Play animation and after clicking the button once it no longer works. The button takes you to the frame labeled "shake". I want it to continue to take you to "shake" each time it is pressed but its not.I've got a button inside of a movie clip - actually its inside of 2. The first MC runs through and stops on the stop(); frame and than you click the button that sends the play head to the frame labeled "shake" which plays the next MC with the same button inside of it. I have put the button's action on its own layer on the first frame. The length of that buttons timeline starting from the first action keyframe is the length of the time of the other 2 MC's.
The Code
mcButton.shakeButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
I have a files that is loading and parsing a huge amount of data from a csv file and creating and plotting a graph using the data. All is well if I have the file loaded on the first frame of the movie. But if I pass in the URL by entering the file name in a text input field and clicking a button. The X and Y axis values disappear as do intermittent notes placed above the bar graph. I still see the x and y axis and it's hash marks and the bar graph (shapes) but all of the text is gone.
am i publishing the movie incorrectly? It works great when I preview the flash file (cntrl+enter), but after I publish it and insert it into the html (in dreamweaver), the file shows up and animates perfectly, but when clicked, no link... It doesn't do anything
I have flip_mc which contains listSide_mc and videoInfoSide_mc both of the above mc's contain a button name spin_btn.My flip_mc should rotate around the y axis and swapping whichever of the 2 (listSide_mc and videoInfoSide_mc) should be visible.All the rotating and adding a child stuff works fine.BUT the whole flip_mc seems to be a button, the spinIt function runs when I click anywhere on the mc, it should only happen when I click the spin_btn buttons.[code]
I am relatively new to Flash CS5, using AS2. I have made two buttons on the same frame linking to two separate urls. I made them the exact same way, however only one of them works when tested in the swf file. I put the buttons on two separate layers thinking that could have been a problem, but it still won't work. There is no error, and when the house hovers over both buttons the finger shows, recognizing that it is a button. Only the second button will actually open up the webpage.
OKay, I have a drop down menu. Around the menu I have a button surrounding the outside, so when I roll away from the drop down menu and roll over the outline button, it is coded with action script to make the drop down menu fade away.
I created a button in flash. I gave it a different state for 'over' and 'down' - changing the color and scale respectively, so it looks depressed when you hit it.I then assigned an action to the button so that when it is 'hit' you are taken to another scene. However when you hit the button it goes to the scene but you lose out on the 'hit/depressed' part of the buttons state!? Why?
How do you keep the hit state intact with the button whilst simultaneously assign an action?I understant 'the action' is to go to another scene first, but can it not also show the 'hit state too?[URL]
Trying to recode map program to utilise modest map rather than original hand made map routines. Finished up yesterday and had squashed bugs pretty much(annoying flicker issue but that didn't appear on another web browser I figure it's flash/browser related issue). Then I realised I need to try this in IE as well. And it doesn't work. Map loads up so modest map code is working. What is NOT working is everything else. It's supposed to track locations and draw arrows to their positions.
It doesn't go to where it's supposed to initially. No arrows are drawn. No control buttons from HTML side work. Nothing. Zip. I have suspicion it could be the ExternalInterface which works differently on firefox and IE. Could that be reason? If so how does one go detecting what browser I am using and how does one need to take that into account? Or is there something else that's different between IE and firefox I need to take into account?
IE itself only gives rather mystified error message. Message: Unspecified error(my translation since original is in Finnish) Line: 49 Column: 5 Code 0: [URL] Funny thing is both php file and output html file is 37 lines long...
I'm attempting to make a website, using flash with AS3. All of it's going pretty great, I'm somewhat tech savvy with the 3D rendering so alot of the concepts in flash are easy to pick up.
others.. not so much.Okay I don't know the proper setup in flash but I have one layer that has my background. one layer for my buttons. and another for my action script.
In my buttons layer I have a link to a pictures gallery, graphic design, a contact page and then back home button . The problem is, when I click the "contact" button, then click the home button, I can't click the contact button again. It won't work.
Still working on my slideshow. On the stage I have 4 buttons: Bio, Info, Contact and Back to Slideshow buttons. The first 3 buttons has the follow actions on a separate layer, both starting on frame 250, extends out to 370; 40 motion tween frames for each button.
stop(); bio_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,bio); function bio(event:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndPlay(251);}
I have a group of buttons that open a MC similar to opening a new window. Each "new window" has a close button that closes that window and goes back to the main window (the main timeline). The trouble is, the buttons to open the new window only work once. For example, if you click on "The Founders" the window opens then you click "close window" and "The Founders" button no longer works unless you refresh the page. I think it has something to do with the way I've coded the close button, but I'm not sure what exactly.[code]
When you click on it, the garage door opens and a tool chest emerges. The tool chest has the word close on top.When you click the close button it returns to the garage and the door closes. If you click on the garage door again nothing happens. This issue came about when I created a button out of the arrow on the road as a secondary button to open the garage door It has a broad hit area but doesn't overlap the garage door.The garage door plays the first part of an animation
garage.door.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openHandler);function openHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{ garage.play();} The close button on top of the tool chest plays the second half of the animation labeled

I have a presentation I created in Flash CS4 for work. Everything is working fine except for the stop button. The presentation has music that plays along with the movie and needs to be synced to it. When you click the stop button the first time, the movie stops and the music starts over. When you click it again, the music stops. I need it to work so that the stop button only has to be clicked once and both stop together. I should also mention that my boss is set on having the music and movie play automatically when you click the link to the presentation. Here is the code in ActionScript 3:
var music:Sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("sound.mp3")); var sc:SoundChannel = music.play(); var isPlaying:Boolean = true; var pos:Number = 0;
I have an FLVPlayer which plays a video and after the video is done playing, the REPLAY button shows up. Upon clicking the REPLAY button the movie starts over.. Everything works well, except, the REPLAY button only works once.. meaning, once the movie played once and REPLAY button is cilcked to play it again, after the movie is done playing for the 2nd time - the button doesn't appear..
