i wanna do a flash that reads an xml, in which the xml tells my flash to show or hide movie clips (they have instance names).
Code:
//added in the frame
var elights = _root.mc_elights ;
var logo = _root.mc_logo ;
var croom = _root.mc_croom ;
[code]....
i however, want to do this via xml, so that i could have my programmer colleague create a php to call for this database.
I am trying to make, it involves someone pressing a button which generates a random number between 1 and 2, and depending on which number two images are displayed, "heads" and "tails".This is what I have so far on the button
on (release) {
var numCoin = random(2) + 1;
if (numCoin = 1) {[code]......
I need something like this (not correct code!)
if (MovieClip(this.root).myimage.x -= 100{
MovieClip(this.root).mybutton.visible = false;
} else {
MovieClip(this.root).mybutton.visible = true;
}
So I'm saying if myimage x position in less than 100 hide mybutton.
I would like to create a website 'banner' application in flash that uses action script to show or hide different movie clips based on a start and end date.
Originally I would have to manually upload new banners to a website one at a time. But if I had one file that could contain multiple banners I could have them turn on and off based on what day it was. Is there a way to do this with action script?
I am using a magnifying glass animation for my portfolio and I want he mouse cursor to hide, which I can work out with: Mouse.hide()
But when someone clicks on a section it then loads a swf file above the original movie so I then want the mouse cursor to show but i'm not sure what the code would be for this? Also then once they press on the close button of this swf file with: on (release) unloadMovieNum(1); _level0.enableBtns();}
I want the mouse cursor to hide again becuase they are on the main movie again.
I need to show and hide multiple DIV layers by clicking on buttons inside an embedded flash movie. I looked around and the closest I got was this tutorial here:
[URL]
but the problem is I need 10 buttons to each show one layer while hiding the other ones. For example, I click button 1, layer 1 shows, then I click on button 5, layer 1 is hidden and layer 5 shows etc.
How can the above code be split so instead of showing all DIV layers at once, it shows one and hides the rest??
I have a movie clip that displays an embedded html with a bunch of divs that are expected to hide and show other divs when the users click them. i.e. imagine that you have a span with an instruction in javascript to show a div when you click it. I already made the html file, the external css and the external js. The movieclip (in actionscript 3.0) loads and displays the html content and also the css, but i haven't managed to figure out how am i supposed to link or use the javascript to do the trick. I've tried so far doing an exhausting research over the internet for the past few days and the only infromation i've got is that web developers use externalInterface to access javascript functions, but they use flash buttons to execute the js code, and it appears to me that i cannot use or embed flash btns in my site. I don't know, I'm kinda new to flash and this is the first time I work with actionscript 3.[code]or how do I achieve de hide/show thing with another method? I'll be wandering around the site in case you have any extra doubts about this subject.

How can I hide a movie clip (HideMe_mc) which is on Stage when I open my .SWF file? User can unhide it whenever he required.
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip that has an image on it.
I want to dynically open this movie clip and move it to a specific location (x,y) on the main timeline on top of everything else.
Then I want to draw lines on that new movie clip that display on top of the image on that movie clip.
how to draw the lines, (well at least I think I do)
Code:
_root.audiogram.lineStyle(2, 0xFF0000, 100);
_root.audiogram.moveTo(0, 0);
_root.audiogram.lineTo(200, 150);
_root.audiogram.lineTo(100, 50);
I also need to be able to clear the lines that are drawn.

View 3 RepliesI wish to get a movie clip nsw_btn to display a movie clip nswMC using addChild. I have the elements on the stage already and have created the script for the second part of the animation which is all inside nswMC.The action I am trying to evoke is a mouse click to show points of interest. then a rollover mechanism to show details. then a mouse click to hide nswMC
View 0 Replieswhat i want to happen: when you click on gallery -> then bfa, it shows a list of names (movie clips). when you rollover a name, it plays a yellow fade in and a fade out on rollout. when you click a name, it opens an external movie clip that takes up the fullscreen. i want the movie clip that was just clicked to stay activated (yellow - to show that you already viewed this one) but still be clickable.
[Code]....
the this.enabled = false; keeps the name yellow but once you click it, you can no longer click this link. i think i'm really close and i hope I explained this as clear as possible. i just need to know what script would keep the movie clip stuck on the out.
I am trying to figure out what as i need to unload my movie clip. Here is the AS i used:
[Code]....
is I only want it to show in one scene and it is covering everything on the other scenes as well or "Pages".
I've made a 30 second *.avi file and converted it to SWF
And then I remembered I need to put link inside the Flash so I decompiled it and put this in *.fla file;
Code:
onMouseDown = function(){
my_url = "http://www.link.link";
getURL("http://www.link.link","_blank");
};
But that doesn't make mouse pointer change to hand when it's over the banner.
How do you get dynamic text to show up within a specific movie clip instead of simply on the stage?
I've created a dynamic text field and given it an instance name (banner_txt). I'd like to use a variable to hold the .text info for this field, that way the banner's label can change when people go to a new section of my website.
I'd like to show a movie clip when you hover over a button and then have the movie clip disappear when you move off the button. I am using a button because the button has different visual states and thought it would be easier than coding a mc to function like a button.

Making a photo slide show to load as an external movie clip on my site when a button is pushed . Here is a link to the .swf file:[URL]..Basic problem: There is text that describes each set of 6 pictures. After the set of 6 pictures plays through the text is supposed to disappear and a new text appears to label the next set of 6 pictures. Problem is: the text doesn't disappear!
I made all the text layers a symbol/movie clip. I animated each text to disappear at a certain point in the timeline but when I test the movie the texts just remain there and build up one after the other.
When watching the movieclip, pay attention to the text in the lower left screen.
[Code]...
if i have the following actionscript on frame1 inside a movieclip with the identifier name "inventory"
[Code]...
i get no errors but i also do not get the text to show up in the code that follows. (it DOES show up if i leave it embedded in the movie clip instead of putting it into the .as file)
Several arrays are created by passing a number (k) from a different array,for every item in the array I need to have a little dot.I have a movieclip on the timeline with a maximum of 15 dots.So if the array has only 6 items, the last 9 dots should dissapear.
PHP Code:
function fill_items(k:Number) {
var item = josXML.firstChild.childNodes[2].childNodes[k];
[code].........
But the dots_total[t]._visible = false; part isn't working...Maybe it's the wrong way to achive this, but i can't seem to figure out why it's not working.
