Controlling frames of a Movieclip using TimelineMax AS3

Hi All,

 

I want to control the frames of design time movieclip.

 

I have a movieclip which has 100 frames animation.

And i want to control the frames with other tween animation in Timeline.

 

However I am unable to achive this because pausing a parent timeline doesn't pause the inner moviclips animation.

 

Is it possible to control the (design time frame) animations in TimelineMax??

Yes, you can insert a tween that uses the FramePlugin in to a TimelineLite.

 

Here is an example of how FramePlugin works:

http://www.snorkl.tv/2010/10/overview-of-tweenmax-framelabel-and-frame-plugins-nifty-way-to-play-a-flash-timeline-backwards/

import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.plugins.*;

TweenPlugin.activate(["FramePlugin"]);

var tl = new TimelineLite();
tl.to(mc, 1, {frame:30})

http://api.greensock.com/as/com/greensock/plugins/FramePlugin.html

 

Be sure to check out FrameLabelPlugin too

TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {frameLabel:"someLabel"});

We don't have any sound related tools other than MP3Loader and the VolumePlugin

 

You can add callbacks to a timeline that can tell a sound to play but that's about it. The sounds will not be synchronized with the timeline, meaning pausing the timeline won't pause the sound. 

var tl = new TimelineLite()
tl.to(mc, 1, {x:200})
  .call(playSound)
  .to(mc, 1, {alpha:0})

function playSound() {
 //code to play sound
}

Thanx for your quick replies. i will use the public methods to synchronise the audio.

But i would love to have  audio handling with Greensock as it will help us to play, pause, reverse etc. controls. Anyways thanx a lot for the help. You made my one week work worth it.

 

Greensock ROXXXXX ... :)

 

Happy Halloweening :)
