Professional :: ColorTransform Messing Up Timeline Animation?
Sep 8, 2010
I dynamically set a color using this function in colortransform.
function setColor(o:DisplayObject,color:uint):void
{
var myColor:ColorTransform = o.transform.colorTransform;[code]...........
I then have a short timeline animation in Flash CS5 where the height grows just a little bit, and it does not grow.It grows in the preview, but not after compile.If i comment out this color transform function, the height animates correctly.

I'm having problems with many files losing their assets from the timeline after a save and reopening the file in Mac OS X Snow Leopard. This is happens quite often now and there seems to be no pattern to it. For example, I will open an existing Flash animation complete with sound and artwork, make changes to the animation timing, test the SWF and everything looks good, then save. After reopening the exact same file, there will be audio that was on the timeline will be an empty frame. In addition, there is art work that was swapped out or updated to a character and the symbols becomes empty after reopening.

How do I make it so that the movie clip animations play when I'm editing the root timeline?

I have a pretty long timeline animation to be edited; in CS4 editing the file was no problem, you could scroll through the frames without problems, using CS5 and trying to do the same the app freezes for several seconds and then reacts and performs the last click you did - honestly I can definitely no edit the animation with CS5.Is there any sort of option which may cause this strange/slow behavior?

When I play my animation in the Flash working file, the animation stops at the end of the timeline, as it should. But when I test the movie, or export it to any movie format, it will play an instance of a movie clip symbol that I used within the animation. There are no extra frames in the timeline beyond what should be considered the last frame. Is there a setting or something I have overlooked that might cause that instance of the symbol to play at the end of the animation, without appearing in the main timeline?

I am looking to explode an image backwards. Example, I have an image and at frame 1, Alpha is zero. At frame 20, the image is at Alpha 100%. From frame zero to 20, I want to have an exploded view come together by the time it reaches frame 20. I am reading this on web, and I don't have the 'Insert - timeline effects - explode' on my file menu. Is this a plugin that I have to install? This is the site I am reading. [URL]

I would like to be able to change the color of more than one movie clip in the same layer in the same frame. Basically I have place two different movie clips with defined instances,i.e. body and shoulder onto the canvas in one frame on the timeline.
I have created three different buttons (red_btn, blue_btn, and yellow_btn) to use to change the color of say the body or shoulder. I would use red and blue to change the body and say yellow and green to change the shoulders. These are also on the same layer and same frame on the timeline as the movie clips.
The problem I am having is how would I declare the two movies or variables to change independantly? Would I need to place one movie clip on one layer and then place the other on a different layer so that when I press the button I want i.e. the red button, it only changes the body and not the shoulders.
Here is my actionscript that I am using to change the color of the clip(s)
[Code].....
body here is my declared variable wich is the body of a shirt that is one movie clip. When you place both clips on the timeline ontop of each other, you basically get a shirt with different color shoulders and body.
way to delcare the variables in one actionsript.

I'm looking for an animation timeline or video/audio timeline ui or maybe like a gantt chart thing that can be adjustable. It's basically draggable icons in tracks and bars that you can adjust the size of.

ok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.

I have a certain set of motion twains that I've successfuly completed, they constantly loop right now (default), and is saved in the SWF file.I'd like to take that finished looping animation, and insert it within another animation (a) that can be played with a play button, and stopped/resetted with a stop button.How do I insert the completed looping animation into the main animation? And is there something special I have to do in the actionscript of the start and stop buttons so that the "inner" looping animation will start and stop with the "outer" main animation?

On a horizontal bar, text scrolls from left to right, continuously. The text is a fixed string of city names, and I've made it so that it loops nicely. This horizontal bar with scrolling text is part of a vertical animation, scrolling the bar in and out of view. The vertical tween starts after two seconds. When the vertical tween starts, the horizontal animation has started as well. At the beginning and end of the vertical tween, the horizontal tween starts over. I want it to continu.

I download a flash template to take apart and play around with to make sure i still know my way around the software. Everything was going great until I discovered there are part of it that I can not find. The animation are not in the timeline or anywhere else I've looked. When I scrub through it they aren't there, but when I preview the movie (F12) they are always there. I managed to delete the pictures in those particular animations, but can not edit or find anything else.
Here is the link to the file... [URL]

I need to do a good animation for school to pass my subject and I have done several animations. I thought maybe I do an animation with different choices. Basically you have the "Home" Screen and then you chose one and an animation is been played. Then when I press another button, a different animations is being played.

I have an animation that is timeline based. The file size is around 900kb for the entire project, as it has numerous images at different stages.
How does flash determine when to start playing the movie? Is it based on a percentage of loaded size or does it load assets as it moves along?

