ActionScript 2.0 :: OnRollOver On MovieClip Blocks OnRelease Events
Dec 7, 2010
I want a transparent movie clip that displays a tool tip when you roll over it. Beneath that movie clip I have other movie clips that I want to be clickable. Unfortunately having the "onRollOver" event on the top layer movie clip blocks the "onRelease" events of the lower movie clips. If I move the smaller movie clips on top it will work but I have to setup a tool tip for each of them (and it disappears and reappears when I move from one MC to another). I also thought about using the "onMouseMove" event and doing a hit test, but that seems less efficient.

Code:
mySubButton.onRollOver = function() {
getURL(this.myUrl, this.myTarget);
trace(this.buttonLabel.text+" : "+this.myURL);

i have a movieclip that is working as a button. onRollOver the moveclip goes to frame 2 where the submenu appears. Here is where the problem starts.The submenu buttons use hitTest for their animation. I want to be able to click one of the submenu items and use
[AS]
button.onRelease = function() {
getURL("Home.html","_self")
}
[/AS]
To make it link to a different site. The problem is it just doesn't seem to work.I think the problem is when I try to click on the submenu buttons, since they are nested in a movieclip that already uses onRollOver, it isn't recognizing i am clicking on the subbutton. I used onRollOver instead of a HitTest for the main buttons because if it used HitTest several popup menu's would show up at a time, so that is not a solution.
Basically, does anyone know how to make it so i can have a movieclip nested in another movieclip where the parent uses onRollOver and the sub movieclip uses OnRelease. Whenever i try to do it the sub just doesn't work.

I need a rollover function and so I changed onRelease to onRollover but the rollover effect then doesn't work.
- Script is on seperate layer (on root)
- hit_mc is the movie clip on which the rollover should work
- mask_mc is the one that should tween when mouse goes over hit_mc
hit_mc.onRollover = function() {
tweenBall(mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut);
};

My setup has several movieclips in different layers. My problem is that .onRollOver, onRollOut and .onRelease functions are still active for movieclips lying underneath. Is it possible to inactivate these functions and then activate them again when it is needed? Or how do I solve this?

i need to track the mouse movements(and register what component is under the mouse), it is done already, but i meet new problem, if click right button then context menu will be opened and no any new events(mouseMove, mouseOver) received by my components. I understand that this context menu is more browser then flash/flex and afaiu the is no way to disable context menu at all. So may be somebody know any trick to avoid this events blocking?

I need to hide my mouse and have a bullseye movie clip as a custom cursor. The problem is, I also need to click on things, and the code that I found on forums to create a custom cursor blocks the mouse from clicking on anything.
Mouse.hide();
var cursor_mc = new crosshairs();
this.parent.addChild(cursor_mc);
cursor_mc.startDrag(true);
Is there a way to do a custom cursor that acts the same way as the mouse usually does?

Is there a way to ADD onRelease method on movieclip that already has a onRelease method? Without replacing the first one.
ActionScript Code:
mc.onRelease = function(){
trace('1');
}
I was thinking this, but it doesn't work

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]

I have a movieclip that shows an animation onRollOver and an animation on RollOut but onRelease the animation enlarge itselfs but now when I'll roll out when the animation isn't open (so i didn't release) the animation plays the animation for the minimizing of the animation. Here's my code (I know its a bit amateuristic but I'm not a programmer )

I have a movieclip and i put an onRollOver call on it. The problem is the onrollover fires only once when the ouse is on top of the movieclip. In flash, how can i do something equivalent to the onmousemove in javascript?

So far I have created/hacked about some code for an infinite scrolling menu bar, and am trying to create the rollover and release actions for each menu title. After researching it seemed best that the buttons were made from movies clips as apposed to the 'button' type, but I am not sure if this is the case. The problem I am having is that I am unable to get the Contact movie clip to recognise the onPress or an onRollOver and I am not sure why. The .fla file is available here and this is the code I tried to get it to work.
Code:
_root.scrolling_mc._root.menu_mc._root.contact_mc.onPress = function () {
if(contact_mc.hitTest(_xmouse, _ymouse, true) ) {
trace("Does this button work?!");
}
I also tried:
Code:
_root.scrolling_mc._root.menu_mc._root.contact_mc.onRollOver = function () {
trace("Does this button work?!");
}
I understand I am probably on the wrong tracks with the use of _root. but I need to somehow trigger the nested movieclips.

why this will not allow button to be seen, on MouseOver it simply ignores the Actionscript.
Code:
loadThumbnails = function() {
/* Select project nodes from each section in main [i] loop */
//trace("------------------");
allProjectData = myXML.childNodes[i].childNodes;

I have a movieclip that has selectable text / scroll bar / other buttons etc - What I would like is to have an onRollOver / RollOut event to call a function on the entire movieclip, however when I do this - The entire movieclip is treated as a button and I cannot select the text nor click the scroll bar / other movieclip buttons within this movieclip. Is there a way to set the onrollover / rollout to execute a function without having the movieclip itself turn into a button / stop functioning?

I'm loading an external swf with a movieclip button, and at the same time loading a "close" movieclip on the main timeline near it to close the external swf.
All works fine except that I'd like the "close' movie clip to also remove itself on release. I can't seem to get it right.[code]...

I'm trying to remove a onRelease event for a movieclip of mine. The action is defined in the movie's class file like so:
Code:
private function onRelease():Void {
delete this.onRelease;
trace ("test");
}
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be removing the onRelease events, and whenever I click on the button it traces "test". Is there some other way to remove onRelease events when they are applied through a class? When I use the above method out of the class definition all is fine, like this:
Code:
secaoMap_mc.onRelease = function () {
delete this.onRelease;
trace ("teste");
}