import fl.video.*; import flash.display.MovieClip; var myVideo:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
It plays perfectly well in 'Publish Preview' and when you launch the HTML page offline. However it won't play online. First I published it in Flash 8, where I'd created it, uploaded the swf and the html. In Firefox it loaded a blank page which revealed on right click that there was a Flash movie there, but you couldn't see it or do anything. In IE it just stuck half way through loading. Then I resaved it in Flash CS3 and published it with AC_runactivecontent.js. Uploaded it to my site and the result was exactly the same. To check my syntax a friend uploaded it to his webspace, and put another swf on the same page using the same syntax. The new swf played, but mine didn't. The 'publish settings' for the two were the same. Again, if you look at the page offline both play. My friend made some changes to the FLA and published it successfully on his webspace. He suggested the file size may have been a problem: I had had some fairly large audio files in it and 'updated' them to smaller ones. The resulting swf was 6mb. We wondered if the old ones had been retaines somewhere, boosting the file size. The only other difference I can see between his version and mine is that there's a font I used which wasn't on his PC. His version has it as Arial (there is only one word in the whole thing). I took his version, deleted the sound files and reimported the smaller versions, which then published as a 3mb file. But now it doesn't play! Results in IE and FF exactly as above.
I have some proLoader code that works on one FLA file and I am trying to reuse the code on another file to pull in the exact same .swf in the same location and I am getting this error.. What do you reckon is going on?
I 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.
I have an FLVPlayer which plays a video and after the video is done playing, the REPLAY button shows up. Upon clicking the REPLAY button the movie starts over.. Everything works well, except, the REPLAY button only works once.. meaning, once the movie played once and REPLAY button is cilcked to play it again, after the movie is done playing for the 2nd time - the button doesn't appear... here's the code:

I am doing an animation of a system schematic I have had a weird thing come up with set interval.I have broken the animation down to three buttons a movie clip and a text field.When I call and clear the set interval from individual buttons the setInterval behaves correctly,but when i try and call and clear from one button with an if statement for a text field the setInterval will not clear.It also will not clear from the other button that is a set interval clear button that normally works.I have set the setInterval variable set to a number.Code Below and fla attached
i have an issue with a button that, when clicked should make a loader component with a flashpaper object unload its movie and then set that loader's visibility to false.the button works fine if clicked once, however if you click it again it doesn't seem to be doing anything.. i have a feeling it has something to do with the flashpaper object (which is still buggy as hell... try editing _xscale on one of those things in a function call and watch it dance) cannot figure out why the on (release) event can't be called twice.. do i need to do something like reset the button state or something?
I used as usual: this.menu_buttons_mc.menu_01_mc.menu_01_btn.onRele ase = function () { trace ("this.menu_buttons_mc.menu_01_mc.menu_01_btn.onRe lease CALLED");}; But problem ist : it works only for one btn. Why? Try click the second flake from above and see AS layer please. I think it would be easy for you but diffic. for me.
I've been developing a fairly simple presentation in CS4, AS3, OSX, which runs as a standalone projector.Everything was working for a while, but now for no apparent reason, any file I publish as a projector starts the Flash Player app, but the projector does not appear or play.Older versions that I had already published will play correctly, but if I re-publish them they do not work any more.
I've made a file in photoshop with layer. I brought it into flash. I created the movie and it plays but when I want to use the "test movie" feat. it does nothing. The graphics come up but no movement. I exported it as an .swf file but still no luck.
I created a textfield on stage, set it as dynamic, put a UIScrollBar next to it , with component inspector I set scrollTargetName to the instance name of the textfield then I wrote these actions:
var externalReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("loremIpsum.txt");var externalLoad:URLLoader = new URLLoader();externalLoad.load(externalReq);externalLoad.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, textReady);function textReady(event:Event):void { theText.text = event.target.data;}
Ot works on pc just fine. When I upload the swf and the text file to my godaddy linux hosting account the scroller doesn't work.example on server: [URL]the text you see displayed is only about a quarter of the file, I should be able to scroll through it.
I've created a Flash file that reads from several different xml files and displays them when requested. When I run the Flash player, (by pressing Command-Space within Flash), it all works flawlessly. But when I open it within a browser, only one of the xml files loads, the other two just spin away on the preloader.I have another Flash file that is doing the same thing. A click on a scrolling new list should take you to another web page. In Flash Player it works fine, but from a Browser nothing happens
