Actionscript Pro Required: Syntax Help Required For Button To Initiate Easing
Hi guys I was wondering if any of you actionscript daddio’s could give me 2 minutes of your time and help me write the appropriate syntax to make the below example work on a button release rather than on the MC mouse down state that it currently uses.

http://www.fluid.com/experiments/timecode/mx_time.html

If you click on the geek panel drop down menu, you will see that it generates the appropriate code for the on onMouseDown,, however I want to call the easing from a button.

If someone could give me an example of the correct syntax using the “easeInquad” function that would be brilliant.

Mobile Phones And ActionScript 3.0?
I'm wondering if it will be possible to develop ActionScript 3.0 applications for mobile phones?

In the Adobe Device Central CS3 I've only seen ActionScript 1.0 and 2.0... so I'm curious if it will be possible to develop AS 3.0 later on, or if it's already possible in some other way?

Actionscript Help Required.
Hi,
I am having problems with actionscript. I am trying to create a 360 degree panaroma. I am using this tutorial provided.
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Sp...h-51/index.php

As this tutorial is written for a previous version (i am using MX),
Set property is defined as below.
,
Set Property ("/movie2", X Position) = GetProperty("/movie1", _x) + 3557
Set Property ("/movie2", Y Position) = GetProperty("/movie1", _y)

I have changed this to match actionscript specifications.
setProperty("/movie2", X Position, getProperty("/movie1", _x+2809));
setProperty("/movie2", Y Position, getProperty("/movie1", _y));

Unfortunatly, I still get this output script error
Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Layer 1, Frame=1: Line 1: ')' or ',' expected
setProperty("/movie2", X Position, getProperty("/movie1", _x+2809));

All of the set property commands throughout the script return errors. Is there a problem? I have tried placing ')' or ',' as the problem suggests but cannot find a solution. Please help me if you can.
Thanks a lot

Actionscript Help Is Required, Please.
Right.

So I'm making a new flash website, and I need some AScripting help. I have a few problems.

1. Content. The main content box is supposed to load external SWF files (e.g. home.swf, aboutme.swf) into the space there. The external SWF files are basically just SWFs which load external text files (e.g. home.txt, aboutme.txt) that contains the real content. Right now, I have managed to get the external SWFs to load the text files, but for the life of me I cannot get the main movie to load the SWFs into the content box. I know it's ****ing loading, because the external SWF has a preloader, and the preloader appears, but once it finishes loading, nothing else appears, though when I put my mouse over it, it turns into a text highlighter cursor, so I know it must have at least loaded SOMETHING. What exactly is wrong with my code?

2. Scrollbars. Notice the scrollbars on the side of the content box? Good. How do I make them actually work? I really have no clue as to how to go about doing this. I've been looking at scrolling tutorials, but I haven't seen one which actually allows both a slider and buttons.

3. Quick News Box. Is it possible to make a external SWF transparent except for the text? I want to be able to load external text files into that news box, but I don't want the SWF's background to be white or anything, just transparent. Is this possible?

4. Navigation. The way my navigation bar is like is, well, it's just a single bar, not seperated into individual links. Would it be possible to create invisible "hitboxes" that act as the areas for the users to click?

Attached is the entire directory of my site for reference. Could anyone of you guys just like, you know, work some Ascripting magic and get it to run? Or at least linky to some specific tutorials?

- Current SWF preview of the site done so far: http://img231.imageshack.us/my.php?image=cutout27wy.swf
- Current home.swf file preview: http://img231.imageshack.us/my.php?image=home8vw.swf
[b]UPDATE: Do note that the previews are ****ed up, because they can't reference each other and there's no home.txt available.

ZIP file of entire site here:

Actionscript Help Required
Hi. I am building a kind of screen show. I have several slides which change automatically. I also have down the side, a list of slide titles. Clicking one of these titles changes the slide accordingly. This all works great.

The problem i have is, the file also contains sound which is synchronised to the time line. therefore, downloading the entire file is a little slow. If i click one of the slide titles, and that part of the file has not yet downloaded, nothing happens.

I figured, the best thing to do was to hide all the buttons to start with, then as the movie progressively downloads, the slide titles slowly become visible, one at a time.

To achieve this, i have created a movie, and placed the following actionscript in it. (The Slide Title buttons are in another movie called "slideTitles", and the _root timeline has labels "Slide1", "Slide2", "Slide3" etc

Code:
onEnterFrame = function(){
if (_root._framesloaded >= eval("_root.Slide"+_root.firstSlide)){
eval("_root.slideTitles.btn_slide" + _root.firstSlide).enabled = true;
eval("_root.slideTitles.btn_slide" + _root.firstSlide)._alpha = 100;
_root.firstSlide++
}

if (_root._framesloaded >= _totalframes){
delete onEnterFrame;
}
}
This did not work. All the slide titles were visible in frame 1

What am i doing wrong?

Some Actionscript Help Required.
Ok guys. Im making a Dawn of War flash game. In this game you pilto a space ship and the game is sort of like Raiden, where the enemies fly down the screen at you.

Now i need some help with the actionscript coding.
So far ive drawn up my ship, the ships bullets, and a green circle for actions. The green circle is not visible though. The ship's instance-name is "mc_ship", the bullets instance-name is "mc_bullet", and the actions circle istance-name is "mc_actions".

So here is the code i have so far.

