ActionScript 1/2 :: Mouseover Highlight Not Aligned To Shape
Feb 15, 2012
I have 3 buttons (on this example), each has a mouseover so the button will highlight once the mouse enters the shape. This all works, however the mouseover area seems to be aligned half OFF of the shape. E.G. the shape will highlight when hovering off of the shape on one side, and from half way accross the shape on the other.
Here are some grabs and the general code I have.
for(var x = 1; x < 4; x++) {
var currentBut = eval("but"+x);
currentBut.onMouseMove = function(){
if(this._xmouse > 0 && this._xmouse < this._width && this._ymouse > 0 && this._ymouse < this._height){
this.gotoAndStop(2);
} else {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}};}

I have a basic mouseover in my flex application which changes an image onmouseover and changes it back onmouseout using the code mouse Over "functionToChangeImageSource()" and another one to mouseout.It works fine when you slowly mouse over and out, however if I quickly move the mouse over it, it occasionally stays on the mouseover image and the mouseout function doesnt appear to kick in. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or does anyone have any ideas why its happening?Also, I've tried the rollOver and rollOut instead but it has the same problem.[code]I'd imagine you're correct about the mouseover event not completing before mouseout is but how to I fix this?
I have a simple movie clip for which i bind two events 1-MouseOver and MouseOut
in these events i am just tracing simple text
But the Problem is when i take my mouse over the movie clip both events called tracing the string in the output panel
Infact, things should be done like that on mouse over, its text is printed and when i take my mouse away[out] from the movieClip MouseOut event should be called.
ActionScript Code: package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class Base extends MovieClip { public var baseHP:int = 50; var newRect:Shape = new Shape();
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Shape. 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Shape. What does it mean by "undefined method"? I am somewhat of a newby, so sorry if there are any stupid errors
Id like to know if there is a way to do a shape hitTest.Not as the normal hitTest would do, but shape colliding another shape, not the rectangleof a movieclip.It can be in a movieclip.
please look at this jpg its a screen shot of a standard flash doc on my comp - as you can see the page is aligned to the left and i don't know how to centre this in a page its frustrating because i cant bleed objects off the left of the page.
I'm pretty new to flash but recently got an assignment at college to produce a childrens game, I've been following a tutorial online to produce a jigsaw puzzle, so I can get use to actionscript and gain a little experience. I cant get some alignment right. I've followed this tutorial exactly and this is where i am stuck, below are the instructions and how it should look: This is how mine looks, as you can see its out of place:
Is it possible to force movieclips to be aligned to the top of your swf? but not have them overlap, so they stack underneath? For example, i have 4 movie clips on my stage, the stage is 800px tall. the movie clips are about 150px tall. How through actionscripting how would i force them so that the top movieclip aligns to the top of the stage, and then the rest align directly under it? The 4 movieclips are also dynamically re-arrangeable. You can drag them into a different order.
I made the this tutorialhttp:[url]....and align the movie clip instance to the stage.The problem is when I test the movie the picture is loaded like the movie clip instance is the top left "insertion point" so the picture is not centered. How can I fix this to make the picture aligned in the page?
Whenever I draw a shape with Object Drawing turned on the blue bounding box that appears whenever it is selected isn't aligned properly to the outer edgers of the shape. Like this:
Admittedly it isn't a major problem it's just a bit irritating especially when people I'm teaching to use Flash ask me why it looks the way it does. Does anyone else have this problem?
New to flash... there is one element (searchfield) which is right-aligned, and it stays that way. If I move it, or change coordinates, it does change its up&down position, but stays right aligned (no absolute position, it shifts when window is made larger/smaller). I do need a clue where I turn that off. I found several levels of layers, and I think I have put every (text) align to left. Still no use.

I have 2 advanced data grids, one above the other. They both have the exact number of columns, and pertain to each other in the same way. But each is showing different data, which is why I split into 2 grids. However, on each one you can resize the columns, what I would like is to make it so that if you resize a column on either datagrid the same column on the opposite datagrid resizes as well, so they are both always lined up.
