BG Image Or Movieclip Repeat Inside Flash
I’m working on standalone flash project. If I open my presentation windows projector file, background image or movieclip has to tile inside flash. How to tile background image or movieclip inside flash in x axis or y axis or both axis? I’M NOT ASKING HTML BG IMAGE REPEAT.

[F8] Making A Movieclip Repeat/play Every Minute
The project is to build a clock to count down to a certain date - easy.

The clock however needs to be one of these old 'flip over' alarm clocks where the card with the number clicks over every second/minute/hour.

I set up the graphics and did the countdown. To get the flip over effect I thought the easiest would be a movieclip of the card flipping over.

there are three instances of this movieclip (hours, minutes, seconds), but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to make the clip play through evey second, minute or hour.

I would appreciate any help, or a push in the right direction - time is running out

Thanks

Asp For No Repeat Flash For Repeat Visitors?
Hi,

I have a flash animation that I want to execute in full only for first time visitors.  I would like it to jump to the end of the animation for return visitors.  I think this is easiest to do with an asp cookie by sending a parameter such as "recent_visit=yes" to the flash tag.  However, I have no experience with cookies or vbscript.  Any help is much appreciated!

Here's what's in my object tag ...

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"

Speed Of Movieclip
I have a movieclip that needs to be played at different speeds: 2 seconds, 5 seconds and 8 seconds. They need to be played at "exactly" the same speed on different computers (it's ok with a few miliseconds difference, but at the moment the 8 second movie takes between 5-9 seconds :( )

I've used setInterval to move to the next frame ever 75 milisecond... How can i make sure the movie is played at exactly 2, 5 or 8 seconds? Please help me...!

MovieClip Speed...

Controlling A Movieclip's Speed Using AS?
Hey all, been working on something all day but am truly stumped and hope you guys can lead me in the right path

Is there a way to control a given movieclip's tween/timeline speed using Actionscript? What I'm attempting to do is the have a movieclip's tween/timeline speed up if you press the Up key and slow down if you let go of it or press the Down key. I don't need it to reverse at all, it'll only go forward. I just need its speed to adjust accoring to the user's input. The movieclip being controlled only has 10 frames.

I searched around and found some similar concepts using setInterval but all of them dealt with scrolling a movieclip's contents, not necessarily advancing the its timeline. If anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Extending Movieclip Var Speed
Hi
I have created an external class for a simple movement which works fine but what i would like to do is set the speed variable from within the movie by way of a button press.....here it is,
code: class Ball extends MovieClip {
public var speed = 0;
function onEnterFrame():Void {
this._x += speed;
}
}

So what would i need to put on the button to change the speed variable?

Any help much appreciated

I'm doing an experiment, Im replacing the normal mouse cursor with a custom one, and then applying a blur filter to the custom mouse pointer whenever it is being moved. I need to somehow deteremine the speed of the cursor movieclip and tell flash what to do depending on the speed.

And I'm not really sure how to determine this....

AS2 MovieClip Speed Button... Ohh Exciting
Hope you Fellas can help...

I have a MovieClip that contains photos scrolling from right to left across the screen...

A group of 5 photos are visible on screen... 1 photo is in the center for 4 seconds... then the whole group of photos scroll to the left and another photo is in the center for 4 seconds... this continues for 60 seconds (15 photos).

I want to be able to click a thumbnail button of (for instance) photo 8 and have the MovieClip scroll faster from it's current position to photo 8... and maybe include a little easing...

So, how do I make the scrolling photos scroll faster ??

Cheers
Jimmy

Control MovieClip Playback Speed?
I have an animation that that needs to be able to complete after whatever duration I need (1 sec, 3 sec, 5 sec, etc...). To do this I would assume I need to be able to scale the playback rate of the animation... E.g. the animation will natively be authored to complete in 1 sec, and then I will scale the playback speed by (1/duration) where duration is the required duration of the animation.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks!

Flash 5 Speed In Movieclip Duplication
this is my situation:
I have a "cube" matrix containing boolean values: its dimension is 10 x 10 x 10.
I have an isometric cube movieclip: it rapresents a matrix cell.
In the render function of the matrix i clicle on the 3 dimensions X, Y, Z; if the boolen value is true then I duplicate the movieclip and I put it in the right place (right coordinates).
If I have few "true" value there's no problem....
I tried to fill my matrix only with true values... the render funcion was very slow (about 2 seconds) for my purpose (it duplicates and creates 1000 (10 x 10 x 10) movieclips).
is it a Flash limit (or Flash 5 limit!!!!!)?
are new Flash releases optimized in movieclip duplication?

thanks a lot

I do see this a lot.. that little movieclips/animations are horrendously fast in speed/animation inside flash movies, but i dont know how they do it.

Any help appreciated!

Reversing Movieclip To Play Backwards At Same Speed As It Plays Forward..
Hi all sorry for my spam post i just typed all this once and it didnt show up!!!!

here we go again..

I am new to flash and am making a page selector for the my site..it has two buttons one next and one prev. when you hit the next button it plays an animation swaps graphic to the page two graphic behind a layer to hide the swap then pops back up with the new number on it. press it again and it moves down the movie clip playing to the next stop point and showing new page three graphic.. this all works but now i want the prev button to make it so i can go back a forth between stop points in the clip, playing the movie not frame by frame but as it does when played forwards..when each new page number pops up a select button is also animated to show up with each pages link so that when say you scroll through to page 2 then hit select it goes off and loads that url for page 2 in an i frame leaving the selector at the top of the page..but i cant seam to get my url to open in an iframe in dreamweaver...am i doing this all wrong or is there a simpler way of doing this.. i must say that the animation is a rotation of the graphic is drops down like a clapper board behind a mask changes number with swap graphic then pops up again with the new page number graphic and link...

any help on reversing the playhead and making links work in iframes would be great..

