I have a MC containing a picture and a button. I have a "rollover" on my MC like, if the mouse rolls over, the MC plays.. But then, as I have a rollover command over the MC, the button in the MC seems not to be working anymore.
View 3 RepliesI'm currently working on a flashsite and are trying to figure out rollover menu buttons. The site has 6 menu buttons and are placed next to each other. I want to put a rollover action on the buttons, that when you rollover a button that the whole button image enlarges and moves in front of the other.

I have an invisible button that on rollover should play a movie clip. Within that movie clip I need it to play frame 33. However, when I use the following code it does absolutely nothing. Instance name of the movie clip is "flavorIcons"
on (rollOver) {flavorIcons.gotoandPlay(33);}
I have Macromedia Flash 8 Pro with AS2 and I was wondering if there was a function that would change the depth of a movieclip on rollover of a button.
View 1 RepliesI've got an issue - When one of my buttons is rolled over, I want text and a movieclip to appear. When the button is no longer rolled over, I want the text and movieclip to disappear. The way that I was going to do this was to have anchor_mc as an anchor, and upon rollover have the movieclip play from inside the anchor (as its at the exact X & Y that its needed at) and dynamic text appear.

A friend of mine asked me to build a web site. Since I am a graphic illustrator and that I know a lot of After Effects, he tought that that would be easy for me building his site.Well, here I am, stuck with this flash problem (I am a nuke in actionScript). The guy wants an interactive map of the best country in the world, that is, Canada.When the users mouse hovers a province, a little rollover/rollout animation plays. Actually, it took me about three weeks to make it work, but it works.Now, this is wheretrying to figure out how to trigger a movieclip with a rollover/rollout button. When the users mouse hovers an important city (in this example, Ottawa, Ontario), on rollover, it should play the movieclip box_mc up to frame 40 and on rollout, play the rest of the movieclip
View 4 RepliesOn my stage, I have a movieclip, in the movieclip (movieclip A), I have a dynamic text box and {another movieclip with buttons in it} (movieclip B). How do I rollover a button in movieclip B so that the dynamic text box in movieclip A will show a word. For example, I rollover the 'News' button and the text box will show the word 'news' I have tried
_root.(variable name) = "News"
But it does not work...
I have created a world map that has each region of the world as a rollover. When you rollover the US, for example, it turns red and a movieclip pops out to display some info...it's basically a graphic I created in Illustrator that is a rectangle with info written on it.
The rollover works fine and everything pops out, but when you move the cursor close to the popout, it thinks you have rolled off the US. When you hit the edge it pops in and out almost like it is blinking.
How can I make it so that they are one hit area? Here is some of the code:
na_mc.buttonMode=true;
setChildIndex(na_mc,0);
na_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, onButtonOver);na_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, onButtonOut);

Movieclip I want to fade out: "StartupText_mc" Within "StartupText_mc" I have a frame labels "normal" on the first frame and "over" on the last. On the actions layer I have "stop();" on the first and last frame. On the third layer I have a simple alpa tween from 100% to 0%.

Just started using MX and learning ActionScript. How to make a button rollover/rollout target another movieclip using AS. (Before I was just putting an instance of my _mc on the OVER frame of the button. The problem is, whe I went to the AS menu, I couldn't find tellTarget anywhere. Later I found out its depreciated since v.5. What can I use in MX to substitute for this wonderful function???

1) Is there an alternative way of doing the below, to avoid so many listeners?
2) Can the below functions be merged into one?I've tried merging them into one using IF statements, for example:
if(event.target.name == line1)
{
line_output.text = "This is a test made by the MonkeyTest that has previously messed up
And testing a new line";
gotoAndStop(2);
}
However this does not work, and gives an error.
3) I had to get the background to display by moving to the next frame. I could not work out how to get the textbox to appear at a specific XY, or how to get the textbox to disappear after a rollover. Is there a better way to do this, or is what I'm doing acceptable? (NOTE: Textbox is a Movieclip)

I've a main movie, for example, this movie has 3 buttons, in each button there's a MovieClip in the Over area, for example button1 contains a MovieClip with some animation, this clip has an Instance name clip1_mc, ok, untill this, everything it's ok, the effect it's easy to achieve, when I rollover my mouse over that button, the clip called clip1_mc starts to play, piece of cake, the problem is this, what happens if I call an extrenal .SWF, this .SWF contains a simple button, when I rollover this button I want to play my clip inside in my button in my main Movie, I cannot do this, I was trying with something like this:
on (rollOver) {
_parent.clip1_mc.play();
}
But this is not working.
I want to rollover a button and have it trigger the rollover state of another button. The buttons overlap. The one on top is transparent and smaller than the bottom button. So far I think I have the AS3 to handle the rollover of the top button, but I don't know how to trigger the other button's rollover state.

I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
The animation/rollover works well but it still abruptly stops when I rollover another button. The link below is an example on what I want to accomplish.

Take a look at the following sites; and notice their menus. Both have a rollover and rollout on their buttons, and when the button is hit the button stays down until another button is pressed. In the scissor sisters site, the neon bar still fades out after another has been pressed.

I am trying to achieve this myself with my own site, which you can view in progess here:
My Site
I have mastered the button rollOver and rollOut effect, in which i gathered the code from a kirupa tutorial. My problem is, getting the neon bar to stay underneath teh last button that has been pressed.The main movie is located on the main timeline in frame 2, because frame 1 contains the pre loader.
The actions for frame 2 of the main timeline are:
Code:
stop();
movieLoader.loadMovie("news.swf");
total = movieLoader.getBytesTotal();
loads = movieLoader.getBytesLoaded();
[code]....
Now the buttons are not buttons, they are movieclips, which are located on the stage, and have instance names of b1 for news, b2 for biography etc etcInside the movieclip, the animation of the neon bar fading in takes 25 frames, and this has a stop action on the end.
This code is placed on the first frame:
Code:
stop();
news.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true)
[code]....
So now my problem is to make sure that the last button clicked leaves the underline bar down until the next button is pressed.
I started working on a little page of mine, and I already ran into some trouble hehe. I'm kind of learning as I go along. Heres the script I'm having some trouble with:

I'm working on a project, and it's going OK. What I want to do is for the user to rollover a button/object, and a little pop-up box will show up, and it will have some text/photos/... Pretty routine stuff. That I can accomplish without a problem...
Now, what I want to add in there is also a hyperlink that will open a Web page in a new window. And that's where I get stuck. It won't let me.
I assume it's because part of the rollover thing in the button symbol. That's how I'm doing it so far.
So, is there anything I can do going that route, or do I need to take another approach?
I'm thinking the other option would be to create a movie clip, which would hold the pop-up box and the photos and the like, then make a button within that which would hold the hyperlink. Then, I could create an object right on the timeline with a rollOver that would trigger the movie-clip instance.

Im having a problem getting a Rollover to work. I have a picture with an opaque box over it and when you scroll over the opaque box i want it to tween out and the picture become a clickable area...then when you roll off the opaque box returns to it original position. I can get the box to move...but i think i have too many event listeners and its looping. this is the effect im going for.
