Alarm Clock Please Help
Hi all,

I am trying to develop a simple analog clock with set alarm facility.
First time i am trying to develop a scripting logic on myown.
and i am stuck

Please help to develop a logic or code!!
this clock run as ususal with system tracked date which is fine.
Now to have set alarm facility i made another movie in this movie i am tracking user inputs for hours and minute on pressing set button
(this button is on same movie)and not on main time line.)
that value is getting caputured in main time line with a code as belown

(release) {
if (amin eq "10") {
/:amincap = 10;
} else if (amin eq "20") {
/:amincap = "20";
} else if (amin eq "30") {
/:amincap = "30";
} else if (amin eq "40") {
/:amincap = "40";
} else if (amin eq "50") {
/:amincap = "50";
minx = "50";
} else if (amin eq "60") {
/:amincap = "60";
}
}

now on main time line in i am writing another code

if (_root.setalarm.:amincap eq "50") {
tellTarget ("_root.sound") {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}
}

where
setalarm is movie's instance name
amincap is dynamic text field
sound is instance name for movie which carries sound file in it.

"well this above bull**** is not working" so what wrong?

Alarm Clock
I'm currently working on a cartoon and am in need of a ringing (bell type) alarm clock (not any digital or electrical sounding ones). If anyone has that type of alarm clock and could record it for me or just has a .wav file of that type of an alarm clock and would be willing to let me have a copy, royalty free, then I would be extremely grateful...

thanks, Pedro

p.s. I have tried searching the soundfx section of this site and have had no luck so far...

Alarm Clock
Hi... am new to Flash, having lots of problems in it (aargghh...), thinking of making an alarm clock with a message poping up at the set time. Any clues? Ciao~

Alarm Clock Help
Hello Flash_y people !

My problem is to jump to the next frame or any frame number as soon as the input textfield equals the time of the clock without the use of a button or anything likewise.
I've 2 textfields on the stage, one with the time and another input textfield to input any time I like, and as soon as the time I inputted equals the time shown on the other textfield it should jump to another frame.
For ex. if my clock shows 12:00(for argument sake) and I input 12:00, then it should take me to another frame. How should I proceed with my code.
Iam relative new to flash and what I 've programmed so far is this...

// the first textfield displaying the time
myTime = new Date();
hour = myTime.getHours();
if (length(hour)<2) {
hour = "0"+hour;
}
minute = myTime.getMinutes();
if (length(minute)<2) {
minute = "0"+minute;
}
uhrDigital = hour+":"+minute; // end of the 1st textfield

if (alarm == uhrDigital) { // how should I proceed from here.....
gotoAndPlay("wakeme"); // the name of my frame
}

Thanx 4 your help..........hope I am clear enough

Alarm Clock

I don't have the final frame done yet, but it would be frame 4 as far as I can tell. Thanks

hi! all

am working on a project for customizable World Time clock and alarm clock....
have attached both of the flas in the following link of what i've done in the files...

http://www.samdesignstudio.flashmaster.ru/clocks.zip

1)Alarm Clock - in which i've to set the alarm by inserting the time..

and also what i need is to make the alarm setting in such a manner that if a user sets
the alarm and closes the browser after setting the alarm......and when he reopens the
browser then the alarm should be activated as set by him earlier....mean that alarm setting
should not change and it should be functional normally.

2) World Times - in it i've created 6 clocks both analog and digital ones.
The first clock is to be set as a default clock from the list of countries displaying from
the menu..
The analog clocks are working fine and showing the timings properly...but
the in the digital clock the time goes beyond 24 hours say 25 hours or so....

Can you please go through the both the flas and help me out in solving the problems

Countdown Clock (sync With Server Clock In .asp) PLEASE HELP
I used Senocular's awesome countdown clock tutorial found here:

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown2.htm

but I need to figure out how to sync it to my server's clock (I understand I must do this in a .asp file and then load that into flash).

Using vbscript this is what I tried, but obviously it doesn't work I think I may need to convert it completely to seconds first before bringing it into flash:

<%
Dim MyTime
MyTime=now()
response.Write("time="&MyTime)
%>

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks so much!

