I am getting the following error when trying to move a Move Clip on it's x axis by a value of 5.:TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.at flashmovie_fla::MainTimeline/mouseDownHandler()[code]
View 1 Repliesjust working on making my footer playable.got the ship shooting and moving ok, though i would like the ship to only move in the x axes. what do i have to add to this code used to replace the mouse and move the ship_mc.
Code:

this._visible = 0;
Mouse.hide();[code]....
i'm trying to use actionscript so i can make an object move up and down the Y axis by inputing numbers into a textbox. However at the moment my object starts in the centre and then when i enter a number it only goes down, and im not too sure how i can use negative numbers to make it travel up the y axis. I was thinking of using the numbers -10 - 10 so -10 would go down and 10 go up. Here is my code
Actionscript Code:

for ease, I am using tweener to move the objects. I have randomly generated a load of Sprites, inside a container, along the (x,y,z) axis.
I want to scroll the objects along the x-axis when I move the mouse left and right.
Code:
function Scroll():void
{
cont = new Sprite();

I would like to make a similar effect with car movement found on that site:
[URL]
i assume that there will be something to do with "_x = _x+_xmouse" but how do i define the boundries and what about the wheel movement? Or maybe it would be better to do this as a MC and if x of the mouse is less than x of MC then prevFrame, if its more then nextFrame ? Have no idea how to put it all together
how to move the x axis of a movieclip.
I am almost finished with a site and I have five main buttons at the top- Home - About - Services - Portfolio - Contact. Then I have placed a movieclip in the center of the stage with an image inside that has a width of 3740. This leaves 747 for each section. I need it to move over 747 for each section plus or minus and I know that from Home to Contact it will have to move 2992 but I think I can figure all that out as soon as I just figure out how to get it to move and set a speed.
am trying to make a game whre i want the sprite to move from positive x-axis to negetive x-axis for 30 seconds and after dat it has to down along y-axis one step.
View 1 Repliesbasically this is the code i got from a kirupa tutorial and i just want the graphic to be moved on the x axis

I created bubbles using the snow 3.0 tutorial from here at kirupa. I slightly altered the code so it would be for bubbles on a canvas of 800x500.The problem with the tutorial is that it is for snow moving downward on the y axis. for bubbles in the water, I need them going upward.which part of the code I need to alter so the bubbles will move up and not down? Also, I need the life of the bubble to last the length of the canvas.
Code:
init = function () {
width = 800;
// pixels[code]........
I am trying to construct coordinates with distance in meters on the x-axis and time in seconds on the y-axis, without using the timeline. How can I draw the divisions on the x-axis and y-axis ? Or I better draw the whole thing.
var my_shape:Shape = new Shape();addChild(my_shape);
my_shape.graphics.lineStyle(3, 0xFF0000, 1);my_shape.graphics.moveTo(50,50);my_shape.graphics.lineTo(50, 300);my_shape.graphics.lineTo(500, 300);
I'm trying to grasp how functions and motion tweening works.
Heres my question. How do i make an object move along the y axis once it has reached its x axis target?
HEre is the code, that i got from here.
and what in this code is making the MC ease out?[code]...
I've put together this simple code for an SWF with three roll over images (called: Training, Resources and Contact).When I roll over Training I would like the symbol Training_txt to tween its alpha to 1 (from 0) and tween its y axis to 220 (from 83).When I roll out of Training I would like to run the two tweens in reverse.
This works fine for each of the three roll over images, so long as each tween is allowed to fully execute before a new tween is started. The problem arises if i quickly move the mouse curser between the three roll over images before the previous tweens have finished executing.In this instance, the tweened objects start to behave erratically. They usually return to their original position as per the roll_out tween but then start jumping between y axis 200 and y axis 83 (without tweening - they just appear).
Code below -
stop();
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;[code]..........
I'm making a chart where the x-axis needs to have dates and y-axis names. The lenght of the bar is longer when the date is later. But I want to stack multiple bars on eachother. for example This is the code I have so far

View 9 RepliesBaisically I've created a button using symbol and I want the button to move a movie clip up the y axis by 4 every time it is clicked (move the movie.) I really don't know how to do this. This is what I currently have but its not ActionScript:

Based on this Adobe multiple axis chart example: [URL]
Then I changed some data values to negative and my axis became not aligned anymore.
how to align vertical axis? Is this another Adobe bug or there is some property that aligns axis?

