I'm having trouble with something that should be incredibly basic, yet i have no idea how to solve my problem.

it shows x as being 3 when you hit the button but it reverts back right away, so it looks like gotoAndPlay(2) is still playing frame

I am trying to get just a single pose from an armature layer without copying the whole layer. I just want the exact arrangement of symbols from a specific frame of the armature layer alone; in one keyframe; without the armature; into a normal layer. I tried a few things, like breaking apart and copying the individual keyframe (ctrl+click on the frame I want and "copy pose"). I thought about converting an armature layer into a frame-by-frame animation so I can just copy the one frame like I want, but it's apparently not an option. When I tried the break apart option it just breaks down the first frame of the armature layer into one big vector graphic. I've even tried highlighting every frame except the one I want to use and pressing Shift+F5. Nothing I've tried so far works.
This is annoying because if I don't find a solution, I will have to take each separate symbol used in this frame of the armature layer and individually align them all in the exact same position in the normal layer
I am really confused about this issue ...
In the first Frame i wrote the following code:
stop();
var currentInterInfo:IntersectionInfo = null;
var currentInter:Intersection;
gotoAndPlay("Frame3");
[Code]....
When I run it, i get "Frame 2" in the output although i should get "Frame 3" as a result ... and When I debug, i get "Frame 3" ...
I am working is CS3 and am experiencing problems changing the first frame on a graphic symbol. When I type in a new number it jumps back to the old one. When I try to change play once/loop/single frame setting it jumps back to the previous setting. I am trying to simply modify this on a keyframe in the symbol's layer on the main stage. I've experienced this on multiple occasions, but can't get the workaround this time. I know I can do what I am attempting. In fact, I do it at a couple of spots earlier in this symbol's instance without problems.
View 4 RepliesIn this bit of code is there anyway to adjust the gotoAndPlay Command to play from frame 114 to frame 200. Are there any commands that will do this. I want it to play from frame 114 to frame 200 when a button is pressed.

I am making a website with a flash menu. I want it to gotoAndPlay a particular frame (frame A) when the cursor is on a button. When you roll the cursor off of the button I want it to gotoAndPlay a different frame (frame B). That part was easy enough. But here is the problem. If you click on the button I want it to continue playing frame A even when you roll off.
View 3 Replieswondering if this is possible. I have a button and want it to play from let's say frame 10 to frame 15I'm starting with this:

I currently have 3 major sections in my Flash file, and need to be able to play the frames backwards, within each segment, if the user so chooses to click the back button.Let's say it's on Frame 250 (or any other spot on the respective timeline for each section) and the user clicks the back button, I want to be able to "gotoAnyPlay" Frame 225 to Frame 220.So, jump from current Frame 250, start playing on Frame 225, play to 220, and then stop.

View 1 RepliesMy timer counts down from 60 to zero. I want my movie to go to the next frame at zero count. How would I make a condition to go from frame 1-2? I need to find the right operator and values, but I get lost in the strings.
What I am trying
If (something is <> == true false);
gotoAndPlay(2);
stop();
//
var timer:Timer = new Timer(100, 300);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, countdown);

I'm making several experiments like this to understand conditionals. I need to build objects that function similar to preloaders.

I'm trying to write an if then statement that will loop back to frame 1 once the next frame it hits is higher than 5. For some reason it doesn't work and I could easily go to frame six and add a go to and play but, I'd like to learn what's wrong instead of doing it the easy way.

one thing that always annoyed me and that I never sought an answer for is, occasionally, when I want to play a single frame of a symbol, it won't stay on the frame I want. It will automatically default back to whatever frame # it is originally on.I read that it was because it has something to do tweening automatically syncing and snapping and I just have to turn it off. However, I can't figure out how to do that.
View 1 RepliesI have a building floor plan with multiple building levels. Each level occupies a space in the main timeline. And when they click on a particular room, the page is refreshed with that room's info thanks to a little bit of php.
When a room on a particular level is clicked, and the page refreshes, the flash (obviously) starts to play from frame 1 again which is the main level.
I would like to pass the frame # to gotoAndPlay() from outside flash when the user clicks on a room on the upper levels of the building so the proper level is shown.
I downloaded a basic flash menu from iStock to use on a site I am making... but I am having an issue: Basically the component will let me drag instances of it onto the stage... , but when I try to edit any aspect of the component... it changes every one I have on the stage. All I want to do.. is to be able to script each instance to gotoandplay on a certain frame... the scripting is as follows:
this.onRollOver = function() {
this.mouseOver();
}; [code].....
Using MX 2004. I would like to play the entire movie twice, then start playing a third time until frame 30 and stop.
View 1 Repliescan flash take each frame and export it out as a image ? In my case, I want to create sprite images for a flashdevelop project using blitting. Of course I know there is a solution for this. like copy and paste each shape into a image editor such as photoshop and turn them into png's. But I am just seeing if there is a simpler means of doing so.
View 2 RepliesI'm not too acquainted with using loops. If you use a loop in one frame and then leave that frame, does the loop continue? This might be a strange question but I'm having some issues and I think they involve the use of a loop.

