I am trying to get a FLA to work correctly. I have 4 movies that I want to play with a navigation swapping the movies to the front as clicked. When I use the navigation, the first few movies work great, but as I click through they start to get a little jumbled, and it breaks. I am using this script for the buttons to call on the movies:

If anyone can get these mc's to swapdepths when clicked!
View 2 Replies1. I want to make the big yellow circle in the middle to acctually look like it is in the middle of the green rotating spheres... So it is sort of the sun and the rest are the planets... This obviously has something to do with swapDepths, but I am not to good at AS and I can't figure out how to do it!
2. I wish to make the green spheres each a seperate button, so that when you click one of them it falls from the group and the camera follows it (the camera, when following its fall, should also center it)... Then the sphere will bounce on an invisible surface (invisible surface is notable by the shadow created below the ball), come to a rest in the center of the page and then the info shows up...
Is it possible to swap the depths of externally loaded movies? if so, what is the best way to do it?
View 1 RepliesFor 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 am new to actionscript. I have created a script that will play server side sound object and client side mp3 files alternately. Now, I would like to play the client side mp3 first then only play server side sound object alternately. However, I have no idea how can I do so. The following is the code that need to be swapped:

I'm a graphic designer, so my skills on AS are not that great. However I've managed so far with quite a few websites, until now. What I'm trying to do is the following: I have a main movie (which i'll call for now movie1.swf). I load a movie on Scene2, on level1 (which I'll call movie2.swf). So what I want to do, is to be able to whenever i click on a specific button (which I can place either on movie1.swf or movie2.swf, depending on recomendation), and gotoandplay to a specific frame label on movie2.swf, and gotoandplay a specific frame label on movie1.swf. Is this possible?
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a portfolio site with a handful of thumbnails. I want a short description of each thumbnail to appear when I rollover the thumbnail. I've got it set up to appear, but I want them to fade in. I can't seem to figure that out. In addition, I want an image to appear and move to the front when the thumbnail is clicked. I can get it to appear, but if it's not on top, then it will just show under the other images visible. I'm thinking that a simple command would solve all these issues, but I cannot seem to figure it out. I've included the action script for one thumbnail.
Ideally, I'd like for the clicked image to fade out and the next clicked image to fade in, but I think that that is beyond my Actionscript understanding for now.
On frame 2 of my main timeline, I have a movieclip called "intro". Within "intro" I have all of my intro animations. When these animations end, I want to jump to a page I've labeled "homepage." On the last frame (frame #125) of the "intro" movieclip, my as3 simply says:

What does the code look like if I want the user to click two specific buttons then go to a new frame. I've been trying different methods, but I am honestly not brilliant with conditional statements. This is what I've got so far...
about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickAbout);
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickMain);
if (function clickMain(event) && function clickAbout(event))

On a particular frame I have the action
PHP Code:
loadMovie("swfs/home_text.swf", 1);
I want to add an action on a navigation button to unload that movie from main movie. I tried unloadMovie();, but no luck.
this is so complicated i don't think i'll ever be able to do it a button is clicked to start the game which is all playing in the second frame of main timeline according to the maths for as3 but i need to be able to have the same button in the same frame when clicked gotoandplay an mc which exists in frame 3

View 4 RepliesI've adapated a carousel to work on a flat basis, and its working well. However i wish to add navigation to this that will scroll one image to the left/right when clicked. The problem is this navigation i've added works fine for first few clicks and then stops working due to it never reaching the correct destination... The formula im using is simple enough i just cant see why it fails....

