I'm using jquery to drag popup control around the page ,every things work fine but when the page has flash movie the popup doesn't appear over flash also when set z-index to 100 .
is there any work around this issue???
$('.modalPopup').ready(function() {
$('.modalPopup').draggable({ zIndex: 2700 });
});
Here is what I am looking to do. Currently I have a drag and drop built in AS 3 that works perfectly fine, but I'm looking to add one more functionality. What I want to happen is when I drop the correct drag item on it's correct target piece (which is a movie clip) I want my target movie clip to go a head one frame.
So as an example I'm dragging a piece of paper onto a movie clip of of a waste basket. When I drop the piece of paper on it the waste basket, the waste basket movie clip moves a head one frame which shows a crumpled up piece of paper in it. Here is my current code for my drop eventlistener:
function dropMe(event:MouseEvent):void{ event.currentTarget.stopDrag(); if(event.currentTarget.hitTestObject(event.currentTarget._targetPiece )) { event.currentTarget.x = 950; event.currentTarget.y = 100; event.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragMe); event.currentTarget.buttonMode = false; } else { event.currentTarget.x = event.currentTarget._origX; event.currentTarget.y = event.currentTarget._origY; }}
Basically what I have is a 31 frame, frame-by-frame animation that plays(no stop() command at all currently) in a continuous loop on one "page" of a flash presentation. What I need to be able to do is set it up in actionscript 2.0 so that when a viewer has his mouse over the movie symbol and then clicks and drags to the right, the movie plays forward, click and drag to the left and it plays in reverse, and on release stops on the frame it is currently on.
I need it set up so that if someone is dragging it to the right and reverses direction, the frames are played in reverse from that point (frame) and vice versa and releasing the mouse button stops the movie on that frame: e.g. if the viewer is dragging right up to frame 20 then starts dragging to the left the animation will play backwards from frame 20 to frame 1 so long as the mouse button is held down) I can't use playback buttons, I have to set this up this way for a specific reason for a work project. I'm not even sure if I explained it correctly If I can set this up on the frame the symbol is nested in, fine. If it has to be done within the symbols' animation, fine. Doesn't matter really, the end result is what counts.
Is it possible to control a Flash movie from JS when you have no control over the source? I have decompiled the movie to see its inner workings, but I know nothing about Flash, so I'm mostly in the dark. I found this resource, Interaction with JavaScript, but it's not working for me (probably because I don't know what message to send to the movie).
View 1 RepliesThe movie was designed in several flash files, each has been combined into a single movie clip and then all the movie clips have been moved into the master document.
Each movie clip is on a single slide.
They play through and when a clip reached the end I have used the actionscript root.gotoAndPlay(x) where x is the slide number of the next clip in the sequence as such my timeline looks like this[code]...
I have to make a flash movie that would allow the user to control the framerate of the movie. Unfortunately I'm not that good with flash and I don't know how that could be done ..I thought about something like

}"
Im trying to do a drag and drop system where the user can drag a movie clip into an area. Although i would like to make it snap to a target instead of just sitting wherever it lands in the area. Problem Two:
The next thing i am trying to do is when the user has a movie clip on a target already, and trys to put another movie clip in that target area, it will replace the one thats in there and go back to its current position. Here is the script of what i have done so far:

I have some movie clips. i want to drag all clips when i drag single movie clip. Ex. I have movie clips "A1", "A2", "A3", "A4", "A5" . Randomly visible some of them. Suppose "A1", "A3", "A4" has visible. When i will drag "A1" movie clip all these "A3", "A4" also move with "A1".
View 6 Repliesi have load in a .swf and this .swf is make up of one drag object. When i load into my _level0, i can drag it but it seem then the drag is not smooth, instead it is lagging. Thus i went back to the indiviual files and try to drag on it and it was not lagging. ...why is it like that? All the files are still on my local disk.
View 4 RepliesI have a problem trying to get this to work, I'm doing a drag and drop controling all its drag and drop elements inside of two arrays. The function is this:
- If the dragging element is dropped in certain "drop" MCs, it takes a new position above it.
- If the dragging element is dropped anywhere else, it returns to its original position.
No problem when dragging, and no problem when it takes its new place above the drop MCs. But it gets an odd behavior when I add the 'else' lines in order to return it to its original position.
Code:
var ox:Number = drag1.x;
var oy:Number;
var drags:Array = new Array(10);
var drops:Array = new Array(5);

I have a layer that contains a movie clip, instance name wwr_mc, which has nineteen frames. I have figured out how to script a roll-over function to continously move from one frame to another by rolling over the prev, or next buttons, using this code:

var t:Timer=new Timer(250,0);var dir:int;

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

I am trying to implement a drag and drop function between a list control and a columnchart in Flex3. List items should, when dragged and dropped on the chart, be displayed raphically in the columnchart.Alas, dropping the listitems on the chart does not seem to result in a proper graph.Here my code till so far with regard to the drop part:
private function doDragDrop(event:DragEvent):void{
var ds:DragSource = event.dragSource;
var dropTarget:ChartBase=ChartBase(event.currentTarget);