hen you click on a button within my swf it loads an external swf into an MC that sits on top of the 1st swf, which continues to play underneath.Within swf2 I have lots of pages that you can navigate to, which works fine on its own, but not when I try to play it through swf1.When I click on any of the navigation buttons they don't work.I've tried making an MC within swf2, putting all the pages in there and on the navigation buttons doing:
on(release){
_root.swf2MC.gotoAndPlay("frame");
}

I've got a simple button that when clicked needs to go to a particular frame and stop when it hits the stop(); however when I test it I get a type error #1009 Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at PostCard_fla::MainTimeline/frame25()
I need to be able to tell it what frames to go to manually so the user can jump around the time line using short animated transitions between pages (set up like a web page) in AC2.0 this was easy, but its different in AC3 and I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong.
This is my code:
stop();
btn_flip.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(28);
};
I am using Flash CS3 with AS2 to write code that will fade images in and out, looping from the last frame back to frame 20. Loading the images with XML is working, as is the fading in and out. Unfortunately, when it reaches frame 390 it loops back to frame 1 instead of frame 20.In frame 390 I tried using gotoAndPlay(20) to code the loop. Then I tried using _root.gotoAndPlay(20); but this did not work either. I am not sure why it is playing frame 1 instead of 20.
View 3 RepliesQuick way to write the following code please (i know it's simple - i just don't know how)

basically; if the MC frame number is between 24 and 29 (greater than 24 but less than 29) i want it to gotoandplay from a different frame.
I have a flash file that the action scripts doesn�t appear to work. It is regarding a form turned into a movie clip. I copied the action script and format from a tutorial from this web site (Kirupa Flash_php_email.fla). It�s a fairly easy tutorial, but I can�t get it to work. Essentially, after the user fills out the name, email, and message fields, he clicks on the send button. I�m trying to copy the same concept into my fla file. The send button loads the variables and sends an email out to the user. I�ve been able to get that portion to work with the email.php file. It will return an email to the user, but the movie just seems to pause and not advance to the next frame. The data the user inputs remains on the screen. I�m not sure if a stop command is preventing it from moving to the next frame or not. What I can�t get the done is to go to the next frame where the user is told �Thank You� and clicks on the Continue button.
I have an action script layer and on frame 118 it has the stop(); command I have a layer called �txt�. On frame 118, all the input text fields named, name, email, and message have been grouped together then converted to a movie clip called form. On that same layer, on frame 119 I have labled those group of frames �ThankYou�, which also displays the Thank You and a Continue button.
Here is the actionscript on frame 118 for the movie clip �form�
[original script from tutorial]
onClipEvent(data){
//show the welcome screen
_root.nextFrame();
}

I've got a timeline and four buttons which each gotoandplay from the first frame on the same timeline. But I want each button to Stop() at different frames on the same timeline. So is it possible to do a GotoAndPlay ... And Stop function on a button in flash?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a Play Again button on my game. When the game finishes a menu comes up on the screen with a play again button. The menu is created using a class and the button event is created and handled in the actionscript in the current frame. The button event handler makes a call to gotoAndPlay(currentFrame, "scene").
Whenever the button is pressed however it takes me to the next frame, for example if the current frame is 3 it will show frame 4. Usually the button is removed from the stage when the button is clicked but if i disable that and the button remains, you can click on it again and it it will take u to the correct scene, and again will take you to the next scene and back again and so on..
Im going to make a page in flash as3, and now I have build the most of it.
