Flash :: DuplicateMovieClip Stops Duplicating In Scrollpane

Why This Duplicating Movieclip File Stops Working Properly When It's Embedded?
As, the title suggests, I've got the following file which works prefectly on its own but when it is embedded in another swf, I get problems.

What happens is that whenever I drag any instance onto the stage, as soon as I go to select and drag another one, the old one vanishes.

Any idea why this is? (file is attached)

Thanks

Scrollpane + DuplicateMovieClip
I have a scrollpane on the stage named "scrol"
its contentPath in properties = "ring0"

This loads the movie into the scrollpane fine.

***************************

I have a movie on the stage named "ring0"

This code duplicates "ring0" accross the stage fine.

PHP Code:

posx = (325.6+5); for(i=1; i<10; i++){duplicateMovieClip("ring0", "ring"+i, i);eval("ring"+i)._x =posx;posx = posx + (325.6+5);}

***************************

However I want the movie "ring0" in the scrollpane to duplicate so that the scrollpane grows to accomidate it.

Anyone have an idea on how to do this ?

Thanks

Scrollpane / DuplicateMovieClip Loding Problem
Hi all,

I have a bit of a problem loading a JPG image into a duplicateMovieClip.

Here is how I have it set up.

1: I put The Flash 8 scrollpane component on the stage and loaded it
with a movieClip called "ImageLinks". The MC "ImageLinks" has 3 elements on seperate layers. Element 1 is a MC called "thImage", ( short for thumbnail image), that has an empty MC in it called "imageSlave". This is where I
want to load an external JPG dynamiclly from the image path in an XML file.

2: I also have inserted a dynamic text box into the MC called "ImageLinks".

3: On top of all theis I have placed a Blank button with the hit area set only
so that I can script the action of the button dynamiclly.

Now with the MC set up I use the duplicateMovieClip function to load
as many dups as I have images in the XML file.

Here is the code for making the dups and the attempt to load the images in
the dups.
_______________________________________________
ImagePath = new Array();
ImagePath = value_video_image;
num = totalSubC;
trace(num);
ystart = 0;
n = 1;
while (n <= num)
{
duplicateMovieClip(bar, "thumb-bar" add n, n);
setProperty("thumb-bar" add n, _y, ystart + n*50);
this("thumb-bar"+n).thImage.imageSlave.loadMovie(ImagePath[n-1]);
trace(n);
trace(ImagePath[n-1]);
n = n + 1;
}
setProperty("thumb-bar", _visible, 0);
__________________________________________________ ____

This code makes the dups with no problem, but doesn't load the images
into the dups.

Please Help!

Best regards
Toby

DuplicateMovieClip Inside ScrollPane Component?
Hi there,

Is it possible to use the duplicateMovieClip function to duplicate an item that is inside the ScrollPane component?

I am retreving a number of records from a DB, using ColdFusion MX, and I need to be able to scroll up and down the list of items... The scrollPane would be great for this, unless you can't duplicate movie clips...

Any ideas on this can be handled?

Symbol Stops Playing When The Movie Stops
Kindof a newbie question.

I have a flash movie, (it will be a flash banner for a website).
I created animated logo sumbol (which wil perform a litle animation every once in a while) and dropped into the main scene, which also has an animated intro.

So once the scene is built out, I put stop() in the last frame, so it doesn't start from the beginning. But the problem is that animation in my symbol also stops playing.

Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for any feedback!

[F8] Button Inside Scrollpane, Cannot Control MC Outside Of Scrollpane?+emptymc
Hi, first look at the example of how it should work :

http://www.surfacingmedia.com/VIDEOPLAYER2.html
notice the Buttons in the scroller on the right tell the MC on the left to GOTO MC frame i want it too (each frame then holds Player for specific video.)
works great right?

Now when I load this into my main site into an empty movieclip i use for all section content it Does not work at all! sure it loads the first video but the buttons are disabled?
(use link below navigate to photo/video and selet video.)
http://www.surfacingmedia.com/

the code is the same just calls to the videoplayer MC and tells it to goto a certain frame.
it doesnt work when loaded into my empty MC. ?
any suggestions?
If kill the scrollpane altogether, buttons work fine then even loaded into emptyMC. seems once buried in scrollpane its too deep for buttons to work? which for me defeats the purpose kinda.
Note-Flash 8 (i am a code lightweight i used the BEHAVIORS commands gotoand stop on frame select the MC.)

Thanks in advance i will answer some posts while i am here that i can now.

