I have 6 "status" buttons as movieclips... and I have a separate menu with the same options as the 6 status buttons. When I click a menu option from that separate menu, I'm trying to dim out the 5 buttons that are inactive leaving the item chosen active.
Here is the code that I have so far but when I click one of the menu items, all of the buttons dim instead of all but the item clicked.[code]...
I have 4 buttons, I need each button to fade the others out as the mouseover event occurs. I can get this to work if I add in one other button to the actionscript on one, but as soon as I add actionscript for another one I get errors.

I have a page with alot of logos (buttons) and I would want so when the mouse is over a logo all the others fade like 50% and when you move your mouse away they go back to 100%, This should be for every button on the stage.
View 7 RepliesI'm designing a site for a friend and I have a menu bar across the top with 6 buttons. I made your basic rollover with CSS, but now I'm asked if something can be done about the abrupt change from the down state to the rollover state. Not knowing much at all about Flash, I thought this would be pretty simple and a good way to get acquainted with the program. But after spending hours today rummaging through Google I'm considering digging my eyes out with a spoon. It seems that no tutorial quite tells me what I need to do, and when I try to adapt what I'm told to what I need, it all stops working. There seems to be a dozen different ways to do the same thing and now I'm just really confused. So here is what I need:
When you mouse over the button, it quickly transitions/fades into the highlight/rollover image. When you move the cursor away, it fades back to normal. And *possibly* a quick transition to another highlight on click.
I need to create in which two images fade in and fade out, and each of them must be clickable and hyperlink to a separate URL.I've got the fading going okay, but I cannot for the life of me get even a single button to work on it.

View 6 RepliesI have 3 buttons profile, about and contact. what I am doing is when I click on profile all the buttons should fade off first and then only the about and contact button should appear on the scene.
bt_1.onRelease = function(){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(bt_1 >= 0){

This is the code for fade off all the buttons. Now I want to fade in only the bt_2 and bt_3 buttons. Is it possible
I'm working on a site and the customer wants a small image gallery, only about 6 pics, but he wants the buttons to work as they do on this BBC page, i.e. they fade in when the cursor is over the image area. I've tried various ways, but whenever I put an action on, say, an invisible button it overrides the actions on the buttons.
View 5 RepliesLook at the attached images for an example : My main goal is that when I roll over the services button, I want the submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade in. Then when I roll over the portfolio button, I want the first submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade out and the second submenu ( clients, corporate, weddings, etc..) to fade in and to stay like this. Finally when I roll over testimonials, the second submenu fades out. And so on for the rest of the buttons.
FYI, i know how to animate the buttons to fade in/out but i dont know how to make them fade out when i roll over the other buttons.. I know this can be done with action script but I have no clue how... Here is my fla and swf.[URL]

View 3 RepliesThis is a real general question but I'll explain what I'm trying to ask for.I'm trying to make a button that when you press it, you continue on to the next "scene." I know how to do that now.I also want music to play when clicking the button but the issue remains, how will the music keep up if the user is pressing it too soon? I don't want it to end abruptly so I need a code that fades the music out (or in).
View 1 RepliesI am creating an animation. In the Stage I have filled up it almost with many squares in its different rows and columns, and leaving something of space among them (something as well as the tiles), and each of these are buttons, that when they settle above an animation begins type fade, but returning to the main color. My question is with respect to creating an animation with them, I have all in the Stage, but my intention is that when begins, appear 1 to 1, with fade in, and randomly.

