GotoAndStop To Frame On Another Scene
Hello,
I am trying to put action script on a button instance
so that when the button is released
the user goes to the third frame in another scene
but it's not working -
nothing happens when the button is pushed
in the .swf file.
This is the code I have
code: on (release) {
gotoAndStop("Scenephoto, 3");
}
What am I doing wrong?
Is there a scene naming convention
I don't know about?
Does the code only affect one frame of the button instance?
Please help!
Thanks!

_root.gotoAndStop (a Scene AND A Frame?) HELP
Hi
I know this must just be a syntax thing but i just can't get it.
I have my main movie loaded into level0 it has 8 scenes.
I have a movie.swf which gets loaded into a blank MC which is in scene 2 in the movie on level0.
There is a button inside the loaded movie.swf which wants to take the user to another scene and frame of the movie in level0.
I think that the AS on the button should be:
_root.gotoAndStop ("scene2", 10)
But it doesnt work. If i take out the "scene2" part it will take me to the frame number specified, but only in the first scene.
HELP!!

GotoAndStop([Scene], Frame) Problems
Hello,
I have the following code in my flash program:
gotoAndStop("mainScene", 1);
When it appears within an on(release) function, it works correctly and transfers to the correct scene.
However, when it appears within a if statement it doesn't work.
Any ideas why this is?
Regards

Can't GotoAndStop To Certain Scene
For some reason I've always been having trouble using gotoAndStop("scene", frame#). I can only wish for luck on it. I have this button that I want to go to the main menu. It's a "Try Again" button on a game over screen and I want it to go to that scene, which is before all of the levels. (Of course.) Here's the code I've been using in the button.
Code:
on (release) {
nextScene();
}
I've also been trying:
Code:
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop("Main Menu", 1);
}
..and taking off the _root. Hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.

[F8] GotoAndStop(1) For ALL Mcs In A Scene
Hi there,
I didn't find anything helpful for my problem on the board or with Google, so I decided to start a new thread...
I've got a file with two scenes. The first one is the main scene, and when the user plays around with what's in there, a lot of different MCs move from their frame 1 (empty frame, so MC is "invisible") to frame 2, 3, 4...
There are about 30 different MCs in that scene.
But the user also has the option to go to scene 2 (which is like a goodbye-animation). What I would like to happen is, that, when the user chooses to go to scene 2, all the MCs that are still open in scene 1 move to their frames 1 (otherwise they're still visible in scene 2).
There are too many MCs with all different names in scene 1, so I thought about something like
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.gotoAndStop(1);
which I put in the main timeline in scene 2.
But that doesn't work...
I've been searching the WWW for an answer for quite a while though, but nobody ever seemed to have encounterred that problem... or is is that easy that noone has to ask...? Ooops...
Cheers, Annie

GotoAndStop(); At Beginning Of Scene One, From Within A Movieclip.
Hello everyone,
Ok, I'm making a slideshow for a friend. I have a movie clip within the slideshow that plays for about 1300frames. At the end of the movieclip, I would like flash to return to scene 1, frame one.
on the last frame of the movieclip, I have tried using the code
Code:
gotoAndStop("Scene1", 1);
but this just starts at the beginning of the movie clip, not the flash movie.
I've also tried labelling frame one 'beginning' and used the
Code:
gotoAndStop(beginning);
but this also did not work.
Any suggestions.
Thanks

[F8] GotoAndStop Does Not Go To Correct Frame, According To Frame Label
I'm having trouble getting gotoAndStop to go to the correct frame. I've labeled frame 5 as "FIRST", frame 10 as "SECOND", and frame 15 as "THIRD".
Then I put the following code on frame 1, which I labeled "HOME", if it matters.
//var myFrame:String = "FIRST";
var myFrame:String = "SECOND";
//var myFrame:String = "THIRD";
trace(myFrame);
this.gotoAndStop(myFrame);
trace(this._currentframe);
stop();Letting myFrame = "SECOND" sends the playhead to frame 9, but it should be 10. When myFrame = "THIRD", the playhead stays at frame 1, while it should go to 15. Only "FIRST" goes to its correct frame, 5. Note that if I change the frame that is labeled "SECOND" from frame 10 to frame 9, then the playhead goes to frame 8.
I thought that this would be a really simple thing to do, but I'm getting quirky results.
Everything is on the root level and there are no movieclips or scenes involved.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, guys.