Detecting Clock Wise And Anti Clock Wise Rotation
hey troops!

nube's first post.

can you tell me if it is possible to detect if an object is rotating anti clockwise or not?

at present i get x,y co-ords and use the code below to rotate it which is fine. now i could write an if statement to check if rotation is negative or positive but because rotation can be negative and positive when rotating clockwise and anti clockwise this wouldnt work.

any ideas?

Code:
theAngle = Math.atan2(diffy , diffx);

this._rotation = theAngle*360/(2*Math.PI);

updateAfterEvent();
cheers in advance

Hi, ive got this flash clock, which tells local GMT time, im trying to modify it so that it tells the time for another timezone which is 5h 30m ahead.

i've tried this

hourrotate = (hours + 5) * 30;

and

minrotate = (mins + 30) * 6;

but the hourhand messes up for some reason.

here's the code, can someone please help me modify it.

_____________________

onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{
mydate = new Date();
GMToffset = mydate.getTimezoneOffset();
hours = mydate.getUTCHours();

Looking For Flash Clock
I am looking for the Flash clock that is being distributed in phpNuke distributions. To see the one I mean, please take a look at my site - www.ukmartin.com

The SWF file is being freely distributed, and being GPL licence, I assume it came from a "free" source. Unfortunately, the FLA file doesn't come with the distribution. The problem with it is that my clock is Black, and I'd prefer it to be red or blue.

Has anyone seen teh FLA file for this clock on their travels? If so I'd be grateful to hear from you.

Thanks

Flash Clock
I'm making a flash site and I need some help on something. Okay so basically I'm planning on adding a clock to the site, that displays the same info as your computer's clock. Pretty simple. But then, I want certain aspects of the site to change, relative to the time. Would it be possible to sort of give the clock an instance name, then add some actionscript that basically says 'if the time is past so-and-so, display this swf. If not, then display this.' Or something? So I want two timezones, day and night. Can anyone give me some help or point me in the right direction?

Flash And PC Clock
Using: AS 3.0 - CS3

I'm looking either for help or a point in the right direction towards a tutorial on this.

My aim is to have a flash file that is reading the users clock and time, which would in turn show a certain object based on the time.

As an example: You have a collection of photos of a city from one perspective over the course of a day. With this you capture lighting and shadows over the day. If a user views the file at 10pm it would be night in the photo. If they were to view it at 12 noon it would be sunny and bright.

I've got the image and graphics part figured out and completed. As for the code to drive this and primarily code interacting or reading from the User's clock is something else altogether.

Any ideas?

Flash Clock...
I used this tutorial to create a simple flash clock.

The trouble is, as you will see in the flash clock example on the first page on the tutorial, the clock has a problem with the minutes, hours and seconds hands when it gets to the "58 minute" position.

For some reason, the Seconds hand always skips the 59th second, going straight from the 58th second position to the 0 second position.

And the same happens with the Minutes and Hours hands. When it gets to the 58th minute, the Minutes hands stays there for two minutes and then skips to the 0 minute position.

The clock uses this code:

---
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// Gets the time information and stores in MyDate
MyDate = new Date();
// Assigns values individually
hour = MyDate.getHours();
minute = MyDate.getMinutes();
second = MyDate.getSeconds();
// Calculates position for hours hand
if (hour> 11) {
hour = hour-12;
}
hour = hour*5;
movement = minute/12;
hour = int(hour+movement);
// Moves hours hand
with (_root.Clock.Hours) {
gotoAndStop(hour) + 1;
}
// Moves minutes hand
with (_root.Clock.Minutes) {
gotoAndStop(minute) + 1;
}
// Moves seconds hand
with (_root.Clock.Seconds) {
gotoAndStop(second) + 1;
}
}
---

At the end of each of the Hour, Minute and Second hand code, the "+ 1" code seems to do nothing at all... I've tried changing it to "+5" for the minutes, to test a it and it does nothing.

Is there any way to fix this and get this clock working properly?

Thanks.

