I have a series of MCs in my root timeline. On each frame in the root, I am simply running 'stop();' to allow the MC within the frame to play through all the way. Once the timeline within the MC reaches the last frame, I have the following AS to go back to the root and play the next frame (each frame is labelled):

i've recently installed Wowza media server 2 locally, currently only for testing purposes.everything works fine, except of accurate seeking functionality - or in other words advancing frame-by-frame .when i use VLC to play my video file i have no problems advancing frame-by-frame. however, when i use the 'seek()' function to move the playhead a fraction of a second, its seems to move only to the next key frame (meaning that only once every few mouse clicks the playhead advances dramatically).
View 1 RepliesI have about 2 minutes of real life footage.
I need to put this in a "flash container" and make it advance frame by frame every time the UP key is pressed.
The faster the UP key is pressed, the faster the film should advance.
Accelleration and decelleration should seem "natural" (not bumpy and sudden).
is there an action script code that enables the timeline to automatically enter a frame label on entering a certain frame.

View 2 RepliesI have some buttons on the frame. I also have an event listener that is waiting for the user to press the Tab key to advance to the next frame. Is there any way, using ActionScript 3, to have the Flash player not recognize the buttons, because when I'm testing it, using the Tab key, it goes through the progression moving from one button to another, and then finally it advances to the next frame where I want it to go directly to the next frame and bypass the buttons. The simplest way is not to have the buttons, but I need them.
View 3 RepliesI have a button on frame 1 that, when pressed advances to frame 2. On frame 2, there is an animated symbol that starts playing right as you get to the frame. I want this to play once, and then advane to frame 3, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it? Please help, all it does now is loop continuously on frame 2, and I can't figure out how to advance to frame 3.

I am needing to create a preloader that advances a 10 frame animation every 10% loaded. So there will be a percentage indicator (dynamic text) and a short animation as the load bar (10 frames). The animation is of tape winding into a tape measure, and when it's fully inside the loading is complete and timeline moves onto next frame. I have been able to do this with AS2, using a combination of (stop) and (play) commands whenever the next 10% was loaded.

If I have an input text field on frame 1 and I enter text in it then I have a button that say sends me to frame 2. On frame 2 I have a button which sends me back to frame 1. Why when I got back to frame 1 is my text not shown?Why does an input text field go blank when leaving the frame? How can I make it so when i enter text on frame 1 and then go to frame 2 and then back to frame 1 the text i entered is still there?

This type of navigation, while functional, is not really codusive to what I'm trying to accomplish.

I have been tasked with creating a "PowerPoint-style" presentation using Flash CS4 and I am just learning AS3. I would just use a PPT to Flash conversion utility but they want more elaborate text and image effects and better embedded video handling. Also, it seems like using the Flash Slide presentation option in Flash CS4 limits the kind of effects I can do. How to navigate the presentation sequentially (back and forth) using the arrow keys to jump to the next or previous frame label.
Here's the code I have in the first frame of timeline:

I'm attempting to advance a movie by time not by frame rate so, on frame 34 I have
Code:
function playNext() {

with a scene1 label at frame 45, but the movie does not stop at 34, it continues to frame 45 plays to 55, where their is a

Lets say I am working on some basic shooting game that involves lots of moving enemies. The enemies all come from one class that extends movieclip.
I want the enemies to move 10px downwards every frame. At the moment I know of two ways of doing this:
The first is to run a single onEnterFrame function on the main timeline, this function loops through all of the enemies on the screen calling a function in the enemy class that contains "x+=10".
The second is to put the onEnterFrame function inside the constructor function of the enemy class that would then contain the "x+=10".
Both give the same result but is one less work for the computer than the other? The first has a big loop that accesses all of the enemies, the second has an "onEnterFrame" running for each of the enemies.
explain why the lines drawn between the circles in the code below are not aligned with the centre of the circles? It seems the x and y properties of the circles are not up to date with their actual positions but how can this be?
import flash.display.Sprite
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

I have a flash site that has a presentation page it has a menu of two buttons (1) to take you to a slide show and (2) that takes you to the gallery. These are the only two buttons that seem to work in control test movie, I get no errors. The only button that is connected is the slideshow button (I haven't done the gallery yet). This button takes you to frame two. Where I have the main website. It has its own menu that spans across the entire website which is 25 frames.
Each frame represents a new page. I have mini menus at frames 3, 5, and ten. That are supposed to just advance the user to correct frame labels and stop. The only buttons that work are the ones in the first frames. The rollovers appear to work on all the pages when I advance the movie using the [ . ] key but I get no trace statement which means that it is not being acknowledged, all my buttons are named properly I believe so here is the code as well, all is in frame one:
stop();
//handle events for buttons...
Gallery.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Location.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Guest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Lodging.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);

When setting up a Stage3D's Context3D for rendering, is it expensive / bad practice to switch between Program3D's in an Event.ENTER_FRAME cycle?I don't have an example at hand, but I'm curious to know if there's such situations where this alternation between programs would be used and if the frame-rate would suffer considerably.

View 3 RepliesSo I've about hundred of map tiles and each title has some object which does some stuff. And one of things it should do is to update text (a time after which you need to do something) in text field. How should i do it better - with enter frame event and on each enter frame update it or set up a timer object which on each second would update the text in text field?

I have external swfs that loads in a container on a main swf. When I press a button on the main swf, I would like to load a specific frame from an external swf.Here is what I have so far:
[code]...
I am trying to play a simple movie clip when the playhead gets to a frame label called "home". The moveclip is called "playRollClick". I am trying to write this in as3.
The code below is what I've come up with so far, but it doesn't seem to work.
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,playRollClick);
function playRollClick(event:Event) {
rollClick_mc.play();
}
Im loading an external SWF in to the main SWF at frame 1.
When that animation is done I want it to go to the next frame of the root SWF .
In AS2 this might be done like this:
_parent.nextFrame();
or
_root.nextFrame();
or
_level0.nextFrame();
How would I do the same in AS3 ?
