Flash :: Invisible Movie ...

Invisible Movie
Thanks to atomic I got everything figured out to get my movie online. When I loaded the index to to server to put it online, I typed in the URL and the flash movie is invisible.

While working with it offline everything is fine, but the minute it is online... invisible.

I can right click the area of the page where the movie should be and I do get the about flash 9 window as well as the regular window to access the source when I right click off the movie area.

Is this strange?

*EDIT: I should say... When I publish the movie html it is invisible. When I publish it swf I get a white box.

How Do I Make A Movie Invisible?
Can someone tell me how I can make a movie invisible?
I thought this would be easily done by having the following:

movieInstance.visible = false;

I've read the Flash help... and I'm pretty sure the above is supposed to make the movie invisible??

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Duplicate A Movie After It Has Been Made Invisible.
Please show me how to correctly duplicate a movie which has previously been set to invisible. See commented out lines in the attached fla. Just show on the penny_mc,
Also, I could use suggestions on how to assign the movies which hit their targets a number value, and then keep a running total of all hits in a container, and display the content of the container into the dynamic text field. I am very slow to learn this, and could realy use the explanations commented out along side. Thanks.
the movie is not duplicating, but the screen is heightened, for some inexplicable reason.
if (display1 == true ) {
penny_mc._visible =0;
duplicateMovieClip(_parent.penny_mc, new penny_mc, 1);

setProperty (new penny_mc, _x, 10);
setProperty (new penny_mc, _y, 267);

setProperty (new penny_mc, _visible, true);

Thank you.

}else{
penny_mc._visible =1;
}

Parts Flash Movie Invisible
I've made a standard html page with a flash object using Flash 8 pro. At the office we still use IE6 with flash player 6. I've noticed that when I view my html there, certain parts of my flash movie become invisible? It works in Firefox there, but IE seems to make certain objects invisible or at least won't show them.

I haven't used any special AS , just the ordinary mc's/buttons. Even tried exporting to flash player 6. The only thing it commented about is the use of 'enhanced strokes' in my logo.

It's a full screen flash movie so the width/height is set to 100% and scaling is turned off.

But instead of showing all buttons, mc's, graphics, it just shows a text line inside my logo and a tweening movieclip. The rest becomes the background colour.

I've tried it at home, also using IE6 but with flash player 9 and it doesn't have any problems there.

What could cause a thing like that? Some security setting perhaps?

Invisible Mc Flashes When Movie Starts

Invisible Buttons In Movie Clip
okay - I'm using Flash MX and rather new to it. I have this small "movie" that simply rotates four pictures. Once on the web, I want each picture to by hyperlinked to a different URL. I gather I need to make an invisible button during the duration of each picture, but each time I try to even make one button, I get the following message: Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Layer 6, Frame=1: Line 1: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances
on(release){

Obviously I have made the button wrong. Can anyone look at my fla and see if they can add the appropriate script so I can and the ULR's in question?

THANKS!!

Kris

Activating Invisible Movie Clip
Let's see if I can explain myself clearly......I have menu buttons A, B and C in a swf file, directed to movie clips A, B and C in a second swf file. When I click on any of the buttons I'd like it to open the second swf and its corresponding movie clip to appear but not the others.

Those same three menu buttons also appear in the second swf file. Once it's open I'd like the viewer to continue clicking on buttons and bring movie clips into view, thus adding to the scene until all movie clips are in view.

How do I script this and where do I apply the script? I'm a newbie and need explanation in simplistic terms:-)
Thanks so much!!

Invisible Vinculation Between Movie An .as File?
Hello!
I have downloaded an example from here and I can't find the way the main movie is calling the .as files around...
I have even deleted the .as files from the folder and the movie keep working, but this can be due to the movie calling the files straight from Internet or maybe because it is already on my player memory.
Apart from this paranormal behaviour, the real question is: how das the movie invokes the .as files???

Controlling Movie From Invisible Button
I'm trying to control a different movie clip from each of several invisible buttons. My actionscript for the first one is

Code:
on (rollOver) {
mv_acevo.play();
}
but it doesn't play the clip. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong please?

And 2nd question, given that there are going to be 9 or so of these should I put each mc on a separate layer? If so what's the right way to refer to each mc in actionscript?

Movie Clip Tween Invisible On Stage...
I have 6 similar movie clips on stage with an action to play them on press. The Movie Clips contain a Symbol with a motion tween over a path, and a mask motion tween. When the Movie Clip is clicked it starts to play but the symbol tweening does not show up, while the mask tween works fine. Every symbol is in its own layer and the tweening seems fine in the .fla preview. I'm attaching the file, the smallest of the symbols on the stage is the one scripted. Thanks in advance for any help.

Making A Movie Clip Invisible, But Tangable
How can I make a movie clip invisible, but movable by my mouse still? I have a movie clip that only moves on the x Axis and I want the left side of it (where there appears to be nothing unless you move the movie clip over a certain spot) to be movable. In other words, I want to be able to movie the movie clip without having to touch the clip exactly. I tried using the alpha, but wierdly, it still gives me some sort of shaded-like box. If I use the _visible = false; it makes it invisible and not touchable. How can I get the best of both worlds? thanks - Chris

Making Movie Clip Invisible On Different Frames
Hello everyone,
Probably a really stupid and easy question...I'm just not thinking straight

Basically I have 2 frames...on the second from is a MC called car. I was curious as to what actionscript is that I would add to frame 1, to make the MC invisible on fame 2?

