ActionScript 1/2 :: Buttons / MC On Timeline Don't Appear Until Mouse Roll Over In Browser
Jun 12, 2010
I am experiencing some weird behavior with some moveclips and buttons on my video player; (as2)URL...I have created a video player that has the scrubber/playpause button actually move with the position in the video. There are other links that appear when the main video is at a certain point. There seems to be 2 problems with it which I cant figure out what is going on...
-1st is that the scrubber is actually linked to the timeline (where the buttons are on) with the follwing code;MovieClip.prototype.scrubbb2 = function (x){var f2:Number = Math.round (this._totalframes * x);this.gotoAndStop (f2);}For some reason the timeline starts from when the video is buffering, so its all out of sync with certain points in the video. But when you move the scrubber, the timeline seems to 'snap' into place and then all the videos line up.
-2nd is that the link buttons will not appear unless the mouse is over the flash video player on the webpage. If your mouse is out of the video player nothing appears when its meant to. as soon as you put the mouse cursor into the flash player the links (that are meant to be visible) appear instantly. Is there a way to make them always appear on time?!
So I have a menu that fades in on a movie clip rollover. It fades out when the mouse rolls out over a 'hit area' mc. All is working fine except when you move fast off the hit area. Sometimes the fade in menu remains up when the mouse should have traveled over the hit area and told it to fade out... any reccomendations to remedy this?
I have two buttons in my flex app next to each other, ButtonA and ButtonB. When the user does a mouse roll-over on any of the two buttons, I want the roll-over skin (overSkin) to show on both buttons, i.e. Button A and Button B. I tried to do it using this when user rolled over Button B:
I am trying to use a rollover or a click effect on a button placed in a time line. The button is in a different layer to the running time line. When I go in to up, over down, hit and insert a new frame there when the movie runs the button just flicks back and forwards continually.
How can I get the button to switch over only when I roll over or click it?
I have an MC on the main timeline. i want this mc to play only when i roll over so i have placed this code one the MC:
[Code]...
This works without a problem. When i rolover the MC it plays and thats all good however if the animation is half way through and i rollover again the MC restarts. I would like to add a condition statment that only allows the movie to play if its current frame is at 1 or only to play if it isnt currently playing. I appologise if i havent explained it too well.
I created a flash cs3 animation with about 6 layers.
I am going to place the .swf file into an html page I created with Dreamweaver. I want the swf file to only start playing when the user puts the mouse over it...and then stop when they take the mouse off. I know this needs to be done in the actionscript 3 in my flash document.
I thought it was something like this:
stop(); addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, playMovie); function playMovie(event) { play(); }
I've created movie clip, in which when you Roll Over it, it will load another movieclip within that frame which will display the menu (and in there are the buttons that link the scenes together).how do I get the movieclip that is within a movieclip, that is again in another movie clip to link to the next scene? Can it even be done with one of the movie clips asking as a roll over?

Basically I have a button and when i scroll over the button, the movie then follows the mouse, which is fine. But when I click it, I want it to stay under the mouse. I have given it the same actionscript on the 'down' state to follow the mouse, but it starts from a certain point. I don't want it to start from that point; I want it to stay the same wherever the mouse is when I click it.
So basically, the button follows and when I click, it stays in the same place.
I'm guessing the answer to my question is no, and the solution lies in the hitTest method. But just to be sure . . . if I create a new movie clip and then drag that movie clip over other movie clips that have MOUSE_OVER listeners is there anyway that those clips will get the mouse over?
I had looked for solution but can't find answer to this specific question. I got 2 buttons on the stage and each one directs to another page (Gallery and Contact). I want to show info text bellow these buttons in dynamic text field with information like "Gallery" and "Contact" when mouse rolls over that buttons. I need to do it in AS3.
I have a animation which plays from frame 1 to 10 and then stops. I have this animation inside a button. I have this button on the stage. Now when i play the movie, the animation in the button is played once. What i now want is that i want the movie to play once every time the mouse is rolled over this button.
Whats wrong with my buttons? here see how they rollover and dissappear and takes a second for them to reappear they should look like this Not counting the last button what did I do wrong here? I am modifying code of a programmer who is not with my company anymore and I need to edit this for a client
okay so i am trying to create a menu system that contains 6 buttons and positioned in the center of the stage . the button originates from the Library as a single MovieClip and positioned dynamically but how do i add a roll over and link each 6 buttons to 6 different websites?
I am looking for ActionScript 2 code that makes a movie clip disappear when a user moves their mouse over a particular area and then have the movie clip reappear when the mouse leaves that area.
ie. if the mouse is within _x.50 , _x.200, _y.50 , and _y.200 the mc is invisible, else its visible.
I think it would be some kind of "if" statement but I don't know syntax on how to code this.
Does anyone know of any great resources/tutorials etc on where I can create the same effect as the example link below regarding the horizontal scrolling?

I have googled and searched everywhere but can only find actual scrollbars.
I'm sure this isn't the greatest code in the world but here it is. I'm trying to get these movieclips (6 of them) to respond better. Right now, if a user clicks on one, they all blank out, and only display the x in the checkbox after the mouse rolls out.
I figured out how I can create a roll over effect on one button so it fades in & out depending on if you are on it or not. I'm trying to create the same effect for my other 13 or so buttons & I can't seem to get it. I keep getting errors any way I try to code it. This is the code I have **trying to add the code for my first 2 thumbs"
I've just started to look at PV3D working through the tutorials here. I'm trying to make up a menu system, just using primitive planes for the buttons and using a movieclip in the library for the texture, so far so good but I'm now getting a weird effect with the roll over/out. clicky here
If you just roll over the buttons randomly the roll over and out works fine but if you roll over one then roll out - but not over another button - then the roll over state remains. Checking the traces though the button does receive the roll out call but then immediately receives a roll over call putting it back in to a highlighted state.
I have a home page thing. all the buttlons fly in and such all i need is so when a mouse hovers over a button it lights up or the brightness increases and when you remove the mouse from the button it goes back to normal please help me out.
I have a mouse cursor that's changing to a hand symbol when it is over a button. I want to keep the pointer but change the hand symbol, to a symbol I created. This symbol is cursor_mc.So far I have this code:
Code: var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); mc.buttonMode = true;
