Going Back to the main frame, from inside a movie clip time line.

In flash CS5 I want to go back to the main time line, from inside a movie clip button, so when i click the the movie clip it goes to another frame on the main time line..
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
Daniel Derrick

your can use _root to reference the main timeline from anywhere though that can lead to problems if your swf is loaded by another swf.  because of that eventuality, it would be better to use a relative path back to the main timeline.
so, from a movieclip's timeline (when the movieclip is on the main timeline), you can use _parent to reference the main timeline.
but even better would be to use no code on that movieclip's timeline and keep all your code on one timeline (the main one).

  • Attempt to move main timeline from inside a movie clip breaks menu buttons.

    I am attempting to have the main timeline move from a stopped position over a movie clip to frame 1, where my start menu is.
    The code I'm using does move the timeline but in doing so it somehow breaks the 4 buttons I have in frame 1.
    My code in the movie clip:
    stop()
    function replayMovie(event:MouseEvent):void
    MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop(1);
    Menu.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, replayMovie);
    My code in frame 1 of the main timeline:
    stop();
    function bo(event:MouseEvent):void
    gotoAndPlay(21)
    SoundMixer.stopAll()
    espesp.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bo);
    function ho(event:MouseEvent):void
    gotoAndPlay(31)
    SoundMixer.stopAll()
    espeng.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ho);
    function yo(event:MouseEvent):void

    function go(event:MouseEvent):void
    gotoAndPlay(51)
    SoundMixer.stopAll()

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    For the sake of space, I'll leave out all the package declarations and class declarations and just talk about the functions.
    First, the Game class, it has two functions.  The first one is the constructor function and it launches at the beginning of the game:  First the Game function:
    public function Game():void
    //Game code goes here
    }//Game
    We want to listen for someone to click the mouse on the MenuPage, so lets create a new MenuPage and add a listener to the button contiained within it.
    public function Game():void
    menuPage = new MenuPage;
    menuPage.startButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startGame);
    addChild(menuPage);
    }//Game
    You will notice that before I declared a variable var menuPage:MenuPage, but that's all I did was declare it.  I didn't really make a new instance of it, I just set aside space for it.  In the first line within the Game function, I'm actually turning that variable into a new instance of a MenuPage.
    We don't have a picture of this imaginary menuPage instance, but lets' assume that in our MenuPage MovieClip in the library, we created a SimpleButton called startButton.  Here, I'm adding an EventListener that patiently waits for someone to click that button.  Once we receive that event, Flash is told to call the startGame function.
    As you get better at this, you'll get into custom events, and the eventListener for the button will exist in the MenuPage class file, or even in another class file that you create just for the button.  Something like StartButton.as  But for now, we can do it as above.
    Now the startGame function:
              public function startGame(evt:MouseEvent):void
    //Remove the start Page
    //Add the zombie
    //Add the gun
    }//startGame
    And we'll replace those comments with real code.  It follows along with what we just did above.
    public function startGame(evt:MouseEvent):void
    zombie = new Zombie;
    addChild(zombie);
    gun = new Gun;
    addChild(gun);
    And we also want to clean up some by removing the menuPage, and throwing out the eventListener.
    public function startGame(evt:MouseEvent):void
    zombie = new Zombie;
    addChild(zombie);
    gun = new Gun;
    addChild(gun);
    menuPage.startButton.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.Click,startGame);
    removeChild(menuPage);
    }//startGame
    Now our Game class is complete.
    The Zombie Class
    public function zombieWalk(evt:Event):void
    this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,zombieWalk);
    this.x = this.x + 10;
    }//zombieWalk
    Notice we've added a function to the Zombie Class.
    The first function adds an EventListener to the zombie.  We can use the word this and actionScript knows we're talking about the zombie that the class is written for.  This listener fires off every frame.  If our FLA file is set to 12fps, then 12 times every second it will call on the zombieWalk function.
    The zombie walk function moves the zombie 10 pixels to the right every time the function is called.
    On a more advanced level, you'll want to add animation in the MovieClip to move the zombie legs.  You'll also want to use Timer events to space out how often the funtion fires and not ENTER_FRAME events.  And you'll want to use a static constant to establish how far the zombie moves.  We have it now set to 10 pixels, but that can get irritating if we want to change that value later.  But again, baby steps.
    And finally, the Gun class
    public function Gun():void
    this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fireGun);
    }//function
    public function fireGun(evt:MouseEvent):void
    this.gotoAndPlay(2);
    }//fireGun
    First we add an EventListener for when someone clicks on the gun.  Once this happens, the listener calls on the fireGun function.
    The fireGun function takes advantage of the frames within the Gun MovieClip.  Say we have three frames in the Gun MovieClip.  The first is just a picture of the gun.  The second is the gun with a flash coming out of the nozzle.  And the third is the gun at rest again.  The line this.gotoAndPlay(2) sends the gun to the second frame with the flash graphic.
    For this to work, each frame in the Gun MovieClip has to have some stop and play commands.
    But.. you said no code on our timeline!! Liar!
    I know.  This is the exception.  You will need basic stop() commands and gotoAndPlay commands to loop animations.  Any MovieClip that has more than one frame will need something to control it.
    So our Gun MovieCLip has the following:
    Frame 1: stop();
    Frame 2: no actionScript... and I mean nothing, not even the words, "no actionScript"
    Frame 3: gotoAndStop(1);
    This will loop the gun to the beginning and wait for the next time the user clicks the gun.
    Advanced features of the Gun class might include a Bullet.as sub-class that creates a bullet MovieClip to fly across the screen.  Sound to play when the shooting takes place.  Object collision detection to see if the bullet hits the target.  And a means by which a custom event will tell the Game.as class that a zombie has been hit and it should be removed from the stage.
    As you go down the rabbit hole of ActionScript 3, you will find yourself at a point where it's just a matter of getting the syntax right for all the built in functions and classes.  Arrays, Loaders, casting variable types.. all that stuff will come.
    I hope this has been helfpul.  It's been on my to-do list for a long time.  When I first started out, no one could provide me with basic answers for how all these classes and whatnot worked.  After teaching myself AS3 for 2 years and reading a gabillion books, I think I've gotten to a point where I'm pretty comfortable with it all.

