Button to play outro before new intro

I am building an animated menu in CS3 using AS 3.0. I have a
menu of four buttons. For simplicity, let's say A_btn,B_btn,C_btn
and D_btn
Now on the timeline I have labels that have intro and outro
animations for each.
Let's say the lables are labled: Ain, Aout, Bin, Bout, Cin,
Cout, Din, Dout
Ok, so I have the buttons all playing the intros just fine.
How do I get them to play the outro before moving on to the
appropriate intro? Note: each intro and outro is completely
different and independant. In other words, I'm not using the same
transition for each one.
Here's a link to a test project file that shows the buttons
playing the intros.
Click
Here to see example
Here's the current AS3:
stop();
function onHomeClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("Ain");
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onHomeClick);
function onAboutClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("Bin");
about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onAboutClick);
function onWorkClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("Cin");
work_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onWorkClick);
function onContactClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("Din");
contact_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
onContactClick);
I tried adding this after stop and before function, but it
doesn't do anything.
var gotoA:Array = new Array();
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f);
function f(e:MouseEvent){
gotoA.push("Aout");
gotoAndPlay("Bin");
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

  • How to add a button to play 1 minute audio?

    I would like to add a button to a web page. Clicking the button would play about one minute of audio. I will appreciate very much if someone could help me accomplish this. Thanks greatly in advance. Tom

    As a caution,
    1 of the absolute WORST things you can do in web design is to have an audio file autoload and play as soon as a website loads. This is incredibly annoying to most web users.
    I am not saying you are planning this, but consider the following situations:
    1) A user is listening to an audio broadcast of the local news while surfing the web, or his favorite cd. All of a sudden, what they are trying to listen to is unexpectedly overridden by sounds from a web page, that they didn't ask to hear.
    2) A user is planning her wedding, while at work. She logs onto a photography website quickly to view some pictures that a co-worker had said were great, and all of a sudden the people in the next 20 cubicles are distracted by music blaring out.
    3) Your aunt finally gets her young, collicky child to sleep. To unwind, she surfs the web for a bit. She decides to pop over and read your blog, and all of a sudden the music breaks the silence, waking up the child.
    Audio and video on a webpage is great, but should ALWAYS be at the control of the end user.
    Cheers!

  • Rollover buttons that play a movie clip.

    Hello,
       I am new to Flash and I am trying to accomplish a simulation such as this example, http://www.its-about-time.com/investinesart/coalplantvirtualtour.swf. I have all of my movie clips done, but how do I tell a rollover button to play a specific movie clip? I also want to have all the movie clips to play simultaneously via a rollover button as shown in the example. I've attached a captured image of my timeline, if that helps. I've tried everything so far, but nothing is working! What is the simplest way of doing this?
    I have this inside one of the movie clips (mc_2) in a seperate layer under - (actions)
    RO_btn.onRollover = function(){
    mc_2.play();
    On the main timeline I have an actions layer with this:
    stop();
    Thinking that this may stop all of my movie clips but it doesn't.
    Should I make an actions layer in each movie clip with this syntax huh? stop();?
    I'm frustrated!!
    Thanks, if you can help!
    MG

    Hi,
    I have made something that you are looking for.
    It will be of help to you.
    basically you will have to create a few movie clips namely:
    2 buttons: (name them a_btn, b_btn, c_btn, d_btn, e_btn)
    3 movie clips (I am taking example image1_mc, image2_mc, image3_mc)
    in each of these movieclips.place 2 frames and on second frame put your movieclip(one in one).on both the frames put stop()
    now click on a_btn and write this script
    on (rollOver) {
    _root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
    _root.image2_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
    _root.image3_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
    on (rollOut) {
        _root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
        _root.image2_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
        _root.image3_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
    with this all 3 animations will work simultaneously. if you need to run any one of the movieclips at a time the you can address that mc in particular
    .Say if you want only 1 mc to move at a time then put this on  btn 2
    on (rollOver) {
    _root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
    on (rollOut) {
        _root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
    .Dont forget to give proper instance names to movieclips.(they are in properties panel.)
    Cheers!

