ActionScript 1/2 :: Script A Scroller Button To Control The _y Position Of A Movieclip?
Oct 4, 2009
i'm wondering how i can script a scroller bar to smoothly control the _y position of a movieclip on the flash stage, so when the user clicks and drags the scroll button up and down the scroller bar the movieclip scrolls to the relevant position alongside it. i have the button and the movieclip seperated, but both on the same parental level on the timeline.i'm currently using motion tweens (controlled by clicking the up and down buttons of the scroll bar) to animate the movieclip's and the scroller button's_y positions and i'm scripting the fla file in AS2.

I'm using the new Spark Datagrid for a project, but I must confess the scroller is annoying me a little bit, so I would like to have some control over it.

The last couple of days I've been juggling with a news reader in flash (from the example tutorial here on Kirupa), and this works perfectly. My eye however fell on the scroller that is applied in this newsreader. For my websites I've used several sripts for scrolling, but this one suits me the best, and I would like to use it on more occasions. However the "problem" is that in the newsreader the scroller is used for scrolling a dynamic text field.Ideally I would like to apply it for scrolling Movieclips (like I used to do with the scroller I used in the past). Although I understand actionscrpit to a moderate level, this is a little to much for me. the script used for the scroller is this:
Code:
// global functions
Clamp = function(min, n, max){

I have a thumbs_mc with thumbnail images. Within thumbs_mc, I have a transparent overlay_mc that functions as a button. Mouse over the overlay_mc and the alpha chages so there is a tint over that particular thumbnailWhen overlay_mc is clicked, the main timeline goes to a particular frame label.What I need to do is have the position of the playhead on the main timeline also determine the alpha of the overlay_mc so the viewer knows which thumbnail is playing.

I have a button inside a movieclip, to which I would like to apply a rollover function. When rolled over, this button (inside MOVIECLIP 1) would make (MOVIECLIP 2) jump to second frame. I'm using Flash 8.This is turning onto a real headache for me, since i've searched every single forum and thread concerning this matter, and nothing seems to work.

Basically the x position of the mouse should control the play position of a movie. Do I need something like an event handler (I'm not sure exactly what these do, but I've seen similar scripts that seem to use them).

I created a auto scroller which works fine but I would like to change it so that I can reuse it without changing different values each time. The movie consist of a scrollmc and a maskmc (just a rectangle)
So if I write,
right = 150;
150 being the _x position of maskmc
why wouldn't it work if I change it to
right = maskmc._x;

Basically, my problem is that i've got 15 buttons labeled Channel 1 to Channel 15, but when the page first loads up, it skips down showing the very last button at the bottom, rather than the very first button at the top. The top button is off the screen.

I'm using the dynamic scroller found on the kiropa site found here [URL]..In the action script on the ScrollBar, I can't find what variable to change to reset the position of the bar to the top of the scroller when I use the same dynamic text area for other content. It loads just fine, but if the scroller was left at the bottom, it stays there on the new text until you move it a bit, then the text catches up.
I'm hoping to find the variable and reset it when the new text loads.

I've created a simple scrolling thumbnails movieclip, with movement based on interacting with the timeline of the MC rather than its position based on the mouse position.
Although the timeline is activated when one moves their mouse to either end of the thumbnail panel, I wanted to include a scroll bar to show how far up or down the user had scrolled.
Now, I wanted to know whether I could make that scroll bar interactive, and drag to change the frame number. The scroller is a motion tween that moves from the top to the bottom of the scroll bar in sync with the thumbnails. Can I make the bar dragable, and tell it to move through the frames as it is dragged up and down?
Here is my site again:

I have a simple arrangement where a movieclip moves to a new x y position when a button is clicked. I want the movieclip to slowly move or 'glide' there instead of jumping straight to the new position.
Heres the code..
btn_up.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, moveUp) ;
function moveUp(event:MouseEvent):void {{
allcontent.x += 200;
allcontent.y += 200;
}}

I am new to AS but trying to control my MC to move up and down. It's working but I want it to stop at a point so it doesn't go to high and stop at a point where it doesn't go too low.
I got this so far
moveUp.onPress = function() {
gtr_MC.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._y -= 1; };};
moveUp.onRelease = function() {
delete gtr_MC.onEnterFrame;

I've got 3 pages each with their own portfolio loaded dynamically from an XML file. Everything is working great with the thumbnails i added using the "adding thumbnail" tutorial. There's only one quirk I can't figure out. If you've scrolled to the end of the thumbnails on the first portfolio, the scroller stays in the same place when you go to the next portfolio rather than reloading back at the beginning. I hope that makes sense because it's hard to explain, but the site is [URL] here's the partial code for the thumbnails...

