IDE :: Fading MovieClips Based On Cue Points Of Playing FLV
Oct 26, 2009
I'm trying to trigger some events (fading of nearby movieclips) based on cue points of a currently playing FLV. I'm using the FLVPlayback component (not Netstream) and have added cue points from inside flash (so they're "Actionscript" type). I actually found a nice article here: [URL] but it's AS2. To put it simply, let's say I have the following:
1) FLVPlayback component which has a parameter called "movie.flv" for the clip that it's supposed to play.
2) The instance of the component is called "movie_inst".
3) There are 2 cue points added through the component's parameters rollout, one called "point1", another called "point2".
What's the simplest code to tell flash "when you get to point1 I want you to do ___"?
I wanted to see if this could work...I have a loading screen for a game that I'm making, and I want the music to fade in. That's easy. Then, when the loader is done, I want the music to fade out. How do I do that?
The idea is there are two buttons(Sprites), one on the left & one on the right, when either button is moused over a the script should start setting the alpha of the relevant visible element. (i'm not worried that they both would be fading out as the mouse moves left to right at this point)
ActionScript Code: private function turnOnInterfaceHinting():void { this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, InterfaceHinting); }
I am working on an xml based slideshow. Random images loading (only ones and no repeated image) and fade in-out effect. That's working fine, but the problem is that when animation starts it does it on white screen and then fades in to the first image. How can I keep my slideshow working the same way but starting with the first image already on stage (without fade in)?

