Exporting action script in 2nd frame

I have a preloader in frame one so I export frame for classes
in frame two in the publishing settings. I have a scrolling
component in the .fla and when I set up the linkage for the
scrollable movie clip, it exports into the 1st frame. How do I tell
Flash to export action script for component in 2nd frame? Because
of the conflict with the publishing settings set at frame 2, the
scroll bar won't work unless I publish export action script into
frame one.
Please help,
Darryl

Thank you for replying. I was instructed that it is better to
have the action script load in the second frame if my preloader is
in the first frame in order for the page to cache faster on the
users PC. So in the Publish Settings, in the Flash Tab under
Settings, I was informed to "export frame for classes in "2".
The action script for the compenent in the Library only gives
me the choice of it exporting in frame 1. And because they do not
correspond, the scroll bar will not appear unless I change the
Publish settings to export in frame 1 and I will get this error
message Error opening URL
"file:///D|/Flash%20Studio%208/nams/scroll".
My goal was to increase the download speed of the Flash page.
Is there a way to get the compenent Action script to export in
Frame 2? The only option box through the Library Linkage is Frame
1.
Thank you again for responding,
Darryl

Flash cs6 createjs not exporting action script

Hi ,
I had installed cs6 in my laptop(trail version). Basically I am Action Script 3.0 programmer. I try to develop one application and create js file. Using programming I did simple drag and drop functionality. its working in swf file. Once I publish to js its not working. And I faced the text issues. Can you guys let me know that i did wrong.
Find the attached test files.
Thanks,

CreateJS won`t translate your actionscript to javascript.

Action Script for next frame

Hi,
I'm making an interactive world map.
The idea is that the mouse rolls over a country which makes
the country goes red and the countries name appears. I have got
this to work fine, but I am trying to use some script so that when
the mouse clicks down and releases on the country, another screen
appears which is a screen with information about the country (the
original screen needs to disappear - it's not a box of text which
will appear but a whole new screen)
Can anyone advise? I have tried to use a basic 'on release go
to' script but it doesn't work.
Thanks very much.

Thanks, I've got this to work now, but when it advances to
the next frame it keeps looping back to the first frame. I've tried
using stop() on the frame I am advancing to, gotoandStop(2) in the
first frame and a few other things I have found in the looping
problem threads on this forum. I'm publishing as a flash movie not
HTML.
Any thoughts?

Using Flach CS4 and action script 2.0 how do I advance to a specific frame of the main timeline when a movie clip instance come to the end of its timeline?

Using Flach CS4 and action script 2.0 how do I advance to a specific frame of the main timeline when a movie clip instance come to the end of its timeline?

code on the last frame of your movieclip instance:
_root.gotoAndStop('whatever_frame'); // will work unless this swf is loaded into another swf. in that situation, you should use a relative path to the main timeline (eg, _parent or _parent._parent etc).

Increasing the speed for a certian frames in Flash Cs5 using Action Script 3

I have 60 frames I want to increase the fps value for frames from 20 to 30, and the remaining frames fps value should remain the same
Using Action Script 3 or Action Script 2
Thank you and regards

I have found a script online
Q: How can I speed the frame rate or slow it down when the movie is playing? For example, I would like to slow the frame rate from the default of 20 fps to 15 fps from frame #80 to frame #150. Then frame rate should speed back up to 20 fps after frame #151, (fps = frames per second).
A: One way is to use “interval”. An example of changing the speed of the movie from frame #80 to frame #150 is shown below.
Create a key frame at frame #80 and place this script:
var fps:Number = 80;
var intervalID:Number = setInterval(this, “advanceFrame”, 1000/fps);
stop();
function advanceFrame() {
clearInterval(intervalID);
gotoAndStop(_currentframe+1);
if (_currentframe<151) {
intervalID = setInterval(this, “advanceFrame”, 1000/fps);
} else {
play();
I have changed the values from 80 to 20 and currentframe value to 30
I get syntax error
at :
intervalID = setInterval(this, “advanceFrame”, 1000/fps);
and
var intervalID:Number = setInterval(this, “advanceFrame”, 1000/fps);

Batch export for action script?

