Check that there is a symbol (movieclip or button) on your stage on the frame that this code runs that is named “mop1″ in the Properties panel. Although are you certain this is the code that is throwing the error? Look for some code that begins with:

function stopDrag...

As it looks like that’s where your error is being thrown (you have “stopDrag1()” in the provided code).

and this is my code:

stop();

import com.greensock.TweenMax;
import com.greensock.TweenLite;
import com.greensock.easing.Sine;

//————-drag

mop1.addEventListener(\mouseDown\,drag1);
function drag1(e:MouseEvent):void{
mop1.startDrag(false);
}
stage.addEventListener(\mouseUp\,stopdrag1);
function stopdrag1(e:MouseEvent):void{
mop1.stopDrag();
}

//——————Zoom

ZoomP1.addEventListener(\mouseDown\,zoom3);
function zoom3(e:MouseEvent):void{
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {scaleX:0.6, scaleY:0.6, ease:Sine.easeOut});
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {x:240, y:160, ease:Sine.easeIn});
}
ZoomP2.addEventListener(\mouseDown\,zoom4);
function zoom4(e:MouseEvent):void{
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {scaleX:1, scaleY:1, ease:Sine.easeOut});
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {x:240, y:160, ease:Sine.easeIn});
}
ZoomP3.addEventListener(\mouseDown\,dezoom4);
function dezoom4(e:MouseEvent):void{
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {scaleX:2, scaleY:2, ease:Sine.easeOut});
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {x:240, y:160, ease:Sine.easeOut});
}
ZoomM.addEventListener(\mouseDown\,dezoom3);
function dezoom3(e:MouseEvent):void{
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {scaleX:0.355, scaleY:0.355, ease:Sine.easeOut});
TweenMax.to(mop1, 1, {x:240, y:160, ease:Sine.easeOut});
}

what i do wrong?

please help me

This is actually the path it took to get to your error, so the error was triggered after the gotoAndPlay() method on frame20 of the intro animation. This is the only code in the intro animation? What code is on frame 3 of the main timeline?

Well, it’s actually coming from two different locations, it would seem:

at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndPlay()
at index.fla::Intro_5/frame20()

Frame 20 is where the action is located. I have also tried to import flash.display.*; and import flash.events.*;
as I had seen that might be necessary on some other forums.

What does the full error look like? Is it being thrown by the Intro Animation or the main timeline?

I’m working with a movie clip that is on the main timeline. It is an intro animation, located on Frame 2 of a 3-Frame Timeline. Frame 1 being a preloader, and Frame 3 being the content of a website. Here is my workflow:

Frame 1 – Preloader loads content –> Frame 2 – Intro Animation movieclip plays. When finished on the final frame, a gotoAndPlay code runs, telling it to go to –> Frame 3 – Content.

The AS3 code, located within the Intro movie clip is simply:

MovieClip(parent).gotoAndPlay(3);

And I get the type error. I have also tried running MovieClip(root) to no avail. Any ideas on where my problem might lie?

I have a a MovieClip that flip flops between being a MovieClip and a null object. The following code is on Frame 1 of a .fla with the bar_mc movieclip pre-placed on the stage and a large bitmap on Frame 2 to provide something to preload. Running the swf via ‘simulate download’ , the trace(bar_mc) function outputs MovieClip right up until the moment bytesloaded=bytestotal. Then it traces null. Then reverts to MovieClip. It works but I’m intrigued to understand what’s going on.

stop();

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, myprogress);

function myprogress(e:Event)
{
var loaded = stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded;
var totalLoad = stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal;

var loadedPercent = Math.floor((loaded/totalLoad) * 100);
trace (bar_mc);

if (loadedPercent == 100)
{
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, myprogress);
trace (loaded,totalLoad,bar_mc,root,loadedPercent);
}

if(bar_mc is MovieClip)
{
bar_mc.scaleX = loadedPercent/100;
}
}
