ActionScript 2.0 :: Prevent Click Events Without Disabling Buttons (enabled=false)?
Jul 16, 2008
I am wondering how can one stop the user from clicking on a button (MC) without using btn.enabled = false.example: i have a menu that has buttons which have tweens on rollover and onRelease events. I want to be able to click on home for e.g. disabling all other buttons to avoid user clicking but still keep the rollover. I have tried btn.enabled = false and of course i dont want to disable the entire btn and instead i want to disable just the onRelease event or even avoid the mouse from clicking until the animation finish. Only Then, user can click on another menu button.

I've created a gallery to play some FLV videos and after getting the thumbnail buttons to go and play on specific frame labels, I now need to disable the button that was clicked and have it re enabled when I click on a different button. Here is my code so far:
stop();
btn01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
btn03.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);

Got a button (imported png defined as a button in the library).The button is dragged onto the stage, given an instance name "btn".Clicking the button fires an eventListener which is doing all the right things, except...
btn.enabled = false;
...only changes the cursor from a pointing finger to an arrow. What?! It is still clickable.My intention is to disable the button so it cannot be clicked. But it can still be clicked. Not good.How do I disable a button and prevent it from being clicked?

I have a Spark Component (a Group) which doesn't behave as wanted.The tooltip is only shown when the component is enabled=true which the following example shows:
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"[code]/....
In the Halo component the toolTip is shown. And this is, what I want to achieve.In my case I want to try something like this:
<s:Group toolTip="{cartEntries > 0 ? 'great!' : 'go and buy!'}"></s:Group>

I tried the following code and it works great.
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("main.swf", 1);
main.enabled = false;
}
How would I go about resetting the the button's status after another movie is loaded? Do I have to manually code for each movie loaded or is there an easier way using loops perhaps?

Banner ads have buttons that ad serving systems use the following syntax to dynamically assign a URL.[code]The clicktag button covers the stage (ad size) and prevents other mouse events like panning. Are there any hacks to get around this? I have a FLA that uses the following AS but the mandatory click tage button disables it the panning functionality.[code]

-Alright so I have made a next, and a prev button. That navigate the timeline inside an mc "tabs_mc." This mc ison the the main stage.-When the next and prev buttons are pressed they goto 1 of 4 frame labels on this timeline inside tabs_mc.-When one of these lables is reached an mc "thumbs" appears on the screen / stage.-These mc's "thumbs1, thumbs2, thumbs3, and thumbs4" contain buttons that SHOULD be clickable.-But are not after the prev, and next buttons are press. They are before the next, and prev button are press, but not after.
way this is or even better how to keep these buttons enabled after the next, prev buttons are clicked?I thought of making some sort of boolean to tell the each button that is needs to stay "true" after prev, and next are pressed.But I'm a beginner so I don't know where to start.Heres the next, and prev button code:
HTML Code:
//Button Listeners
/////next_mc.buttonMode = true;

I have an AdvancedDataGrid for which I would like to allow multiple selection. Do to several constraints, I want to disallow selecting items that are next to each other (Basically, you can't select multiple items with the same parent and parents are handled differently from children). My preference would be to stop event propagation when the shift modifier is present on the mouseDown or click event. I tried using event.stopImmediatePropagation(), but the selection has already occurred (I tried stopping mouseDown, click, itemClick, and change).
I am guessing I will need to extend the ADG and override some functions. Does anyone have any ideas to stop this before it modifies the selectedItems array without having to create my own ADG class? Or can anyone point me in the right direction (read: which functions do I need to override in ADG) if I do need to extend ADG?

Just wanted to ask if there is any advantage for either using mouse click event or touch tap events, when writing apps for mobiles or tablets (for the iphone especially)?
I know that both of them should work fine, but in term of performance, is anyone better? Are there any things I should be aware of when choosing either?
By the way am using actionscript3 to implement the app.

I've got an idea for a game I'm making that makes use of both mouse buttons, but the pesky right click menu always gets in the way. I've been doing some research, and I've heard tell of some "authorware" programs that disable the menu? I've also heard that disabling the right click menu voids some kind of warranty.

i have a movie with this button which disables it upon loading of external .swf file:
on(release) {
loadMovieNum ("lg_01.swf", 2);
i1.enabled = false;
}
the site in progress: [URL]..How do i tell said .swf file to re-enable the "i1" instance from the original .swf file it loaded into? I guess where I'm getting lost is how to tell one .swf to affect another.
I think if i knew this little tidbit, I would most definitely be able to have more control over my sites.
I'm a self-taught novice actionscripter and obviously don't know enough to do something as simple as this.

I have this movieclip with buttons residing in the main timeline. This movieclip is set with an _alpha = 0. How do I disabled this movieclip/buttons in the main timeline as well? The movieclip will be visible only if another button(not within this movieclip) is pressed. I tried using the following but it doesn't work. movieclipInstanceName.enabled = false; How do I go about doing it?

I'm building a site at the mo with pop up that can be activated and covers the main page with a new info page. This popup can be activated at anytime and will cover whatever is in the main page. Trouble is, buttons are still active from the main page when popup is displayed and given the site design the only way to stop this problem is disabling the buttons below. What is a good way of doing this? I was hoping flash keeps some sort of array of mc content and the buttons could be identifed this way but somehow i don't think this is likely!

I have a few swf's that are loaded into a base file using levels. These clips can be cycled through by means of a setInterval function or when the user clicks the next or previous button. However, when the user hovers over a defined 'hit' area which is ultimately a blank movie clip, the setTimeout call is then canceled. This works fine, except that now the 'hit' clip - being above everything - prevents the movies below accepting hit states, and if I move it to below everything else, when one mouses over any element in the loaded movie, it then acts as though the user has mouse out of the hit area.
Is there any way to have this 'hit' clip do its job simply by determining if the mouse is over it, but without using an onRollOver function or equivalent?

I am having trouble with my buttons, they work perfectly,do what they are supposed to do. I am using this code for my buttons:
Code:
choco1.visited = false;
choco1.onRollOver = function()[code]....
When you click on the movie clip it goes to another frame and an animation plays: THE PROBLEM: When it goes to the animation frame after clicking the button, you are still able to click the button even though the buttons are behind the animation that is playing...how would i go about disabling the buttons while it is on the animation frame but also keep the visited state of the button clicked?

I've created a sliding menu that has a left button and a right button. Each button slides a background movieclip to the left or right. The background mc eases into position when one of the buttons is clicked. Problem is that buttons can still be clicked while the mc is easing into position. This throws off my x coordinate positioning of the mc. I've tried disabling the buttons and enabling them again at a few different points in my code. I've also tried using a time delay to enable the buttons but my logic isn't working. I've stripped the code that was not working out.
