I have a form saved as an html page, and at the moment my contact button launches this page in a pop up.What I would like is that so when you click my contact button, it loads the pages as a layer so it fits in more with the website and loads ontop of the flash file. For an example check out www.dobi.nu - its and html website but if you go to illustrations and click and image the page loads on top as a layer, just wanna know if it can be done with flash.
as you all know that if we use flash object in web page in internet explorer Internet Explorer displays a box around Flash content and show a tooltip telling the user to click to activate the content. i am using fixit it work fine but problem is once page loaded completely.
I'm trying to activate a jQuery (facebox) in a flash button but no luck all the relevant JS includes are correctly inserted.. now I just need to get my actionscripting correct.
I want to build a web page with a button that when clicked opens up a javascript layer and loads a flash player inside that layer. And that layer would need a close button.
I need to catch a hover event on top of a flash object, so I set the wmode and created an invisible div on top of it to attach the event listeners to. Thing is, I can't click the flash object. The cover is swallowing the clicks, and the things I've tried to go around this have made a mess of the hover events. This is the 30th problem I ran into in 2 days time and it's driving me crazy xD.
I know it's something simple but could someone please take a look at the attached file and tell me what I am doing wrong! There is an MC on the rollOver state of my button but it won't play, it starts to play and then stops.
I have a movie clip that throws out a bunch of little stars. I then have a button (a big star) and I want the movie clip to play when the button is hovered upon. So, basically when you hover over the big star a bunch of little stars float up from behind it. I have attached my fla, and my code for the movie clip is below:
I have a very complicated interface going on in my flash application, with tons of dependencies/variable checking/etc and it would make my life one heck of a lot easier if it was possible to simply "press" or activate an onscreen button via actionscript. I have never seen this referenced, and don't know if it's possible. Search didn't find me anything. Can you do this in some way? "Virtually" activate a button (and thereby all the button's scripting...)
How to make a number key on the keyboard activate a button on the stage. My drum has 6 buttons on it that play notes when you click them with the mouse. But I also want the number keys 1 - 6 to activate the buttons to.
I have flash which contains the map of the United States. Each state is a separate button. When each state is in hover mode, it changes the look/size of that state and adds names of the cities in white on the particular state.I would actually like to add 2 things to this flash.
1) When the state is hovered over, not only will the state change, but the cities belonging to that state (in the list to the right, will highlight)
2) I would like the city names in the list, when hovered over to highlight and to activate the hover mode of that particular state. In addition, that cityName button in the list and the state button should be able to direct to a URL upon hit.
I currently have each state as a button with each state's hover mode changes.I will be changing the cityNames into buttons (they are currently MCs).Once I change the CityNames into Buttons, then modify their hover modes to look like a highlight, then I know to do the following for the URL direct:[code]One of these will go on each text cityname button. But how do I tell the button to also activate the NewYorkState_btn into hover mode?I will also need each State image button to automatically arrange to the front when they are hovered so that they will not be overlapped by other states.Also, What do I do to get each state to hover and simultaneously highlight the appropriate CityName button(s) in the list?I have included an image below (FLashMapHover.jpg) so that it is a bit more clear what I am trying to do.
How would I make a simple button that when clicked once, acts as if you'd double clicked a video file in explorer, as in it either activates your video player of choice, or plays it immediatly if it's already open.
(I know I've not worded this all that well, please say if you need me to say it more clrealy)
I have a button that plays a movie clip. that movie clip is a drop down menu. Is there a code that I can put on the button that will allow the viewer to rollover the button activate the menu and then when they roll off the "menu" part it plays the animation in revers. I made it already with very messy coding and placed a demo on this site. [URL]
I want the user to be able to drag 3 items onto a target area, which will then activate a button.All i'm after is the code rather than a complete guide
I'm trying to set a common task, wich is activate/desactivate interactivity (clickability) of a button. (sometimes clickable, sometimes not). The button is a blue bowl. I use the stopPropagation() of event metod to stop propagation, then my blue bowl is not clickable anymore. (if you erase "stopPropagation()", it becomes clickable) It works.
But I want to change this statut. I've designed a ON/OFF switcher, who set the blue bowl clickability ON/OFF. And it doesn't work. I've tried everything : removeEventListener, an "if" who write "stopPropagation()" or not, but it fails, it stay on the beggining statut. Here's the very simple .fla to show you : [URL] What should be my "ON/OFF switcher" code ?
I've created an button object in flash. The button contains 2 layers. One is the background image and on top of it is a textField. The textfield is dynamic. I use the button inside a movieclip and I export it in a SWC. The I'm trying to use it in flex.
I'm trying to do this:
var myComponent:MyComponent = new MyComponent(); myComponent.button01.theTextField.text = "Caption";
I get and instance of the button(myComponent.button01 is not null in Flex debugger), but the instance of the textField(myComponent.button01.theTextField) is null and I'm not able to change the text(but the default text appears onscreen). The code is compiled correctly in flex.
I exported the in swc the button control as well. So the button is not the default SimpleButton from Flash, but an derived class generated by flash(with the same name as the symbol defined in flash). It contains theTextField memeber, which is null.
Here is the button timeline(Layer 2 contains the textfield, and the textfield instance is named theTextField):
I am having a problem where my buttons on main timeline are working fine. When I create a button within a movieclip layer (a page importeded from Photoshop as a movieclip) the button is not working once I leave. It doesn't show as a working button when I select Enable simple buttons, when I preview or publish as HTML. The thing is, it is a button, it has an instance name, is that weird blue color... and it works fine when I am double clicked into that movieclip layer. I also tried common library buttons and they work fine until I leave that layer as well, also tried it within other layers and creating a new file and doing it... all no success!
Is it possible to trigger for example flash uploading button via javascript?For example I have made empty image wrappers and by clicking on them, they trigger flash button to open as select window.
I have been searching for this solution for some time have not found any good solid solutions. Everything I have seen is either 2 years old and does not work.
What I would like to do is use a MC in my flash file to act like a button and when clicked open the sharethis pop up to share this particular video's url. The site API docs really don't touch on Flash working with sharethis.
I want to create a kind of "flash button" in a web page. It just like the volume controller of windows operating system. When we click the button or the bar and hold it to roll down or roll up then we can change the volume. Actually, I want to use it to control the speed of switching picture in a web page. For example, intially, the images will switch from one to the other in a default speed--image/5seconds. There is a kind of slide bar just like I described above, I can roll the button to left or right to control the speed of switching.
I'll first say that I'm a Flash designer but I'm not really technically inclined which may be why I still haven't figured out how to get around the Microsoft IE 'Activate' double click problem with Flash content.I have a completely Flash site that's designed with Flash MX. All of the fixes seem to be for Flash 8 or for Flash content embedded in an HTML page. I've tried posting questions on several of the Flash sites but no one seems to be getting my question.I publish all of my pages in Flash, then upload the resulting HTML and swf files to my site. I do not write any HTML at any time. I only write actionscript. Is there a purely actionscript solution to the activate problem? Or possibly an external .js fix that can be referenced with an #include "something.js" inside the flash source file?
I don't know if this is possible, but can you have a button on one layer play a mc on another layer? I am trying to build a file where when my button is clicked, it will move the x and y axis of a movie clip on the layer below. I'm working in CS4 action script 3.0 (no drop down menu option?)
