Hey to everyone,

i didnt wanna open up 3 new threads for my problems, i hope that is ok. If not, then sorry but I have been without coffee and cigarettes for a few hours ;-)).

Transition Effect:

I got some external swfs which will be loaded in my myMCL MovieClipLoader Object. Each of these external swf files contain an intro animation, a stop action (where the entire content of that swf is shown) and also an outro animation. What I wanna achieve is that when a user clicks on a button, the external swf file which is shown at the moment plays its outro animation and then loads in the other external swf file. I was trying to follow on tutorial on the kirupa page, but it just wont work. Maybe its because i got Flash MX 2004 Prof, I dont know.

Small Popup:
Actually, I dont want flash to open up a new window, so new JavaScript stuff or similar. I just want flash to make a small mc visible which contains text once the visitor clicks on a button. Then, this mc that was made visible contains a close function (small x in the upper right corner). Once the user clicks on it, the "window" kinda animates back to its orginial positon and then disappears.

Scroll Movie:
I built a MC with some text and pictures inside. On top of that content layer is a mask layer, which shows only the portion needed and hides the rest. I also have two buttons contained on another layer but still in the same movieclip. Now when I load that swf into my flash project, everything appears to be alright. However, once I click on the buttons, the movie clip wont scroll. I tried a scrolling function I once attached to a dynamic textfield that calls in an external textfile, but apparently this as wont work with the movieclip.

I am kinda new to flash and I guess I m progressing, very slowy but surely but these 3 problems have been bugging me for weeks now.

Help is highly appreciated ;-))

To Transition Effect:

Here is one of the external swf files I d like to load into a movie after another movie has played its outro animation.

Popup:
I dont quite know how to realize that one. Basically just a movieclip with a rectangle inside that is unvisible at first. Then when a user click on a button, the rectangle animates up to its full size making itself visible. When the user clicks on the cross in the upper right corner, the rect. animates back and gets invisible
