How to stop actions in AS 2?

Hey guys I'm having some trouble in ActionScript 2. So basically in one frame I have 4 buttons on the screen. All 4 of them have a function to go to a certain frame. One of the buttons goes to the next frame and here comes the problem. The buttons are present in all of the frames in the animation, but In some frames I want some buttons not to work.
In other words, when I press the button that goes to the next frame and than In the next frame I want that button not to work but still be in that frame. Yet for some reason the button still works in the next frame even though I inserted a new command line but without the command for the button to work so how can I make actions stop? I want a certain button to work on just one frame yet it works on the next ones too.

on the frame where you want the button (eg, btn1) to work, use:
btn1.onRelease=function(){
_root.nextFrame();
and on the frame where you want it to not work, use:
delete btn1.onRelease;

  • VMM 2012: How to Configure Automatic Start and Stop Actions for a Virtual Machine?

    Does somebody know how to confgure Automatic Start and Stop Actions for a Virtual Machine in VMM 2012?
    I miss that option.

    Automatic Start or Automatic Restart actions are available for virtual machines running on a Hyper-V cluster from within Virtual Machine Manager.
    From within Virtual Machine Manager, bring up the Virtual Machine's properties:
    Click "Hardware Configuration"
    Click "Availability"
    Click "High", "Medium", or "Low" to enable automatic start/restart or
    Click "Do not restart automatically" to disable automatic start/restart
    Screenshot from VMM 2012 for a VM running in a Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V cluster:
    VMs running on a cluster have to be marked "Highly Available" and logically, Microsoft assumes that you'll want these VMs to be running all the time when this setting is selected.  If the cluster fails or needs to be restarted, you can set the priority
    by which a VM restarts, or you can set the VM to not restart at all when cluster services are restored by using the settings above.

  • Export to Swf (how do I insert a stop action in IND)?

    So I've exported the swf's. But when they come up (in a pop-up window) on my site, all I see is a grey screen. I right click and and unclick "play" and then they appear.
    I assumed, from reading other posts people have posted that I needed to insert a stop action. Can anyone tell me if this is possible to do in IND CS4?
    I don't have CS4-Flash, I have CS3_Flash. I do have CS4 IND, so if I could insert a stop action here I would do so. Anyone know how to go about doing so? And will this fix my problem?
    Thanks a ton people!

    I wanted to use a special character in an email; I used to do it but had forgotten how.  I figured it out:
    Place the cursor where you want to special character to be.
    Open the special characters page and drag the symbol to where you want it to appear.  Then double click on the symbol, and voilé the character appears.  At that point you can print as many special characters as you want without dragging them first, just double click on them.

    Hi,
    As per my understanding, this is not a proper approach toy call web dynpro using FM CALL_BROWSER. is the web dynpro screen being called when user clicks on the work item from portal UWL OR from SAP SBWP ?
    if you are calling web dynpro screen from portal UWL when user clicks on work item link, better you achieve it using SWFVISU tcode. in SWFVISU tcode you can maintain which web dynpro. application to call when particualr work item task come in user's inbox. in your web dynpro code, then you can write your buisiness logic when user clicks for example SUBMIT/SAVE button. on action submit/save button you can use FM SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE to complete the worktiem once the user clicks on final submit/save button. in this way the workitem will get removed from user inbox only upon clicking on submit/save button.
    You can refer below link for web dynpro for workitem:

  • How to stop a movie clip that is loaded dynamically

    Hello Flash Forum,
    I am using the loadmovie method to load a swf file into a
    movie clip "container"
    Code snippet:
    var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc",1);
    mc.loadMovie('bbc_module1.1.swf','bbc_audio',container.getNextHighestDepth(),
    {_x:300.8, _y:240});
    mc._lockroot = true;
    The movie clip I load does not have a stop action in frame 1,
    but comes up playing (audio and images). I am not using video. It
    is a series of still images synced to the audio.
    I would like to be able to load the movie clip, stop it from
    playing, and by clicking buttons, get it to play, pause, etc like
    the buttons and skin on the FLVPlayer.
    Any tips on how to do this?

  • I have been sampling new imported drum loops. And if I adjust region to song or time strecth it updates the audio file in the library. How to stop this? I lost the original setting to one loop. automatically doing it ??

    I have been sampling new imported drum loops. And if I adjust region to song or time strecth it updates the audio file in the library. How to stop this? I lost the original setting to one loop. automatically doing it ??

    This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

    are locked user files or that have incorrect permission a bad thing?
    Yes.
    why am i removing symantec?
    Short answer: Because it's worse than useless and worse than the imaginary "viruses" you're afraid of would be if they really existed. For the long answer, see below.
    1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to log in to it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it.
    The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
    The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    ☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    ☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    ☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    ☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    ☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    Apple has so far failed to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. These failures don't involve App Store products, however.
    For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, and a technological fix is not going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
    The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the scam artists. If you're smarter than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
    Software from an untrustworthy source
    ☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
    ☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software.
    ☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
    ☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
    Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
    ☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
    ☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission.
    Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
    ☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    ☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
    ☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
    ☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
    ☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
    ☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
    Unexpected events
    ☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
    ☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
    ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    ☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
    I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
    Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
    7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" (AV) or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
    ☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
    ☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    ☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    ☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
    8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
    Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
    London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
    You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in everyemail attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It's as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • How to stop "Preparing Video for Display"

    I've used FCP for countless projects but haven't ever tried to put hundreds of stills into the timeline for a final result that looks like what free software packages produce for consumer camera stills.  I have a number of questions related to achieving this result, but I'll start with this. 
    The 'preparing for display' message comes up when I move chunks of pictures around.  It freezes all activity until it's done (rendering?), and usually the action that led to it is a minor thing that still needs further manipulation.  Would it help to reduce the resolution of the stills?  How do I do that all at once?  There are too many to treat individually.
    Thanks for letting me know how to stop getting my process hijacked!
    It is really slowing me down, and I'm on deadline.
    With much appreciation,
    Roxane

    Still images are NOT video. FCP has to translate each image into a format that will play as video.
    This process happens on the fly and as the numbers of images go up, the amount of time and system resources required to accomplish this also increase in a linear way.
    There are a couple of things you can do at the system level.
    1. make sure you have your RT playback set to Unlimited.
    2. in System settings, increase your stills cache. By default it is around 10% of FCP's RAM. If you have 4GB or more in the machine, your RAM available to FCP should be set at 100% and you may want to bump up the stills cache to 50% (or more if the project is mostly stills). Do not raise it to 100% as you have to leave some free ram for the program.
    Along with what Russ has suggested, you should get better performance. You need to be realistic though. FCP is a video editor, not a slideshow generater. If the work is a slideshow, there are better tools.
    Have fun.

    You must make a keyframe at the last frame of your movie and
    put the stop() command there. If you just go to the last frame and
    type stop(); without making a keyframe there it will actually
    put the stop command on the first frame, not the last frame. Look
    to
    see what frame the little 'a' symbol is located.
