I'm fine with on(release) to take to a new frame etc but this is my situation.
Imagine a Windows PC. You click the Start Button, it makes the start menu appear, no matter what folder/window/software you have open. Now liken it to a flash movie. Interactive, to make a button to make a set of graphics appear in a set place on the frame.
I am trying to simulate adjusting an LCD screen's contrast using two buttons.
The LCD is one graphic on ONE key frame that runs the entire length of the timeline.
Not sure how to start with the action scripting for this... i would like to use hex values if possible, but had no luck so far with my AS2.
The hard part is that i have a text box on top of the LCD on many different keyframes and the color / brightness of the this will have to change accordingly with the LCD screen.
I have made a simple Drag and Drop map, where its the map being dragged by the mouse. The thing is, i need to have a grid of buttons on this map, which you can click. But since im dragging the actual map, my buttons wont follow. They stay where they are.An example would be the united states world map, then each state is a button i can click. A problem would be that if the entire map is covered in buttons, then my mouse cant drag the background map as im selecting a button when i drag. perhaps i can make the buttons drag the map instead?This is the code for dragging the map:
Code:
Map.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, grabMe);
Map.buttonMode = true;[code]..........
I want to make a button that makes you got to a random frame within a certain range (eg frame 41-50) when you press it. I have tried various codes but so far no luck. Im using AS 2
and the button is within a couple of movie clips, but you can still click it when you test
i have one button (enter_btn) inside of one moviclip(enter_mc), and I need to know how to call the button through my frame root?
I use one movieclip only to make a fade in of my button in only one frame of my frame root.

After clicking this button i go to a random frame from frame 1-5 .. something like that.If i ever click this button this goes me to a frame ranging from frame 1 up to frame 5LOl does this make sense.. .XD just answer me i'm going nuts lewl )How do i make a numerical stepper like thisSTR : 1/10AGI : 1/10LUK : 1/10 STATS AVAILABLE : 20I made the limit for each stats but it stills doesn't reduce the stats nor go to the limit of 20 instead they go like thisSTR : 10/10AGI : 10/10LUK : 10/10 STATS AVAILABLE : 20

I was wondering if there is a way for a button on the main timeline that when pressed will go to the next frame in an embedded swf. The embedded swf is inside a movieclip with the instance name "gallery" so I thought the following code would work
Code:
on (press) {
gallery.gotoAndStop (_currentframe+1);
}
Flash says the code is okay but no luck. I am new to AS to I must be missing something. Any pointers?
Im trying to make a back button using AS3 in CS4 here is the code im using function onClick12(event:MouseEvent):void {gotoAndPlay(50);} reo_btn.addEventListener MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onClick12); it brings me back to the specified frame but when I click next on that frame it brings me to the frame following the one with the back button. here is my code for one of those frames stop();

I'm making a flash order form with Action Script 3, and I can't figure out how to make a button which does this:
1. You click on the 'nextbutton'
2. Frame 2 is shown
Using action script 3 ( preferably ) is there a way of making it so when clicked my button takes you to a particular frame in another separate flash movie. ie frame 255, - and not just load frame 1 of the other movie.

In to the frame?
i put a code in to Flash AS3 to go to another frame when the play button is clicked, and it has worked successfully. But when it goes on to the other frame and i click, the play button comes up and keeps making the game i've made restart. Does anyone know how i can stop the function after it's gone onto the next frame?

Im trying to get my head around actionscripting....and this is what i have so far....but its not working as i want.
what im trying to do is make the button frame go to frm2 when its clicked and in so doing, it makes the _root goto the respective label. how can i tell the other buttons (mcs) to stay at frame 1 when one of the other buttons are clicked?
var is new for me....am i setting it right?
code inside button container mc:
Code:
//
var C=0;
//

also, how can i add a rollover functionality that does not break the other commands on the buttons (ie: stop at frm2)
I'm working on some fairly detailed character animations, and accordingly have made most of the characters parts into graphic symbols. For instance, his hand is a graphic symbol which has multiple frames for each perspective or pose of the fingers, and I set the symbol to the proper frame in the characters main timeline. I've been having issues, however, when tweening these symbols. I noticed this first when I was working on a jump animation and I just wanted the hand, once its pose is in a state which will be used for the majority of its frames, to tween up and rotate with the arm and body. When I create this tween, however, it forces all other frames of that graphic symbol to be set to that same frame. The start and end frames of the tween are set to the same first frame, and even after trying to manually fix the subsequent frames of the symbol, it wont let me. I've triple checked all my symbol names, frame numbers and settings, and anything else I can think of and everything is in place, so I really have no clue why this is happening
View 2 RepliesI'm stuck on this annoying bug of Flash:to animate a character i have different graphic symbols of hand positions inside a single container graphic symbol; that way instead of having to swap different symbols while animating and tweening, i just have to change the number on the "single frame" input box on the properties of the symbol.
It worked fine a few sessions ago, but now it won't let me change the frame number if there's a tween before that keyframe; tha keyframe isn't participating on any tween, and may even have some frames between the previous tweening one. The only way it will change is if i remove the first tween or add a blank keyframe between them, wich of course isn't an option when animating... i know it would work if i add a new layer and continue there, but it'll add a lot of mess to the already busy timeline.
The strange thing is that it remains working on some frames, from the previous session, and if a cut and paste them i can change the frame number freely; but if i try to build a secuence from scratch, it won't let me, even on a new document.