Is there some way I can apply the Linkage>Export for
action script function to multiple items in the library at one
time?
Thanks.

if you can, you'll still need to give each an instance name
to refer to when using it.

Flash Newbie needs help with Movie Clips/Action Scripting

Hi -
I'm having a problem with my movie clips playing
simultaneously and cannot, for the life of me, figure out what I
have done wrong. I'm new to flash, so I may have set something up
incorrectly, but here's what I have so far:
11 layers, total: 1 layer with 10 control buttons, each
button with the following actionscript:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(85);
Where the number changes in relation to which keyframe the
next movie is on.
I have 10 movies, total, but they are only movie clips,
essentially photo slide shows with audio, made all in the library.
The problem happens when I click on the second or third
button. Not only does the movie that I have selected begin to play,
but all of the previous clips do as well, so it all sounds quite
garbled. I don't know what I am missing in the action script, as my
Action Layer has a stop command on it at each keyframe where there
is a new clip to play.
I have tried to add a stopAllSounds command, but I'm afraid
that doesn't do anything because it is not a "sound file" per se,
playing in the timeline.
I'm at the end of my rope and really need some help in
figuring this one out. My project is hanging in the balance on
this, as I have scripted everything else correctly and it runs
beautifully.
Please help!
Thanks,
Caroline

Each layer has a blank keyframe before and after each
movieclip. Each movie clip is at a different frame. Even with the
blank keyframes added, the second video starts to play and then the
first video begins to play. Same happens if I click on the third
button. Third plays, and starts 1st and 2nd shortly thereafter. Is
there an action script I can put in that will tell the timeline
that, when a button is clicked, no matter where the movieclip is,
it will stop and start the newly selected movieclip?

Action Script Import

Hey Guys I love the idea and I know it is a daunting task to convert .fla into html5. I am working on removing any action script in any of my .fla files so that, 1: they may convert, but in doing so I realized that It may be possible to create a seperate stand alone action script...place it in the server, and the import said script into html5 the similar way you would when calling an image href, but the problem is... How if at all would I be able to import script into html5, and/or java for each individual scene related to a large .fla? My thoughts are I would need to create a new individual (Java class's) related to each individual action script scene and then import those into the html5 code! I am on track with the thought, or am I just crazy...
In order to accheive this I would need to import the action script standalone into the root folder any recommendations?
For example: stop(); frame 10 scene 1 layer Bck_Ground
Then file name would be: layer 1 Bck_Ground.AS
Java class 1Bckground. js
.requires(
bck_ground.as
This only as an eample of thought not real code!
and or the ssame ideal in HTML5?
Could this work?
Thanks James

Then no offense to Adobe, but this to me is an intermediate way of creating an animated gif...Granted if I wanted to create a animated gif from.swf I have to go through several steps, but at least I don't get the annoyance of ".fla not supported"! My input to Adobe in your Wallaby creation is this...Please consider the creation of a re-write enging for pre-existing action script that will interpelate the data of each scene, and layer directly from the .fla, and then import it into several native languages that the user can select such as java, html5, possibly C, xml, and be compatible for Mobile Web, IOS, SDK, and Stand-Alone Java!, and export all media assets into a seperate file folder with the a fore mentioned extensions placed and housed with coresponding media...After-all none of us Flash Heads really want to re-write code the hours of code we spent developing for a product that can't or won't be seen by mobile applicatioins. If you can do that I would pay my top dollar for it...and I would think everybody else would agree with me! Thanks for your hard work...keep plugging along!

