Sep 29, 2010I want to create a preloader, but I don't want to deal with percentages and loading bars... I just want to play a movie clip while it loads.

Professional :: New Movie Clip Loads On Top Of Old Movie Clip
May 17, 2010I am creating a Movie Clip player interface. You can click on a thumbnail and load an external SWF. At the end of that movie clip, I would like to load another SWF, it's just a logo animation filler that plays until the next thumbnail is clicked.
I am using this script:var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(myLoader); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/movie00.swf"); myLoader.load(url);
But it loads the new movie right on top of the old one.How do I get it unload the first one?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Movie Clip To Play Unless The Person's Mouse Curser Is On The Movie Clip For More Than A Second
Jun 24, 2010I am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

View 9 RepliesRandomly Load Movie Clip When Page Loads?
Mar 29, 2009I am trying to make what I thought would be a very simple random picture display. I have five movie clips named myClip1, myClip2, etc. All are on the first frame of the timeline. Each has this as a movie clip action:
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
_alpha = 0;
}
The frame also has an action like this:
Code:
nClipMax = 5;
// nClipMax being the number of movie clips
this["myClip" + Math.ceil(Math.random()*nClipMax)]._alpha = 100;
When I test this the background (an image) displays but nothing else, the movie clips stay transparent. I have tried several variations without any luck.I am mainly an asp and net developer that uses flash periodically so be gentle.

Actionscript 2.0 :: Movie Clip Play, Stop And Play On Mouse Event?
Sep 1, 2010I want a movie clip (let's call it homecontent_MC) with 100 frames play to frame 80 and stop.Then when someone clicks a button on the navigation bar (home, about, services, contact, etc...) homecontent_MC would then begin playing from it's position (frame 80) til it reaches 100, at which point it wouldn't be on screen, and the movie clip that corresponds to the navigation button press (say services_MC...) would start from frame 1 and continue til it stops at it's frame 80...

Aug 9, 2004I am trying to create a movie clip that loops and on each loop it loads a random little .jpg banner from a directory. The banners are named 0.jpg, 1.jpg and so on, a script on the first frame of the loop saying
Code:
_root.randomnumber = random(_root.bannernumber);
_root.bannerloop.bannerholder.loadMovie("http://www.url.com/directory/"+_root.randomnumber+".jpg");
"bannernumber" is a variable from an external text file specifying how many random numbers to cycle through (how many banners), This works just fine and loads up a new banner after each loop cycle. The problem lies in trying to make each banner go to its own url, I have another external text document with variables "click0=url, click1=url etc" where I want the number in each variable to equal the randomnumber variable in flash, then use an on(release){getURL(urlvariable)} function to have it retrieve the url that is somehow in the url variable. Basically, how would I make the urlvariable be equal to the "click0" variable to get the url of the click0 variable into the getURL function? while having the number in the "click0" variable be equal to the randomnum variable?

Nov 17, 2011I have a flash banner that includes a movie clip of the logo being animated. I want the logo animation to only run at the beginning of the main "movie". Currently I have to find the length of the entire movie (for ex. 500 frames) then put a key frame in at the 500th frame of the logo movie clip. I know there has to be a correct way to do this...Do I add a frame name at the end of the main timeline and somehow in AS in the logo movie clip say "when you reach X goToAndPlay(1);"?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Play Movie Clips Embedded Inside A Movie Clip On The Main Timeline?
Dec 6, 2009I have my flash document set up in the following way: On the main timeline I have my buttons that I want to play movie clips embedded inside a movie clip on the main timeline.However, when I click each different button, the current movie clip stops playing and then the movie clip corresponding to the button plays.
I want them all to be able to play at once. So for example you push button 1 and the alien plays, but half way through you could click button 2 and the alien clip would keep playing, but also the helicopter clip would begin to play as well.Here is the code I have so far:

ActionScript 2.0 :: HTML Loads A Preloader That Then Loads The Actual Flash Movie?
Mar 28, 2009Everything is embedded in an HTML site. The HTML loads a preloader that then loads the actual flash movie. Inside this movie I created a few buttons, inside a scroll bar movie clip. I want the buttons to load a whole new movie inside the same html. The code I'm using in the button is simply:
on(release) {
loadMovie("new_movie.swf", 0);
}
The problem is that it works beautifully in the Flash movie tester but doesn't do anything when tested inside the browser, embedded in the HTML. I think the problem is that the HTML embeds as an object the first movie, the preloader for the menu movie, not the menu movie itself.

Or do i need to make it a seperate .fla and just import it, i'm not sure how to do it.

View 3 RepliesMovie Clip Is Skipping To The End On First Play?
Aug 9, 2011I want something to slide off the screen when I click on it. I (think I) have it set so that when you click, the button itself disappears, and a movie clip of the object sliding away becomes visible and plays.
Code:
mcslide._visible=false;
slidebutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Click);
function Click(ev:MouseEvent):void
[code]....
The problem is that the movie clip will either skip right to the end and stop if I have a "stop();" put in at the last frame, or it will skip right to the end on the first play, but then loop correctly after that if there's no "stop();".
