ok... i've been trying to make this work for 2 days:
i have a scene with a button and a movie clip. the movie clip is called "MovieClip1 ". within the movie clip i've labeled a frame late in the clip called "Near End". i want my button to make the playhead goto that labeled frame within the movie clip but it does not.
the button has the following actionscript 2.0: -
on (release) {
-
_root.MovieClip1.gotoAndPlay("Near End");
-
}
-
what am i doing wrong?

}

nope, doesn't work... i've tried this. _root.this.goto AndPlay("Near End"); _root.MovieClip 1.gotoAndPlay(" Near End");... nothing works... i'm wondering if i need to somehow change the properties of the MovieClip1 MC, so that actionscript can use it? i've called the MovieClip1 instance onstage "MovieClip1 " but it's just not being called.

is the MovieClip1 MC in the same scene?

nomad
yes, it's in the same scene... i have no idea why something so simple is not working... it's making me crazy
Here is a small FLA file which shows you what i'm trying to do:
essentially there's an if/else statement block on the button, but the main timeline stops at frame 40.
i'm trying to make the button direct the playhead to the "Red" frame label within the MC movie clip, but anyway i try to write it it just isn't working. i know i can do this by not making a MC in the first place and just use the main timeline, but this is a small example of a much larger project, so i have to have it work this way.
so any thoughts of what i'm doing wrong?
it seems my flash install is crazy... i switched my movie properties from AS2 to AS3, and then back again, and now everything works as expected... strange...

i am trying to write code for coping a certain portion of movieclip into another movieclip.
for that i draw big stage movieclip. (stage_mc).Then i draw small rectangle movieclips on the stage movieclip. (rect_mc)
Now what i want, is that the area of the stage_mc that the rect_mc is drawn on, should be made into another movieclip.
So that portion of the stage_mc which had been selected by the rect_mc, becomes a new movieclip newMC_mc.

Hi,
this is perhaps a common question, but everywhere I just find how to
load external images into a movieclip. I have images in my Library
that I want to load into a movieclip, so I used attachMovie like this:
mc.attachMovie("imagename");
where imagename is the Linkage identifier, but this doesn't work,
so I wonder what I am doing wrong?

Hi,
This should be really simple to do and has really got me stumped. I have a movieclip inside a button, the button is called my_btn and the movieclip is called my_movie. What i want to happen is the movieclip goes to frame two when the button is rolled over, so i added this code to test the reference to the button:
my_button.onRollOver = function() {
trace(this.my_movie);
}

Hello
I am trying to resize the image loaded in a movieclip. The problem is that I am just resizing the movie clip but not the image loaded in the movieclip.
The movie clip is smaller than the size of the image and therefore the movieclip only shows part of the image.
Could you please tell me any idea to scale the image so that the whole image fit the smaller movie clip?
Thanks

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