I am trying to use rhamejs slideshow (located here) and I would like to move the scroller to a certain position on the stage but I'm not sure how to do it. My stage is 900px wide with a nav bar along the bottom. All I want to do is move the scroller to the right of my nav buttons and left of another button that is in the far right corner. I would like to stay within that space which expands depending on your browser/screen size. The main stage is set up to resize based on browser/screen size and all the nav buttons are anchored. I basically need the left edge of the scroller to be 535px from the left edge of the stage at all timesI need the right edge of the scroller to be 185px from the right edge of the stage at all times. I have tried editing these lines but after the width of your window gets to a certain point, the thumbs stop scrolling or disapear completely:
Code:
if (nav == "nobuttons") {
scroller._x = 0;

I have a movieclip inside the OVER on a button, right now I have an animation that causes the button's brightness increases from 0 to 10 over 24 frames and then come stops because of a stop (). I now intend to add an animation after stop () which gets the button's brightness goes back to 0 again when you no longer hold the mouse over the button. I would therefore like to make some kind of mouseOut event that allows Movieclip go to the next frame. I have tried to insert a target path but it seems that it can't reach the movie clip inside the button.

I have a stop on my main timeline. At the stop I have a movieclip play. In the movieclip I will have a video play. After the video plays I have a button for the user to continue play until the end of the movieclip. Once the movieclip is done I want to resume back to a specific frame in my main timeline.

I am trying to do a simple thing in theory. In my main timeline I have a series of images with frame labels for each. In a movieclip (with its own labels) below the images, I have two panels of butttons that flop back and forth (to save space). The idea is to simply have the maintime play the frame specified by the corresponding button in the movieclip. [code]...

I created a Movie Clip with a button inside it. The Movie Clip contains simple animation within its timeline. I dragged the Movie Clip to the main stage and tested the movie/ My goal is to have the button start the animation inside the Movie Clips timeline but it is not working.The Movie Clip instance is named 'film_mc' and the button inside it is named 'first_btn.' The frame is labeled 'one'. I tried these two Action Scripts that I put on the main timeline. Where am I going wrong?
film_mc.first_btn.onRelease=function(){
film_mc.gotoAndPlay("one");
}

I am trying to load a movieclip and have it be controlled by a play and a pause button. The load works good and the code for the play/pause works.
I need the "test2" file to load the "ball_mc" file and then I should be able to play and pause the ball as it runs across the screen. I think I need it to be a swf file also, but Flashkit won't let me upload that type of file.

I've created a movieclip with buttons inside that I want to use to navigate to different scenes on the main timeline. I have created a function() that loads the button movieclip into the main timeline, but if I try to write a function() to activate the button and move the main timeline to a different scene/frame label it doesn't work. I have tried various things:
navBack_mc.book_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop("book1");
}
I put the code above on the main timeline. It doesn't seem to work. Basically, I could put just an on(release) handler on the buttons, but I wanted to try to keeping all the AS in one place if I can.

I added a Menu_mc on my stage. Initially, this should be at the center of the stage and when I click on it, it will tween on the upper left corner of the browser. However, when I resize the browser, the Menu_mc goes back to the center of the screen.
I have tried separating a different actionscript file where it is specifically for initialization of the object and another one for resizing. And then when I call it on my main AS file it goes like this:
Code:
// Add the symbols to stage
var Menu_mc = new Menu_MC();
addChild(Menu_mc);

But it seems futile.

I'm hoping someone can solve this headache. Basically, I want a movieclip to move to the position of each of my buttons from any position along my x axis. Therefore, the movieclip needs to 'flip' to face the way it is traveling.At the moment I have the movieclip moving to the mouse x axis when I ROLLOVER the button and stop following the mouse when I ROLLOUT but the code won't flip the movieclip so I must have something wrong...
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,followCa t);
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,stopCat);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,follow Cat);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,stopCat );

setting a position of movieclip called red x and y position within a movieclip called background
Code:
background.redsquare.x = 300;
background.redsquare.y = 300;
comes up with TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
setting a position of movieclip called red x and y position withen a movieclip called background
Code:
redsquare.x = 300;
redsquare.y = 300;
This works fine but how can that be when surely you must access the red withen the background rather then just accessing red?
