  2. Resources • ActionScript Source Code http://www.actionscript.org/ • YouTube Tutorials http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7bAzxPuQME • http://www.flash-template-design.com/create_scroll.php • http://www.senocular.com/flash/source/ • http://flashexplained.com/category/actionscript/ • http://flash.editme.com/TryThis

  3. Key Terms • Frames • Frame rate • Key Frame • Actionscript • Buttons • Movie clips • Motion Tweening • Shape Tweening • Masks

  4. Actionscript3 - Targetting'root' or 'parent' timelines • How to target the 'root' or 'parent' timelines from within a movieclip. the old actionscript method of using [for example] "_root.gotoAndPlay("intro");" or "_parent.gotoAndStop(3);" no longer works in actionscript3. Copy this code and paste it in your HTML • // send root timeline to play frame 3 • MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(3); • // send root timeline to stop on frame "intro" • MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("intro"); • // send the current timeline's 'parent' to play frame 3 • MovieClip(parent).gotoAndPlay(3); • // send the current timeline's 'parent' to stop on frame "intro" • MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop("intro"); • // when traversing a long list of nested 'parent' timelines, just string • // as many together as you need - separated by dots. for example... • MovieClip(parent.parent.parent).gotoAndPlay(3); • //or... • MovieClip(parent.parent.parent).gotoAndStop("intro");

  5. Show & Hide a Movie Clip varmyGloves:gloves = new gloves(); clothing.glovesBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, showGloves); function showGloves(event:MouseEvent):void clothing.glovesBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, hideGloves); { addChild(myGloves); myGloves.x=50; myGloves.y=50; } function hideGloves(event:MouseEvent):void { myGloves.unload(); }

  6. Movie Clip Events

  7. Button Events

  8. Actions - changing an objects properties A property is a piece of an object. Most objects are simply collections of properties. Examples of some properties are: • how wide it is (_width) • where it is on the stage (_x and _y) • what frame is currently being played (_currentframe) • how transparent it is (_alpha) • its name (_name) • whether it's visible or not (_visible) • _xscale or _yscale • Rotation (_rotation) • Colour (text or fill)

  9. Actions - Methods • A method is something an object can do or something you can do to an object. For example, here are some things methods can do: • Stop a movie clip i.e. stop() • Go to a certain frame and start playing at gotoAndPlay(frame) • See if a movie clip is over another movie clip i.e. • Hide the mouse cursor • Set the volume of a sound being played • Turn sound off and on • For example: Let's go to frame 10 of the clue movie clip and start playing from there: clue.gotoAndPlay(10); The method here is gotoAndPlay. All methods live inside objects—they don't exist on their own.

  11. Drag and Drop on(press) { startDrag(this); _root.answer1="";} on(release) { stopDrag(); if (this._droptarget == "/bow") { _root.answer1="Correct"; } else{ _root.answer1 = "wrong"; } }

  12. ScrollBar • http://www.flashdesignerzone.com/tutorials/t1033.php • http://www.knowflash.com/content/view/135/27/

  13. Example: Animation Script Onload() Play sky movie clip from frame 1 Play sound clip – wind blowing (only once) Home Button OnRollOver() Plays a sound Rotate home button

  14. Example Code • For example, the following code in Frame 1 of the main Timeline scales the ball object when myButton is clicked: myButton.onPress= function () { _root.ball._xscale = 200; _root.ball._yscale = 200; };

  15. Functions • Creating your own functions to perform code that can be used over and over again and tailored to your project • A function contains a set of instructions • Functions can contain parameters (but not all Functions have parameters) • Example:

  16. Conditional Statements • If …else

  17. Loops • For(i= 0:i<10: i++)

  18. Arrays
