View 1 RepliesI am trying to jump from one scene called main to other named tutorial 1-6 here is my code to jump to tutorial 2 as an example
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("Tutorial2");
}
I've tried every variation that I can think of, no _root gotoAndStop and also putting in _root.gotoAndStop("Tutorial 2", 1);
i dont know if it makes a difference but the navigation buttons are on a movie clip which pops up over the main stage...if that makes sense, that flash file is huge i didnt want to attach the whole thing...
ive made a button in the scene 1 which i have managed to navigate to scene 2 but when i click the button it goes to scene 2 but displays everthing that is in scene 1 in scene 2, how can sort this out so upon the button click in scene 1 it goes to scene 2 and only display content in scene2.

I sent an email to pom regarding a tutorial that he wrote, but the email was bounced and he hasn't replied to my PM. I have followed both of pom's tutorials that involve experiments with perspective in Flash, but I have encountered a problem while attempting to duplicate a movie clip symbol in the second tutorial ([URL]). I have a single instance of the "ball" movie clip symbol appearing at random positions. However, I cannot seem to successfully duplicate the symbol instance at random positions using the loop that pom provided:

Is there a way to scrub audio on the timeline in Flash?
I'm trying to sync a soundtrack with animation and need certain sections to match up.
I'm making a working scrubber on a video, but having problems. The scrub itself it starting out in the middle of the loadbar. I've looked everywhere, trying to find out what is wrong with it.

I have built a catalog in flash that was orginally built in InDesign and exported but it has some small content that is hard to read for the elderly users viewing it and I would like to add a zoom feature or some type of magnifying glass.
View 1 RepliesI have an SWF movie (1375 frames) and created a progress bar (248px wide) with a slider that moves according to the movie progress. I'm doing that next way:Calculating the distance for the slider to be moved each frame (248 / 1375) On each ENTER_FRAME moving the slider for the calculated distance The problem is - the movie ends far before the slider reaches the end of the progress bar.
I'm thinking that the distance (Step 1) is is somehow ends floored by Flash and the actual distance it moves the slider is smaller than required. That's why the movie ends, but the timeline control just passed the 2/3 of its way. My question is - is there any solution for the problem? Or any other way to go, if it's a wrong one?

View 1 Repliesoriginal: I really just need to figure out how to center the pictures. here is what I did I have modified the tutorial that I finished to have a bigger stage for bigger pictures. Everything is working properly but the pictures are displayed on the left side, I want to have them centered in the stage for the images, after clicking on the thumbnails, plus my images are different sizes as well. ranging from 200x410 to 744x410 but all are the same height of 410. i will post up what I am talking about at the end. I believe it is something within either the action script or the xml coding that allows the position of the image to be differently? please help here is what i am talking about[URL] Continued: Here is my coding in action script:

I have a progress bar inside a repeater and therefore I will need to use getRepeaterItem to set it's progress as suggested in this question.
How can I do that such that the value of progress may be taken from repMonitor.currentItem.threatLevel?

what i am looking for is an FLV player type component (doesn't have to be an actual component) that will play SWFs. i need it to have all the same functionality (play, pause, scrub bar, etc...) it seems crazy that there isn't one out there i have even looked in the Exchange area and only seem to find ones that control FLVs or MOVs, not SWFs.
View 4 RepliesI am try to go from a main scene to a second scene in Flash. The code work just fine to take me there, but when the scene appears it seems that I lose focus with the scene and the actions that should runs doesn't until I click once on the screen. Now I am using a button to navigate from one scene to another. If I use a movieclip instead of a button then everything works just fine. In my second scene I am using the keyboard to control different things in the scene.
View 1 RepliesJust curious if anyone has ever discovered a way to scrub through frames one by one on the timeline? I'm not referring to action script nextFrame() kinda thing, I'm referring to the Flash editor only. Seems like a <control> + <right arrow> ought to do something like that but no luck.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to find out how to make a flash mp3 player. I have downloaded the source codes from the following website : [URL] (Slim version 0.2.3) and have made some minor modifications to fit my needs.
However, I am still clueless as to how to add a "scrub bar" (or progress bar) that would move as the file is playing and go to the location (minute) where i click on.
I want to scrub the timeline using a shortcut. What I mean is... I want to use something like the arrow keys to go forward and back and frame, each keypress taking me back and forth, without having to manually scrub. Hitting Enter and Enter again is not useful enough for what I'm seeking.

Just want to throw this out first that I am very new to ActionScript. I am trying to integrate Omniture tracking with a custom Flash player. Here is my dilema.I have this function which populates the "currentVideotime" variable with the current time in the video:
function videoStatus() { amountLoaded = ns.bytesLoaded / ns.bytesTotal; if(initialized == "yes"){ controllbar_mc.loadbar.loadprogress._xscale = amountLoaded * controlload_width; controllbar_mc.scrubhandle_mc._x = ns.time / duration *

I am creating an MP3 player, populated by xml. Everything works great, except the scrub bar. I can make the bar dragable, it is keeping the length etc fine, but when drag it, it goes back to its current position as opposed to where I want it to go. I can upload source file(s) if they are needed....

stop();
playlist = new XML();
playlist.ignoreWhite = true;
playlist.load("playlist.xml");

I've made a video scrubber for a couple of external F4Vs in my movie. I'm using 2 setIntervals for the scrub function: 1 to move my video playhead as the video plays, and 2 to seek to the correct video frame as the user drags the playhead.
This seems to be working ok. I wish it was a little bit more fluid in the scrub action, but I'll take what I can at this point.
But, one thing I'd like to work on is the audio hits during the video scrub. As the netstream seek is happening, the audio is hitting while I scrub. I'd like to temporarily kill the audio as I scrub, and then bring it back on at the MOUSE_UP.
I'm pretty sure that SoundMixer.stopAll(); will get rid of my audio, but what will make it come back?
Is it possible to have an instance of a movie clip symbol which has its own timeline "play" when you scrub the main timeline?You can do this with graphic symbols, but so far I've had no luck doing this with movie clips.See, I have a movie clip -- several actually -- with their own timelines which I want to place in the main timeline.When I scrub the main timeline I'd like to see them scrub as well, instead of simply seeing the first frame of the movie clip.I basically have to work blind like this.
What I'm trying to do is basically have several "slides" which are animated and then have a stop();. They'll sit there for a second and then the entire animation, or slide (movie clip) will move off the stage. I can't do this now. When I scrub the main timeline I can't tell what's happening in the movie clip. I can't tell when I can slide it off the stage.I tried to get around this by using graphic symbols with their own timeline, but adding a stop(); doesn't work in them.
I'm trying to play an FLV using the Netstream class - standard stuff, really using nothing more complex than things you can find in the help files. I've created a control panel with a bar you can use to click and drag and scrub through the video.
Exporting to Flash Player 9, it's working fine and I can scrub through the video, but only while the FLV is still loading. As soon as it hits 100% the scrubbing (using Netstream.seek()) becomes incredibly unresponsive, almost to the point of crashing the player.
I've killed all ENTER_FRAMES, removed all unnecessary listeners and nullified everything I can think of but something massively resource-intensive seems to be kicking in as soon as the load finishes.
Has anyone ever seen this? I've never come across this and can't find anything similar across assorted forums.
Code below but I don't think the mouse-move drag actions are the problem! Fine in the Flash CS4 IDE, broken in the browser.
// Drag
private function dragVideo(e:MouseEvent):void {
// Match the x position of the dragger to the x position of the mouse
videoControls.progressBar.dragger.x = videoControls.progressBar.barInner.mouseX;
