View 1 RepliesI have been searching posts for the last few days and I can't seem to narrow down my particular issue. I see lots of posts and threads related to swap depths but I can't seem to get it to work. I assume swap depths are what I need to do but I want to run the idea by you all. I have 5 mc each with an image and an animation, it's your basic zoom menu. all are on the same layer and all on one frame. what is the best way to get images to the front of the rest as I do a mouse over? right now the example script I am using is
[Code]...
- The menu scrolls to the left when mouse is over the left side of the menu (there will be an arrow pointing left), and the menu reacts in the opposite fashion when the mouse is over the right side of the menu- The menu is constantly scrolling in the left direction when the mouse is not over the left or right arrow- The menu stops scrolling (or slows down) when the mouse scrolls over any of the items in the side-scrolling menu.

View 4 Repliescan i change the depths of two movieclips on the same layer with swapdepths? like...
mc1.swapDepths(mc2 + 1);
it's not working for me. So i figure you can't do it with two mc's on the same layer...
create a rollover button that once hovered over would create the snow and once 'un-hovered over' (<---:s) the snow would stop falling. I tried creating the button but kept getting errors etc.... Im a total noob (been using flash for about 1 month) if you could give us a hand that would be great....
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to integrate swap depths with map scrolling. Here is my current code:
SWF:

Code:
var mapItem:Array = new Array(_root.tree1, _root.building1, _root.keith,_root.shinru);
mapControl = function () {
_root.player.swapDepths(_root.player._y);
[code]....
The problem lies within the fact that the bounds are pushing away the player too fast for Flash to finish cycling through the array of items.
I have made some images into animated buttons that enlarge on rollover, bring each layer to the front on rollover, I am working in CS3 with actionscript 2
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a Flash Movie that emulates those poetry magnets. There are a bunch of buttons (magnets) on the stage and when you click on one, you can drag it and place it next to another. That way you can write sentences by moving the buttons (magnets). The only problem is that I want it so when I click on a button (magnet), that it sets it's depth higher than the other ones so it will look realistic, like you are actually moving it over the others insted of over some and under others. Is there anything that I can add to the on (press) handler to change the depth of the movie clip being clicked on?
View 3 Repliesi've been receiving a ton of help here and love it but Im having a really bad time fixing this one part of an infographic im making. i need to do the following in a flash cs4/as2.0 file:
1.) make all boxes draggable on the stage
2.) on click/hover bring layer to the front.

[URL]In this turorial you will see three 3D models turning around in a scene. You can turn the whole scene around with your mouse.Imagine that you replace the models by 2D pictures. It's easy to stop the rotation of the individual models (or 2D pictures).Is it possible to let the models always be pointed with the same side to the front? So if you turn the whole scene around with your mouse, the individual models (2D pictures) will always be with the same side to the front. Just as in a Tag cloud where the text is always readable.

So, I have a line of buttons that pop up when moused over. Unfortunately, due to their proximity to one another, I have a lot of overlap occurring. Is there a way to bring the activated button in front of the others via as?

View 1 RepliesBefore I started armaturing, I added 200 frames, but I only needed 67.. Now I cannot remove the frames in front of the armatured layer! I can't delete, and if I push it backwards it all just compromises and goes really quick. I cannot move poses, nor can I cut/copy them.

I have run into a new problem in trying to get my flash site to expand properly. I am trying to make it liquid-like by anchoring things to the right side. I don't want it to just scale, as it alters the dimensions or shows a border. The problem is that I have an animation ( a wave that moves in from the right and then back out to cover/reveal the pages). The problem is that I can't seems to get that animation to work with the anchoring techniques i've read, as it is a tween and not a contained movie object alone (I need the tween so that I can control the wave coming when the user clicks a button)
View 17 RepliesFor my college project I've created buttons were when you roll over images they are enlarged. The problem I have is when I roll over the images, the one next to the one I want shows in front of the image that I'm scrolling over with the mouse. I want it so that the image being rolled over is in front. For example when the magazine article on the far left is enlarged it goes behind the logos next to it instead of in front so you can see clearly what's being scrolled.

View 1 RepliesI'm creating a pop-up menu for a game and I've run into some difficulty manipulating its layer 'depth' relative to the other graphics on the stage. I understand how to manipulate layers etc. when coding on the timeline, but I am making this game entirely class-based; how do you manipulate graphic 'depth' dynamically in pure AS3 code? How does the flash player assign 'depth' to symbols which are created from code in the first place? (the problem I'm having is that some graphics I add dynamically at runtime always appear above the menu, despite the fact that the menu isn't created until later, when the user presses a menu button)
View 5 RepliesI've made a parallax scroller consisting of three layers (actually each layer is a movieclip). On the bottom layer I have attached some sprites which I want to be clickable. The problem is that objects which are on the middle and front layer are "blocking" the sprites so they can't be clicked. I've googled for nested listeners but haven't found a solution yet.

Basically it would have several thumbnails that would keep scrolling for ever (some how duplicating the content in a mask).

View 6 RepliesDoes flash have a wait command?i have this code here
Code:
targ._x = targ._x - 2.500000;
if (targ._x <= -350)
{
targ._x = 344;
} // end if
}
it scrolls targ from right to left and when targ gets to -350 it restarts by putting targ clip back at 344 (start point)my Q is does flash have a wait command? because i want to stop the side scrolling when the targ gets to -100 then wait a few seconds the nrestart scrolling.
