ActionScript 2.0 :: Disable Button Depending On AttachMovie Status?
Mar 30, 2006
how to use attachMovie to load a movieclip in to my main stage, drag it around and include a close button. I then added a variable (x) that would control which clip would on top depending on which was clicked last.
The question bit... I've managed to do this (...sort of), but was wondering if anyone could hint me with the code to disable the button if the clip is loaded, and enable it as soon as the clip has been closed so that it may be opened once again?
I'm using this to load the clip where x is the variable;
Code:
on (release) {
attachMovie("new", "newname1", x);
newname1._x=200;
[Code]....

I'm loading in 5 jpegs from an external file using "loadMovie" and i have 5 corresponding buttons (1-5) to load them with.
I want to change the jpeg the button loads in depending whether a separate navigation button has been pressed -
i.e.
navigation buttons:
-motorbike pics
-car pics
-lorry pics
If a user clicked on "car pics" then the loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "car1.jpg", "car2.jpg" and so on...
similarly if the user clicked on "lorry pics", the same loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "lorry1.jpg" and "lorry2.jpg"

I created a button using the following code,
Code:
on(release) {
attachMovie ("my_btn", "my_btn", _root.getNextHighestDepth(),{_x:34, _y:158});
}
Now I am trying to make the button gotoAndStop on a scene on release. I tried this code,
Code:
onEnterFrame
my_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop ("SettingsPanel")
}

I tried the following code and it works great.
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("main.swf", 1);
main.enabled = false;
}
How would I go about resetting the the button's status after another movie is loaded? Do I have to manually code for each movie loaded or is there an easier way using loops perhaps?

im starting to get the hang of 3.0 now.. but i have a little problem loading different swf files related to witch button i click..
everything works just fine. when clicking on a button the movie plays and its listening for the end of each video playing.. but i cant get it to load different swfs depending on witch button is clicked. is it possible to do this using the same loader as i do now?
heres my code:
var compact:String = "axesse_mc.swf";var compactreq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("axesse_mc.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();loader.load(compactreq);

I am like a new-born-newbie when it comes to Action Script 3.0 (or any other version for that matter). I've been trying to learn it by myself for the past week and a half using manuals and other sources but it's not so easy as there are many concepts that take some getting used to (I've never done programming before). So I ask of anyone who is kind enough to give me a hint or point me in the right direction. I am sure this will seem like a very easy and probably stupid question for the well-informed but it has been eluding me for the past 4 days.
I am making a website (I should say it's pretty much finished except for this one detail) it's simple and short. Nothing very fancy. There are 8 buttons in total for the main navigation (4 buttons in English and 4 in Chinese, each language group in their own set of frames)
the button that serves as a link to the Chinese translated version of the site is supposed to go to a particular page, depending on which page the user is in at the moment (example: if it is in the portfolio page in English, when clicking on the Chinese button it should go to the portfolio page in Chinese and so on). Likewise with the English button in the Chinese version pages.[code]...

The first prob I had was when i used the load movie command the swf file was loading in the wrong position, it kept loading down and across the page. I had
PHP Code:
_root.myemp.loadMovie("banner.swf", 0);
I dont know why this is happening but I just fixed this by doing:
_root.myemp._x = 0
_root.myemp._y = 0
The next problem Im having is that I want to change the frame depending on which button was pressed. If button two was pressed I wanted to load "banner.swf" and gotoAndStop("pg2"), If button three is pressed gotoAndStop("pg3")Ive tried some things but cant get this part right such as:
_root.myemp.gotoAndStop("pg2")
"banner.swf".gotoAndPlay
I just dont know the syntax...

I'm working with some XML-supplied data, with a variable number of elements. I'm using a loop to add instances of a symbol for each element via attachMovie. But something is preventing my URL action from getting properly assigned.
When I do this:
ActionScript Code:
itemY = 0;
urls = [];

I have two movieclips. 1.a button, 2.the content.
When i load both using the attachMovie. The content is loaded over the button but, you can still click on the button even thought there is something over it.
The same problem happens when using the loadMovie. Even thought the content is overlapping the button its still possbile to click on it.I also notice that you can also select dynamic text. I know you can use the disable button function but using this i will need to disable every button on stage. Or without the need of unloading the movieclip too

In the library, I have a movie clip - DraggableButton that has OnPress with StartDrag with parameters and OnRelase with StopDrag. I have a slider with this Draggable button and a bar to slide the button on. I also have two movie clips Clip1 and Clip2. In my main movie I have two instances MC1 and MC2 of Clip1 an Clip2. I have an instance of the Slider. I want to set the _alpha property of MC1 and MC2 depending on the location of the button on the slider.
I think I need to save the location (_x) of the button on the slider in a variable in the OnRelease even of DraggableButton and use this variable in the SetProperty method. I need to know in which event and which object's event should I use the SetProperty method. Or if what I am thinking is not correct what do I need to do?

Adobe Flash CS3
publishing as Flash 8, AS 2.0
I have a movieclip named menu (instance name = mainmenu). Inside of that there is a button named btn_about (instance name = about). On the main stage there is an empty movieclip named empty_mc (instance name = mcholder, linkage id = empty). I want a user to press the button which causes a movieclip in the library named tesst (Linkage name = testid) to load into the empty movieclip (mc_holder).
Here is the code on the button:
on (release) {
this._parent.mcholder.attachMovie("testid", "tesst1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
}
It does not work.

Right I only want to play a certain part of my MovieClips Timeline depending on the button pressed.
ActionScript Code:
stop();
CircleLineMC.KingsCross.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, KingsCrossBtn);
function KingsCrossBtn(event:MouseEvent):void {
BigSquare_MC.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
But I want it to play only up to frame 50 and then stop there and then loop instead of playing the whole timeline, does anyone know How to do that.

In my code, when a user clicks on a button, I set the alpha of the button to 50 and set enabled=0. This works to essentially disable and grey out the button. The problem is that even though the button has been disabled, it still sits in the over state until the user moves the cursor off the hit area... Funny, no?
Since you can't tell a button what frame to go to, how do I get it to go back to its up state (without recreating all my buttons as movieclips and doing the whole thing manually)?

I have some code similar to the following:
ActionScript Code:
//
//
var box = new Sprite();
box.graphics.lineStyle(10, 0xFF0000);
[code]...
If you click the box, its alpha is set to 1 rather than .1 because of an errant MOUSE_OUT event.What is the right way to fully disable this button when it is clicked?I'd rather not remove the event listeners because I have a bunch of different MOUSE_OVER functions on many different buttons and keeping track of which function is with which button and whether or not the listeners are already assigned seems like way too much work just to properly disable a button.

I have a button that when you roll over it a big window pops up, but then when you click on it, it pops the window up again, now its not a problem but i would like to know if i can disable the click function somehow. so that only the roll over works.
I know you can probably use a movie clip and just tell it with actionscript to load when rolled over, but i don't know how

I have some buttons that play an external swf inside an empty movie clip on the main timeline. I was wondering what Actionscript I need to disable the button when it is pressed. I want the button to still have roll over functionality and everything, but I just want the swf to load once when the button is pressed. Below is the script I am using right now.
on (release) {
//load Movie Behavior
if(this.content == Number(this.content)){
