• Transparency with action script

  I have a swf file and I want to give a transparent background on the stage. I understand that it is possible to give it transparency through the HTML publish setting using the ' transparent windowless "property.
  However, I wanted to know if there is an actionscript property to give the same effect of transparency to the scene. like the opactiy or something (sorry, that I may be wrong)

  The thing is I have an external preloader that loads the swf content and when it is loaded, the stadium loses its transparency.
  any help please with action script on transparency?

  As mentioned, that there is no bottom in a loaded SWF file. Unless you EXPLICITLY put a layer in your document with a background on the subject, it is transparent. You can load SWF 500 inside another, you will never get a background of any of them.

  The sole purpose of context is if the original HTML wrapper was not established transparent windowless.

  Your problem is elsewhere, trust us. Look for something, a background of drawing in one of your movies, because something is without doubt.

• Interpolation with action script + / from a fixed location

  I know the basics of the interpolation with action script, but I have a picture located in the center of the stage at x = 50.  With a click, I, move this photo - 10 x from this position if it will end the interpolation at 40.  A different button, I would make the oppositie, + 10 x to its current position and if it was at 40 you come back at the beginning and if it was at the beginning, it would be at age 60.

  Thank you

  You can use:

  prevTX.onRelease = function () {}

  this.useHandCursor = false;

  nextTX._visible = true;
  prevTX.enabled = false;
  nextTX.enabled = false;

  addition of the var: number = 100 + thTX._x;
  var myTween1:Tween = new Tween (thTX, "_x", Strong.easeOut, thTX._x, addition, 3, true);
  myTween1.onMotionFinished = function() {}

  prevTX.useHandCursor = true;
  prevTX.enabled = true;
  nextTX.enabled = true;

  }

• Fill the stage with Action Script

  Hello
  
  I'm new to flash and Action script. I would like to know how I could fill (instead of copy and paste) the scene with a small button e.g. 10 x 10 px. Let me explain what I'm trying to do here. It's a simple game that includes 4000 buttons, 50 lines of 80 buttons. Each button has States, not available, available and in the process. Visitors come to the page and start clicking, wins the one who has the most clicks.
  
  So instead of doing this with the painful copy and paste, to give the button a unique id, I was wondering if there is a way to do this with action script, generating 50 lines, 80 buttons per line, and each of them giving an id with j ++ or something.
  
  Thank you very much and sorry for my English.

  Of course, no problem actually. I would use two pieces of code. The first would be a
  class, which extends MovieClip and attached to your button element in the library.
  Then a little to the loop on the main timeline to attach buttons to the
  step and you're all set.

  For the class:

  class com.yourdomain.Sample extends MovieClip
  {
  var myID:Number;

  function Sample() {}

  public function set id(newID:Number):Void
  {
  myID = newID;
  this.onRelease = function() {}
  trace (this.) MyID);
  }
  }

  }

  Of course, you will need to change the com.yourdomain to your own class path.
  Then just put your clip in the library to export for ActionScript and set
  class: com.yourdomain.Sample

  In the main timeline then write a function createGrid bit as follows:

  function buildGrid (tot, sx, sy, pc, cs, rs) {}
  var startX = sx;
  var currX = startX;
  var startY = sy;
  perCol var = pc;
  var colSpace = cs;
  var rowSpace = rs;
  Use tot + 1 because we are not going to go 1-0 in the loop below
  var total = tot + 1;

  for (var i = 1; i)< total;="">
  Clip var = this.attachMovie ("btn", "btn" I, I + 10, {_x:currX,)
  _y:startY});
  clip.ID = i;
  currX += colSpace;
  If (I % perCol == 0) {}
  startY += rowSpace;
  currX = startX;
  }
  }
  }

  And call it:

  buildGrid (100, 20, 20, 10, 12, 12);

  This will make a grid of 100 occurrences of the element named "btn" (one with)
  your attached class), from 20,20 with 10 per line and 12 pixels
  between the centers... When you click on one any of them they will trace their
  appropriate index 1-100

• Problem of Windows with Action Scripts run from a Panel

  I created a panel that has shortcuts for Menu items and tools. I have also two buttons on my slab that run scripts that were created with Actions. I tested these two scripts with the ExtendScript Toolkit for both Mac and windows.

  Both scripts do not run on some computers in the window, but they do on others. It seems that the problem more with 7 of the window then in any other operating system, but it is not universal.

  I am at a loss on how to get hurt this problem. Machine window 7, I'm testing on runs the script without any problems, but some users of my panels have the problem above.

  Any ideas?

  Thanks in advance - Sam

  Action handler code looks like it's a step to play a shadow of action which lies in a defined action named SmileixPix.

  If you added that action shadow action value saved SmilePix the action defined and distributed the action defined in the package.