Help with Action Scripting

I have been developing a site and I am having issues with
something that is probably very simple. I have created several
movieclips that expand and contract as you roll over them. I wanted
to make a function/method so that when the user clicks, it takes
them to another scene in this movie. Here is the action script I am
using:
on(release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 9");
Unfortunately, this is not working. I thought that perhaps
the on(release) method wouldn't work on these movie clips based on
the action script I was already using to expand/contract the boxes,
but the following code works just fine:
on(release) {
getURL("home.html");
I'm stumped. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to what I
should do? Here is the web address of the page I'm working on, it
has the movie I'm having an issue with.
AndrewJW.com. The
first image on the left next to the word photography links to
another page of the site. The image of the pearl ring next to that
is the one that will not advance to another scene in the movie.
Thanks for any and all input.
Andrew

Jeckyl>
erm... ok i've to admit my mistake in 2nd script.
_root.gotoAndPlay() takes only ONE argument,
_root.gotoAndPlay("Scene 9", 1); won't works.
Thank for reminding me
actually this make me confuse sometime,
from the code hint in flash,
for
gotoAndPlay,
gotoAndPlay(
frame);
gotoAndPlay(
scene,
frame);
for
MovieClip.gotoAndPlay,
MovieClip.gotoAndPlay(
frame);
so, gotoAndPlay can accept 2 arguments only when use without
"something dot" in front.
if Andrew's script is attached to an instance of button
symbol, we can use
on(release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 9", 1);
Since Andrew will attach the script to an instance of
movieclip, he can only use:
on(release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 9");
where he have to give the label to the 1st frame of "Scene 9"
same name with the scene.
Am i right Jeckyl?
I heard many people said "scene"+"script"="buggy", but some
time I get it "works". What is your opinion?

Error message with Action Script 2.0 file

Hi,
I am trying to edit an old flash file that uses Action Script 2.0. I am using CS6 and keep getting the following error message after publishing:
Scene 1, Layer 'AS', Frame 1, Line 5, Column 29
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type int to an unrelated type String.
Can you suggest any fixes or workarounds? I also have Flash 4.0. Can i downsave the file? If so, how?
Thanks!

Thank you. I think that did fix the original two errors. But now upon test of the file, I get some new errors:
Symbol 'MoneySlider', Layer 'AS', Frame 1, Line 7, Column 3
1120: Access of undefined property ratio.
Symbol 'MoneySlider', Layer 'AS', Frame 1, Line 7, Column 20

1120: Access of undefined property _root.
Symbol 'MoneySlider', Layer 'AS', Frame 1, Line 9, Column 27

And on the MoneySlide layer in Actions:

this.loadBar._width = 0;
this.dragger.ratio.text= "$0";
dragger.onPress=function(){
          this.startDrag(true,0,0,line._width,0);
          this.onEnterFrame=function(){
                    ratio=Math.round(number(_root.transitBenefitLimit/100)*(this._x/(line._width/10 0)));
                    loadBar._width = Math.round(this._x);
                    dragger.ratio.text= "$"+ratio;
dragger.onRelease=dragger.onReleaseOutside=stopDrag;

Using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

Thanks for your swift response.
That sounds like a good solution, but the code I have on frame 2 is this
timer = 0;
countup = function(){
timer++;
countupInterval = setInterval(countup,100);
If I added the same actionscript to frame 3 which has a dynamic textbox with a variable timer attached wouldn't it just put the timer back to 0? What I want is the last known value that was given when it was in frame 2.
I am thinking of temple run here, I am trying to caculate the total distance(set in the timer variable) from the previous try.
Hope this makes sense.

Action Script to add MC as sub-pages ??

Alright please help.. I have tried everything, been fooling
around with this in the past 5 hours and its not going anywhere :(
. Here is what i have. :
I have 6 menu buttons... Button 4 is what i am concentrating
on.
at the moment here is the current action script of button 4 :
--CODE---
//-----this first few lines just controls the button
animation --
on (rollOver) {
if (_root.link<>4) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
if (_root.link<>4) {
gotoAndPlay("s2");
//-----end of button animation-----
on (release) {
_root.scroller.scroller.gotoAndStop(3); // I understand this
calls for fram 3 in an mc within an mc.
if (_root.anim==true) { // not really sure where this means
if (_root.link<>4) { // if value of _root.link
<> 4 then activate the following code
_parent["but"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2"); // I kind of
understand this part, i know it has to do with playing the button
animation, but i am stuck where it says "but" + _root.link .
_root.link = 4; // value of root.link
_root.all.play();
ok so basically, from what i can figure out what this action
script does is : somehow it calls out a mc called "all action page"
and the contents inside this mc are two layers. one layer is just a
stop frame, and the other layer has multiple frames, each frame in
the layer are each different mc's .. the _root.value is the value
of each frame, for example if i change the value to 2 or 3 it will
load frame 2 or 3 within the "all action page" mc..
now my question, is is there any way i can replicate this
script for the use of button 4 ?? i know i can just keep adding new
frams and mc's to the current "all action page" and just keep
changing the value that corresponds to the frame number, but i
would like to make it more neater and structured incase if i need
to change anything. any suggestions ??

