ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating A Custom Horizontal Scrollbar ?
Jul 19, 2011
I would like to know how can I make a horizontal scroll bar in AS2?I have make a vertical one already and using the below script, what should I change then let the scrollbar become left to right?
var scrollUpper:Number = 9;
var scrollLower:Number = 158;
var textLower:Number = 0[code].....
URL...I really like the style and I think it's Flash but not sure.How do they get the whole animation to fit the whole screen without a users horizontal scrollbar coming in? Is this something you can set in Dreamweaver when you upload it?
With scrollPane, is it possible to change the position of the horizontal scrollbar? I saw an old thread that suggested using the following for moving the vertical scrollbar:scroller.verticalScrollBar.x=-20;So I tried changing it to "scroller.horizontalScrollBar.y=-20;" but that had no effect.
I've got a List component set up but some of the text exceeds the space available and so I'm trying to add a horizontal scrollbar as well as the vertical one.In the component inspector I've set the horizontal to "on" and given it a width of 200 (my component has a width of 150).However, it cannot be scrolled and I get this error message: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at AWorkingFile1_fla:: Main Timeline/baseData()Is it actually possible to get the scroll bar to work?
I've got an Horizontal List. It contains 6 XML Nodes at the moment. But what I'd like to do is remove the scrollbar so that an button can function to scroll through the nodes instead.
I'm coding a horizontal scrollbar that will contain several movieclips. The scrollbar has a few ways to scroll through it, a traditional scrollbar (scrubber & track), a next and a previous button that will scroll from clip to clip, and finally clicking on the scrollbar track to go to that point. However the bar doesn't full scroll back to it's original start point and at the opposite end it scrolls a little too much past the end of the clip. The same with the next and previous buttons you click the previous button it comes up just short of the original start point and the next button goes just a little further then it should. I cant seem to figure out whats wrong with it. I realized this is kind of a hard problem to explain so I attached an fla file (CS3 & CS4).
I've tried to use the "Simple Custom Scrollbar" tutorial to create a horizontal scrollbar instead of the vertical. I've changed the defenitions like this:
scrolling = function () { var scrollWidth:Number = scrollTrack._Width; var contentWidth:Number = contentMain._Width;
[Code]....
I put the "Width" instead of the "height", and "x" instead of "y". What I've got is when I push on the "scrollFace" button it slides but disappears immidietly, and the the image (which is "movieclip" as well) beneath the masked area freezes.
* In addition - I have to make this scrollbar move from right to left - Is there any additional defenitions I must concern?
I am using a MoveIt function to show a horizontal scrollbar in State 1 and then another mc in State 2. The scrollbar is working perfectly when the flash animation loads but after I switch to State 2 and back to State 1 the scrollbar no longer functions.I would like to make it so that the scrollbar stays in its last position and is always working without reloading.[code]
I'm working on a schoolproject and I have a flashapplication that I want on my site. In this image you see a horizontal scrollbar and a vertical scrollbar. In the middle are the photographs, those you'll click in the horizontal scrollbar and they will enlarge (with some text). That's the red arrow. The yellow arrow is the thing I wanted too. When you click a photograph in the horizontal bar en you hold em, you can drag that photograph in the vertical bar and drop it there.
I have an application control bar at the bottom of my Flex application (with attributes width="100%", dock="false", left="0", bottom="0", height="50"). It contains a lot of elements (like buttons and labels). The width of the SWF is the width of the browser.When the user makes the width of the browser window smaller, after a certain point, thecomponents on the application control bar gets "squished": they are forced on top of each other. And so, it becomes confusing and ugly. To ensure that that doesn't happen, I've set the minWidth attribute to a value so that it'll always display the components without them overlapping each other.
But then, a horizontal scrollbar appears and hides the bottom half of the application control bar.I've googled and I found this article: flex verticalscrollpolicy bug (referenced by this SO question: Flex: Prevent scrollbar from covering content when automatically displayed).But that seems to apply only to a fixed size component. My component's width is a percentage. how to have the horizontal scrollbar appear and have it not cover up the application control bar?
I have a canvas lets say the size of it on the screen is 500x500. But I want the actual canvas size to be 1000x500 making the other half scrollable. How can I make a blank canvas with that specification?
I read some of the other posts concerning scrollbars but they didn�t solve my problem. I created a simple horizontal scrollbar but it doesn�t appear on my screen at all. Instead I keep receiving the following error message (I translated it from German so it might not be 100% correct):
1046: Type has not been found or there was no Compiling time constant: ScrollEvent.
The error lies with "public function scrollHandler(event:ScrollEvent): void { ".
I've made the kirupa simple scrollbar [URL] to scroll horizontal. This works just perfect but it is not smooth. My question to you is - how to make it smooth? I've got 4 MC's with the instance names content, mask, scroll_area and scroller.