Play To Frame#, Then Gotoandstop At Another Frame#
Can anyone help me with this? I need to assign a button action that on (press) tells the timeline to simply start to play, but then at a designated frame number (29), it needs to gotoandstop at frame (240).
For example:
on (press) {
play();
}
then at frame (29) gotoandstop(240)
Due to the way I've set up the main timeline, with some overlapping stairstepped buttons, I can't simply put the gotoandstop action in the actions layer. I need to embed this in each button, otherwise I'm looking at a major rebuild of the layout. For example, it will work like this:
Contact button - on press plays to 29, then when 29 is reached, it jumps to 240
About Us button - on press plays to 29, then when 29 is reached, it jumps to 230
News button - on press plays to 29, then when 29 is reached, it jumps to 220
etc. etc.
Any ideas?

[F8] GotoAndStop Fails In Frame 1
If I put a gotoAndStop in frame 1 of my movie, it fails. If I put it in frame 2, it succeeds. However, by putting it in frame 2, the user gets a brief flash of frame 1. I want to conditionally skip frame 1. Here's what my code looks like:
if (_root.myFlag == "a")
gotoAndStop("a");
I've also tried it like this, but with the same result:
this.onLoad = function()
{
if (_root.myFlag == "a")
gotoAndStop("a");
}
I've even simplified it like this, with the same result:
gotoAndStop("a");
Why doesn't this work in frame 1?

GotoAndStop Goes To Wrong Frame
Hi guys,
First post. I'm a fairly new Flash developer and I'm having a problem with a project I'm working on.
I have a button that loads a movieclip on level 4 and passes a string value to it. This movieclip (let's call it web.swf) has it's own timeline and frames are labeled. In the first frame of web.swf, i have an init() function that reads the string and goes to the proper frame.
basically:
if (_level0.string == "fred flinstone")
{
_root.gotoAndStop("frameFred");
}
So everything works pretty well, except that for this certain if statement, it goes to the wrong frame!
I created a dynamic text field to populate with _currentFrame just for testing, and this particular if statement stops at frame 30 (should be 31.) I even tried gotoAndStop(31); and yet, _currentFrame returns 30..... what gives?
To make this even more confusing, frame 31 has some images on it. If I remove the images, the function does go to frame 31! if i leave the images, it always stops at frame 30. arghhhh.
Anyway, anyone experienced this problem before? I'm using Flash mx 2004. Any help/tips would be appreciated!
Thanks!

GotoAndStop On Random Frame
I have an MC called asteroid. In the script, every 1000 whatever units its in a new asteroid is attached at the center of the stage. There are two things i cant get to work. #1 i can get the asteroid to stop at a random frame(it has 100 frames). #2 after it's made and has gotten its random frame to stop at i need it's width and height to grow. Here is what I have so far:
i=1;
setInterval(rocks, 1000);
function rocks(){
rock= _root.attachMovie("asteroid","asteroid"+i, i);
i++;
rock._x = 300;
rock._y = 300;
rock.movef = setInterval(rockmove, 10);
}
function rockmove(rok){
// I dont know what to put here; what I tried did not work
}
What would I add to my script to accomplish this task?

