Problem Some "on" effects

Hello all,
I'm having a little issue with incorporating FlashVars along
with some MC buttons. I'm passing the page name to the flash movie
so the bottom stays up and that seems to work. However, when I
rollover the same button it moves and I do not understand why so I
was hoping you could help
On my main timeline i am passing the FlashVars "pagename" and
this is the script on the first frame of my document.
var pagename;
if (pagename == "profile") {
profile.gotoAndStop("active");
} else if (pagename == "commercial") {
commercial.gotoAndStop("active");
} else if (pagename == "residential") {
residential.gotoAndStop("active");
} else if (pagename == "remodel") {
remodel.gotoAndStop("active");
} else if (pagename == "testimonials") {
testimonials.gotoAndStop("active");
} else if (pagename == "dclinks") {
dclinks.gotoAndStop("active");
} else if (pagename == "contact") {
contact.gotoAndStop("active");
Then I have a seried of MC buttons to act as the navigation
of the site. The way the buttons work is there is a tab that slides
up when you hover over it and it slides back down when the mouse
moves away from it. Now as I said earlier. The tab is in the up
position when a particular page is displayed and that is how it is
supposed to work. But when I rollover the MC then it animates and
it is not supposed to. Here is the script for one of the buttons.
onClipEvent (load) {
profileHit._alpha = 0;
this.hitArea = "profileHit";
on (rollOver) {
if (pagename == "profile") {
gotoAndStop("active");
} else {
gotoAndPlay("over");
on (rollOut) {
if (pagename == "profile") {
gotoAndStop("active")
} else {
gotoAndPlay("out");
on (release) {
getURL("companyProfile.php");
Thanks in advance

Hi jjsand28
What you are trying to do sounds like it all looks really
cool. Is there any way you could post the .fla somewhere... It
makes it much easier to problem solve when you are looking at the
actual movie clips and so forth?

    Fixes for some transform effects problems.
    - We were not animating the postLayout properties in some cases where we should have, effectively pinning the object in place. We now animate those properties whenever applyChangesPostLayout is true.
    - A copy/paste error meant that we did not animate the scaleZ property in cases where we should have.
    - A problem in the transform code means that using a null transform center is not the same as a transform center which uses the transformX/Y/Z properties of the target object. We now force the creation/use of a transform center in all cases to avoid that problem.
    QE notes: This breaks about a dozen tests in the transform effects area, but I believe the new results are correct and the tests/bitmaps should be changed.

  • Problem with keyframe effect - at start and end (crop and scale)

    I'm having this odd problem with keyframe effects.
    Setup:
    I have a gif image that I have on video 1 for say 2 minutes.
    I have my real video on video 2.  It is a person talking.
    First I start with my video full size on top of video 1.
    Though the motion and cropping keyframe management I slowly reduce the scale and crop my video image so that it is reduced to the lower left bottom of the screen, on top of the gif, which is now revealed.
    My problem is at the start and end of the transition from full video to small box on lower left on top of my gif I often get 1-2 frames where the video goes blank and/or I get a bunch of random red bars on black background appearing on the video - Or I get the gif from video 1 without the video 2 at all (it disappears).
    I've tried moving my start of end of the transition to skip the bad spots - but these new transition starts or ends not get their own bad spots in the same way.  Its only a couple of frames but it's really unacceptable for the finished video.
    Note, when I say transition here I don't mean real transition events, but rather the start of effects that are managed with keyframes.  My move from start to end of the effect runs for about 4-6 seconds.
    Any ideas?