View 1 RepliesI have a need to control one flash movie with another. For example: I have a graphical interface created in Flash AS3 which is simulating the control of machines on the ocean floor. I have 3D animations that will animate what is happening on the ocean floor when a control element is activated on the graphical interface. At the moment I have this happening all in one Flash player window that has been made to look like two windows. One which is the interface...one that is made to look like a small screen showing what looks like video coming in from a camera on the ocean floor.
What I need to be able to do is have the Control Screen as one window, and the animations to appear in another. In this way we can set up two monitors, have the control screen on one (computer monitor), the animations playing on the other (a large plasma connected to the same computer). The animations need to play within a flash shell and the control screen would need to play in a separate shell. So in essence I need to be able to double click on an .exe....two screen will activate showing one screen with buttons that port animations into the second screen which I have positions to play on the larger screen.
My task is to create a TV with flash graphics and show a short flash movie embedded on the screen. In the task there must be some buttons to switch on/off and pause and continue play after pause.
View 0 RepliesI'm pretty new to Flash and seem to be struggling with variable scope, events and where to put code within movieclips/main area etc. What I'm trying to do is produce a Flash movie that will allow the user to click on a tool from a selection, i.e. a circle, then click on another part of the screen to place the centre of the circle, with a second click to set the radius of the circle (an alternative would be a single click and drag to place the circle and drag it out to the desired radius.) Once the mouse if clicked a 2nd time, or the drag operation is completed, the circle will stay at the selected radius.
The code I'm using so far to test out the idea is below:
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
_root["item1"].onMouseMove=function(){
d = Math.sqrt(Math.abs(_xmouse-this._x)*Math.abs(_xmouse-this._x)+Math.abs(_ymouse-this._y)*Math.abs(_ymouse-this._y));
if(d<370){
this._width = d*2;
this._height = d*2;
}else{
this._width = 87;
this._height = 87;
}}}
This uses a simple circle movieclip, and the above code is placed in Frame 1 of the background as opposed to the movieclip itself. It resizes the circle movieclip ok, but I want to be able to control the resize with the mouse or with a single click/drag.

I am currently working on flash 8 tool.I wanted to know how to add control to a movie clip ,as in, how to play animations of an SWF file if the mouse is clicked anywhere on the movie clip
View 1 RepliesI have a product by IMTOO.com that converts AVI files to SWF files. I used it, and I also specified that I wanted the final file to be small. The final file plays OK in flashplayer 10, but the control bar is all black. You don't see any controls on it such as 'play', 'pause' and 'maximize'.Now there is a menu you can get by right-clicking on the movie. That gives you 'play' and 'pause', but not maximize.My question is, why is this happening. Why can't I see controls on the control bar, and why can't I maximize at all, even with the right-click menu?

I'm trying to control the timeline in my Flash movie. How I have my movie set up is:
1. The main timeline with AS, sound, some text that appears at the end of the movie (credits), and a movie clip of an entire scene with background. Inside the movieclip background, I have several other movie clips of parts of a duck animating, the background scene changing color, and a mask that opens and closes the scene (at the begining it opens and at the end it closes), and an object that I just added ( a ball). I gave the ball an instance name of ball_mc and all I want to do is to make that ball stop from looping the animation when the ball's movieclip is done playing.
I've tried to put a stop(); at the end of the timeline in the ball's movieclip, but that did not work. I'm missing something, but I'm totally clueless when it comes to ActionScript. I've only been working with Flash for about 6 months and haven't really gotten into AS a whole lot.
I have been doing some searching around some and have come up with import flash.display.MovieClip; and this.stop(); or this.gotoAndStop(); and/or gotoAndPlay(); and ball_mc stop(); I've tried using these codes, but I'm still missing something. Sometimes, I get an error that comes up and says that my varable isn't defined. I have no idea how to define a varable?what i need to do to control the timeline to make my movieclip ball_mc stop playing at the end of the ball's movieclip on the timeline?
how do i control the fps of a flash movie by an argument in a function..

just wondering what the best way to control the speed of a movie is. I have a movie clip that is text scrolling from right to left and it needs to go slower so that itīs readable. So I know I can just change the fps and/or make the motion tween a lot longer, but there must be a better way to do this with ac....?
View 3 Replieshow to drag a movie clip that is larger than the flash document and have it stop dragging at the edges of the movie clip? I have an 300x300 (just for example) flash movie. i have an image that is 500x650 placed a x/y of 0. i want people to be able to drag the large image so they can see the whole image, even though its larger than the movie dimensions. but i dont want it to keep dragging so say they drag it left 600 pixels, you see past the edges of the images to the background. i guess if you do the math, say at x/y = 0, they can only max drag it left 250 pixels but not farther left so you wont see past the edge of the image's right side. i have some diagrams to illustrate.

View 5 RepliesI am using an embedded flash movie in my web page. I would like to show some alerts on the page when the movie has played for x seconds, pause the movie while the user views and dismisses the alert and start playing the movie again after that (or the user can press the play button, not important). The important parts being - the app being able to find out if x secs worth of movie has played, pausing the movie then and showing an alert. Is this possible using a php/javascript code within the web page? Or will I have to do this within the flash movie itself?
