ActionScript 1/2 :: Tell Button To Be Unclickable (and Highlighted) While In Its Section
May 7, 2009
now i've divided my scene with frames labeled. say: at frame 1, it's my about section. At frame 20, its my photo section, etc. on the same scene, i've created my menu to navigate to these sections. each button calls a frame label, and the proper ainmation happens, and then, you're in the section you chose. NOW... (i have a feeling i should of thought about that earlier...) i'm trying to figure out a way to tell my button to be unclickable (and hightlighted) while you're in its section, until you leave that section. i know that my site is probably NOT constructed the way it should be. but starting over isnt really an option, since i have a deadline...

I have a set of buttons with the following script... so when clicked they go to relevant frame. My question is how to I temporarily disable a button so it appears highlighted but you cannot click it when you are in that spot. E.g. when scenario 1 button takes you to scenario 1, I only want the others buttons to be clickable...
A_scenario1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,part1scenario1);
function part1scenario1(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("label4"); }
A_scenario2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,part1scenario2);
function part1scenario2(event:MouseEvent):void {
[Code] ......

I need to give a value, then when I give another value, the actionscript goes to the new value slowly.So if I give 10, then I give 20, the value goes 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20. Basically I'm creating a dynamic menu that when a button is highlighted, a vine grows to the button. When you highlight the button next to it, the vine grows to the next button. I can't think of a way for this to work other than this value smoothing technique.

What I want to achieve is active links like in HTML websites.I have 3 buttons on the stage, when the user clicks on the first button it should be highlighted and should remain in that position till the user clicks on the next button. When he clicks on the 2nd button the previous one should come in normal state and the 2nd one should become highlighted and so on....

I have a flash menu that I'd like to use on a HTML page. I'd like to make it so that when a user clicks one of the buttons, that button will remain highlighted on the page that uploads. An example of this would be at [URL]. How is this possible with action script? I was told in another board that it had to do with variables, though the person did not give a clear explanation that I could understand. I'm new to action script but am learning bit by bit!

I have a button that I would like to use with the basic actionscript as follows:
on (release) {
this.gotoAndPlay("15");
}
What I would like it to do is play a section on the timeline and then move onto another section or scene.
[Code]....
I know this is incorrect, so would anyone know how to write an actionscript button that plays a section then goes somewhere else?

The content inside the scrolling area is a movie clip. Well, when I add script to the button inside the scrolling area movie clip, it's doing something weird... The script I'm adding is:

I want to build a flex FormItem extension that adds a button into the item label section, such that there is both a text label and, to the right of it, a button that uses an image icon: Basically, I want to create that 'i' icon, such that I can click on it to display a help overlay for the item in question.Is there an existing component that does this? If not, how do I do it?

When you go to each different section the content frame slides to the left regardless of what button you click.. We learned recently about buttonmode etc. and I can go to different Frames on a click.. but here it doesnt seem to go to a new frame it just loads each new clip with the same tiny effect? Is is pure scripting or how did they manage this??

I have many buttons in my interface --so I have many eventListeners running.
I want to set all non-button graphics to displayObject.mouseEnabled = false.
This works with some of the graphics. but not all.
The main shape (the big purple faceplate) of the interface continues to react to the mouseclick.

I've made a site where an iframe calls to a top navigation element, with a javascript drop down menu. I have it working where the menu drops over a center flash element, but even when the menu is not "dropped" - any element in that area on the flash does not respond to clicks.
I've changed z indexes, and now i cant seem to get the flash file to even be ontop of the iframe -
heres a link

I'm using Flash CS3 and want to create a custom ComboBox. I've followed the steps outlined in "Editing component skins in a new document" (http:/[url]...), but every time I get to the step where I drag the ComboBox Assets folder from the HaloTheme.fla library into my library, if I test movie at that point my combobox has become an unclickable white rectangle with no label, button or anything.

When i add a function to dispatch Mouse clicks on my DataGrid component like this:
Code:
myDataGrid.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, selectRow, false, 0, true);
selected rows (by mouse click) are not highlighted when i click once. but they highlights when i click twice. Maybe i'm not registering correctly the event ?
... and when i remove the event - evryting is work perfect.
here is the selectRow function
Code:
private function selectRow(e:MouseEvent):void {
if(e.target is CellRenderer) {
// do something
}
}

Have been incorporating XML data into applications for a while now... have now begun using it for medium to large navigation lists.While I can do any method of horizontal, clamshell, expandable, motion-based navigation etc I have a strange problem overall... I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to code a smart function that will check which nav item was clicked and keep it highlighted until another one is clicked... then that one would highlight and all of the others would be un-highlighted.
I can do rollOvers using references to XML array generated items. BUT-- the smart checker is something I cannot figure out... any ideas out there. Must be simple.

I'd like to be able to tell my ADG to set a specific row to be highlighted and update the adg rendering to match such new value. Note: highlight != selected.
I thought perhaps setting highlightUID would do the trick, but I can't seem to get the ADG rendering to update.

I've recently designed some menu buttons each one gets highlighted on mouse over and defaults back on mouse out. On Mouse click the button remains highlighted and when another button is clicked the current button goes back to its default state and the new button is now highightedI know this has been asked before, and I know how to do this using a timeline and having flags marking the 'start' 'end' and 'highlight' states on the timeline. My original code uses IF and gotoAndStop statements...But recently I've been getting into tween classes using as2 and would like to know how to achieve this effect using _alpha values within tween classes.To me it seems easier to do this purely with code, i.e _alpha is 0 then tween to 100 on rollover. On rollout it reverses, and on click the alpha immediately goes to 100 and stays at 100 until another button is pressed

i have a menu http[url]....that i want to have the month and day stay highlighted depending what page you are on. you will have to check it out to see what i am talking about
the menu sits on an asp page so the whole site is not all in flash but when someone clicks and month and day i want it to stay colored in even after they are taken to that page. i know their has to be a way to do this without making a menu for each month.