    Bill,
    Here is more detail and screen captures.
    Concept:
    I have 3 minutes of video.  It contains a person making a speech.  During parts of the speech I want to reveal a graphic image that will be discussed.  The speech will begin with the speaker full screen.  Half way in, the speaker will shrink down to 45% in the lower left corner of the screen.  While the animation occurs (the shrink, move and cropping) it will reveal the graphic below.  The graphic will take up the full screen with the speaker at 45%.
    Technique:
    I put the video in Video 2 and the graphic, a GIF image in Video 1.  The scene begins with the speaker talking at full screen.  After a minute, I animate the move of the speaker using Motion: Scale and Position and Effect: Crop changing Top, Bottom, Left and Right sides.  The animation occurs over approximately 8 seconds.
    I am manually adding keyframes at the start and end of the animation.  I set the ending state of the video image in the end keyframes.  The interpolation between these start and end keyframes should be managing the animation.
    Problem:
    At the beginning and end of the animation – usually 1-3 frames from the start and 1-3 frames from the end, where the change has barely begun or almost ended, I get these problems.  On some frames, the video (in Video 2) completely disappears only showing the Video 1 GIF image below.  On other frames, the video image turns black with horizontal red bands half way across.
    Troublshooting:
    I’ve tried deleting all start and end keyframes and moving the start and end earlier or later to see if I can fix this, but the problem continues to show up in these new locations.
    I have added a few screen shots.
    1:32:15 is the start of the animation change and 1:40:22 is the end of increasing from the mini video speaker to full size (on top of the GIF).
    At 1:40:16 the video image completely disappears only showing the GIF below.
    At 1:40:17 its back and slowly increases in size through the interpolation until it is full size at 1:40:22.
    Let me know if you need anything else.
    Thanks!

  • I have problems in after effects to import caps 3d generated in Photoshop,

    Good days, at present I have a complete package of cs6.
    With this package of cs6 I have problems in after effects to import caps 3d generated in Photoshop, the message is " not available: Live photoshop 3d ".
    Who is the best sulución?

    After Effects does not import live Photoshop 3D objects.
    As Mylenium says, you need to use Cinema 4D (included with After Effects CC), Invigorator, Element 3D, or some other plug-in or application to bring 3D items into After Effects.

  • Problem with After Effects crashing machine when rendering

    Ive been having a repeated problem with after effects crashing when I try to render a sequence.
    The render halts then first After Effects becomes unresponsive then every other applications follows and I have to hard-restart my machine.
    Can anyone help me find out how to stop this happening?

    i - Illl try to answer these bellow...
    What exact version of After Effects? Include the minor version number---e.g., After Effects CC (12.2.1) or After Effects CS6 (11.0.4). Do not just say "After Effects with the latest updates" or "After Effects CC"; give the specific version number.
    Ive just updated it - I have After Effects CC 13.2.0.49
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
    Just don'e this - not tried to render since
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
    Late Mac operating system Yosamete 10.10.1 (14B25)
    If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
    There is no error message
    What were you doing when the problem occurred? What is the exact sequence of steps that you are taking?
    Performing a render, the render gets partially through but stops at different parts and hangs, then the computer hangs and I have to hard reset.
    Has this ever worked before? If this worked before by doesn't work now, what has changed on your computer in the intervening time?
    I had a similar problem two days ago, i thought it could be a problem with some animated png sequences and a "matte feather" effect so i replaced the sequences with non animated versions and it seemed to fix the problem.

  • Some KDE effects broke after latest upgrades

    Hi all
    After upgrading xorg, intel, qt, some KDE effects are broken. So far, I've found that window highlighting in the taskbar and expose windows are broken. Instead of the window contents, there's a bright white space. Anyone else with this?
    EDIT: Apart from the above problems, there were also screen flashes and performance was generally awful. I just reverted back to the old xorg and intel packages and kept only the newest qt. It makes me sad that every newest xorg and intel release is much worse than previous versions... .

    Are you using compositing?  The Intel drivers seem to be broken with regards to OpenGl.  You will need to use indirect rendering for now.  Personally, I had much better luck with compiz than with kwin.  Compiz also requires thast it run with indirect rendering, but the performance seems to be at least an order of magnitude faster.
    The only I saw problem with compiz and KDE is that autohide trays don't play nicely with compiz.
    As for me, this was the straw that broke the camel's back and sent me packing for Xfce + compiz.

  • Problem using imported effects

    Hi I have a small problem using imported effects on after effects cs4
    Usually,  I can just import effects in quicktime format (such as from riot gear, or action essentials), and they have worked fine.
    But recently, after I had to copy these effects to a new computer, the 'frame' of the effect stays there.
    So for example, riot gear has an effect that in quick time appears as a white ink blot appearing on a black background.
    But when I import it into aftereffects and place it on, say, a red background, the black square background stays there (with the white ink still flowing properly)
    I've been working with after effects for several months, and think it might just be that its some copyright measure built in to prevent people from sharing the effects, but I'm probably overlooking something really stupid.
    Any suggestions at all? Thank you in advance.

