Jan 8, 2011
Am gonna create an encyclopedia program, consist many of Chapter. I have difficulties about controlling external swf inside my Main swf. This is my Main.as in Actionscript 3
public class utama extends MovieClip {
var loader:Loader;
var urlReq:URLRequest;[code]........
Am using eksternal page as a Chapter, and A Chapter consist of many Pages (it using Scene)
For an example :
Chapter 1 --> Page 1 it will be represented as hal1.swf-->Scene 1
Chapter 1 --> Page 2 it will be represented as hal1.swf-->Scene 2
Am gonna create an encyclopedia program, consist many of Chapter. I have difficulties about **controlling external swf inside my Main swf**. This is my Main.as in Actionscript 3
Code: public class utama extends MovieClip { var loader:Loader;
My main flash file is setup with a scroll pane component. The scroll pane is loading an external swf. This external swf has a button that when pressed I want to load another external swf into the scroll pane in the main flash file. How do I make the button functional? Is it using sprites? If so, could someone direct me to a tutorial?
I'm having a bit of time getting this to work. Setup like this: Main mov: Nav1 is clicked and loads in external swf. In the swf that was just loaded there is button to call another external swf on the main movie's timeline. I'm trying make a "lightbox" effect. Where you click on the external swf and the screen darkens and a swf is loaded on top of it. Above the loaded swf. Of course on a new layer.
PHP Code: This is handling the swfs that get loaded in EXTERNAL SWF LOADER _root.page_mc.preloader_mc._visible = false; _root.page_mc.preloaderText_txt._visible = false; var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); var myListener:Object = new Object(); mcLoader.addListener(myListener); [Code] .....
At the moment I am working on a flash website. There is a main swf with the menu, which loads external swfs as subpages. These external swfs contain some html text. Now I want to have a link inside this html text to another subpage.
[Code]....
But this doesn´t work. It seems "page_2" or "page_3" gets never dispatched.
which work perfectly fine. Now due some reason i had to place the navigation bar in the external movie clip , in external.swf Using the same script how can i control the textBox animation which is on the main.swf??
I have a scrollPane on my stage, and I have a movieClip inside of it with a bunch of buttons. When you click on one of the buttons, I need it to gotoAndPlay a frame label on the main timeline. So far I cannot get this to work.
I make a website. First I have a frame with a movieclip, where my entire page is within.Inside of that is where all of my pages is in different frames, and in each of these frames there are other movieclips with content. My example:Top level /Entire site/My pages, in different frames /Movies/Pictures/About/Etc./Content (inside the "Movies") /Info about movies/Movie one/Movie two/Etc./My problem is as easy as this: I will link from the "My pages" level, to the first frame in "Content" (info about movies)If i just link to the, "Movies" frame, I can't get from "Movie One" to Info about movies by pressing the button, wich lies on the "My pages" Level.
I'm doing a project that I have to use scenes in, I have a sound object that i want to be able to control in all scenes. I set up global variables for the sound object and a boolean to check if the sounds currently playing like this : PHP Code: _global.sound1= new Sound(); _global.sound1.attachSound("song"); _global.soundplaying = 0;
In each scene I have two buttons a stop and a play button, Heres my code for play: PHP Code: if(!_global.soundplaying){ _global.sound1.start(); _global.soundplaying = 1; }
And stop: PHP Code: _global.stewielaugh.stop(); _global.soundplaying = 0; Doesn't seem to work, if I press play in scene one and go to scene 2 and then return to scene one the sound can be played again on top of the already playing sound object.
Is it possible to make a call from inside a MC to change a frame on the main stage (IE: scene 1 frame 2) rather than just frames within the MC? I've already tried going gotoAndStop("1,2") but that seemed to do jack.
In flash CS5 I want to go back to the main time line, from inside a movie clip button, so when i click the the movie clip it goes to another frame on the main time line..
ive made a simple game for a uni project, when you get game over a movieclip comes up and inside the movie clip there is a button to restart the game. how to i code the button inside the movieclip to gotoAndPlay to frame 1 on the main timeline?
I'm working on a lot of different flash applications Most of those applications are visual and involves the main stage.I started oop a while ago and i got to a point that %99.9 percent of my code is extracted to different classes.There is one thing that repeat on a regular basis on all of my apps, passing the Stage variable to the different classes....It's working great but it doesnt feel right that i need to pass the main stage as a variable between the different classes,is there a better way to access the stage from external classes ? can i make the main stage a static property and access itwithin all the objects in the application ?
I'm having some issues referencing variables in the main movie.On the 1st frame of the main movie I have: var testvar="testing123";On the main movie I have a movieclip with an onRelease event handler that is defined with:loadMovie("Slideshow.swf",1);Slidwshow.swf contains:trace("From the main movie: " + _parent.testvar);however the trace statement prints "undefined" instead of "testing123"
I have several buttons, that link to several scenes, containing swf files. Using the loadmovie command I can get these swf's playing on-screen. That's good.
