Professional :: Alpha Fade On A Type Symbol Won't Publish?
Jun 14, 2010
First project in CS5 upgrading from CS3. I've got a very simple movieclip. A couple of layers of jpgs that pop in, scale up and run to the end of the clip. Two layers of type I have set in Flash and converted to symbols on separate layers. I did an old school tween and set the first frame symbol to an alpha of 0, and the last frame of the tween to 100%. I scrub the playhead and it works fine. I've done this thousands of times in Flash back through Flash 4.
I add the movie clip to the main timeline, give it a little alpha fade in to the main sequences and when I test or Publish the movie, it doesn't render the alpha fade on the type. It's as though the tween isn't there at all the type pops on screen full strength.Everything else works. All the tweened scaling, a couple of other alpha fades on other art symbols, but the type fade doesn't render.
I even went in and re-did the fades as motion effects. Scrub the playhead - looks good.Test or publish, there's nothing.

I installed Flash CS4 and the alpha doesn't seem to work. I follow all the instructions to the letter but get no results. I had no problems working in Flash MX

I have a tweened movie which plays on a loop. A click on the image area stops the movie and the image fades nicely from alpha 100 to alpha 0. A second click brings the image back immediately to alpha 100 and the clip continues. I would like the movie image to fade back in from alpha0 to alpha 100 before it re-starts; (the reverse of the fade out). At the moment the re-appearence of the image is a crude jump. So far my ill informed tinkering has not worked.

I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:

I've got a function 'onIntroFinished' which starts two tweens (musicPlayerIntro and fullResetBtnIntro). After each tween, an eventlistener is added to that particular tween to see when it's ended, so it can call on another function to start a new tween. The first tweens complete within the 'onIntroFinished' function....however, they don't go on to start the second tween in the 'musicPlayerIntro2' and 'fullResetBtnIntro2' functions? The trace statements are getting called for the second tween functions, so they're getting through to that point, but why aren't the tweens starting? Ocassionally when I test it, the second tweens half work, fading out to 50% alpha, but then stop and stay visible, rather than fully fading out. Is this necessarilly the best way to do a fade In/fade out alpha tween?

When I click on a field to edit, the | symbol that allows you to type new text (for example, a timeline folder's name) disappears as quickly as it appears, therefore no way to edit anything.

Now getting this error: Symbol 'levelcomplete'1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: nextlevelBtn. Hi guys, Beginner here having some trouble creating my first flash drag and drop jigsaw puzzle game. The drag and drop jigsaw puzzle works to some extent, but it is the "level complete" movieclip which is causing problems. On testing the movie i get this error:1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class.

I know this question has been asked a thousand times already, but I simply can't get it to work. I've looked at various other threads posts, but none of them seem to work. Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a button (Instance name: "go") and a MC (instance name: "fader"). Now, I want the MC to fade in on rollOut and fade out on rollOut. Currently, I have this code: In frame 1 of my movie: (taken from this thread)

private var stopBt:stopBtn;
private var playBt:playBtn;

error message....an internal build error has occurred, right click for more information.Since I add swc from flash in flex, I don't have to import these button...However, when I tried to create 1 more button (muteBtn) in flash and did the same thing again in flex, it gave me "an internal build error has occurred, right click for more information" error.When I created a var and tried to type :, there are no muteBtn datatype pop up.... I have spent 2 hours on this crazy crap and don't know WTF is going on.

Secondly here is my NEW problem.... I have some buttons on my page that fade as you roll over them, and they were working fine, UNTILL i changed my Publishing Settings>Flash >JPEG settings.. from 80 % to 100%. But even if i changed it to 81% it still messes up the fade. When i say messes up i mean the fade stops fading, and it just snaps from the pic to black.

I am using Flash 8 - trying to get started by simply fading in/out using Alpha. I totally get on the first layer converting image to movie, inserting key frame and motion tween, selecting clip and changing alphato 0%. Where I am absolutely lost - is when it comes the second, third, fourth and fifth image. I have tried inserting new layers and repeating the steps - but for some reason 2-5 images do not transition like image one.

