[_] flash question inside Anonymous 05/22/18(Tue)10:53:25 No.

  Can someone tell me how to make a flash with AS3 that loops one scene repeatedly, and then goes
  to another scene when you press a button?
  The other scene should loop too, until you hit a button to go back to the first scene.
  Tried dragging in a button, and adding an onclick function, but flash gave me compiler errors.
  I could make do with knowing how to stop all playing sounds in actionscript3.
  a .fla would be appreciated.

  Why'd you put it all in one scene?
  Also, my main problem is getting the frame sound to stop playing before I call gotoandplay()

  you mean in the main timeline? no particular reason, you can shove it all in a movie clip no
  problem
  >Also, my main problem is getting the frame sound to stop playing before I call gotoandplay()
  in the keyframe before gotoAndPlay(); write stopAllSounds();

  >in the keyframe before gotoAndPlay(); write stopAllSounds();
  It's Soundmixer.stopAll() in actionscript 3.
  My main problem is still errors like:
  Scene 2, Layer 'abutton', Frame 49, Line 4 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method
  addEventListener through a reference with static type Class.
  for the source line:
  abutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ahandleclick);
  There's only 48 frames in the entire flash, but that error's from frame 49.
  How do I get a reference to the buttons I've put on screen in AS3? are they just predefined as
  whatever their name is in the Library pane?

  oops sorry about that stop all sounds, I haven't used that much
  you need to name the buttons in the properties tab, when you click on that button you need to
  write a name in <Instance Name> and that's what you use for the script, the name in the library
  doesn't matter

  you can also try debug mode (ctrl + shift + enter) and the lines that give you errors should be
  highlighted or have a "!" in them

  I figured it out.
  It's a combination of properly naming buttons, and making the action in frame 48 go to frame 2
  instead of frame 1.
  Before this thread dies, know any good material on how code in flash gets run, and what APIs are
  available? Adobe's AS3 documentation isn't very concise.

  nah sorry, if I want to do something on flash I google it but I'm sure there are videos on
  youtube on how to code in flash but I just didn't look for them
