ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons To Switch Between Clips?

Jun 27, 2009

I am new to this forum. Not an experienced Flash user. I need to include a swf file on my client's web page. The swf file includes 4 movie clips appearing one by one. Each clip links to their designated page. I want to have small buttons to let viewers to click and switch to the clip they want. When click, the still shot (may be the last frame) of the clip appears.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using A Switch Statement And Put All Movie Clips And Their Corresponding Checkboxes In Arrays

Sep 28, 2003

3 groups of checkboxes that control visibility. Each group of checkboxes would be controlled by a radio button. That is, when radio 1 is true, the corresponding groups of checkboxes is enabled and the user can click away, making the corresponding movie clips become visible or invisible. The other two groups of checkboxes would be disabled. Then, when radio 2 is true, IT'S group of checkboxes would become enabled, and the others disabled, etc. So I thought I would try using a switch statement and put all movie clips and their corresponding checkboxes in arrays

[Code]...

But obviously it doesn't work. This is my first time working with a switch statement in Flash. Am I missing something obvious or is it a matter of a quoation mark missing or what? I'm not totally sure what belongs in the case () itself.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Buttons To Switch To Different Scenes?

Dec 8, 2009

I am working in CS4 and am trying to use AS3.0 to make buttons that go to different scenes. I am not using "Scene 2" in my AS; instead, I am labeling frame 1 of Scene 2 and am using that frame label in my coding.
 
Unfortunately I cannot get it to work properly. I am about 8 hours into trying to fix it and cannot seem to get it resolved.
 
I have attached the .fla file for your reference. I have also pasted my AS coding below in case it is a simple thing (probably not!). The movie needs to stop at a certain frame so the buttons are available for the users. 
 
stop();
btn2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showimage);
function showimage(event:MouseEvent):void {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Automatically (fade In And Out) As Well As Being Able To Be Prompted To Switch Via Buttons?

Jul 12, 2010

I'm working on a slide show which I would like work automatically (fade in and out) as well as being able to be prompted to switch via buttons... I know this is a super simple thing, but I cannot get all the buttons to work. The buttons are copies of the same instance with different instance names and are located at the 3 respective frames in timeline where the pieces of slideshow should fade in/out ( I hope this makes sense) I get the first set of buttons to work:

import flash.events.MouseEvent;
controls.bttn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1);
function clickSection1 (evtObj:MouseEvent) {
// trace shows what's happening in the output window

[code].....

but when I add more buttons that are located later on in a timeline, I get the following error:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at INDEX_TEST_r3_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create Buttons Triggering Switch MC In Loaded Swf

Oct 17, 2011

I'm currently working on a project which has a swf (zoom) which zoom/pan a loaded swf of a map (carte_web.swf). Everything went well until I got more requests.  There is now two maps, same background, one with images and one with only a road. I'm trying to add code to two buttons on a toolbar generated by the zoom.swf, to switch between the two maps, without loosing it's zoom/pan  My maps are both object-oriented Flash programming. I have spent 27 hours, trying to find a way and I'm definately at my wits' end!
 
I got a suggestion " in loading both your swfs into one sprite separately. Then switching between the swfs by removing and adding them to their parent sprite. The parent sprite is what you'll be zooming. "  I tried everything!!!

ActionScript 3.0 :: 50 Different Buttons With 50 Different Movie Clips?

Mar 5, 2009

I'm creating a timeline of events with about 50 different points to click on. When each event is clicked on, a movie clip needs to appear (or tween onto) the screen. Then, when another event is clicked on, the previous content needs to go away so that the new content can appear.

A prefect example of what I'm talking about can be seen here:

[URL]

I've created a custom class of "TimePoint" that has a public property of date, so that I can assign a date to each individual instance of my TimePoint class.

