Can I load a swf to a specific keyframe on browser refresh or if sent to another page on the site?Each page will have the same .swf header and I'd like to highlight or animate the header based on the new html page selected.
View 1 RepliesI have a file with a main movie clip called "clip" and inside that I have a couple separate movie clips. One of them has embedded audio and is called "trackPiano". I want to put an action on a keyframe so that when that keyframe is reached, the audio mutes. I think I should be able to use the soundTransform property, but I'm not sure how to go about implementing it.
Also, I'd like to then un-mute the audio for that mc when I go to another specific keyframe.
What I want to have happen is when you mouse down on the button/MC the block_mc will first jump to frame 40 and then it needs to check and stop when the block_mc reaches frame 12. I have attached a simplified version of what I was trying to do

View 5 RepliesBasically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:
Code:
//About Us Button
function test2(evt:Event):void{

I'm doing a simple animation for a varsity project. It's a story about a tiger (panjo) who becomes a vegetarian. In an attempt to keep the main timeline clean, and to keep the file size small, I moved all animations that the characters do into their respective timelines, and then I use object.gotoAndPlay(x) function to go to a specific animation in the sub-timeline, like a head moving, mouth talking eyes etc.
It has been working thus far, but now I'm stuck. I am trying to make the tiger's head move to look at something, but I get the above error when I want to go to that specific keyframe. Here is the code:

I have a simple flash that has 2 layers 2 images. one image is on the first frame and the other image is on the second keyframe. Actionscript starts on 1st keyframe. What I have it doing is loading frame one stop() reads the actionscript checks the date if the date is met it goes and stops on frame 2 and plays other image:
Everytime the flash refreshes it plays frame one then jumps to frame 2 if the date is met. How do I avoid playing frame one if the date is met what it's doing is playing the first image before the date change and a split second after it plays frame 2. (you see a hiccup)
i need the flash to "preload, check the actionscript before it loads if the date is met automataclly go to frame 2 avoiding frame one all together.
actionscript used on frame one:
stop();
var year:Number = 2012;
var month:Number = 3;
var day:Number = 22;

I am creating a web site for a kitchen company, there are differen images as headers on each page. But on one of the pages they want a flash animation to slideshow their kitchens. The animation is done, but they want it to start on a random kitchen. I have only started using actionscript and am struggling a bit, I've managed to find some coding, but they don't seem to work. What I'm looking for is a code to sit in the first frame to randomly select either frame 2, 12, 22 or 32 to go to and play on from there.
View 9 RepliesI have a external swf that I want to load into a holder on my main main mc how can I get it to load once the play head hits that keyframe? I have tried an OnEnterFrame but it gives me an error?Below would be the code I would enter after the event handeler:
loadMovie("sse-film-strip.swf", "_root.filmstrip_holder_mc");
i am creating a game now this is complex but i have been told by my fellow actioncript co worker that its doable, What it is i have a game "Reaction Tester" and It is inside a car going along the road so its psudeo 3d and i have the "walls" and road sorted now i want a movie clip in the road to throw out random objects From a Movie clip, now i will call them from frame names, say..
frame 1-10 is a tween with a box coming down and then frame 11-20 is a cat and frame 21-30 is a hole in the road Etc i want it to call a random frame to frame, to play
i'm making a game and to score some extra performance im rendering every frame of every entity into an array of bitmapdata's the first time the frame is seen, and it works well, but its wasting alot of memory because we have alot of animations, and most of them are double framed at least, so more than half of the bitmaps could be ignored if there was a way to determine if a frame is a keyframe or not
View 3 RepliesI have been trying to get 4 random letter generators to work at the same time as they all load on keyframe 60. However only one will work while the other 3 dont ever show up. I have given an example below if someone could let me know how I would get it to work. I've tried changing the variable 'x' to 'a' but for some reason it still won't work.... i want the result to be 4 random generated buttons that will be used for my menu.
View 11 Repliesi think i may have a challenge for you. I would like to have a flash movie load to a random keyframe in a timeline when the page loads. Basically, i'd like to set up a timeline with say 10 movies. When the page loads, i'd like the flash to randomly select from some predetermined keyframes (obviously where each movie starts) and when that movie ends, jump to another section of the timeline. This way, the loading of the movies is somewhat seamless and it looks like i've made 10 different flash movies.
Even if it's not possible to all load from the same timeline, i'd like to have it play the first movie, then when it reaches an ending frame, it loads another random movie from a directory on the server, and then keeps going and going until it can't stand it anymore.
When I place some codes in a keyframe, these codes are showing on all the following frames up till the next keyframe with codes. My question is, does Flash execute codes only in the keyframe or it execute whatever is in the frame regardless whether its a keyframe or not?
View 1 RepliesI have 2 keyframes on my timeline.The first keyframe has an input text field (instance name: inputTxt) and a button (instance name: btnTester).When the user clicks the button it takes them to the second keyframe where their text should be displayed in a dynamic text box (instance name: txtBox).I get a null value in keyframe 2.
View 3 RepliesI have a guestion about preloaders. Every preloader that is available on the web loads the entire .SWF.But I want the preloader to load a specific mc. So that the .SWF will run as soon as that specific mc is loaded.
in addition: Is it possible to have an mc in the .SWF that will only load when the user pushes a button?
I have an input text box, and a data.txt file containing data:[code]And I want, when i input 32, to display in two dynamic text boxes: "Ana" and "L". hope there is an easy way without using php and complex databases.

