I've currently got a content movieclip that is being scrolled via 2 buttons but I would like to add an actual scrollbar to it but I'm completely at a loss.. I've tried looking up tutorials but the ones I find are either for dynamic text boxes or are for AS3.

I'm trying to use an array to add a click listener to an existing Button. Black,Blue...etc are the button Names. the location of the nested button would be: this.mc1.mc2.contents.m3.black.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doThisFunction);
var myArray:Array = new Array ("black","blue","green","orange");
for(var k:int =1; k<myArray.length; k++){

I am trying to build a vertical slide scroller based on a tutorial for a horizontal slide scroller and am having difficulties undertanding what values I need to change in the code for the slider mc in order to make it work. The horizontal slider is quite smart [code]
View 3 Repliesmy problem is that if you go over the menu text above my scroller it controls the scroller. I wan this areas movement to have no effect on the scroller below. is there a way to script my scroller to set it to this?

change vertical scroller to horizontal scroller?
View 2 RepliesI have added a button to Lee's scroller * ; to the 'content' movie clip, inside the scroller. Testing the movie, Flash recognises the mouse click -and doesn't give me any compiler errors- however, the button doesn't function. I am guessing my code isn't well enough written to get the playhead to move within the main timeline, as it is embedded in a movie clip (the content mc) within another movie clip (the scroller mc), perhaps. Using AS3, what additional code do I need to add to what I already have written?
My code for the button:
// handle events for back to menu button ...
btnbacksmilejapan.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickJapanSmiletoMenu);
function clickJapanSmiletoMenu (evtObj:MouseEvent) {
//trace shows what's happening ... in the output window
trace ("The Japan Smile back toMenu button was clicked")
// go to the Menu
gotoAndPlay("scene two jpn");
}
I would like to use it as a horizontal scroller for an image gallery. Just to clarify a horizontal dragger and a horizontal stage motion for image viewing.
fscommand("allowscale", "false");
bar.useHandCursor = dragger.useHandCursor=false;
space = 20;

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.
View 4 RepliesI have been following all the wonderful tutorials in this forum to learn about AS and flash. This time I tried to combine 2 tutorials and make a text field with external loaded text and custom scroller button, but I failed.....
I tried to look for different tutorials to find the answer, but It didn't work out either...
I am trying to build a vertical slide scroller based on a tutorial for a horizontal slide scroller and am having difficulties undertanding what values I need to change in the code for the slider mc in order to make it work. The horizontal slider is quite smart and there is additonal functionality attached to it to affect it's movement which I'm not too worried about although it would be nice)

let's say i have a text scroller like this:what i need is when the scroller goes at the bottom and there is nothing else to show,with some trick to call a fuction so the "down" button disappear.i need this cause i made a scroller only with 2 buttons, and they don't look like broswer's scrollbar. (they are at the center up/down of the text scroller)
View 2 RepliesI have been asked to loop an existing FLV file that someone else created. I do not know what version of Flash was used to create this file, however I do have an older version 7.2 Flash MX Pro. Currently the FLV starts automatically and stops and the end of the movie. The owner of the site would like the movie to start over with a continuous loop. I'm pretty much of a rookie with Flash and with HTML5 coming out soon, I don't think I'll get a chance to become a pro at this.

In the flash file. Now I will admit Im new to flash, but I have dug everywhere I can think of in the project folder for that command line.
As you can see from the screen shot, its in frame0 on Sprit12. Ive looked in the properties of layer 1, in the properties of sprite12, and looked in the frame. Where would this be?
how do i add a preloader to an already made swf?also, do i have the preloader open up in seperate html file.don't want to buy any programs to do this.i did try it by just changing the file names to preloader file name to load the swf.but it push all the content over to the right side of the screen.

View 1 RepliesI have a mp4 file put in my website, say I want a swf player that can be embedded into my html, and play the mp4 file. I don't know how to write actionscript so I just want to have an existing swf file.
View 2 RepliesA project I'm involved in has a specific requirement where a layer must be added on top of an existing SWF. The SWF is created by converting a PDF using SWFTools pdf2swf. This layer will be used to add interactive elements like videos or sound on top of the existing text content in the SWF.
My problem is, when I try to import the SWF into Flash Pro, it sort of breaks up and it's not possible to see the SWF or its elements correctly.
I've tried making the SWF a MovieClip symbol after importing and called its play() and gotoAndPlay(i) methods to no avail. Using an external SWF with a loader works, but the SWF should be internal so the whole project can be compiled to iOS and Android in one go.
Are there any other methods I could use to interact with a SWF and make it work inside my FLA project?
One of my customers has many SWF and he would like to port them to iPad. However, he only has the SWFs, not the FLAs. I'd like to know if it is a way to run the SWFs inside an Air for iOS app. I've read you can import then with a Loader, but they will only run as an animation ignoring all the code inside them. UPDATE] I've read something about using SWC, but still not sure if they will run the code.

1. Create an .fla & an external .as file and put them in the same folder. Also put the .swf file that you're wanting to load in the folder as well.
2. Make your .as file the Document Class for your .fla. I named my .as file Preloader
3. Create a text field on the stage with an instance name of percent_txt
4. Put the following code in the .as file:

How do you go about adding a proloader to a pre existing movie. I already designed my movie but need at proloader to give my users something to look at for 220k. All the tutorials show you how to make a proload for an image you import into a new movie? Can I copy/paste a already made preloader? The movie I need a preloader for is loading external swf's, how do you proload that kind of a movie?

View 4 RepliesImmediately after finding out I was laid off I began to try and increase my online presence by building a webpage.I found a flash web template that I was able to highly customize however I can't figure out how to add additional hyperlinks, images, etc. This crosses the line between dreamweaver and flash. The flash file is a complied file that flash creates and I can only edit it if I have all the original files (kinda, there are other ways around that). Anyways, I have all the files, I think however I still can't seem to figure it out.
I would like to add additional images, hyperlinks, and maybe even move some stuff around however it seems like everything is either locked down of difficult to modify. I have looked around online for some good tutorials however I can't seem to find any that match what I'm trying to do. Would it be best to try and build the hyperlinks in flash or should I do that in dreamweaver? Dreamweaver I'm guessing, however since I'm editing the site via .xml the insert hyperlink capabilities within dreamweaver are not enabled unless I'm directly editing the index.html. By the way, I'm using CS4 Flash and Dreamweaver. [URL].
