Code to wait until something is finished before starting another?

Hi all

Coding is not my strong point, but I have a basic understanding of the operation of the functions, etc.

I learned about the SEO of the chronologies of symbol with the impressive Adobe Blog tutorial, included below.

http://blogs.Adobe.com/edge/2012/07/18/tutorial-leveraging-independent-symbol-timelines/

I could get my symbol to play from a certain part of his timeline depending on whether the mouse is rolling in or out, but now I'm a little stuck.

The mouseover event triggers an animation and triggers mouseout/mouseouthandler() which starts the same frame that the mouseover animation ends with another animation.

The problem is the following. If I move the mouse quickly on the buttons, the first animated film will play to half way through, and when the mouseout/mouseouthandler() triggers the second animation, the first animation apparently 'jump' at the end and go directly to the first image of the second animation.

I know enough to encode so that the second animation will check if the first animated film always play before you start using another / if statement. Using this method, I only know how to ignore the second animation if the first play, but this isn't really what I want to do.

Here's the question; can someone explain to me how to create a loop to wait onboard animate?

When I say wait loop, I'm talking about code that checks a variable and perform an action if the variable is true Goldilocks returned at the beginning of the function if the variable is set to false (to check again the variable).

The behavior that I'm trying to achieve is a bit like queuing the second animation so that he "will wait" until the first animated film is played before the start of the second animation.

Any ideas?

Heya Gil,

First of all... Thank you! Clearly that you put a lot of effort to find a solution for me despite my laziness by downloading is not an example

I'll be honest, you lost me when we declared the function. In my view, which sets a bit beyond my knowledge of javascript this early in the game! However, I found a different approach to achieve the effect I was looking for. The link below.

https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30528212/Edge_Animation_Example.zip

Instead of "pending" that something happens, I used instead the event mouseout/mouseouthandler() to proactively determine which image to start playing the second transition of.

Still a bug bit however. You'll notice if you quickly roll your cursor off the symbol animation you seem to blink before reversing it is movement. I suspect it's something to do with the code. Maybe the code is originally the symbol display a different picture in which the transition reached its peak and then proceeds to animate the correctly.

I suspect that this because even if the transition has not started to turn red when you mouse out, you will always see a red frame appears place briefly before that the animation reverses of the frame that you were.

Sorry to be so pedantic

  • If statement to unload any swf active before starting another

    I have a video player of sorts that plays one of the 6 videos based on the user clicks on the buttons. Everything works perfectly if the user selects the button 'stop' on the video control bar before moving on to another video. But, if the current video is left to play starting another video, the audio from the first video continues on overlapping each other.

    I know that it is a problem common in AS3 and should be easily remedied with unloadAndStop() but I can't get my if statement to work right. I work with march_mc and august_mc videos to understand this. Basically, I'm trying to tell Flash that if march_mc is playing when august_mc is requested to unload march_mc then play august_mc. This works if march_mc played in a first time, but if I try to play august_mc when march_mc is not playing it returns a null object error. In my head, her if statement should avoid this but I'm doing something wrong...

    Here is my code that is located on august_mc:

    augustPlay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startAugust);
         function startAugust(event:MouseEvent):void{
              if (MovieClip(root).march_mc.currentLoaded == MovieClip(root).march_mc.totalLoaded)
              {
                   MovieClip(root).march_mc.marchImgLoader.unloadAndStop(); //this is the line causing the null object reference
                   augustImgLoader.load(augustImgRequest);
                   gotoAndStop(2);
              }
              else
              {
                   augustImgLoader.load(augustImgRequest);
                   gotoAndStop(2);
              }
         }
    
    

    Any help is very appreciated!

  • Exec.vi "Wait until completion" system uses a lot of CPU. Help

    I am writing an application that calls parallel instances of an external program. I have the code of work to run the EXE file with the Exec.vi system. When the completion up to wait entry is set to true on Exec.vi LabVIEW system uses all my CPU. The EXE I am running is an exe of low intensity, and if I don't wait until completion LabVIEW has no high CPU usage. It would be nice, but I have the code which needs the EXE to finish before moving. I'm doing something wrong? I could not find this behavior as a known issue, so I would like a mental health to make sure I'm not stupid fouls. I have attached a demo that recreates the question. The VI called the EXE with lance Notepad and then updates the text in Notepad. I am attaching the source code of the demo EXE as well.