In my flash application I am using a typewriter effect, to make it seem as if text is written on the fly. When I do so, my punctuation marks (question mark, dot, ect.) get aligned to the wrong direction (to the right). I am writing in Hebrew (right-to-left).
I am trying to apply a new text format to my text field on a movie clip onRollOver. The new text format is properly/correctly applied when I moused over, and the main difference that is applied onRollOver is to have the text underlined. The only problem I'm having with this is that the actual underline itself appears to be about two pixels to the left of my text string so it looks like its not aligned properly with the text.[CODE]...
I have finally finished my website. It works great, except the website is placed far on the left side of the screen. I would like my website to be placed in death center, kind of floating in the center and stay the same size regardless of how viewer adjusts the window size.I am trying to change alignment in PUBLISH SETTINGS (html alignment) but there is no "center" option. Only right, left, top, bottom. Here is the link to my posted .html: [URL]
I am having a problem with center aligned dynamic text (externaly loaded, css formatted,pixel fonts, embeded) I am using pixel font. I think the problem is not with the font. When I place the text box on the stage and manualy align it center - text is not blury.But since text is loaded from html and it is css formatted I have to center align it in my css file
I have a text box that is 100x100. How can I make the text start aligning along the bottom? So if I have 1 line of text its on the bottom of the text box, if I have 2 lines of text...its the bottom 2 lines of the text box, if i Have 5 lines of text...it takes up the whole box, starting from the top?
using the shape tool you can draw basic shapesthen using the subselection tool you can re-shape them by relocating certain points
What i want to do is create a tween whereby one of the points is movedthe problem is you have to convert to a symbol first and after you have done that you cant change the shapes shape.so how do i go about using a motion tween to change the shape of a shape?
I have a TextField and I am trying to display embedded images using htmlText:
var test:TextField = new TextField(); test.multiline = true; test.wordWrap = true;[code]....
In this case the raftImg is in the Assets class. The problem is that the image does not align as it should (it always stays in upper left corner). If I load it using "../ blah/ img.gif" it works properly.
I have the following problem: I use that script to rotate a arrow. from 0 to 90 Degrees.But with this script I can the arrow only between 0 and 90 degrees can rotate when the mouse hovers over it in this area. how can I change the order of the arrow is aligned correctly when I do with the mouse only the corresponding circular movement no matter where it is located on the Flash Programm?
My Script:
ActionScript Code: // calculate rotation based on mouse X & Y _dx = Eichhorn.x - mouseX; _dy = Eichhorn.y - mouseY;
I'm trying to do a similar effect that this site does: [URL] It's a full flash site. How do you make sure the scrollbar for example stays on the right hand side of the screen depending on what resolution/size of the browser the user is using. Even if they then resize it, the scrollbar ends up on the right hand side at all times.
Also the content is moved to the center when you resize the width of the screen. At the moment though I'm just interested in how to keep something aligned to the right dynamically.
My workspace is 1000X1200 and I have a background image in Flash 1920 width. I want the SWF to aligned to center in the HTML with a regular browser scroller.
I'm trying to publish 100% X 100% with no scale but the scroll bar doesn't show from bottom to top and the SWF parts are missing!
How can I make it to show the background (what outside stage) with regular browsers scrollers and align to center?
If I want to align things vertically in a container, I'll use verticalAlign="middle", but this doesn't exactly solve the problem of truly aligning text vertically. Text is always too high vertically, so in the past, I've just adjusted paddingTop and paddingBottom to compensate, but that doesn't work as the font for _sans differs from operating system to operating system.
Given the following layout code, you'll see the problem:
What happens is pretty clear. The horizontal line gets aligned to the exact middle of the box, but the text is offset by some arbitrary amount. I assume that this is because of the text baseline alignment or something. Is there a way to fix this regardless of the font size and face? I'd like to have the line essentially go right through the middle of the text, ignoring the extra space possibly needed for below the logical line of text (ie: ignore the bottom part of "g's" and "j's" when laying things out).
