AS3 :: Flash Change The Text On A Button

Jan 30, 2012

I have created my own button class called custom_btn.I created it on the timeline and have exported it for use in ActionScript.I can make an instance of my button, and add it to the screen fine.The button has a dynamic text field that I would like to change the text in. I have tried to give the text field a name on the time line and the access it when I make the button, but I get an error (I think this is because the name isn't being saved to the class).How do I change the text?[code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Text Color In Previous Button When Click A New Button?

Mar 11, 2010

If I have say 7 buttons, each containing text that changes color on rollover using the "Up" "Over" and "Down" keyframes in the buttons' timeline.  Is there a simple way to get the button's text to change color when clicked, stay that way, and then change back to the original color once one of the other 6 buttons are clicked?
 
The only thing I can come up with is writing pages of code for each button that changes the color of every other button regardless of whether it was active.

Flex :: 4 - Add An Extra Text Field To The Button Component And Dynamically Change Text?

Jan 27, 2011

I created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.

Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mouse Over Button To Change Text In A Text Field?

Nov 4, 2010

when it comes to flash but managed to learn enough this past week to get a simple website up (getting laid off so scrambling to get portfolio online!). I have an upload test at lisedupuis.net. In my work section I have a bunch of thumbnails (buttons) for all of the video. Basically, I want to add a text field under the video player which will contain a movie clip name. I want to set it up so that when you mouse over the thumbnails the text changes to the correct movie clip name. I thought maybe creating an event listener might work but can't seem to figure out how to write it. Been looking online and not finding exactly what I need and I am in a huge rush.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change The Text On A Button?

Jun 4, 2009

I am in the Flash IDE. I do CTRL + F8 to create a new Symbol. I choose "Button" for the type of Symbol. I draw a rectangle, and then place a Text Field on top of the rectangle. I choose Dynamic Text for the Text Field, and I give the Text Field the instance name of "t1". My Symbol is now complete. I drag a copy of it to the Stage. I give this instance of the button Symbol the name "b1". My goal is simple. When the movie plays, whenever the user clicks the button I would like Flash to show a new random number (from 1 to 5) on the button.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Cannot Change Color Of Text On Button

Feb 15, 2003

I am trying to develop a flash site where people can choose from a list of "skins" and when they do, the site color changes. I have a button with the instance name "home". In the "Over" keyframe of this button I have a text box with the instance name of "overText". I can't change the text color

I have used the following code
// set the color
blue = 0x0000FF;
//set object and attibute
menuTextStyle = new TextFormat ();
menuTextStyle.color = blue;
//apply to the text field
_root.home.overText.setTextFormat (menuTextStyle);

I have also tried using _root.overText; home.overText at the start of the text field path but these have't worked either.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Value Of Dynamic Text Box Inside Button's Up / Over States?

Is it possible to change the value of a dynamic text box inside a button's up/over states? For example, I have a button in my library which has a dynamic text field in both the up and over states. My AS loads XML data and adds the correct number of buttons while filling in the text boxes from the XML data. It seems like this should be possible, but so far I haven't made any progress.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Change The Color Of A Dynamic Text Field When Press A Button?

Jun 17, 2004

I *know* this is simple. I've read every thread on this board pertaining to this (including senocular's Best Of thread), done everything there and this still doesn't work and I can't see why.

I feel like an idiot even asking, because I've seen the examples and lengthy tutorials.

All I want to do, is change the color of a dynamic text field when you press a button. But I want the name of the field to be a variable.

Now, this is what's there:

1. the variable "_root.expinttype1" is equal to "branch" and is set elsewhere.
1a. There is an existing dynamic field called "branch" on screen.

2. On the button release I set the format:

[Code]....

Why? I set a dummy variable txt = _root.expinttype1; and even threw it into a text field to verify the data, and it shows "branch", so why doesn't this work?
