IDE :: What Is The Path To Get The LoadMovie Command To Jump Back To The 3x3 Grid Page From Movie
Jan 14, 2009
I have a HTML stageholder, this calls a "mainMenu.swf" which essentially controls my site. This "mainMenu.swf" has three buttons: intro, portfolio and contact which are all individual movies. So far, all good... When I have clicked into the portfolio section a 3x3 grid loads with nine buttons, one of these buttons loads a preview page for four movies, when I load one of these movies it plays fine. What is the path to get the loadMovie command to jump back to the 3x3 grid page from this movie? Basically, what is the command to jump up a directory when using loadMovie?
I have created an interface that uses a lot of the loadMovie command using levels. Once I have loaded a movie on say level 3...in that level 3 movieclip I will have another navigation that will load and then use the loadMovie command to load movie on level 3 as well. It loads it correctly but the back button that would contain the unloadMovie(3) command isn't unloading, say if the user wants to go back.
I have this movie [URL] its for a mates building company ok here is my problem (i will explain it to the best of my abilites) i have 3 buttons which each load 1 seperate SWF into an empty movie clip eg. servicesbutton loads services.swf into contentsMC that is fine that is working fine my problem occurs when the loaded movie button is clicked on again... it resets the loaded SWF back to frame 1... how can i make the loadmove command abit more cleverer? like dont load the movie if its already loaded?
I am brand new to scripting in Flash, and was hoping I could get some help on a question. I have an animation that is 300 frames long. The first 100 frames are an animated 'ad' (for lack of a better term), the second 100 frames are a different ad, and the third 100 frames are the last ad. This can be viewed straight from beginning to end (and is intended to loop if no action is taken), but I would also like to add some functionality to the animation, so that people can jump forward to the next ad, or back to the previous ad (hitting back from the first ad would take them to the third ad, and vice versa.)
[Code]...
This does not turn up any errors when I test the movie, but the functionality does not work. Am I anywhere near a working script, or am I attempting this in a completely wrong way?
I want to load a movie loadMovie ("target", _root....) and so on. My question is can you target a specific scene in the load movie command?? I have a movie with a button that loads a new movie into level 0 so it replaces the first movie. Now in the new movie I have a button that unloads the new movie and loads the previous one. But it starts it off at the veru beginning of the movie. I want it to pick up where the first button click took place.
I have a GUI using Flex. I have a condition like i need to execute some command line arguments in the local machine and get the results back or output back to a textbox area. How can i do a button on submit, execute command in the local machine and return the output?Command to execute example:
echo logfile.log | grep username
Code:
button1.onRelease = function () { // in this computer, it will now run a command, please wait. }
What is the command to jump to the last frame of the previous scene.E.g.: I have three scenes: sceneA, sceneB and sceneC. An element of the last frame of each scene links to sceneZ. Now I want a button in sceneZ that links either to sceneA, sceneB or sceneC depending on where I came from. prevScene() or prevFrame() doesn't work. I jump to another Scene and I don't know why.
I am using Flash5 to build a site. I am using the LoadMovie action to load either movie 1 or 2, depending what navigation button is pushed. I have 8 nav buttons, the first 4 buttons use the 1st .swf, and the 2nd 4 buttons, use the 2nd .swf.
My question is how do I jump to a sub-section within the new movie which is loaded using the LoadMovie command? This is the action I am using on the nav buttons.
on (press) { loadMovieNum ("movie1.swf", 0); } on (release) {
[Code].....
This works and both movies load properly, however, when I am in the 1st movie, and jump to the second movie using a nav button, the movie loads, but does not bring me to the proper sub-section. I find I have to push the nav button twice to get to the sub-section. The first time loads the movie2 and the second time I push the nav button, it brings me to the correct sub-section.
how to get around this and make the loadmovie and jump to sub-section with one button push?
I know there's been a million "how do I load a movie and than jump to a specific frame" thead. Well all of those have been helpful :: HOWEVER I wouldn't be posting because I can't seem to get my script to run successfully First the background I have a nav. menu made up of seprate movies clips :: inside each movie clip is four buttons :: these buttons are shown using a rollOver, rollOut dealy
anyway when you click on one of the buttons it calls "student.swf" to load into an empty MC called content.I've tried everything :: What happens is the button will load the MC but will sit on the first frame and do nothing :: the movie clip "student.swf" is not that big so I doubt I'm waiting for it to load.
I have a flash header for an html site that is about a megabyte and obviously needs a preloader. Unfortunately it won't work to have the preloader loading at the top while the rest of the html below is visible — it will end up looking like the top navigation is cut off, as the top 10 pixels of the nav bar is actually in the swf header (fully loaded it will look contiguous)Is there a way to preload it in one html page and then once it's loaded into the cache automatically jump to the page with the big swf?
As shown in the example... I have entered an action to load a movie when I press a button.It works fine but the original swf was made at 800 by 600 when I need it to be 400 by 200.Is there a way to have the video loaded smaller using some kind of width and height line to the command above?I don't want to have to go redue the swf I am loading in...In the swf, I am working on this for class, so It is not finished or have any real sense to it, other than what is required by the teacher

My site has a picture gallery. It works with a movieholder and the loadMovie command. It has 9 buttons, one for each picture, and they work. There's also a previous and next button to navigate through the pictures, there the loadMovie command gives problems.
