I have tested with frame number it works, it doesn't with label name. Is it possible ? In main.as:
public function gotoTab1(target:MouseEvent) {
gotoAndStop(1);
}[code]....
of course I give tab2 as label name to the frame at position 5.no error shows up.
Is it possible to change a frame label within a gotoAndStop('label') with the parameters in a function?I'm playing around with updating code as I learn more and more techniques, and at the moment the code is a basic click-a-button to select the object shape, and on press the button disappears:
// Change the object into a circle.
circle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(circle_btn,circle);});
// Change the object into a square.
square_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(square_btn,square);});
[code]....
However I can't/don't seem to know how to change a frame label through function parameters, or if what I'm trying to do is even possible.Also to note, while I'm all ears for any more efficient ways of doing what I'm trying to do, I would still like to know how/if you can change frame labels through function parmeters.
Is there a way to move to next (not specified) label frame without indicating a specific name?I have a portfolio movie clip with images, using the AS3 Tween Class.I have a "next" button that hopefully will trigger the tween to NEXT label.
here is my code:
var myLabels:Array = ["print", "printA", "printB", "printC", "printD", "printE", "printF"];
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickNextSection);

i have a button instance, within a movie clip within a scene. i can not get the gotoAndStop on a frame label within the scene to work. I CAN however get the gotoAndPlay code to work (which defeats the purpose).

I have this script in Scene 4:
stop();
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
contact_bttn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bClick);
function bClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop("getInfo");
}
I have a frame labeled getInfo in Scene 4. When I test scene it works fine. When I test movie I get this:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label getInfo not found in scene Scene 4.

I have a video in a frame that corresponds with the label "eight". i have a button on the timeline with the following code. i've tried it both gotoAndStop and gotoAndPlay and it doesn't work.
on (press) {
gotoAndStop(eight);
}
I have a .swf menu with 20 or so links. Each link opens up a new html page that in turn embeds the same swf menu. All I want is to simply have the html tell the swf to gotoAndStop a specific frame label that really just 'highlights' that particular button, so the user knows where they are. that's it... used to be able to do this with fsCommand, or so i thought.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to use this if statement with a frame label instead of a frame number. I believe that _currentframe is looking for a number only. Is there a different command that looks at frame labels instead of frame numbers?
View 1 Repliesis it possible to find the frame number of frame label with AS if a button is rolled over, the timeline jumps to a label - which plays a set of 3D rendered frames to 'raise' and element, once a user rolls out of the 'button' area the button is meant to 'lower' - which can be done by simply playing backwards to the previous label.

I have a bunch of labels on a long timeline, but want to create some calculations based on the number of frames between labels.
I would like to use a conditional to determine if my location is before or after a frame.However, to make it portable I would like to base it on the label name.e.g.
if (_currentframe < "p2")
however, "p2" is the label of a frame.So how do I get the frame number from the frame label? I am making something that when it detects a click, jumps to the next point in the movie. These P1,P2, etc. will be distributed through the movie.
'if jump detected'{
if (_currentframe < "p2"){
gotoAndPlay("p2");
} ELSE IF (_currentframe < "p3") {
gotoAndPlay("p3");
I guess the problem with this is what if the one of the movies isn't as long and doesn't have a "p4" location for example.Probably I can handle this case when I am setting up the variables that contain the frame number of "p2", "p3", etc... checking agains the max number of frames.
I would like to use a conditional to determine if my location is before or after a frame.However, to make it portable I would like to base it on the label name.if (_currentframe < "p2")owever, "p2" is the label of a frame.o how do I get the frame number from the frame label?I am making something that when it detects a click, jumps to the next point in the movie.

Does this sound like the best idea?
'if jump detected'{
if (_currentframe < "p2"){

I need a movie to load when a "gotoandstop(x)" instruction, sends me to a certain x frame. This x frame has a movieclip inside, to load this event:
Code:
onClipEvent(load)
{
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("loadingclip", 2);[code].......
This event should show me the file.swf file, instantly when i get to that frame.But it doesnt show anything and it does if i put the code on a button on(release). Why ? Is it the "gotoandstop()" instruction?
Is there an event listener that will allow me to access either the frame number or frame label of a playing SWF loaded with the new Loader statement? I need to trigger the play() function of another external SWF, as well as other functions.
View 9 RepliesIs it possible to link to a specific part of my flash movie from an html page. Is there any way to link to a frame number or label? The site is html based, but the intro/home page is flash. I don't want users to have to see the intro every time they go back to the home page from somewhere else within the site. Is there something that I can append to my link on my html page to make it go to a specific frame in the swf?

View 1 RepliesI 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");

im trying to get a movieclip to go to a certain frame when its health is at a certain number. Ive coded it so that if the health is 14, it will go to the first frame, and if the health is 13, it will go to the second frame using this code, and if the box touches it, its health will decrease by 1.
[Code]...
but before the box even touches the movieclip, the movieclip is already on the second frame.
Had a look for this but nothing seemed clear at the moment I have a script which will only play if the frame is the currentFrameLabel or rewind. However in order for it not to go one frame too far I need to be able to stop it on the frame before the change not on the change. Or am I just going about this the wrong way?