  If users have an action set SmilePix and you loaded the update action defined as a part of you install. Users can end up with two responsible actions named sets SmilePix one containing the action of the shadow and the other without the Sdade action.  I don't know what would happen if your panels has been used and there was a prior action set SmilePix which is not the action of the shadow.  Make sure that defective computers do not list Action Games named SmilePix twon

• Help with Action script 2.0 Please

  Hello
  I'm new to actionscript and I really could with little help please. I'm loading external movie clips in two different containers depending on which button is clicked. Sometimes, there may be two conatiners attached to a buuton click, while the other buttons may only need to download a video clip. Here is the action script, I've been using:
  
  Button1.onPress = function () {}
  _root.createEmptyMovieClip ("container", 1);
  _root.createEmptyMovieClip ("Container1", 2);
  unloadMovie ("container1");
  loadMovie ("scene2.swf", "container");
  loadMovie ("scene5.swf", "Container1");
  
  Container._x = 50;
  Container._y = 110;
  container1._x = 170;
  container1._y = 5;
  }
  Button2.onPress = function () {}
  loadMovie ("scene6.swf", "container");
  unloadMovie ("container1");
  Container._x = 50;
  Container._y = 110;
  }
  
  It is responsible for the movies, but I have to press first button both work. Ideally I need to be able to call a movieclip at any time. Can someone tell me where I'm wrong?

  Try to move these lines outside the function of the button:

  _root.createEmptyMovieClip ("container", 1);
  _root.createEmptyMovieClip ("Container1", 2);

  You can use 'this' instead of '_root'... that will save any problem if you never move it to some other films. In addition, move the x / y assignments right under these lines since they relate to them directly.

• Help with action scripts

  I have developed a website and I have problems with something that is probably very simple. I created several clips that expand and contract as you hover over them. I wanted to make a function/method when the user clicks, it leads to another scene from this movie. Here is the action script I use:
  
  {We (Release)}
  gotoAndPlay ("scene 9");
  }
  
  Unfortunately, this does not work. I thought that maybe the method one (release) would not work on these video clips based on the action script that I was already using to expand/collapse the boxes, but the following code works fine:
  
  {We (Release)}
  getURL ("home.html");
  }
  
  I'm puzzled. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to what I should do? Here is the web address of the page, I'm working, that's the movie I'm having a problem with. AndrewJW.com. the first picture on the left next to the photograph of Word links to another page in the site. The image of Pearl next to this ring is one who will not advance to the next scene in the film.
  
  Thanks for any input.
  
  Andrew

  Jeckyl >

  UH... Okay I admit my mistake in the 2nd script.
  _root.gotoAndPlay () takes a single argument,
  _root.gotoAndPlay ("scene 9", 1); doesn't work.
  Thanks for reminding me

  in fact this will make me confuse awhile,
  indicator of code in flash.

  for gotoAndPlay,.
  gotoAndPlay ( frame);
  gotoAndPlay ( scene, frame);

  for MovieClip.gotoAndPlay,.
  MovieClip.gotoAndPlay ( framework);

  Thus, gotoAndPlay can accept 2 arguments only when use without 'something dot' forwards.

  If Andrew script is attached to an instance of the button symbol, we use

  {We (Release)}
  gotoAndPlay ("scene 9", 1);
  }

  As Andrew attach the script to an instance of movieclip, it can use:

  {We (Release)}
  gotoAndPlay ("scene 9");
  }

  where the label to be the 1st image of 'Scene 9' even with the stage name.

  I'm right Jeckyl?

  I heard a lot of people said 'scene' + 'script '=' buggy', but some times that I get it 'works '. What is your opinion?

• Action Script 3 Question

  I have a problem, I have a flash site that I am building.  When the site loads up, it will go through the opening animation and then go to the home page (which is a clip in the clip) and when he goes to the home page continues to play this movie again and again clip animation.  I used Clipname.stop (); and Clipname.Clipname.stop (); both imagined errors saying that the Clipname is not a defined property.  So I put stop(); in action script and now the code XML does not load in the page. Here is the code for the home page:

  (The code is Scene1-> content (movieclip: frame 1)-> ContentHome (another Movieclip):)

  
  var xmlholder:URLLoader = new URLLoader (new URLRequest("home.xml"));

  xmlholder.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onload);
  
  function onload(e:Event):void {}
  Feed.Text ="";
  var xml = new XML (xmlholder.data);
  for (var i: Number = 0; i < xml.story.length (); i ++) {}
  feed.appendText(xml.story[i].body+"\n\n");
  }
  }
  
  var xmlholderevent:URLLoader = new URLLoader (new URLRequest("events.xml"));
  
  xmlholderevent.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onloadevent);
  
  function onloadevent(e:Event):void {}
  Event.Text ="";
  var xml = new XML (xmlholderevent.data);
  for (var i: Number = 0; i < xml.story.length (); i ++) {}
  event.appendText (xml.story [i].date+"/n"+xml.story [i].storyname+"/n"+xml.story[i].body+"\n\n");
  }
  }
  
  var xmlholderpoll:URLLoader = new URLLoader (new URLRequest("poll.xml"));
  
  xmlholderpoll.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onloadpoll);
  
  function onloadpoll(e:Event):void {}
  Poll.Text ="";
  var xml = new XML (xmlholderpoll.data);
  for (var i: Number = 0; i < xml.story.length (); i ++) {}
  poll.appendText (xml.story [i].date+"/n"+xml.story [i].storyname+"/n"+xml.story[i].body+"\n\n");
  }
  }
  