    Brandon.Baxter wrote:

    Thanks Bob

    LabVIEW sequentially launches 20 cases of "Idel_EXE.exe" who are getting a Notepad and returns information.

    This description is exactly what asynchronous call and collect is supposed to manage.  'Call' treats only the controls, move the VI 'in' data you call.  The "wait on asynchronous Call" does the rest - if the called VI has done and wants to pass 'out' data, this function provides the values.  As I have indicated, if the called VI is still ongoing, wait for asynchronous can expire, return an error (which you can use as a signal 'Wait a little bit longer').

  • 15 + minute delay before start-up

    Hey people,

    My Info: I am running Vista Ultimate 32 bit on a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200 Tablet machine.

    My problem: it is pretty well summed up by the title to my son: restart or turn on my computer, the power light comes on, but wait at least 15 minutes before starting the system. Once it starts booting, everything works smoothly.

    It all started when I used the blue ThinkVantage button on my ThinkPad (Lenovo users will know what I mean, it's basically Lenovo system maintenance tool) to download updates for my machine, including some BIOS stuff.  I'm suspicious that this has to do with my BIOS, but I wanted to hear what you guys have to say before I start shooting around my BIOS.

    I could really use some help here, I'm more frustrated.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me, and I apologize if this isn't the right place to put this.  I tried Lenovo support forums and got no help, and I really don't want to spend the money it will take to Geek Squad or similar to fix.

    Thank you

    Chris

    Finally, I solved the problem.

    As it turns out, what I thought was a problem unrelated to finish up being the root for this cause.

    After booting, I get the warning: "there was a problem connecting to the module of TPM (safety device) on this computer.  It is possible that the software anti-virus or firewall is blocking the connection.  A missing or disabled device driver can also cause this problem.  Please refer to the online documentation for more information. »

    It turned out that when I've updated my BIOS, one of the security programs that initialize during startup until was not updated correctly.

    Fix: go to the Lenovo Web site and update the Client Security Solution.  This one worked for me: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-69959.

  • Should I wait until iTunes game done on Mac before turning on my iPhone?

    Should I wait until iTunes game is made download and correspondent of iTunes on Mac before attempting to turn on iCloud music library on my iPhone?

    I had a horrible experience and cancelled my subscription Match because it made my iPhone go crazy and brought me to wipe and treat Apple (legal dept) customer relations in order to compensate me financially for the bug that downloads songs on cell when it is not supposed to and draining my battery in a few hours and cause invites every 10 seconds (without exaggeration).

    I was wondering if I should wait 2 weeks first for my collection has been completely downloaded first. It would be too iOS 9. In any case...

    Hello

    Yes. Once match / download process is complete, you can then activate the game on your phone but there is no need to wait two weeks. I suggest that you add the iCloud status column to song in your iTunes library. This will tell you which corresponded, downloaded, purchased, ineligible, duplicate or pending.

  • uninstalled applications, received message: Please wait until the current program has finished uninstalling or one. After several reboots, still same message.

    Original title: 2 numbers do not know if they are related

    I have 2 questions and I don't know if they are related. Several days ago I was doing some cleaning and uninstalling programs to free up space. I don't know what I started with, but it seemed to go ok. However, after all that I've tried to uninstall gave me the message: Please wait until the current program has finished uninstalling or one. I rebooted the computer more than once during this period, but it still says that.

    Then my internet explore has stopped working just for 2 or 3 days. I've been using google chrome to access things, but it is rather slow.
    I ran repeated virus and malware scans my norton security and the microsoft Web site, and all said I am clean.

    Yes, it's windows 7 I appreciate the suggestions, but the problem was that he wouldn't LET me not uninstall anything. He gave me the waiting message please do anything, and he's not missing if I stopped and restarted. Finally, I gave up. I saved my files to my external hardrive and just do a full recovery of the computer. He solved the problem of installed programs and the internet problem explore both, although I hoped it would avoid going that drastic.

    I think you should try:

    #1 restart your system and try again.

    #2 check that the software is not running in the background.

    #3 try a 3rd party uninstaller but be careful because you don't have much control over how a 3rd party uninstaller effectively uninstalls - sometimes they leave "debris" that can affect future use.
