How to make a clip to close a number of times in Flash?

Does anyone know how to get a clip to a certain number of times in Flash in a loop? I know how to stop a clip of looping using the this.stop (); order by placing the command in a separate layer from the Action Script, in a keyframe within the video clip timeline. This allows the clip to play through both, and then stop. But I need to clip loop more than once, maybe 2 or 3 times and then go back to the main timeline. Anyone know the code for this?

Also, is it possible to place a break (I'm guessing, perhaps using a timer of some kind?) between the loops, so that the film is going to pause a few seconds before the loop is executed again, then stop? Please note that I must not the clip to stop when there's an event like a reversal or whatever it is. I just need to play a couple of times, pause between pieces and then stop and return to the main timeline. Please let me know if anyone can help.

Thank you

PS is there a reference work good, easy to use, anyone can recommend to create specific things in Flash using Script of Action? Guys do you have a favorite for beginners like me?

There are different ways to do... the simplest is probably to put a bit of code directly in the scenario of your clip. Assuming that your frame 1 is a 'pause' with a stop() in there, you can add the following text:

var loopCounter:int = 0;

Stop();

Then in the last frame of the clip:

loopCounter ++;

if(loopCounter == 3) {}

dispatchEvent (new Event ("clipDoneLooping"));

gotoAndStop (1);

} else {}

gotoAndPlay (2);

}

So in your main time line you have a condition that tells the clip to play with a gotoAndPlay (2); If you need to know the video has looped three times and has finished you can listen to the clipDoneLooping to ship.

myClip.addEventListener ("clipDoneLooping", doSomething);

And will be called the doSomething function.

To place a pause between loops, you can use a timer object. Instead of the gotoAndPlay (2) conditional above, you should just start a timer.

  • How to make a label (javafx) to display the current time dynamically?

    Hi all

    How to make a label (javafx) to display the current time dynamically?

    I have not found a Type of event related to the time in javafx API.

    Please give me some suggestions. Thank you!

    Sage

    There are lots of examples of JavaFX clocks available, for example https://gist.github.com/jewelsea/3388637 or http://blog.crisp.se/2012/08/09/perlundholm/an-analog-clock-in-javafx

    For a simple label displaying the time, the simplest thing is to create a Timeline with duration 1 second and the number of indefinite cycle, which triggers an event handler that updates the label:

    final Label clock = new Label();
    final DateFormat format = DateFormat.getInstance();
    final Timeline timeline = new Timeline(new KeyFrame(Duration.seconds(1), new EventHandler() {
         @Override
         public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
              final Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
              clock.setText(format.format(cal.getTime());
         }
    });
    timeline.setCycleCount(Animation.INDEFINITE);
    timeline.play();
    

    (If you use Java 8, use the new time API, which is much more pleasant than calendar.)

  • How to make basic corrections to a large number of images

    I have to make basic corrections to a large number of images that will appear in separate

    Oh, I was also wondering if Lightroom allows you to import via FTP or if I need to download the

    images and then import them.

    Thank you!

    I suggest you keep in a single catalog. You could import each lot in its own folder. All the images are going to require the same settings, could you highlight all the and activate the AutoSync to speed up the work. I do not know that collections would be advantageous if you need group different types of images. This is something for you to decide.

  • How to make a clip transparent quicktime video?

    I want to cover a few videos in the first, so I need to make it transparent.

    I know ive done this before, but I can't seem to find how I did it.

    can anyone help?

    Thank you!

    Completely? Set the opacity to 0%.

    Only the parts of the image? Use the Ultra effect or chroma Keylight in AE to key.

    If you overlay your video with clips, there is no need to adjust the opacity.

  • How to make a clipping to shape layer mask

    I'm building a small widget to the web user interface, and trying to keep all of my the most changeable elements, I can (form of layers) and things instead of rasterize layer effects. I have a shape layer that makes a badge in the shape of burst, and he has a gradient on it overlay to give dimensionality. Now, I want to put a circular layer topped on it (with a transparent gradient melted in it) to give the badge a big nail gloss. The problem is that if I do the badge, a layer of cutting for the circular Fermata, the climax gets covered by the gradient on the badge overlay. I thought maybe I could dupe the badge shape layer, stip effects, then cut the nail that and set the fill opacity to 0% - making a transparent layer... but this is just the highlight disappear thus (I suppose that elements within the clipping mask are considered by embankments - and this is also why the gradient on the Baden he covers if I hang it there).

    If I just rasterize my bland-in gradient and use a vector mask on it that has the same shape as the badge, it works fine. But it is not as elegantly resizable. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?

    Select the layers you want to hide, and then click the G command to put them in a group, and then either create a vector or a mask bitmap on the group. If you are having problems with the effects and how they interact with the mask, double click the effect and change the settings in red

  • Make a Clip + have close vulnerabilities

    Hello

    My clip + just stops! It happened several times in the weeks that I used it, but to keep it under a certain angle, I use it for several hours every day. In a first time, I assumed that maybe because where I have "clip" the clip + buttons, who encounter against my body, were accidentally upgrade presses. As far as I know the only way to turn off manually the clip is in now and pressing of SWITCH power on Cup I don't see how I can be accidentally pressing & hold this button long enough to turn off the clip + accidentally.

  • How to make a clip play back in the timeline and how to reverse a clip from left to right?

    I would like to know if it is possible to:

    1. make a video play back in the timeline

    2 reverse a clip from left to right orientation

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, both.  The specific method may vary from one version to the next.

    1. make a video play back in the timeline

    Right click > speed / duration > reverse speed


    2 reverse a clip from left to right orientation

    Apply the simple 3D video effect.  Adjust rotating it 180 degrees.

    If I understand you correctly, that is exactly what made the AE camertracker. Follow you your shot, create a camera and a solid, then simply use the replacement process to substitute your video clip for solid.

  • How to make the clip video symbols communicated once I drag and drop them in place

    Hello all and kglad, I have a problem with the actionscript code that was given to me which works very well but the only problem is that once I drag and drop the movie clip symbol it will not release the symbol in the case of sum I send you the code and someone please help this project is hot on my plate.

    See code below:

    f (subject2);

    function f(mc:MovieClip):Void {}
    mc.onPress = function() {}
    {if(!this.index)}
    This.index = 1;
    } else {}
    This.index ++;
    }
    var d: Number = this._parent.getNextHighestDepth ();
    this.swapDepths(d+1);
    var mcDup:MovieClip = this.duplicateMovieClip (this._name + this.index, d);
    this.startDrag ();
    f (mcDup);
    }
    mc.onRelease = function() {}
    this.stopDrag ();
    }
    }

    Seal55

    You must add:

    mc.onRelease = mc.onReleaseOutside = function() {}
    this.stopDrag ();
    }

    However, I find it odd that you set the anonymous functions inside another function that is a very bad strategy.

    Something more like this would be better, I think:

    function f(mc:MovieClip):Void {}
    mc.onPress = handlePress;
    mc.onRelease = handleRelease;

    mc.onReleaseOutside = handleRelease;
    }

    function handlePress() {}

    {if(!this.index)}
    This.index = 1;
    } else {}
    This.index ++;
    }
    var d: Number = this._parent.getNextHighestDepth ();
    this.swapDepths(d+1);
    var mcDup:MovieClip = this.duplicateMovieClip (this._name + this.index, d);
    this.startDrag ();
    f (mcDup);
    }

    }

    function handleRelease() {}

    this.stopDrag ();

    }
