A slider recognises both mouse position and also the buttons (left and right and also the buttons at the bottom) and glides/sides to the correct position area on click of the button.
View 8 RepliesIn my flash application I want to slide a button on the y-axis of a kind of thermometer, but I want to establish fixed slider positions so you can only move the slider up and down from fixed position to fixed position.
I already use this bit of code with startDrag and stopDrag behaviours:
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag ("_root.schuif",true ,245 ,190 ,245 , 480)
var h

I have made a colouring application. The mouse changes to a brush when the user enters a page, but I dont know how to change the brush back to a mouse when the mouse is outside the colouring canvas,so the user can click on the navigation buttons.
View 1 RepliesI have a fisheye menu, (by the very talented David Manrique, check out his tutorial and source here: [URL] It uses an array of images imported into a library. The code to recognize mouse clicks is working, but I can't get it to load up specific frames of the Flash file. So, for example, when "image1" is clicked, it would load up frame 2 of the flash file. When "image2" is clicked, it would load up frame3...etc.

I need to do one thing, the target movieclip (one hurricane), keep xscale and yscale going down. if mouse shake (mouse move more than 20 pixel, than last check of time) the target movieclip growing up, else the hurricane keep going down.

I have a text movieclip (service_mc) on the stage for which I need to control 4 different _xpositions (_x = 0, _x = -700, _x = -1400, x = -2100) with 4 button mc's (btn_one, btn_two, btn_three, btn_four).
For these four buttons I already declared the Over, Out, Release and Restore stage in a function:

What I like to accomplish is to control the _x positions of "service_mc" with the same buttons. I mean when btn_one is pressed service_mc should go to _x = 0, when btn_two is pressed the _x position from service_mc should change to _x = -700 etc, etc
How to integrate this possibility in the existing function?
I have 6 buttons aligned horizontally. When I press one button, I want all of the buttons to move to different _X positions with easing that would be specified in an array or in a variable. I'm looking for the easiest code. I had the code and a fla. for this a few years ago when I was deep into Flash, mastering actionscript. Now, it's like starting over.
Also, can anyone assist me with a similar, more advanced code? It's the same as above, but when one presses a button, that button pressed would move to a specified _X position, and the button that was previously in that _X position would get back in line, to the far left of all the buttons...

I have thumbs placed on the stage. I create an empty mc to load swf. But my thumbs disappear from the stage when I test the movie ( html or swf) if I settle the _ and _y position of the empty mc.why the emptymovieclip positions affect the positions of my thumbnails?
View 2 RepliesI just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?

I built a slider that has two identical horizontal MC's nested end to end inside another MC so when you move the mouse left and right over the MC it slides right and left in an endless loop. My problem is that to stop the slider from moving, the mouse must be in the exact center of the MC and if a person moves off the slider somewhere to one side or the other, it keeps sliding. What I would like to do is set it up so that wherever the slider is when the mouse moves off of it, it simply stops moving. I was thinking maybe an _y parameter would do it (the MC is 18 px high) but I'm not sure how to code this.
Here's what I'm working with:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
xcenter = 467.5;
speed = 1/15;

Does anyone have any tutorials on controlling a custom slider with buttons. For example I have a horizontal slider that I can slide with the thumb, now I want a button on each side that will move the thumb back and forth along the slider bar. I will also use this technique create buttons to make the slider go to various positions (i.e. 80%, 60%, etc.)here is the code I have added to try to make this happen, but the slider does not move when clicking the buttons.[code]
View 0 RepliesHow would I be able to make this "slide" between the images, rather than just switching them with buttons? It's a landscape that changes with each click (img 2 alpha fades over image 1 on click), but it's kinda clunky. I guess I'm asking if theres a way to build a slider that controls the alphas in AS, so it can go forward And backward on slide...
View 9 RepliesI want to use the mouse wheel to set the value of a VSlider. By default, the slider performs this automatically. My only concern is the step interval if the mouse wheel is used. It set the properties "snapInterval" and "stepsize" to 1. But if I use the mouse wheel, the next value is always +/- 3 .
How can I set this behavior to +/-1?
Here is the code to create the slider:
Code:
sliceSlider2 = new VSlider();
sliceSlider2.dataTipPrecision = 0;
sliceSlider2.minimum = 1;

