View 1 RepliesI'm trying to go to the next frame in the main timeline from a class with no luck.
I have a movieclip called winner_mc that is created in the document class.
winner_mc is linked to the Winner class.
The Winner class creates a movieclip called nextlevel_mc which is linked to the Nextlevel class.
Then when I click on the nextlevel_mc movieclip I want to go to the next frame on the main timeline.
I tried this for the Nextlevel class:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class Nextlevel extends MovieClip {

Hi! Is it good to have a document class and still some other frames in the mainTimeline with some code inside?
View 1 RepliesI'm using Flash Professional cs5/AS3 I'll try and describe this the best I can. I'm new to ActionScript. So, in my timeline I have a var on a frame that represents "lives" and i have some code in the timeline that takes down the number of lives depending on certain events, which all works great.
so, now i wanted to make a constructor class that I could reuse for a bunch of movie clip objects and I only want these objects to be able to move if the lives variable is greater than certain number. So now, building my constructor class for these objects i just wanted put an if statement that is looking to see if the lives are greater than a certain number, which if it is then should make these objects do what i want...But, when i run the project I get "1120: Access of undefined property lives."
lives is the var I made obviously like I said, and it works fine being referenced everyone else except when I make a new .as file for these objects then try and reference it. I get the same error when I try and establish "lives" in the main project class too. I'm not sure where I should put this var or how I can make it so i can reference it from an object class. I'm not really sure how to word or describe my issue which has made it hard to search for a tutorial.
How do I link a button thats embedded in frame 2 (music page timeline) to a frame in the main timeline ( frame 3= biography page)? Both pages are on the same scene with link buttons embedded in each page independent timeline.

I have two frames in the timeline of my flash file. On frame 1 there is a movie clip. How can I access this movie clip with code located in frame 2?
It doesn't matter whether the mc is already placed on the stage or is added dynamically from the Library - I just need to access the alpha property. I can provide a more detailed description of my file if needed.
I simply want to assign a variable to the current frame of the main timeline (not movieclip timeline) I already know about _currentframe and it doesn't help in this case.
View 4 RepliesI have a multidimensional array on the main timeline. Its name is myInst. I need to access this array from this class to build a scrolling list of swfs which the path to the swfs is in the myInst array. I have not included the entire code/class because the issue is somewhere in this part. The error is 1009, cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. This fla is not going to be the root fla, it is going to be external, so the use of root probably will not work, but I tried it anyway, to no avail.. for any help.

import flash.display.MovieClip;

View 14 RepliesIs there a way to get an instance reference to the document class to call a method of it from the stage's timeline?I see that here's a possible solution: using a singletonOther solution I though of is using stage.getChildAt( 0 ) but it's not very nice.Is there an 'official' instance reference? because the document class is obviously instantiated at startup, but is that instance accessible in any way without having to use a custom solution like the ones mentioned?

I have a MovieClip in my library called WindowHider. The timeline for WindowHider contains a frame-by-frame animation that is made up of individual PNG images that I imported. Each of the 10 or so PNG images sits on it's own frame within WindowHider.I can successfully create an instance of WindowHider within my Document class and add it to the display list.
Question: Is it possible to access the smoothing property of the PNG images within WindowHider's timeline, from the Document class? The WindowHider class is animated and rotates, thus the pixels show and the image is jagged. I know if I could access the smoothing property it would solve the issue.

I have a timeline that has some label frames at the very end of the timeline. During the timeline a user will hit a button on a frame and will jump to one of the label frames. On the label frame is another button that when clicked - returns the user to the previous frame. How do I make the movie return to frame 1 - without a button - but before it reaches the label frames? In other words, by simply reaching a certain frame in the movie, I want the timeline to go back to frame 1.
View 3 RepliesTried to access a function in the document class by simply calling it. For exampe, the code in my frame is:
Code: Select allinitButtons();
And in my document class I have the function:
Code:

}
But it gives me an error. Even tried to change private to public the same.
The following class works fine when calling it through document properties panel.
How can I access the same by writing code (to call the class) in first frame of my project?

gotoAndStop(parent."framename");
