I have a problem regarding flash, actionscript3 and movieclips.
I have 2 videos(inserted as movieclips, each one in different frames 100 and 102). I want to gotoAndPlay the one on frame 102, but the other in frame 100 always starts at the same time. How do I play just the specific movieclip of frame 102?
P.S. If I order to reproduce the movieclip on 100, it starts as it should.
I want to jump to a specific frame in the swf I load using the Loader class. As it is now it goes directly to frame1 in the file, which I dont really want it to do. I'm using Flash CS4
View 2 RepliesI have been researching this for hours and cannot seem to find an answer anywhere. Right now I am linking one flash file or .swf file within my main flash site using a button.So in my main flash site, I connect to this .swf file by using...
on(release){
loadMovie ("MDsite2.swf", _level0);
}
This works perfect but the .swf file starts at the first frame. Is it possible to a jump to specific frame within that .swf file so it doesn't start on the first frame?
i see a code back in my old days of flash pro 8.0of gotoAndPlay() and stop(),etc;now its as3.0when i tried my old codes b4 with as3.0 it doesnt work..well my button is named start_btn.. and all my buttons is on the same frame as it is..but i wanted for it jump to the next frame where most of the actions of my flash takes place..can some1 guide me thru this?im jst new to cs4..and lots of things has changed when i jumpd from pro 8.0 to cs4.
View 2 RepliesThis time, my goal is, I want to jump to a specific frame, when a button is clicked.
For example,
When I push button1, jump to frame 55,
When I push button2, jump to frame 65..
Buttons are designed in one frame, at the beginning, together...
My problem is :
A.swf : 5 frame (ie, page1, page2, page3, page4, page5)
B.swf : 2 frame (ie, page6, page7)
When click on back button in the page6(B.swf), wish to jump back to page5(A.swf) instead of page1 as normally
Script using :
back_btn.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("A.swf",0);
};
B.swf jump to A.swf, but go to frame 5 instead of frame 1 in A.swf.
What should i do for the script to achieve what i mentioned above?
basically i have a container which I am loading in swfs, when you click on a specific button I want the loaded swf to jump to a specific frame.
I am using actionscript 2 at the moment this is the code on my buttons...
on (release) {
container.loadMovie("lindy_black_swatch.swf");
}
Just when i think I have learned something and can make something work I find out I know less than nothing. its either laugh or tear my hair out (thinks there must be a lot of bald actionscripters) LOL
this is the code i came up with and is not working. I want this on a frame on main timeline and

hours = nyeveDate.getHours();

I have many buttons in a few movie files, i need to select a few of these buttons and store them in an array so i use....
var twocolourbuttons:Array = ["mybutton1", "mybutton23", "mybutton34"];
I then need to show a movie file if the button that has been clicked on is in the array. so something like...
if e.target.name is in the array show the movie twocolor.visible = true;
i then need to go to a certain frame of the movie, depending upon where the button is found in the array. So if the button is at position three of the array, i need to jump to keyframe 3 of my movie.
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.
View 1 RepliesI am making an online portfolio and I have created the following scenes:homeaboutontactright now, I have three movie clips on the home screen that I have created into buttons.
on (press) {
go to Scene 2, frame 25 ?????????????????????
}
What I would like to do is after someone clicks on the button, it should then jump to another scene's specific frame number. So for example when you press the "about" button, the playhead goes to the "about" scene to 25th frame. Same thing for each button
Basically I'm making a demonstration of a puzzle for class.
Each MovieClip is a bit of the puzzle, and users can move forward a frame or back a frame using the keyboard using the on(keyPress) function.
When the puzzle is complete, I want text to appear (or another MovieClip, ideally) letting the user know they've completed it.
So I'd want the text to appear when the following conditions are fulfilled:
round_mc is at frame 53
square_mc is at frame 2
triangle_mc is at frame 19
rectangle_mc is at frame 80
Imagine that you have a lots and lots of the same library item on stage - movieclips - and you want each of them to be clickable. Normally, you would iterate through each of these and register an event listener on MouseEvent.CLICK for each one. It seems to me that if there are large quantities of these items this could be quite inefficient - on memory mostly - to have all these event listeners. I'm trying to figure out if there's a more "central" way to do this, where your main document class just registers once with some kind of central dispatcher using a custom event? Any time ANY of the movieclips are clicked, that fires this custom event and you can just query the event to figure out which clip was clicked.
Each movieclip that is clickable extends an AS class through its linkage, and when clicked, dispatches a custom event. If I'm using the IDE to put a lot of objects on stage, and these objects have linkages to their own custom classes, I don't want to ALSO have to go into the main document class and have it iterate through these objects to register event listeners on each one. I don't really want the document class to have that much knowledge about these objects (loose coupling). I'd rather the objects "communicate" through this mediator and not really worry about knowing more about each other than what you can access through the custom event.
I want to jump to a specific spot in my XML file - when I click a button, it should jump to picture number 10.

I need to create a script that will jump to a certain frame in the scene when a movie cilp reaches its last frame. Putting a goto... within the MC itself doesn't work. I assume that I need to create a listener of some sort....I haven't been able to find what I need in any documentation (and I'm even been looking through AS dictionaries going back to Flash 4).

I built a button in one of the movie clips in my project,
when I release this button, it goes to the 41st frame of the main timeline and continue to play until the frame 70 which has got a stop; command. till here everything's just OK. But I want this button to do something more though I don't know whether it's possible or not.
I want this button to go and play the frame number 41 in the main timeline, and then after it stopped at the frame 70 , then jump to frame 73.

View 3 RepliesBasically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first.

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to create a movie, that when a correct word is entered, it goes to a specified frame. The code below words fine but I need to make an addition to it,
on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
if (inputtext eq "word1") { gotoAndStop("frame1");
} else if (inputtext eq "word2") {gotoAndStop("frame2");[code]....
I was hoping to add extra words that would go to the same frame. I know I ca do this by�
if (inputtext eq "word1") { gotoAndStop("frame1");
} else if (inputtext eq "word3") {gotoAndStop("frame1");
but was wondering if there is an easier way, something along the lines of�
if (inputtext eq "word1", "word2", "word3") { gotoAndStop("frame1");
I have an animation where I want to play a movie clip and then play another movie clip from the library (selecting randomly from a group of movie clips). I couldn't figure out how to get this to work, so I tried to play the first clip, and when it gets to its last frame jump to a random clip which is already on the time line. The AS is attached.
Clearly I'm missing something critical here.
how to accomplish my current task. I have an .fla with 32 frames in it, an open frame, a close frame, and a bank of 30 frames in between. I want to set up some AS so that once the user clicks a "Next" button on the first frame, it randomly jumps to another one of the frames within the bank of 30. Then, when they get to that frame and view the contents, and click next, they'll randomly jump to another one of the remaining frames. This will only happen for 20 frames, after the 20th viewed frame, I want the "Next" button to take them to the final slide in the series. The purpose being so that each time a user views the program, it's never the same (well not likely ever the same) - so they'll all see 20 different frames in a different order.
I'm guessing I could do this with arrays, and the math.random method, some if/else statements.