ScrollPane Auto Scroll On Frames Within ScrollPane
Hi Guys,

I am using an instance of the scrollPane component to load in scrollable content, some of the items of content are .swfs that have separate navigation within them. I am wondering how I can get the scrollPane to adjust the amount it can scroll based on the content on each frame of the movie that has been loaded into the scrollPane. Ideally the scrollbar would also turn off when the content is small enough for there to be no need for the scrollbar.

Thanks,

-Jim

Swapping Scrollpane Content With Button Outside Scrollpane
Hi,

I'm terribly new to flash which is probably why I couldn't solve this with any tutorial out there.

I've got a scrollpane, and outside that I have a few buttons working as a nav bar. I want these buttons to load a different movieclip (which isn't in the stage, it's in the library) to the scrollpane.

Using the tutorial on this site (the one where you add or remove a blue movieclip to the scrollpane) I got as far as adding the movieclip to the scrollpane. Problem is, I need the buttons to unload the current movieclip before loading the new one.

(So for example, if the movieclip called "home" is loaded in the scrollpane and I click on the button "Patterns & Textures" I want that button to unload "home" from the scrollpane and load the movieclip "patterns")

My code so far looks like this:

Code:
scrollPane.setStyle("borderStyle", "none");

var i:Number=0;
var mcMain:MovieClip;
function init() {

scrollPane.contentPath = "home";
mcMain = scrollPane.content;
trace(mcMain);

}
init();

brushes_btn.onRelease = function() {

mcMain.attachMovie("brushes", "brushes"+i, mcMain.getNextHighestDepth(), {_y:50*i+5, _x:5});
i++;
scrollPane.invalidate();

};
Taken from the tutorial.

I'm pretty sure I don't need the + i part because I won't have more than one mc in the scrollpane at once, but I don't know how to remove it without screwing it up.

I'd greatly appreciate any help!

Scrollpane Content Not Limited To Scrollpane
I am using the scrollpane component in flash mx. I have content loaded into the scrollpane via actionscript. The content loads up, but the scrollbars scroll it past the edges of the scrollpane. The content then overlaps the rest of my movie(outside the scrollpane. How can I fix this? shouldn't there be a mask there? thanks for your help, garrett

Loading Mc In One Scrollpane From Mc Clip In Another Scrollpane
I'm still stuck.

I have one movie clip with a whole bunch of buttons 'loaded' into scrollpane and I want each button to load a different mc into a different scrollpane when clicked.

I tried using "attachMovie" but I'm still very confused.

Is this what I use?

If so, do I go

on(release){
attachMovie("mc name", "frame label of loaded mc", "level not in use");

}

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Scale Scrollpane Content Not Scrollpane
Friday arvo, fantastic.

Any way I can scale a externally loaded clip sitting in a scrollpane.

I can scale the scrollpane no probs using a slider but I want the scrollpane to be static and the swf inside the scrollpane to scale.

cheers in advance.

Postioning Content In Scrollpane Without Using Scrollpane
Hi guys.
Not sure if this is possible. i had a look through the help files but had no luck I have 2 questions so here goes.
i am using V2 components in particular the scrollbar component.
I am attaching an mc to the scrollbar the mc contains several lines of text.
Is it possible to use a button elsewhere in the movie to set the postion of the mc in the scrollpane. Essentially moving the content up or done without using the scroll pane buttons or track bar?
How on earth do i change the colour of the scrollbar track button?

thanks
Paul

ScrollPane To ScrollPane Communication
I have a scene with two ScrollPanes. One ScrollPane contains a movieclip of thumbnails (used as buttons), the other ScrollPane contains larger pictures. Similar to a photo album. When each thumbnail is clicked, it is supposed to go to a specific frame label of another movie clip within the second ScrollPane.

This is the code I am using for the thumbnail buttons:

on (release) {
_level0.Ads-Scroll-Large.tmp_mc.gotoAndPlay("AD2");
}

I know it has to be something stupid...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Many Thanks,
Todd

One ScrollPane Scrolls Another ScrollPane?
Hi. I have 2 scrollPanes in 1 .swf. The left one loads in an mc with text and links. The right one is the main text content. I want users to be able to click on links in the left pane to vertically scroll the right pane.

Oh. And I need to publish this in Flash 6.

Thanks for any advice.

Calling From ScrollPane To ScrollPane
I am still pretty new to actionscripting...so please bare with me.
Here is what I have...
I have 2 scroll panes
Both of the following scroll panes are on the main stage (frame 1).

One scroll pane has an instance name of "scrollComponent". It is loading the movie "componentList_MC".
In the "componentList_MC" movie is a battery button with an instance name of "batteryBut_btn".

