I am absolutely new to animation, I have created a movie for web page (using Flash 8)purpose:
--movie is the navigation menu for few of my website's pages.
--uses gotoAndPlay() to play a different animation (in same movie) for each web page.
Works, but late, movie plays from 1st to 61st frame (on 61st frame there is a code gotoAndPlay(1);) then it moves to actual frame number. In the 1st frame of my movie I insert this actionscript:
//code starts
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
var surlPath;
I have a flash file of a snowman doing various activities. He's doing 7 different things (all individual movie clips) and I place each of the movie clips on the first 7 frames, I placed a stop action on each one.Here is the code I used
var myDate = new Date(); var localHours = this.myDate.getHours(); if (this.localHours>=6 || this.localHours<=18)
I am attempting to create 360 degree spin-around product viewer. So far I have a movie clip with 24 frames, each one with a different 15 degree angle shot of the product. Upon playback of the movie, the product appears 3D, spinning 360 degrees.
That was the easy part. Now what I need is to be able to click and drag the product to change which view you are seeing (or which frame in the mc you are on) thus producing a spinning effect. How can you code, in AS3.0, that when the mouse is clicked and drug, go to a certain frame based on the current X position of the mouse?
I'm trying to build a minimum payment calculator and am having a problem with the minimum payment not being able to calculate based on the current monthly value. What I think should work...locks up the browser. I've commented out the line that is giving me a problem in the code below.
I'm currently working in Flash mx 2004 and am creating a version of 'what happened in history today'. So my final layout will have the following iobjects.
Heading: 'current date' Title: 'On this day in History' Text box: Which displays the right description from a text file. history.txt Image box: which displays a pic related to the current date.
I know basic Flash but have been playing around for ages am having real trouble getting things to work correctly. The main priority is to get the text loaded based on the current date. I have an images folderwhere the pictures are stored with files names related to date i.e. 14feb.jpg and my history.txt file is set out with a line for each date. i.e., 14feb=Valentines Day etc.
I want to display images based on the date. Then it changes to the next one. For example for March it would be picture: img01.jpg and for April I would like the flash movie to automatically load the next picture: img02.jpg.
I have a button ( 3 buttons ) and each button is assigned to Load a movie. When you click one of the buttons, the LoadMovie on Level 1 is good. Now here is my problem, how will I unload the current movie before Loading the next one. I want to UNLOAD the CURRENT MOVIE first before loading another MOVIE.
I have recently purchased CS4 Design Premium. The installation of all applications went fine (no error message) and all applications work perfect except Flash CS4. On startup I see shortly the stage screen and then the spinning beach ball. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash only with no luck. I then uninstalled and reinstalled the complete Suite and still no luck. I work on a MacPro with 10.5.7. All other system requirements are fullfilled
I've created a form based flex app that populates some fields on startup. I'd like to validate that several text fields/labels are not null on startup. If any required fields are null I"ll throw and alert and close the app. There are only 4-5 fields that I need to check.
I'm wondering if this is possible.I have a local swf file.I'd like it to run automatically when the computer starts up.I would also like it to run full screen in the second monitor (graphics card is set to split the screen).
I've been running flash CS4 without error for a few months now, recently though whenever I close it I can't open it back up or I get this error:"The application Adobe Flash CS4 has unexpectedly quit.A crash report has been generated. To provide us with the best chance of fixing this problem, please select Continue to add a detailed description that includes the steps required to reproduce the crash.Recently I've been creating panel extensions and commands but deleting them from the directories to stop them loading didn't make any difference so i doubt it's that
Using Migration Assistant on my mac I transferred all my files to another computer. All the other Adobe programs are starting up no problem (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) When I try to start up Flash CS4, it just freezes with the message "copying first run files.." and then it crashes.
I don't have the install discs unfortunately (or I would try to re-install) because this was given to me by a company I work for remotely.
In my air app I am maximizing the app window on creation complete event. Because of this I initially get a smaller window for a few milliseconds which is maximized after all UI elements are rendered. Is there any way I can specify that the initial size of the window should be maximal? Hard coding the size will not works as the screen sizes may change.
My current code is: <s:WindowedApplication .... creationComplete="maximize();"> . . . </mx:WindowedApplication>
I want to read width and height from XML and then change the stage size based on these numbers in an EXE file of Flash. Imagine the main size of flash application is for example 1024 x786. I write a code which interact with user as touch screen and all startup data(like image file names and key coordination) come from an XML file. My problem is, for different PCs, I must set the size of application manually. Some touch screens have different ratios like 1280 * 400! The only way is set the stage size on startup the application butstage.staheWidthandstage.stageHeightdont change anything for me.
My crash log is located here.My specs:quote:HP Pavilion dv6700 Notebook PCIntel Pentium Dual CPU T2330 1.6/1.6 GHz2 GB ramWindows Vista Home Premium SP1 32bit
Please my flash builder always crashes on startup. I have never used the application before because it always crashes.When i open it, it tries to start up but crashes and creates a log report in a file. The contents of this file is here[URL]..I didn't post it here because it was a bit too long. Please can anyone help me with whats going on and a possible solution?
Why in the world won't this work? I have an empty MC on the stage and nothing else. On the empty MC (named "clip") I have: Code: onClipEvent(load){ this.loadMovie("myexternal.swf"); } I've also tried _root.clip and yes I've quadruple checked instance names etc.
I uploaded several intro slide shows onto a black background. They work fine, but take awhile to load (once viewed and go back-they load much quicker). While waiting to load, the stage area is white.
However when I created them, I did make sure the stage area was black.
what I might do to correct this? I just think it would look much better if everything was black until the show appears. The shows were created in Flash CS 4 (ActionScript 3.0), & the site was created in Dreamweaver CS 4.
I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) { _root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true; } on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
I'd like to control a movie clips current frame by another movie clips action script.I realise the following controls the outside (root) frame time line:
on(release){ _root.gotoAndStop(1); }
but I'm not sure how to apply that to my other movie clip. I'm guessing it would be something like this:
Im trying to load a startup photo from a folder "images" with Scottys re-size gallery script. Is there a way to load the latest edited (uploaded) file, from this folder? I can't post fla since its too big.
I want a small movie to play as part of a mouseover; but, I want the movie to reverse itself from it's current point when the user takes his/her mouse off of the button.
I have to find out the current frame of a movie clip which name is a variable (userName). I can get it using frame.text = Contr.Mara._currentframe; where Mara is the content of userName.
I�ve just spent 3 days scanning the whole Internet after this script (see below). I�ve read maybe 100 topics on varios actionsscript forums but they all end the same.

- Now, I�m just a poor web designer without no fanzy as-skills and without money.
- All I could offer you in return if you could help me out, except the sweeeeet feeling of solving a huge problem to millions of poor web designers, is helping you with a logo or something.
The visitor clicks on a link that starts to load a external swf.The swf loads behind the current content, showing the preloading process with a loading bar och numbers or what ever.When the swf has preloaded it fades over (with alpha) the current content which creates a very smooth web experience.
I am working on a simple test for hand/eye coordination, and I would like to have the current frame displayed in my movie, some people have to press the spacebar when 2 things line up, and they line up exactly on frame 49. I want it so when the people press the spacebar, it says what frame they are on (since its at 100 fps), they can then see how many hundreths of a second they were off.Does anyone know of a simple way to just display the current frame in the movie, so that when they press spacebar, they can see how many frames before or after there were from the target?
