Professional :: GotoAndStop('frame') Doesn't Stop?
Aug 29, 2011
I have been following Doug WInnie's tutorials on flash, and am up to ep17: http:[url]....He briefly mentions these functions at the end, but doesn't go into any detail: Add event listener and callback function for roll over of the
ballmyBall.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, ballOver);function ballOver(e:MouseEvent)myBall.gotoAndStop('glow');}[code]...
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.

I'm making a slideshow which pauses on each slide for 10 seconds, and there are also navigation buttons to go to each slide independently. I have this code (which I got off the interwebs) in a separate actions layer to pause the slideshow, independent of any button actions. This, for example, is an action on frame 2[code]...

I have a movie clip on the stage and have given it the instance name "team1". inside this movie clip there are two states. at frame1 it says one thing, then at frame 10 has an image. team1 stops at frame 1 and what i want to do is when the main time line reaches say frame 50, i want the team1 movie clip to gotoAndStop at frame 10, thus showing the image and not the text. i tried doing it by putting this on the main timeline at frame 50: team1.gotoAndStop("team");

I'm making an app in flash as3, but there is a bug in my code. (i guess)
-I can go from frame 1 --> frame 2
-I can go from frame 2 --> frame 3
If i try to go from, let's say frame 3 --> 2, I get this message:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.Why cant I go to a previous frame on my timeline?

When my animations are playing in the flashplayer and you rightclick and uncheck the play command only the animations in the main timeline stop playing. All the child animations continue to play. How do I make it so they all will stop playing when play is unchecked?
Is there a event listener that monitors if the movie has been stopped?

I don't know why but i've got fla files that I can't debug.
I'm able to launch debugger and the swf file is correctly run when I do it, but if for instance I add a trace in my code and add a breakpoint on it, it will appear in the output but the debugger doesn't stop on the breakpoint.
It's a pretty big project that uses a quite numbers of external swc libraries, home produced for the most, and I can't figure where could this bug come from. All the more if I create a simple fla file with a simple document class attached to it the debugger works perfectly.
So if anyone already encountered the problem or got an idea over any reason that could make the debugger to not stop on breakpoint,

I have this line on my code:
nav_mc.getChildByName("go" + i + "_mc").alpha = 0; // this works fine
but then if I add this:
nav_mc.getChildByName("go" + i + "_mc").gotoAndStop(2); // Doesn't work
nav_mc.go1_mc.gotoAndStop(2); // Works
nav_mv is a MC on stage, it's child is another mc whit 2 frames in use.why the gotoAndStop doesn't work with the getChildByName?this is the error I'm getting: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method gotoAndStop through a reference with static type flash.display: DisplayObject.

what happened in my flash document was, I created a button, "next_btn" with the following commands:
on(release){
//to remove all the splats
for (score=0;score<100;score++){[code]...
At this point, almost everything worked perfectly. Everything, but one thing. Apparently, the swapDepths command wasn't working. It was then that I thought maybe swapDepths only works on movie clips.And so I converted the button into a movie clip. I modified the instance names, etc, and almost everything worked. Everything, including swapDepths, but one thing: the gotoAndStop command.For some reason, when I tested the movie clip (containing a button) out, it removed the splat+score and finger_mc movie clips, as well as stoped the background music from playing. However, it did not go to the next scene and frame as specified by the gotoAndStop command. "s1a2" is the next scene, and "gameplays1a2" is its frame.

First of all, I would like to apologise for not knowing whether this code belongs to F5 or FMX Action Script. I'm that noobish, yup. Anyway, what happened in my flash document was, I created a button, "next_btn" with the following commands:

I 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.

In 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 {
gotoAndStop(10);

I have a .fla file that consists of four images that appear, pause a few seconds, and disappear in sequence. Each image has an associated button that links to a different url. There are also four navigation buttons, should someone want to jump to a particular one of the images. My problem is, the navigation buttons use a gotoAndStop action to take the user to a specific frame. After one of those buttons is clicked, the buttons that link to the urls no longer work. They all work fine until a gotoAndStop action is called. The navigation buttons continue to work.

I have a contact form for which I have a tween. That contact form consists of two keyframes, first the form, I tried putting the code stop(); in the first keyframe but it didn't stop. I then changed stop(); to _root.stop();, which didn't work either. I have to stop it because otherwise users would see a thank you note before they even enter their details. What can I do? Converting to movieclip didn't work either, besides it puts a funny character when I press AltGr

I want to make the player execute the code in the same frame. If I do a gotoAndStop to the same frame number, nothing happens because AS3 assumes since that you're already there, so nothing happens.

I've recently had a problem in my application's flow. I was sending an event from one of the frames of a movieclip and the issue was that it was being sent over and over and over when I wanted it to be sent only once. I assumed that placing a call to stop(); at the last frame of the clip would prevent it from looping. This was not the case however. After that I tried calling gotoAndStop(0); to reset the movieclip and stop it from looping. This did not work either. Then I went through my code to make sure nothing else was causing it to play.
I solved the problem by adding an extra frame to the end of the clip and calling gotoAndStop to that frame instead of 0. I've looked around the forums and google for information on this phenomenon but have only found cryptic answers. I was wondering if someone could explain the divine purpose that drives MovieClips to play regardless of whether they are told to stop or not when they get to frame 0 or 1.

I have an AS2 flash movie that has some labeled frames. On the first frame of a particular scene, I have some code that creates a menu of buttons that I construct from movie clips and vector graphics. The onRelease function of those buttons is assigned deep in some code thusly:
code: buttonMC.onRelease = function() {
trace('release, going to ' + this.sceneName);
gotoAndStop(this.sceneName);
};
When one of these buttons is clicked, the scene name reports correctly, but the movie goes to a frame 3 frames later than the targeted frame. I know this because I put trace actions on the subsequent frames like this: code: trace('2 after');

I am having a problem with the gotoAndStop function in my CS3 flash application. I have 3 frame on my timeline (keyframes). I click on a button of the first frame and pass to the frame 2 by having a listener on the button doing : gotoAndStop(2,"Scene 1"). Frame 1 and Frame 2 contains both a different Datagrid (as a MovieClip)
I have a problem appearing here. The datagrid from frame1 is still displayed under (kind of background) the datagrid from frame2. They are kind of superposed. The datagrid is the only element from frame 1 having this behavior. The buttons and text area are not displayed, following the normal behavior. Here is the part of my code doing that :

I have a website and it functions fine but I want to make a few alternate versions, exactly the same only they start on a different frame. I tried adding a gotoAndStop(9); into the actionscript on the first frame drag all clips when i drag single movie clip(which only contains event listeners and functions) but for some reason part of it goes to frame 5 and part of it does nothing. Only when I click the button that links back to frame 1 does frame 9 load.

I'm making a banner for a "client" and he wants me to make it like yahoo's news banner. I understand that they're using HTML5 and I haven't learned that yet. Anyways, I did a great job learning the banner in less than a month.
(I'll try to make this short) The banner has a 5sec pause and then it proceeds to the next frame. It also has 6 buttons that will direct the user to a specific banner that he/she wants to click. He wants the banner to stop and stay on a specific frame and not proceed further. I have achieved that, but here's the problem.
