Timer Controlled MCs?
I think this is very simple but I can't seem to produce the correct code. I have 5 mc's and I want them to rotate forward with swapDepth every 20 seconds or so. I have the swapDepth working but I need a way to tell the mc's to run there internal animation and swap to the front in timed sequence. (I dont want to use long tweens because obvioulsy that sucks)
Basicly every 2O seconds I would like the mc's to swaps depth to the front and play that mc's animation. Help?

Timer Controlled Events
I'm creating a small flash file with a sunrise and sunset. Now, I want these to happen every 30 seconds but I can't, for the life of me, work out how to do this using a timer function. Has anyone got any ideas?
What I need is after the first 30 seconds then the variable timeSunset = 1 and a further 30 seconds after that makes the variable timeSunrise = 1. This process needs to be kept going around in a loop with a 30 second gap between sunrise and sunset.

Help With Simple Timer Controlled Function
Hey there,
I'm trying to detect if the user has not moved the mouse in my flash menu for 5 seconds, and if so, reset the menu. I stumbled upon the following:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/...=00000075.html
(note the corrected code in the comments...)
... and this is as far as I've gotten. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Code:
navReset = function () { /* I'm ok with this part - just need to write it */ }
var minuteTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 5);
minuteTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, navReset());
minuteTimer.start();
onMouseMove = function() { minuteTimer.start();} // will this even restart the timer ?

Timer Controlled Movie Clips
Hey folks,
I have a movie clip that I want to play every 30-45 seconds. Basically it will start, run through the movie clip and stop and wait 30-45 seconds before it starts again.
Can anyone point me to a tutorial or know how to write a script to do this. I looked some stuff up but am having trouble coming up with a solution. The name of the movie clip is: lights_mc
Thanks a lot!

Timer Controlled Color Transition Effect?
I have a site that I'm putting together. The site is basically one large flash file, (760x560), and I'm having some trouble with one specific component.
I have a graphic that I want to change colors gradually over a specific amount of time. I have specific colors that I need to to change, so I can't invoke any randomness. I'd love to be able to do it all with actionscript. If all else fails, I'll just tween the whole thing, but I know there's a way to do this.
HELP! SOMEONE!!!

Difference Between Timer.stop() And Timer.reset()?
Hello,
What is the difference between Timer.stop() and Timer.reset() functions because it seems that the 2 functions do the same thing? I image Timer.stop() to stop the timer and when Timer.start() is called the timer starts from where it stopped. For example, if I have a 3 sec. timer (3000 ms). If I stop the timer after 2.5 sec. and start the timer again, I would expect the timer to expire/trip within .5 sec. Is this a correct assumption?
Thanks,
Nilang

Timer - Not Timer Class, But Time Taken To Do Certain Events
So i'm making a little game and want to know how to start a timer and display the number of milliseconds between the start and finish of two different events. I do not want to run a function after 5000 milliseconds or whatever, just record the length of time taken to say click two buttons.
Basically a stopwatch.
I saw the getTimer(); function but i'm not sure of how to use it or if that is what i need.
Once again, thanks for your time.

Running Timer And Timer With Offset
Hello all,
I'm trying to set up two timers in that dare feed the time in minutes and seconds from the server.
Basically, I've got a master running timer in seconds and minutes but also want to have a second cloned timer that is feed some seconds via flashVars to add to the the master time.
Both of these timers once set by the sever time feed in, and with one being offset, are called every second by a setInterval function call so they count up.
Setting up the master running timer isn't a problem but with my coding skills is a little messy..
Code:
_global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes = 59;
_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds = 55;
if (_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds>0 && _global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds<59) {
_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds++;
} else {
_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds = 0;
_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds++;
if (_global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes>=0 && _global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes<=58) {
_global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes++;
} else if (_global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes>=59 && _global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds>=0) {
_global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes = 0;
}
}
if (_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds<10) {
_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds = "0"+_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds;
}
_root.runningTime.text = "v"+_global.masterRunningTimeInMinutes+":"+_global.masterRunningTimeInSeconds;
Ideally I wanted to to get the master running time to display MM:SS so if anyone can help with that that would be great!
I suppose the real problem I'm having is is setting up the pattern for determining the cloned time with the offset.
This is becoming a real headache but if anyone can help I would really appreciate it! Basically I just wanted to have the running time with the cloned time always a certain amount of seconds ahead.
Many thanks, amp3

MC Controlled By Buttons
hi
in my scene i got 7 buttons that play a headline for each, should disappear when next headline comes in.
every headline is a MC (MovieClip), assigned with instance name (u1, u2,...). this mc is a couple of frames long. on frame one i have a stop action on an empty keyframe. the fadein ani is from frame 2 - frame 21. on frame 21 i have a stop action. from frame 22 till endframe i have my fadeout ani.
in my scene, on each button, i have an action that tells my headline-mc s to play if currentframe == frame21, else stop (i.e.:to tell mc s to play fadein-ani / fadeout-ani).
somehow they don`t fadeout / disappear , makin me crazy

You will see in the bottom left corner there is a flash movie that when you put your mouse over one of the titles say "corporate" it plays the movie associated to that title, and when you mouse off, it cycles through all the logos. This is the same for the other titles "Education", "Government" etc.
How would this be achieved, could someone please give me some help!

