ActionScript 2.0 :: MovieClip Menu With Buttons And Text

May 16, 2004

My menu has 3 movieclip buttons, with text. I broke apart the text to change the color onMouseOver. Problem is the button only works when the mouse is pointed over the actual text, so it doesn't work properly, because the text is obviously very small. I can't put a "field" behind it, because it will become part of the MC, and thus will change color. Here's the example: [URL]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Menu With Three Movieclip Buttons On A Main Menu?

Nov 12, 2008

I am looking at creating a menu with three movieclip buttons on a main menu. I want to keep these buttons on the top of the screen at all times. I am opening different swf's and I want to make sure that the buttons are still showing. I know there is something with changing or swapping the depth of the movie clip when it loads the new swf's in, but I have not found anything that is seeming to work.

Oct 21, 2005

I'm creating a menu bar that is a movieclip and inside the movieclip consists of the buttons.Now the menu bar is twice as WIDE as what is visible on the stage.The only part you can see is the text 'menu' on a bar.Then when the mouse hits the bar, it flies across the screen to the otherside of the bar where the menu buttons are.Now the menu bar does its animation over 20 frames - the last frame being the frame where the menu buttons are now visible.

On the last frame i have the 'stop;' code

On the first frame I have this code:

Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){

ActionScript 2.0 :: Building Menu Of Buttons With Dynamic Text On Top

Sep 17, 2004

I have managed to get data out from Mysql database. All it returns to me are:
1) Name of the button
2) Where it link to
3) Number of Buttons for the menu

So now, how can I build a menu of buttons such that I can display according to the database return on the number of buttons? I have already create a movieclip which is the image of a single button. With dynamic text on top of the button in the movieclip.

I just need to loop it thru the number of buttons and display the buttons on screen. But I can't seems to get it right. I have looked through the XML dynamic menu but it's not very similar to mine as I'm using PHP script to connect to the database.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons Within Movie Clip - Sub-menu Won't Stay Open In Order To Click On Buttons In It

Jul 25, 2007

I am creating a navigation bar in Flash (which will then be used in Dreamweaver). When you mouse over each topic in menu (ex. Products), i want it play a movie clip (so it shoots out a sub-menu underneath). so far so good, but the only thing is, the sub-menu won't stay open in order for me to click on buttons in it. For each button, I assigned it the Behavior to go to a url. Also, I tested the buttons within the mc and they don't seem to direct me to url. do you think maybe it's because it's nested within the movie clip?? Is there an easier way to go about this?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Make A Menu That Has OnRelease Buttons On Top Of OnRollover Buttons

Mar 20, 2011

I'm trying to make a menu that has onRelease buttons on top of onRollover buttons (the onReleases are on a separate layer from the onRollovers). The onRelease buttons take the user to different urls, and the onRollover buttons are supposed to allow different parts of the menu to appear.

The onRelease buttons work fine, but I can't get the onRollover buttons to work consistently. Sometimes the onRollover buttons will correctly advance to a different frame, and sometimes they "stick" and do not advance. The script has no errors and I've tried changing the sizes of the onRollover buttons (in case they were too large and the cursor was hovering over more than 1 at the same time), changing the order of the code for the onRelease and onRollover commands (in case the onRollovers were being superseded by the onRelease commands), and countless variations of the layers and frames.

I'm sure that you'll want to see the script, but I don't think that pasting it all on this post would be reasonable? So I've put the .fla and the .swf on this page for reference: [URL]

ActionScript 1/2 :: Buttons And Dropdown Menu - Roll Be Able To Select Anything From The Dropdown Menu?

May 7, 2009

I'm creating a webpage, and I have made some buttons.Image 1 is the homepage, which is frame 1 in Flash.Image 2 shows that when I rollover the button "Portfolio,"I get a dropdown menu.I have this set as frame 3 in Flash.Image 3 shows that I've gone down the dropdown menu and rolled over "Photography." But if I rollout of any of the things from the dropdown menu, it stays at Image 2 (Frame 3)with the dropdown menu visible. Which is a problem...I want to be able to rollout of these buttons to revert back to the homepage, Image 1 (Frame 1).But, for instance, telling "Graphic Design" to go to Frame 1 on rollout means that if I try to go below "Graphic Design" to "Photography," I've rolled out--and so the rest of the menu disappears.So I want to roll be able to select anything from the dropdown menu, and only rollout to Frame 1 if I go outside the entire dropdown menu, not just one button.

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Add New Buttons In Menu

Nov 15, 2005

I have an FLA that I want to use for a menu I'm making. Currently, the menu is designed for 4 buttons and it has an indicator that slides along under the buttons to show which button the user is on. My menu needs to have 6 buttons. It should be very simple to add 2 more buttons to this piece, but every time add new buttons, the indicator slides way off to the left when I roll over the new buttons I've added, instead of sliding under them like it does with the original buttons. I've attached the original FLA. How to add new buttons without having this problem?

Drop Down Menu Transparent Buttons

Jul 1, 2010

I have followed a video guide on how to make a drop down menu in Flash CS4 ( AS3) with a few modifications. Instead of dropping down, it appears to the left of the "button" and it's a fade in fade out effect.And instead of text in the buttons, I've put in .png's. One png for normal button, another png for mouseover.The problem is that when I put the mouse on the original button ( the one meant to activate the menu) it activates the menu, but when I try to put the mouse on the menu, the menu dissapears.I've tried putting the layers in different orders but it didn't work.[code]

ActionScript 1/2 :: Menu Buttons Not Disappearing?

