How to do you control lower levels from the Stage?

How to you control lower levels from the Stage?
I have a button on the main stage and I have a symbol that has another symbol inside that I want to control that timeline or label.
I have had success with going one level deep but not two or three deep.
sym.getSymbol("symbol01").stop("label01");
Any help would be great!
Thanks.

Can you explain the hierachy of your symbols? By this I mean, name of your symbol and any symbol inside and any symbol inside nested symbol and what event you are triggering from where?

  • How do you remove a symbol from the stage in Edge animate?

    Hello-
    I'm wondering how to remove a symbol from the stage in Edge Animate so you can jump to another place in the timeline.  In Flash, the symbol was only on the stage for the amount of frames you indicated.  Not sure how it works here.
    For example, I have 2 buttons on my first screen with some text that animates in.  I want the button click to take the user to another section in the timeline or (basically another scene, like in Flash)  that contains different content.  If I change the visibility the buttons are still there and will ( I assume) create problems when other elements are placed on top. 
    Or is the only way with code.  If that is the case what would that code be?
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thank you!

    What I usually do, is, once you have everything set up in the scene you are done with. highlight it all
    right click
    group elements in DIV
    Now all those items act as 1 group and then you give it a properties name, much like a symbol.
    THEN you can refer to that scene name and move it anywhere or hide it and slide in another scene that has the content for that next scene.
    basically you take all the elements that make up 1 scene, gruop it up, name it, and then in the code for the button say something like:
    on click:
    scenename.play(framenumber);
    that will then animate that scene according to any animation you gave it, such as moving to the left, off stage. while moving scene 2 that you create into the stage.
    or just have something like this hide it
    sym.$("scenename").hide();
    sym.$("scene2name").show();
    but if you do that, make sure in your CompositionReady code you hide all scenes EXCEPT the 1st one, so the user doesnt see them all instanatly anyway.

  • How to effectively remove a loaded SWF from the stage?

    I can not figure out a proper coding to remove a loded SWF from the stage.
    Here is my set up.
    I have a layout segmented into labeled section. In the section labeled "products" I have a layout consisting of product images acting as buttons which bring a user to another labeled section "prdctsPopUps"
    In the "prdctsPopUps" section I have placed an instance of LoaderMax placed into an mc container. Placing LoaderMax into an mc container automatically resolved an issue of clearing loaded SWFs from stage when I come back to "products" section.
    I specified the variable in the "products" section with the following set up:
    var sourceVar_ProductsPopUps:String;
    function onClickSumix1PopUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
                        sourceVar_ProductsPopUps="prdcts_popups/sumix1-popup_tl.swf";
                        gotoAndPlay("prdctsPopUps");
    So each button has its own "....swf" URL and they all open fine and I can come back to "products" section without any issues.
    However inside the swf (which loads through LoaderMax which is placed into an mc) there are other buttons which bring a user to labeled section "xyz". Which also functions properly. It opens as it is supposed to be and without any previously loaded "...swf" on the stage.
    At the labeled section "xyz" there is a limited set of buttons repeating from section "products" which has to bring a user back to the same set up in the "prdctsPopUps" labeled section and open a corresponding "...swf" .
    However only the last opened "...swf" will appear in that section. Effectively the one which was originally opened from the "prdctsPopUps" section and not the one which was supposed to be opened from the "xyz" section.
    I can not understand why it would work from one labeled section and not from another. I can not figure out on which section which code/function needed to be placed.
    Here is the set up from a button from the "xyz" section whcih supposed to bring a user to the same "prdctsPopUps" section but to load a different "...swf"
    var sourceVar_ProductsPopUps_fromXYZ:String;
    function onClick_floralytePopUp_fromXYZ(event:MouseEvent) :void {
                        sourceVar_ProductsPopUps_fromXYZ="prdcts_popups/floralyte-popup_tl.swf";
                        gotoAndPlay("prdctsPopUps");
    Here is the code set up for the LoaderMax from the "prdctsPopUps" section:
    var loaderProductPopUps:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader(sourceVar_ProductsPopUps,
                                                                                                        estimatedBytes:5000,
                                                                                                        container:holderMovieClip,
                                                                                                        onProgress:progressHandler,
                                                                                                        onComplete:completeHandler,
                                                                                                        centerRegistration:true,
                                                                                                        alpha:1,
                                                                                                        scaleMode:"none",
                                                                                                        width:540,
                                                                                                        height:730,
                                                                                                        crop:true,
                                                                                                        autoPlay:false
    function progressHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void{
              progressBarPopUp_mc.gradientbarPopUp_mc.scaleX = loaderProductPopUps.progress;
    function completeHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void{
              var loadedImage:ContentDisplay = event.target.content;
              TweenMax.to(progressBarPopUp_mc, 1.5, {alpha:0, scaleX:0.25, scaleY:0.25});
    loaderProductPopUps.load();
    Is there something which needs to be imported, or specific function needs to be specified in a specific labeled section?