The AS3 script below is a cross-fade that is time-based with no user control. How do I keep the cross fade and control it with the "before" and "after" buttons? And with the API opening in its "before" state? And for users to be able to click and/or hover between the two. The link to what I'm trying to set up is:
http:[url].....The code is:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;[code].....
What I want to do is:
Click on button one: Content1 fades to view
Click on a different button: Content1 fades to white, content2 fades to view.
I can make it so the content fades to view, but I don't know how to made it fade away and then have new content fade in when you click another button.
I have three buttons on my stage, each with an instance name of USA_btn, Canada_btn, and Mexico_btn. I also have corresponding text with instances names of USA_txt, Canada_txt, and Mexico_txt. When file opens, you see all three buttons on stage and USA_txt. When the user clicks Canada_btn, the USA_txt should fade out, and Canada_txt should fade in. I need to accomplish this with action script as I will eventually have 10 combinations.
I can determine the instance name when a button is clicked with event.CurrentTarget.name. How can I use the instance name to:
1) Fade out old text?
2) Fade in new text?
I assume I will set opacity=0 but I keep getting error #1056: Cannot create property alpha on String.
I have four movie clips with instance names of "purple_ob", "green_ob", "orange_ob" and "blue_ob" and four buttons "purple_but", "green_but", "orange_but" and "blue_but" I want to have the movie clips automatically fade from one to another continually with a 5 second pause inbetween, but then if the user clicks one of the four buttons it will fade the relevant movieclip in. Then if nothing else is pressed the fading will carry on working through the four images in a loop.
So far I have the movie clips fading on a button press but how do I implement the automatic fading from one MC to another?

I just started to mess with Flash past week, however I will learn all that's necessary. This time I AM looking for a quick fix though, since I already know how to make the simplest slideshows with next, previous buttons, but I don't know how to make images fade into each other and add captions, as well as stop the animation when mouse is over the image. I may be ignorant - still a newbie - but I think it all has to do with just adding right tags in Actions.[URL]
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a slide show which I would like work automatically (fade in and out) as well as being able to be prompted to switch via buttons... I know this is a super simple thing, but I cannot get all the buttons to work. The buttons are copies of the same instance with different instance names and are located at the 3 respective frames in timeline where the pieces of slideshow should fade in/out. I get the first set of buttons to work:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
controls.bttn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1);
function clickSection1 (evtObj:MouseEvent) {
// trace shows what's happening in the output window
trace ("The Button 1 was clicked!")
But when I add more buttons that are located later on in a timeline, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I figured out how I can create a roll over effect on one button so it fades in & out depending on if you are on it or not. I'm trying to create the same effect for my other 13 or so buttons & I can't seem to get it. I keep getting errors any way I try to code it. This is the code I have **trying to add the code for my first 2 thumbs"

Secondly here is my NEW problem.... I have some buttons on my page that fade as you roll over them, and they were working fine, UNTILL i changed my Publishing Settings>Flash >JPEG settings.. from 80 % to 100%. But even if i changed it to 81% it still messes up the fade. When i say messes up i mean the fade stops fading, and it just snaps from the pic to black.
View 7 RepliesI have setup some nav buttons on my website. When I click one of the buttons, I want the current page to fade out, and I don't want the other page fading in until the first one is gone. This means I need a statement to go along with each button so that they all get rid of the current page, and don't fade in their respective pages until the first one is gone. Here is my current code:
buttons_mc.about_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CL ICK,disappear);
buttons_mc.about_mc.buttonMode = true;
buttons_mc.about_mc.useHandCursor = true;[code]...
So, what do I need in order for this to all function correctly, once "home_mc" has reached its final frame?
I'm trying to do a presentation of some Adobe Illustrator graphics in flash for an architectual presentation. I want to zoom in on some content and have new layers fade in and out. I guess this is done by tweens, as I had som succes in that direction.The problem becomes obvious when I want to control my presentation. I want to set cue points/keyframes/whatever so that the presentation will start at the click of a 'next button' or a click og the mouse. Then I want it to stop at some point when the tween/moving around of objects is done, so that I have talking time before playing the next tween with a click etc.
View 3 RepliesI am almost there I think. I am using the FUSEKit to fade in and out clips from an array.The fade in and fade out cycle works fine for the first item in the array, however it doesn't increment like it should to fade in and out the next clip from the array. It seems to me that the second onEnterFrame isn't being called for some reason, perhaps an inheritance problem?
The code is basically just using an onClipEvent to see if the current clip has hit either 0 or 100 alpha and then playing the next fade in or out function after that point. Any clue why it doesn't increment? It should finish the cycle, move to the next array item, and then when they are all done go back to the first item, infinitely.

I don't know why, but this has always been a problem for me. What is the best way to cross fade images in an array? Say I have 10 image and I want them to fade over each other and just loop through the array indefinitely (also taking the preload into consideration).

As you can see, there are a bunch of images in an array that load with the page. I want these images to fade in one at a time in quick succession when the page loads, and then do the same thing when one of the arrows is clicked and it moves to the next set of images. How do I accomplish this?
