LoadMovie To Certain Scene And Frame
Is it possible to load an external movie to particular scene and frame and then play it/show it when its time comes?
I am trying to load it sooner so that user doesn't have to wait for it if it is a large file.
HELP: LoadMovie To A Specific Scene And Frame
i'm trying to use the loadMovie script to load another swf but to a specific scene and frame.
without the loadMovie script, it would be: gotoAndPlay ("scene", frame)
but logically, with the loadMovie script, it would be:
loadMovie ("file.swf", _root.gotoAndPlay("scene", frame))
but, that is not working. i was thinking it was because of the double parenthesis but i didn't know how to fix it since "[ ]" are used for something else.
anyone know how to fix or do this? thx for your help ppl
LoadMovie, But Can't Really Define Question.
Sorry about the title but I really don't know what to put there since I'm not sure in which area my problem lies.
I'll try to explain it though (pardon my bad english):
I'm building a small site http://www.photoshop-designs.dk that is in its early stage.
The problem is in loading the content to the "screen" that you see at the site.
The idea is that once you push a button the screen is pulled to the top where it stops and the content is loaded. Once the content is finished loading, the screen (now with content) moves back into place.
I know about loading external SWFs but how do you control the actual "screen animation" so that it "pauses" the animation untill the external SWF is finished loading?
Hope you understand and hope you can help.
[F8] Trouble Using Variables To Define URL With LoadMovie
I'm trying to create a flash container where all the content is editable through a single text file. So far so good, the only hang up I am running into is passing my image paths into the loadMovie function
right now my code looks like this:
MainImg2.loadMovie("images/feature2.jpg","");
and it works
The problem arises if I want to swap "images/feature2.jpg" for a variable name that is defined outside the swf.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this? I am able to pass the image path / url into the variable- but am not able to get LoadMovie to recognize and use this variable to load the image
Any ideas?
Use External PHP Or TXT To Define A Variable Used By LoadMovie
Can I define a variable using external file PHP or TXT and use the loadMovie ActionScript. I want to use an external file to tell my main movie which SWF file to load and play. I thought it would be pretty simple but of course I may be completely crazy to think it is simple. I hope someone can take a look at my code and let me know if I am almost there or if this is much more complex than I think. Thank you much in advance.
Here is my AS:
stop();
dataLoad = new LoadVars();
dataLoad.onLoad = function () {
moviename = this.video
};
dataLoad.load("links.txt");
this.mc_movie.loadMovie("moviename");
Here is my txt:
video=movie.swf
Define And Lock Mc.loadmovie Position
Hello community
I have this question :
With this AS code :
_root.caption.image_mc.loadMovie("essaicomplex.swf ");
On each thumbnail gallery, by passing the mouse over a thumb It loads a SWF ( larger picture of the thumbnail) till now it is great.
BUT 1 : I can not fix the position of the movie
and 2 : the so called "swf-movie" moves together with my mouse.
I want it locked.
I turn around but do not find.
What do I have to modify ??
Define To Play Number Of Frames From The Specified Frame In A Movie
For Example,
I have play from frame Number 40 to Frame number 50. At the same time it has to jump & play from frame 70 to 100.
I may use label for the frame number 40 & 70.
Right now what i have tried is put a action as stop at 50th frame and also 100th frame
_root.gotoAndPlay(40);
_root.gotoAndPlay(70);
It works only once and it stops at 50th frame itself, because i have given stop action at 50th frame...
Hope you understand my question,
Thanks, Bala
Targeting Frame Label In Scene From Movie Clip In Same Scene
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.
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("tajwebsite_main.swf",1);
gotoAndPlay(miscOn);
}
Thanks!

Target Frame In Scene From Movie In Same Scene
I know this is probably really basic, but I'm stuck here. Here's what I want to do: I have Movie1 on a layer in Scene1, and Movie2 on another layer in Scene1. In Movie1 is a button that, when pressed, goes to a particular Frame in Movie2. How do I do this!? Thanks!
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
Flash Button In One Frame Goes To Movie Scene In Other Frame
Hey whats fellow flashers. Im sure this is a no brainer for you smarties, but its driving me crazy...I'm working on a site that has a flash movie menu in the one frame and the main movie in another frame. I need to be able to click on the buttons in the menu (top) frame and have them go to a certain location in the flash movie which is in the bottom frame. If I use the Get URL action, it lets me specify the frame, but not the label (location). If any of you guys have ideas or need me to explain further, please reply. Thanks.
? About Jumping From A Frame In A Clip To A Frame In The Main Scene
Hello. I have a question. I have a question about jumping from a frame in a movie clip to a frame in the main scene. In my main scene, I have a "stop" action in frame one. In this frame, I have a movie clip that is 100 frames long. On the 100th frame of that movie clip, I want to jump to the 5th frame of the main scene. This is the actionscript that I tried, but it didn't work:
this.gotoAndPlay(5)
//This is the code that I placed in the 100th frame of my movie clip, but it doesn't seem to work.
What am I doing incorrectly? Thanks in advance for any advice! (I am using Flash 5)

LoadMovie Scene-to-scene
I always sort of hate working with scenes but the project I'm doing could make good use of them.
I want to load an external swf into a target MC on scene one.
Later I want the same loaded movie to be available on scene two.
Is there a way to ensure that it will already be loaded or will I have to put another instance of the target MC and load the external swf all over again?

