I would like to load the draggable menu externally into another SWF movie. I have my main movie (main.swf) and the draggable menu movie (draggable.swf). I can get the draggable.swf to load into the main.swf, however, I can't seem to figure out how to get the external draggable.swf to work within the main.swf. Once it's loaded, it is totally static

View 1 RepliesI'm loading a external swf into a movie everything is fine with that. The only problem is that its loading only a part of it. Does anybody know why? Also, this swf is a mp3 player with streaming. The streaming part works but the playback doesn't.If i start only the mp3 player by itself it's working.here is the fla for the player

View 12 RepliesI am building a vertical menu that is draggable on the Y axis.
1.How do I add easing? Can I use fuse?
2.If the button that is being dragged reaches a point on the y axis it would trigger a function. If it is let go before reaching that point the button would snap back to the original position. I guess a simple (if statement) would work - but not working for me
3.Last thing. It is a vertical menu, so when a button is being dragged everything above it would drag with it. Cannot seem to get that to happen
Suppose I have 5 links that load different SWF files. I'm loading the first one in the background and I will continue to load the other SWFs once the previous one has completed.Suppose a user clicks link 4 but only SWFs 1 and 2 have been fully loaded and SWF 3 is currently being loaded. Would it be possible to pause loading 3 and skip to part 4 and finish loading that?
View 0 RepliesI'm using the code below for an infinite looping menu but this menu code makes it move on its own. I want the looping/movement to be activated by the user literally dragging up and down. Does anyone know how I can alter this code so it responds to the user dragging up and down.
[Code]...
i want to make this menu which a part of it rotates. I have a circle with text besides it. This are the buttons. On this circle i have some kinda thing which points the button of where the users mouse is on. So each time the users chooses anothe button, the pointer has to rotate to that button. If there is no mouseover or anything, the pointer has to point the button on where the user is on the site (so in home the point has to point to home button)
View 13 Repliesi have a menu which has 10 items. there are sub menus for each of them. the submenus total to 40 items. and when i click on ech of these submenus, then i need an image to appear on a part of the stage. Now, I need the same effect for ech of the image. Say when i click on the 1st submenu of the 1st main menu, the image of an apple comes from the bottom the stage to the centre of the stage.
Now when I click on any other submenu - say 1st submenu of the 3rd main menu, this apple image should go off the stage from the top and an image of mango should appear from the bottom of the stage to the centre of the stage (same as how apple image appeared). So, basically, i need any image to come from the bottom of the stage to centre of the screen and whn a diff image is calld, the image on the screen shld go off frm centre to the top.
Very close to finishing this XML menu gallery. Pieced together with Kirupas gallery tutorial and "Claudio's" scrolling script. The layout is complete but unfortunately the functionality (hardest-part) is not.
So what I'm hoping to accomplish... ?
1. Multi gallery functionality (i.e.. menu sys.. Ad / Catalogs / Logo's).
Currently the XML is only set up to load the Advert section and the menu on the right does not yet work independently. In the end i hope to have it load other sections based on the description "Catalogs" would load the catalog section.
2. Simplifying my XML (i.e.. Write it so it's more clearly defined)
I included an example of the XML file I would like to utilize with my FLA. Unfortunately the way the AS is set up currently, I can't simply swap this file out. I'm baffled about the script that drives this functionality.
3. Add NEW feature. (i.e.. Make the menu on right "Ads / Catalogs / Logos") populate with dynamic text from the XML (i.e.. <gallery name="ADVERTS"> ). At the moment this is being populated with an image which proves to be more time consuming to make.
4. "Info" area... need to populate this with text relating to individual parts of gallery.
5. "View"... need to give a larger view of this file on click or rollover - opening another window in flash.
OK, now that i read through this... looks like I have farther to go then I thought.Anyway,I Hope i haven't scared all you flash pro's off...I know this stuff isn't very cut and dry seeing there's many ways to achieve the same goal. Ideally I would like to learn the most efficient method for doing this.
I have two draggable clips, each set to jump to the top when released, this works fine. My issue is that the "draggable area" is larger than the imported images (since they are angled, & flash sets mc's to square or rectangles) - Ive tried various masking ideas, no joy - trouble is that if I placed the clips too close together it becomes difficult to select the one the user wants (since I need to include four/five clips).

