There are three buttons on the stage. The second button opens a dropdown menu and pushes the third button. I solved this by changing the _y position but it's crude! Then, when you press button#3 or button#1, the dropdown menu goes up and all the buttons realign to their initial positions. Here's the script for button#1 and button#3 (activeZone is a hidden Movie Clip that triggers the animation):

Note: I am only using the Flash animation in IE only as I created an equivalent, jQuery based animation for all other browsers (because, surprise, IE didn't handle the jQuery version).look at this in IE only.The Problemhen you hover over the dropdown menus, the Flash animation temporarily "freezes" and the continues. This causes choppy behavior in the Flash animation.
View 1 RepliesI created a dropdown menu by using a mask over animation. When you rollover the correct button a mask lowers down showing the dropdown buttons. then you can roll over each one showing a small tint animation. I wrote a script on that layer telling it to gotoAndPlay(21) when you click any one of the buttons. however whenever I click on one of the dropdown menu Items nothing happens. Is this because of the stop action I have at that frame?? and if so How do I get around that.
View 2 RepliesI was trying to code a rollover rollout dropdown menu in code. I made a movieclip in the library which imports a rectangle sprite. The rectangle sprite moves down on frame2 and back up on frame3. When I called the frame from document level it gives me following error:

i have 2 buttons. One is directing to frame in a movieClip named "s1". The second is directing to a different frame in the same MC named "s2". S1 is before S2.But when i am clicking the button for S1- it is ok. But with the button for going to s2... it is like nothing is going on. No errors, no nothing.
ActionScript Code:
buttonOne.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, click1);
buttonTwo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, click2);[code]......
So i've got this program i've done, and it's working pretty nice I have to say.Altho there are some bugs I can't get around, and now it was so long ago I wrote this that I'm having a hard time changing stuff in it too.So if you have time, please test my application, and if you find any bugs and or solutions to them please reply.The bugs I've found so far is messing with the "next" funcion (pressing enter while the list runs a lot in an abusive manner) will make the "play" command keep running whatever you do. Nothing will clear this so pause will unpause, menu will autostart and so on.Other bug is brown belt second and first degree displaying yellow belt when starting second run thru or when messing with next (enter). I have absolutely no idea why that happens...
View 0 RepliesI'm making a Flash game and rather than putting all the AS3 on a seperate .as file, I'm throwing it on the timeline, which may or may not be a mistake since this game is getting really big, really fast and messy.And so I'm getting this error when I test:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at GameBeta_MainTimeline_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
From what I've read on this error, it refers to something that isn't instantiated yet, like something that's out of order? Like I'm referring to something that doesn't exist at the point in time that I'm referring to it?
stop();
//TITLE PAGE
play_game.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startgame)[code].....
Before I had each page with it's own Actionscript and buttons inside their own movieclips on the timeline. That was getting confusing so I took everything out of the movieclips to place everything on one timeline and have one layer of Actionscript hoping to simplify things and find the problem easier. No luck. It's supposed to have a Title page and a button that goes to the 2nd page where you input your name, and while you type, it shows your name before you confirm by hitting another button that finally goes to the Character Creation page. When I test, I just get that Error#1009, it'll get to the 2nd page for the name input, but the text fields act wacky and the button to proceed isn't working. I'm hoping that when I find the source of this error, the rest will be fixed as well.

Yet the code that Flash gives you is a horrible messy bit of code. Why is 5 lines of code = to Flash's default HTML embedding code. Am i right in thinking theres no disadvantage to use the jQuery version?
I'm having with a menu navigation system. I'm using Flash MX. I have created a menu system for the site I'm building ([URL]) where one of the buttons "Choose photographer" drops down a list of names. All the other buttons just jump to another page. The drop down is currently using tweens also the logo moves to the left as the dropdown appears and returns when the dropdown returns. All working fine apart from its a bit jerky.
It's I just wanted to get away from tweening and use action scripts instead, as I'm a newbie to all things Flash I trawled the net for tutorials and examples so that I could cobble together the exact same effect. I have managed to get the drop down work and return using the action script and it does seem smoother and works slightly better. But can I get the logo to move to the left and back in time with the drop down...no.
I'm creating a webpage, and I have made some buttons.Image 1 is the homepage, which is frame 1 in Flash.Image 2 shows that when I rollover the button "Portfolio,"I get a dropdown menu.I have this set as frame 3 in Flash.Image 3 shows that I've gone down the dropdown menu and rolled over "Photography." But if I rollout of any of the things from the dropdown menu, it stays at Image 2 (Frame 3)with the dropdown menu visible. Which is a problem...I want to be able to rollout of these buttons to revert back to the homepage, Image 1 (Frame 1).But, for instance, telling "Graphic Design" to go to Frame 1 on rollout means that if I try to go below "Graphic Design" to "Photography," I've rolled out--and so the rest of the menu disappears.So I want to roll be able to select anything from the dropdown menu, and only rollout to Frame 1 if I go outside the entire dropdown menu, not just one button.

