In Scene 1, after pressing a button user goes to Scene 2. After coming back from that to Scene 1, All movie clips in other layers are null.
This is my code that goes to Scene 1:
MovieClip(this.root).gotoAndStop(1, "Scene 1");WHY?
No..not that type of parenting ;DOK,I have a main scene, then sitting in the root scene I have 2 movie clips.1)centro2)fotoIn the first movie "centro" there is a menu btnI want this menu btn to call up mclarge + its frame (1) thats housed 3 levels inside the foto mc in root.
Main scene - (1) centro (banner which houses menu btn)
(2) foto_mc
- Main_boy_mc (<---works if menu btn houses in here)

I've been following a flash tutorial, It's a complicated piece. You'll have to look at it to see for yourselves.My main problem is that I would like to try to add buttons to the scrolling 'menu' movie clips, that would enable me to go to a new scene. I've tried the '_parent.gotoAndPlay(2)' etc, but due to my very basic knowledge of action-scripting I can't get it to work.
View 10 Repliesjust wanted to know is there a way to pause all the movie clips except 1 in a scene. Coz i want a scene where everything is playing and when an action occurs to a movie clip, it continues playing but pauses the rest halfway through their animations.......
View 5 RepliesI have 5 movie clips on one scene layered on top of each other. One of them is the navigation which has 4 buttons. the other 4 layers are my content pages (MCs) which fade in and fade out along the timeline.
I want the buttoms to control the content pages.. when "option 1" is selected I would like the current page to start playing (where i have it fading out along its timeline) and the other page to come in!
I have no idea how to do this.... do you use IF commands?? if buttonpress etc
How do i pass variable from scene 1 to a movie clip? my movie clip name is over_mc. within the movie clips and scene 1 each have a textbox. i want to pass from the scene 1 textbox to the movie clip textbox. and display on the movie clip textbox.

I have 6 scenes, the first scene has 5 pictures that i converted to buttons. each button goes to a different scene to play the appropriate movie clip. right now it shows up with scene 1, then i click on the button and it goes to the appropriate movie clip but after it finishes playing it just goes to the next clip on the next scene, then after it is finished it goes to the next clip on the next scene and so on. i would like to know is there some way i can make the movie clips return to scene 1 after they finish playing?
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with loading SWF and access to their elements by class linkage in Adobe AIR 2.6 for Android.
Problem: I have two different .swf files:
file1.swf (in which MovieClip with name1 has class linkage 'mainScreen')
file2.swf (in which MovieClip with name2 has class linkage 'mainScreen')
They have some action script code, which I need to import in my application domain. Files downloading great. After downloading they are in differen app domains But when I'm getting elements by class linkage and add them to stage - only element which was loaded second is shown. Looks like second movieclip with same class linkage replaces the first one.
For this I'm using such approach:
how can I load two different elements SWF files, which have elements with same class linkage, or explain why I can not do this? When elements have different class linkages - all OK. But!!! It is working for web, but for air it don't want to work.

I'm trying to create a user customisable touch screen interface - in which people can include their own button styles (currently created as movie clips). I have a working XML file that names the style / external swf name for each button but I don't seem to be able to then duplicate that movie clip for say use in 10 separate buttons. When I try this only the last one created is displayed. I can of course separately load the file 10 times but that is yuk.
I hope to be able to position the timeline through n states in each loaded clip independently and also have one click handler that can return me an identifier of which was clicked - I know how to loop/create dynamic instance names.
<edit> I can do this successfully from the library - just not as an external file load - where the MC won't be in the library at all.
Code:
//Initialize variable to hold target data
var targetClip:MovieClip;
//********* Add a "MovieClip" variable that will reference the root of the loaded clip:**********

I was wondering about the flexability of loading movies into a movie clip. Currently, I am well able to load one movie into a movie "loader" clip, but thought maybe there is a way to load additional movie clips into that same "loader" clip, as i am starting to accumulate several different graphics that i need to have be inside movie clips so that i can make them change colors on the same frame when needed.
i shot from the hip and tried this code, but didnt have any luck:
mc_LCD_loader.attachMovie("hilight", "g", 1), ("header", "X", 1); mc_LCD_loader.g._x = 0; mc_LCD_loader.g._y = 1000;
mc_LCD_loader.X._x = 0; mc_LCD_loader.X._y = 1000;

What I'm trying to do is to load a swf, and access a particular scene within that movie. But it seems to have problems getting to that scene (a scene named 'Title'). I have this code on the timeline, and the button has an instance name 'button3'.
button3.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("03_diagrams.swf", 1);
gotoAndPlay("Title", 1);
}
Does this code look okay?
load a movie at a particular scene rather than it launching into the first scene automatically? Or is this impossible?

I have 16 movie clips on separeted layer on frame one on the timeline and I want to start one after another with a delay of one second between each of them. I feel like it should be easy, but I didn't find the solution so far. Anybody with a real life exemple, a tutorial or what method to use?
View 3 Replieshave a movie and want to load external swf files into the middle section. my navigation allows users to access from 10 buttons. i can load the swfs either thru reateEmptyMovieClip, or loadmovieNum. but i can't seem to control the levels. that is previous movies can be seen underneath the new loaded movie... i need to clear previous movie clip before loading the next, i think??here is createEmptyMovieClip code.

