square_mc is the draggable clip with the buttons inside, it is constrained to only move horizontally.
ActionScript Code:
buffer = 0 - square_mc._width + Stage.width;
square_mc.onPress = function()

startpos = this._x;

I have a movie clip on the main timeline in frame 1 that I named moveablekey. What it is supposed to be is a key for a map that you can move around on the map. When you scroll over/off the key it will hide/unhide the actual key. The key has some buttons that I want to allow to go to a different link when clicked. When I test the key without the code below it will work on the link and take me to the link, but when I put the code into the main timeline it stops the link from working. Here is what I think is happening: The code seems to make it so wherever I click on the movie clip it is doing the start/stop drag code and won't recognize the buttons within the movie clip. So is there a way that I can make just the header of the key to be clickable to start/stop the drag, but still move the entire key, and allow for the buttons to be clicked?
Code:
stop();
moveablekey.onPress = function(){
startDrag(this);
Mouse.hide();[code]..........
I have a movie clip with 15 frames. Each frame has buttons on it (mc's)... I was going to put the actions on the main timeline/stage and navigate within the MC from the main timeline. Is that possible? I can get the buttons on the first frame of the MC to work, but I can't seem to figure out how to target/make the buttons on the other frames work? I was thinking I could identify the path of the MC with the frame labels, but that doesn't seem to work. like: _root.RMChanger.(frame label).buttonOnFrame = function
I have to move a text box in and out over the MC backgrounds on the main stage... which is why I was thinking to do it this way? I've been switching back and forth bwtween AS2.0 and 3.0
okay so what i cant figure out is...(still earning as3)i have these 2 buttons that are nested inside of movie clip........i havent added any code to em yet or nothing....ALL I LITERALLY did was, i have MC-a and went inside it, created 2 button symbols, and tested movie just to see how it'd look but when i rolled over the buttons they didnt work. they dont have roll over/out/press/hit states at all...it acts like its a regular graphic.i took the same buttons, copy/cut/paste on the main stage and work just fine.

I have a movie with a draggable movieclip. It works, when I preview the movie, and save it as an swf file itself. But when I load it through another .swf file for some reason the movie clip isn't draggable. Here's the code that I'm using now.

I have a MovieClip with two buttons inside of it (bottom portion) When I mouse over the MovieClip - it rises up, to revewl the buttons. My problem is, when I mouse over the buttons, the movie clip drops back down. The buttons don't have any actions upplied to them... It acts as though buttons were standing between the cursor and the movie clip... The idea is to hower over the movie clip > reveal the buttons > either move mouse away or click on one of the buttons. However, the movie clip closes when I touch either one of the buttons. Below is the code and thnks a bunch ahead of time:

I have 4 buttons which i have to make them draggable. The problem is that i have 3 conditions
condition #1. Only 1 button/mclip is draggable in its axis [done].
condition #2 .The 4 button/mclip must be dragabble at the same time, that is, when i drag one, the others should drag at the same time in their own axis.

I have a MovieClip that has startDrag(). Inside the MC I have buttons, but when I click the buttons it wants to drag. How do I make the buttons clickable?