Anyone know what I've done wrong? I have 5 pages and have made sure all the buttons have been named correctly and so on.

Playlist Controlled Into Non-playlist Controlled?
Hi,
I have made a mp3 player based upon (but with my own design) this tutorial:
http://www.thegoldenmean.com/techniq...yer_v2_01.html
But as in my original design there is no room (or need) for a visual playlist, I want to get rid of it. I want my player to be completely controllable by these four buttons: prev/stop/play-pause/next, instead of having to double click in the playlist to enable playing of a song.
(Basically the player exists ONLY out of these four buttons, visually).
Is there some kind of standard/procedure/tutorial for turning playlist controlled mp3-players into button-controlled mp3-players?
Does anyone wanna give it a go? All tips would be appreciated as I have unsuccessfully tried it myself for ..many many hours now.
I've attached the .fla as well as a zipfile containing 3 other files (songList.xml.php, arrays.php, id3v2.php) which should be placed in a folder called "tracks" (in that same folder mp3 files should be place in order to test the player)
regards,
M.T.Pilot
(n.b. I used flash MX pro and actionscript 1.0 for this)

Controlled Loop?
I know the most basic command in ActionScripts to keep my
Flash video from looping (stop();). Can I apply that command if I want
to end on a scene used previously in the movie (as in the example in
the
notes)? How does that work such that my movie doesn't stop after the
initial use of that scene and go no further?
Ideally, I would like to use the same scene as an opening and closing
sequence to my movie. However, after the second use, I would like to
have text saying "The End." Is there an if/then statement that defines
if this has played before or something?

Key Controlled Navigation
I want to make an interface that can be controlled by the mouse or by the arrow keys - the only simlat to what I'm trying to achieve is the game Colin McRae.
Lets say I have 3 buttons. If I move my mouse on any of them it gets an mouse over effect.
What I want to do is to combine this with the arrow keys that should be able to jump between the buttons - and the one selected is in the "over" state - to select it I press return.
How on earth is this achieved?
Would be more than grateful on any tips or hints!
Also posted on actionscript.org without any luck.....

Help W. Timeline Controlled Mcs
I've been successful controlling my movie clips from the main timeline however I recently entered a text movie clip into the timeline and I cannot figure out for the life of me how to control the movie from the timeline. I can get it to play, but the movie stops there.
I've been using:
Code:
stop();
_root.gotoAndPlay("framelabel");
but with the text effect where it uses so much AS I dont know what to put to make it continue on to the next frame label when its completed.
Code:
stop();
//
textvar = textvar.split("");
//
this.letter_mc._visible = false;
//
numberOfLetters = 0;
Xsetter = this.letter_mc._x;
thisTimeline = this;
//
buildLetters = function () {
if (numberOfLetters<textvar.length) {
//
duplicateMovieClip(letter_mc, "letter_"+numberOfLetters, numberOfLetters+1);
//
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].shadow_txt_mc.textbox.text = textvar[numberOfLetters];
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].top_txt2_mc.textbox.text = textvar[numberOfLetters];
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].top_txt_mc.textbox.text = textvar[numberOfLetters];
//
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].shadow_txt_mc.textbox.autoSize = true;
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].top_txt2_mc.textbox.autoSize = true;
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].top_txt_mc.textbox.autoSize = true;
//
thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters]._x = Xsetter;
//
Xsetter += thisTimeline["letter_"+numberOfLetters].top_txt_mc.textbox._width;
numberOfLetters++;
//
} else {
clearInterval(letterInterval);
}
};
//
letterIntervel = setInterval(buildLetters, 110);
I've defied the pass variable and just freeformed my text in on the MC frame AS. if someone could help me figure out how to make this movie perhaps, onClipEvent.stop and go to the designated frame label I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

One Button, Two MC's Controlled
I have one MC with the following AS:stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (rewind == true) {
prevFrame();
}
}
_root.about_btn.onRollOver = function() {
rewind = false;
play();
}
_root.about_btn.onRollOut = function() {
rewind = true;
}This works fine. However, I want the button "about_btn" to also control a second MC, but flip the rewind properties, like so:stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (rewind == true) {
prevFrame();
}
}
_root.about_btn.onRollOver = function() {
rewind = true;
}
_root.about_btn.onRollOut = function() {
rewind = false;
play();
}but no such luck with the second MC. Even if I apply the same AS code to the second MC, it still won't work. Thoughts?

