I have designed a horizontal scrolling menu that currently contains buttons that load external swfs when pressed. Works great.What I'd like to do is have the buttons open vertical drop down menus instead of loading external files.
View 0 RepliesIs there any script available to scroll a movie vertical and horizontally by adding a mask. The visible area can be scrolled vertically and horizontally.
View 3 RepliesI have created a vertical menu that scrolls through menu items in a movie clip.There is a big white gap when the movie clip runs out, and it snaps back to the beginning.I would like it to scroll seamlessly, having the end join up with the beginning again without any space.I would like it to scroll to one end of the list and STOP, and scroll back the other way and STOP - without any white space.URL...
View 1 RepliesI made a drop down menu with sub menus. It is a movie clip. When I drag my movie clip menu to the main timeline I don't know how to make the buttons manipulate the main timeline. Like going to a certain frame. Everytime I put code on the movie clip, it manipulates the movie clip itself. Is there a trick to this?
View 1 Replieschange into a horizontal menu format. Script was from kirupa forum and it is called 'flashnav' and it reads 'images.xml' . Its a great script but only if it couild me converted to display horizontally.
MovieClip.prototype.easeY = function(y){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._y = y-(y-this._y)/1.2;

Trying to get this horizontal dock menu to be vertical and not pivoting from the center. I want to have the frist item of the array (holding the menu to be at a fixed position e.g (0,0). And i want to be able to hover vertically along the y axis [code]I have attached the fla i am working on. I think i am almost there, just need some tweaks to make it 100%.
View 6 Repliesi hav found a tutorial about dragable on ur site and i played w/ it for while, however, when i tried to make it go vertical instead of horizontal it doesnt work any more...heres the code, can any1 explain to me whats wrong w/ it?

_y = _root.box._y-_root.box._height/2+_height/2 ;[code]..
I'm trying to create a Vertical scrolling xml menu. This menu is based on [URL] "Creating 3D Carousels tutorial"
This is my code
Select all
var Items:Number;
var xml:XML = new XML ();
xml.onLoad = function () {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip ("mc_Control", this.getNextHighestDepth ());
mc_Control._x = 0;
mc_Control._y = 0;
[Code] ......
My problem is when I add a new item in the xml file, I can't see it in the .swf file. My xml file have 37 items. I only see 24 buttons! in the .swf file and I' m stuck at this point my buttons have 26 px (_height).
I am working on a very minimal site that consists of a swf containing a vertical scrolling infinite menu that loads other swfs into the main timeline: [URL].I am building this in MX, and it is based on this tutorial: [URL]. I figured out how to change this to a vertical format that fit my needs. This is the actionscript I attached to the main menu movie clip:
onClipEvent (load) {
ycenter=600;
speed=1/10;
} onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var distance=_root._ymouse-ycenter;
_y+=(distance*speed);
if (_y > 0) _y=-2323;
if (_y < -2323) _y=0;
}
The swfs are sized large as the end result is a private site dealing mostly with clients using very large monitors. I am creating the swfs to be loaded in with Flash CS4, and they contain large images that have smoothing enabled. As I know nothing about Actionscript 3.0 and very little about 2.0, I am creating the main swf in MX as I am more familiar with it.
Anyway, what I need to know is:
1. How to add something to the code that will stop the timeline's scrolling where you left it when you roll off of it,
2. Any other vertical scrolling menus I can take a look at to compare this with?
this menu in this website can i change hte menu from vertical to horizontal or someone have horizontal menu with drop down sub and XML can give i can use ??
View 2 Replies- The menu scrolls to the left when mouse is over the left side of the menu (there will be an arrow pointing left), and the menu reacts in the opposite fashion when the mouse is over the right side of the menu- The menu is constantly scrolling in the left direction when the mouse is not over the left or right arrow- The menu stops scrolling (or slows down) when the mouse scrolls over any of the items in the side-scrolling menu.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create an xml accordion menu that has main menus and a sub menus buttons (movieClips) revealed with a mask. Simple question, How do I stop the mask area which reveals the sub menus catching mouseEvents on the submenus?The main menu button is a movieClip, it has the mask sprite attached to it as a property so it can scale dynamically to reveal the subMenus. They are set as children of the main menu button container. In my code I've set mainMenu.mouseChildern = true. But when the mainMenu is clicked I change mouseEnabeled = false to help prevent the main menu receiving events. This helps on rollOver rollOut events, but when I click or mouseDown on the subMenu the mask catches the event also and activates the main menu again. I've tried the obvious mask.mouseEnabled = false; mask.mouseChildern = false; mask.hitArea = null; and even setting mask.alpha = 0 but this has no effect at all.
I don't understand why the mask has to extend the hitArea property of the mainMenu and why this can't be set to null. It also seems crazy that when mouseChildren = true the parent clip also has to receive notice of the event.
When i insert the flash menu it basically dosent fit into the alloted space i gave for my horizontal navigation bar, when inserted it blows apart. the only thing i could think of was resizing the flash document but then i cant see the menu expand it gets cut off,

I'm currently learning Flash (CS4, AS3) and am creating a game. I have currently 1 flv file with 4 scenes, I then move from left to right and then to scene 2 and go from left to right. This is the game where items pop up that need to be clicked on and you get points.
Is there any way I can combine these onto 1 scene? Flash only allows you to have a maximum of 2880px wide.The reason for this is the transition between the scenes is RUBBISH and that my AS is not working correctly in between scenes (it loses values).
i want to create a menu with sub menus but i don't know what's a menu structure and how can i create it

View 2 Repliesif the mouse is under the button (outside the mask) the button still activatesis there a way I can create a shape &/or script to "mask" the EventListener much like how the graphic is masked?(the space under the buttons will eventually contain random photos)
currently the menu uses this script:addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,upyoga);

View 1 Repliesi am trying to work out how i can make a movieclip move around the stage to set/predefined positions on the stage when a button/s are clicked - an move in a horizontal or vertical direction only.
i worked out how to make an mc move around to set positions in any direction (horizontal/vertical/45 degrees etc...) but now i need to refine it to horizontal and vertical only.
I need a script that will let a user scroll a movieclip Horizontally AND Vertically. Just like a regular vertical scrollbar which u always see, it has an up arrow and down arrow. i need that, as well as a right and left arrow.i have a big image file, and i want to mask it, and let users scroll thru it up down right and left.
View 6 RepliesI went through the tutorial on the website to create a slideshow using xml linked images. My problem is I want to use it for Horizontal and Vertical pictures both.All images align at top left of the loader box making one or the other offcentered.
1.) Is there a simple way around this?
2.) Is there a way to get the xscale or yxcale to determine whether the image loading is vertical or horizontal and then based on that to have an If statement and load all Horizontal images into a one movieclip and all others(vertical) into another movieclip.
I`ve been trying this tutorial [URL] , but what I need is to make it run vertically... What i tried is to change _x with _y and xMove with yMove and if there is somewhere else X to Y (i dont remember the code) ... the result .. it didn`t work :S Is it possible to make it run vertically?

What are the common ways of creating drop-down menus for Flash with Haxe?
I've used a variety of "drop-down" menus:
drag-and-drop "combo boxes" in C# Forms
<select> in HTML
UIPickers in iOS
Now I'd like to create something similar in Flash. Note I'm not using Flex per requirements that are out my control.
I'm quite new to Flash. So far it looks like I'll extend Sprite and perhaps use some HTML/CSS for styling.
