Actionscript 2 :: Get 2 Banners To Wait Until Both Are Loaded?
Jul 21, 2011I have two Flash banner ads, built in CS5.5, using AS2, that will be placed on a page together and appear to interact with each other when played at the same time. Similar to this: [URL]..
The problem is that they might not load at the same time. How can I get each banner to check that the other has finished loading before playing?
I had read that LocalConnection was the way to do this, but I haven't been able to find anything that explains it well.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Wait Until Movieclip Has Loaded Before {do This}?
Feb 3, 2009essentially, I'm loading some clips dynamically via xml offstage...they then pan to the center of the screen. Pretty easy, except the files (about 100k+) aren't loading fast enough, and they're showing up halfway through the tweenYes, I know, I need to wait until the clip has loaded...but how? I've tried onLoad(success), getBytesLoaded() ==getBytesTotal() etc...but I can't so much as get the file size of the file at the end of the xml branch. Before I go any farther, here's the code:
button.onPress = function() {
var itsloading = _root.gallcon.gal.attachMovie("loader_circ", "loading", 60);
itsloading._x = 380;

View 5 RepliesAs3 :: Flash - Wait Until Image Loaded On Button Click
May 6, 2011I have a slideshow that loads image files with the BulkLoader class from here. When the first image is loaded completely, it gets added to a MovieClip container to add it to the stage.. and it gets displayed fullscreen, but only if a button is clicked:
fullScreenButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showFull);
function showFull(e:MouseEvent):void {
stage.addChild(mcSlideHolder);
[Code]....
This works fine unless the fullScreenButton is clicked before the image is loaded completely, then of course nothing is visible. How do I get button click event that calls showFull() to wait until the image is loaded/added to the container or how can I add it again? What is a possible/the best approach?
I tried dispatching a custom event "firstImgAdd" that adds the image again to the container when the fullScreenButton is clicked, as well as with a try/catch block or even a simple if condition but none of them worked, meaning the image does not get added to the container after it has finished loading when the button is clicked too early.
Flash - LoadVars Doesn't Wait Until Data Is Loaded
Jun 8, 2009variable = 0;
function change() {
variable = 1;
}
[code]....
The problem is that it executes #Second before #First, which means that the object is not fullly loaded but the code continues nonetheless. Is there a way handle this? I have tried using a while loop, but this is ugly and makes flash crash. Is there any decent way to handle this, does it have to do with better code structure/program flow or is there a technical way to make it wait? Also note: This code is executed on the server side, which means there are no frames involved.
UPDATE:When projects get bigger, this gets very ugly, especially when you are retrieving mulitple things from a server, you have to use very deep nesting, you have to keep repeating the same code, example for buying a serial:
a.onload() {
if(moneyAmount > 10){
b.onload(pay) {

ActionScript :: Wait For Image To Built Before Loading Frame
Jul 5, 2011I have a script that takes lots of content and builds 1000s of MovieClips on the stage, does lots of drawing etc. Due to the high amount of work needed when the frame first loads this can sometimes be delayed by a second or two. The more the user uses the application the longer and longer this is likely to be (more data to siphon through and build). My question to you is how do I make sure the frame doesn't show (serve a loading image or something) until it is built? I don't want the user to see the skeleton of the page and then everything appear a second or two later.

May 7, 2010I wrote the following code to have flash stop on frame 1 and wait for the click on the start button. I will use the animation in Connect Pro and without a Start button, the audio starts before the video. Here is the code and following is the error I get in the Compiler when I play the animation. The button does have the instance name play_btn :
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);

The error I get is:

ActionScript 2.0 :: DELAY Function - Make It Wait Before It The Timeline Goes To The Certain Frame#?
Feb 3, 2009Okay my_btn will do this;
image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");
gotoAndPlay(frame#);
What i want to do, is, make it wait before it the timeline goes to the certain frame#, so the image_loader1 loads its image1. I'm making it wait, not because it takes time loading (which it would not, since image1 is already on the stage, loaded up in image_loader2) but the image still takes time to show on the image_loader1 (half a second).So, I want my_btn to be functioned like this that it performs its first action which is
'image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");' and then 'gotoAndPlay(frame#);'..
ActionScript 2.0 :: Load The Clip And Wait Until It Is Finished Then Immediately Choose A Frame On Load?
Jan 25, 2010I'm using loadMovie() to load external swf's and then send the swf to a specific frame, depending on the button that is pressed.
Code:
on(release){
_root.mc_mainloader.loadMovie("Main.swf")
_root.mc_mainloader.gotoAndPlay("fadeup");
}
Unfortunately it ignores the second line, which appears to be because the movie hasn't loaded by time it gets to the next line. As a work-around I made an interval to check for the movieclip width to be more than 0 and then run a function that chooses the desired frame, but this is very unreliable. Is there a simple way to load the clip and wait until it is finished, then immediately choose a frame on load?

I can find the swf loaded using the debugger and see the currentLabel and Frame but when I try to get the information it sends a DisplayObject error.

I want to be able to tell flash to move to a frame label in my main movie when that loaded MC has played the last frame but I have no idea how to do this.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Go To Scene If Frame Is Loaded
Feb 6, 2009My movie goes to a home page, if the user clicks "contact" (for example) then the value of 5 is set to i and the movie preceeds to play a small transistion. At the end of this transition there is code that says if i == 5 gotoandplay(83).
The problem is I need it to see if that frame is loaded yet and if not, just stay on the current frame until it is.
Code:
if (i == 5)
{
while (framesLoaded <= 83) {
}
gotoAndPlay(83);
}
I assumed this would lock in a loop until it is loaded,However it obviously does not work

ActionScript 2.0 :: Specific Frame In A Loaded Swf?
May 16, 2005I have a dropdown menu that I'm learning to use from a tutorial. It's just a little over my head and am wondering if someone could help me. Here's my situation:
1) The menu has the title, DESTINATIONS. Submenu dropdown are a list of CONTINENTS. Rolling over CONTINENTS show COUNTRIES. This works.
2) Clicking on a Country should:
A) load an external swf into an empty movie clip :: Works!
B) go to the COUNTRY specific frame within that loaded movie clip. :: Doesn't work!
Here is a sample code from this menu, where it defines the fields that populate the menu:
var menu_0 = ['Destinations',['Africa#destinations1.swf|Rwanda#destinations1.swf |Uganda#destinations1.swf|Kenya#destinations1.swf| Madagascar#destinations1.swf|Botswana#destinations 1.swf',
'Asia#destinations1.swf|Japan#destinations1.swf|In diat#destinations1.swf']]
how to direct the link in the menu in a specific frame in an externally loaded swf? I can do this on a 'normal' button using placeFrame, but because I'm unfamiliar with how this particular menu is made, I don't know how to implement what I know.