Flash Second Hand - Clock
Does anyone know if there is a way to make flash pause for a seconmd and then increment the angle of rotation of a movieclip "second hand" by 6 degrees - this would simulate the second hand of a clock.

I have the script to make the second hade rotate but need to put in some feature that waits for a second before adding another 6 degrees to the rotation.

Frame 1
angle=0;
frame2
secondhand._rotation=angle;
frame3
angle =angle+6;
gotoAndPlay(2);

i need to put a pause in between frames 2 and 3 to get the one second delay. I have been trying with getTimer(), but am not to sure how to get the desired effect

Any help would be gratefully recieved

Countdown Clock In Flash 5/MX
Hello everyone,

I was wondering how to write a ActionScript that counts down to a certain date. I have no problem writing the script only using hours, minutes, seconds... But lets say that the countdown should start on a 120 days until event x...How do I define Months, seeing that they do not all have the same amount of days in them? What would be the easiest way to go about this?

Thanks already for any answers,

Why Flash Clock Is 1hr Slow?
Im pretty sure it has nothing to do with the AS, so why would a clock in flash display 1hr slow? Someone has to already come across this minor aggrivation. Would it be just my puter settings?

Heres the script if youre curious:

Clock In Flash Problem
I have this actionscript on a movieclip that is a dynamic text. Everything works fine except when it gets to 12:00 A.M. it displays 0:00 A.M. instead, until it gets to 1:00 A.M. and everything is fine again. What is wrong with the code that makes it do this. I can't figure it out.

function getTime() {
var time = new Date();
var hour = time.getHours();
var minute = time.getMinutes();
var temp = ""+((hour>12) ? hour-12 : hour);
temp += ((minute<10) ? ":0" : ":")+minute;
temp += (hour>=12) ? " P.M." : " A.M.";
return temp;
}
var time;
time = getTime();

Thanks,

Flash Based Clock?
Hi,

I'm pretty new to Flash... just started playing around with Flash MX. I haven't yet done anything with Actionscript, but I've been asked to help out on a project which I believe would require it.

So I wanted to ask you guys if the following is even possible with Flash. I need to make a clock with Flash. But instead of using a minute hand, it would display the current minutes with a gradually changing animation. For instance, a growing tree... at 5:00, it's a seed in the ground. At 5:30, a small tree. By 5:59, a fully grown tree.

I guess there wouldn't really be any animation per se, but rather 60 different frames. I would need to detect when a new minute within the current hour has begun, and jump to the next frame.

The main question in my mind is whether it is possible, using Actionscript perhaps, to determine the current time of day, and trigger the "jump" to the next frame at the correct moment. And even more importantly, whether I would be able to deal with events such as the user reloading the page, and such.

Thanks for your help!

-SA

P.S. - I've already implemented a similar thing using only HTML and JavaScript... at the end of every minute the page refreshes itself with an updated minute display.

Flash Digital Clock
I'm new to flash BTW [_flashDumb.iWould = say], I made a clock based on the tutorial by Adrian Wherry
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Ac...-591/more1.php
(Thank you very much Adrian). And I want to make something different.
I just want to show one element of time, say...... seconds. I modified the dynamic text to show just 2 digits (:00):

// Script to get the time string from the newDate object
newDate = new Date();
mySecond = newDate.getSeconds();
// If the hour display is less than 2 digits, add an extra 0
if (length(mySecond)<2)
{
mySecond = "0" + mySecond;
}
// Space out the HH:MM:SS
displayTime = mySecond+ ":";

......the second frame in the tute has the same except an additional line of gotoFrame(1);

I tried modifying the AS took out the parts where.... hr, and min are called/used/coded..... whathaveyou..... And I'm left with what I think will do what I want. Low an behold, it ain't working.

I know there's more or less to that...... Any ideas?

P.S.: Also I wanted to make individual dynamic texts, say if I wanted to show the hr, and min in different colours or shades, sizes, etc. ......[copy+paste & replace the variable on the dynm. text?]

Clock Scripting (Flash 5)
I have the clock all set up, the minute hand and second hand are working perfectly. Now I want to incorporate sounds when it reaches a certain time (Ex.