i have a main movie w/c is draggable and zoomable where i drag another movie on top of it. Each have its own instance names. my problem is my main movie is the only one that ca be drag and zoom.
[Code]...
I know this is a bit common now, but I can't seem to find a way to make this work as I need it to.I've got a movie clip that I need to allow dragging on.The movie clip is the background to a website. It is very long in dimensions (lets say 5,000px by 384px).Anyway, the movie clip will align at 0,0 and then should be able to be scrolled horizontally until the end of the graphic reaches the end of the stage.My document size is 1024 x 384.I'd like to be able to make the movie scroll and ease on drag.
View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if there is a way to duplicate a mc so that when you drag & drop a ball, for example, there can be 50 balls stacked underneath, each with its own capabilities to be dragged individually? Obviously the goal is to be able to do this without applying the start/stop drag action to each ball.

View 7 RepliesI'm creating a draggable movie clip (an arrow symbol) that drags along a rectangular track. Works fine but my issue is when the arrow's y axis is at a certain position, it needs to remove a movie clip instance and also run a trace statement. Right now, it's not doing that (if I change the == in the if statement to += it works but then it just works as soon as you mouse down on the arrow) and I'm wondering where I'm goofing up. Here's my code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;

I am building a click through presentation that has some small text in it. To maintain the design and allow for readability, I have added a zoom feature.Here is the structure of the movie,Stage - contains pages movie clip and forward/reverse click buttons for changing pagesThere is a button at the _root level that uses a tweener to scale the pages_mc up to 170%. When this is clicked, it allows the pages to be dragged around the screen so you can look at different sections. When you click the button again, it returns the pages back to their original size stops drag.My problem is, on the pages, there are buttons with links to external sites. Once startDrag has been invoked, I cannot touch the buttons inside the movie clip. Is there a way to make these buttons work?
Code below
magUp_btn.onRelease = function() { this._visible = false; TweenLite.to(pages_mc, .25, {_x:-250, _y:-193, _xscale:170, _yscale:170}); TweenLite.to(magUp_mc, .75, {_alpha:0});

View 7 RepliesI have a movie clip on the main timeline in frame 1 that I named moveablekey. What it is supposed to be is a key for a map that you can move around on the map. When you scroll over/off the key it will hide/unhide the actual key. The key has some buttons that I want to allow to go to a different link when clicked. When I test the key without the code below it will work on the link and take me to the link, but when I put the code into the main timeline it stops the link from working. Here is what I think is happening: The code seems to make it so wherever I click on the movie clip it is doing the start/stop drag code and won't recognize the buttons within the movie clip. So is there a way that I can make just the header of the key to be clickable to start/stop the drag, but still move the entire key, and allow for the buttons to be clicked?
Code:
stop();
moveablekey.onPress = function(){
startDrag(this);
Mouse.hide();[code]..........

View 2 RepliesI have created a multi-scene flash document. One of my buttons on the stage loads a movie clip from my library and has the following script:
on (press) {
this.attachMovie("help", "window", 1);
window._x = -300;
window._y = 200;
}
Works great. Then inside this movie clip, I have an invisible button with the following script:
on (press) {
startDrag(window);
}
on (release) {
stopDrag();
}
This allows the movie clip that popped up to be draggable. This also works perfectly.
My problem is, the button will only attach the movie clip on the first scene. I currently have it loading in level 1. Does anyone know how I can work around this?
Unfortunatly im having to extend to more draggable objects. So they will be within another movie clip so i can have them scrolling. After making the scroll, the draggable objects dont register on the droptarget as they are within another movie clip. Below is i think the part of the code that needs to be changed so the draggable objects know where to find the drop target.

I　have to swf files.
One is menu.swf and the other is long.swf
Menu.swf has basically a menu and loads long.swf in to it. Long.swf is a file with a very long background, only part of it is displayed at a time.
My question is quite basic- how do I get the menu.swf to load long.swf and go directly to a specific part of the background.
I can get long.swf to go directly where I need it with its internal navigation by using tweenlight, but not from menu.swf.
I need a tutorial for a hierarchical drop down menu system that drops down 3 sub levels. Do I make the items in the sub menus individual buttons and then insert them into a movie clip or make every sub menu item a movie clip and insert them into buttons?
