Anyway To Create/add Frames With Actionscript?
When using video converted to .swf with Squeeze, I find I need to insert an fscommand somehow on the last frame (to trigger action in my host application). I found that loading the video .swf into an empty .swfs timeline I can simulate this by placing an fscommand on the last frame of that empty .swfs timeline, this works gerat as long as the empty .swf has same number of frames as the dynamically loaded video .swf. I was wondering if there's a way to have the empty .swf read how many frames in the video .swf and then adjust it's own timeline length to match?

Or does anyone have a better way to solve this problem of needing to have an fscommand on the last frame of my converted-from-video .swfs?

Thanks for any help or advice.

Can't Create Key Frames In Swift 3D
Ok. Cast your minds back to Swift 3D v1.00. Yup. Remember? Well that's what I'm using....

I'm getting v3 if I can convince the client to go with 3D work I mock up in v1 (which our sister company has so I'm stuck with!)

My problem is this. I have created an object, lit it, added materials and now I want the damned thing to move, but it isn't playing ball!

The manual makes it sound incredibly simple. Drag out your timeline to the appropriate length, pick a frame and move your object. A key frame will automatically be inserted. Apparently. Well it's not doing that for me

So, I drag out 40 frames and go the the super easy Animation Gallery. Or rather, I would if I could find it. It's not on my screen and it's not on the View menu, but according to the manual this mystical creature exists. The only thing I've found is Setup --> Animations. I tried dragging and dropping animations to objects from there and it wouldn't let me.

This is really starting to get on my nerves.....

One other thing. The RAViX engine is extraordinarily slow in v1.00. Someone please tell me it's much faster these days....?

Dynamically Create Clips, Frames, Etc
I want to be able to create
movie clip instances on the fly
and be able to manipulate the timeline
in them (add keyframes, add actions to
frames, create tweening paths, etc).

You can create clips with duplicateMovieClip, but
I don't see anything in the actionscript
help or dictionary for modifying clips. Is it impossible? Is there a plugin SDK for
flash which can do it?

Is It Possible To Create More Frames In A Movie Clip?
i'm working on a dynamic animator. i have a series of jpg files that are generated by some cgi/php/sql junk, and i'd like to show them as an animation. they will be generated while i view the page, so i'd like to be able to have it dynamicly update as it looped, as in, id like each loop through the movie to show the avalibe frames. the problem i'm having is, i don't know what i should do for this. should i create several (the number of images in the animation is dynamic, that is, anywhere from 1 to 500) movie clips that can hold 1 image a piece, and then just show them at a frame on the timeline, or is there a way htat i could load them all into a timeline as they are generated?

any help that you can provide would be very much appreciated.

Trying To Create A FADE EFFECT Between Frames
Hello,

Is it possible to create write some actionscript which would cause a Flash movie to fade smoothly when jumping from one frame to another?

For example, say I have a Flash movie with 10 frames with a 'stop' command on each frame with a navigation bar which allows me to jump from from frame to frame as I choose. Every time I jump to a new frame I want the content in the old frame to smoothly fade into the content of the new frame. And I want this to happen for the entire frame, not just certain elements. What would be the actionscript elements for doing that? Or is there a tutorial?

Thanks in advance.

Create A Listener For Looping Frames
Hi everyone.... I'm the new spud on the block so don't mash me up to bad !
I'm also a tater-tot when it comes to ActionScript...but a wise enough tater to know how truely awesome it can be if used properly.

I'm creating a cartoon and the charactor descends a flight of stairs. At the bottom he pauses and looks around, blinks, scratches and looks around some more. On this frame I've placed the charactor as a button to continue on. But I would like for it to keep looping back a few frames to where he reaches the bottom of the stairs and keeps doing his thing until the viewer clicks on him to move on ...... similiar to the Neverhood charactor (Clayman)

Would this call for a Listener or some other type of ActionScripting code ??

Thanks

How To Create Actions For Individual Frames
I'm trying to create a simple interactive menu by following this tutorial:

http://www.cbtcafe.com/flash/flyoutmenu/flyoutmenus.html

The problem i am having is step 5. It asks me to create two stop actions in a specific actions layer that i made, one in frame 1 and the other in frame 22. The problem is, when i create the first action in frame 1, it seems to copy that action to all of the 40 frames that i have. I also noticed that in the example, the person has a filled-in circle in frame one where the buttons are and un-filled circles in all the other frames. When i created all the frames for this layer, there was neither a filled or an un-filled circle in frame one. What is going on here? I am having the same problem with labels. It is only letting me label one frame in any specific layer. Am i creating the frames incorrectly? Thanks for your help!

Create Layers And Frames Inside A MovieClip
Well, I guess the subject is pretty self-explanatory, but I'll clarify: I'd like to dynamically create MovieClips and then create layers (and frames, but for now my interest is in layers only) inside them. The only solution that comes to mind is to create additional MovieClips inside the main MovieClip to pose as layers. Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Puzzled On Frames Loaded And Total Frames Calculation Issue
The Goal:
I am trying to find out if the last frame of a loaded swf has been completed so I can then unload that swf and replace it with another swf.

