Flash :: Find The Parent Of A Deep-nested Sprite From The Stage?
Jan 21, 2011I'll give a complete explanation of what I'm trying to do. I have a video player as a separate SWF. In this video player I have a VideoContainer class extending Sprite, which contains the video and a control bar with specific video buttons.
This SWF is loaded in another main SWF, which has a menu that is on top of everything else. When I click "Fullscreen" in the video SWF, everything goes smoothly, except the menu remains on top of the VideoContainer object.
I need a way to change the display order of the loaded SWF, to put it on top of everything else on Fullscreen and change it back when Fullscreen goes off. All this needs to be made inside the video player. Also, the configuration of the children can change (the video player can be loaded in different places in the main SWF), so I can't use a certain unchanging path.
Url :: Convention For A Client-side (Flash) Deep Link Path Separator?
Sep 21, 2010I see examples in the SWFAddress documentation, but it's not clear what the convention should be for a multi-level path. Do their examples intend to suggest that the path separator should be a hyphen?

Jun 17, 2010I have my test site at alenelias.com/home2.html and I'm using an old AS2 class for the buttons to do the up, over, hover, selected states.When you click the back button on the browser, the selected state doesn't change and I can't figure out how to fix this and it is the most important problem here.The title of the pages has the forward slashes as well and tried to change it with no luck.And third if I keep clicking back, once I reach the intro page (loader in a different scene), if I press forward, the url changes but the page does not. Not a huge deal but would love to solve that as well.I recently looked at a form (blog.deconcept.com/2006/10/25/swfaddress/) and noticed this url spirituc.com which is very similar to my site but has the problem(s) fixed.URL...

Feb 27, 2012I have a "wrapper swf" that loads a remote flash player that in turn loads video preroll ads from various advertisers. So my wrapper is the parent and the remote swf is a child and the video ad is a grandchild. I am looking to capture the url that the grandchild will navigate to when clicked. I am trying to trace it in the parent (wrapper) mouseUP and mouseDOwn event.
Is there a way to traverse ALL children until I get to the "bottom/last loaded" swf and get the URL? I wish to save the url to a variable so I can launch the url in another player of my own as opposed to having it launch an external IE browser.

Flex :: 4 - Trigger The Back Browser Button From A Flex App With Deep Linking?
Nov 2, 2010How can I programmatically click the browser's Back button from within my Flex application. I'm using deep linking to allow the user to navigate back/forth inside my application. I want this to work when BACKSPACE is clicked inside the application as well, but Flex captures BACKSPACE and the browser doesn't get the event. I don't want to implement browsing history myself within the application, naturally. Can I send BACKSPACE to the containing browser?

Dec 17, 2009i created my subMenu buttons fine, however i only know how to link them to a picture/url address, my goal is to have the user click the subMenu button and open the image or page right below the menu bar in the "stage" area of flash. I read about IFrames but i'd rather create the whole site in flash .Here is the code for my subMenu...
btn_34th.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("images/34th.jpg"));
trace("I'm Clicked!");
Again, this works fine, i just want to have the image take up the "white" space on the stage area, very similar to an IFrame.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting A Button To Link To Mailto Link?
Mar 26, 2009I've trawled the web, everyone with different ideas on how to call up a mailto link in AS3. What I'm looking for is this: I have a box, that is coverted to a button symbol given the name 'mailto'I have another layer for the actionscript I have imported 'flash.net.navigateToURL' and 'flash.net.URLRequest'
I know I need to create a function or a variable to link in the already created button. Do I also need to import the MouseEvents?
I created this FLA to get used to CS4 (i was previously using8)Everything works wonderfully, I would just like to know how to use AS3 properly, without having to call defeat and create the FLA again using AS2.
Flex :: Datagridview - Array Objects And Datagrid With Link Button (Clear Button) In Adobe?
Jun 21, 2009I have an an array of objects. I populate the datagrid from the array. The nmber of columns in the datagrid is fix i.e.5 and the first column always shows serial number (0,1,2,3,4). I have a link button called 'CLEAR' in the last column of the datagrid.
1> How do I make the clear button visible only when the row is particularly clicked 2> When the clear button is clicked, how do I make the contents of that particular row cleared. Not deleted, only cleared to insert data again. Also, the serial number (0,1,2,3,4) should not be cleared, nor deleted. How to do this ?