anyway i can move a container by holding down a button?for example if create a button and name it Btn_Right and the container is named fmcont.when Btn_Right is held down i want it to move fmcont to the right.
View 1 RepliesI have a .flv file (and also the original .mov from which the .flv was created) that i have imported into a new .fla - I also have created a button and assigned actionscript to the button that links to a new web page. The button works correctly. My issue is that I need the button to show up at 6mins42seconds into the video, and I don't know how to write the script to make it do so. I could do this easily if the video showed up frame-by-frame in my timeline, but since it's an external .flv I'm stuck. From reviewing the archives, I think I may need to use cue points? I have already re-encoded the .flv with a cue point added at the right place. The encoder also asked for 'name' and 'value' parameters for the cue point, which i wasn't sure what it wanted so just entered 'button' for both as a placeholder.The button links to a website perfectly, just need to know how to code it to move onto stage exactly at 6min.42secs. OR if anything do you know how to drag out the .mov or .flv from 1 key frame into many(seems would be easier that way)
View 4 RepliesI want to move my movie clip on the stage with a button which is also on the stage. I want the movie clip to move along the x-axis and have it constantly be able to move when the button is clicked. I have a script but once the movie clip has moved I can't move it again. I would like to be able to constantly have it move along the x-axis when the button is clicked and pick up where it left off.Here is my script:

I have made a simple Drag and Drop map, where its the map being dragged by the mouse. The thing is, i need to have a grid of buttons on this map, which you can click. But since im dragging the actual map, my buttons wont follow. They stay where they are.An example would be the united states world map, then each state is a button i can click. A problem would be that if the entire map is covered in buttons, then my mouse cant drag the background map as im selecting a button when i drag. perhaps i can make the buttons drag the map instead?This is the code for dragging the map:
Code:
Map.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, grabMe);
Map.buttonMode = true;[code]..........
I am making something like a slot machine and the main number (a movieclip placed in separate layer) moves vertically continuously.I made a button and how do I make the main number movie clip stop moving after pressing the button?Our office has Flash CS3 and all the actionscripts are manually written.
View 1 RepliesI recently made a simple Flash file with video with an alpha channel and three simple buttons. It's a site tour video, and there's a button in the lower right to exit the tour that takes you back to home page. When you move over the "Exit Tour" button, it transforms in size slightly to highlight it. However, PC users are telling me that they can't see the word "Tour" on the button, only "Exit" until you move over the button, then they can see both words. The button functions perfectly on a Mac. Also I've been told that the video often appears choppy and sluggish on PCs, and not Macs. I'm encoding and streaming on flash media server - 400kps, CBR with alpha channel encoded, size 880x512. This is put on a stage size of 980x667 in Flash - is this is just too big of a window for streaming to handle? I have attached some files for reference.
View 1 RepliesI want to move a button on rollover 1 pixel on the x&y. Here is my function:
por01_tmb_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, picMove);
function picMove(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.target.x=event.target.x+1;
event.target.y=event.target.y+1;
}
I have 16 buttons I have to apply this function to. Is there an easier way to do it than:
por01_tmb_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, picMove);
por02_tmb_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, picMove);
por03_tmb_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, picMove); etc.
excuse the lazy question but I'm tired of google I have been trying to learn about repositioning movieclips on the click of a button. So basically, the movie clip will move to a location on the screen in accordance to the browser size and relevant to the button pressed.
I have seen a few tutorials that move an object say, 100 pixels. But what I want is for it to move into the top left, or top right, or bottom middle of the screen regardless of the browser size.
I am trying to step from AS2 to AS3, not that easy.. I got to this point with a simple 3 frames movieclip. Frame 1 gives the option of loading 2 different external swf, frame 2 load directly a 3rd external swf, frame 3 nuttin happen. All works ok except when from frame2 i will go back to frame1, one of the 2 button (to load ext swf) disappear. The code i wrote down is prolly not the best.[code]...
View 0 RepliesI am currently doing a project that involves animating a background image up/down when buttons are pressed.
1.) It will need to check if a button has been pressed and then animate the background up.
2.) It will also need to check to see what the position of the background is. If it has been animated up already, it will need to be animated down.
3.) Finally it will need to contain if and else statements to animate the background movie clip. If, will animate it to y = 180. else will check the position, if it has been animated up, the background movieclip will be animated down to y = 330
this is old and I used to know but forgotten over time. How do you scroll an image across to a certain point when a button is released?
Preferably with easing.
I'm attempting to make a game which moves an object to certain x/y coordinates on the push of a button, but I can't figure out what would be needed.
View 1 RepliesI have a play button (instance name - play1)
When I click it I want it to play a short movie clip (called - introExpandMC) then for it to move on to frame 2 of my my main time line.[code]...
In my attached fla, you'll see a movieclip with a panel that rolls out upon rollover (or on click, whatever I can get to work) to reveal a panel containing buttons. However- I cannot get the buttons in this movieclip to work. I'd also like to put a text scrollbar on a copy of this movieclip (no luck so far for the same issue), but perhaps resolving the button issue will also clear the way for a working scroller