View 4 RepliesI'm working on a friends site - Lorenshaw.net using CS3 and all of the code for the buttons is pointing to the right scenes yet it goes to the wrong scenes. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I also have some stop actions at the end of each scene. For buttons I'm using On release, gotoAndPlay "Scene, frame number"
View 1 Repliesam creating a shooting game. my main class in first frame now i want to add the title in front of the game if a adding frame in front make it stop function. the game play runs what can i do?
View 1 RepliesAfter my MovieClip has finished playing once (and ended on the last frame with stop()), I can't get it to play again with gotoAndPlay(x). It will go the specified frame, but will not play from then on. Is there anything else I have to add to actually make it play?my attached sample file which contains a menu that, for testing purposes, is supposed to play someMovieClips when the initial loading process is done.
View 6 RepliesWe have 5 buttons that each go to another frame e.g Product, Contact etc. but we want to play the same series of frames (an outro) and then goto the frame that corresponds to the button. Weve tried lots of different examples from the already posted questions and nothing will work. The latest I tried:

I have buttons that i've created to play a movie clip.My movie has labels for different parts of the movie.
on_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, turnOnTv);
function turnOnTv(event:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndPlay (20);}
Do I have to put the name of the movie clip that should play?
when my character hits a certain object, I want it to play the movie. BUT since the hitTest is techincally always true if my character is just sitting on the object the entire time, it continuosly player frame #2. What is the simple fix for this? The code that will just play movie clip ONE TIME, and not restart continuosuly?
View 1 RepliesI have a series of sections in the timeline and I'd like to use gotoandplay. How do I begin playback of another section of the timeline. Is there a way to detect the end of gotoandplay?
For example: 3 objects and 6 frames.
Each object has a animate in frame and an opposite animate out frame. At each frame the user can pick any of the three objects but if an object is already animated in then is must first play it's 2nd animate out frame. I need to detect the end of an animate out sequence to begin the first frame of the selected object.
I am working in AS2, and am looking for a code that allows me to stop the frame (which is easy: stop() and then make that frame "play" if you will for 30 seconds, and then gotoAndPlay("nextframe"). Is this even possible? I know there's a getTimer(); code, but I have no idea how it works. (I have animations going on in the different frames through movie clips, not on the timeline. Basically trying to make a "movie" with flash)
View 8 Repliesi am having trouble with my gotoAndPlay in my MC. i have An MC1 on main stage then inside it i have another MC2.

View 2 RepliesI want to create about ten twenty second movies and then have them play sequentially.
The movies are only slightly different from each other.I don't want to make a movie that is two minutes long though. I want the movies to play in a different order on each page.
I've got an MC calle "films" and inside of it I'm animation a bar of images across the screen from frame 1 - frame 180. At frame 180 and need it go back to frame 90 and play.I named fram 90 "repeat" and added the following code to frame 180:
stop();
this.gotoAndPlay("repeat");
But it doesn't goto 90 and play it goes back to 1 and plays.
I know this seems weird but I want upon reaching a certain frame. I want something like this to happen.
[AS]_root.gotoAndPlay(2);[/AS]
that is fine but at the same time I want this to happen also
[AS]_root.hidden.movie.gotoAndPlay(2);[/AS]
So basically target 2 movies to play at the same time. But for some reason it is not working for me.
im using adobe air for android.
my problem is (for now) i have a sprite with animation (7 frames) and two buttons. One button moves the sprite right at 15 units on mouse down, the other moves him backwards.
two things..
1. When i release the mouse, the sprite stops mid-animation, with 1 foot in the air. how do i get it to complete its cycle after the button has been released?
2. is there a way to flip, horizontally, my sprite so when i click the LEFT arrow, he turns around? Or do i have to mirror the sprites myself as new images?
i cant attach my FLA, but here is my code copy/pasted.
btn_right.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onDown);
btn_right.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onUp);

Im creating a website and when I test flash content in an html page locally on my mac, I get this annoying message
"Adobe® Flash® Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following local application on your computer or network: /Users/myname/Documents/Websites/mysite/version 1/site/Scripts/expressInstall.swf
is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location:fpdownload.macromedia.com
To let this application communicate with the Internet, click Settings.You must restart this application after changing your settings."
Ive tried following the settings button and adding "/Users/myname/Documents/Websites' to local storage settings by site but no joy the content still wont play and every time I refresh or test the page I get the same message. I want to add the whole websites directory so I don't get this message again, when testing other sites pages and content.
I have 3 external movies that I would like to play in this order.
first time someone visits the site they get 1.swf
second time they visit the ste they get 2.swf
third time they visit the site they get 3.swf
and everytime after that they get the same pattern 1, 2, 3.