Controlled Chain Reaction?
I am handling a dangerous piece of script here: I would like to create some sort of chain reaction where one Mc gets cloned then these two have two other duplicates and so on.
I am struggling with the fact that my code inherited from one MC to the next causes an uncontrolled cloning frenzy. How can I do this in a controlled way without the code crashing on me?
I noticed that a lot of the duplicates carry the same name. How can I prevent this?
Code:
///onload Movieclip
Movieclip.prototype.createDupe=function(Clip){
i=Math.floor(Math.random()*3);
if(_root.Dupe10==undefined){
var thisDupe = Number(Clip._name.substr(4));
newDupe= thisDupe+Direction[i];
///duplicate and name MC Dupe
duplicateMovieClip(Clip,"Dupe"+ newDupe, newDupe);
///put the new dupe in place
_root["Dupe"+ newDupe]._x = _root.Clip._x+XPosition[i];
_root["Dupe"+ newDupe]._y = _root.Clip._x+YPosition[i];
}else{
break;
}
};

Subnavigation Controlled In HTML
Hi guys,
I'm very bad at actionscripting so I'll ask you guys:
I found a site that controlled its subnavigation via HTML with this code:
EMBED id="flashmovie" src="./swf/nav/diensten_sub.swf?mNav=2&sNav=2&basehref=http://www.usmedia.nl/"
I can see in this code they send variables to the swf diensten_sub.swf (?mNav=2&sNav=2). What does this do exactly, and how? Are they pointing the swf to a certain scene?
I'm creating a side I dont want to make in frames, but when pushing a button it loads a new HTML with the same swf, but the button has to stay highlighted. Usually it reloads the swf and it starts at the beginning...
any ideas on how to do this?

randomNumber = random(randomClips.length);
loadMovie(randomClips[randomNumber], "_root.mtClip");
}
randomBackground();

Here the window wouldn't have a toolbar, menubar, and wouldnt be resizeable.
Is it possible to do this in flash?

Controlled Image Transition
This one has got me frustrated, and I'm sure there is probably a simple solution which is even more annoying...
Heres where I am at: I have an interface design that will move up and down to targeted postitions with the click of a button (simple enough), along with that moves a scrolling background that changes the image (through a fading transition) also when you click one of the buttons (again simple stuff). Heres where my problem comes in. At the moment when you click the various buttons the image will change in a set order (i.e. 1-2-3-4) no matter what button you click. My goal is to get the image to change using the same transition effect only the button controls the image it changes too (i.e. push button one, change to image 1; button 3 changes to image 3, etc...).
I've tried using swapdepth functions, however this stops the tween that scrolls the background. Any suggestions and help will be greatly appreciated.
An example of what I have so far to get a better Idea of what I am babbling about can be found here: http://members.cox.net/salvationalizm/main.html

Dynamically Controlled Movies
Ok I am trying to make a site that when your on one page and click to go to another a little animation will play and then an entrance animation will play for the next part. My problem is i can figure out how to tell flash to look at were its at in the timeline currently and then load the corresponding exit movie and after that plays the new entrance movie. If I didnt explain this very well here is an example of what i'm talking about.

Airplane Controlled By Mouse?
Hi all,
I am working on an old school fighter game. I have drawn a basic airplane and converted it to a Movie Clip. I would like to control this movie clips x and y positions based on the movements of the mouse.
I would it so that where ever the mouse pointer goes as long as in the window the airplane will go.
So far I only have it working with the left and right arrow keys. I'd like to forget the arrow keys and go only mouse.
Thank you,
Stea|th

Yposition Of MC Controlled By Button
Man, looked all over the place for code help for this, but couldn't find it. I have a snippet of code I use to change pos, scale, opacity, etc...
This works great when I change frames, but what if I want to control properties of a MC without changing frames? Is there a simliar tween motion snip of code anyone knows that I can put ON the button to control the MC of choice?
To change properties, I have been using this code:
ON THE MC I PLACE SOMETHING LIKE:
onClipEvent (load) {
targ = 83;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_y -= (_y-targ)/3;
}

Mouse Controlled Masking
hi
A few months ago i spotted a nav system in flashkit(movies) which i really liked and would now like to use it but can't remember what it was called (yes i should have stored it in myfk!!) anyway it was basically a nav which the mouse controlled masks on a horizontal scale as you moved the mouse left or right bars would move in tandem to reveal pictures and as you rolled over a link it would automatically close up the rest of the links and just keep that one open. it was very similar to the old eyedea.co.uk if anyone can remember that.
Any help would be great in pointing me to the correct movieas i 've spent ages looking with no success
Regards
jon

Mouse Controlled Frames
Hey.
I’m looking for a tutorial to rotate a 3d device (not the QTVR one). One where the x position of the mouse would control the frames. i.e. if I move the mouse right it would scroll through the frames forward and if I moved the mouse left that it would go through the frames in reverse. The tutorial does not necessarily have to be in relation to a 3D object but on controlling the frames with the x position of the mouse.
Thanks people, you have been so helpful in the past.
I appreciate your time!
Darren
