Building Dynamic MC -
Can someone point me to documentation on how I might dynamically build a movie clip via ActionScript.

Here's a summary of what I want to do -- build a list of buttons corresponding to a list of options that are provided by and asp page. These buttons will be contained within individual mc (each button has it's own mc) and then the 'button' mc are all merged into one MC that will be displayed in a floating window ---

any ideas?

Help Building A Puzzle
Hi there,

I was looking for that kind of tutorial for so long. I'm trying to build a
puzzle game. Same kind as at http://www.shockwave.com/content/dailyjigsaw_syn/
where you can select the draggable object from anywhere whithin it's boundary.
Also, when the two object do overlap, they don't glue unless their in their good
position. It's not very easy but if you know how, give me a good hint

Site Building?
Hi all,

Im curious as to know if this site Im building is a good way to go about it.

http://www.media-power.co.uk/dande/

On this site,the pages are in different scenes all within the same swf file...the doors open...a button is clicked setting a variable name (e.g. About button sets variable to "about") and the scene plays on (doors close)...then last frame is an 'else if' scenario reading the variable set and therefore jumping to the right scene for the right page button clicked.

My question is...is this a good way to do it?...one whole swf could be a biggie to load....can I put preloaders before each scene?...should I be using the 'load movie' action instead for each page?..in which case, how do I get the buttons to know which page is open and which to load next after an outro of the page before has played?....should each page be a movie clip that loads when the buttons are clicked?

Basically whats the 'usual' way of building a flash site?

How are sites like http://www.estudio.com built?

Apologies for all the questions!

Thanks in advance

Andy

PS. My sites not finished yet!...only about and home are set up to work!

Help Building A Site (I'm New At This)
I was wondering if any of you experts can help me.

I am building a small site for my soccer team. It will be relatively simple with player pics & info and general team info and some links.

I have already made an intro movie (using some animations and music from flashkit).

Now HERE IS THE PROBLEM.

Unfortunately, I can't find the spare time to do this from scratch, and I do not know Flash well enough to be able to do it in the first place. What I am looking for is somewhere where I can download a FREE template and maybe edit it (change graphics etc...) and make it work for my particular site.

If anyone knows where I can find a template with a menu bar (preferably horizontal, but I'm not picky), and prehaps with some nice glide over or button click effects incorporated in it, I would really appreciate a link or two.

I would like the site to be an entirely in Flash, with the "frames" popping up within the "movie" once a button on the main menu is clicked (i.e. when "Player Bio" is clicked, it would load a pic with some text, which I will edit into the template).

So far, everywhere I've looked has only had templates for sale.

HELP PLEASE!!!

Thank you in advance...


P.S. I have MacroMedia Flash MX (Win 98SE)

Panning Up A Building
Thank you

Basically, Im trying to produce a building that gives the effect of scrolling up it in a game

Now I want rows of 3 windows that continually get produced, so they appear under the stage, then move up the stage, then get removed !

This will give the appearance of panning up the building.
so you get a grid like formation of windows in rows of 3.
Row appears, moves up, gets deleted

In these windows I will try and get different baddies to appear and do differnet things..(dont know how yet ???!!)

I could attach a sketch if it helps

Thanks again

Building A Better Pizza Pie
i'd like to make "build your own pizza pie" application. The idea is for a user to select a topping and build up an image of the pizza starting with the bread base. As selections are made they fly from the toppings bar and land on the pizza bread where they remain in view as other toppings are selected.

The attachment I'm sending is my attempt at making a conceptual model with 3 toppings. But hit the end of my envelope and that's why i'm seeking help here.

for what it's worth i get basic action scripting and think that one solution would be to stack movies and carry variables but i'm really not much better than basic intermediate level so even that stuff is pretty challenging

thanks in advance for your brainpower

Building A Catalog To Be Put On CD ROM
I have posted this message on a few forums and got a really great answer that took some effort. Unfortunately, Im afraid it might have been a little beyond the scope of what I understand. I am fairly comfortable with actionscript, but still not an expert by any means. Anyway, This question could be loaded so forgive me if it is overly broad. I am making a catalog of 600 products for a friend that will be put onto a cd rom. I previously made a small catalog of about 50 products for him that was just used on his website. Basically the catalog was structured as the following. On the left hand side was a navigation of 10 major catagories in button form. When a catagory was clicked a movie clip was loaded on the far right that contained a product list. I basically made every product a button in this list and then attached a goto and stop action to each which went to the frame for each individual product. For example if someone clicked on a lighting catagory it took them to a list of lights. They chose a light from the list in the movie clip and then it went to the frame which i had labeled for that specific product. The display of the product was loaded in the center of the stage and below it I had made text boxes (approximately 4) which contained name, description, uses and size. These text boxes were all basically filled with static text for each product and put on the individual frame for there listing. Basically this meant I had to fill in the info for 40 products individually and attach actions to 40 button(there were 40 products listed) all in all the same action copied over and over yet the frame number changed. I labeled 40 frames to make it easier on myself. Now, I think this sounds a bit labor intensive considering flash is probably capable of a better way. Also I have 600 products this time that will be on cd rom and that would be 600 frame labels, 600 button actions,etc etc. I would love to do this a more dynamic way. If there were someway to pull from a dataset or from a text document without having to remote that would be great. Like I said, this question is broad and a clearly defined answer might be impossible. But some feedback, suggestions, words of wisdom is basically what I seek. Thanks in advance.

