Hello,
I'm pretty new to flash and i've been trying to make a presentation which is build out of several animations located on the main timeline.
I wanted to use frame labels to navigate back and forth in the timeline, so I created back/next buttons and used switch/case code on them based on the frame labels.
each animation has a label and a stop(); command at the end of it, right before the next animation.
the code for the next button looks like this:
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, click_handler);
function click_handler(event_object:MouseEvent)
{
switch (currentFrameLabel)
{
case "frame1" :
gotoAndPlay("frame2");
break;
case "frame2" :
gotoAndPlay("frame2a");
break;
case "frame2a" :
gotoAndPlay("frame2b");
break;
case "frame2b" :
gotoAndPlay("frame3");
break;
case "frame3" :
gotoAndPlay("frame4");
break;
case "frame4" :
gotoAndPlay("frame5");
break;
case "frame5" :
gotoAndPlay("frame6");
break;
case "frame6" :
gotoAndPlay("frame7");
break;
case "frame7" :
gotoAndPlay("frame8");
break;
case "frame8" :
gotoAndPlay("frame9");
break;
case "frame9" :
gotoAndPlay("frame10");
break;
case "frame10" :
gotoAndPlay("frame11");
break;
case "frame11" :
gotoAndPlay("frame12");
break;
case "frame12" :
gotoAndPlay("frame13");
break;
case "frame13" :
gotoAndPlay("frame14");
break;
case "frame14" :
gotoAndPlay("frame15");
break;
case "frame15" :
gotoAndPlay("frame16");
break;
case "frame16" :
gotoAndPlay("frame17");
break;
case "frame17" :
gotoAndPlay("frame18");
break;
case "frame18" :
gotoAndPlay("frame19");
break;
case "frame23" :
gotoAndPlay("frame24");
break;
case "frame24" :
gotoAndPlay("frame25");
break;
case "frame25" :
gotoAndPlay("frame26");
break;
case "frame26" :
gotoAndPlay("frame27");
break;
default :
play();
}
}
problem is at some point it stops working. i've added the "default: play();" code to try and fix it but it only goes so far.
is there any other way to do it?
thanks in advance.
