I made a short movie at the beginning of my project and afterwards I made a symbol-movie clip with many motion tweens (at the end of the symbol animation I put stop(); ). Now I have a problem - how should I insert my symbol-movie clip after my first short movie? To one frame or to more ones? I have tried some ways but I have not found the solution - the symbol-movie clip is not ruuning in my main scene.

I am facing a problem in one of my animation with flash CS4 - I have nested a Shape Tween in a Motion tween to get more control over the easers and effects, unfortunately I am not able to view on the timeline of my Motion Tween the action of the Shape tween nested inside.
It only show the first shape of the Shape Tween during the entire Motion Tween and that is really a problem for me because I need to see the final frame result of that Shape tween to be able to position it in a precise way on my scene according to other instances.

I'm making a "master movie" for an assignment and I'm stuck right now. What I've got is an Intro page that will serve at the Parent.swf to load 4 other child swf's upon a mouse click. The problem is I have a theater stage where I tweened an animation to make it appear the curtain on the stage is going up but once it reaches it maximum height....the tween abruptly stops. I want it to HOLD there until a user clicks a button.
How would I make this happen? Here is the page in question: [URL]...
No..not that type of parenting ;DOK,I have a main scene, then sitting in the root scene I have 2 movie clips.1)centro2)fotoIn the first movie "centro" there is a menu btnI want this menu btn to call up mclarge + its frame (1) thats housed 3 levels inside the foto mc in root.
Main scene - (1) centro (banner which houses menu btn)
(2) foto_mc
- Main_boy_mc (<---works if menu btn houses in here)

Shall i start second tween for a MC, its already a running a tween?
I have two red dots in my stage. Initially i start moving those dots from a position to another position, while tweening start i m calling a function for starting a new tween using "MOTION_CHANGE" class, In that function i m trying to make a blink effect to those two red dots., Not working..
Here my codes...

Is there a way to convert a classic tween to a motion tween?
View 0 RepliesI can get by and make nice flash sites, but I'm still learning what goes where and am still borrowing code to get by.I've laid the problem out in some detail as I am sure that will save a lot of questions later on, but feel free to ask if you want more info.Problem is as follows: I've built a two scene flash site using open source code for the preloader scene:[code]The main scrolling menu scene works great when it's a one scene movie and the preloader code works fine with a load of other sites I've built, but when I put them together on this site (the code for the scrolling menu precludes the addition of a preloader directly into that scene so separate scenes are a necessity) everything goes to pot.When testing the site (both as a standalone SWF file and when embedded in an HTML file) the preloader works fine and the main scene appears correctly, but when you click on any button to move back or forth along the menu/timeline it jumps and jerks along very roughly and stops short of its designated point.
This causes the whole scene to fail as the designated timeframe for each button contains a movie instance that won't function until the specific timeframe is reached.It's odd behavior and I'm stumped as both chunks of code work fine separately.I've even tried a much simpler preloader that doesn't display percentage or anything, it just cycles between frame one and two until the movie loads and then plays it (just like this one, but with no bells or whistles).Unfortunately my lack of actionscript knowledge prevents me from even finding a simple term to sum up the problem so I've failed to find any similar issues on any forums or Google.
How do I add motion blur to a motion tween?
View 2 RepliesPut 2 identical tweens, 1 motion tween, the other classic tween.Are there any differences in the final weight (Kb) of the resulting .swf file?
View 1 RepliesI added a website preloader in a separate scene to the main frame of my website and scripted it to go to and Play the main scene or frame of the website when finished loading. I then put a command in the first frame of the main scene for the movie to stop (); at that point. The problem is that now the buttons on the main page don't respond to any behaviour commands to go to and stop at other frames in the main scene. I'm not sure if this is a conflict between the stop(); command in the main scene and the button behaviour command to go to and stop at another frame or an error with the way I'm identifying the scene and frame.

View 1 RepliesI am try to go from a main scene to a second scene in Flash. The code work just fine to take me there, but when the scene appears it seems that I lose focus with the scene and the actions that should runs doesn't until I click once on the screen. Now I am using a button to navigate from one scene to another. If I use a movieclip instead of a button then everything works just fine. In my second scene I am using the keyboard to control different things in the scene.
View 1 RepliesI have a project for mobile where some of my animations scenes look as though they are winding up or playing in slow motion (from the start). They start out slow for about three seconds, as if they are winding up or in slow motion, and then they run at a normal pace. It only happens on specific animations and is consistent on different devices. Also, once I come back to the scene (revisit), the animations run normally from start to finish.
I have had some success in speeding up some animation by doing the following: In some scenes, the following would occurr: 1) a character was walking 2) the character grew in size though tweening 3) the background was animated as well ect. In other words, there were several things happening in the animation. In this example, I made it less complex by keeping the character the same size and making the background static. This helped alot. However, for the aforemation animations, I have tried everything (I am aware of) and nothing has helped. I'm not sure what to do next.

I am using the following code to tween an movieclip once _global.choiceMade equals 1...
onClipEvent (load) {

The script at the top is on a movieclip these buttons are contained in called buttonHolder which does what it says, and tweens the buttons across the screen to reveal a next button once an answer is chosen.
whether it be text, symbol, a shape that I drew. None of it works. When I create the motion tween the line arrow in the timeline doesn't show up like it should. Here is the extremely simple animation i'm doing. The problem are for the bottom 9 layers starting from frame 80. I converted all of those to graphic symbols and I'm just trying to do a very simple alpha 0-100 while resizing the letters. I've also tested motion tween on very simple shapes and it never works. I just don't get it.

Has anybody found a way to ease motion only between keyframes, not the whole animation? In classic u get separate easings.Generally, I want to convert old tween to new for more control, but it seems to be impossible.
View 4 RepliesI created some text, converted into a movie clip and I have three keyframes - 1,5,15.at 1 the text is as it is, at 5 i flip it horizontally, using the transform tool [q key] and at 15 i flip it horizontally it again, so it's normal again And I've put motion tween between both the places. Now when I preview the swf, from 1 to 5 the text animates as it is supposed to clockwise but from 5 to 15 it rotates clockwise
So it covers 1/2 revolution and then traces the same half back to become normal again.What must I do in order to make it swivel in clockwise sense only ?
-Take a circle and place it in the center of a square scene.
-Make a rectangle and snap its left edge to the circle's center.
-Make another rectangle and snap its left edge to the right edge of the first rectangle.
How would you make it so movement doesn't happen at the registration point but on the whole arm. Say i ran a rotation script on the upper arm with +=1 and the lower arm with +=2. How would you place the parts, what format would they be converted to and what would the script format be. Multiple methods would be welcome of course!
I would like to know how to stop a running tween when rollingOver a sprite. I used to stop the tween on as2, but I don't know how to acces the running tween on as3 because of the var statement before the tween name.I guess the score is modifying the 2 lines:
over_handler1.stop();
over_handler2.stop();
My code is this one:
Code:
function fc_hitOver(e:MouseEvent):void {
