Actionscript 3 :: Movie Plays Itself When Call Any Even Unnamed Function

Apr 23, 2010

I actually don't need help, i just want to know your opinion about that weird Flash CS4 (AS3) behavior.there should be something i missed.

1) what happens: flash movie plays on any (even non-existent) function call between if(bytesLoaded==bytesTotal), and doesnot play on commented-out or blank line there

2) what should be seen instead: no action - i dont call any timeline functions so the movie shouldn't be playing.any warning or error? i dont know, flash is so *-nixy all the time in the way it handles errors.

3) where: in the.if(stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded==stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal)[code]

Actionscript 3.0 :: Movie To Loop - Movie Plays A Certain Number Of Times Then Plays The Opening Of A Screen Then Stops

Aug 30, 2011

I want my movie to loop. Would prefer an If/Else loop so that the movie plays a certain number of times then plays the opening of a screen then stops. This is a simple 4 screen ad I am doing for a school project. Can't get it to work. I tried containing my code in the proper loop syntax, didn't work. Then wrapping the loop in a function and calling that with a timer event, didn't work. My final solution was to call my whole movie in a timer event set to play once. Then calling the entire movie again in a second timer event set to play 20 times and set to start at an interval when the first movie ended. This did work but each time the movie plays thru function calls drop off making the movie degrade.

Javascript :: Call A Function At End Of Movie?

Feb 10, 2011

I want to display a Flash video in a popup window, and when the video has finished playing, close the window using a javascript function "closeIt":

<script>
function closeIt() {
alert("About to close...");

[code]....

How can I achieve this? I have imported a video into Flash (choosing "load external video with playback component"). This is in frame1. I thought that in the second frame I could make a call to ExternalInterface.call("closeIt") in the Actions window. I have tried this, but when I publish and view the flash movie in a web brower, I never see the javascript alert.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Call Function From A Loaded Movie?

Nov 23, 2010

I've been working on this extremely annoying problem for over 3 hours!

Alright the basics: A parent movie, and a loaded movie.

Inside the parent movie on a frame where the loaded movie is loaded, are two functions[code]...

I have multiple functions and multiple ways to call them because I'm trying atleast for ONE of them to work! I have twisted this code, changed the functions, and tried so many different ways to debug this problem! And finally, I am showing you my most simplified way of testing this problem.

Normally, when I load my parent movie and once it loads the loaded movie inside it, if I click the button- it should call one of my functions. Then I should see the traced message in my output. Instead- nothing happens.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Call A Movie Clip's Function From Outside Of It?

Jun 28, 2011

I'm trying to use a movie clip's function from a fellow movie clip 2 children up and I can't find the right code.  I've used:

MovieClip(datalist.getChildByName("content")).onpauseButton();
MovieClip(datalist.root.root.root).onpauseButton();
MovieClip(datalist.scrollb.content).onpauseButton();
MovieClip.(datalist.onpauseButton);
 
and none of them work.  The function is "onpauseButton" and it is inside of "content" which is inside of "scrollb" which is inside of "datalist." I'm trying to call it from datalist's neighboring movie clip so that it activates along with another function:

manualButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadFile_1);
function fl_ClickToLoadFile_1(event:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest("M-23 6263.pdf"), "_blank");// want to add the onpauseButton code here
}

I recall that there is a way to do it, I just can't find the right sequence.  Everything online is about how to call up to a function outside of the movie clip and not down to a function inside of one.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Coupling A Load Movie With Function Call?

Jul 21, 2011

in my flash, I have an interface which loads pictures through button clicks. During the "loading stage" of every picture, a preloader animation is displayed.Currently, after the swf starts, the first picture is loaded without said preloader animation. I wish to call the preloader function (see code example below) ONCE during startup of the swf, with the first picture load.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Rollover Call A Function That Changes Each Movie Clip?

Oct 16, 2005

Suppose I have three different movie clips. mc_A, mc_B, mc_C I want to have a rollover call a function that changes each movie clip. But I don't want to type it out like this:

Code:
mc_A.onRollOver = function() {
Explode.newExplosion(mc_A);
};
mc_B.onRollOver = function() {

[Code]...

Above you will see that I used this, it made sense to me, but this always refers to the main timeline (root in my case). So how do I pass the name of hte clip I am rolling over to a function?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Movie Clip OnRollOver Function Call?

Jul 23, 2007

I'm having an issue with a simple movieclip onRollOver event. Here's my code:

Code:
_root.mc_shutternav.mc_nav_8.onRollOver = over;
_root.mc_shutternav.mc_nav_8.onRollOut = out;
_root.mc_shutternav.mc_nav_8.onRelease = hit;

[code]....

However, with this setup the function hit() is called automatically every time I publish the movie. What's wrong with this? What's the difference between mc.onRelease = function; and mc.onRelease = function()?

Actionscript 3 :: Targeting Unnamed Timeline Instances?

Dec 31, 2011

Is there any way to control nested MovieClip instances placed on the timeline without naming them through the Properties panel? Are there any unique identifiers I can refer to?

Using instance names (like instance33, instance12, etc.) doesn't help since names are just properties, but how about references like sprite187_27 (as returned by trace(this) inside a MovieClip on the TimeLine)?

Flash :: Call Anonymous Function From ExternalInterface.call() Method?

Nov 4, 2010

I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.

Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()

AS:

ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);

JS:

var someVar = "Test";

This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
