[ActionScript 3/Adobe Flash] Play a sound when user clicks button?

[RedPillow]

I found something like this:

Code: ActionScript [Select]

1. var snd:MySound1= new MySound1();
2.  
3. soundbutton_MC.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, soundbutton_Handler);
4.  
5. function soundbutton_Handler (e:MouseEvent):void {
6. snd.play();
7. }

I have the sound-effect in my Adobe Flash's library ... where should I put it and how to make the script know to play that one?

I don't know for sure, but it looks like the sound file might be defined in the MySound1 class.

You might be right ... someone said this:

sound works just as movieclips, create a sound in the .fla, use the linkage dialog in teh library and set Class to: "MySound1"
then use it with:

var snd:MySound1= new MySound1();
snd.play();

should work..

But since Im new with flash I have no idea how to "create a sound in the .fla, use the linkage dialog in teh library and set Class to: "MySound1"".
(Incase it's important ... Im making a basic starting-sequence for a flash-game/animation like "Game by: blahahah" and there's a button which links to my twitter but I want it to make *click* -sound when clicked)

It's been a few years since I used Flash, but I think you can import a sound file to your library from the File -> Import menu. As for linkage, right click the file in your library and look for a "linkage" option. It may be in the "Properties" menu.

For more specific help, I suggest you check the help file since I'm sure it would cover importing sound files and library linkage.

Oh ... I also have background-music playing from the start ... I'd like it to stop when I say so.

Tried this one:

Code: ActionScript [Select]

1. var bgMusic:bgMsc= new bgMsc();
2. bgMusic.stop();

Also this:

Code: ActionScript [Select]

1. var bgMusic:bgMsc= new bgMsc();
2. bgMsc.stop();

Error is this:

TypeError: Error #1006: stop is not a function.

Isn't this similar (this is playsound-function when someone click the twitter-button)?:

Code: ActionScript [Select]

1. function sound_play (e:MouseEvent):void {
2. snd.play();
3. }