The second scroll pane has an instance name of "viewsScroll". It is loading the movie "viewsPanel_MC".
In the "viewsPanel_MC" I have a frame label of "full" and another label of "230-6368_Battery".
The inital state of the "viewsPanel_MC" is set so that it is on the frame label "full".

I am trying to get it to where when you click on "batteryBut_btn" that it will go to "viewsPanel_MC" and go to the frame label "230-6368_Battery".

Here is the code I have on frame 1 on the actions layer. This is what I have described above and is not working. Any thoughts or suggestions that someone could help me out with?

//12V Battery (230-6368_Battery)
batteryBut_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.viewsScroll.viewsPanel_MC.gotoAndStop("230-6368_Battery");
};

Too Many Stops?
Ok, I am using Flash 5. I have a drop down animated type menu, sound etc. All are in different Movie Clips. When I test the final product, My dropdown starts my music, visa versa etc. etc. What have I done worng here? The key tag in all conflicting clips is the stop tag!

Lastly, call my ignorant . . . I can't get the links to work when I am trying to send the users to a new page (which is actually just a different mc) Again, what the hell's wrong with my coding here? I will upload the site to:

http:www.Purple-Sky.net/trinity

Hopefully someone can help me . . .
Thank You,

It ALWAYS Stops At A 100% :(
Hi, and happy new year!

I have put up a site at http://home.no.net/djooprod

The preloader doesn't work correctly. It refuses to go on to the next scene. However, loading the .swf locally works fine. The code inside the preloader is as follows:

in frame 2:
if (_root.getBytesLoaded()!=_root.getBytesTotal()){
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

in frame 3:
nextScene();

The movie consists of the preload scene and the main scene.
The movie also utilizes some php-scripts, but I can't imagine how that could be relevant for my problem.

Could it be that I should try uploading my .swf from another computer? We're talking UNIX server here.

A big thankyou in advance to all of you who might help me with my problem.

90 % , 91% And STOPS
I don't know what's going on! I'm mading a cool (this IMHO) mixed website (half html half flash) and i'm using flashMX to produce the swf but i'm publishing it on flash 5.
Nothing wrongs when debugging, testing, re-testing in my computer... it loads perfectly with the "show streaming" test, but when i put the swf on my testing server- (wich is a "free server" that i use before sending the finished files to the pay server) some of the files (swf) i send loads till 90% maybe 91% and then they STOP! I've beeing testing...it NEVER ends loading.
My questions are:
1- It could be a server problem?
or
2- It could be a FlashMX files published in Flash 5 problem?
more
3- It's my computers problem? (i don't think so, because i see a LOT of sites in flash, only MY files got stuck on the 90%)

Maybe it's a problem that i don't know yet...so... what you say... can you help me? I'll apreciate.

[F8] Using Stops.
I made a flash movie that has a mask in it (example of what kind is here: http://www.entheosweb.com/Flash/masking.asp)
there are several other layers besides the one with the masking in it. On the last layer, I put a stop in so that the movie doesn't keep repeating itself. the problem I'm having is that putting in the stop has stopped the masking from going from left to right and back, like it was when I didn't have the stop--it just goes from left to right, but doesn't go back and forth again. How do I fix this?

Stops Being Ignored
Hey all, hope this makes sense.

I have a timeline based portfolio website that uses LoadMovie scripts to bring up animations and illustrations as swfs. I also have a preloader with each swf. The problem is, if a user clicks on one button that has a LoadMovie, and then clicks on another before the first one (swf) loads, the new button with swf clicked continually flashes after loading as if ignoring the stop script. And, if they click on anything else the entire timeline plays ignoring all stops.

Any ideas? Is it my preloader? Do I need to use a clearInterval at some point?

Loading Dynamic Info Into Scrollpane -- Then Loading The Scrollpane Please?
hi,

i've been tearing my hair out trying to get this to work:

1:
dynamically load certain images and info by calling an xml file from within flash. this will create a timeline, which you can see works perfectly (i hope) in timeline.fla

2:
load that timeline.swf into a scrollpane (in this case, located in timeline_test.fla) by clicking on the chapter numbers on the bottom.

for the second part, i have gotten as far as loading timeline.swf into the scrollpane, but for some reason it only shows the last image in the timeline. there should be at least 3 more images that come before the one displayed. it also will not show the date and title of the image, which *does* show in timeline.swf. why is everything getting excluded? and how do i fix it?

also, i've tried to figure out how to get the chapter numbers to update the scrollpane, but with no luck. the best i can do is the ripped buttons from cyanBlue's code, which obviously i don't want in the final version.

i would be willing to take the code from timeline.fla and put it right into timeline_test.fla, although as to how i would do this, i have no idea.

