I want to know the actionscript for when hovering over a button which is a picture, the whole screen fades into a translucent grey (with everything else still in the background) and have a larger version of my picture appearing on top of the grey. And when the mouse leaves the button, the grey and the larger version of the picture will fade out and return back to my original.

When I addChild(<external swf - p2>), I also want to removeChild(<swf that loaded it - p1>). I can't seem to make that work. In p1, I've tried removeChild(this) or removeChild(this.parent), but I get Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. If I try stage.removeChild(this), it removes everything and I get a grey screen. If I try MovieClip(parent).removeChild(this) I get Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Stage@1cd94461 to MovieClip.
In p2, I don't know how to reference it properly because when I trace(this), I get Object MainTimeline and when I trace(this.parent), I get Object Loader. If I try stage.removeChild(this.parent), I get Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at allproducts_fla::MainTimeline/frame1().
I am trying to create a flash animation in which a text title fades in to the screen. I created the text, converted it to a symbol, then tried to create a motion tween in which I could tweak the alpha values of the text object. However when I try to create the keyframe, the popup that comes up has the Color option greyed out (which is where I believe the alpha setting lives).
View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a toggle button where, when the user clicks it, it changes from grey to red. I am using movie clips rather than "button" symbols because, when switching between states, buttons look kind of bouncy after you click them. I have everything working, however, because I am using movie clips the "hand" cursor does not appear when I hover over the buttons. I am using very basic code:

I need a button initiated cross-fade. This, for me, began as a MooTools adventure, but I've been advised by the JS developers on MooTools to pursue this with Flash. For reasons that I'm that I'm sure are obvious to you AS wise ones.I've just joined AS.org joined and have just used Awilderbeast's cross-fade AS3 snippet here:Awilderbeast's code being [my needs are explained below the code]:

A while ago I had a problem. But the solution was beyond my understanding, so that's why I ask it again ...
I have a button named
"Eric_btn",
but in this button I have 3 movieclips due to the shade I had to put in.
The name the hit button =
"Erichit_mc"
Once you have pressed the button I want to load a movie which fades out the 3 buttons. Once the fading out had finished I want it to load a website.

This is my first post here and it my be a hard one to understand? Overview I have four buttons on the main stage (info) (help) (bio) (main) When you Rollover a button it fades to another color/when you rollout it fades back to the original color I have a script that does the color change because I do not want to use motion tweens. Here is what I did I made a 2 frame MC named infoMC In the 1st frame of the MC I made the word (info) a nested MC and attached the color change code to it. The 2nd frame of the MC Is the same as the 1st frame but I revesed the color change
[Code]....
I have the following script on a movie clip which fades the clip in when your mouse is over the MC and fades it out when your mouse moves off. It works fine, but it "flickers" when its faded in all the way. How can I stop that?

How should vector artwork be drawn in Freehand so that white details sitting over a blue base are still readable when alpha of e.g. 50% is applied in Flash 8 ? In Freehand 9 I created a logo. Logo has an rgb mix blue base rectangle and rgb white drawn shapes on top. I also drew over the text and gave it the rgb blue as a fill with line none. That sits on top of one of the white shapes.

I'm getting a flickering issue with my too tip hovers. I've tried writing the code in 2 different ways and I'm still getting the same thing! Each way seems to work fine if there's only one object, but when there are more than one and you start moving the mouse between the 2 this really annoying flickering keeps occurring? My file needs to have several objects which all overlap. I've tried altering the hit areas so that they don't actually touch - but no effect.I've also tried swapping ROLL_OVER for MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_MOVE but all with no results!
View 3 RepliesI have a small Flash movie. I want it to play if a user hovers over a div. When the user hovers on the div, the Flash will then play above that div (i will use absolute positioning to display the flash), but wanted to know how I can call the Flash to play by a div.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to create a Thumbnail class that extends MovieClip and have run into a "loop". When I hover a cursor over a Thumbnail instance it fires an over and an out event. That is, that happens if I add any kind of filter to the Thumbnail class in the over event, if I leave that out and trace the code it fires only the over event and waits till the cursor leaves the thumbnail. I have tried adding the GlowFilter and the ColorMatrixFilter with the same effect: premature ROLL_OUT.

View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip that throws out a bunch of little stars. I then have a button (a big star) and I want the movie clip to play when the button is hovered upon. So, basically when you hover over the big star a bunch of little stars float up from behind it. I have attached my fla, and my code for the movie clip is below:

How would the .fla that has text and when mouse is over that text an image appears look like?
I was thinking to make the text a button and then add some script....
I've built a simple little XML gallery. Features I need to add.
1) ButtonMode when hovering over the the thumbnails. I get "1119: Access of possibly undefined property buttonMode through a reference with static type flash.display:Loader." when I add it in.
2) One of the images loaded in is actually a SWF with a video that auto plays when the thumbnail is clicked. It play fine but when you click on a different thumbnail, you can still hear the video playing in the background. How to I property unload it. You can also see the last image behind the video player so unloading those would be great too.
3) As you can see in my code below, when you roll over or out of the thumbnails their alpha property changes. I want to make it so that when you click on a thumbnail it's alpha will remain 1 until another thumbnail is clicked and then it's alpha will change to 1.
4) Now this is the tricky part. I need to put an invisible "next" button over the large image that when clicked will load the next image or swf. It will also need to change the alpha property of the corresponding thumbnail to 1 so its matches.

I have a menu and I would like a caption describing the menu item, it needs to change for every menu item that I hover over. I could do this manually and include 6 descriptions saved as text and just make each appear depending on which menu item I choose, or I could make the same element appear for every button I hover over and let the actionscript generate the text dynamically.

I need to create a color formula converter that goes between HEX, RGB, CMYK and Gray Scale.
With wonderful help from members of this site, I have the HEX to RGB to HEX portion working. Particular thanks to JSEBRECH on color formula conversion and previously to GIBBERISH for helping me master updating arrays from changed input text fields, and with other important help from DEADBEAT, VREELPOWER and PAEREZ. You have all been very helpful and generous.
how to convert either HEX or RGB to CMYK or to Gray Scale?