View 1 RepliesI have created a dynamic textfield which loads several text nodes from an xml file by using a for loop. How can I set each text node to load a specific swf? Does the eventListener need to be applied on the whole textfield or is it possible to add it depending on which xml text node is clicked?

View 3 RepliesIs there a way to use an loadMovieNum code at the beginning of a frame and make it load at a specific x and y coordinate? When I use this code it doesn't work...
[AS]
loadMovieNum("bodyline.swf", 5);
this._x = 43.3;
this._y=130;
[/AS]
It changes the coordinates of the main background image, not the position of the movie it just loaded. I tried something like this....
[AS]
loadMovieNum("bodyline.swf", 5);
"bodyline.swf"._x = 43.3;
"bodyline.swf"._y=130;
[/AS]
I have a SWF loading in right now, however it loads to the stages x:0 and y:0. Here's my code:
function craDone(e:Event):void {
trace("LOAD");
TweenLite.to (portfolioBucket_mc, 0.5, {x:-831, alpha:0, ease:Back.easeIn});
addChild(l);
}
How do I tell it to load to a certain Y position. The x doesn't really matter because x:0 is good.
Firstly can I apologise if I'm asking something completely obvious... it driving me crazy.
I have an swf called "branding.swf" which has a movieclip (movie_mc) and a button (save_btn)
Once you press save_btn it loads another swf "summary.swf" which also has a movieclip "form_mc". Within "form_mc" there is another movieclip "loader_mc" and some dynamic text fields.
All this happens within a standalone exe "main.exe" and is loaded into "clips_mc)
Is it possible (surely it must be) to take the contents of movie_mc and display it within "loader_mc".
Basically, I want to do a loadMovie but instead of calling "branding.swf" I want it to only load "movie_mc" which is within "branding_swf"
I have a gallery set up with three primary images. Clicking a primary image brings up it's specific subset of alternate views for the product.
I've managed to get the loading and placement down as I need it, but the images are not loading in the correct order. I've tried several solutions, the current one is that an array of each Sub Image is processed in order. It looks kinda of sloppy but image 1 loads, and when image 1 is complete, image 2 loads. After each image loads, it is put into another array. This array is used to resize and place the files. However when I do so, instead of the placement order being
item[0]
item[1]
item[2]
item[3]
item[4]
it keeps ending up like this:
item[4]
item[2]
item[1]
item[3]
item[0]
Here is the relevant code. When the following function starts with sArray, the items are confirmed to be in order.
Code:
function loadSubs(e:MouseEvent):void//LOAD SUBD
{
clearGallery();

I am loading an external swf into the mc 'image' using: image.loadMovieNum("portfolio/100_design/1.swf", 1);
Every time a new image loads, I want it to load the level above, ie: image.loadMovieNum("portfolio/100_design/1.swf", 2); Is there a way this can be done dynamically. For example, "current level + 1"
In my photo gallery, I have an array of images that load sequentially using 'next' / 'prev' buttons. The code fades out the current swf, recognises when the new external swf has fully loaded, then fades in:
this.pathToPics = "portfolio/100_design/";
this.pArray = ["1.swf", "2.swf", "3.swf", "4.swf"];
this.fadeSpeed = 40;

I am trying to load an external swf at a specific x& y pos. from a button. This is the code I am using :

}
The movie loads fine if I remove xpos="7", ypos="119";How do I get it to load at that specific position?
How can I load movie(1.swf) into the current file and make it go play the specific cue point (of the child's file)?