I have two frames in my Flash piece. On one frame I have a combobox called source_id, and on the other frame I also have a combobox called source_id. Now I know I could rename these but I want to keep them the same for various reasons.
View 1 RepliesRight, so I've got this engine down:[URL]..EDIT: Arrow keys to move, a to jump.It seems fine at first, but as you can see, if you jump with a platform overhead, you get stuck in that platform - that happens because the registartion point of the mc (the '+') is at the feet of the character. It needs to be this way so that it registers on the ground.

I'm sure it's been posted about a million times before but I've been trying vars searches and seem to always be coming up with answers to do with the exact opposite of what I'm trying to achieve! I'm creating a flash Movie that is 800 x 600 pixels in size and I'd like to fix that size so that it will always be 800 x 600 regardless of the screen resolution of the computer running it. At the moment it seems to scale by default and is winding up looking ugly on other people's computers.

i was in the very initial stage of my code but now i have completed my file and need some help fixing a bug in the file.The basic idea is to arrange the cards in order user seem fit but the problem i am facing is that when i swap cards on mousemove a particular card doesn't have its properties updated it shows xpos ypos and its col and row id as undefined until i click on it and then only the card takes its properties I know i am not setting something properly some where but am kind of totally clueless about it.I am attaching the fla and xml here . the xml is only for the increasing or decreasing the length of the columns and rows.
View 1 RepliesEversince I've worked with AS3, Flash always seems to have some odd way in rendering pixel-precise vectors. For instance, Friday I tried to draw a roundRect with a line around it. However, when zoomed at 100% it looks crappy and not how it's meant to look:So, when zoomed in in Photoshop you'll see more clearly that it's off:But whenever I zoom in with Flash itself, it looks OK:The quality is set to High, so that can't be it. Is there any flag in AS3 to make Flash render vectors more accurate?
View 1 RepliesI have two requirements for a flex charting component:
1) The grid lines should always remain fixed to a scaling I define using an array of data. Something like a graph paper sheet.
2) Plot multiple line series data over this grid.
How does one get complete control over the background grid lines? I have tried a combination of annotation elements and setting the linechart background elements. If I get the grid right, I can't plot over it (Probably due to the scale). how would one go about designing a graphpaper like interface for linecharts in flex/actionscript?
If i have a huge website, and i want to be able to change the "news" section without FIXING the whole .fla and exporting, and uploading it, would it be possible to do this without all of this stuff. can this be done through passwords, inputting text boxes, and dynamic text boxes?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to start making an admin client side application to monitor our service, including its properties that simply cannot be done through Administration Console, like blocking IP addresses of offending users.My problem is that even before I start using the Administration API (on which I will comment further down), I tried to f.e. inspect theshared objects and streams of the application through the Admin. Console, but I get a popup "Failed to make debug connection, please check that the application is in debug mode." Configuration files are unaltered from install, which means xPendingDebugConnections is set to 50, AllowDebugDefault is set to false, BUT in the serve side main.asc file I have "application.allowDebug = true;"Also, on a related note.
I can see that the Administration API lists the API itself, but there is vague to no mention at all where to connect first? I recall spotting somewhere suffixing the RTMP URL with something like "_fcs_debug" or something, but you can see how this frustrates me - I really don't like to google stuff that is supposed to be in the documentation The application instance usually accepts connections from regular non-admin clients, with proper parameters, which are irrelevant for admins unless these are users too (double membership, you can say)

My question is in relation to AS3 dropdowns. You can check the page at: http:[url].....Under the "Visitors" and "Media" links, there are mouseover dropdown menus. You'll notice that they stick a little bit, and to make them go back up, you really have to hit very specific hit areas. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I have a css drop down menu on the header portion of my website and the flash movie plays on the center of the site.
