Flash :: Get Button In Movieclip To Go To Another Frame Inside The Same Movie Clip
Dec 16, 2011
I have several website pages set up on different frames inside the content (which is a movieclip) of the home page - which is on frame 1 of the main timeline. The content movieclip name is contentMc.
My About page is at frame 10. There is a button on this page (called btnAbout_contactpg) that I want to make jump to my Contact page (frame 50) - all of which is nested under the main contentMc movieclip.
This is the pathway on my contentMc (where all of my pages are located), just in case that doesn't make sense: [URL]
I have looked at several different instructions online, but none of them seem to work.
EDIT:
I am also trying to get a button on my gallery page to load an external image, but it is not recognizing where the button is either:
btnGallery_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showPic1);
function showPic1 (e:MouseEvent) {
var target:Object=e.target;
var parent=target.parent;
my_loader.load(new URLRequest("image-0.jpg"));
}
is there anyway to have a button play frames 5-10 on a movie clip inside the current frame, as well as skipping to...lets say...frame 10 of the scene?
i want to create a site where buttons go to different pages, but those pages have animations in and out.so if someone is in one page, and clicks a button to go to another, that page plays the "out" animation while the other page plays the "in" animation.
Basically I have a movieclip that when I roll_over it reveals two buttons that I then need to use to remove movieclips that are on the same stage as the original movie clip. So the button inside the movieclip needs to remove a different movieclip that is also up on level.I've tried this many different ways, none seem to work. The error that I keep getting is undefined property of "grey_mc." And yes I made sure it has an instance name of grey_mc on the main stage. my code looks like:
Code: removeButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler); function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent) {
I have attached the file to this document, but basically I have a street scene which will eventually have about 5-6 people walking along the stage.
Currently on rollover of a button within the movie "movement_clip" my button will go to the overstate which shows a still of the animated women standing still. However...what I want to do on rollover, is I also want to pause "movement_clip" wherever it is in the process and then continue from where it got paused on rollout.
I have created a movie clip button but am stuck with the actionscript. I have created the rollover and rollout for this movie clip button but i want it to do 2 things after this i want it to go and stop on the first frame of a movieclip which has my content on it called portfoliogallery_mc (which is also the same instance name for it) when you then click the button i want it to go and play frame 11 of that movie clip portfolio gallery_mc. Here is my current actionscript i HAVE Flash 8 on my comp that i am currently using. Please note my actions are on a layer called actions and not on the movieclip button itself. nxtimagetwo_mc (is the movie clip button/instance of mc)
i want a button in a mvie clip which moves the main movie clip to certain frames. THIS I CAN DO.
However when i add drag and drop code to the main movie clip (of which this button is inside) the button no loger moves to the frames but the drag and dropworks.
i want to drag and drop a movie clip with a button inside this which changes the main movie clip. what do i need to add?
I am very new to flash. I've built a movie clip, inside this movie clip there is a button. There button does not respond to clicks (when I hover over it my cursor remains the same). I know it's not a problem with the button, since when I put the button directy in the main scene it works just great.
How can I get a button inside a movieclip link to a frame in another movieclip on the scene? I tried this code:
function gotoCenter(event:MouseEvent):void { MovieClip(root).centermc.gotoAndPlay(2); } skruetest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoCenter);
..where "skruetest" is the button, "centermc" is the movieclip where I want to go to frame 2. I don�t get errors with this code, but nothing happens when I click the button. What can I do?
how can i get a MC button that is inside another MC to carry out its functions
the mc button is using TweenMax for its roll-ON roll-Off effect and that works as normal when i test main movie
but the button itself dont function when pressed still mouse roll-On roll-Off effect works but not the movie clip button it this to do with it been nested inside another mc or is it the code am using below
web.onRelease = function(){ gotoAndStop,(49); }
web is just the name of the nested movie clip button i was saying
now how do i make the movie clip to first go from frame 1 to 10( last frame in teh movieclip) with the text time and then when the movie clip starts again it should say place and so on and so forth.. depending on how many textline variables i define in the text file?
I have a character, And in its movieclip I`ve got 3 frames (first has an idle pose, second a walking pose and third a running pose), each with a movieclip with an action in it.Well, what I wanted is that when I am walking with this character, and press the SHIFT key he runs.And I`ve got the following code
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT))[code]....
But when I click the shift button, he shows the first frame static of the movie clip in frame 3 (running frame).
how do we refer the submenubutton which hasbeen masked inside a movie clip.
In my code ,
mainBtn3 is present inside "mm " movie clip . and on click of it I am able to move to another frame using below code . But, if there is a sub menu for the button , and if I am referring it as below [mm.btn3sub1] and trying to move to another frame . I am getting following error
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at sumiyatried12356_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
Ok so I have a function (loadthm1) on frame 1 of the main time line. I want to call it from inside a movie clip as the playhead passes a frame. In as2 I could just say _parent or _root.functionName(); but in as3 I get a undefined method error. How do I point to the function and call it?
ActionScript Code: var thmLoader1:Loader; function loadthm1(url:String):void {
Im able to link to a movieclip inside a movieclipUnfortunately one of the movieclips now are a scrollbar and scroll. Now the actionscript isnt working?cal.onPress = function() {gotoAndPlay(2);message1.contentMain.message.total = unit1;
I need to find a way to make a movie clip or button click and direct to a movie clip that pops up a window with data and has an x box to exit that movie clip. I also need that box WITH the x to be draggable together.
//Louisville,CO ------------------------------- louisville_btn.onPress = function () { louisville_box.gotoAndPlay(play);
In flash CS5 I want to go back to the main time line, from inside a movie clip button, so when i click the the movie clip it goes to another frame on the main time line..
hi i am having trouble getting my buttons to work right in flash cs4. is it possible to have a button gotoandplay a frame inside a different movieclip? if so how?
i have a button inside a movie clip.I want the button, when i click it, to go to a web page in a new window.I have put my script on the top layer of the main timeline, in a layer called 'controls'
Here is the script:
Code:
function openPhotomore(yourEvent:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://anarkiuk.deviantart.com/gallery/#Photograph"),"_blank"); }; photomore_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openPhotomore);
I have given the button an instance name of 'photomore_btn', but it seems to be inside a tween aswell?When running the swf i get the error:
1120: Access of undefined property photomore_btn. How come it cant find the photomore_btn?