May 29, 2009

I have knowledge of HTML but this is my first flash project, and I think I'm way over my head. I followed a tutorial explaining how to make menu buttons and I realized that the actionscript for a drop down menu should work for what I'm trying to do.  So I finally have everything the way I want it but I'm pretty sure I have a bit of wasted code in there.  Now, my issue is when I play my flash and move my mouse really fast over the flash object sometimes two menu buttons appear. I'm sure it is because of the ._alpha > 0 code I'm using but I dont know another way around it. If you have any advice PLEASE share!! Here is a link to the swf file...http:[url]....
 
This is the code (for two buttons) I use to make something disappear when I RollOver another button:
 
calplate_btn.onRollOver = function () { if(scan_large._x > startX) {  myTweenB.stop();  myTween2.stop();  scan_large.enabled = false  scan_large._alpha = 0  scan_large._x = startX }  if(scan_large._alpha > 0 ) {  myTweenB.stop();  myTween2.stop();  scan_large.enabled = false  scan_large._alpha = 0  scan_large._x = startX }[code].......

Buttons - Making A Drop Down Menu?

Sep 2, 2009

I am attempting to revamp a website. The buttons that are currently being used are only gifs that are hyperlinked and there are almost 12 buttons... I think that this is a ridiculous amount of buttons to have. It looks very cluttered. So, I figured I should make 6 buttons and just fit the rest of the buttons into subcategorized buttons. And the way to do this is to create flash buttons with drop down menus. To see what I mean, go to this link and look at their buttons:
 
[URL]
 
Their buttons drop down into menus with sub-categories. I want to do this.
 
So far, I have gone into flash, created buttons and made graphics for the "Up" "Over" "Down" and "Hit". I have also added the menu buttons and graphics for the "Over" of each drop-down button-menu.
 
I have even provided the action script to link each button to where I need it to go.
 
HOWEVER, here is where the problem is. When I roll the mouse over the button, and then move the mouse down to click on one of the buttons in the drop down menu, the menu disappears, OF COURSE, because the mouse goes off the hit. I can't make the hit bigger, because the menu shouldn't open unless it's on the main button. But without the hit being bigger, the menu will always disappear.

IN ADDITION, I've never used flash buttons on a website before. I'm just using HTML. How do I link the button to the page? Do I save the file as a .swf flash file? And link to 6 different files? Or do I save the buttons in a line, and just use one link?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Slide Down Menu With Buttons

Jan 28, 2009

I can't seem to find a clear explanation specifically relating to forwards/backwards tween with buttons.

I have a menu bar that I want to slide down, on Rollover and slide up, on Rollout... and have buttons on it/or appear on it.

So if someone wanted to navigate around the movie they would move their mouse to the top right, a bar would slide down and then they could access the buttons on it. However if the mouse is rolled off at any time the bar slides back up.

I've managed to get the bar sliding up and down but my problem is with the buttons. When the mouse rolls over the buttons that have loaded in front of the menu bar, the bar flickers... I guess because the menu bar can't see that the mouse is still rolledover, when the mouse is over the button in front of it.

I was thinking that the code could tell the MC containing the menu bar to pause when the buttons are rolled over - but I may be barking up the wrong tree.

I've attached my fla/swf to show the simple example of where I'm up to.. it may have been overcomplicated by my attempts to load the buttons on frames of the tween.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keep Focus On Menu Buttons?

Oct 24, 2011

I have a menu which consists of several buttons held with a movieclip (menu_mc) on the stage. You can select a menu option with a mouse click. However, I need to be able to use the keyboard too.

So I've set an keyboard eventlistener and that works, but only if the mouse has clicked on the main stage area first.

If I click on the menu_mc movie clip (for example selecting a menu option with the mouse) then the keyboard eventlistener doesn't work (presumably it's taken the focus off the stage?)

I think this is to do with the focus - so how do I keep the focus on the stage.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons In RollOver Menu?

Mar 13, 2005

I'm trying to create a menu, where some buttons becomes visible when the user "rollOver" a box the buttons is beneath. Look at http:[url]... menu system, at the main page.I place my buttons within a MC, and gives the MC this AS:

[AS]onClipEvent (load){
change = false;
}[code]....

But when I move the mouse over the buttons, they aren't enabled, probably because flash got the idea that the MC is above the buttons, and that the MC is a button.

ActionScript 2.0 :: The Text Buttons Should On Rollover Move All Buttons To The Left

Oct 22, 2010

I'm creating a menu system, the text buttons should, on rollover, move all buttons to the left (of the button currently rolled over) 100 pixels, in the gap created a sub menu running vertically will appear which will break into a 2nd horizontal submenu etc. I'm still in the early stages, and have hit a stumbling block, I placed a trace (this); cmd in root of the roll over function then again in each segement of the IF/ELSE loop inside that fuction. The trace CMD in the root of the rollover gives me the feed back _level0.btn1 or 2 or what ever button I have rolled over but the ones inside the IF/ELSE loop all say _level0.btn0 regardless of the button I roll over!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reusable Buttons / Menu Items?

Jun 16, 2009

A good button should have all the available out, over and down states, and often there are a bunch of nice to haves such as animation, disabled states, filters, you name it. I seem to change my mind in each project I do. The last one, I reskinned and extended the Button Component. The project before I extended SimpleButton Before that I built my own custom class using a Sprite and TweenLite. Then of course you need to work out if you will use library items which is great for laying out on stage, or do everything from scratch using code, which is more powerful but crap for design. I haven't looked at the swc or component route myself.