-How can I control where they appear on my document (I'd guess these require some x or y values, but not sure how this is done) as they all appear in the top left-hand corner. - When I mouse over another button (link to scene/swf) how can I remove the previous swf from the page, then load the new swf -as they all appear in the same spot/all over each other? Is this an unload movie command?
I was hoping to counter this problem by using different scenes (no luck there) and all I really need to do is remove the previously loaded swf, when the new one is loaded.
I`m working on a main swf (Main.swf). There are many seites with many themes. On each site (Frames 1,2,3,.....25) There`s a button to get to an external .swf. If I`m in the external .swf, there is a button too, to get back (back) to the mainmovie. Now what I wanted to do is, go back from the external .swf to the Main.swf to its Frame Nr.5, when i press the button "back". With that Code below I can only get to the mainmovie 1.Frame (its Home).
//Connection to LEVEL1 back.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,mouseClick3 ); function mouseClick3(event:MouseEvent):void {
i found a script that unloads my external swf inside a movieclip when i click a button on my main screen. this script causes the external flash inside my moviclip to close and unload when i click the close button, which is what i want!. the only pain in the butt is it preloads the external flash when you go the flash site and i dont want that. i only want the script to close the external swf. if anyone is curious book.swf is the swf in the movieclip i am trying to close.[code]
I have a main swf that loads 2 external swfs. I click on button to see content of external swf #1 and see stuff. I do something that causes external swf to show other stuff (i.e. not at beginning state)
In the main swf I click on button to see content of external swf #2. External swf #1 content is made invisible and I see content of external swf stuff. NOW, if I click on button to take me back to see external swf #1, I see it's content in current state. I want to force it to start over again at frame #1 which will reset content.
However, no matter what I try, I can't seem to control which frame to go to in external swf using gotoAndplay.
I have an external swf (is is an intro, nade in aftereffects)..and it loads in the main timeline of the site with a preloader. Everything is ok, but, when the intro in done plating. It stops and I want do see de site. I mean from the last frame of the external swf, I want to jump to the second frame of the main timeline.
Here is the script: stop(); var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("intro.swf"); var loader:Loader = new Loader(); function fileLoaded(event:Event):void{ addChild(loader); [Code] .....
I have a button that when pressed goes to the next frame of a external swf file loaded into a movie clip. When the last frame of the external swf is reached, I want the button to go to the next frame of the main timeline (which in turn loads another external swf and the process repeats itself over again).
I assume I have to use an if/then statement, but what exactly is the if clause?
Not sure if I'm in the right place, I apologize in advance if so. I'm somewhat proficient with html, but fairly new to flash, using cs4pro, as3. Here's my dilemma. Converting an existing html/css site to flash. Flash is main site now but a few html pages are still linked, a buy page and a form page, a few others. I can get the all the external html pages to link to a frame in the flash movie, and I can get the flash to link with all external urls.
My problem comes when I move to a frame outside the main timeline. The movie is lets say 393 frames. All symbols/content are on seperate layers, and so is the action. Once the full movie ends, I have several frames past that where I have basically created frames for additional "pages" and created anchors for those frames, new layes for content, new layers for anchor (labeled) and new layers for a stop(); on each frame, I extended the pertinant graphic frames out to 410 from the original movie.
Now when the movies runs the buttons appear at about frame 115, so in the action layer I coded a keyframe and then added frames of it out to frame 410 or so: I have attached the .fla Now I'm lost here. When you navigate the site, from home lets say to an external link (button) like members, the html member page opens, and if you click home button, back to flash frame, and all works, all buttons, on the home frame 393. But if you go to any of the external htmls, and then go back to any other frame like frame 401 the about page, and all the rest 402 403, etc, the page appears properly, but then none of the links function. the site URL is [URL]there is a flash intro too, swf in question is actually at[URL]
when a external swf file gets loaded into main swf file, i need to detect while playing external file reach to end so that i can unload that file and move to another frame on root of main file. I am not getting how to identify external swf play reach to end so that i can unload swf and jump to root specific frame of main swf.
I have a function with codes (variables, events, and events) that perform one after another. However, after the last code performs the main function ends. I want the codes inside this function to repeat itself after the last of the code perform.
How do I get those codes to do that?
Here is an example of what I have: see attach code.
I have continuous stated but of at the moment, the logo does not continue. I am guessing that I need maybe to put this in a loop. If this is so, I need an example as to how do this.
The second question, I have these codes on one frame (one scene). I want to create other pages or scene and transfer all of the codes to the other scenes. How do I do this? What is an example of the code that I would use to transfer the main function to the other scenes? I guess I could copy all of the codes to the other scenes but I am sure there has to be a faster way.
I have a main timeline that has 27 different scenes. I have a movie clip that is an "on call" navigation menu for the main timeline. I can call the menu once, and it will go to the first place I want it to go. However, I cannot seem to figure out how to get it to go away to be able to call it again. I get the "must be child of caller" error. how to get rid of it each time I use it?
