Making Button To Start Animation
Nov 15, 2009
I'm very new at Flash and while Ive picked up the basics of tweening and creating animations. I'm trying to create an image of a post it note that is revelaed via a mask when a user rolls over a seperate image. I have created the animation of the mask and it revelas the note fine. My question is how do I create an invisible button and code it in action script so when I roll over image 1 my mask tween begins playing to reveal the post it.

This one is tough to diagnose. I built an animated jigsaw app that pulls in a dynamic .swf that can be viewed here: [URL] It works perfect in Chrome. Works in FF 3.5.5 until I start reloading. Doesn't even work in IE7. Could be a embed problem in the HTML. Could be something I did in flash. [I can get more into the methods I used] [for those that only see it working or don't see it working] There should be an orange animation of a morphing shape cutout into jigsaw shaped pieces and a start button. When it doesn't load, the animation, nor start button display. And the menu is slightly messed up.

I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";

Man, what a difference AS3 is to AS2, but good fun!
I have the following code on a movie timeline :
Actionscript Code:
var myvalue:int;myvalue = 1;mytextbox_inst.text = "Todays Value is : " + myvalue.toString();
I want the dynamic text to show "Todays Value is : 0001" but its showing "Todays Value is : 1". I just cannot remember how to make the dynamic text start as 4 digits?

I have a pretty complex problem... i am trying to make a match cards game and i managed to do most of it, i mean the engine part, but i got to mouse-object interaction and this is where i have quite a few problems... I started using TweenMax for the first time at making this game and I don't know how could i get a tween to follow another (if you understand what I am saying) I put a condition and if it is fulfilled, i wanted to start a tween and after that another tween of another object...

Trying to start an animation after a tween is done. Animation starts but way later, like 5 seconds after tween is finished.
Code:
var easeInPic:Tween = new Tween(bg, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 100, 1000, false );
easeInPic.stop();
function showPic(e:Event):void{
tweenPicEI();
}function tweenPicEI ():void{
easeInPic.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, showMenuBar);
easeInPic.start();
}function showMenuBar(e:TweenEvent):void{
menuBar.gotoAndPlay(1);
}

I want to use the same flash file on multiple pages on my website, but on some pages, I don't want the first two scenes to play-- they are introductions & a preloader, and I figure this would be smart to use the same file if the logo is already in the viewer's cache. I have my animation set to gotoAndplay a frame after the introduction, so I want to start it after the intro on other pages.How do I embed an animation to start at a different frame than Frame 1?

One slide of a slideshow I'm making I want the animation to end after it's completed without looping. I can do this by adding the stop(); command into the last frame of that slide, but if I return to that slide, it will remain in the end position instead of replaying.

I am looking for real simple scripting - I have a 15-25 frame flash tweened animation and all I would like to do is run thru the animation once then on mouse click go to frame one and start again. And of course I am under a time crunch and completely fogged with actionscript 3.0. I did some basic projects back in the director days and thought I could just pick up where I left off. If I remember right it was simple scripting like
gotoFrame
and
pause
etc...

I created a simple animation that is 90 frames long. How can I start and stop it at specific keyframes so it takes 3 separate mouse clicks to complete. Example: a picture is on my website. When you click it, the first 30 frames play and then stop. A 2nd click makes the next 30 frames play and a 3rd click makes the last 30 frames play.

I have a most simple animation which I want to start on mouse click. I use CS5 and ActionScript 3.0. I have one layer where my animation is in, and an actions layer. When I add a stop(); at frame 1, the whole thing does not start. So far, so good. How do I tell Flash that it should then start the animation after clicking the mouse?I am a complete newbie but have tried since hours to overcome this problem.

I have a line on a client who wants someone to create an animation that "starts with a keystroke". Info is a bit fuzzy right now, but I'm pretty sure that what he means to say is that he wants there to be an initial frame or scene and then for it to proceed, he just hits "ENTER" or whatever.

I'd like to create an endlessly looping movie that loads 3 images, then fades out each one using a tween to reveal the image just beneath it. As soon as the third image fades, I'd like for the animation to start over and just keep repeating. I'm trying to use a timer. I would imagine that a "for" loop would be used to repeat the animation but I can't determine how to make loop more than a select number of times. Below is the code I have.

I have created an animation by making a series of frames. So now I have a FLA file with the frames in.So far, so good.I can export this as a movie and create a SWF file.I can use this SWF file in a HTML document and get it to display in the browser.This is where I hit a brick wall. I have done a lot of searches but I am getting something wrong. I need to adjust this FLA/SWF so that in the HTML file, when the SWF is first loaded it does not play. If the mouse moves over the object it starts/continues playing. If the mouse moves away it stops playing.

I'm currently making a little header in flash. I created an animation ( things appearing and such ), and I like the way it is. But I'd like to know if it's possible to create two buttons : "stop animation" and "start animation", allowing people not to see the opening animation even if they reload the page and to skip to the last frame. The thing is it's the header of my forum : so it can be a bit annoying if it loads everytime you click on another page.
I read somewhere it's possible by using the "cookies", and a ... "shared object" ?

My final goal would be to have the animation pause after the first click, then resume with the next click and so on.So, after successfully having started the animation on I tried adding a

function stopF(e:MouseEvent):void{
this.stop();

Im a 100% beginner in actionscript so heres my question, as dumb as it may sound.
I want a shape to travel from px 0 on the x-axis to px 740.
The startposition on the y-axis needs to be random, and between 140 and 180.
I have tried the following code:
startY = Math.round(Math.random()*(180-140)+140);
startX = 0;
targetX = 740;