  • Preventing the User from going back to the main page after logging out.

    Hi all,
    In my project I want to prevent the User from going back to the Main page, by clicking the back button of the browser, after the user has loggged out.I had invalidated the session so the user will not be able to do any operations, but he can vew the infos. I want to redirect to the login page if the user tries to go back using the back button after he has logged out.
    I tried the same in this forum after loging out. Surprisingly it is the same. I can browse through all the operations i did even after logging out from here.
    Is it not possible to do that in Servlets?Could somebody help?
    Thanks,
    Zach.

    Hi,
    You can use a servlet filter to do this , as it can interceptany request to your application you can decide to allow user access or not to any page/servlet.
    public class Test implements Filter{
         public void destroy() {
         public void doFilter(ServletRequest arg0, ServletResponse arg1, FilterChain arg2) throws IOException,
                   ServletException {
              System.out.println("filter");
              HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) arg0;
              if(!request.getRequestURI().contains("index")){ // set condition that will be checked to verify if the user is logged in
                   System.out.println("redirecting ... ");
                   RequestDispatcher d = arg0.getRequestDispatcher("/index.jsp");
                   d.forward(arg0, arg1);
              arg2.doFilter(arg0, arg1);
         public void init(FilterConfig arg0) throws ServletException {
    }in you web.xml add :
    <filter>
              <filter-name>test</filter-name>
              <filter-class>test.Test</filter-class>
         </filter>
         <filter-mapping>
              <filter-name>test</filter-name>

  • When I try to play a song on my iPod Touch, it shows the information screen for the song and then skips to a new song but then goes back to the main playlist page without ever playing a song! Help!

    When I try to play a song on my iPod Touch, it shows the information screen for the song and then skips to a new song but then goes back to the main playlist page without ever playing a song! Help!

    thats tough man, yeah exchanging it is the best option. But why do people always leave a message saying" i'll probably just by an ipod" and it's usually followed by, "even though i don't like apple or ipod" . I mean fine, if u feel like giving up on the zen micro thats fine, i personally don't care if you're going to buy an ipod. for god sakes ipod isn't even the next alternati've mp3 players, theres plenty. Are u just trying to get the creative people saying "oh man we lost another one to ipod" cuz i'm sure they don't lose sleep over u wanting to buy an ipod instead of a zen. *done ranting*

  • Hi, I've been playing Smurf's village for a year now and just last week, i tried to get into the app but it keeps rejecting and goes back to the main page.  Is there any reason for this?  I've been updating the app everytime and now it's not letting me in

    Reset the device, restart the device, try downloading any other app.
    All of these are basic steps that could have been found by a simple search of the forums as a resolution for the issue.

  • HT4623 I have an older IPAD and it is no longer allowing me to see general settings, it flicks out of programs and goes back to the main screen.  Is it time to throw it away?

    My iPad is going back to the main screen with many of my applications.  I have several desk tops, laptop and a Nook Color and none of them have any problems, so it is not my internet.  Any idea how to fix the iPad or should I just toss it?

    If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
    http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • I can't open any apps on my iPad. Everything goes back to the main menu. Anybody have a solution to this?

    Has anybody got some advice? I can't open any apps on my iPad. Everything goes back to the main menu immediately.

    Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Note:
    Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use...

    Send a bug report. And wait for an update.
    OR
    uninstall and re-instal the game all over.

    E-mail whether hotmail or g-mail, will blank out as I click on links within the mail.  It goes back to the home screen.  more and more often, the mail folders just vanish, and I have to go to settings and re-click "done" on each acct., even though all are filled in properly.  started after I upgraded to 7.0.4

  • I have installed Angry Birds Season and the Icon appears but when I select that game it goes back to the main screen???

    I have installed Angry Birds Seasons and the Icon appears but when I select the game it starts to open but then goes back to the home screen.  What to do???

    Try closing the app completely and then see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Angry Bird Seasons app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    A third option if neither work is to delete the app and then re-download it