In my fla, he timeline itself is a movie clip that needs to scroll back and forth as the mouse is moved. It contains the nested instances of my TimePoint class. I already have the scrolling movement taken care of, and I also have a tooltip date appearing over each point in time. Now I just need to figure out how to manage 50 different movie clips, each with and without graphics, bitmaps, etc.

I'm just wondering if there is any way to do this without having to create 50 different event listeners and 50 different classes just so that I can add/remove children. I'm thinking I need to use an array, but I don't know how I would implement it. I'm also not very familiar with XML.

My progress so far can bee seen here:

Using Movie Clips As Buttons To Navigate?

Jul 13, 2009

For my online gallery, I'm using movie clips as buttons to navigate. I was having the movie clip play when you scrolled over it and off of it. Now i have it so when you click on it, it stops at the mid-way point. What on is to get it to go back to its original state when I click on something else. So basically I'm looking for a way to go back to frame 1 when a different movie clip/button is clicked on. I want it to revert back to what it was in an inactive state when I click on a different part, but I don't know how to do that

Professional :: Buttons And Movie Clips (on And Off)

Jul 15, 2011

I'm working on my own personal website for my graphic design work and I'm using flash for the intro movie, which you can either skip or after an elapsed time, sends you directly to the home page. On that intro movie (which ill call animatedface_mc) i've put two other movie clips with the eyes blinking (left and right). The eyes would be constantly blinking, as this page is open. That one is working. Off to the side are buttons of names of famous celebrities and once clicked it adds movie clips to the main animatedface_mc. For example if i clicked on the monroe_mc, it adds that famous Marilyn Monroe mole (using either mask or opacity, depending on the facial feature) on the animatedface_mc. If I clicked on tyson_mc, it adds his face tattoo. I've used the following code for this:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Concerning Buttons Within Movie Clips?

Jan 14, 2004

Being rather "green" with actionscripting, I am having difficulties using a sliding menu (very similar to the "infinite menu" tutorial here on kirupa) in conjuction with some actionscripting to interact with some external movies outside the main movie I am working with. What I want to do is to use each button within the menu to reference a flash movie outside the menu bar (which is a movie clip). Before I sound even more vague let me show you the code first....

aboards.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("aboard.swf", "target");
};

So here I have a button instance (aboards) of one of the 10 buttons in the menu. I want to then reference a movie clip called "target" in the main scene of my movie to then load and display the movie aboard.swf at this reference point.

This code works well with static buttons on the main scene, but here each of the 10 buttons are located within the movie clip that makes the sliding menu work. The instance "aboards" of course works if I assign the instance to the movie clip, but then that of course means that ALL 10 buttons then will be assigned "aboards". What code change can I make to fix this issue so that each of the 10 buttons (within the movie clip) carry their own instance that can be referenced from the main scene?

Buttons In Movie Clips Arrays, SwapDepths?

Jan 28, 2010

I am a Flash newbie and I've probably bitten off more than I can chew with this one...it sounded so easy!
Okay, so here's what I want to do: There are 5 people layered across the screen. When you rollover the person, they change color and come to the foreground (over the other pictures). On rollout, they go back to the background and change back in color. On click, they go to a new screen with just their picture and some information.

I first started setting this up and did each person as a button. Then I realized that in doing that, the button would not come to the foreground on rollover if it was below other buttons in the layers. So I put all of the buttons in movie clips and applied AS to the buttons (inside the movie clips, with the buttons on the main scene) and the AS2 looks like this:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons Removing Clips From Stage

Jan 15, 2010

Below is my code that works GREAT for using buttons to run functions that either create shapes or load a *.jpg image (I have attached image if you want to run the code and need the image)Problem: When I click on button 1 and it creates and drops my "square" as new movieclip named "stl" and then I go click on button 2 - it places the new shape onto of the first shape create from button 1.

I have tried removechild, removechildat, using numchildren-1, and I thought about creating an if else statement to remove previously placed movie clips from the stage before it runs and places a new instance on the stage but I can't get it to work.