View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Using Hittest With Nested Button/mc?
Feb 4, 2009I have a movieclip ('A') which contains a button symbol with only a hit state (invisible button).
when you roll over this invisible button, an .flv starts playing and when you roll off, the .flv stops playing.
Now, i want to add a button above the invisible button (still within the movieclip 'A') so i can add a link. The problem is that this button's hit area will conflict with the invisible button.
in other words, rolling onto this new button will mean rolling off of the original invisible button and the .flv will stop playing (i want it to keep playing).
I'd like to use a conditional with hitTest to check if the mouse is over this second button when the .onRollOut is triggered on the first button OR just use hitTest to determine if i'm still within the bounds of the first, invisible button (it's the same dimensions as the clip containing the 2nd button)
the way i'm attempting it isn't correct or it'd be working i imagine:
Code:
function out()
{
if (! 2ndButton.hitTest( _root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false))
{

Actionscript 3.0 :: Referencing MC From Nested Button
Dec 4, 2009I am working on a tool for use in our office which creates XML. At this point I am working on getting an error message to appear when the user enters incorrect data in one of the textfields. I have a MC which contains my error message as well as a button. The button will move the MC back off of the stage. Everything works up to the point where I click the nested button. I suspect there is a problem in referencing the parent MC from the button.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Nested MovieClip As Button?
May 14, 2009I am trying to design a menu system that pops up which I have just about managed. however nested in the menu movie clip are a number of other movie clips which I want to use as buttons but I am having problems getting the movie clips to load a swf once clicked. I tried putting a button in side the menu movie clip and it would not even recognize the mouse over which makes me think you can not nest buttons or movie clips in another movies clip?
Here is the code

ActionScript 3.0 :: Button Functionality With Nested MC's?
Aug 13, 2009I am trying to get this drop-down menu to work, I've followed several video tutorials and have pieced this together, but I am FAR from REALLY knowing what I am doing...The trace function shows the NavBar_mc is working, but I don't understand how to get the eventListener to goToAnd Play a frame label on the main timeline.

but get the following error when i compile: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.also, there are many buttons within navbar_mc, how can i make an elegant switch statement function (in the DocumetnClass) for all of them. To reiterate, with an eventListener for each button, how do i reference the correct one from a single function, in this case clickHandler?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Nested Mc Button Doesn't Respond?

The buttons activate movie clips with tweens. I wonder why the buttons need to be clicked several times before I see the tween movie clips appear. Some times the movie doesn't even show up. Is it a script problem or something else?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Nested Button Inside MovieClips?
Sep 22, 2004I am sure I must be doing something very stupid but here goes:This is for a navigation bar.
- I have a main movie (mcMenu) on my stage which holds all the main buttons (btnHome, btnAbout, etc..).
- Inside mcMenu, when I roll over say btnAbout, the movie plays from 10 to 20th frames during which time a submenu fades into view.
- Inside this submenu, I have the sub-section buttons. It is these buttons that I am having problems with. Basically, I can't get them to respond to onRelease events.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Why Nested Button Will Not Move Its Parent
Jan 22, 2007I have 2 child movieclips nested into one working parent movieclip, then the parent movieclip is animated. The nested working parent movieclip should move to the side once a child movieclip is clicked. Currently, the parent is unaffected by clicking on a child movieclip. What gives?
Below is a layout of the movieclip:
Button List Box
| |
v v
Subparent(groups btn and list box)
|
v
Parent(animated)
I need the parent to animate once the child Button is clicked.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Nested Button Work If Placed On Frame 1
May 19, 2007I have a MC on my stage that has 2 buttons nested inside. So, the problem is that I have a stop(); actions on the first frame ( first frame is blank ) and I only play the movie once someone rolled over another button outside this MC. Because I'm giving the instructions to my buttons from the timeline. I have all the code on a frame and am calling the buttons from there but it seems that the buttons won't work properly if they are not placed on the first frame.
Example:
_root.myMC.otherMC.myButton.onRelease = function(){
getURL("[URL]","_self");
}
That simple thing won't work if the button are placed the way they are now, it seems that flash can see the button only if they are at frame 1... and no, I don't want to put the code directly on the button, I want to make it work this way.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Targeting Button Nested In Another MovieClip
Feb 27, 2008I built a button, but as a movie clip. It's nested with in another movie clip on the main timeline. How do I go about targeting the button?- when I have it on the main timeline, it works fine. But once it's nested. The action script can't find it.
Here is the code I'm using:
btn1.onRollOver = function () {
this.gotoAndPlay("in");
} btn1.onRollOut = function () {
this.gotoAndPlay("out")
}

Jul 9, 2009I have setup a video interface with a stock video player in the parent mc. In the same swf next to the player, I have a mc which is a video thumbnail chooser. The thumbnail buttons are located two levels down within this mc (nested within two mc) in order to facilitate the scrolling independent of the player. In the parent, where the video player lives, I placed a function:
function vid1(event:MouseEvent): void{
pubPlayer.source = 'Steve480.flv';
}
In the child mc where the thumbnail buttons are, I want to call the parent function like this:
vid1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vid1);
None of my clips are externally loaded, just nested in the same swf. How can I talk up or down the movieclip ladder?