I want a static movie clip turns draggable only when I set on a radio button.
I have a draggable movieclip, mc_PI on stage in which I have another movieclip, mc_PIcontainer into which I load an image.I then place a few buttons, btn_Ant1, btn_Ant2, etc. inside mc_PI.mc_PI drags just fine within the bounds I specify, but I cannot click on any of the buttons that are located inside mc_PI.I need the buttons to be inside mc_PI, because I need them to drag along with the image located in mc_PI.mcPIcontainer.[code]
View 11 RepliesBasically I have button contained in a movie clip (scroller), I want to be able to drag the button up and down and get this to move some dynamic text. If you want to have a look at the fla: [URL].
Code:
on(press){
_root.nFlag = true
}on(release){
_root.nFlag = false
}
And this code for the mc:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(_root.nFlag){
if(_root._ymouse <= 400 && _root._ymouse >= 0){
this._y = _root._ymouse
}}}
My problem is that this only moves the button up and down, and doesn't move the dynamic text. Plus when the mc is named scroller it seems to conflict with code and moving the button doesn't work.
I know this is a bit common now, but I can't seem to find a way to make this work as I need it to.I've got a movie clip that I need to allow dragging on.The movie clip is the background to a website. It is very long in dimensions (lets say 5,000px by 384px).Anyway, the movie clip will align at 0,0 and then should be able to be scrolled horizontally until the end of the graphic reaches the end of the stage.My document size is 1024 x 384.I'd like to be able to make the movie scroll and ease on drag.
View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if there is a way to duplicate a mc so that when you drag & drop a ball, for example, there can be 50 balls stacked underneath, each with its own capabilities to be dragged individually? Obviously the goal is to be able to do this without applying the start/stop drag action to each ball.
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a draggable movie clip (an arrow symbol) that drags along a rectangular track. Works fine but my issue is when the arrow's y axis is at a certain position, it needs to remove a movie clip instance and also run a trace statement. Right now, it's not doing that (if I change the == in the if statement to += it works but then it just works as soon as you mouse down on the arrow) and I'm wondering where I'm goofing up. Here's my code:

I am building a click through presentation that has some small text in it. To maintain the design and allow for readability, I have added a zoom feature.Here is the structure of the movie,Stage - contains pages movie clip and forward/reverse click buttons for changing pagesThere is a button at the _root level that uses a tweener to scale the pages_mc up to 170%. When this is clicked, it allows the pages to be dragged around the screen so you can look at different sections. When you click the button again, it returns the pages back to their original size stops drag.My problem is, on the pages, there are buttons with links to external sites. Once startDrag has been invoked, I cannot touch the buttons inside the movie clip. Is there a way to make these buttons work?
Code below
magUp_btn.onRelease = function() { this._visible = false; TweenLite.to(pages_mc, .25, {_x:-250, _y:-193, _xscale:170, _yscale:170}); TweenLite.to(magUp_mc, .75, {_alpha:0});

i just made a draggable window for my website, its contained within a movie clip(profile_mc) and with in that there is a button which has these actions applied to it :
[code]...
now it all works good, but its reall jerky and just stops even if you dont release.
I have created a multi-scene flash document. One of my buttons on the stage loads a movie clip from my library and has the following script:
on (press) {
this.attachMovie("help", "window", 1);
window._x = -300;
window._y = 200;
}
Works great. Then inside this movie clip, I have an invisible button with the following script:
on (press) {
startDrag(window);
}
on (release) {
stopDrag();
}
This allows the movie clip that popped up to be draggable. This also works perfectly.
My problem is, the button will only attach the movie clip on the first scene. I currently have it loading in level 1. Does anyone know how I can work around this?
Unfortunatly im having to extend to more draggable objects. So they will be within another movie clip so i can have them scrolling. After making the scroll, the draggable objects dont register on the droptarget as they are within another movie clip. Below is i think the part of the code that needs to be changed so the draggable objects know where to find the drop target.

I'm having problems with the flash buttons on the flash website i made for a client. or some reason the buttons in the top and bottom menu work on some people's computers but on some they don't. I don't know what to do, i had this code for all the buttons,
on (release) {
getURL("http://legaldepartment.ca/","_self");
}
and they worked on my computer but on others the buttons didn't work at all so i added this code to each button also
on(press) {
_root.getURL("http://legaldepartment.ca/","self");
}
and they still work on my computer and some other people's computers but still some they don't work on some people's computers.

View 8 RepliesI am creating a navigation bar in Flash (which will then be used in Dreamweaver). When you mouse over each topic in menu (ex. Products), i want it play a movie clip (so it shoots out a sub-menu underneath). so far so good, but the only thing is, the sub-menu won't stay open in order for me to click on buttons in it. For each button, I assigned it the Behavior to go to a url. Also, I tested the buttons within the mc and they don't seem to direct me to url. do you think maybe it's because it's nested within the movie clip?? Is there an easier way to go about this?

I have two main clips with clickable clicks within each. I am using swapDepths on the two main clips in a tab navagation fashion. The problem is that if I click on the space between the nested clips in the top clip it actually is hitting the buttons(movieclips) on the other clip under it. Any suggestions?