As stated in the title, I am now trying to create a chart using Google visualization: annotated time line. It's very easy to use and the documentation is fairly easy to understand as well. You can find the documentation here.I run into a problem about the wmode of the chart which is a flash object.The default value of the chart's wmode is "window" and it will always overlay all HTML objects in the same page. That is very annoying, because even the jquery block() method doesn't work on it.
When I change the chart's wmode into "opaque" or "transparent" the chart will not overlay HTML objects with higher z-index, but it doesn't recognize the mouse scroll event. It still catch the mouse click event though.I have tried it in the following browser:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9.2.12) Gecko/20101026 Firefox/3.6.12 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 5.2; U; en) Presto/2.7.62 Version/11.00
Safari 4.0.5 (531.22.7)
IE 7.0.5730.13
Only the IE can catch the mouse scroll even, the others couldn't recognize it.
I am trying to save time by opening the source file and changing it to support my pictures/etc. instead of starting from scratch. So my question is: How do I create more than 4 buttons? I have attached a picture scrn shot if what I see when i press F9// "actions" panel.. I think the problem is when I create a new button, in this case, button 5, it does not carry over to be a subdirectory under the Scene 1 > Actions things on the bottom left... I've tried converting a rectangle on the buttons layer to a button symbol, and adding the appropriate code to it, but to no avail.. When I Ctrl+Enter to preview it, the slider moves 4 spaces but when I hover over the newly created 5th button the slider just moves back to

I have been trying to find a way to make my flash slider bar work with the mouse wheel, but can't find how to integrate with the code I already have.
ActionScript Code:
scrolling = function () {
var scrollHeight:Number = scrollTrack._height;
var contentHeight:Number = contentMain._height;
var scrollFaceHeight:Number = scrollFace._height;
var maskHeight:Number = maskedView._height;

I am trying to add action script 2.0 to a slider that i created using http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/slider.htm that slides a movie clip that is a timeline from left to right. In the timeline are (i)More... buttons that will reveal more information. I just need to know how to integrate the timeline into the code using as2 to make it slide when the slider is dragged..
This is the action script that I have on the slider movie clip as stated in the above tutorial. But this is ALL the action script I have on EVERYTHING..... I know I need more to make it pan the timeline but I dont know how to do it.

I really could just use a good tutorial that shows me how to link the image that im sliding to the slider bar. When the slider is moved to the right... the image flows left.... toward the end of the timeline. When the slider is all the way right. The end of the timeline is shown. The timeline is bigger than the stage so the slider is on a line with years on it.

Any reason my slider bar would be moving on its own after you scroll over a couple of the hover buttons?
I am using Flex Spark Slider as a time-line for a Flex video player custom component I have created.
I want to prevent the user from clicking on the slider and changing its value, but at the same time I should be able to change the value of the slider programmatically.
Setting the "enabled" property for the slider to "false" doesn't help as then I am not able to change the slider value programmatically.
The slider thumbs in my Flex 3 application usually work correctly, but often they seem to become insensitive to mouse downs on what should be thumbPress events. It turns out that mouseOut events are being fired as the mouse moves away from the edge of the thumb towards the center. The thumb is sensitive to mouseDown events only when it is in the "over" state.
I am seeing the same behavior: Displaying the default thumb rather than my custom class Using a hitArea sprite (I tried a child TextInput sized to cover the thumb with alpha 0). Can anyone suggest either a fix or a workaround? I can identify the faulty mouse out events, but then don't know how to compensate, for example, by reestablishing the "over" state, or perhaps with programmatic control of the mouse.
I created a graphic to simulate a volume slider. Its working, but i want a movieclip graphic (vol_switch) to follow the mask. It is only following it after i release the mouse. i cannot figure out how to have it follow on the mouse drag without taking precedence over the mask and disabling that. I tried the code in bold, but not working.

The title pretty much sums up what I am trying to do: I haven't started digging into using script in Flash yet, still being very much a beginner.
I created a simple file using movie clips nested in buttons so that when I mouseover a letter, it bobs up and down, but I can't work out how to make it return to its original "up" state *smoothly* when the mouse is moved away. If it must involve script please be aware I am a total noob!
