ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons Inside MovieClip For Interaction
Jun 29, 2006
I have a movieclip and some sort of buttons inside of it for interaction. The Movieclip is in the _root and all other stuff inside of it. Now problem is: Whenever I attach an action to he MC like:
Code:
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.mc_stage.onPress = function() {
startDrag(_root.mc_stage,false);
}
_root.mc_stage.onRelease = function() {
stopDrag();
}}
And run the swf, I cannot interact with the buttons. I cant click them. When there is no action applied to MC on the instance or the timeline the buttons work perfect. How can I make both work ? Drag the Movieclip with mouse and also make buttons work.

I'm creating a menu bar that is a movieclip and inside the movieclip consists of the buttons.Now the menu bar is twice as WIDE as what is visible on the stage.The only part you can see is the text 'menu' on a bar.Then when the mouse hits the bar, it flies across the screen to the otherside of the bar where the menu buttons are.Now the menu bar does its animation over 20 frames - the last frame being the frame where the menu buttons are now visible.
On the last frame i have the 'stop;' code
On the first frame I have this code:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){

On my stage I have two buttons that open a movieclip that has more buttons in it.
If button 1 was used to open the movieclip, then the internal buttons each load up text. If button 2 was used, the buttons load up images.
Problem is, if I click on button 1, (to go back to loading text) the last image remains, as I'm not sure how to code removeChild to act if the parent button has been pressed.
Currently, I successfully use removeChild to remove each image as image buttons are clicked within the movieclip. But I'm not sure how to remove the last one?

I'm making a flash CS4 presentation and I just made a navbar movieclip (grey rectangle) and put 6 buttons on each layer inside of it. I put this movieclip (navbar) on the main movie timeline in a layer. I keep getting this error (1120 access of undefined property) and the buttons simply don't respond to the main timeline. It used to work fine when the buttons were on the main timeline. Should I make a parent child reference ?
For example, this code for the pause button won't work:
pause_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, stopButtonClick);
function stopButtonClick (e:MouseEvent):void {
this.stop();
}

I've been using this site for a while as I'm taking flash lessons in my college and right now I am building a portfolio website and am in need of help, so I've decided to come to you for some light. My problem is in the portfolio I'm creating in AS2 I have the photo and video galleries in form of a click'n'drag movie clip that slides sideways. So far, so good. However, when I add buttons to my mc (and that includes the ones in all my video players as well), they don't work at all. I think it has something to do with the function I'm using. Is there any solution for allowing buttons to be clickable? This is the code I'm using directly in the mc:

I am currently creating animated buttons that have a movie clip inside them (including tweens). I created a button and copied this six times. I would like to change the colour of each individual button, but when I do this it changes the colours of all the buttons. How can I do this so it changes the individual the colour of a single 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]

This is my first time coding a website using ActionScript. So far everything has went very well, I designed the website in Photoshop, and imported to Flash CS5. Then I cleaned everything up, and started adding navigation to the various pages using buttons.The website is constructed in a very simple manner, there are five main pages and they are connected by buttons on a static navigation bar (the first page, home, doesn't have a corresponding button). Then there are nine sub pages, that each contain information on a character of the game, and are connected to corresponding buttons in the 'Character' layer/MovieClip. My four menu buttons (Story, The World, Characters, Extras) all navigate correctly without problems.
The problem arises because inside my Characters page (a movie clip) are nine buttons, each linking to a different page. These buttons should bring the timeline to the frame specified, but when the buttons are clicked nothing happens. I've spent hours searching for a solution to this, but with no avail, and I have a feeling the answer is prettysimple.gotoAndStop("gowang", "Scene 1");line in the Gowang character button function with:MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("gowang");

My buttons work fine in the main time line, but I need to place them in frame 1 of a mc_pages, I get an error about it saying "the statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler". And I just can't figure out how to do that to save my life. If pc's were cheap their would be a pile of them outside on the curb. I'm thinking I need to split up this action and place some on frame 1 of the main time line and keep some for for my button on frame 1 of pages, but what part? how?
My button loads a new swf in the mc placeholder.
btn01.onRelease = function () {
// let's first unload the current movie, to refresh the cache
(placeholder.unloadMovie());
// SETUP THE MAIN VIDEO PLAYER
autoPlay = "true"; //
autoLoop = "false"; //

As I was creating a cheap Flyout Menu I ended up being unable to assing a "global" variable to different buttons.I have a "main button bar" with 5 different buttons wich as you RollOver one brings up another bar with multiple buttons attach to it.
Now these "2nd level" buttons are set in a Movie Clip as this one starts invisible and I don't want people to see the hand cursor over them. I know how to make this happen to each button individually but since I have 8 "2nd level" btns I don't want my ActionScript to be 100 lines long So to put this easier to read and write, to minimize the chances of making mistake I am asking you this: Is there a way to assign a single variable to refer to these 8 different "2nd level" buttons?

I'm fairly new to actionscript and could use some help. I'm using Flash CS3, AS 1/2.I have made a musicplayer that is inside a movieclip, but when i pull the movieclip onto the stage the buttons inside the movieclip stop working.Inside the Movieclip:I have the music start on frame 1 and then gotoAndPlay at frame 3.Frame 3 has a stop();, a button that stops the music and gotoAndPlay "play".Frame 2 has a stop();, a button that plays the music and gotoAndPlay "stop".it all works fine on its own, but as soon as i stick it on the stage it stops working.Labels have been set up fine, it works when i use 'Test Scene'. I've hardcoded all the buttons to work on the timeline frames and not on the buttons.[code]

How do you get buttons to work correctly inside the Movieclip? When i click on my buttons they show what is supposed to be shown for a split second then goes to the nested frame 1. my website is: [URL] If you go to the Interest button, you'll see what i mean. the clip loads up fine but when u click on the Adobe cd it won't work correctly. The images flash on screen then disappear.

im making my portfolio in flash. And the designing goes oke etc, but now im at the programming part, and thats not what im good at.[URL] If you mouse your cursor over the most right (black) button you see "contact" fading in, thats oke, and when you click on it a big orange shape slides in, some text is needed to put in here. But! When you move the mouse of the button the orange shape slides back.
So my question is, how can I make the orange shape stay while the mouse is of the button? And when the mouse moves out of the contact button and over another it should fade in that name to, (like it does now).

I've been working on a new issue while giving a break on cracking the other one.I have a movie clip acting as a button with rollover/rollout animation- we'll call it menu_mc for simple reference.I'm basically creating a rollover submenu. I've set it up a few different ways but the most user friendly has been hiding the submenu_mc (which has 4 linked buttons to root frame inside) by doing:_root.sub5_mc._visible = false;then inside the menu_mc with the rollover I have the submenu trigger set to show: _root.sub5_mc._visible = true;The links are working fine but the problem I am running into, is that the rollover state, once over the submenu_mc, does the rollout function and leaves the submenu_mc hanging there by itself- still functioning perfectly.You can go back over the menu_mc and it will play out the rollover again.On the other simple animated buttons (which do not have submenus) I have coded:
on(rollOver) {
_root.sub5_mc._visible = false;
}

In my main .swf I have labels on the timeline, navs for those btns are on the first frame of the AS layer and each button sends the playhead to a different frame. On one frame called fr1 there is an mc called mc_1 that appears on stage when the playhead stops there. Inside mc_1 are a set of navigation buttons that need to call external .swfs.
Do I add event listeners on the last frame of mc_1 for each button? how do I call the loaders for the swfs on the buttons since the swfs will load on the main timeline NOT the mc_1 timeline?
So label on main timeline called fr1 will load external1 swf , on fr10 external 2.swf will load and so on.
