ActionScript 2.0 :: Complex Buttons And Timeline Control?
Sep 1, 2006
I'm dealing with this line of action-sript (which I'm new to) for a complex rollover:
--------------
//stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
prevFrame();
[code]....
In the last line, I want the function to go to a frame in the timeline, not to an outside URL. Shouldn't I just be able to change it to this? (85 is the frame number)
this.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndPlay(85);
}
It's not working?

I have an swf file, MyRoundButtons, which is a set of radio buttons I built (not components). It works fine, but if I import it into a parent it won't work anymore. I have to write a script to load it into a movieclip, (which I hate, because I'll have a several different swfs to assemble on my final stage. I really want to see them all on the stage together, not just at runtime.)
Even when I load it into a clip and the buttons work, however, it doesn't seem to have a separate timeline when double-clicked ,and:I can't make the imported buttons control the timeline of the parent.I defined a test function:
Code: Select allfunction goToNirvana() {gotoAndPlay("nirvana")};
Frame "nirvana," in th parent, has a Trace instruction in it.
goToNirvana works on its own in the parent. [code].....
Whether I define that function in the child, the parent, or both, the instruction won't work. Now, I'd prefer not to do the loadMovie thing at all if I can avoid it, I'd rather have fully rendered button clips onstage at authoring for me to arrange and move about, with fully independent timelines right there. But you see what I'm trying to do. I just can't get it done.

How I can get the complex button, when pressed to goto a certain frame of the main timeline and not the complex button timeline. Right now I have it set when press and release gotoandplay(2)... but it plays the button timeline and not the main timeline:
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
prevFrame();
}}
this.onRollOver = function(){
rewind = false;
play();
}this.onRollOut = function(){
rewind = true;

I would like an animation to play (of the words being scribbled out) and when you mouseout, it goes back to normal. On page click, I wanted the link to change colour so that you would know which page you were on.I have created a frame by frame animation of the words being scribbled out, but I don't know what to do with the animation!How do I insert it into my html? Do I need to use actionscript in flash?

I'm writing code for a website (for the first time) using Flash CS4 AS3 and am hoping someone out there can answer a simple question for me. I have multiple buttons on the stage that point to different areas of the timeline. All of the simple buttons work fine.he problem that I'm having is with the complex buttons (that have a movie clip in them) only work one time and then die. They still animate, but don't function after the first use...Why?! I've googled for days and am baffled to my wits end.I'm talking about and be able to point me in some direction. I've tried several different things from different sites, so the code is a little funny right now. The buttons that don't work are 'mybutton, pic1, and entrypic1.' Everything is labeled correctly in the properties manager and the code is below:
stop();
function setupEvents() {
pic1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler1);
[code]......

I've made a pretty complex button thats actually a drop down menu. So when you mouse over the button, it opens the drop down menu, but the actual button is also clickable. The problem comes in when I copy the button like 4 times. I can make the main button go to different links, but everything inside the button,i.e. the drop down links, changes across all copies whenever I modify one. How do I go about making each button a different separate button so that I can modify each one individually?

I have made a complex button with the help of warhero's tutorial. The onRelease event of this script opens a URL when clicked. What I need is to have the onRelease event of this script load an external movie into a container mc based on Voetsjoeba's Transitions tute.I thought I'd try combining the if/else statement from Voetsjoeba into the complex button script, but this does not work. Can someone tell me how to combine these scripts?
Code:
stop();

How do you code simple buttons and complex buttons that show they are on or have been activated? I want my interface to be able to tell my users that they are in a specific area by highlighting the button on my menus. (Just like the navigation menu for [URL]).

I need to do a little swf for a webpage that show a map the idea was to create on mouseover a Roll In and with a mouseout a Roll Out.
so i downloaded the template from kirupa, Complex Button RollOver/RollOut Effect
i personalized to my needs and it works fine
at the end of the roll in the zoom in should stop and i have three buttons who send me to other three sites
when i put the button on the stage this will not work.. probably is the code of the complexbutton who blocks the other buttonfunction....
im getting mad trying some possibilitys but nothing will work
an example of who i need to do the swf is on the site [URL]
i post the code of the complexbutton
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){

Where can I find ready-made buttons that will control an FLV and a timeline together? I have a swf with an FLV and I animate images and phrases on a movieClip timeline timed to what they say in the flv. I set up cuepoints that trigger the animations, so when users scrub, pause, etc. the timeline eventually catches up with the FLV, but it would be a lot nicer if the pause, scrub, etc. would do the same to the timeline and there was no lag time.

in AS2 how would i use the down arrow key to make the timeline play? at the moment i have this and i presume i need to put something after that to make it play. [code]but i presume this is totaly wrong because the "stop();" doesnt stop the clip when the "if (Key.isDown(40))" bit is after it.

I have an application with a collection of sounds in the timeline. One sound file is recorded at a slightly lower volume than the others. I know I could change this in Audacity but I'm wondering whether I could attach a line of actionscript to its button to raise its volume slightly.I know its possible to do this when playing sounds with actionscript directly from the library, but that would be too big a departure from the development style used.

I am creating a very simple presentation in CS3, which will be projected on-screen and will have a live speaker. I would like to be able to pause the SWF at various locations along the timeline so that the speaker my discuss issues on the screen, and then presume playing it. Since don't want this control visible (such as with a button) to the audience, I would like the control either with the press of a key, such as the arrow right key, or with a remote controller. How would I encode this both with the press of a key or with a remote controller?

in the old version of flash, there was an option in the property inspector where one could have assigned ie. 8 seconds to a keyframe (esp. text) so one could read the let's say 3 sentences before the next set of sentences came on the stage. i swear there was an option for this in flash 8. can anyone tell me how to control the timing in flashcs4 in between frames? i know how to make the very last frame stop( ); in actionscript 3.

What was simple is now documented by 15 pages of chicken scratchesI have searched through the docs and am just lostWhat I want to do was simple enough in AS2: onClipEvent (EnterFrame)_root.gotoAndPlay("2");But can't be done now. It doesn't work as a frame action either without the onClipEvent. All I want to do is go from the last frame of the timeline to frame 2 and skip the preloader. How the heck do I do that in AS3? I've searched online and cannot find the method, and perhaps search terms don't work. Anything I can find applies to AS2.

I am trying to use a button to control a timelineie if you click once you gotoAndPlay frame 2, the next time you click the same button you will gotoAndPlay frame 22, then gotoAndPlay 44 etc.I have spent the last couple of days trawling forums and a variable seems to be the answer, but I am not sure if this is correct.

I am building a somewhat sophisticated slide menu. I have input a wait(); command using setInterval in the first frame of my actions panel. My wait() function works perfectly.I have also set a few variables to start out being false. Once a particular button is clicked, it sets the variable to true and sends the playhead to a particular spot within the movie. Actionscript then performs a command to that says if that variable has been set to "true" gotoAndPlay "this", otherwise gotoAndPlay "this-instead".
The problem I am having is that when I click on one of the buttons, it is somehow setting all the variables to true and sending the playhead to places I don't want it to go.Here is the code I have placed in my first frame:
button1 == false; button2 == false; button3 == false; button4 == false;
//Make movie wait for ten second interval before resuming playfunction wait() {stop();var myInterval = setInterval(function () {play();clearInterval(myInterval);}, 10*1000); // stop for 10 seconds}[code]....
For some reason, regardless of which button is actually pressed, (cube2, cube3, or cube4, all of the variables are set to "true" and the playhead goes to whichever frame it wants to at that point.
