Basic 1st Steps For Actionscripts
So, I'm wondering what the basic 1st steps are for Actionscripts in Flash applications? Being new and making no assumptions, I'd say that the file starts with Frame1 of the main timeline. Does that actionscript ever get 'processed' or 'run' again? Or do you need everything else to be in 'functions' and event driven by using listeners?

Can someone clue me in to more of an overall flash way of programming?

Some questions are:
- If there is code in frame1 of the 'actions' layer, and code in frame1 of 'mylayer' (both on the main stage), does one run before the other? If so, based on what? Which one is on top?
- Also, I've tried a 'GotoandPlay' command from my initial actionscript in Frame1 of 'actions' layer, but since it's outside of a function it only seems to advance the frame of the object to the proper frame lablel. But it doesn't run from that point on. So what's the thinking here?

Basic Site Animation
Hello,

Need some help with website set up. Every site I go to has a basic animation for each of its sections, and then provides different content depending on the section. How do I supply the diffenent content depending on the section the user clicked on.

I was thinking it was different frames of a movie clip, but does that mean I have to repeat the basic animation for each section. Seems redundant.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks,

BASIC SITE NAVIGATION
Hello

I am new to Flash and totally stuck. I have managed to scrape together a site at www.lostdubs.com. However I have two problems:

1. I can't get any preloaders to work.

2. I want all of the content to load at once to eliminate the "blips" as the content changes. Or I want each .swf to have its own preloader.

As you can imagine I am not too good with code. I am super frustrated. Any help will really be appreciated!I am in Sydney, if there is anyone here who wants to trade work for help I'm up for it.

Thanks!

Basic Site Construction
I have gaping holes in my knowledge of Flash when it comes to putting up a site. Despite having created hundreds of .SWF files for inclusion in sites or for stand-alone consumption, I don't know how to put a three-part site together.

Here's the goal:
Part 1 is a SWF file of a menu I created using the Dynamic Menu code found elsewhere. Works fine, but I want to drop THAT code into a movie clip below the _root, drop another "Content" panel where the goods show up based on menu choices, and finally, I want a Part III, just a footer with mainly static text and and image or two.

Here's the menu all by itself, and only one item loads, but it loads RIGHT on top of the menu. Dynamic Menu beta

Can you get me on the right track?

Basic Site Construction Question
I'm an extreme "newbie" and this has gotta be a stupid question, but I have no pride...

I am trying to design a flash movie for my portfolio. And I guess I really don't understand how to make different sections for navigation. For example if I have an opening animation (nothing complex) and when the final animation has ended all the navigation would be in place. If I wanted to see a section for logos, do I put all my samples and animation into a mc? If I do that, I cannot seem to get the loadMovie script to work. And then what if I want to switch sections and look at print samples? How would that work exactly?? I've tried one of the tutorials in here about loading mc, but it really didn't help. Here is sorta an example

http://www.squarewaveinteractive.com/swi_frame.html

I dunno what else to say. Hopefully many of you will be able to recommend a source or tutorial that is straitforward and clear. Thanks for your patience!

LoadMovie / Creating A Basic Site
Hey guys,
I'm trying to create a fairly basic flash site. I have a bunch of 'pages' so to speak, which will be loaded into a movie clip 'bodymc' on the root timeline. I have tried the loadMovie function, but that is not helping or doing anything. Please feel free to download the .zip, it holds the main page and the homepage, which will be loaded into the mainpage movie clip. Any help would be most appreciated, I really can't figure this one out.

God bless,

- TK

Help Examples Of How To Use Actionscripts In Flash
Greetings.

I just started on a little assignment regarding actionscripts in flash. Sadly for me i cant even call myself a beginner. I have been looking around various sites trying to find help on how to get started. However the world of actionscripts seems to be bigger then i expected.

Either way im hoping some of you have the spare time to get me on the right path. As the topic says i need to make examples of how to use actionscripts in flash. If anyone have any good ideas/links/guides on something i could get started on, i would be over the moon. The more simple it can get, the better. Using and explaining a little bit of code is the important thing, unlike making something big and complicated.

Im sorry if you have seen anything idiotic like this a billion times on here before, posting the wrong place or explaining myself like a monkey. Im just having a hard time figuring out how and where to get started.

Regards Troels

I wondered how I might begin with just, say, four movies (not the huge amount Adobe have used in the link), with AS (2).

What are the first basic steps I would take?

Many thanks.

How Do I Use Flash MX To Directly Edit Actionscripts In An Swf File?
After creating several swf files using flash MX for my website, and after testing them I found a few errors in the action script in one of the files, is there a way that I can directly edit the swf file's actionscript using flash MX?

I tried importing the swf file into flash MX, but I can't find where the list of actionscripts are, that I created, the preview pane shows the first scene, but there's nothing in the action pane, even when I step through the frames, there's still no actions listed.