I'm using Flash 4 and AS2;I've composed the code such that my MC (called hole) will turn slowly upon entering the first frame:
var hole:MovieClip;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("rotator_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
rotator_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
hole._rotation += 1;
};
Then, on frame 55 I have:
rotator_mc.removeMovieClip();
to stop the clip. After that, I animated "hole" on the timeline to shrink... but when I play my movie, the timeline animation doesn't happen.

Is it possible to test only a section of animation in a timeline? I'm trying to refine the last bit of animation at the end, and would prefer not to watch it all from the beginning again.

I'm not able to create a working seek bar (or progress bar or timeline bar) to give the viewer complete control for where they want to play an animation. The animation is a .fla file, which moves frame-by-frame with motion tweens). There are 4446 total frames (at 12 fps), so I'd like the viewer to be able to skip ahead or back as they desire. The instructions I've found so far all have to do with FLV files instead of FLA.I've tried the following Actionscript, but I get errors(which are also listed below). As the seek bar object, I'm using the UIScrollBar (with a horizontal direction).[code]I'm more than willing to try a different Actionscript.

I am new to Flash and am still trying to come to grips with AS3. I want to pause an animation twice in the same timeline. I have applied the code given in the adobe article 'Using ActionScript to pause and loop the timeline in Flash' [URL].
this.stop();
var timelinePause:Timer = new Timer(2000, 1);
timelinePause.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, timerHandler);
timelinePause.start();function timerHandler(evt:Object):void {
this.play();
}
This works well when used once in the timeline but I get the following errors when applying it twice
1151: A conflict exists with definition timelinePause in namespace internal.
1021: Duplicate function definition.
Warning: 3596: Duplicate variable definition.
What I need to change to make it work twice.

I've got a multi-element character animated in its own timeline, within its own symbol --- but it's not showing up in the main timeline, or on the stage when I exit the symbol and go back to the Main movie view. How do I get the symbol's animation to integrate into the main scene?

I was just looking through a tutorial, and saw something interesting and I wanted to find out if it is ok to do. Sometimes, I think it will be a lot easier performing animations in standard flash using the timeline. However, sometimes I need to use code to do things like get a user input. Is it possible to do an animation in flash on the timeline and then convert this to as3 code which I could then work on to do further things like get user input?

I add to stage movie clip name body_mc the body_mc contians inside of it two movie clips mc_leg_left and mc_leg_right each of the last two movieclips has animtion in the time line with first frame with stop();.in the first frame of the main time line i add the code
body_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(e:MouseEvent=null):void
{[code]........
you will see the mc_leg_left is really going to alpha 0.5 but its animation is stoped while the other child movieclip mc_leg_right its animation is working but if you leave the comment the two legs are animating,is it a BUG in fash player or what?

I have an issue with how Macs play timeline animation slower than PC. On the PC the animation plays right and syncs correctly with the music.
I have a tree that grows, when it finished an axe chops it. The tree finishes and the axe starts chopping the tree at exactly 30 seconds into the song which is exactly how it is meant to happen.
Syncs right on PC but on Mac, the tree finishes and the axe starts chopping at 50 seconds into the song.
During the tree animation, I also have some other swf movies loading in the background so that it is preloaded and ready to go when required because I am trying to prevent any delays or the chance of a preloader from appearing when these swf needs to start playing.
What is causing the Mac to have a slower animation. I do notice in general than Macs take longer to play an animation than PC on a browser.
Is this just natural or do you think the Mac and PC difference caused here is due to me loading swf movies into the background?
What are my options to make the sync right. I can not make the animation actionscript based, so I am stuck with timeline based animation.
I think music streaming would be the best solution here. Right now, I am triggering the music as an event, but I am worried of the stuttering effect using streaming music, while my animation plays and swfs are loading in the background and the viewer has a slow PC.

I have an animated movie clip (a man walking). I have created a tween with that clip, but when he stops at frame 30, I want the animated movie clip to stop, so it doesn't look like he's walking on the spot.

im wanting to have a scroller appear at the bottom of my site that moves content along based on the animation i have in the timeline.so for example. Lets say that I have a circleMC on frame 1 thats positioned on the left side of the screen and the end frame of the animation is frame 10 with the circleMC on the right side of the screen. tweened/animated to go from frame 1 to frame 10 .instead of a play button that plays that simple animation. i want to make a simple scroller that allows the user to scroll it through so that he/she can see the animation as fast/slow as they want it....meaning that when the scroll is activated, essentially the timeline will be going back n forth between the ten frames.

I had to build a preloader for a fairly large swf and of course the design of the preloader is a bit complex - it's got to have two looping timeline animations running in it at the same time.I did my best to simplify these as much as possible, but they involve filters and pngs and... ugh.Needless to say, while flash is trying to do all the work of loading the movie AND running these two timelines over and over, it stutters. A lot. And looks bad, and all I can say is... well yeah.A preloader by definition has to be simple, doesn't it?

This is exactly what I want but I want it to happen automatically and without action script. How can I do this as a time line animation?
