Web Development :: Stop A SetInterval Function?

Nov 10, 2009

I have a function that I want to run at an interval within a frame. I use the following code to start the function:

var intervalID = setInterval(intervalFunction, 3000);

Then, in a button's onRelease I want to stop the function. In the onRelease, I make a transition to another frame.

btn.onRelease = function()
{
clearInterval(intervalID);
gotoAndPlay("nextframe");
}

The intervalFunction continues to execute.

ActionScript 2.0 :: SetInterval Keeps Calling Stop Sound Function

Oct 20, 2006

I have few sound files and I need to play then in an order and every time after the sound played a button is active then the user can click on the button to play next sound....etc. But at some point my setInterval keep calling the stop sound function even though myTimer is delete. I checked the actionscript dictionary and I found that the delete action is for Flash 5. Does it mean I can use it in Flash 7 or 8 and actionscript2?

Here is the code my created:
//-----------play sound---------//
function soundPlay(ID:Number){
var instrSound:Sound = new Sound(this);
var soundName:String = "SCP" + ID + ".wav";
soundID = ID;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Getting Stop(); To Override SetInterval?

Aug 26, 2004

I have a movie that goes through a spiel and I want to be able to stop it then hit play and have it continue. Easy enough IF the movie just goes straight through. But what mine does is pauses at certain places to make way for some spoken word (to be added later) using setInterval.My problem is (seems to be) if I hit my stop button while it's doing it's 1.5 second pause, then the stop button gets ignored.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Move And Stop An Object Using SetInterval?

Jun 27, 2004

I use the letsMove function to move movieclips

MovieClip.prototype.letsMove = function(time, step, limit) {
countHundred = function (clip) {
clip._x += step;
updateAfterEvent();

How can I use another setInterval function so, when the movieclip reaches the limit (in this case 100 pixels), it stops, waits for 1 second and starts the letsMove function again?

Professional :: Stop Caching URLLoader Accesses In Flash Development Environment?

Feb 25, 2010

I'm loading an external XML file when in the Flash development environment. ActionScript 3.0 (CS3) accesses the XML file using URLLoader. Everything is fine until I have to make changes to the XML file. When testing the Flash application while in the development environment, it does not see the changes I made to the XML file, because the URLLoader is somehow caching the results. Thus, the XML file looks exactly the same. This is very frustrating. Is there any way I can blow out this cache so that URLLoader is forced to load the XML file? Currently, I either have to re-start the Flash environment or change the name of the XML file.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Setinterval Called Too Quickly Makes It Stop Working?

Mar 22, 2006

I am having problems with this function, which is called when a button is pressed. I am loading a JPG with a movieClipLoader into a newly created movieclip, and while this is loading the other is still viewable and is faded and deleted when the new JPG has fully loaded, using the code below:

ActionScript Code:
function loadBigPicture(iValue:Number, firstTime:String):Void {
this.createEmptyMovieClip("myBigPicture"+iValue, this.getNextHighestDepth());
trace(_level0["myBigPicture"+iValue]);

[Code].....

If the button is pressed extremely quickly again and again, the intervals begin to stop working

ActionScript 2.0 :: SetInterval In Movieclip Works But Breaks Stop(); Throughout Scenes

Mar 18, 2009

I have a series of 6 images. In a single movie clip symbol (with the pictures embedded/attached in the swf), I want the images to fade in, stop for 4 seconds, fade out as the next image fades in, and repeats from there. I know how to do this with timeline tweens - but I wanted to learn how to make it in actionscript.

I've finally been able to make the images do this, but when I pull the movieclip into my main animation, it breaks all my stop(); commands for navigation. it seems to stop for 4 seconds and then continues on. I'm still very much an actionscript beginner, so I don't know how to troubleshoot it.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Looping A SetInterval Function?

Nov 20, 2009

I'm creating a banner ad that tweens a thought bubble.It has 3 bubbles which tweens from the small bubble(1st one) to the big(3rd)one every 1/2 second with the setInterval function and then Invokes another setInterval which changes the text in the big bubble every 2sec. I got it to work perfectly, but the only problem is that I cant get it to loop through again properly. When I try to invoke the setInterval "animBubble" in the changeText function it doesnt read the clearInterval in the "animBubble" function causing it not to stop once the 3rd bubble has tweened in.

Here is my code:

ActionScript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Clearing SetInterval From A Different Function?

Jun 25, 2006

how to clear the interval in this code? I'd also like to know if there is a better way of firing makeStars() than using setInterval in a function - like I'm doing. I've looked at the Kirupa tutorial and I'm not seeing what should be done.

Basically, this attaches a number of stars within the Stage width and height properties. When the browser resizes I rewrite the stars to the screen with the new bounds. But I can't get the interval to stop, so the stars just keep getting replaced - disappearing and relocating abruptly.