    actually, i think you'll need to use something like:
    var loaderProductPopUps:SWFLoader;
    if ((loaderProductPopUps){
    if(loaderProductPopUps.content)){
       loaderProductPopUps.unload();
    loaderProductPopUps= new SWFLoader(sourceVar_ProductsPopUps, //the value of sourceVar_ProductsPopUps allows to load mulitple SWFs from the products page.
                                                                                                         estimatedBytes:5000 ,
                                                                                                         container:holderMov ieClip,// more convinient and easier to manage if to place the LoaderMax into an empty mc (holderMovieClip)
                                                                                                                                                                         // if not will work as well. Then the line container:holderMovieClip, has to be replaced with container:this,
                                                                                                                                                                         // can be any size, can not be scaled as it distorts the content
                                                                                                         onProgress:progress Handler,
                                                                                                         onComplete:complete Handler,
                                                                                                         centerRegistration: true,
                                                                                                         //x:-260, y:-320, //no need for this is if used: centerRegistration:true,
                                                                                                         alpha:1,
                                                                                                         scaleMode:"none",
                                                                                                         //scaleX:0, scaleY:0,
                                                                                                         //vAlign:"top",
                                                                                                         width:540,
                                                                                                         height:730,//scales proportionally but I need to cut off the edges
                                                                                                         crop:true,
                                                                                                         autoPlay:false
    function progressHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void{
              progressBarPopUp_mc.gradientbarPopUp_mc.scaleX = loaderProductPopUps.progress;
    function completeHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void{
              var loadedImage:ContentDisplay = event.target.content;
              //TweenMax.to(loadedImage, 1.5, {alpha:1, scaleX:1, scaleY:1});//only need this line if corresponding values are changed in SWF loader constructor
              TweenMax.to(progressBarPopUp_mc, 1.5, {alpha:0, scaleX:0.25, scaleY:0.25});
    loaderProductPopUps.load();

  • Do you experience low volume from the calling party in phone calls?

    I have my iPhone for about 9 days now. Prior to yesterday, I did not experience any problem with the volume.
    What' happening is this: when a caller calls in, the volume of the caller is so small, that I really can't hear at all! It is annoying as I receive calls from clients. And I had to look for another phone to call back the any callers, or turn on my speaker. These solutions are temporary. I had tried increasing the "ringer" volume to maximum, using the controls on the top left side of the iPhone. Still the volume was so soft. Prior to yesterday, the caller's volume was loud and clear! I suspect something went wrong with my soundcard, or something. I off and on my iPhone, but it does not solve the problem.
    I wonder if others faced the same problem? And any ways I can rectify the problem?

    The earpiece volume for phonecalls on my 3GS has been weak since day 1. I have the volume for earpiece calls set to full and it is still hard to hear the person on the other end unless I am in a really quiet room. It shouldn't be like this... max volume should be too loud to use 95% of the time, if you are using any device at max anything it indicates that the device was underspecified... do you drive your car at redline on the tach all the time? No, it is just for very rare occassions when you really need to outrun a tornado...