  • How do I include an entire hour-long performance on a DVD and also have menu buttons for playing isolated sections of the performance?

    How do I include an entire hour-long performance on a DVD and also have menu buttons for playing isolated sections of the performance?
    So far, I've already done the individual menu buttons for sections of the performance. How do I set up some kind of "play" button that will play the video of the entire performance straight through? Will this be too much material for the DVD to hold? Does the program recognize and not replicate material to save space? If so, will it interfere with that if  I add edits to individual sections that will not be in the video of the entire performance?   

    Hi
    If You only need
    • Play movie in full
    • Start into the movie at specific places e.g. Chapters - then play to movie ends
    Then this is fairly simple - Just add Chapters in Your Video-editor (iMovie or FinalCut)
    (some quirks to keep in mind - No Chapter mark in any transition or within 2 sec from it - AND - only Lettera A to Z and 0 to 9 - no other letters/symbols at all)
    BUT
    If You want to
    • Play full movie (with or without Chapters)
    • Play an individual Chapter then return to Menu
    This function is not standard in iDVD - but has to be faked one way or another.
    Please read my notes on this and be aware of the 60 minutes / 12 minutes limit in iDVD (THIS is including the Menu and it can take 15 minutes or more from the movie time)
    Play all resp one chapter at a time
    Play All Button
    1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
    2. It can be faked in several ways
    • Easiest and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
    Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
    Cons: Tried this in iMovie’11 by Exporting out each part as a full Quality QT.mov then Importing back into new events and putting these into a new project (Play All project). Resulting DVD had Audio that was OK (as parts) - BUT the picture was very bad and standing photo were cut of in hight. So the Play All movie has to be created from same material and exactly in the same way as the individual parts + then Chapters has to be set to match.
    • It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
    give the function of a Play All button - Tested - and ONE HAS TO un-cheque - Scale pictures to TV-Safe area else it will be a black frame all around and a small picture !
    Cons: BUT - When tested with music videos - the same video on main Menu played nicely with OK Audio. The Play All version in SlideShow had a signifcant Distortion - as on telephone or worse.
    Mike Evangelist1
    You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.
    3. Using another program to do this e.g.. Roxio Toast™ where there is a Play All button option.
    Summary
    a. Making a Play All movie with same care as the individual Part movies - gives a very Good Result
    b. Using Roxio Toast™ - also an usable way to go

  • Why not update Tutorials before new Releases?

    Why not update the Tutorials before new releases?
    As a newcomer to Dreamweaver, downloading the practice files as advised and despite trying to follow the Tutorial for Bayside Beat, each and every step had a completely different Interface, Menu or Cursor Point for what should be a simple step by step guide!
    The guide is pointless to anyone downloading the latest version of Dreamweaver to use for the first time in relation to the Tutorial that accompanies it. Despite the answers provided to questions from other members, the differences are not as plain and easy as the responses provided to newcomers of Dreamweaver.

    I agree that they should have updated the tutorial to match the new updates.  But the differences weren't that bad that you couldn't do the tutorial.  I was able to figure my way through the tutorial but instead of completing it in 45min.  It took me 4hours.  I will list some of the differences that I saw in the interface:
    - Title box moved down to the bottom of the property inspector
    - Live and Design key are one instead of two separate buttons
    - There were no expanded or compact view for the CSS design box (if there is one, let me know because I didn't find it)
    - Changing the list-style-type property is under Text not Others (This is when you remove the bullets from the navigation bar)
    - The tutorial where you have to remove the blue after you floated the two columns, there are no selection for Left, you have to manually input it in. Example: Select Footer, under Other select Clear and the box next to it type in Left.
    I found that it was pretty helpful to print off the extended version of this tutorial in text.  It goes over more things in depth and cover other design elements that wasn't in the videos.  Here's the link: Learn Dreamweaver | Adobe Developer Connection

  • How do i actionscript my flash button to play the sound while being transfered to another url?

