• How to call a function within a movieclip on the main timeline in CC animate canvas?

  Hello world...

  In AS3: Function (fnc name: myFunction) inside a Movieclip (mc1). I'll call you timeline mc1.myFunction ();

  But how to call AnimateCC canvas?

  If you have an instance of MovieClip named "mc" with the following code in to:

  This.Fun = function() {}

  Alert ("Hey!");

  }

  You can call this function (increased to 'this' within the MC) using the oon following the main timeline:

  var root = this;

  this.mc.addEventListener ("click", function() {}

  Console.log (root.mc.fun ());

  });

• How to target button in movieclip on the main timeline

  Hello!
  
  I have a few buttons of submenu in a movieclip in the mainline. My first level of navigation in the main timeline. The submenus are grouped into movieclips on the main timeline. I basically used the same code on the main navigation for the navigation sub except the code for the submenus is located in this movie clip. My instruction trace bed button is clicked (which was a quantum leap for me) but I know that I need some kind of code _parent in there so that he knows to go to the label back on the main timeline. Can anyone help? I feel like I'm so close.

  Also is this a correct way to set-up? I couldn't figure out how do it in an image. Any help would be so appreciated. I didn't know that this basic framework would be so difficult.

  Here is my code which is on the movieclip submenu:
  

  Code:

  stop();
  
  fall.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
  spring.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
  
  function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent){
       //trace shows what's happening... in the output window
       trace ("The "+evtObj.target.name+" button was clicked!")
       //go to the section clicked on...
       gotoAndStop(evtObj.target.name);
  }

  One of the reasons that I never won any price for my vision of the design are because I am often... If it works, use it.  There are many ways to approach a design and yours is very good if you understand.  If she was going to smash something, it would have happened now.  Some people don't go to the extreme of having absolutely no code in a file, some even no content library, he wrote everything in files and class not by necessity, but to simply believe that it is the best way, or a challenge to prove their skills...  They have the it.  He participates a practicality with design that allows to make Judgment calls and if you feel that your approach to design is convenient for what you understand or which meets the needs of the project, then you have the right to follow your own path.

  That said... in the case where a person must inherit from your work somewhere down the road, that's when your approach can be victim of judgment... If someone can not follow, either found it difficult to put all the pieces together, or find them, then you become the contact person for the moans fall that follows.  But you're not likely to have to hear about it.  Yet, one day, if you are in a position where you inherit a person guestroom... and start whining about how they did it, you will come to appreciate the reasons to consider how approach you your designs.

• Access a MovieClip in the main timeline of an external class

  Hello

  
  

  I've been struggling with the same question for a few days now, and I don't know it can be easily solved - I have just found a way that works for my case

  
  

  Basically I have a series of clips on the main timeline, the name "S1B1' to 'S5B8' as a result. I would like to add to a table in a separate category called "BeatArray".

  
  

  For the moment, I found no referencing the MovieClips from the separate class file that works, and I tried many different methods (including adding MovieClip (root). before each one and various other things).

  It's probably worth noting that the external class has already extends MovieClip.
  

  
  

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  
  

  See you soon

  When you instantiate the outer class passes a reference to the main timeline and assign it within the class and use it in your targeting.

• Button on the main timeline control movieclip

  Hello

  I have a stop in my main script. At the stop, I have a play of movieclip. In the movieclip, I'll have a video playback. After playing the video, I have a button for the user to continue playing until the end of the movieclip. Once the movieclip is done, I want back the return to a specific image in my main script.

  I can't figure out how to make this work. Anyone have any ideas?

  Thanks in advance,

  Paul

  How much of what you just described in currently working properly?

  If it's just the last step to have the game finished main scenario the movieclip, then you might have an event listener assigned to this movieclip in the main timeline.  When the movieclip ends it can send an event of this listener that can trigger an event handler function in the main timeline to tell the main scenario for continued as planned.

  Another less glamorous but more compact approach might be to have a drive inside / at the end of the movieclip to order the main scenario of an act using something like...