  • We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

    We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
    Thanks!

    It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
    The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

  • The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window.  How do I recover them?

    The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window.  How do I recover them?  I'm working with Lightroom 5.3.  The missing controls are the sliders for exposure, contrast, clarity, etc.  I must have inadvertantly clicked something that made them disappear but nothing I've tried brings them back.  I've never had this experience in the years I've been using Lightroom (since version 1.1).

    Right-click on any other item Tone Curve for ex., and check on "Basic" if that's what you are missing.
    If you miss the complete Develop module right-click any other item  Library for ex and put a check on Develop

    Hello Raimonds,
    To answer your question, you are not able to check your ink levels from ePrint Center. The only thing that you can do in ePrint Center is monitor the status of your recent print jobs that you send via ePrint and monitor the status of connection of your printer to the ePrint Servers.

  • In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store

    In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store. It would appear that I can only get Genius recommendations from my own library. This was easy in iTunes 10 and enabled me to find lots of good artists I had never heard of.

    I have this same question and all I have found on it is this,
    http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/ss/genius_store.htm
    Basically it seams they got rid of the whole side bar concept of things to make it all more streamline, understandable but I know atleast for myself that genius sugestion for any song is how I found new artists and songs I never knew existed.
    If you go to the Album the go to "In the Store" it will give you a recomendation for that album... not exaclty what you might be looking for but atleast its something, if anyone else has a way to get genius sugestions for individual songs I am all ears and would love to hear about it.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

  • Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper)

    Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper). For example, if I am downloading a paper by smith called "Surgery" that was published in 2002, it will automatically set the file name in the download to smith- surgery 2002. I have heard pages is smart enough to do this.
    thank you

    Pages can export only its own documents. They may be exported as PDF, MS Word, RTF or Text files.
    Pages can import (ie. Open a file as, or Insert a file into, a Pages document) documents in several formats, but won't rename the document as you describe. Documents that can be Opened (eg. Text, AppleWorks 6 WP, MS Word files) are converted to Pages documents, and retain their original names, with .pages replacing the original file extension. Files that can be Inserted (generally .jpg, .pdf and other image files) become part of the existing Pages file and lose their names.
    It may be possible, using AppleScript, to extract the text you want and to Save a Pages file using that text as the filename, but that would depend in part on being able to identify which text is wanted and which is not.
    How will the script determine where the author's name begins and where it ends?
    How will the script recognize the beginning and of the title, an decide how much of the title to use in the filename?
    How will the script recognize the year of publication?
    For papers published in a specific journal, with a strict format for placing each of these pieces on information, or containing the needed information as searchable meta data in the file, this might be possible. But it would require knowledge of the structure of these files, and would probably handle only papers published in a specific journal or set of journals.
    Outside my field of knowledge, but there are some talented scripters around here who might want to take a closer look.
    Best of luck.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How do I get a picture to look like the audi example picture (2nd one) when you download motion 5 from the app store?

    Im looking to remake this picture that is an example when you download motion 5 from the app store. Apple gives you 5 example pictures to kind of show off what the program can do and I want to replicate the 2nd one. I like how the picture is divided into multiple different sized boxes and I dont know the presets needed to make another picture like that. Any tips are welcome. Thanks.

    The volume control has disappeared from the music app on my iPhone and i can't play any music how do i fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

  • HT4515 how do you erase a photo from the Camera Roalbumll and still keep it in a selected

    How can you erase a phote from the camera roll and not delete from the selected album you moved it to

    You don't. There is only one picture.  if you delete it from Camera Roll then it will be gone.  Just as a song is in your library and that exact same song is in a playlist, a pic is in the camera roll and that exact same photo can be accessed from a album that you make.
    The pic is not moved to the album, the album is simply a playlist.  the pic lives in the camera roll.
