ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX] Using Script In Buttons To Change Variables

May 27, 2004

I'm trying to use actionscript in a button to increment variables in my program. ie. when you click the button it increments a variable and so displays different information in one of my dynamic text boxes. The program doesn't seem to recognise the button input. I understand you have to give your button an instance name but I'm not sure how to set up the code to recognise this input. The code in my button is on (release) { buttonup++;} This is meant to increment a variable of that name but doesn't appear to work.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Variables - Next / Prev Buttons [fmx]

Apr 26, 2003

I have a movie which consists of 4 buttons( PLAY, PREVIOUS, NEXT and STOP)

[Code]...

These buttons work correctly and advance or reverse in sequencial order (slide1,slide2,slide3,slide4). However the movie can run from start to finish wihtout the use of the navigation. My problem is that if I let the movies run independently and then choose to use the next button while(for example) "slide3" is playing, the movie jumps to "slide1". Note that these slide labels are located within movieclip named "allunits" I know that the variable currentSlide is still equal to 1 thus returning the playhead to label "slide1".

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Variables Value In It?

May 3, 2011

I'm new to AS3 and programming in general and thought I could find some help here. I've tried researching and fixing this problem myself but I can't seem to figure it out.

I'm essentially making a version of Pong as a small project to get myself into programming using AS3. My problem is I've got the ball moving left towards the edge of the stage but I can't make it come back once it reaches the border.

I've an idea of what needs to be done, I need to make a function that sends the ball off to the side of the screen then have an if statement that detects when the ball reaches the border that then tells the ball to stop moving in that direction and move to the other side of the screen. [code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass Variables Via Buttons?

Jan 22, 2010

if I have a setup like this[code]...

I start the movie and it traces "null" which makes sense. But when I click on a button it doesn't trace the button name. I know the disconnect is at the point where I'm clicking the button. Is there a way to put a listener into the content movie clip that will run the code again when a button is clicked?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Send Variables From Buttons?

Jun 9, 2008

I have three movie clips that I am using as buttons. Their instances in the movie are Espanol_btn, Francais_btn and Deutsch_btn. I have added script to control the rollover and press/release states of the buttons, and now need to get the script to recognise which of the three buttons was pressed, store that result in the variable called lang (The posibilities are Espanol, Francais or Deutsch), and depending on what the variable land is, do different things. The script is below.how I can get this to work.

Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Variables With Textbox

Nov 22, 2005

Right, is it possible to change the varaible of an object within flash (5) through the use of a textbox? The reason being we're doing a group project with Flash and MaxMSP and when a video camera picks up movement, numbers will be sent from MaxMSP through to flash.

Thus, when these numbers "arrive" in flash I want them to trigger certain events. For instance (where this code resides in the movie clip: 'tree'):

Code:
onClipEvent(load){
if(textbox=5){
gotoAndPlay("grow");
}
}

Here, the idea is that when '5' is sent to flash a tree will grow and when 4 is sent something else will grow etc... However, because I don't want stuff growing all the time I need to change the variable of an object. I presume a textbox would be the easiest way of going about it

ActionScript 2.0 :: Saving And Loading Variables Using Buttons

Jun 21, 2011

So I want to do saving and loading for variables. I.E. I want to save a variable by pressing the save button. When you use the "load" button, the variable is what it was when it was saved. I've tried this but it didn't work...

Code:
//Code on the frame
var saveState = SharedObject.getLocal("Cookie");

//Code on the save button
on (release) {
_root.save.gotoAndPlay(2);
savefile.data.blah = _root.blah;
savefile.flush();
}

//Code on the load button
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(3);
_root.blah = savefile.data.blah;

ActionScript 2.0 :: (Flash CS3) Defining Variables To Different Buttons?

Nov 24, 2010

I'm trying to assign actions to various buttons for a website I am building, however I would also like to play a little movie first each time before linking to their individual different frames. The movie is the same for each button but then, obviously each button ultimately needs to link to a different frame. I'm guessing a nifty mix of gotoandPlay and variables are the answer but I'm getting myself in knots.