    Hi!
    As the title says:
    How do i get my flash button to play my sound when i click on
    it while being transfered to another url?
    I did get it to work, but only when i set the script to
    "_BLANK". When i clicked the button then it played the sound and
    opened the url in a new window. I want it to be in the same window
    and still play the whole sound.
    Now i get just 1 or 2 sec then when im transfered, it stops
    playing the sound.
    I hope this explains it..... if any typo....its because im
    Swedish =)
    Thanks in advance!

    If you are jumping to another URL using the same window you
    cannot have a sound start on the press of a button and that sound
    to continue on.
    Reason
    You are removing all trace of the sound and the swf that
    contains that sound file.
    Work arounds
    1.Take a look at "frames". This way you are keeping the
    container page and opening another page inside of that page.
    2. Div's. again you are importing a page into a particular
    area yet keeping the swf, with the sound playing, in the parent
    frame.

  • Stop random button animations playing

    Hi. I'm sure this is a common problem, but can't find any
    answers...
    I have created a menu structure with buttons that play an
    animation on mouseover and stop on mouse out (thus returning to
    frame 1). Only problem is, sometimes when the page is loaded an
    animation will play without any interaction, also if the mouse is
    moved too quick, the mouseout code isn't triggered and the
    animation keeps playing.
    How do I stop this from happening? Thank you.

    Change it to start on click and stop on click on a different
    button.
    Or, create a movieClip with a button1 on frame one and a
    different button2
    on frame 2.
    When the user clicks button1, gotoAndStop frame 2.
    When a user clicks button2, gotoAndStop frame 1.
    On frame 1 put the code:
    myAnimation.play(); //the instance name of your animation
    On frame 2 put the code;
    myAnimation.stop();

    What codec do I need to add to play a video that is called .avi
    It will not play on my new Macbook Pro since I put it into the movies section of my launchpad.  When it was on the desktop It worked fine.  I moved it back to the desktop and it still does not work.

  • I bought a movie (Avengers hd) but it can´t no longer be played in my itunes, it says that it needs a hdcp screen, but i´ve played it before, and if i want to download it again it´s requiered payment

    Hi guys, hope u can help me, i bought a movie from itunes a few months ago, and i´ve played it before in my laptop (Toshiba Satellite L755D) with windows 7 home premium, i have my Bill in my e-mail, but when i try to play it now, it won´t! a message comes back with a legend saying something like this: "To play avengers hd you must have an integrated screen that allows hdcp" but i´ve played it before tons of times!!! whats wrong..? and when i go to the store and point an error on the selected item (avengers hd) it says that my search has no results!!! please help me :-( is not fair that i spend almost 20$ for something that it´s just not working anymore!!!

    Movies are not always available for redownload.  Is there a reason why you deleted it instead of simply transferring the purchase to the computer and then removing it from the iDevice?

  • No "before new record saved" trigger event in workflow definition ?

    Hello,
    I have following problem: I have to make a simple integration, where products have information about available quantity of given product . Assume we have field - it is called "Available amount" and it tells how many products are on stock. Now suppose we have created an opportunity, and we want to add Opportunity Product Revenue - we're selecting product and then quantity. I want to make OCOD to display message and prevent from adding opportunity product revenue, when its quantity is greater than "Available amount" field which is present in associated product record. I've created small C# application and used workflows to create Integration events. It works - but not exaclty how I want it - when I add a new record the workflow generates integration event - but I'd like to generate integration event before a record is created, also I'd like to show a notification from OCOD. But for "revenue" we do not have a trigger event called for example : "before new record saved" - we have only "when new record saved" and "before modified record saved".

    Hi,
    From your requirement, it seems you, want some kind of check. Did you try puting this validation on field level, i guess you would need to join fields and compare in field validation. So, whenever user creates a new record this validation kicks and user is notified of the error.

  • Web Viewer - getting buttons to open in a new tab or window

    I am trying to get a button to open in a new tab or window in the DPS web viewer.
    The options when creating a button are:
    Open link in folio
    Open link in device browser
    Both which do not work when we export the web viewer.

    Any help with this issue would be highly appreciated.

    There is a parameter on creating the iFrame called externalLinksOpen. They can set it to 'window', as it defaults to inline, which opens it in the current window. It's documented here:
