ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash 8 Advanced Button Actions?
Mar 7, 2007
I'm creating a header with navigation buttons that are thumbnails of larger images. When a button is moused over I would like a short transition, that spans the entire stage, followed by a display of a larger image of the thumbnail button on the left side of my stage. The transition is constant for each button but the images pertain to specific areas of my site. Basically I'd like to use this mouseover as a visual preview and when then the button is clicked the visitor is taken to that particular section of my site.

For some reason I can't add ActionScript actions to a timeline frame within a Button Symbol, like I normally would with MovieClip symbols or on the stage. The Actions panel shows this message:"In ActionScript 3.0, code cannot be placed directly on objects. Please select a frame..."even though I definetely have a frame selected.
EDIT: Screenshot as requested. As you can see, a frame is clearly selected...

Basically I am trying to link two buttons so that two separate areas activate as one button including with rollovers etc. I am creating a flash application that features a series of tabs along the top of the page that when rolled over, will light up. When clicked on, these tabs will take the user to a different page. My problem is that I have an image on the left hand side of the application that features areas of the image that will take the user to the same place. I wish to link the button rollovers so that when the user rolls over the tab, the image will light up and vice versa. I have been unable to find a solution to this myself - the closest I came was making the area one button, but due to the distance the image and tabs are apart, the whole screen becomes one big button!

Note the button at the top called portfolio, on mouseover this button should loop through the "mouseover" label section, and when the user takes the mouse off of it it should continue to play through what it has started, and stop at the begining of the mouseover labelwhen the user clicks on the button it should play through the "trans" label (only once) and begin to loop at the label section "current" when the user goes to another section, for example, clicks another button besides portfolio, the animation should stop on the label "visited" my code for it to loop looks like this (on the invisible button over the movie clip)
on (rollOver) {
portfolioBtn_mc.gotoAndPlay("mouseover");
}

I'm new to Flash and am looking to use the following tutorial to create an advanced button. I know it is probably a very simple fix, I just cannot figure it out. [URL] In the tutorial the rollover and onrelease has the following script this.onRollOut = function(){ rewind = true;} this.onRelease = function(){getURL [URL]); } I have tried to change the on.Release command to go to and play another frame in to movie instead of opening a new url. But I'm not getting it to work correctly.

I got this early version of a sliding menu. See file "scrolling.fla". Its got four images that slides into place when you click on the small colored buttons. The thing is I want the movie to quit/shut down when I press the red button, AFTER the red image has moved back in place.The code for the red button is:
on (press) {
_root.xnew = _root.mask2._x+(-2-1)*458.5/2;
}
I added the following:
on (rollOut) {
_root.unloadMovie();
}
It works in a sense but I dont want to use "on (rollOut)", because you might shut down the slideshow involuntary moving the cursor on your way to the other buttons. So the question is, yet again, how to quit the movie after the red image is back in place?

I`ve made a movie that has one button , now when I click on button this code will execute exactly :
Code:
b1.onPress = function() {
loadMovie("textarea-load.swf",555);
};
I need add another code to hide textarea-load.swf from my movie and this action should occur when I press same button once again . Note : I don`t have any movie with "555" instance name but it helps me to run my movie

I got four buttons that pull up images in a slide show. I want the fourth button to first pull the image in place and THEN shut down the movie clip. I thought this would be easy, but no. Unfortunately I canīt attach the fla-file on this forum. You could take a look at this:
on (press) {
_root.xnew = _root.mask2._x+(-2-1)*458.5/2;
}
Thatīs the code for the last/fourth button, it pulls the fourth image in place. So thatīs in order.I added this below in the same script:
on (rollOut) {
_root.unloadMovie();
}
It works in a sense. The movie falls into place when I click the button and the movie quits when I move the cursor. But it also means you might shut down the slide show involuntary when you move the cursor going for any of the other buttons.

I have made a simple menu with a 'slider' using this tutorial. What I am wondering is if it's possible to have different actions for one button. Here is my first menu button:
Code:
on (rollOver) {
// slider - Movie Clip's Instance Name. button_1 - Button's Instance Name.

I used a tutorial to attempt to set up my code so that after a button is released and an external .swf is loaded the same button can't be activated again (on release or on rollover) until a different button is released.
Here is an example of my actionscript. What I'm trying to do here is just have the button not replay the mc in the over state if it's movie clip is already loaded in[code]...

I have a project where I have 80 or so invisible buttons, that when clicked, need to load a movie clip from the library into a mc on the stage, as well as cause a rollover and rollout state on a "movie clip button" that's sitting underneath the invisible button. This is in ActionScript 2.0.Here's a example of one of my button actions:
ActionScript Code:[code]....
The way it works is "invis_1_1" is the first invisible button in a group, the 1_1 refers to the button being in the first column and the first row in a grid. The "movie button" it's controlling is "col1row1" which has a "on" and "off" state. When the invisible button is clicked it loads "1_1", which is a movie clip in the library, into a holder movie clip.The dilema I'm running into is I'll need to write this code over 80 times with a slight change each time to the instance names etc. I'm sure there's a way to do this with an array but I'm still new to using arrays.

So I am trying to make a button in flash which when pressed, goes to frame 253, plays until it reaches 264, and then gotoAndPlay frame 527. The code that I used worked, until I added another button which does the same thing but with different frames. Both buttons are on the same page. The buttons seem to work once, then forget what it is they are supposed to do.Here is the code I used:
ActionScript Code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(253);

I am using an external .as file for my code. How do I add actions to a button that is not on the stage but its on another frame in the movie (one that user access later). What is the best practice to add actions to items not present at the start?
Of course I could make another copy of the button on frame 1 and add it off the stage in the invisible part. This is what I was doing till now. IS there another way to do this, a more ethical way?

How do you trigger the actions associated with a button
take for example a button called "buttonGo" that you have specific code in. When you click button b you also want buttonGo to execute its code.

There was a thread, not sure if it was in AS or Experiments or MX, but is was this "McSlider" .as driven thing. The link below is my adaptation of it. I am even sure some one brought up nesting mcs with button actions. I just can't find the thread.(i.e the boy is an mc inside the slider with a rollOver and RollOut, but they do not work.

I saw this done before and know it's possible... I just need some clarity as to the process.