i think i've read just about every tutorial and message post on scrollpane and loadMovie, but it's turning out to be a huge headache and nothing works the way i want it to.

please, if you can help me, i would IMMENSELY GRATEFUL.

thank you thank you,

Stops At A Frame
Upon my page loading, I am trying to play a particular movie clip. The first frame in the movie clip is a stop command, so I can call upon it to clear out when another mc is loaded. In any case, I try to tell target to frame 2 of the move clip, and want it to play all the way to frame 20. However, it gets to frame 2 and stops. I can goto and play any particular frame e.g. 3, 4, 5...and it just stops.
Can someone tell me how to get it so it will play frame 2 through 20 on one pass. There are no stop commands or anything else blocking it. Any other ideas I can look for? Your help would be greatly appreciated!

GotoAndPlay Just Stops
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.choice == 1) {
this.gotoAndPlay(22);

You would think with the above code, that if _root.choice == 1, the movie would go to frame 22 and play from there...

but the playhead stops at frame 22.

What's the deal with that?

SWF Sound Stops On CD-ROM
Hi,
I have created a (*.swf) file (which has button sounds) which I have burnt to CD.
When first using my (*.swf) file on CD, everything is ok but once the CD stops spinning I loose all sound, even after the CD starts again when reading more information. I have tried converting the (*.swf) to a projector but with no luck.
Any ideas

Music Stops?
I imported one musc file in my flash video and about halfway through the song it stops.... I cant figure it out im really stumped. I just have it play in the start of the movie...thats all i want it to do, I have never had this problem before.

Any Ideas?

When Sound Stops
i have a presentation and attached a sound to each frame, and i want to find out when the sound stops in the current frame so i can highlight the NEXT button on the stage. So i placed an action on the first frame that says if the sound1.position == sound1.duration then light up the button, but it doesn't light up, i think because the if statement is only read when it first enters the frame?? any suggestions on what to do?

thanks in advance!

GotoAndPlay Just Stops....
Anyone ever have this problem? When you tell a movieclip something like

movieClip.gotoAndPlay (5);

It goes and Stops at frame 5 instead of starting play. Since this happens only some of the time, it has cost me tons of wasted time trying to find out why my movieClip isn't listening. It only seems to happen if you tell a movie clip with a stop(); command in the first frame to do this. The only solution I have found to use when this happens is to instead of using a stop(); command in the first frame of the movie clip, instead issue a gotoAndPlay (1); in frame 2 so the movie continues to loop playback until something else tells it to gotoAndPlay another frame. Am I the only one with this problem, and is there a reason/solution for this?

Everything Stops Responding
Hi, I'm having a big problem with my project. I'm doing a Flash game with server interaction, using PHP. I open the game window normally, the game starts, I play it for a little while and suddenly all "getURL" and "loadVariables" commands does not work anymore. If I try to refresh the window that opened the game (the game is inside of a popup), it doesn't work too. It's like the IIS is busy with something. But the weird part is this: if I close all the windows and open them again, everything is fine, until I start to play the game again and then... it all stops again.

I thought that it was some problem with IIS, but when I open normal PHP or ASP files, without Flash, and they never hang themselves.

I'm using WinXP SP2 (firewalls disabled), PHP 4, Flash MX 2004. At my work, the same problem occurs, and I run Win2000 there.

My game is going great, but I'm now stuck with this problem. Thank you!

OnEnterFrame Stops
Hey guys,

onPress of one of my buttons I run two functions. The first function uses .onEnterFrame to slide an object on the stage... the second function loads an external photo in _root.content_mc

The problem is that as soon as the image is loaded in _root.content_mc the .onEnterFrame of the slide function STOPS!!!

Any ideas?

edit: Okay.. I noticed that it stops NOT when the second function loads, but when the the second function starts to fade in the photo with its own .onEnterFrame

can you have have two .onEnterFrames running at the same time?

Why My Animation Does Not Stops?
Hi everybody!

I have an animation in a mc with more than 30 layers in it. Only 5 are active at the same time. The objects move from the right side of the stage to the left. If I rollover one of this objects they set a variable gMyName to a name. When the animation is over a frame I evaluate the gMyName variable and if it equals the value then the animation should stops.

This is the code in an Actions layer:

if(gMyName == "N01")
{
stop();
}
else
{
play();
}

The mc does not stops. Why is doing this?

Thank you in advance.

Stops Animation
in my project i want an animation of an object to be played when i press the needed keys:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
this.gotoAndStop(2)

}
else if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
this.gotoAndStop(3)

} else
gotoAndStop(1)

}
but when i release the key the animation stops be fore it ends.
hod do i make the animation play to the end and only then make it stop?