Thanks in advance...

Start Non-repeat And Then Repeat?

Streaming Audio Speed No Good - Depends On Processor Or Internet Connection Speed?
we are launching a narrated, streaming flash 6.0 presentation for a client. frame rate is 20fps. here is the link:

http://www.optionaldesigngroup.com/preston

they sent us this email:

"I do not know who else this may be happening with, but when Marjorie Sanders (OC) opened to take the tour, it loaded the software (not sure why her machine didn't have it), and the video was the size of a postcard, Kathleen sounded like a little child (almost munchkin like) and was going 100 mph (so very, very fast - almost unintelligible). Can we experiment with it. Could it be because of the download - I would hope that people don't receive it that way or they will end up laughing at it (it is almost silly)."

does the streaming sync depend on the internet connection or the processor speed? i am assuming processor, and that on a kick-butt new machine it will stream faster then on a slower one.

i think the only way to counter for this is to go in and add some more frames in the narration between phrases. we don't want to lower the framerate because it will affect the flow of the tweens.

any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Problems With Speed: Loading An Animation Dynamically...reduced Speed Why? W/exampl
Im loading an animating logo dynamically into a site. The animation works in normal speed if i access it directly:
http://www.ingerreime.no/David/thegl...ches/home.html
But, when i load it dynamically into the main site, the speed reduces drastically! Click "home":

Everything is loaded dynamically, except the blue backgrounds.

Any thoughts?

Light Speed Or Warp Speed Effect.
Can someone tell me if they no how to create or have and .fla file of the stars in the star wars when ships go to warp. They kind of strech. I have been looking for this but the search tool here is not the best.

[MX04] MC Speed Vs. Document Speed
I'm an intermediate to flash, and know limited coding.
But,
I have created a flash slideshow with a preloader. However, the preloader needs to be at 12fps in order to look good, but the slideshow is at 0.4fps to look good. (It basically just flips to each image.) The controller is a sample controller in flash, and I wasn't sure how to activate the delay switch in it, so I just set the fps of the whole scene at 0.4fps.

Anyways, is there a way to have the whole slide show at 0.4fps but the preloader MC at 12fps, or sped up or something. Thanks!

has anyone done this?

Repeat A Frame?
What should I script to make a frame repeat itself? One thinks that simply putting gotoAndPlay(1); (if _currentFrame is frame 1) and that should be it. But it's not.

Randomize Without Repeat.
I may have asked this before, but lost the thread.
Is there a code to get a random number, without repeating a number twice in a row? i.e 1,8,9,3,5,6,7,4,2 not 1,1,8,9,3,5,6,7,4

Random Repeat
I've got the code for this random banner in my movie. problem is that every so often, the random number generated will be the same number twice in a row, thus getting the same banner, twice in a row.

Could one of you actionscripting wizzards please annotate my code to prevent a number from repeating itself twice in a row?

banners = new Array("1.swf", "2.swf","4.swf","5.swf","6.swf","7.swf","8.swf","9 .swf","10.swf","11.swf","12.swf","13.swf","14.swf" ,"15.swf");
function randomBanner() {
randomNumber = random(banners.length);
loadMovie(banners[randomNumber], "_root.slideshow");
}
randomBanner();

Thank You in advance

Repeat Script (FLA-REM)
I use flash remoting and I want to check my CFC every 5 or so seconds well i want it to check perpetually anyhow. Below is my script im not sure how to get this to check repeatedly. This is all on a blank layer in frame 1.

-----------------Actionscript-------------------

// Include the Required NetService class files
// Uncomment the following include for debugging purposes only:
// #include "NetDebug.as"
#include "NetServices.as"
#include "DataGlue.as"
// Connect to the Flash Remoting service
if (isGatewayOpen == null) {
isGatewayOpen = true;
// Make the Gateway connection
NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://192.168.100.54:8500/flashservices/gateway");

// Access the getPageAll method availble now through flash_cf
topfx.alerts();

How Do I Get An Action To Repeat?
well the title pretty much speaks for itself... but i would like to know how to get something like this

on (rollOver) {
_root.slider._y += movespeed;
}

to repeat itself over and over and over again until you take your mouse off of the button...

any help would be GREAT...

thanks,
CRG

How Do I Get An Action To Repeat?
how might i go about getting something like this

on (rollOver) {
_root.slider._y += movespeed;
}

to repeat non-stop until i take my mouse off of the button it's applied to...

thanks,
CRG

While() Can It Repeat Symbols?
Is there a way to repeat a mc a certain number of times based on a variable? i assume i would use while() to do this but im not sure how i would repeat the movieclip? also, if i can do that, how could i send a set variable to each mc.

Repeat... STOP
I have a basic script that picks a random number, between (user picks), but I also want it to be able to pick 30 random numbers at once. I don't know how to go about this, what would you recomend... (the # comes from a text input field. (that can be changed.)

On(mouseDown) Needs To Repeat Or Something
I am making a game that has an automatic weapon AK47.... i want it so the user can hold down the mouse button and move the Aimer (mouse) to multiple objects and kill those objects. now i can make the gun shoot automatic, but if i hold down the mouse button it will only kill 1 object per click.. i need it to kill multiple objects per click... here is some code

onClipEvent(mouseDown) {
if (_root.currentgun == "ak47") {
_root.ak47.gstatus = "fire";
if (_root.ak47.ammo > 0) {
if (this.hitTest(_root.mark)) {
_root.mark.movespeed = 0;
_root.mark.mstatus = "dead";
}
}
}
}

so yeah that only lets me kill 1 guy even though the gun is firing like mad... now there are no bullets involved to do the hit test with, and would prefer to keep it that way.. While loops just give me an infinite loop error...

thanks