GotoAndStop Will Not Stop On Frame
I have a movie clip, with several nested clips...
At the end of one of the clips I have a line of code that says:
Code:
gotoAndStop(main1);
main1 is the label of a frame in the _parent movie clip.
Unfortunately this doesnt work and it just starts at frame one in the same clip.
I have also tried the following code:
Code:
this._parent.gotoAndStop(main1);
which has the same result.
when I use this code.. it returns to a previous scene, but not the scene i want to work in.
Code:
this._parent.gotoAndStop(1);
Anyone have any ideas?

Hey Pals,
I'm trying to target a frame label on the timeline of a scene from a movie clip within the same scene, using Flash MX 2004 Pro. The scene is ultimately used as a .swf to load as a page of a website. The frame label is called "miscOn", the scene is called "misc". The below code is attached to a button within the movie clip.

Play... Then... GotoAndStop Various Frame Options
I can do this by creating three seperate MC's but I'm trying to avoid that when one MC will do if I can figure this out. Here's the scenario:
I have three buttons sitting within an MC on the same frame where a STOP action sits on another layer.
When one of the buttons is clicked I want an animation to play, the same animation for all three buttons. AFTER this animation is completed, I want the playhead to gotoAndSTOP at a specific labeled frame, based on which button was clicked. All that will be displayed on this frame is the last frame of the animation and text, specific to the labeled frame.
I'm not sure how to do this. A "play" action will start the animation, but how I get the playhead to go to a specific frame after the animation is over is where I'm lost.
I'm sure there's an obvious answer, but I'm missing it.
Thanks

Gotoandstop Specified Frame On Main Level
I have a flash movie that plays an intro and then stops. the last frame contain buttons etc for navigating the site. The buttons are in a movie clip named menu. when a user clicks a button it loads a new swf over the top of the original intro (stopped frame), amongst other actions see below:
on (press) {
gotoAndPlay(15);
loadMovieNum("wwd.swf", 2);
}
on (rollOver) {
unloadMovieNum(1);
loadMovieNum("navigatewwd.swf", 1);
}
on (rollOut) {
unloadMovieNum(1);
loadMovieNum("infocenter.swf", 1);
}
To these actions i want to add an action to gotoandstop a specified frame (lets say frame 20 for example) on the main intro. (this will be a plain white frame) I want it to do this before loading the movie onto level 2.
does this make sense?
my reason for doing this is so that the main intro frames are not visible behind the movies loaded to level 2. as i transition through the various pages of the site the background (ie the stopped frame of the intro) flashes briefly before the new swf is loaded on level 2.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

GotoAndStop(frame) Caching Issue
hi,
as a kind of an image container i created a swf file (using adope Flash CS3) including about 100 single Images(512x512).
On my main as3 application i use the LoaderClass to load this cont.swf.
so far fine, i am able to move to every frame using gotoAndStop(frame).
but it seems that each gotoAndStop(frame) allocates the memory for the frameimage and never release it.
as example:
PHP Code:
var Mov:MovieClip = mapSWF.loaderObject.content;for(var frame:uint = 0;frame<128;frame++){ Mov.gotoAndStop(frame);}
Memory usage dramatically increases with each step. even if i unload the whole swf file using Loader.unload() there is still a huge amount of allocated memory.
is there any way to free the cached memory or extract each frame by its own?
i wonder what is the common way to assemble images? I build that swf file because it is much faster to load a whole container.swf instead of requesting each single image.
thx a lot

GotoAndStop(x) Instantiates Everything Between Current Frame And X?
So, I'm starting to become truly frustrated with a combination of two pernicious aspects of Flash CS3. One of which, the way it handles sound, there's not much to do about... but it gets worse when coupled with this:
So, let's say you have a main timeline that is 10 frames long, and each has a keyframe containing:
someClip_mc
- Which contains someClipChild_mc (a clip with a sound on the timeline starting on frame 2. Frame 1 has a stop action to prevent sound from playing).
Each instance of someClip_mc, s well as the someClipChild_mc inside it is from a different library item, so we have ten different sounds on the timeline.
Now, on your main timeline do this: gotoAndStop(10);
And now all of a sudden you hear a cacophany of sound! It is as though gotoAndPlay(10) caused flash to instantiate every clip that exists on frames 2 - 10, but then before the clips have a chance to execute their frame scripts they are 'removed' from the display list if they ever existed in the display list at all. Since the default action of a movieclip is to play, this is exactly what those nested clips do and because they aren't on the display list they don't execute the stop() action on frame 1! The same can happen if you "gotoAndStop(1)" from frame 10. Any time you use gotoAndStop() it seems to provoke this behavior if you use it to skip over frames in any direction.
So... why in the world does this happen? How can you stop it?