GotoAndPlay Goes To And Stops
this isnt the first time i have encountered this problem.

I know your first response is 'you probably have a stop() command somewhere' but the same code when pointed at any frame does the same thing. furthermore gotoAndPlay() somewhere else works. The same thing happens when using frame numbers and labels. It is going to the right frame but its like I'm using gotoAndStop(). Any insight?

Flash Stops Just Before The End
I've got a 10-minute long Flash movie that I've been working on for several months. It's been approximately this length for the whole time I've been working on it, but recently it started acting strange in two ways, which I don't think are related, but here they are:

1) It takes a very long time to publish -- 15 minutes or so
2) This is more serious: when I play the swf (doesn't matter if it's within a browser or not) it stops just before the end, both the image and sound.

I made a separate .fla and .swf of just the last section, and it doesn't cut off. Is there some kind of limit to the length of a Flash movie? I've certainly made larger Flash files than this -- the .fla is 44 mgs and the .swf is 4.

Swf Compileing Stops
i helped out a friend by editing a template so allmost all the text on the site is in an external .txt and some of the images where external

my friend now has a new web designer (cuz im to busy right now) and he changed a few things on the fla and he is saying that the fla wont compile to a swf it will go half way then stop. he waited 3hrs but it didnt move at all.

does any body know how to fix this or what went wrong?
thanks

Timeline Stops
hi, when i click around randomly in my flashcs3 projector file some of the movies timelines stop and audio goes of.
I cant find anything online about this has anyone else encountered this problem?

Preloader Stops
I have a loader.swf that contains the preloader and a movieclip on the stage that loads the external movie. And here's the problem. Preloader stops randomly somewhere between 100% and 60%. Stays there for few seconds and then displays the movie. So whats wrong?

This is the first time I try to preload movie this way. Til now I've always included the preloader to the movie thats been loaded and it always worked fine.

I hope someone can help me. And sorry about the language skills.

Flv Playback Stops
Using progressive download, along with MediaDisplay and MediaController. The flv plays back perfectly on many machines, but for 3 of the 11 computers I have tested playback on on, the flv stops after 5 seconds. The flv is recognized and the loadBar shows that the full video is downloaded and you can even drag the scrubber farther down the video, but playback does not resume. This also occurs on other examples of progressive flv files I have found on the internet for these machines, so I'm relatively sure it is not my particular swf or flv files which are causing the issues.

Flv Stops Playing
Hi,

I have encoded a 20 minute .wmv file to a .flv file for progressive download using the encoder in Flash 8 Professional. I save the .swf, and embed it in an html file. The video plays fine, except for some people. The .flv is being hosted on a server in New York. There are people in Australia and Singapore who tell me that it stops half way through the video. I have set the bufferTime parameter to 45 seconds, but the video still stops for these people. Is this just a case of the network conjestion between New York and Australia, for example, is so busy that the progressive download can not keep up with the playing of the video? Or is there something else I can/should do to prevent this problem? Also, even if it does stop, shouldn't it continue again automatically after it buffers some more of the video? Thanks for any help!

Animation Stops On PC But Not On MAC
Hello everyone,
Guess what, we need some help here. I have made a very simple animation in Flash8
and set it up in the Publish Settings as it should stop and not loop at the end.
Unfortunately it works on PC's computer only not on Mac!!!
Can someone tell me the reason and if there is another way to make it stop looping.
Thank you very much for your help.

My Site Never Stops
I'm very new to Flash. I followed this tutorial: http://www.oman3d.com/tutorials/flash/simple_website/

GotoAndPlay Instead Stops
Hello,
I have a script within a frame that initiates a stop, a time delay, and then a gotoAndPlay () - See attached code. That all works great! However, when I gotoAndPlay (2) it just stops in frame 2 rather than playing from that point. In fact I can nicely go to any Frame I want - as long as I want to just stop there. There are no other scripts or hidden stop () commands lurking anywhere. Its a very clean and open timeline. Whats the deal?
Any help - greatly appreciated.

FMS Service STOPS
Hello,

This is pissing me off actually, the service is automatically stopping!

FMS version is 2.0.1, i am using windows XP. I am having this problem since today only! i thought that it might be services conflict issue, so i stopped most of the services that are not by MICROSOFT, and still the FMS stops after exactly 4 seconds or sometimes less.

I am using the Developer edition. is there any limitation for that edition such as expiring after 3 or 4 weeks? i guess not!

PLease help...

and yeah, i tried to reinstall the FMS, did not work out.