  MovieClip (parent) .gotoAndPlay (whatever);

• Close button in an interpolation that takes back you to the main timeline

  I have a HTML5 canvas document that has 5 separate click to open the motion tweens.  Within each tween, I have a "close" button that I want to return at the beginning of the main timeline.  Right now he's just at the beginning of the timeline to tween movement in an infinite loop.  How can I get to go back to the main scenario for each of the interpolations of?  (For reference, I am a beginner with Animate and JS code and have not been able to find this answer in my many searches on the web).

  you want that code in the main timeline to lead the scenario primary back to its first image and stop, or you want to code on the timeline of a movieclip lead the main timeline at its first image and stop or something else?

  If you want the code on the timeline of a movieclip to lead the main timeline, use:

  this.parent.gotoAndStop (0);  assuming that the parent of the movieclip is the main timeline.

• Problem with Play Pause AS3 button on the main timeline

  I was wondering if someone can help with this? Have tried to create a play/pause for the main timeline button in my flash movie.

  Created a clip with 1 frame - a chart of the break, and then on the 2nd frame - game graphics, labeled 'pause' and executives 'play' consecutively and put a stop action on the first frame of the movieclip.

  Then put the following code in the layer actions on the main timeline (and gave the name of "ppBtn" instance of movieclip):

  var pp:Boolean = true;

  
  

  function ppState(event:MouseEvent) {}

  {if (pp)}

  Stop();

  event.target.gotoAndStop ('pause');

  pp = false;

  } else {}

  Play();

  event.target.gotoAndStop ('play');

  pp = true;

  }

  }

  ppBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, ppState);

  He works at the stopping and starting of the film but the real movieclip is not switch between the break and the game graphics (a few stays on the framework - 1st of 'pause' State). Any help in this very appreciated!

  Thank you

• Using CS4 Flach and action script 2.0 how to move a specific frame in the main timeline when a movie clip instance come at the end of his chronology?

  Using CS4 Flach and action script 2.0 how to move a specific frame in the main timeline when a movie clip instance come at the end of his chronology?

  code on the last frame of your movieclip instance:

  _root.gotoAndStop ('whatever_frame');  will work unless this swf is loaded into another swf.  in this case, you must use a relative path to the main timeline (for example, _parent or _parent._parent etc.).

• BTN in Movieclip custom back to the main timeline

  Hi all

  I have a btn in a Movieclip at some keyframe, the user is prompted to if they want to

  go back to make another selection of a category of choice (in the maintimeline)

  Like now, the code I have for the btn who jump you back to the main timeline is:

  on {(press)
  gotoAndStop (_root.stop (24));
  }

  _Root.stop (24) should be in quotes?

  That is to say. "_root.stop (24).

  Thanks in advance,

  Graeme

  Your code is not likely to work.  Try to use...

  on {(press)
  _root.gotoAndStop (24);
  }

• Coding of text within a symbol to invite "play to" on the main timeline

  Using a symbol to prepare my full menu (so it can maintain its own settings/independence, problem solved by your support :)).

  Is it possible for me to code, the text in the prompt symbol buttons to "play to" on the main timeline?

  Thanks for your time!

  Teo

  Hi Kratistoss,

  Thanks for posting. Here's what you need to do:

  (1) go to your Menu called symbol.

  (2) for any text that you want to have a link with a label on the main stage, add an action click by pressing the brackets to the left of the element.

  (3) this should pull up with a bunch of actions, a dialog box, press the click one.

  (4) in the white space, add the following code: () .getStage () sym.getComposition ("whatever_your_label_name_is") .play;

  (5) repeat for each item you want to link to the main timeline.

  It's her!

• Targeting of evil to a button on the main timeline for a VideoEventComplete at work

  I have a .fla file that has buttons on the main timeline that target frames in a mc named 'pages' in a table.  The 'pages' are implemented in the form of frames each five images or as a slide show where the buttons advance or return to the previous page.  I want to make invisible buttons until frame 30 video is complete (page 4).  When I insert the code below in the main timeline, the button becomes invisible, but there is no event that will finish to come back only to show the button so it sits right there with no way to advance as the buton is invisible,

  Then... How to target the button to only be invisible when it has an event video complete but not not start before 30 (page 4) image of the mc and then do it again in the 35 framework etc.