My AS looks like this: onClipEvent (load) { _root.content_width = content._width; _root.scroller_area_width = scroll_area._width; scroller._width = _root.scroller_area_width/(content._width/scroll_area._width); _root.scroller_width = scroller._width; [Code] .....
I am using an Apple PowerBook g4, Flash CS4, ActionScript 3 and I am trying to develop and design my own site and truth be told I have no idea what I am doing nor how I will put all the pieces together. But at the moment I am trying to make a horizontal scrollbar using the Object-Oriented Scrollbar: Part 1 tutorial. Basically all I have done is used x instead of y within the actionscript code. However, the only error I am getting is with the import caurina.transitions.Tweener*; code. What comes up in the compiler error report is:
Location) Symbol 'scrollbox' , Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 1. Discription0 1086: Syntax error: expecting semicolon before mult. Source) import caurina.transitions.Tweener*;
The caurina file was downloaded the from Tweener Documentation and Language Reference site [URL] and I used the tweener_1_33_74_as3.zip Stable version 1.33.74, Actionscript 3 (Flash 9+) Featured Jun 2009 34.4 KB file. After placing the unzipped caurina folder into my project folder and that not working I have placed in Applications/Adobe Flash CS4/en/First Run/Classes as I read within the forum post "Re: Object-Oriented Scrollbar Part 1" posted by AKA//TRUTH on Wed Jan 20, 2010 12:30 pm.

I've been struggling with a horizontal scroll bar controlling vertical content movement. Can anyone help me? I'm using AS2 in CS3 and I have tried the search function....in vail..
I�m trying to get my horizontal scrollbar gallery images to link to different url�s, but having some trouble getting more than one url to open, they all link to the same site.
I tryed to create a movieclip that simulates the windows' windows, lets say it... this is my swf: [url]....at first look, it seems to work right. Its draggable and scalable just like a windows os frame. But so far so good, try to move the horizontal scrollbar thumb till it reaches its limit. Then scale the movieclip.
I am not sure if it possible or what would be the best way to archive the following in Adobe Flex 4 (I am also fine with Flex 3). I need some kind of a tree view, but the items should be placed like a tree from top to down and not like it is done in the treeview implementation of the Flex framework. To make it more clear here an simple "graphic":
I want to create a Custom ComboBox in which the DropDown contains the Horizontal Line or you can say HRule immediate after the First Item. here I am providing you the image For that you can see I have used paint to draw the HRule I want component similar like that.
I have a dynamic textfield that loads an xml file and I'm looking for a good tutorial on how to create a custom scrollbar component to scroll the textfield with easing.
I'm using this custom scrollbar script I got somewhere. Works OK on page that needs it but when going to the other pages I get a "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at the_fla::MainTimeline/stopScroll()"
Code: /* script to control scroll text */ var bounds:Rectangle = new Rectangle(scrollMc.x, scrollMc.y, 0, 200);
I made a custom scrollbar for a textfield that works like a charm... but in it's "alpha-state", it was only showing where the text was scrolled to (and how long the text is, by it's own height)- you couldn't actually click the scrollbar and drag it. So I added a little AS to the actual scrolling block MC that *should* work... and kind of does- but not like I think it logically should..?
My problem is with scrolling vertical content with a custom scrollbar, where the dynamic content often starts at a y value ABOVE the viewer (or mask). I can get the scrollbar to reflect the correct % of available content on the scrolltrack, but for the life of me am stuck allowing scrolling for the full height of the content.The attached FLA (v8) shows where I'm stuck and how far I got. It's a much simplified version of the final movie, with static content for now, but demonstrates a case in point. I can't use the built-in scrollbar component/s because the content MC will be dynamically populated with further MCs and the content._y value will change constantly, usually ABOVE the 0 y coord of the movie.
I followed the tutorial [URL] and it is not working for me. It may be that I am attempting to use this nested within another movieclip. When I test it and click on the dragger on the scroll bar all that happens is that the dragger relocates to center of screen... and that's it. No scrolling, or whatever. To give more info, I am creating an ebrochure, where each frame on the main timeline is a movieclip "page" and in each "page" are several other movieclips. I am trying to use the scroller on "page" 11 (basically frame 11 on main timeline) and in that "page" are several movieclips on their own layers that build the page, including the layer that has the movieclip of the scroller content as per the tut. But I can't seem to make it work. Is this scroller functionable on the main timeline only?
I'm trying to develop a card game with Flex, and I was wondering if there's a way to create an horizontal list (the cards that I have in my hand) having the elements overlapped, like you can see in this example made with openflux: [URL]. The thing that's missing here is the possibility to swap the cards with drag and drop. What I could do to get a similar effect with an horizontal list based component?