The structure of the site is as follows.On the main stage I currently have 4 frames. Each frame contains a different "page" of the website. The "home" frame has the navigation bar (including a sub-menu movie which has a number of buttons nested inside it which I think is going to be tricky). At the end of the "home" movie, there is a little fade animation which is labeled/ red flagged on the timeline - and it's this little animation I would like to have playing when a button is clicked on before linking to another frame.

At the moment the best I can manage is that when the button is clicked it goes back to the beginning of it's movie (a problem with the target paths perhaps?) as opposed to a label within the parent movie.I also think where I'm getting confused is exactly where I am supposed to define all the various variables and pieces of actionscript. The little snippits of code I have are as follows: Within the button I am trying to link, so far I have:

on(release){
_level0.frame_to_goto = "artwork";
play();
}

The "artwork" tag is the frame specific to that button (this is one of the sub-buttons that is nested within a submenu movie).Then in the movie for the webpage I have the following in the last frame of the mini animation that I want to play before the button links to the artwork frame:

stop();
if(_level0.frame_to_goto != undefined){
_level0.gotoAndPlay(_level0.frame_to_goto);
}else{
trace("An error as occured!");
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling A Movie Clip With Buttons And Variables?

Mar 12, 2002

I have two buttons (a and b) and a ball movie clip (ballMove) on the screen.This is what I want to happen:The ball starts off under button A. If you click button A, the ball stays where it is. If you click button B, the ball moves over to button B.When the ball is under button B it won't move if B if clicked, but will move to A if A is clicked.How I plan on doing this is within the ball movie there will be three motion tweens, staggered so they don't overlap. The first isn't a tween at all, actually. It is one key frame at the very start of the movie timeline. I have labelled it "beginning". Also, it has a stop action and var busbus = 1. Bus is the variable I want to use to track the position of the ball.

The next tween is the ball travelling from point a to b. The start frame is labelled "atobbegin". There is a keyframe at the end labelled "atobeend". A stop action is on this keyframe, and also bus = 4.The final tween is the ball travelling from point b to point a. The start frame is labelled "btoabegin" and the end keyframe is labelled "btoaend" with a stop action and bus = 8.Eek, just got Deja Vu.er, moving right along....

On button A I have assigned these actions:
on (release) {
if (_root.ballMove.bus == 4) {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change The Image Of A Mc, Why Doesnt It Inherit The Other Variables?

Feb 19, 2009

I've got a bunch of mc's which I've put in an array. With these mc's you can do a lot of different things, like dragdrop and rotation. I also got a button which on mouse down, changes the image of the mc. It only changes the image.. not the size. So far so good...But when I've clicked the button and the mc's all change their image... They are not able to dragdrop / rotation anymore. I do not understand why this is happening... because by clicking that button... it doesn't change the names of the mc's.....here is the code:

library = new mc_library();

ActionScript 2.0 :: [CS3] Change Values Of Variables Inside The Array?

Mar 20, 2009

My intention is to have an array with several variables, each one with a different name, all of them of the type 'Number'. This I can do.What I can't do is to access the variables using the array's index.

Paste this on your frame 1:

Code:
trace("======at frame 1======");
//objects//
var objects:Array = new Array();

[code]....

As you can see, the code is changing the value of the array element and not the value of the variable inside the array element.

How To Change Buttons

Jul 21, 2009

On the bottom layer of the scene, I have the background art and logos.On a second layer, I want to put graphics associated with the button selection of the user.On a third layer I will have the buttons. I want to be able to switch the buttons to another language when a user clicks on a flag at the bottom of the art board, but no matter what language is showing, I want the buttons to call up the related material on the second layer. For instance, I will have one "Install Software" button that will switch to "Software Installieren" when clicking on the German flag and "Installation du logiciel" when French is selected.