What I want to do is when someone goes to the website, the flash movie automatically loads a random member's organization (with a button link) into the center area.
The file works in IE7:
http://www.cnjo.org/
but in FireFox, the flash file is stuck on the first logo, and will not randomize.
Here is my action script 2.0 code:
r = int(Math.random()*12)+2;
_root.gotoAndStop(r);
stop();
_root.btn_ahcj.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.healthjournalism.org/");}
_root.btn_apme.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.apme.com/");}
_root.btn_asbpe.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.asbpe.org/");}
_root.btn_bea.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.beaweb.org/");}
_root.btn_ewa1.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.ewa.org/");}
_root.btn_ire.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.ire.org/");}
_root.btn_nsnc.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.columnists.com/");}
_root.btn_poynter.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.poynter.org/");}
_root.btn_rel.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.rna.org/");}
_root.btn_sci.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.nasw.org/");}
_root.btn_sej.onRelease = function(){getURL("http://www.sej.org/");}
Like I said, the button instances are set and working in IE7 but not in Firefox, whats up with this?

GotoAndStop Frame Label In Different Movie Clip
Hi!
I'm having a problem with this one...
On my main timeline, in frame one, I have a movie clip called "mc" (for sample sake)
Inside that movie, I have a frame "playme"
On frame two of the MAIN timeline, I have another movie clip. Inside that movie clip I have a button where I simply want the action for it to gotoAndStop to the mc to frame "playme"
I've been able to figure out much more complicated _root/_parent/_level0 scenarios before, but for some reason I cannot get that second button to go to the mc"playme" frame.
I've tried:
this.mc.gotoAndStop("playme");
this._parent.mc.gotoAndStop("playme");
and basically about 9,000 other versions, none of which work. If I put the button on the main timeline(stage) of course it works. So it's a path thing.
I'm sure this is simple but if ANYONE can help me it would be much appreciated. The swf file that I am using will be using this same scenario several times throughout.
THANKS!
Suz

Buttons Going To Scene 1 Instead Of Frame In Current Scene
Looks like I've got another problem...!!
In scene 3 of my file I've got four mcs working as a menu (with buttons inside them). When I test just the scene on it's own and the mcs use the "on(release)" command to do gotoAndPlay(2), it doesn't do it unless I put in a tellTarget (_level0 or _root).
When I test the entire movie, clicking the buttons just goes straight back to frame 1, scene 1...!!
What am I doing wrong? Is it the target path that the mc opens?
It's driving me mad... and this is my second post today!
I've tried gotoAndPlay("Scene 3", 2) but it still goes back to scene1. Help!!
Thanks again for any advice