Building Presentations
I would like to build a presentation like this one.
However, I am not sure what the best product is to do so.

A tutorial would be great too. I have not found a good one yet.

Many thanks for reading this post.

Building A Presentation App
(I posted this in the application forum - but that area seems pretty dead...)

Hi all,

I've been asked to create an app that would work as a shell for a presentation. The presentation is going to include about 12 powerpoint presentations, before each powerpoint presentation there is going to be an animation (either flash or video). I'm developing on the Mac platform. I've had a look around at various 3rd party products that broaden the scope of Flash for app development but they all seem to be Windows only. My Other alternative is using Director, but again the xtras for powerpoint control seem to be Windows only...can anyone offer any advice either on 3rd party plug-ins for Flash (or Director) or another app entirely that works on Mac OS X that could help me? - Please don't tell me to get a PC

Hey all. I'm busy building a portfolio website for graduation and I have two issues:

1)How do I make the entire movie(site) fit into the window (using the internet window's vertical scrollbar)? When I publish the movie and test the html file, only the top portion of the page appears and it doesnt "fill" the entire window, so half of whats on the page is gone.

(yes, i know I could have avoided the issue with a smaller background, but its not how i want it to go down :P)

2)When everything is all said and done, how do I upload my html file onto my site (I'm using startlogic.com to host it)?

I'm using Flash 8.

Any help would be rad.

I had the idea of selecting a small ball and make it move by using the arrow-keys. and the size of the balls getīs bigger. I had also the idea that there should be a white area ( like grass-area covered with snow) so when you roll the snowball the area turns green. So there are a limited amount of snow.
Is it somehow possible to take away the white from the area where you roll the ball?

[CS3] Site Building Help
Hey guys I wonder if someone can help me. I've been using swish for some years now and felt it was time I started using Flash so I thought I'd make a simple website for a online community. Trying to learn this on the fly, I find trial and error mixed in with the experience of others allows me to learn faster.

Anyway, I've essentially created 4 layers in Photoshop that I wanted to use as the base of the design.

The 4 elements

-background
-logo
-menu panel - the site navigation
-content panel - where page content would be displayed.

I've imported each object created and imported the images to "stage". I'm assuming the library lets me view everything within the document that's been important weather its displayed on the screen or not?

Next after some fiddling around I found the transition effect, specifically the ability to make my layers "fade in".

I've given the background 15 frames. Then the logo (with some text) fade in, followed by the menu and content panel 1 frame after each other. Which gives a nice flowing transition from left to right of the screen.

I've included a image to help demonstrate what I mean, here.

Now here's the bit I'm a bit puzzled by and where to go from here. What I now want to do is have the menu text pop up cascading down the menu panel with the fade in transition. So for example the text home, news, forums etc will pop up that i can convert to buttons.

Now, my logic would have me create a new layer with all the text needed for the menu/buttons. But if I did that how could I cascade the test through the fade in if its on the same layer?

I've briefly read into movie clips? Could I save what's currently done as a movie clip? Then create a new movie clip for the menu cascade? Or would it be easier to create a layer folder? Separating the "menu intro" to the text. I'd imagine that would allow me to replicate what I've done so far but with the text. i.e. a new layer for each button wanted with the transition effect?

cheers guys, any input would be welcome.

I'm guessing I'm doing this wrong, perhaps someone with msn messenger wouldn't mind pming me there details. I'll probably have more questions.

Building Tabs ...
Ok .. the skinny:

I have 3 tabs and a mainBox. I would like whatever the active tab is, to be on top of the mainBox, and the rest underneath.

Here's what I got:


Code:
tabSpacing = 3;
tabBegin = 518.5;
tabDent = 6;

tabX = 0;
tabY = 0;

var tabs:Array = new Array();
////////////////////////////////
tabs[0] = "Tab 1";
tabs[1] = "Tab 2";
tabs[2] = "Tab 3";
////////////////////////////////
startTab = 1;
////////////////////////////////

for (var i = 0; i<tabs.length; i++) {
chatTab = this.attachMovie("tab", "chatTab" + i, i);
tabW = chatTab._width - 7.4;
chatTab._x = tabBegin - (tabW + tabSpacing)*i;
chatTab._y = 6;

if(startTab == i) {
chatTab._y = 0;
}else {
chatBox.swapDepths(chatTab);
}

}
I'm not too sure what I'm doing wrong here ... and I haven't even got into clicking the tabs to make them active and on top! hmmm ...

I want to use the incriment variable to build a variable as so:

"Im"+number+"Var"

What do I need to do to be able to get the data of the variable I built and not the name.

Building Movies
I am looking for a good process to build websites.
For example:
Do I make my main movie have all the menus?
Do I put MCs on stage or do I call them all up by attachMovie.
Do I import all my movies on request?
Do I use lots of getURLs?
DO I build everything on one time line?
DO I put all my actionScript in one frame?
Do I create everything like legos so I can just place them where I need them.
What do I build first?
Is there a Collin Moock way to create movie?
I need a good practical movie building scheme.
I know a little about how to build movies but they are to chaotic.
Any Ideas?
How do you build you movies?
