• Noob on chain and Movie Clip symbols question

  So, I have a table containing the names of occurrence of some movie clip symbols... I want to catch a random and perform operations above.
  
  So, I put a table with string names and grab one at random.
  
  var log_array:Array = ["truckStop_mc", "blackJack_mc"];
  Index number: var = Math.round (Math.random () * log_array.length);
  
  I then used track to make sure that I'm grabbing the name correctly... it is for me the names...
  
  trace (log_array [index]);
  
  I then try set the x and y property
  
  log_array [index] .x = 399,4;
  log_array [index] = - 3 there.
  
  I get this error when running:
  Cannot create the x on string property
  
  I tried to store only the clips themselves as objects but it wrong as well.
  
  var log_array:Array = [truckStop_mc, blackJack_mc];
  
  Is there a way to store the objects themselves in the table, or is it possible to convert this string to the object.
  
  Something like
  var obj:Object = getObject (log_array [index]);
  obj.x =...
  
  any help would be great... I was blocked a bit now.
  
  Thank you

  you need to store the instance name of the MC as you have in the second version here, as in:

  var log_array:Array = [truckStop_mc, blackJack_mc];

  ... However the RND formula should be adjusted to:

  Index number: var = Math.round (Math.random () * (log_array.length-1));

  ... And when you set properties on an MC XY, you need a stroke of underscores, differeing from the XY of an object property, as in:

  log_array [index] ._x = 399,4;
  log_array [index] ._y = - 3;

• [JSFL] Have a name binding class by name of movie clip

  Hello

  I have a few question doing this. As I do this for some time, I wanted to try a jsfl script instead of doing it manually every time.

  My library will look like this every time.

  

  What I would like: ave in the end:
  

  

  What I want is simple, I want to just take the name of each clip and paste it into the link attribute.

  If the name was easy enough, but as it was the full path, I needed to cut it, so I used the substring.

  But then, despite my attempts, I can't paste the name into the binding attribute.

  It won't take my last sentence: "fl.getDocumentDOM (). library.items [i] .className = newClassName;

  Any ideas?

  Here is the code:

  function init()

  {

  fl.outputPanel.clear ();

  var i = fl.getDocumentDOM (). library.items.length;

  var lib = fl.getDocumentDOM () .library;.

  While (i)-

  {

  If (fl.getDocumentDOM (). library.items [i] .itemType == "movie clip")

  {

  getName = fl.getDocumentDOM () var. library.items [i] .name;

  newClassName = getName.substring (20, getName.length);

  FL.trace (newClassName);

  () fl.getDocumentDOM. library.items [i] .className = newClassName;

  }

  }

  }

  init();

  Finally got my code works with a few more lines.

  Well, I just needed to add "item.linkageExportForAS = true;". Of course...

  function init()

  {

  var i = fl.getDocumentDOM (). library.items.length;

  var lib = fl.getDocumentDOM () .library;.

  While (i)-

  {

  var point = lib.items [i];

  If (lib.items [i] .itemType is "movie clip")

  {

  if(Item.linkageExportForAS==false)

  {

  getName var = lib.items [i] .name;

  newClassName = getName.substring (20, getName.length);

  item.linkageExportForAS = true;

  item.linkageClassName = newClassName;

  }

  }

  }

  }

  init();

• 2 problems with CS6 - Movie Clip not seen & interpolations added to the library

  Occasional user of Flash. I need to edit a project which began in CS6, so I prefer to leave in this version. Once I started to edit the project, I noticed two things happening. Video clips animate not when previewing in the program. However, the Movie Clips animate properly in the preview publish and published format. The second question, each classic Tween I create is added to the library. I don't remember these two questions when originally, I worked on the project. Is there something I could have changed (preferably, option, etc.) to cause these issues? TIA

  There the scripts inside the movieclip? The instance is defined as a movieclip or a chart?

  Something in the way, as long as you have not used the OS TLF or IK, you should be able to work on the file in CC and still open ok in CS6 later.

• Question of efficiency - cutting Clips

  Question of efficiency - cutting Clips.

  So I was wondering if there is a better way to cut my clips that I don't use. Basically, I often have big long clips of raw footage I shot at usable segments. Every raw file can be more than an hour long and have 100s of small segments of live, often comments that I find I'm cutting some long pauses in the talk and other stuff until I have a clip ready to send to the main edition.

  Anyway, often I'm zoomed in so I can change it, and I press C, will make a cut... then make another one a little further upward, press V, click the segment that I just cut... Tap on delete and then click on move the rest of the raw video to the left to get where I made the first cut, often needing to zoom in well and then insert it again to continue editing.

  Is there a better way to do it? So, I did not need to zoom in and out all the time... there at - there a way to remove a piece of Visual form the sequence and have the attached automatically to 'fill the gap' for me?