I want to load a set of cuepoints into my flv player, I have 5 flvs and I want a particular set of cues to load depending on which flv is currently playing,
I've got two SWF files where one control what happens in the other using LocalConnect and would like to use opacity changes to make a nice transition between two movieclips in the receiving file. I want the two movieclips to fade nicely so I can't animate it because that would make a brake just as i hit the button.
This is the code in the SWF that sends the information.
Code: btn01.onRelease = function() { var sending_lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection(); sending_lc.send("lc_name", "methodToExecute", {targetName:"mc01", action:"play01"}); };
I'm trying to fade in and out some movie clips using the Tween class, but am having problems. I have the following code which fades in my movie clips:
Code: import fl.transitions.Tween; import fl.transitions.easing.*; // Fade in and out var myTween1:Tween = new Tween(wds_mt, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 100, false); var myTween2:Tween = new Tween(wds_sf, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 150, false); var myTween3:Tween = new Tween(wds_hush, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 120, false); var myTween4:Tween = new Tween(wds_10, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 300, false); var myTween5:Tween = new Tween(wds_uf, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 210, false);
However, I need to fade them out and then loop the fade in-out animation forever.
Is there an actionscript for a point system? I want my points to be time based from this script stop(); count = 60; countdown = function(){count--; if (count ==0){clearInterval(doCountdown); gotoAndStop(11); clearInterval(doCountdown); }}doCountdown = setInterval(countdown, 1000);
I'm trying to draw a curve based on 24 data points. I want to draw a curved line based on the average of these 24 points. I can draw a line from point to point no problem, but would like a smooth curve. The white dashed line is what I'm trying to achieve:
I've just started on my first AS3 project and have already run into a problem. Can someone please tell me why the following code is not working correctly. What's NOT happening is that the mc that is passed to the scalethis function is NOT alpha'ing to 0 and I can't for the life of me understand why.
I have 36 instances of one movieclip (called panel1, panel2...panel36) that I want to fade and unfade depending on whether the mouse has rolled over that one instance, I tried this code, which works when there is only one instance, but not when multiple.
Code: _root.onEnterFrame = function () { for (i = 0; i < 36; i++) {
The following actionscript is some that I got from lostinbeta from an alpha fade question I had, that works fine but I now would like to have the movieclips get smaller at the same time as fading. So I put in some code that went like this
[AS] //set the transform mc._xscale = (i*10); mc._yscale = (i*10);
Below I have actionscript that plays movieclips in my library at random. How can I add to this to blend(fade) the movieclips into each other so that when the movieclip is done, it doesnt fade to white it simply fades/blends into the next movieclip/slide?
Code: var MCs = new Array("mc1", "mc2", "mc3", "mc4", "mc5"); var selectedMC = MCs[Math.floor(Math.random() * MCs.length)];
I'm still new to flash and I'm working on image transition. I have 3 movie clips on the main stage, frame 1. The 3 clips are called 'mc1', 'mc2' and 'mc3'. I've managed to load images in to the 3 movie clips by calling a php script (Select.php) to pass the image paths back to my flash movie in an array. This is all the actionscript I have on frame 1:
Code: myVars = new LoadVars() // Load the vars from the external Php file myVars.load("Select.php") myVars.onLoad = function(success) { // Split the variables [Code] .....
This seems to work ok. Now I want to fade the images in rather than have them just pop up. I think I'll need to put in some kind of pause to wait until the images are loaded before I try any fading but I don't know how to do that. What I need to do to fade my images in once they have loaded rather than just have them pop up?
Updated question: Is there a way to sort dynamic texts based on the variable (or simple value) they represent? Old dribble: I'm looking for some pointers for a problem with making a table. It may be that I have started off in the wrong direction - anyways, I'm stuck now. The .png displays my objects, and how they are connected/grouped. The highlighted (red) shows the variable containing the points.
The pink with the most points should be displayed higher than the rest, and 2nd most points should ofc be 2nd highest. I have tried taking the red variable out of the pink, but I could not think of a way of moving the red variable based on its own value. I'm going to edit the red variables (as the world cup goes on), and there is no need for cookies and such. And if there is a simpler way of doing the setup, let me know. I'm using SwishMax3 (SM2 up till a few days ago, so I'm more used to as2..)
I have a few questions about cue points that I can't answer with my Google skills. Firstly, I am looking into using navigation cue points for playback of an FLV in my Flash project. But the seektocuepoint functions don't seem to play to the cue point, they just skip ahead. I want to actually play through to the actual cue point in the video. Is there a way to do this?
Secondly, I noticed that you can't play FLVs in reverse.
And lastly, is there a way to implement easing when playing and stopping FLVs? I know this sounds odd, but it would sort of be like dropping the playback rate to half just before stopping. Is this possible?
I've got some flash 2.0 code that is supposed to add 100 points after a hitTest.
Code: function onEnterFrame(){ connectA(); var strandID:Number function connectA(){ for (var i = 0; i < 100; i++) { if (this.hitTest(_root["A_" + i])) { this.strandID = i; _root.total = _root.total + 100; }}
The problem is that it adds 100 points 70 times per second (the frame rate). It's supposed to add 100 points and stop. Here's a little more info: the hitTest makes two movie clips move across the screen together. Maybe because they're constantly hitting as they move, I don't know.
"Rotation Around A Common Center" Tutorial Posted at the following link [URL]I was wondering if there was a way to load different movieClips at Different Points in the rotation, instead of having the same movieClip for all; and if so how?
I'm trying to play 2 external flash movies. its already running ok but i need the scene to be somewhat to gradually become transparent so that the timebased scene2 will comeout to of the screen.
Here is the script of it:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("scene2.swf"); myLoader.load(url); addChild(myLoader);
I have created a document 600x300 filled with buttons for a rollover effect. I want to be able to play sounds dependant on the x and y position of the mouse without having to use objects that interfere with the buttons.
I would like to load a different image inside a flash movie depending upon what .html filename my wesite is displaying. So, for example if im on index.html I would like an index image to load in a movieclip and when I'm on a (anything).html i want (anything).jpg to load. I know I can do this with loadmovie and however is there a way to detect what .html page the user is on or is there a better way of going about this?

I can't work out why - but when I try to fade out some text (by calling fadeoutSecondText), the text fades out, and then immediately fades back in. Fading in and out struggle against each other, resulting in rapidly flashing text!
Next I'm going to make a game with ball physics on it so if anyone can tell me how to make ball physics with bouncing from angled objects.Also, I need the collision detection to be based on movieclips because I need to be able to modify the levels in the game.
I have multiple nested movieclip in its own different movieclip, and i would like to arrange them accordingly. My idea was to use the localToGlobal function. I can get the position of the MC on stage, but how do I use the function and place the MC based on stage?
cAPos = new Point(objectA.y); newcAPos = objectA.localToGlobal(cAPos); cBPos = new Point(objectB.y); newcBPos = objectB.localToGlobal(cBPos); objectB.y=objectA.y+objectA.height <-- based on stage
i have a simple xml/flash portfolio script (similar to the one in the xml/flash) tutorial and the problem is my pics are not uniform in size.this is probbaly an easy problem but how would i get flash to create a mc getting the size from either the xml (manually put it in the xml) or automatically get it from the jpeg??

I am trying to play a couple of movie clips one after the other one. In other words, I would like movie clip A to run and execute the AS attached, then I would like movie clip B to run and execute the AS attached to it