    You use the word 'effects' throughout your post, but I'm pretty sure that what you're referring to aren't effects. See this page for information about what effects are.
    Because you're referring to items in "QuickTime format", you must be referring to footage items, by which I mean movie files imported into After Effects.
    If you're seeing white on a black background, but you expect to just see white without a black background, then either a) the movie has an alpha channel and you have After Effects set to ignore it or b) the movie is intended to be used as a track matte (specifically, a luma matte).
    I strongly recommend that you work through the materials here so that you can learn the basics and the standard terminology:

  • I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator CS6

    Hi everybody
    I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator
    1. When you go to to effects > effect Gallery the the sketch filter always is black and white. Is this normal? In Photoshop you can set your background and foreground and the sketch effects takes those colors. Is there any way to do this in Illustrator? I have tried changing the colour of the fill and stroke but nothing...
    2. In the same area as before effects > effect Gallery .... In Photoshop you can add multiple filters with the create new button. Always is off is there anyway to make it available? or the only way is to by creating several individual ones and manage then in the appearance panel ...
    3. I saved a brush library and now it appears in the user defined area so I can get it in any document, that is good but any one knows how to delete a user undefined library?
    Many thanks in advance for the help .... I look forward for the reply =)

    I see that it is six months ago that I first posted this. Nothing has changed. When I use affixa to create a message with an attachment from my gmail account in firefox, the message is created in drafts, but the gmail window is closed and I have to re-open it. Not critical, but annoying.
    Now there is a plug-in on the affixa site that is supposed to be designed for Firefox, and which affixa support claims should take care of this. And I've downloaded it twice. When you download it and open it, it says that it will be installed when Firefox restarts, and gives you a button to restart Firefox. But after you click that button and firefox disappears and re-appears, the affixa plug-in is NOT in the plugin list.
    Please, somebody, HELP.

  • Thinkpad keyboard problem - some keys generate multiple keys when pressed

    thinkpad keyboard problem - some keys generate multiple keys when pressed
    For example, "t" generates "tr", "y" generates "yu", "backspace" generates "backspace" plus "IBM access connections", "m" generates "mn" and "n" generates "mn".  Not all keys are wrong. 
    For what it's worth, the odd behaviour started shortly after a trip to Miami in which I had a meeting at a cafe in which we were undercover but it was pouring cats and dogs - it was like having a meeting in a sauna - so I am wondering if the high humidity could have caused the behaviour.
    I tried replacing the keyboard but the new keyboard has the same problem.  
    The machine in question is a Thinkpad T23 running Windows XP Pro
    Any help would be appreciated as I am now in Los Angeles using a borrowed Mac! :-) 

    i have something along the lines of the same problem.

    my conclusion is something in the last system update screwed it up.

    Problem updating After Effects CC (2014)  I get this message: Update Failed  Error encountered during installation. (U44M1P7)

    Hi,
    It’s version 13.1.1  It’s a trial version.
    I am updating it from the Creative cloud desktop application.
    I have the photography subscription with Lightroom and Photoshop with Creative Cloud.
    I was interested in trying out the video software and have trials of Premiere Pro as well as others.  The CC desktop app alerted me to the AF update just as it does for the others I subscribe to plus the ones I am using as trials.  I have not had any problems with the other apps (trial or not), only with AF.
    Thanks.

  • Problem with After Effects CC 12.1

    Hello,
    I have a problem with After Effects CC ver.12.1. It does not work on my mac (with os x mavericks).
    I am a member of Cretive Cloud and I have a latest version of After Effects and it does not work.
    Other programs, like: Photoshop, Adobe Premiere or Illustrator works fine.
    But when I run the AE I get the message "You can not start After Effects -10810"
    Where is the problem?

    Same here, I get these messages - I'm confused as to why it says version 12.0 as it should be 12.1!