  -Thank you

  Shift + del will ripple delete segments.

• Create a button in a movie clip for ipad

  I am trying to create a button in a clip for an ipad app (a button next to a slide show, the slide show page is a clip.
  This is the code that I have tried. Button = nextbutton, video clip = artworkmovie. I want just the button to advance the movie clip an image.

  nextbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, nextClickHandler);

  function nextClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

  {

  artworkmovie.nextFrame ();

  }

  It works very well from the scene, but if I have the button 'next' in the film 'artworkmovie' I get the error "Line19 1120 access of undefined property nextbutton. (Line19 is "nextbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, nextClickHandler);") How can I create a path to the button? I tried artworkmovie.nextbutton and that has not worked.

  Sorry for this one basic question and thank you for your help.

  artworkmovie.nextButton should work.  Make sure you have the name of button assigned to each keyframe in the movieclip.

• Do away with button movie clip

  Hi all

  Thank you very much for watching my post and I hope you can answer my question

  Basically, I have a 3D interactive project only when the viewer clicks on the window and drag either right or left, then it pops up as they spin a 3D model, I have given out in Maya. What they do moves the mouse over the x axis that causes the clip to play backward or forward.

  The code I got from this site works like a dream! I even made sure that as they click a button depending on whether he goes to the other almost identical movie clip and he will leave the same frame as the previous video clip let go. I'm rather proud of myself for the moment

  However - on the second clip almost identical (mc_2), it has some tags on the images. And what I really want to do is, press the mouse for labels to disappear and when the viewer has finished breakfast through the time line with the mouse move and break the mouse, who reappear labels!

  Looks a lot like now here: http://BMC.Erin.utoronto.ca/~Enid/interactivethyroidectomy/

  So, I worked on this code which works perfectly in a small test project I've done. I put this on a button called my_btn and then made a label and this changed to a clip called my_mc and it all worked perfect

  on {(press)

  _root.my_mc._visible = false;

  }

  on (release) {}

  _root.my_mc._visible = true;

  }

  But what I really need to do is for my previous movieclip, mc_2, use the code above. However, if I add anywhere amoungst my actionscript previous coding in the mc_2 layer, then the viewer can no longer scrub through the timeline more. Clearly this code above is affected my previous code. which is:

  Stop();

  mc_2.stop ();

  var startX:Number;

  var startFrame:Number;

  var changeDistance:Number;

  var travelDistance:Number;

  mc_2.onPress = pressHandler;

  mc_2.onRelease = releaseHandler;

  mc_2.onreleaseoutside = releaseHandler;

  function pressHandler (): Void {}

  startX = mc_2._xmouse;

  startFrame = mc_2._currentframe;

  this.onMouseMove = moveHandler;

  }

  function releaseHandler (): Void {}

  this.onMouseMove = null;

  }

  function moveHandler (): Void {}

  changeDistance = mc_2._xmouse - startX;

  travelDistance = startFrame + changeDistance;

  If (travelDistance > mc_2._totalframes) {}

  mc_2.gotoAndStop (travelDistance % mc_2._totalframes);

  } ElseIf (travelDistance < 0) {}

  mc_2.gotoAndStop (mc_2._totalframes + (travelDistance % mc_2._totalframes));

  } else {}

  mc_2.gotoAndStop (travelDistance);

  }

  }

  Just so I'm ultra clear for the various layers etc.

  On stage 1, I have four layers

  Actions, buttons, clips, video and background

  In two, it has the above actionscript and then mc_2

  Inside of the mc_2 are 100 images from a view of 360-degree images of a shoulder of Maya

  in the top layer of the images, I have labels - one of which ive converted a clip called my_mc to this post.

  So what I have to do is add somewhere in the ActionScript for the mc_2 who, with all the mouse, presses and releases for him also make a specific mc (my_mc) invisible when the mouse is pressed and re appear when the mouse is released.

  I hope that makes sense.

  I thank very you much for your help in advance.

  CAT

  If you want to target something inside the mc_2, then just target mc_2 in the path...

  mc_2.my_mc._visible = false;

• Help make a hyperlink of movie clip

  I have several components of different movie clip in a flash file I need hyperlink to different addresses. For the life of me I can't understand how to add a url to these objects. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  TAD HAS.

  Edit: I should add that I see an invisible like button being a solution. My question would be is the best way to achieve this?

  then use navigateToURL():

  yourbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, f);

  function f (e: Event) {}

  navigateToURL (new URLRequest ("http://www.adobe.com"));

  Hi ooba,.

  In fact, moveTo is part of the drawing API. It is used to move the
  design of cursor on a specific location without drawing. I do not believe
  moveTo was used to move a clip (or any user interface for this object
  question). In ActionScript 2.0, you must update the properties '_x', and 'FLF '.
  (as kglad has pointed out), and in ActionScript 3.0, they are 'x' and 'y '.
  respectively. Unless you have your own "moveto" method, you will not be able to
  It allows to move anything, even video clips.