SO what I have here is a simple menu with 5 buttons. I have event listeners attatched to each button that loads an external swf each time each button is clicked. Im trying to wrap my head around a solution to unloading the movie clips. as it is each swf is just getting loaded on top of the other one when the button is clicked.
a sample of a button code is:
var hList = hardwareDisplay;hardware_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hListDisplay);function hListDisplay(event:MouseEvent):void{ hList = new

I am trying to load data into 3 different movie clips. (content_mc, content2_mc and content3_mc). Each movieclip will get one image and two bits of text (picture, who and bios <== instance names)
Those 3 movieclips are inside of another movieclip, contentHold. That movieclip is setup to scroll vertically ( I was able to do that myself ).
SO my problem is I have that I can't figure out how to load the data into the 3 movieclips as I want to.
I have attached my .fla and .xml file from the project.
I'm new to AS but have some coding background (php, sql, vba) and some basic (non-AS) Flash skills.I want to create a bar chart a bit like this: http:[url].....Really would like some sample code if poss. This is my thinking:
1) Each section of the bar chart will be a movie clip, mc_2, mc_3 etc.
2) There will be an array with Qty, Type, Desc and Name of movie clip (e.g. mc_3).
3) There is a generic bar chart "block" movie clip in the library ("Block")
4) So I plan to loop through the array, attachMovie for each iteration, resize the Movie proportionate to Qty, and colour it by Type.
Problem is: (1) I don't know the right functions to use; (2) Are mc_2, mc_3 INSTANCES of my generic movieclip, "Block" ? (3) should the code sit on the timeline? (4) do i need an empty movie clip to attach the library item to?
Code:
Pseudo code:
n=length of array
for (var i:Number = 0; i < n; i++) {[code]....
The final thing would be a bit more complex with frames etc, but generating the movies would be a start.
The site is structured with all content inside entireSite, with two further movie clips nested myMenu, which contains all the button movieclips (rollovers etc) and AS to navigate the site and another entitled allPages which contains all the content.
on entrance to the site i want a grid of images appears which is scrollable using scroll pane. I have managed to achieve this just on a standalone .fla following this tutorial with the code
[URL]
scrollPane.source = myContent;
scrollPane.setSize(556, 300);
with the code sitting on the main timeline
now i have structired my site properly im having difficulty getting it to load correctly. I have the correct instance names for scrollpane and the linkage for the movie clip i want to load. im just wondering that now my scrollpane is nested in entireSite then allPages that the code will not recognise it?
How do i make it point to it? Also, as i move between different pages of the site more content will require a scrollPane, can i just use different instance names to do this?
Or should i go about removing the movieclip in scrollpane and adding a new one?
I am trying to perform the following:
1. Create a series of movie clips on the stage
2. Give each one a specific name (i.e. movieClip1_mc)
3. Load an image into each one
4. Add three unique listeners to them (MOUSE_OVER, MOUSE_OFF and CLICK)
Afterwards I want to create one single function that will handle all the above boxes depending on which box is clicked.
Obviously the 1st part is simple enough and I have no problem there. Without relying on the "multiple movie clip" parts, I can easily handle the next three - just can't get it to work when working with multiple dynamic movie clips. Where I get stuck will always be giving each one a name and then moving forward. One big issue I continuously face is creating one dynamic function that will handle based on which movie clip the user interacts with.
My project has about 30 movie clips in the library. With an action that comes up every few seconds, I'd like to randomly load one of those 30 clips onto the stage and have it play until it's done.
BUT - once a movie clip is already out, I don't want it to reset or come out again. I'd like the next action to randomly call out one of the remaining 29 clips.
Once each movie clip is done, I need some action to make it go back to the "available" list so that it can be called out again.
I'm guessing that I need to use attachMovie to call out the movie clips, and an array (maybe two) to make sure that I only get one instance of each movie clip. But after lots of searching and various dead ends, I'm just not finding exactly what is needed.
I'm having an issue with placing images loaded from an XML file in placeholders within movie clip instances on the stage. It'll load an image onto stage, but only one image. I'm kinda at a loss at the moment.
Code:
import com.greensock.TweenLite;
import com.greensock.easing.Back;
import com.greensock.loading.*;
import com.greensock.loading.display.*;
import com.greensock.events.LoaderEvent;

I am currently trying to load a movie clip in the main SWF. Got that done.Then call and replace the first movie clip with another, got that done too.This is for a menu i am making, I am not too great in action script. I am working in AS2.Problem is after I call the second external movie clip into the main SWF, it all stops working.Is there a way I set this up that no matter what it keeps loading and unloading the external movie clips? This is what I have so far.[code]This starts with the "king_menu.swf" already loaded, i have it unload it and load "dqueen_menu.swf" to the call point named "load_king".I am guessing I need to have a universal call point for all my external movies to load and work in a random chain.
View 10 RepliesI have a banner that I've created and i'm trying to dynamically load in an image so that I can display it on the banner. However I'm having a very difficult time with it. I've found tutorials explaining how to load an image into flash and show it on the display but they are all creating an instance where as I have instances of the MC already set in tweens and on the stage.I tried attempting code such as:
Code:
this.Img_holder_mc.Load("myImage.jpg");
but this isn't working.