For example: _root.car._visible = false...will only work on the 2nd frame (where the MC is located) and I was curious what the code would be to change it invisible thorugh the first frame...

Thanks for reading, hope it isnt to hard to understand

[F8] Make Invisible Visible With A Movie With Hittest
I've tried my hardest to figure this out on my own. I searched, and got Ideas. but now I am stuck

anyway... here I'll put the code of what I've got.

I have two movie clips

one called trigger with and instance of trigger_mc
and another called called triggered box with the instance of triggeredbox_mc

in my action frame I have:

this.trigger_mc._visible=false;
this.triggeredbox_mc._visible=true;

on the trigger box movie I have

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest( _root.trigger_mc )) {
gotoAndPlay(2);

}
}

here
is my current swf.

what I want is when the trigger hasn't hit the trigger box. I want the trigger box to be invisible.

I'm prettry sure in the action frame I'm going to have to start out with

this.trigger_mc._visible=false;
this.triggeredbox_mc._visible=false;

but I what I'm not able to find out is how to make it visible once it's been triggered... or when the hit test is true....

if helpful my fla is at

How Do I Make Movie Clips Invisible On Load?
I had this going before but I forget now, and I'm up real late and its really pissing me off.

Lets say I have a box and I dont want it to be seen when the movie starts. I name its symbol box and its instance name box1

I have frame actions box up and I double click "evaluate" and then choose box1 from the target browse function.

immediately after _root.box1 I insert _visible=false;

so it says

_root.stick_visible=false;

But when I preview my movie it isn't working. HELP!!! Its eating my up.

Making Invisible Buttons Really Invisible...
here is what i want to do:

i want to place invisible buttons across my .fla that trigger random actions in other movie clips. however, i do not want the user to know that they are triggering these invisible buttons - how do i do this?

when you roll over a button, whether visible or invisible, the cursor changes from an arrow to a hand - how do i prevent this from happening (meaning, how do i keep it as the arrow instead of changing to a hand on roll over/roll out)?

thanks

Make A Movie Clip Invisible And Visible Any Where In The Timeline, Please Help
How do you set a movie clip from invisible to visible anywhere within a flash movie.

For example : if i add the following code

code:

navigationBar._visible = true;

in the main timeline, then I cannot call a visible = true from within an action elsewhere. Because my timeline is only based with one keyframe, seting aside the preloader, and contained within movie clips. So I need to be able to initially hide a movie clip and bring it back later in the movie sequence.

I think this may need to be made a global action, but I am not sure of this process, can anyone help me here?

Movies Don't Work When I Import Them To My Invisible Movie Clip
How come when I load a movie into my "invis_mc" it stops working? If the movie is alone it works fine. I have attached the fla files. contraPractice.fla is the home page and I get the problem when I click on the buttons Band or Media. If you run slideshow.fla or bandScrollText.fla they work with no problems. I believe it's an actionscript issue but I can't figure it out.

Please help.

Dragable Mouse Pointer Point Toward An Invisible Movie Clip?
Hi, I want to have a dragable movie clip point (which replaces the cursor) at an invisible movie clip. The pointer is a finger and its function is to give the user a visual cue to click in an area to get information.

I found a post about having a movie clip follow the mouse using this:

Code:
this._rotation = Math.atan2(dy, dx)*180/Math.PI;
What would I use to achieve the opposite - have the dragable clip point at something on the stage?

Cursor Made Invisible After 4 Seconds - Problem. Movie Attached
See attached movie.

I have a movie with some nice graphics that I dont want to be disturbed by the cursor. Therefore I have this script in the frames over the graphics that makes the cursor invisible after 4 seconds, if the mouse has not been moved. The script is working perfectly.

BUT :
- I have a options box where the user can turn off the background music and other things.

This options box is made visible by clicking on a options button on the stage. The options box is then showing on stage.

As long as the options box is visible on the stage I dont want to have the cursor made invisible after 4 seconds. It will disturb the user when he is deciding in the options box what settings to use, that the cursor suddenly will disappear. It will come back as soon a user move the mouse again, but it will give the user a disturbing experience with this undesiding cursor flickering.

What I want is that when user click on options button then the "hide cursor" script is turned off. And when the user thereafter is clicking the "OK" button in the optionsbox to make the box go away, then I want the hide cursor script to be active again.

What I want is something like this on the options button:

on(release){
sliding._x=230;
sliding._y=78;

clearInterval(nIdleTime);
}

What I want is something like this on the OK button:

on(release){
_root.sliding._x=-260;
_root.sliding._y=631;

idleTime:Number = 4;
}

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the hide cursor script on the frames:

var idleTime:Number = 4; //define number of seconds for idle time here
var mouseCord:Number = _xmouse+_ymouse;
var nMouseMoveDetect:Number = setInterval(mouseMoveDetect, 500);
var nIdleTime:Number;

function mouseMoveDetect():Void {
if (mouseCord != _xmouse+_ymouse) {
//mouse has moved in last half a second
Mouse.show();
clearInterval(nIdleTime);
nIdleTime = setInterval(idleProcess, idleTime*1000 - 500);
}
mouseCord = _xmouse+_ymouse;
}

function idleProcess():Void {
clearInterval(nIdleTime);
Mouse.hide();
}