What I'm looking for is a list, something like:-

-frame1
action
-frame2
action
etc, etc

and by double clicking on the required action, a type of text editor opens, allowing the script to be edited, then compiled back into the original swf file.

I can use swf decompiler and view the scripts as a list, but the decompiler doesn't allow editing.

Secret Actionscripts In Flash (eg: Right Click Detect Sorted...)
Hey All,

ok, i saw on this forum or were-here that there was a method to check for a right click. this is not my code and i don't take credit... i don't know who's it is actually...

so basically, you'd make a prototype:


Code:
Mouse.isDown = function(click) {
// click = 1(detects left) or 2(detects right)
var click;
return asNative(800,2)(click);
}


ok... so then instead of making a messy set of clip event statements, you can say:


Code:
onClipEvent(mouseMove) {
if (mouse.isDown(1)) {
trace("you're dragging the mouse");
}
}


Ok now if you've followed all that (and if you've also read the huge post on prototypes in were-here), here's the question...

ok so what the hell is the "asNative" and more importantly ... are there any other built in function that anyone knows of that Macromedia hasn't told us about?

Help With Actionscripts
I am designing a game and I have a dynamic text box with the variable named power. Throughout the game the number in this box will rise. For an enemy in the game I will have a health bar that will decline as the enemy gets hit. How can i use the number in the power text box to determine how much the health bar will decline. Please give me an example of a script. It will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chad Conger

telltarget "?my movie"
gotostop "56"


but I want to know how do you tell the movie to move to a specific frame?

Actionscripts
hello,

i am new at this flash thing. heres the situation. I have a looped from frame, say, 135 to 195 - i.e. the movie plays within these frames. I have written an action script to jump to frame 196 on a button click. simple so far. the trouble is once it reaches the 196th frame, the movie doesnt display anything even though there are clips and objects beyond it.

i have been at it for hours and cant figure out why does it not display the clips beyond 196. help!

FULL Actionscripts For EVERYTHING?
One quick question for you guys. A guy wants a Flash site where ALL the tweens are in actionscripts. Although I doubt this is possible, (tell me if it is or not) but let's just say it is. Tell me something, as developers, would you want to waste your time writing actionscripts for EVERY single motion tween out there? I mean, really, can someone tell me how much file size (give me a percentage) it would save? I seriously doubt it'd help any more than about a 5% file size decrease, if even that. Oh, and I'm not talking about extreme tweens where things bounce around, etc, I'm talking about your BASIC Flash sites. As a developer, what do you think is optimal as far as doing the least for the most?

Sliding MCs With Actionscripts
here's the deal. I have five menu items(buttons) lined up vertically. In front of those menu items I have a MC that magnifies them (covering one item at a time). That part works fine.

I want to be able to click on another menu item and have that button set the Y axis variable so the magnifying MC slides along the y axis to the click item. Sliding being the part I can't make happen. I've found similar examples in Flash 5 but I need to do this project in Flash 4. And am have had no luck converting the code. Does anyone have a flash 4 example they could share?

Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.

Problem With Actionscripts
I am making a brickles-type game for fun and I have run into a problem. The ball can't get the _x and _y or any other value of the paddle. I am sure it is just some simple problem with how I worded it:
if (paddle._y <= _y) {
}

That should do something when the paddle's y value is less than the ball's y value. It doesn't.

Even doing this:
trace (paddle._y);
doesn't work. Therefore I think I worded it wrong. What do you say instead of "paddle._y" to get the y value of the paddle?

DuplicateMovieClip And Actionscripts
Hi,

i created a matrix of squares with the function duplicateMovieClip and set some properties on the duplicated clips.
This is the code that does it:

Code:
amount = 100;
perrow = 10;
counter = 0;
while (amount>0) {
duplicateMovieClip (square, "mc"+i, i);
if(amount % perrow == 0) {
FromTop = FromTop + 10;
counter = 0;
}
setProperty ("mc"+i, _x, counter * 10);
setProperty ("mc"+i, _y, FromTop);
setProperty ("mc"+i, _alpha, 100 / counter);
i++;
counter++;
amount--;
}


Now I want that when someone rolls over one of the duplicated clips, this clip will get other properties (width, height, alpha, wathever)

I also want that every time a movie loops (onClipEvent(enterFrame) ) it changes the alpha of that clip. In that way I want to create a kind of "wave" in the alpha values of the squares.

I hope this make any sense ?

Thankx for the help,
kGP

Actionscripts Along The Timeline
If I have a actionscript at frame 1 (just a on(press) action) and then I put a different actionscript at frame 50, it seems that my button doesn't work anymore after frame 50, unless I repeat the original on(press) script at frame 50.

Make sense?

Button Actionscripts
I really suck at actionscripts, especially in Flash. I'm not very good in the program and I have made this website which uses different scenes for different pages. You can surf throught the scenes with a menu. Everything is ready but the problem is that I have to connect the buttons to the scenes. Which actionscript do I need?

And do I have to use a 'stop' in every scene?

Thanks in advance