Strange Error: Gotoandstop Going To A Frame For A Split Second Then Returns
Hello,
I have the following code in a frame
Code:
//shared object code adapted from macromedia livedocs, URL:
//http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/mx2004/main_7_2/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Flash_MX_2004&file=00001664.html
doScore();
stop();
function doScore()
{
//create the name of the shared object so each level and game type has sep scoreborad
var so_name:String = "kosina" + game.type + "_" + game.level;
//create the local Shared Object
var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(so_name);
//if any of the score values are undifieded, ie first time this is run
//set them to 0 so that the logic to place scores works
if (my_so.data.score1 == null)
{
my_so.data.score1 = 0;
}
if (my_so.data.score2 == null)
{
my_so.data.score2 = 0;
}
if (my_so.data.score3 == null)
{
my_so.data.score3 = 0;
}
if (my_so.data.score4 == null)
{
my_so.data.score4 = 0;
}
if (my_so.data.score5 == null)
{
my_so.data.score5 = 0;
}
//logic to determin where the score should be in the high scores
//and move down other scores if displaced by current score.
if (game.score > my_so.data.score1)
{
my_so.data.score5 = my_so.data.score4;
my_so.data.score4 = my_so.data.score3;
my_so.data.score3 = my_so.data.score2;
my_so.data.score2 = my_so.data.score1;
my_so.data.score1 = game.score;
msg.text = "You rank number 1";
}
else if (game.score > my_so.data.score2)
{
my_so.data.score5 = my_so.data.score4;
my_so.data.score4 = my_so.data.score3;
my_so.data.score3 = my_so.data.score2;

{

my_so.data.score4 = game.score;
msg.text = "You rank number 4";
}
else if (game.score > my_so.data.score5)
{
my_so.data.score5 = game.score;
msg.text = "You rank number 5";
}
else
{
msg.text = "No high score this go";
}
//set the score values to the text boxes
score1.text = my_so.data.score1;
score2.text = my_so.data.score2;
score3.text = my_so.data.score3;
score4.text = my_so.data.score4;
score5.text = my_so.data.score5;
//set the text to show what the highscores are for
if (game.type == 1)
{
scoretype.text = "Arcade Level " + game.level;
}
else
{
scoretype.text = "Challenge Level " + game.level;
}
}//end function do score
function keyHandler(keypress)
{
if (keypress == "right")
{
if (menu_mc._currentframe==1)
{
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
again_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
menu_mc._alpha = 100;
again_mc._alpha = 30;
}
else
{
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
again_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
again_mc._alpha = 100;
menu_mc._alpha = 30;
}
}
if (keypress == "left")
{
if (menu_mc._currentframe==1)
{
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
again_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
menu_mc._alpha = 100;
again_mc._alpha = 30;
}
else
{
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
again_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
again_mc._alpha = 100;
menu_mc._alpha = 30;
}
}
if (keypress == "space")
{
if (again_mc._currentframe == 2)
{
gotoAndStop(2);
}
else
{
gotoAndStop(3);
}
}
}
and it all works fine apart from that last bit with the goto and stops. The one to go to frame 3 works fine but when it goes to frame 2 it just directly there for a split second then returns.
I've tried swapping the 2 and 3 around and still have the problem with directing to frame 2. Also ive tried directing it to a blank frame and still it just directs back.
I'm pretty sure there is nothing in frame 2 to cause it to direct back. but anyway here is the code for frame 2.
Code:
stop();
//menu control function
function keyHandler(keypress)
{
if (keypress == "up")
{
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(menu_mc._currentframe - 1);
}
else if (keypress == "down")
{
if (menu_mc._currentframe != 4)
{
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(menu_mc._currentframe + 1);
}
}
else if (keypress == "space")
{
switch (menu_mc._currentframe) {
//arcade
case 1:
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(5);
break;
//challenge
case 2:
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(10);
break;
case 5:
game.level = 1;
game.type = 1;
gotoAndStop(3);
break;
case 6:
game.level = 2;
game.type = 1;
gotoAndStop(3);
break;
case 7:
game.level = 3;
game.type = 1;
gotoAndStop(3);
break;
case 8:
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
break;
case 10:
game.level = 1;
game.type = 2;
gotoAndStop(3);
break;
case 11:
game.level = 2;
game.type = 2;
gotoAndStop(3);
break;
case 12:
game.level = 3;
game.type = 2;
gotoAndStop(3);
break;
case 13:
menu_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
break;
}
}
}
any help or suggestions would be much appriciated, if anyone thinks they can help if they have the full fla please pm me,
Thanks
