I've used this code to go from one frame to the next
function backframe(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.prevFrame()
[code]....
Now it works fine until I get to the last frame. Once I get to the last frame then click to go back, it won't let me go forward until I go all the way back to frame 1.
I know I can send symbols behind and to front of another symbols. But itīs not working!Is there some properties of symbols that doesnīt allow that?

i need to stop users from right clicking to skip frames forwards & backwards. How can I AS2 code this?
View 1 RepliesI had the idea of a circular menu, and when the user clicks on a menu item, that one rotates to the top, and becomes highlighted (hopefully with easing). I've searched around here for reversing timelines, etc. but can only find ones that go to the next set frame.How do I get it to skip past the menu items in between? For example if #1 is at the top and I click on #4, I want it to skip past #2 and #3.

I am looking to control a movie clip with a backwards and forwards button. I need the clip to stop at every 5 second increment both backwards and forwards. my movie clip is 25 seconds long.
I have found script for playing a movie in reverse and have tried to change this so it will stop in the above points instead of playing to the beginning or end, but my knowledge in as3 is very limited.
Do i need to put some script that plays with percentage?
I have some code done but it could be all wrong as I am not the best coder at all, just starting out.
Here it is:
package classes

I have multiple text input fields (up to 40, depending on visibility)that tab backwards instead of forwards. Is there a simple solution to this mis-direction?

View 7 RepliesI have a image gallery where you can click a foward button or a backwards one. I have each image on every 15th frame. So when the person clicks the next button it plays from 1-15 where it stops if they click back it will go to 15-1 etc. I got it working with the 2 images so I can go between them but when I add a third it won't do anything. I execpt it's something to do with removing the event listener, but I'm not sure.
Code:
stop();
var bRewind:Boolean = false;
this.back_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseOver);
this.forward_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseOut);
function fireEvent(event:Event):void{

does anyone know the code/actions for buttons so that when the button is pressed it forwards onto an email address?

I have a cool idea for an animation, but need it to play backwards at the end of it's timeline...how hard would this be to do?So, in essense it would play frames 1,2,3,4,5 then immediately 4,3,2,1 and then 2,3,4 and so on...

Hello,
I'm trying to create an icons that move fliudly backwards and fowards across a screen and I would like motion forwards and backwards. play(); works great for going forward until stop(); is there a way to do that going backwards on the timeline instead?
P.S. using prevFrame(); is jumpy and doesn't actually "play" each frame. Multiple calls simply make the movie jump to however many previous frames you called at once in your loop so you don't see any motion inbetween.
Problem: I have an flv I would like to play backwards.
Attempt: I have used the code below to play an MC backwards as well as forwards with success in the past. Now I have an flv which I must play backwards and I thought embedding it entirely in an MC would be fine. The code works, but when ti performs the backwards portion, well, it runs very slowly.
Question: Is there a way to play the embedded flv backwards at full speed using the method I tried or do I have to load the flv into the swf at runtime?

I've made this as a "prototype", getting used to how the game will move and such, and I've got it moving as I want it, but I can't make it move backwards when I press the back button The whole thing is inside a movie clip, I just want it to play backwards when I press the back button
View 4 RepliesI'm loading my MC from XML backwards, and its separated by 10 per pages. When it's loaded to the stage it could not be arrange accordingly to grids. And when I click at other pages to let it run another 10 before the previous loaded XML object, it does not add in to the Array(I've clear off the array before reload the XML)[code]my guess on the problem might be the 2 loop which 1 is using ++ and the other -- ?
View 1 RepliesI need to play a .mov file backwards in my Flex app.
View 2 RepliesI have an application where a user uploads an image and then transforms it by clicking, dragging and using a resize bar. But my client has asked me to limit where the user can drag to, this is not a problem except I need the limits the opposite way around to what would be considered normal.
So where I have startDrag(false, new Rectangle...) that works just fine, but what I need is to let the user be able to drag outside of the boundaries and not have white space on the inside of the flash file.What I mean by this is say I have a 500px wide flash file and an image inside it which I'm carelessly dragging around. If the images right hand edge (if I drag left) hits 500px it stops dragging and does not allow them to pull it any further left.Below is the code I currently have for the drag events.

mousePos['x'] = e.target.mouseX;

I hope someone will know a solution to this problem: I have a movieclip with a tween in it, which moves a object up and down.
I have 2 buttons on my _root: One which had to move the object up till the end of the movieclip when pressed so it will stop after reaching the end of the tween. Or it stops playing when the button is released.
Another one doing exact the oposite, it moves the object down when pressed. And should stop at the beginning of the tween. This button also has to stop when the button is released. The button playing the movieclip backwards doesn't work as it should be. It doesn't reverse the movieclip, it just jumps to a previous frame.

I remember reading one time that you can play frames backwards. I have this ball going along this line, and when it reaches the end I want it to go back exactly the same. Isnt there some kinda code to play the frames backwards? Also, the line is curved, so I cant just move it straight across real easy like. I had to do a lot of tweening.