Im using the following bit of code to advance through frames at a set interval. Each frame consists of a different quote (text) and while this works fine I want to add in a fade effect so that for the last second of the frame the alpha of the frame reduces from 100 to 0.Here is the timer code im using:stop();function goNext(){gotoAndPlay(2);clearInterval(timer);}var timer = setInterval(goNext, 10000);

I want to be able to fade to a colour, rather than alpha as I'm loading movies into a holder, when the alpha fade function is used it shows the surface beneath the holder and I don't want this to happen, so I tried to use a setRgb but it didn't work, how to fade to a colour not to opacity.
Here is my code:
stop();
timer = setInterval(this, "fadeOut", 1500);
function fadeOut(){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){

accomplish entirely in AS:
on button rollover, the button and title of the page fade in
on button rollout, they both fade out
on button release the MC fades in
on new button release, the last MC fades out
so far i have the following code for button so that on the rollover state, the title loads in a text field:
[AS]
on (rollover) {
_root.x + 1;
_root.caption.words = "shows";
[code]....
how and where to nest the rest of the actions into what i have so far.

What I'm trying to do is have an object go from 0% and fade to 100% when I move the mouse cursor over it.
For the life of me, I can't figure out the code to work this. I'm sure this is the easiest thing on the planet, but I've been working with AS for only about a week.
I've made the object a button symbol and given it an instance name of "btRed." I found the following code in the help file, but it isn't working.
function fadeBlock(event:MouseEvent):void {
btRed.alpha = 1;
btRed.addEventListener(MouseEvent.mouseOver, fadeBlock);
}

What I'm trying to do is make a movie clip button that will fade from a certain alpha to a different alpha when I mouse over. Is this possible to do withing the transitionmanager fade effect? Or do I need to make separate movie clips for the fade in and fade out sequence for the button over and button out parts?

I had to make a simple slide show for a client and they wanted it done in flash. I am not very good in flash and am having a problem trying to get the first image and text to fade in once the user clicks on the category they want.
I want both the image and the text to fade out and have a new image and new text to fade in when the user clicks the next or previous button. I would also like it if I could have the text be timed so that it will fade in AFTER the image it goes with fades in.
Right now the slide show is really ugly, I will make it pretty once I have it built and working correctly, so don't judge the look...haha.
Anyway, here is the .swf file which is what it looks like now...my .fla file was too big to upload on here. I would post the code, but I have so much in different places that I don't know where to start as far as what you will need.
I can't see the swf file that I uploaded when I click on it.

I'm making a flash banner, the intent is to display 3 text messages & images to the end user. The banner has a big white section in the middle for the text & image, with an image border. The border will fade between red to white to blue, and with each "fade" the message and center image will change.
flagging the moment when the text & image should update.
How it works: Each border instance (red, white, & blue) are simple images (turned to symbols). Each on their own layer which will alpha "out" of view or "in" view according to the timeline (in other words the red border image sits on top of the white, which sits on top of the blue. The red will fade away, showing white. Then white will fade away, showing the blue. Then blue will fade away and then the timeline will complete & loop back to display the red border).
For the text, it is dynamic & read from a txt file (file is named messages.txt). This is loaded into the message_text dynamic text object; the AS3 code is:
Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
//tell the loader that we are dealing with variables for the profile text.
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
[Code]...
2) Better than a frame number (as this might be edited adding & removing frames until this is complete), would be to trigger the change when the "white box" has it's alpha hit 100 (this is the moment it blinds out the text). Is there an event handler for that? How would I incorporate it?
3) If all else fails, use the TIMER event - and just trigger it to change every 5 seconds, which would aligned with the "fading" of the text
I'd like to learn more about AS3, so if there IS a way to solve this using option 2 - that would be pimp

I have a basic alpha motion fade which works using my flashplayer but not in flash players less than version 10 (no fade is present its just instantly there). If I change the player I am developing for in my movie settings the fade just does not work.