The Process:
I have on the main time line a MC called movie1. (The main time line is only one frame long)

In the first frame on the main time line I have the following code:
---- start code ----
loadMovie("test/test_movie.swf", "movie1");
if (_root.movie1.framesloaded=_root.movie1.totalframe s) {
getURL("javascript:alert("Frames Fully Loaded")");
} else {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1);
getURL("javascript:alert("Frames Not Loaded")");
}

---- end code ----

This code will load and play the movie into the MC and gives me an alert that the "Frames Not Loaded". Thats great because it means I am loading the movie correctly and testing the total frames correctly. But I need to know when the last frame of the loaded swf has played so I can then load another. Even if I take out the else statment in my testing code I still can't get it to tell me when all the frames are loaded.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Looping Frames X-y For 'z' Amount Of Times Then Proceeding To Frames After Loop
Hi,

I'm relatively new to Flash and have not done much work with the AS. I was hoping someone here could enlighten me on an area which has been stumping me.

I need to know how to loop (for example) frames 1 to 5, 4 times then continue to frame 6 until the last frame, then go back to frame 1, thus re-entering the loop, etc. I do believe it would involve something like this... but then again I'm a newbie to this so... what do I know (which is why I wanna learn)

Frame 1:
i=0

Frame 5:
i=i+1
if (i>4) {
gotoAndPlay(6);
} else if (i<4) {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

Thanks so much

Looping First 38 Frames 7 Times, Then Playing The Whole 76 Frames And Stopping
Hi Guys, I have a movieclip that the first half has one set of movements, but the second half changes. I want to be able to loop this movieclip (instance on the root), so that it plays the first 38 frames 7 times...i.e., loops 7 times, and the 8th time, it plays the whole clip, then stips...the movie is 76 frames long.

I know it's going to be...make i=1 first time...add 1 to i each time...and if i=7, then play past frame 38...and put a stop(); at the end of the movie, but i don't know how that code would look, if I could please ask for more...basic (ugh...) help...
In other words, how do I write this (pseudocode) in AS:

i=1
play frames 1-38
i=i+1
if i is less than 8, play frames 1-38
if i is more than 7, play the whole movieclip, all 76 frames

How To Repeat A Group Of Frames Without Adding A Million Frames?
Hello,

I have made a small flash intro using Flash MX 2004 Professional. The intro is about 3 seconds long. Here's what I want to do:

I want to add a few frames to the intro where I add things shooting through randomly, and I need these few frames to repeat themselves while keeping the main intro sort of paused in the background... How would I do this? How would I "pause" the background without adding a million frames? And is there some way that I can loop a group of frames? Please respond as "newbish" as possible so I can understand

Thank you!

Copy Frames Paste Frames... File Size.
Sooo I have a bunch of vector art I imported from swift3d and than I want to reverse the animation later on in the project so I copy the frames and than I paste them then I use the reverse frames option.... When I compile it doubles the size when I compile.... I know that maybe I should expect this. But if the symbols are already in the library why doesnt flash just use those symbols again and not increase in size?'

I hope this makes sense thanks in advance

Film Frames To Flash Frames
I want to make some small animations and in order to capture movement and forms 'correctly' I want to use digital video.

I would then turn up the contrast to define the form and shapes and then trace in flash or freehand. Hereby creating a frame by frame animation.

OK that's an idea, how do I do that the best way? (and quick?)

Create, Delete, Create Event Handlers
Hi,

At the moment I create an onEnterFrame function to ease a movie clip into view. I then delete it. I want to be able to recreate a similar onEnterFrame function later to swoosh the movie clip out of view. At the moment weird things happen when I try and do the second onEnterFrame. Am I doing something illegal here?
I know I could put this all in the original onEnterFrame, but I don't wanna be wasting processor time doing an if statement every frame to work out if it's time to swoosh out the movieclip. Or should I not worry because that's negligible cpu time?

Move All Clips For 30 Frames ? Can't Use "copy Frames" Why ?
Hi
I have a animation with masks, movieclips loads of keyframes...all in all about 25 layers.
How can I insert at the beginning in every layer for example 30 emty frames ?
Another thing:
I tried to make a movieclip out of this animation because I don't want to handle all these layers but it doesn't work. The option "copy frames" is not active. Why ?
Thanks a lot for help.

Replacing Frames With Other Frames
I would like to know if it's possible to replace existing frames with other frames. In my case I have made an animation of a talking guy with text appearing over him, but at some point he stops talking and I forgot to insert the frames where his mouth is closed, so I'm stuck with no text but a mouth that is moving anyway. I would like to replace the sequence of 'moving mouth frames' with a sequence of 'closed mouth' of the same length.

Thanks in advance guys.

.swf's And Frames
Hello.
Here is the question: How does one controll a swf from another swf loaded into another frame in the browser window. wow, I'm even confusing myself with that explanation... If I have a frameset with two frames, and one frame (the Main frame) contains my main movie, while the other frame has a 2nd swf loaded into it at a certain point along the main movie's timeline. Is there a way to control the main movie from this 2nd swf? Sorry if that makes no sence, its been a loooong day. I'm playing around with _parent._root etc, etc, but obviously no success.
Anyhow, thanks for any and all help.

Are there any guidelines or reccomendations for what you can use as frames per second in flash movies?

Are there any resources on the net that have explored this issue?

I'm curious if slower computers can handle higher frame rates in flash. (nothing really high, but 24 fps or so)

Is there any way to change the fps in the middle of a scene? I've started on a movie, but realized that I need more fps to create some cool effects. I could change it and then extend every single animation so that it runs at correct speed but that would take alot of patience and time, which I don't want to waste. =)

So, can I change the fps with some kind of action script or anything? It would help alot.

And one more thing, what fps value do you recommend for let's say an animated movie?