  I need to know where to put in a stop command. For the loop ends and can load the XML file.  If anyone can help, that would be great

  put a stop() on the last frame of the timeline that repeated suburbs.

• Help! Need to know how to swap the depths with Action Script 3

  So, I have several video clips on a single layer.  Its a gallery interactive where when a photo is selected it both the clip and the picture expands to fill the screne.  The problem is, given that the animations take part in video clips and all film clips exist on the same layer when they are selected and grow to fill the screne they are being hidden behind all the movieclips in front of her in this layer.  I know that there is an action to bring movieclips to the highestdepth or to the front on click/release, but I have no idea where to start. But I work in actionscript 3.0

  If it helps we can post a link to the flash file.

  Thank you!

  You can use addChild (obj); to make an object to move to the top of the heap.

• Action Script 2 with scroll pane

  The project I'm working on is only a Action Script 2.  Took a project IE updated to a site.

  What I'm trying to do is have a scrolling pane that will contain the images and linkable links

  So I have a:

  Scroll one component the instance name is spane

  I have a clip (with images done art card) and I have name myimage and the instance name is myimage

  The two are on a single layer and frame 1 (note there are more elements on the page but on different layers)

  I chose with instances (both) and action script I

  Spane.source = myimage;

  But it doesn't work at all, I've got is a box

  Any help would be great.

  The scroll pane will be working with action script 2?

  Thank you

  Damon

  Is there an as2 scrollpane.

  You must use the scrollpane not the scrollpane as3, as2 and you use code as2 (check under components help files).  for example, use contentPath, no source for your as2 scrollpane component.

• Need help with 3.0 in Flash CS5 action script?

  Hi I work with action script 3.0 in flash and our school teacher wants us to create a simple action that allows us to have a clip from the animated film and then we have a stop and a button "play", so when I click on stop the clip stops and when I click on play it moves again. Have tried several times, I get compiler errors. I have my buttons on one layer and my video clip on a separate layer. All I have is 2 buttons. One for the stop and the other to play.

  What I am doing wrong? Here is my code and my mistakes-

  start_btn.onRelease = function() {}

  
  Polygon.Play ();
  }
  stop_btn.onRelease = function() {}
  Polygon.Stop ();
  }

  Here are my mistakes and if he please be aware that our teacher said to use action script 3 only and no action script 2.

  Scene 1, 'Layer' buttons, image 1, line 1 1120:Access of start_btn of property not defined
  Scene 1, 'Layer' buttons, image 1, line 1 1120:Access of stop_btn of property not defined
  Scene 1, 'Layer' buttons, image 1, line 1 1120:Access of the polygon of property not defined
  Scene 1, 'Layer' buttons, image 1, line 1 1120:Access of the polygon of property not defined

  I think your teacher, or anyone else, gave you sense with ActionScript 2 programming. In AS2, what oyu have here would have worked very well. But in AS3, you use a rather different approach. Your buttons and their instance name, can remain the same. But now in AS3, you must add the following event listeners:

  yourButtonName.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, yourListenerFunction);

  In your case, you can do one of two things - A) assign a unique to each key listener function or B) assign the same listsner to the two functions:

  (A)

  start_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, startPolygon);

  stop_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, stopPolygon);

  function startPolygon(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  Polygon.Play ();

  }

  function stopPolygon(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  Polygon.Stop ();

  }

  (B)

  start_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, controlPolygon);

  stop_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, controlPolygon);

  function controlPolygon(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  If (e.target.name == "start_btn") {//Test for the name of the object that sent the CLICK event

  Polygon.Play ();

  } ElseIf (e.target.name == "stop_btn") {}

  Polygon.Stop ();

  }

  }

  When I use multiple buttons that do the same/almost similar things, I support approach B on A, as it keeps me just a simple to process function.

• stop the sound with the action script?

  Hello

  Im a beginner with action script, and is there a way to stop a sound using actionscript?

  My sound is called "CRICKET.mp3", if it is necessary to know.

  You can still use:

  SoundMixer.stopAll ();

  to stop all sounds.  but, if you want to stop a particular sound, you must apply stop() to soundchannel your sound (created when the play() method is applied to your sound).
