. However, the key buttons no longer run the route animations. What should be done so that when clicked they still play the route MovieClips. Its like the button code cant see the layers it once refered to, now that they are in a movieclip.

I am trying to create an interactive graphic. Basically, it's three squares layered on top of each other, with a large square in back, a medium square centered in the middle of the large square, and a small square in front centered in the middle of the medium square.
When you roll over the medium square, say, it expands to almost the size of the large square and some text fades in, and the small square on top of it fades away. When you roll off of the medium square, it goes back to it's smaller size, and the small square fades back in.
Currently, I have the actionscript in the movieclip to make the medium square get larger and smaller (and the text fade in), but I need to somehow reference the instance of the small square movieclip to hide it when I roll over the medium movieclip.
My actionscript for the medium square activity, currently:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
[Code]....
how to have this rolling over action get rid of the small square and then bring it back on roll out.

I was asking button to go to a movie clip on the main timeline that had a stop frame at the beggining. Flash won't do this because it doesn't recognise anything past a stop frame and used _parent instead of _root
code on the button:
on (release) {
_global.destination_detail = "first"
_parent._parent.gotoAndStop("content_mc");
}
And in the stop frame that's at the beginning of the movieclip that contans my content:
content_mc.gotoAndStop(_global.destination_detail) ;
stop();
So I've created a variable: destination_detail

I can't see how this isn't working:[code]The button with this funtion is nested within a movieclip on the main timeline.'content_mc' is the instance name of a movie clip on the main timeline that contains frame label "1". I want to play frame label one by clicking on this button.

I play games on Pogo and have never had a problem with their Flash Games until released Daily Hot Shots. It doesn't load fully and I've done EVERYTHING I know to do to get it to play. No errors show up. I can play ALL the other flash games but this one. When I right click, the name of the site's owners do not show up....I have the settings showing though Not all of the game loads and that's the problem. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling....tried a different browser and have the same exact problem. THIS GAME WILL NOT PLAY.

I've created a simple movieclip (48 frames long). I want to play this movie on the stage. I created enough frames, but the movie doesn't play. I haven't used Flash for a real long time, so I'm probably missing something simple.

playBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onPlayClick);
function onPlayClick(event:MouseEvent):void

I know it's the 'mcBox.play();; part but can;t figure what it is?

I have 4 MC on Scene1 (main), and all on one frame, since movie clips have thier own timeline. But I want each MC to play after one another, after each MC is played, goes to the next one. So basically what's the actionscript? MC 1 has MC1 instance name, and within that MC, I have labels, with start and end (on different frames of course). But can actionscript read withing MC's timeline? If your confused let me know, 'cause I think I messed it up

I have a strange situation:in a fla file (an H264 player with pseudostreaming) i have a fla structure with only one frame. I use attachMovie to add movieclips to an empty movieclip. These movieclips stops at frame 1.In another file with identical structure all the movieclips add with attachMovie plays correctly.In the first file, if I add frames to the main timeline, the movieclips goes on, they play correctly.