It all works great outside of the resizeIt() function, but once inside she goes down hill from there. A couple of things I need cleared up (pun intended) are:

1. Am I creating a new interval each time resizeIt() is executed?

2.What is the scope of the interval(s), and does how you access them change depending on where you are in the code, or are they more global?

stop();
//number of stars to make
var numstars:Number = 100;
_root.attachMovie("background","bkgd",this.getNext HighestDepth());

ActionScript 2.0 :: SetInterval On Attachmovie Function With X And Y Loc?

Apr 28, 2008

I have a function on my script that attaches a movieclip on a specific position and then it duplicates it several times. This movieclip has a code in order to move across the stage randomly. When I try to use SetInterval to repeat this function two weird things happen: the movieclips don't duplicate over that specific location (they appear on x=0,y=0) and if I set the location only one duplicates and the rest don't. My question is: what can I do to repeat the function every 2 seconds exactly as it is the first time it runs, without the objects not duplicating or moving from the original location?

Here's the code:
meteoros = function () {
this.attachMovie("asteroid","asteroid_mc",this.get NextHighestDepth());

Web Development :: Web Development - Browser Support Like For Bare SWF Files?

Aug 31, 2009

Does anybody use bare .SWF files as webpages? I know it's possible; it seems to work fine for me. Why would I embed a SWF inside an HTML page if it's just going to be full screen (I mean the size of the browser's normal viewable page area, not COMPLETELY fullscreen)?

Is there a lack of browser support? Or is this functionality determined by the browser's Flash plugin?

Web Development :: Web Development - Browser Doesn't Load Imagers All At Once?

Jan 12, 2011

If I load a web page full of other files, e.g. images, my browser doesn't load them all at once.I seem to remember reading that IE will only have at most 3 requests open at a time for a page. The rest will be queued.If I have a flash movie on the page which is continually making image requests, how does this affect the maximum number of downloading files in the browser?

Is this browser limit accurate, and is it generally the same across browsers? Does flash share the requests of the browser? If not, does flash have a limit and what is that limit?
For some background, I do have a flash movie that is continually loading files so there is a queue of Loaders waiting to make requests.My idea was that if there was a different request that I needed to be executed straight away I could make it jump the queue by making a javascript call and allowing the browser to make the request instead.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Re-setInterval Each Time Function Works?

Mar 19, 2012

I have a function that draws a rectangle on the screen (see createInfoPanel())While drawing rectangle, I am adding 2 text fields on it.But as you may guess, it is adding those immediately. I want to delay adding these text fields, then I want to remove these panels after a while. The problem is, when I set an interval or timer, they won't work after I using once (I had to stop them by clearing/removing, it didn't set them again).Since my panel is being created each time image changes, I need them to work every time image changes.
 
So, I have 2 questions:1- How can I re-set interval each time my createInfoPanel() function works? It won't work anymore after setting and claring once. 2- You can see infoPanel.addChild(titleField); line in addInfoPanel() function. How can I work a smooth animation here? I mean, text appears slowly?

ActionScript 2.0 :: SetInterval For Multiple Clips In One Function?

Apr 7, 2011

My issue is that I want to set up a system whereby I can register clips to a class that will have certain properties set and then animate changes in those properties. Namely, each clip is placed at a different _y position at authoring time, then at run time be repositioned at a different _y position, only to be animated back to the original position. I want to do this so I can edit the clips in their destined places to layout their positioning.

Visually, my code works fine but, as is apparent from the "trace("muvUp "+thing);", the interval isn't being cleared. And what's worse � at around 40000 (of getTimer()), the clips start disappearing.

I've attached a file but here's the code I'm working with (as you can see with the lines I've commented out, i've tried a few different options):

//MY CLASS ON FRAME 1:
function wordsClass(){}
wordsClass.prototype = new MovieClip();
wordsClass.prototype.onLoad = function(){

Actionscript 3.0 :: Accessing SetInterval() ID Created Within A Function

Jan 7, 2009

I am creating a text scroller and am having problems with clearInterval - the text starts scrolling, but it won't stop after I try to clear it upon a button click.

1. I declare a var (uint) equal to a setInterval() call within a function (if the text exceeds the width of the textField)

2. I have a button that "turns off" the mp3 player (swf) and resets all the text fields.

3. I can't seem to access the setInterval ID var from within the click handler.

I have declared the var (uint) at the root level, then set it to setInterval() within the function. Then I tried to access it from the click handler. I thought this would work since it's global at that point, but it doesn't.

Here's a link to the page so you can see how it doesn't work [URL] (you have to click on the last link with the long client name)

Here's the code that's involved with this function (of course this is only the relevant code, but I would post the fla when done for anyone who wants to use it):

Code: Select all//::: SCROLL DISPLAY TEXT
function scrollDisplays():void
{
(trackTextField.textWidth > trackTextField.width) ?
