All I want to do is stop on a frame then click on an object and progress to another frame. MX was simple to perform this, with cs4 it seems to be a mine field any sugestions.

View 4 RepliesI have four movie clips (.f4v) in 4 frames in a movie with watch buttons.. This movie has them been imported into a main movie container that has next and previous buttons. However if i play a movie then hit next frame, the movie continues to play in the background. The code below shows one of the actionscripts for a movie clip and then the main actionscript in the main movie.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI wrote the following code to have flash stop on frame 1 and wait for the click on the start button. I will use the animation in Connect Pro and without a Start button, the audio starts before the video. Here is the code and following is the error I get in the Compiler when I play the animation. The button does have the instance name play_btn :
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
} stop();
The error I get is:
Location: Scene=Scene1, layer=actions, frame=1, line 3
Description: The class or interface 'MouseEvent' could not be loaded.
Source: Function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent);void
I have a animation in my loader_mc that I want to start at one frame and play to it then stop then when you click on it again I want it to play from a certain point. But what is happening is that it will initially do everything it is supposed to but than mess up after the initial 2 clicks. Check out the onRelease event and you will see what I am currently trying to do. [URL]
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash CS4 with AS3. I'm building a website for a friend the problem I have. When a user clicks on a button I want it to play a movie clip then stop at a specfic frame. I want all the buttons to play the same movieclip but go to a different frame.
The current actionscript I am using is located on frame 1 is:
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, homebuttonClicked);
function homebuttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop(0)
}about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutbuttonClicked);
function aboutbuttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("aboutme")
[Code] .....
This allows me to navigate to the right frame but does not play for obvious reasons, if I use the gotoAndPlay function its carries on playing to the end of the movie.
i am doing a simple project in which i have 2 frames in the main time line and a movieclip in the first frame and a button.i have something else in the second frame.when i click the button the movieclip should start after it ends the timeline should move to second frame and stop.
View 7 RepliesI was certain that this type of problem would have been previously discussed here or in a tutorial. I have looked quite a bit and could not find anything that puts all the pieces of my puzzle together.As the movie is playing (looping), I would like the movie to stop at the current frame whenever I click and hold the mouse down within the area of the container. Furthermore, I would like to be able to scrub the movie backward if I drag my mouse to the left within the container and as I reach the left end of the container, the movie is at the first frame. And similarly, I would like to scrub forward if I drag to the right within the container and as I reach the right end of the container, the movie is at the last frame. On top of this daunting task, I would like the movie to resume playing from wherever I have released the mouse.
Here is a file that I have started and I am pretty much at a loss as to where to go now. I know it has something to do with where the mouse is relative to either side of the container, but...how does one get it to work?Basically, I would like to emulate the functionality of the QuickTime Player - the one where you can grab the slider and drag it left or right to scrub in either direction and then upon release of the slider it resumes playing.I do not understand the media components in MX 2004, maybe this type of thing is "easy" to program in to one of those modules?
I have a Start button on the title screen. I want the music to stop when you click on the start button. Also, I want for another music to start when you go to the next part of the animation and to stop when you click on another button.
View 5 RepliesI am trying to link a button to go to a certain part of the timeline. As I am aware all you have to do is go to the button, actions > code snippets > timeline navigation > click to go to frame & play, and then type in the frame number in your code of which frame you want it to go to. I did all of this and it does nothing.

When I tried doing this, I labelled one frame within the myBall movie clip 'normal' and the next one 'glow' and I added a filter glow to the ball on the glow frame.When I play it back, and mouse over the ball it flickers really quickly between glowing and not glowing, and when I mouse out it returns to normal and stops, but I thought it should stop on the glow frame as well.

View 7 RepliesI understand that in order to make it consume less CPU cycles flash player forces the player to only execute at 2fps (or some other ridiculously low amount) when the swf is no longer in focus (or even if it's still "in focus" but not being rendered to the screen by virtue of being in a section of the browser window that's scrolled offscreen.) Is there any possible way to change this? I have a 3D engine that needs to keep the FR up.
View 7 RepliesIn cs5.5, I have a frame with a movie clip on it. When a user clicks a button, I want the movie clip to stop and the user to be directed to another frame. It is correctly redirecting to a different frame, however, the movie clip is still on the stage and playing. How can I modify the following code to make it not just go to a different frame, but also stop the movie clip that is on that frame from playing?
btn_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame(event:MouseEvent):void {

how to make an object appear on click from library. however it never appears where i want it to on stage. very frustrating. i go to change the x-y cordinates of the object in the library to match exactly with where i have an existing object on the stage but it doesnt seem to corelate with the scene? instead it is way off course.
secondly what is the code for clicking an object on the stage to show a masked or hidden layer? or something like that.
when i get either of the above sorted i might actually get some headway LOl
I have is Adobe fl CS4. I succussfully created a scene with all correct layers including a start button action script. No errors works great. Now my next challenge is, how do I cause a word to apear? I created some objects that I want to select and cause a word to appear and color to change, once I hover over the object. It is like the same method when you create a 'start button.' Do I create another sub scene in the action script command?
View 32 Replies[URL]. Link to my problem .swf file. I am trying to get the bullet to fly in smoothly and ease to a stop. Also there appears to be some audio trying to play, but I have no audio in the library, or the stage! I can't get this animation to play smoothly at all. This was originally exported from an After Effects project (CS4) and there are only 8 layers - 1 for the bullet, 4 for button text, 1 of the main title, 1 of the dude standing (I'm hopefully going to have the title fly in from behind him) 1 of the bg and other text together. Why this animation won't play right? (I'm using Flash CS4 to do this).
View 2 RepliesI'm a young girl who recently discovered flash cs3 (I started yesterday) I found this tutorial about how to make a flying bird. I did as the tutorial said, I just made a butterfly instead of a bird. Now I made a flower and I want the butterfly to land on the flower. The tutorial only showed me how to make the bird/butterfly fly through the scene and not how to stop it while I still see it in the scene. I figured out how to stop the motion tween but then the butterfly dissappeared from the flash file after it stopped and I also figured out how to make it land on the flower but it keeps moving its wings Now I need help to make it stop moving the wings while it's still visible. I hope my explanation is understandable. As I said I just started with this program so I don't know how to explain all the different things.
I tried to upload the file on imageshack but it seems like it doesn't support this kind of file, or I'm saving it wrong.

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.

View 1 RepliesI am creating a decision tree in flash (where someone answers questions which eventually gets them to a preferable conclusion). I have been using code snippets to link the different frames. I have created an animation that I would like to play when the user gets to the conclusion (I will use the 'click to go to frame and play' code snippet) but how can I turn the animation file into a single frame or object but still function as a animation. I tried saving as a SWF and drag into my project so it could appear as a object but it only plays in another window.
