Is this possible?I have a .fla-file. On the timeline I only have one frame (keyframe).In the library I have a movieclip called mc_testi would like to do something like this.1. when mc_test is loaded2. if num == x3. gotoandplay frame 6 (frame 6 inside the clip)I think I would place the code on the first (and only frame) in the timeline och the mainscene.
View 3 Replies0i am looking for something easy enough, but i can't find the right way it seems mission: when a button is pressed i want to load a mc (no swf) from my library, play that and when it's done playing(the mc) it deletes. purpose: i just want to make somekind of "flash" "blink" when a button is pressed. when another button is pressed the "blink" loads again. i tried it with the my_mc. _visible = true/false code. but it just doesn't work out.
View 6 RepliesI am going out of my mind trying to get this to work. I can do it in AS2 without a hitch - but not AS3.I just need to load an external swf file into an empty movieclip. Then I have 2 buttons play and pause that need to be on the top layer of the new movie and they need to play and pause the loaded swf file.

View 6 RepliesCan a button play a movieclip if it lives within another movieclip? Let me explain: Buttons in a map key ran route animations on the map. Code for button (accessed by selecting button and F9) ..reads : on (release) { gotoAndPlay("BusRoute_375");}
[Code]...
All layers and consequently all route movieClips that relate to the map as well as the stop codes for the individual route animations now reside within that MovieClip which sits on a new layer above the map key layer. However, the key buttons no longer run the route animations. What should be done so that when clicked they still play the route MovieClips. Its like the button code cant see the layers it once refered to, now that they are in a movieclip.
I am trying to create an interactive graphic. Basically, it's three squares layered on top of each other, with a large square in back, a medium square centered in the middle of the large square, and a small square in front centered in the middle of the medium square.
When you roll over the medium square, say, it expands to almost the size of the large square and some text fades in, and the small square on top of it fades away. When you roll off of the medium square, it goes back to it's smaller size, and the small square fades back in.
Currently, I have the actionscript in the movieclip to make the medium square get larger and smaller (and the text fade in), but I need to somehow reference the instance of the small square movieclip to hide it when I roll over the medium movieclip.
My actionscript for the medium square activity, currently:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
[Code]....
how to have this rolling over action get rid of the small square and then bring it back on roll out.
My question is fairly simple, but I can't find a sollution. I have a button, and I want to play a movieclip inside a movieclip from the main stage. It is the 5th frame inside the movieclip 'page' from the movieclip 'book'. I have this, but it doesn't seem to work.
View 2 RepliesI was asking button to go to a movie clip on the main timeline that had a stop frame at the beggining. Flash won't do this because it doesn't recognise anything past a stop frame and used _parent instead of _root
code on the button:
on (release) {
_global.destination_detail = "first"
_parent._parent.gotoAndStop("content_mc");
}
And in the stop frame that's at the beginning of the movieclip that contans my content:
content_mc.gotoAndStop(_global.destination_detail) ;
stop();
So I've created a variable: destination_detail
I can't see how this isn't working:[code]The button with this funtion is nested within a movieclip on the main timeline.'content_mc' is the instance name of a movie clip on the main timeline that contains frame label "1". I want to play frame label one by clicking on this button.
View 8 Repliesi have looked everywhere for a tutorial on this - i have tried writing, and re-writing codes....i just cant get it. is there any tutorial i overlooked? here is what im looking to do - NO SHORTCUTS: have my main file that loads the buttons, my external swf container, my intro animations, and my swf "out" and "in" animations when a button is clicked i want it to point me to specific frame labels. i will have an "out" and "in" frame label and which will be the locations of the transitional starting points i want it to play the "out" transition, than unload the current swf, than play the in transition, than load the swf of the button that was clicked i want the animations to all be done using frame labels all within the MAIN swf file.... i have had no luck doing this....and i do NOT like the tween class....

I've got 12 MovieClips, which all have specific functions in the movie. Those MC's will appear and dissappear after a few seconds. But what I want is, that those MC's have to appear at random .If all 12 MC's have appeared, the appearance has to be stopped. So for example MovieClip number 4 has to appear just once. So 12 MC's will appear, but everytime when the movie starts, the appearance has an other sequence.What is written above I want to place in an other MC. So there is one MC which 'load' 12 MC's within it

I need some help. I want to use several swf files and have them be called upon in a container file and play them in sequence.

View 1 RepliesI have a Nav MENU with the usual about, services, portfolio buttons on press of those buttons a seperate SWF file is loaded into a empty movie clip named "container" what i want to happen is
e.g. on press of portfolio button it plays out the home SWF which is already loaded into empty movie clip,and then when the home.SWF has reached the end frame it will then load the new portfolio SWF into the same lets say the first 10frames of any of the external SWF are the unraveling of the movie then there is a stop(); function then the next ten frames are the re-packing (sorry for terminology) of the movie
ok does anyone know or can link me to a right tutorial on to set time condition:
if system idle for certain time it wil play certain MC or load certain swf.
