Professional :: Timeline With Scrubber - OnReleaseOutside Not Working Right
Aug 4, 2011
I am building a timeline with a scrubber. The handle on the scrubber is a movie clip, and it was all working fine. But I didn't like that when you clicked on it, the hand icon would be glued to the left hand side of the handle. So I changed to registration of the handle file so that it would be in the middle. Now my 'onReleaseOutside' command quit working. If I set the registration back, the release command works again.
Basically, if I drag the handle all the way to a side and have the mouse continue past the flash file and release it, it wont register it has been released until I move the mouse back over the flash, which also moves the scrubber handle to _x location of the mouse for where ever it entered the swf. Is there something obvious I am missing? Or do I have to deal with an un-centered handle?

I have "sq_mc" and "status_txt" on Stage.
I am using equivalent of onReleaseOutside which is: this.stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
It works fine. but when I open this SWF in another SWF it doesn't work.. !!
when I press mouse on sq_mc and release outside, counter stops.
but I want to stop the counter when I press mouse on sq_mc and release outside where my SWF which contains sq_mc is in another SWF in browser.
in simple ways... if path of SWF is "browser >> SWF" it works.
but if path is "browser >> SWF1 >> SWF2 >> SWF3" it wont works. in this SWF1 is preloader, SWF2 is SWF loaded in preloader, SWF3 is SWF which contains sq_mc)
Code below:
Code:
var excelClickTimer:Timer;
var i:int;
this.stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler); //counter

I've been looking for a tutorial to create a timeline scrubber (not animating specific movie clips, but actually a scrubber that can move along different keyframes of a timeline that has a series of images on it).I found a bunch of these (scrubber controlling specific movie clips): http:[url]....but nothing that allows you to just scrub back and forth on the whole timeline in the exported swf.

I am trying to make a scrubber that will allow me to scrub through the root time line which has streaming audio on it. I have created audio players before where the file was being streamed in from an external file, but have not dealt with it ever being on the timeline.
[Code]...
It works pretty well, however, there is a problem. When I scrub the bar, the audio stops playing. I am assuming it is related to the enterframe function, but I am not sure on how to correct the code.

I have a series of movies I'm creating that have streaming audio with animation synced to the audio. I was wondering if there is a component out there, or an FLA, that is a scrubber control bar like the one you see in Articulate Flash presentations, or video.I need it to control the main timeline.I have searched google for a while now and I can't seem to find one.

how to build a timeline scrubber that can scrub more than one scene.
1. Scene 1 had 20 frames
2. Scene 2 had 20 frames
3. On scene 1 I put the slider that scrub the timeline. The totalFrames; sum all the frame from all the scene.
4. When i scrub the slider to frame 21 error occurred saying that the slider couldn't be found. So i paste the slider in scene 2.
So how to continue scrub on scene 2? How to make a slider that can scrub all scene and move along showing the current frames?

All this code works properly, however when I include the part which controls the video resize metadata the scrubber stops working... (see the section between the ">>> <<<").
Code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.setBufferTime(2);
ns.onStatus = function(info) {

I am making a player that adds an advertisement before a video but don't want the user to be able to skip though the ad. I am using the progress component and an FLV Playback component for my player. I had tried to just hide the progress bar but it looks unbalanced. If anyone has an idea on how to make it so a user can not fast forward though the ad by dragging the scrubber that would be great.

Is there an easy way to use two event handlers together without repeating a function like this:
Code:
movieclip.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);

Firstly I feel this question is not a duplicate for : Easiest implementation of onReleaseOutside in AS3?
Now, the problem , I want to do some action when the mouse_down happened inside the stage, but the mouseup happened outside it. e.g check google finance charts, try dragging the change range divider and then make the drag such that your mouse exists the browser screen, and then do a mouse_up outside the browser, this will trigger some action inside the stage , i.e make the range stick to the position it was, when the mouse exited the window.)

I am in the learning process. Working with FlashCS5 and AS3. if the issue appears to be too simple for you. Placed a movieclip(mcassessJohn) on the main timeline and moved to the frame labelled "johnFeedback" in the movieclip timeline using the following actionscript code.

It's relatively easy to find a solution to the problem of the eluding "onReleaseOutside" event in Actionscript 3.0. What is more difficult, is catching the original target object in the last event handler of a classic drag/drop event. A common implementation, provided by our beloved senoculor, is this:

The ad on the bottom right of the screen (the one with lightning flashing) has an invisible button in its Flash file (CS5) linking to [URL]. This file is imported as SWF in Dreamweaver CS5.
The hyperlink works in Firefox, but not in Safari. Maybe it is just my computer.

I'd like to say this in the timeframe.
on (Press, ReleaseOutside) {}
Can I put it like this? The check syntax doesn't object, but does it work?
"my_button.onPress, onReleaseOutside = function()"

So I decided to make the jump today. I wanna learn how to use pure code only. I've been reading on how to structure the project and the packages and stuff.So I just wanna make sure I get this right.Let's say I still wanna make my project in Flash, basicaly I would only add my graphic elements (stuff I made in photoshop) to the library and export them for actionscript.Then only have one frame in the project, and script for that frame would probably be simple likeimport com.blablabla.init;And then call a init() function I would of wrote in that init class.Then within that init class would import all my other classes (would probably have something like visual classes, like navigation bar, background, etc and then structure classes with methods in them)And then everything just happens from within the init() function.

I'm streaming an external SWF into another movieclip, the external SWF has a timeline animation and sound (voice speech) as well on the timeline, it also has a preloader on it which it's set up that when 30% loaded is completed to start playing the animation.But when I run the main movieclip the streaming of the external SWF works fine for the animation but the sound does not play until the preloader is 100% completed.

I have two buttons at the bottom of my animation which should work all the way through the timeline. They work when you click on the chrome icon in the animation, but when you click on either Firefox or any of the other browser thumbnail buttons, the links stop working and nothing happens when you click them?

Today I found that flash had no option to jump to unassigned frames.
Say, I am working on frames numbered from 1 to 250. Now I need to jump to frame number 15000 and I found that I cannot jump to the frame number 15000 directly. I have to click in the Timelline and move the scroller right to its full extent, again click in the last frame visible in the time line and so on continue this until I reached the frame 15000.
Is there any easy way to jump to frame 15000 ??

I have a main timline with MCs in it. when the MC gets to the last frame, there's an onEnterFrame event telling the main timline to go back to frame 129 (labled "b1") and play.
I got the MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay("b1"); part added to my function to call the root. however, when I test the movie, it does everything correct except play. it goes to b1 and stops. here's my as3:
code: this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,goBack);
function goBack(e:Event):void {
MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay("b1");
}
why it won't play? I've tried using just the frame number and that won't help either. there's nothing else on the main timeline to stop the movie...

When creating a dropdown for a button, I noticed the dropdown will stop working if the button does not run the entire length of the timeline. i.e.: if you navigate to a page that is out of that button's "range" it will stop working unless reset by returning to the root page. Nesting the problematic button in a movie, however, solves this problem...

For some reason, I can't get any actionscript on the timeline to work. Even something as simple as stop(); on frame 1 of the movie has no effect. I don't get compiler errors either. Now I have noticed that in Edit-Preferences-Actionscript-Actionscript 3 Settings, the Source Path, Library Path and External Library Path are all empty.