Why Is LOADMOVIE Not Working In SCENE ?
Hi,
I'm making a popup jukebox tab to play MP3s while user is surfing various pages. I'm authoring the popup tab jukebox in its own scene called TAB.
For some strange reason I can't get LOADMOVIE to work in that new scene.
I've followed the same procedure that I always have, ie.
1. Making a Movie Clip called "Empty",
2. placing "Empty" movie clip Instance on stage (within this TAB scene) where I want the LOADMOVIE (in this case frame 5), and
3. then adding the action scripting to the button that I want to activate the MP3's as follows:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(5);
loadMovie("letter.swf","EmptyInst");
}
Why is this not working? If I create the same actionscripting etc in a separate file (level 0), everything works fine, but it doesn't work when I create it in a new "Scene".
Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me here!!!!

LoadMovie, Then Go To Specific Scene
Hello...
I'm trying to target a scene in a movie that loads on layer 2. The movie has four scenes, one is called "snapshots".
Here's my code:
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("media.swf", 2);
_level2.gotoAndPlay("snapshots", 1);
}
I don't get an error message, and when the button is released, it does load the movie, only it doesn't go to the scene I want it to go to.
Can someone help me tweak my code to get it to work the way I want it to?
Thanks,
Ansia

Phantom Scene - LoadMovie UnLoadMovie
Hi - I'm having problems with loadMovie and unLoadMovie...
I have a main movie in level 0 with all my navigation. I load up different .swf files into the bottom part of the screen as the main content.
The .swf I'm loading used to be in scene 1 that was meant to run before scene 2. Both scenes started playing at the same time when I ran loadMovie. Also they don't unload when the rest of the .swf unloads - I'm left with these relics from a phantom scene.
So I then cut the frames out of scene 1, deleted it and pasted them into scene 2.
Both scenes still play when loaded - even though the phantom scene doesn't exist any more!
I thought that maybe the memory of these old scenes was stuck in file somewhere, so I've created a .swf file and copied the frames across from my original to try and delete this phantom scene.
Didn't work.
I've now deleted frames from the origianl scene 1 out of the library, but they always appear when playing the movie externally.
Do I need an exorcist?
All the best
PB
PS - the same thing happens when I load another .swf file into
PSS I'm using the loadMovie unloadMovie A/S and I've also used loadMovieNum. Most parts of the scene get loaded in and wiped out fine, but not the phantom part.
LoadMovie Then Unload And Goto Next Scene
Hello,
I have a project that is setup like a slide show. It is all dynamically loaded. Scene01 has a pic and audio explaining the pic. When the audio is done on to Scene02 which is slide 2 and so on for 20 scenes.
Now slide1 (scene01) has changed to an animation, an swf. My Question is how do I get the scene01 anim/swf to tell the parent when done go to the next frame or scene?
I can loadMovie and watch it play. I just don't know how to tell the main timeline that the loaded swf is done and the main movie can go to the next frame or scene.
Thanks in advance!

Frame By Frame LoadMovie Function?
I past the last 30 minutes reading post's about external .swf, and jpeg's. Using the LoadMovie function:
i know so far You can load an external movie(swf) into your webpage in 2 ways - into a level and into a target. When loading into a target, you have an mc (movieclip) on your stage with an instance name. Then you need to give a button an action.
If i have a movie with for example 4 frames in layer 1 and a lot of layers for the design and stuff -
each frame of layer 1 have their own JPEG
each frame on layer 2 - have a button , that if the user click it, a
text appears in a box.
layer 3 - the list box
______________________________________
So if i have a JPG on frame 1 , how i can do that the next external jpeg or swf open in a place on frame 2, and no in the same frame?
Each JPG have a their own button, so i need that all the external jpgs were in differents frames...
That is possible? Or what i need to do whit this!
Please any help, suggestion, anything!
Thanks!
Using LoadMovie To Replace Existing Clip In Scene
Hi, I am going off the following information from the ActionScrip Dictionary:
Quote:
Example
The following loadMovie statement is attached to a navigation button labeled Products. There is an invisible movie clip on the Stage with the instance name dropZone. The loadMovie action uses this movie clip as the target parameter to load the products in the SWF file, into the correct position on the Stage.
on(release) {
loadMovie("products.swf",_root.dropZone);
}
I am trying to embed a SitePal vhost into a specific spot of my movie. I made a movie clip called "SitePalClip" and placed it where I want the SitePal to show up. In the ActionScript, I have the following:
Code:
loadMovie("http://www.urltoclip.com", _root.SitePalClip);
But this is still showing the original clip I made as a placeholder. Any pointers as to what I'm doing wrong?