FLASH MX 2004 action script question

Hi!
I need to create an script for a basic function; when mouse goes over a moveclip, that works also link, I want it to trigger an invisible red dot on a nerby map. I have created a movieclip and named it "red", it's a 1 sec clip with nothing in the beginning and a red dot in the end. I want this dot to trigger and show only when mouse goes over this specific link, otherwise it must be invisible.
I know this is pretty basic stuff and I have done this before few years back but I have forgotten how to do it and need help now.
Any help would be very much appreciated :-)
Kim

I still need help, this problem is little more complicated;
I can manage making the red dot visible and invisible by triggering roll over and roll out on a button.
The problem is, I have a navbar which is line of flags made to a movie clip, with 5 invisible buttons. These buttons are configured to do three different actions; get URL, trigger a light effect and a movement effect.
Now I need this invisible button to trigger my red dot also so that when mouse is over a certain flag a red dot appears on a map on the correct location.
I have the red dot on a new layer. It has instance name "redDot" and on the very first frame of this red button layer, I have action script that says: redDot._visible = false;
This works as it should and the dot is invisible when the movie has loaded.
I need to make this invisible button to trigger the visibility of my red dot, and I have tried to add the code:
on (rollOver) {
redDot._visible = true;
on (rollOut) {
redDot._visible = false;
to this invisible button, but it dosent work, furthermore it affects the other functions of the button/movie clip, which were working fine before.
Here is the code attached to this invisible button so far:
on (release) {
getURL(/:url1);
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("sec");
I have the URL:s on an external text file.
So my question is; where do I add the action script to make it visible when moving the mouse over this invisible button? To my understanding, it should go in the same place as the other code that is working, but I'm doing something wrong...
I tried to do this:
on (release) {
getURL(/:url1);
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2)
redDot._visible = true;
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("sec")
redDot._visible = false;
But it is wrong, I also tried like this:
on (release) {
getURL(/:url1);
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("sec");
on (rollOver) {
redDot._visible = true;
on (rollOut) {
redDot._visible = false;
But it makes the other functions that worked to stop working.
I also tried to give the invisible button an instance name and do it like this:
invisible.on (rollOver) {
redDot._visible = true;
invisible.on (rollOut) {
redDot._visible = false;
And put them in the actions layer of button movie clip but nothing works.
Flash is really giving me a headache now...
To conclude, I made a simple test button, put it on the scene somewhere and and attached the rollOver and rollOut codes, targeting the "redDot" and it works fine, the button didn't need a instance name to work. I don't understand why I can't make it to work with the invisible button where it should be.
I hope this clarifies the point and I can get some help with this and sorry for bothering again with this problem.
Oh and I use old Flash MX 2004.
Thanks
Kim

New to action script 3 and am really confused

Hello and thank you in advance for helping if you can. I have a website banner that I made in flash. Everything works great and the last thing I need to do is add some script to it. One code is simple the stop action. So I added a new layer, called it actions and then clicked on the last frame inserted a blank keyframe and then opened the action window and typed in stop(); It worked great the banner cycled through once then stopped.
Now here comes the part that has me stumped. I need to make this banner link to an external website. so this is what I did. On the actions layer I clicked the first frame and opened the actions window, Oh first I have a block of text converted to symbol (movie clip) and named the instance click_mc, then in the actions script window this is what I typed
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.mojaveampworks.com/dirtyboy/DirtyBoy/Dirty_Boy.html");
click_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(link);
click_mc.buttonMode = true;
Now when I run the movie it doesn't run at all. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I'm ready to through this whole project out the window. Sorry if this question is redundant but I am new with action script.
thanks

Hi Ned and thank you for responding.