  I tried to put it in the main timeline and on the frame of the first video.  If I'm on it within the pages don't need to point the code on the main timeline to get code know where are the buttons? Something like main_timeline.nextbtn etc... ?

  The code in the settings:

  Stop()

  Import fl.video.VideoEvent;

  THIS BUTTON IS LOCATED IN THE MAINTIMELINE\\
  nextBtn.visible = false;
  addEventListener (VideoEvent.COMPLETE, doNextFrame);

  function doNextFrame(e:VideoEvent):void {}
  nextBtn.visible = true;

  pages.nextFrame)
  }

  All the code is:

  THE CODE of the MAIN SCENARIO is:

  Listeners of button

  import of flash.media.SoundMixer;// it comes to the

  
  nextBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, nextSection);
  prevBtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, prevSection);

  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

  function nextSection(event:MouseEvent):void {}
  
  var thisLabel:String = pages.currentLabel; Gets the current image under chain tag
  var thisLabelNum:String = thisLabel.replace ("sct", ""); cut the main letters off the number
  var curNumber:Number = Number (thisLabelNum); Converts this string to a real number number
  If (curNumber < 18)
  
  {
  
  var nextNum:Number = curNumber + 1;
  pages.gotoAndStop ("sct" + nextNum);
  
  }
  
  SoundMixer.stopAll (); Place it inside your functions

  }
  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  function prevSection(event:MouseEvent):void {}
  
  var thisLabel:String = pages.currentLabel; Gets the current image under chain tag
  var thisLabelNum:String = thisLabel.replace ("sct", ""); cut the main letters off the number
  var curNumber:Number = Number (thisLabelNum); Converts this string to a real number number
  var prevNum:Number = curNumber - 1; subtract 1 from the number, so we can go to the next image tag
  pages.gotoAndStop ("sct" + prevNum); This allows us to go to the previous image tag
  
  SoundMixer.stopAll (); Place it inside your functions

  
  }

  Please Note: it started in a previous discussion, but I think that I was confused that the question so go fresh here, thank you so much for the time on this

  I can't say I'm immune to be confused by the story you tell, but I'll take a stab to offer what could be a solution.  If the buttons are in the main scenario and the code that you want to make visible with in a movieclip which lives on the main timeline, then you can target the buttons from inside and using movie...

  MovieClip (parent).nextBtn.visible = true;

  MovieClip (parent).prevBtn.visible = true;

• stop the main timeline in AS3

  I searched the forum and maybe to find relevant solutions, but I still don't understand. How to make simple "stop()", "play()" and check "currentFrame" on the main timeline of an AS3 class file?
  
  I have an animation of script for Flash AS2 older I'm conversion in AS3 and also import an AS3 swf into.
  
  Everything works fine, except that I had to remove the "stop()" on the main timeline (if the animation does not loop) and trying to do it from the main .as file in the document.
  
  I get an error when you try to access the "currentFrame" of the scene.
  
  HOW CAN I PUT A 'STOP' ON THE MAIN SCENARIO?
  
  - - - -
  
  

  If the banner is your document class, this means that your main timeline must have only 1 frame (because the banner extends Sprite) and this means that it is foolish to check currentFrame and it has no sense to goto any image.

  do you know what you do picking the Sprite class or do you really want banner to extend the MovieClip class?

• Symbol animation does not play on the main timeline

  I created a ŒIL on the main stage and then transformed into a symbol of Clip and in that nested some cover eye movements and pupil. If setting it up like this:

  ŒIL

  -top cover

  -bottom cover

  -mask

  -student (student is also a symbol)

  -White

  Once the playback cursor reaches the image where the symbol of the ŒIL begins, the playhead moves through the timeline but any animation nested in a symbol is read. All I see is the static image of the first frame in the nested symbol. I thought that maybe I needed to extend the size of the layer of the EYE on the main stage and add more pictures. I added more pictures that the nested animation had actually and still no animation showed on the main timeline...

  Any thoughts?

  It is expected your wash / play timeline in the ide.  If you test, you should see the animation of your movieclip.
