IDE :: How To Control A Nested Movieclip

May 19, 2008

I have a nested movieclip that I need to control.I have searched the net and to this point I have been able to make it gotoAndStop at frame 1 and play().I can't make it stop.I understand that actionscript can be attached to the movieclip instance or placed on the root timeline.what I would like is direction to websites and or tutorials that might teach me how to control a nested movieclip.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Nested MC Control Main Timeline MC?

Dec 1, 2011

actionScript 2.0
flash mx4 pro

here is a description of the flash movie.I have a map of the world on the main timeline that is a movie. The map is compiled of buttons that navigate the main timeline to named frames. -Ex. If you click Africa from the world map you are taken to the �Africa� named frame on the main timeline. This works perfectly.At the Africa named frame on the main timeline I have replaced the world map with a large map of just Africa. This large Africa map is a movieclip instance that has script on it to be draggable. This works perfectly.

The Africa map contains little movieclips that blink. I would like the little blinking movieclips to control the alpha of a movieclip (when rolled over/off) that is on the main stage and timeline.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Make Slider Control Nested MovieClips

Feb 23, 2012

I'm using AS3, CS5.5, on Windows764bit. I created an animation with many different layers (and nested movieclips) on the stage, then wrote a short bit of As3 to add a slider control of the playback. The problem/mystery is that when I change the slider, the nested MCs act strangely/independently. How to control everything at once? Here is the current file: [URL]

Here is the code I added:
package {import flash.display.*;
import fl.controls.*;
import fl.events.*;import flash.text.*;
//for TLF crap public class SliderClip extends MovieClip {

Actionscript :: Flex - Measure The Height Of A Control With Nested Renders?

Oct 27, 2009

I'm using a List control. In the renderer of the List control I've got a Repeater. Each Repeater can have a different number of items. Adding to the complexity, one of the components being repeated in the repeater is a Text control that has long text that will wrap, increasing it's height. I need to expand the height of the List completely so that there's no vertical scrollbar. How can I do this?

I tried an extremely dirty attempt at calculating the Lists height based on the data source. From the data source I can figure out the number of repeater items and the number of items in each repeater in the List's renderer. But there's no way to compensate for the wrapping of the text in the Text control.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Button Inside Movieclip To Control Another Movieclip's Timeline?

Oct 23, 2009

I have a button inside a movieclip, to which I would like to apply a rollover function. When rolled over, this button (inside MOVIECLIP 1) would make (MOVIECLIP 2) jump to second frame. I'm using Flash 8.This is turning onto a real headache for me, since i've searched every single forum and thread concerning this matter, and nothing seems to work.

IDE :: Scale 9 On Nested Movieclip?

Jan 28, 2010

I'm trying to build a styled, rounded button movieclip that I can reuse/resize. So inside a movieclip, I have two layers:

Layer 1: A border, which is a shape - a rounded rectangle (or actually the stroke of a rounded-rect).

Layer 2: A nested movieclip which contains a shape for the face of the button. I have added filters to this nested movieclip to give it a beveled-type look - typical rounded button stuff.

So, I've tried applying scale-9 to the parent movieclip: in this case the border scales fine, but the face (with the filters) does not. So, then I tried applying scale-9 to both the parent and the nested face movieclip,I want to be able have the button self contained as a clip which I can pull from the library, drop on the stage, and scale without distortion - and so far, as mentioned,I can't figure out how the get the nested face, the one with the filters applied, to scale appropriately.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Get Nested MovieClip To Play

Aug 31, 2010

I'm having a problem trying to get some nested movie clips to play. I have three movie clips on three different layers all on frame one of the parent layer. each layer has a labIe (well just call it "layer1", "layer2. "layer3") I have a stop command on the parent level (on its own layer). each of the three movie clips has its own animation (the nested animation). The lower two have a stop command in their first frame(nested) so they wont play. Only the top movieclip would play on run. I want to place a gotoandplay command in the nested timeline of the above movie, that will start to play the next lower movie clip nested timeline, as the above one is ending, and repeat this process to cylce back around to the top movieclip. The overall goal is to have one animation move into the other using nested timeline smoothly.

I have a main swf that loads an external swf (WNC.swf). The external swf (WNC.swf) contains a scrollPane that loads another external swf (WNC_DATA.swf). I'm trying to target the WNC_DATA.swf from the main swf, so I can tell it to go to frame (2). The following code targets the first child swf (WNC.swf), however I'm unable to target WNC_DATA.swf inside the scrollPane.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dragging A Nested MovieClip?

If -- draggable -- moivieClip_A is created, and then moivieCLip_B is created as a child of movieClip_A, (when movieClip_A is dragged onPress, movieClip_B simultaneously moves with it), is it possible to change a property of movieClip_B with a mouse event? Seems as though movieClip_A's layer position / mouse events are blocking mouse events for movieClip_B.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Accessing A Nested Movieclip?

Sep 1, 2010

This is probably a very simple solution, but I can't seem to find it online. Basically, I have a button that need to change a movieclip's frame in it's parent.So I tried:

ActionScript Code:
_parent.slideshowImages.gotoAndStop(2);

But it's not working! I know I'm getting to the right locaiton because _parent holds a variable, and I can access that just fine. But I for some reason can't access the movieclip at all.

Note: I can't upgrade to AS3 (What I'm used to) as this isn't my file.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Nested MovieClip As Button?

May 14, 2009

I am trying to design a menu system that pops up which I have just about managed. however nested in the menu movie clip are a number of other movie clips which I want to use as buttons but I am having problems getting the movie clips to load a swf once clicked. I tried putting a button in side the menu movie clip and it would not even recognize the mouse over which makes me think you can not nest buttons or movie clips in another movies clip?

Here is the code

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Target Nested MovieClip In FLV Component

Mar 31, 2009

I have a video player that's control bar's x & y are over the top of the video. It is set to alpha 0, and when the user rolls over the video the control bar's alpha goes to 1 and becomes visible. I have a few even listeners and a function that makes this happen. My issue is that the buffer handle and the volume handle do not go to alpha 0, despite the fact that their parents do. The instance of "volumeHandle" is the child of "volumeSlider". "volumeSlider" does go to alpha 0, then to alpha 1 on rollover, but it's child "volumeHandle, is always visible. The same applies to the respective instances of the buffer bar.

I have tried
volumeHandle.volumeSlider.alpha = 0;
But that doesn't work. My guess is that the conflict lies in the linkage of the controls for the buffer and volume handles.