Here are 2 lines that are used in the previous button: Code: _root.site.alles.movieHolder.loadMovie("images/1.swf"); Code: _root.site.alles.movieHolder.loadMovie("images/"+(fotovariabele1-1)+".swf");
I get the following error with that button: Error opening URL "file:///C|/school/multimedia/VOLLEDIG%20NIEUWE%20SITE/images/NaN.swf"
I know nothing about a Nan.swf. I don't understand why these lines don't work in the previous button, because the 1 button (the button that loads image 1) also uses the first line, and that works. I know only very basic actionscript, but the code of the previous and next buttons are supposed to be correct except for those lines with loadMovie. In publish settings is actionscript 2.0 set.
im working on an image gallery, its the one from kirupa (photogallery) the nextImage() function stops working when it has reached the last picture, but once it has reached the last picture and the user clicks 'next' i want it to start at the beginning again.
must be something like if (p == (total)) { p = 0;
Here is the current code.
function nextImage() { if (p<(total-1)) { p++; if (loaded == filesize) {
i am trying to write an image gallery using the loadMovie comand, loading jpegs into a blank movie clip the thing is, all the tutorials seem based around issuing the loadMovie command as you press a button to actually view that particular picture what I am trying to achieve is to have maybe the 1st and 2nd image of the gallery included in the flash movie and these load up and show instantly but whilst the viewer is looking at these the swf is busy preloading all the other images in the background. The idea being that images are loaded faster than the navigation that takes place so when the user clicks on the 3rd image it is already loaded and displays instantly and so on and so forth question is, how do i achieve this ? Do i still use loadMovie but have one script at the 1st frame that loads say all 20 images each into a different empty movie clip ?
I have the following which works fine just out side of the loop statement:
loadMovie("icons/test.jpg", "pIcon0.Icon");
But inside the loop statement no image shows up.
I need it in the loop statement because eventually the code will call the jpgs out of an array based on the loop variable. And put them in a movieclip number by the variable also.
I compiled two swfs into a single exe using a converter. Both swfs have the same 5 tabs for the 5 sections of my presentation. Swf A has all the stuff for the first 4 tabs, Swf B has the stuff for tab 5. When I start the exe & navigate all around in the first 4 tabs & their sub-sections, everything's fine. I can also click on tab 5 & the Swf B stuff starts playing right away & I can navigate all around in there.
BUT... After I've been clicking on the tab 5 stuff, if I click on any of the 4 tabs from Swf A it kicks me all the way back to the intro animation at the start of Swf A. What I need is to have it go to the first frame for each of those tabbed sections. (e.g. frame 5, 38, 93,...) I did gotoMovie & then gotoAndPlay & the frame number, but it sends me back to frame 1 anyway. How do I get it to go to the frame I want? This is in AS 2, by the way...
I have a photographer's portfolio site in the works. I'm using loadMovie connected to thumbail buttons of each photo to show a larger version of the photo. Here is the script[code]...
Now the photographer would also like to have a next/previous arrow buttons so the user can click through like a slide show. Is there a way to have Flash know what movie is currently loaded and based on that information go to the next or previous?
I have a Flash website with 3 interfaces( 3 frames with movie clips inside). they have a button that goes to different loaded .html page(text). But once the back button is pushed on the web browser, it always goes back to the first frame instead of the actual last page, which might have been frame 2 or 3.
Question: I have an swf that is 1024x1600 and is embedded in an html doc. I have content on the bottom of this swf that when clicked should force the browser to jump back to the top of the html doc containing the swf. This is simple to do with anchors and links in html, but is it possible with AS3?
I have two embedded flv's in the timeline, one after the other. There are no errors in the video files. When the "playhead" in the exported swf comes to the end of the two combined videoclips, it jumps back to the first frame of the 2nd video clip for a fraction of a second, before playing from the start of the timeline as it is supposed to. I have explicitly done a "gotoandplay(1) in a separate action layer, at the last frame of the "movie", but that's not what happens.
so i have a main timeline and a nested one. the main timeline has a button named "how_btn" that plays the nested mc (named "how"). once i get into playing "how", i have a button named "menu" that i want to bring the user back to the main timeline (where the "how" button is). this is how i scripted:
how_btn.onRelease = function () { gotoAndStop("how"); } menu_btn.onRelease = function () { gotoAndStop("nav"); }
the how button script works, however the menu button does not. is this b/c it's in a nested mc? i tried specifying the root, but that didn't do it either.
When landing on a certain frame, I'm trying to make a MC jump randomly either forward or back ONE frame in the timeline. Can't get random(whatever); to cooperate.
1)have a pop-up menu when a button is touched, then ok to close but still in the same page as it is 2)invoke the popup menu by using samsung's "MENU keycode",then ok to return the same page as it is 3)having the user to swipe 5 images to view them, left image as 1st and 5th image as last image with smooth transitions 4)and also using the "BACK keycode" to go back to previous page