On the bullet(mc_bullet) --
///////////////////
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var firing = false
}

On the ship(mc_ship) --
///////////////////
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
this._y-=15;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
this._y+=15;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this._x-=15;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this._x+=15;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)) {
firing = true
}
}

On the invisble circle(mc_actions) --
///////////////
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this._visible = false
if (firing = true) {
mc_bullet._y = mc_ship._y+40
}
}

////////////////////////////////

OK so what happens so far is you can move the ship around with the arrow keys, and that works fine, but now i need to know how to make it shoot. Ive tried so much different code, but none of it seems to work. Ive gone close experimenting with my own knowledge of the code, but now ive turned to you guys.

The movement works fine, its just the shooting I need help with. I also need to know how i can make it work without completely changing my code. But I will do it all over again, only if neccessary.

Thanks for any help.

(BTW, I didnt use attach code, because I just signed up to these forums and I copied the code straight from one of MY other posts on another forum.)

Help Required For Animated Buttons.
When you make an animated button, you put a button ontop within the movie clip editing mode and set it so that when a user rolls over it, it plays the little animation, Fine!

However, now you want to make that animated movieclip a button so you can put it in your movie and set it so it jumps to a particular frame of the scene.

THIS CANNOT BE DONE!

Flash will not let you put a button ontop of another butto, even if it is embeded in amovie file?

So my question is, how do you create and animated button that:

i) animates when you roll over it

ii) can be used to GoTo a particular frame of the scene

ActionScript Genius Required
I am loading in a MC and I want to pass it an object full of data. The object is almost passed.

I did a trace using:

Code:
function show_all(temp) {
for (i in temp) {
trace(i+" = "+temp[i]+" {}");
for (j in temp[i]) {
trace(i+"."+j+" = "+temp[i][j]+" {}");
}
}
}

The (expletive deleted) is there. But there is no data in it. My trace is:

Code:
happy = {}
joy = {}

When it should have been more like:

Code:
happy = [object Object] {}
happy.happy = Joy joy {}
joy = Joy {}

Can anyone help?

Actionscript Error - Help Required
Hi

I picked up an old flash file recently - probably coded in flash 5

but i use MX and when publishing I get the following error:

Code:

Symbol=Symbol 105, Layer=Action Layer, Frame=1: Line 32: ';' expected
_n2.maximum_word_length = -1.#INF00E+000;
The code around that line is:

Code:

var _n2 = this;
_n2.a_list = new Array();
_n2.maximum_word_length = -1.#INF00E+000;
Now I asked the guy I got it from and all he could tell me was that

-1.#INF00E+000

Is probably part of the old action scripting and ill have to find the new alternative

Is this true and if yes what would be the "new" substitute for the above?

Thanks

ActionScript Smarty Pants Required
Why would:

xspeed = 10;
_x += Number(xspeed)

work to move an object across the x axis but:

fade = 10;
_alpha += Number(fade)

not work to fade the object in?
If I word like this:

_alpha += 10

it works! But then I can't stop it with an if statement when the alpha value reaches 100 or 0.

URGENT Actionscript Hero Required
hi, a small yet urgent challenge for any actionscript heros:

imagine a cake, choped into 10 slices, viewed from above. my goal is to have this cake rotating at a constant speed until the user clicks on one of the slices. if a slice is clicked on i would like the cake to speed up and rotate a certain amount so that the selected slice is at 11 o clock, and then the cake stops rotating.

i've made a 60% working version but i'm getting bogged down now and progress is becoming slower... i'd love someone to show me a nice optimal way of doing all this (i'm not scared of maths, its just flash timelines etc that screws me up), any help'd be greatly appreciated, taaaa.

Urgent Flash Actionscript Help Required
hi
i have a handin on wednesday so its vital i get this fixed.
I have a menu system that magnetically draws itself to mouse when the mouse is on the x axis in alignment to each button. i need help in putting possibly an if statement which will stop the menu from going all the way across the screen, and only going, lets say around 375 pixels on the x before stopping, or even better would be if the buttons only moved when the mouse was in a 100 pixel radius. I want to implement this as the current structutre is annoying if the mouse is on one side of the screen, and the button flies across even though i dont want it to, and it ends up obscuring the movie clip which is playing.

Heres the code
onClipEvent (load) {
name = "button title";
Button = 1;
ratio = .3;
left = _root.left;
right = _root.right;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
o_x_pos = _root.button1_x;
o_y_pos = _root.button1_y;
mag = _root.magnet;

if (_root._ymouse>(o_y_pos-mag) & _root._ymouse<(o_y_pos+mag) & _root._xmouse>left & _root._xmouse<right) {
this._x = x_pos;
x_pos = x_pos-(n_x_pos*ratio);
n_x_pos = x_pos-_root._xmouse;
this._y = y_pos;
y_pos = y_pos-(n_y_pos*ratio);
n_y_pos = y_pos-_root._ymouse;
} else {
this._x = x_pos;
x_pos = x_pos-(n_x_pos*ratio);
n_x_pos = x_pos-o_x_pos;
this._y = y_pos;
y_pos = y_pos-(n_y_pos*ratio);
n_y_pos = y_pos-o_y_pos;
}
}

thanks

if any1 requires the FLA file to solve this i can get that 2 u too.

Mobile Interface Trouble
Pen always down.

I'm starting with flash and have created a simple set of buttons.

On my Nokia 770 however, which does the full flash thing, the 'mouse' (pen) is always down when used. So when i use the mouse 'Over' button state, it does not work when the mouse entered from outside the button.

You can compare this by a clicking outside a button and then drag over that button. You don't get an 'Over' state that way.

Is there a solution to this?
Can the 'Hit' outside the button be ignored so no drag is started or is there another solution?
Why isn't this a common problem in flash and penbased/tablet computers??

Thanks for any time, Trump