  Kind regards

• Say a Movie Clip to play/stop on the main timeline?

  I have a main timeline that has a movieclip called "clock". At some point in the main timeline, I want the movieclip to play and at another time, I want him to stop. I can't get the script to control the movieclip.
  
  Any tips?
  
  I thank very you much for your time.

  Large. Thank you.

  I set the stop on the first frame of the main timeline for all the movie clips and then when I want to play, they play. Wonderful.

  Thanks a lot for your time for such a basic question.

• Images of iPod touch - volume of the .mov clips

  Hello

  When I use an iPod touch pictures, the .mov clips sound volume is too low, even if I turn as hard as possible in Final Cut. How can I get stronger?

  Thank you!

  Unfortunately, it really isn't that you can do. You could make a new project and put just the clips that need to be more strong in there, then set volume as loud as it goes, then export than as a video, and then import that new video in your regular project (except that it is strong this time) and you can increase the volume at maximum again. If all goes well, which should help. However, the quality may be slightly reduced.

• Cannot move clips to the timeline.

  Mac OSX: 10.11.2

  Premiere Pro: 10.4.0

  I had problems with Premiere Pro on 10.3 and 10.4. At this point, I just want to get either version working.is curr

  10.3 hangs at startup despite uninstalling all my Red Giant Software

  10.4 opens but when I try to move clips no matter where it just doesn't happen. Cannot move bins clips or timeline. And when I opened an old project, I can't move clips autour on the timeline even if they are already there.

  Any help is greatly appreciated. I know there are many of you who know what it's like to not be able to get the software you paid for work. It's frustrating say the least!

  Removal of the preferences has worked. So far, 10.4 works!

• 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.).

• AS3: see the hide the elements of the movie clip, single button array.

  Hello and please forgive my Noobdity I teach myself AS3 and stuck on what are obviously the basics.

  I did the simple animations for years without using any AS3 at all, the time has come to take seriously.

  I read the daylights out of all reference documents Adobe now but I am stuck on this task.

  I have 4 objects of movie clip whose visibility I control with two buttons.

  First button, two of these visible clips and the other two will make visible = false

  For example: Mc1 and Mc2 > visible, Mc3 and Mc4 > visible = false

  The second button run the same function but in reverse

  Eg: Mc1 and Mc2 > visible = false, Mc3 and Mc4 > visible

  I've determined correctly or incorrectly reading endless and looking for a table should be the best way to do it.

  I may have to use the child feature add but * shrugs, I'm lost atmo

  I've been blunders on the code for the first of two simple buttons.

  I start slowly form a mindmap what should be done, but it's early days.

  Here is my code and please feel free to

  Last attempt tries to use the mouse on the trigger to control the visible state of the second two clips.

  var wcArray:Array = [myMovieclip1, myMovieclip2];

  var acArray:Array = [myMovieclip3, myMovieclip4];

  acComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _acComp);

  internal _acComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans acArray)}

  Item.visible =! item.visible;

  }

  }

  acComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, _wcComp);

  internal _wcComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans wcArray)}

  Item.visible =! item.visible = false;

  }

  }

  Currently run 1050 error: impossible to assign a value, not reference.

  The text in blue works with 2 clips of film acArray of course, where the attempt to use the mouse on.

  Any advice on the solution or the best method to implement would be greatly appreciated.

  For what you're trying to make a table is more complication than a solution, you have already divided in two arrays anyway probably due to this tax... and have two buttons to do isn't necessary, but you may already be knowing that since you have only code for one of them in any case.

  All you need is a button that activates the visible properties to their opposites.

  var array: Array = [myMovieclip2, myMovieclip3, myMovieclip1, myMovieclip4];

  myMovieClip1.visible = myMovieclip2.visible = false;  or the other two... depending on what initially as invisible

  btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _acComp);

  function _acComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans tableau)}

  Item.visible =! item.visible;

  }

  }

  LF, you must have two buttons to do the opposite, as you say, then clicking on buttons must end up affecting all the buttons, no not only one of the tables you have done.  If each button should do what you say, then you should not use the! operator since that can go the opposite of what you intend, so you must assign the desired state.

  var wcArray:Array = [myMovieclip1, myMovieclip2];

  var acArray:Array = [myMovieclip3, myMovieclip4];

  acComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _acComp);

  function _acComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans acArray)}

  Item.Visible = false;

  }

  for each {(var item2:MovieClip in wcArray)

  Item2.Visible = true;

  }

  }

  wcComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _wcComp);

  function _wcComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans wcArray)}

  Item.Visible = false;

  }

  for each {(var item2:MovieClip in acArray)

  Item2.Visible = true;

  }

  }
