I am still new to flash and creating button which allows you to click a button to go to that slide. And also have the flash to automatically play/stop. The slideshow will go to the next slide when you click on the picture, but I am in the dark. The flash uses xml to load the picture and I am having a hard time trying to grasp understanding xml.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make an interactive story in Flash CS4, but I am completely new to Actionscript 3.0.
I have an FLV which I want to act as an intro, then when it has finished playing I would like to automatically go to the next frame in the timeline and stop.
I have 2 samples that play with a click on a button, however, I want one of them to stop playing if the other one is played; so that only one sound will ever play at any one time.

View 4 RepliesThis is my first flash project and I am attempting to create a slide show that automatically changes frame after a certain time, but also have buttons for each frame. [URL] is the page where i have the flash slideshow on. I used a tutorial to make the nav bar, and used what I learned there, as well as some googling to attempt the slideshow. So far I think its turned out pretty good, but I have a problem. THe buttons work fine, but the auto change gets stuck on the second slide, even if I click to a differnet button to goes back to frame 2. Which makes me think that the function doesn't even go past the if(frame==1). here is the code
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var img1FadeIn:Tween = new Tween(img1, "alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 1, 5, true);
stop();
var slideTimer = setInterval(nextslide, 8000);

(Flash CS3, Dreamweaver CS3, Mac OSX)
I can encode Flash video, and place a nice skin (controller bar) into the file, within Fash, but when I place the final .SWF file into my Dreamweaver page (Insert-->Media-->Flash), and test it in a browser, the vid will play automatically and there is no skin (controller bar). The skin file is residing in the same folder as the .FLV and the .SWF file, but for some reason the skin refuses to allow itself to be seen.
So this is my code so far:
on (press) { // Gives your movie a button functionsgetUrl("http://www.astahost.com");}
on (rollOver) {this._alpha=100;gotoAndPlay("Scene 2"); }
[Code]....
when i play the movie, it plays scene 2, however, scene 2, which is in my flash document, plays automatically. how can i stop this? is there some code which only makes scene 2 play when called for and not play automatically.
I have a flash CS3 slideshow that loads it's content from an external .xml file.

View 1 RepliesI have just recently returned to flash after a very looooooooong time! I moved out of the flash world a few years ago and have been working in design for print. A friend has asked me to help create a flash slideshow for them. I know how to do this using older versions of flash but there seems to be a quicker way in CS3.I have selected from the opening menu, Flash Slide Presentation.I have created my slideshow and added transitions.Everything looks great however I can only progress the slideshow using the arrow keys.My question is...Using this slideshow setting can I set my slideshow to loop through the slides automatically instead of progress with the arrow keys?
View 2 RepliesI created a website in Flash, published it, and uploaded the swf and html file to the server. When bringing up the website Flash doesn't play automatically. I first must right click and select play. When I was testing my flash site on another server, it worked great and played automatically. Is there something within flash that I need to modify or is this an issue with the server?
View 3 RepliesIm working on a slideshow based on the jquery cycle plugin (found here: [URL]. The slideshow slides between different divs where I can put different content such as images and text. However i'd also like to add swf movies to the script wich just on a basic overview works. The video starts playing when the slide becomes visible but stops before it's done and goes over to next slide.
Of course this happens since i have a timer for how long each slide should be visible. What i wonder though is if there's a way with the script for it to dynimacly get the length of the video and not change slide until the video is complete and just do this for swf videos.
I need to create an interactive slideshow where the each image automatically slides to the left every 10 seconds. There should also be the option of clicking a button to move both back and forth as well.
View 1 Repliesi have an xml driven photogallery with thumbs and the slideshow starts automatically and is cross fading and it has a next/play/pause/for buttons.

I found this snow script on the web that I would like to use but I don't know how to turn it off.
It starts working when I load the script into frame 1. Then I would like for it to run 150 to 200 or so frames and then I would like for it to stop without using any type of button. I would like for it to just stop automatically after reaching the last frame. A simple stop(); in the last frame doesn't work.
Code:
// max number of snow flakes on screen at once
var nMaxFlakes = 100;
// fastest speed that the snow flakes fall

How do you stop a FLV from playing automatically when the user ends up doing something that doesn't include pushing the stop button but causes the FLV to no longer be visable. The project I'm working with. [URL]
View 4 RepliesI just got Flash CS3. I'm trying to get my main timeline to stop in the begining, on button press to play and at the end stop again. In AS2, you would just put stop(); on the first keyframe and stop(); on the last key frame and program your buttons accordingly.
The stop(); does not work!!!! It's driving me crazy. What am I missing? I've gone through the tutorials in Flash and they don't work either.Also, if you have MovieClip that contains an animation and you don't want the movie clip to be on a continuous loop how do you stop it from playing. In AS2, I would put a stop(); on the last keyframe of the movieclip's animation. This also does not work in AS3.
I need to stop a slideshow(from rhamej on kirupa), once it's started, when one of the image thumbsis clicked.I've tried in many ways, but nothing works.newBut(thumb button)
PHP Code:
newBut.onRelease = function() {
checkThumbs();
[code]....
each frame on the main movie pulls in an external jpg. on entering that frame.this movieclip ( slideshow timer) is associated with a play button.frame 1 (slideshow timer)just has a stop.once the play button is pressed then the following code in frame 2.(slideshow timer) begins to switch through the frames on the main movie.but if i want to stop the slide show it doesn't seem to do anything.i suspect that a function cannot be removed but have not found anything to say whether it can or can't.
function jumpFast(){
_root.nextFrame()

I imported a video in my "about me" section of my website with a skin chosen from within flash. However, when I click within another section of my website, for example "Home" and go back to the "about me" section, the video starts playing automaticly. If your speakers are turned all the way up, you will jump.
What is the code I need to add to my video's actions layer to stop the video from playing automaticly and give the the user the ability to play the video themselves?
And what would be the code if I wanted to reduce the volume at 50% for example but have the video play automaticly?
It is perfect, except that I'm not sure how to keep it from playing automatically. I tried removing the playSong() part under the loadSong function and it just removes the ability to play the song altogether. Here is the code:
import fl.controls.ComboBox;import fl.data.DataProvider;
///////////////////////////////////Variables/////////////////////////////////var song:Sound;var channel:SoundChannel;var xform:SoundTransform;var

I've used a example mp3 lpayer built in flash to put on my website. I've tweaked it so that it fits my design and it seems to work ok. The problem is the music starts playing automatically where ideally i want it to play when the user hits the play button.

i am trying to stop the music playing straight away, and instead only when the button is clicked.

//Stop at this frame
stop();
//Create a new sound object

I have been given the task of converting a macromedia application to a web app. It seems the application begins with the shell.swf once the exe is started. I have experimented with embedding the project's different swf files, and one thing I've figured out is that entire project works without the exe if the the shell.swf is somehow started. I've been opening and running the shell.swf with CS5.5 flash professional. *I do not have the source project.
This leads to my question. All of the swf files of this application autorun when embedded into an aspx, except the shell.swf, which appears to be the directing file of the application. How can I get this shell.swf to autorun from an aspx load event? I pretty much need to mimic the Flash Professional's play button. This is an interactive application to educate young people about the Buffalo river, and it is somewhat robust. I am almost certain that once I can get the shell.swf running on a webpage, the entire app will run it's course.
I have been working with AspNetFlash, but I have not been able to achieve the desired effect. I need to get this running so the client can utilize the program over the next few months while I am re-writing the application to store user interactive data.
