GenerateMenu = function() {

I've made xml gallery which has simple slideshow in starting and after clicking on that its takes to the xml loaded scrolling mc which is not scrolling properly like the tuts here in Kirupa. I've following code for that
function ScrollingCollectionTimeLine(target:MovieClip, speed:Number, dir:Number) {
var mousePercent:Number = page_collections._xmouse/725;
//trace(mousePercent);

Any examples on creating the horizontal scrolling menu with dynamically attached clips? the style where if the user mouses over the right hand side of the menu it slides left, etc? There's lots of tutes out there for simple scrolling but not much that take a dynamically sized clip into consideration!
View 1 RepliesThe menu items are created dynamic out of empty movieclips and have the name movie + x. Now I'm trying to create a method that resets al the other movieclips to their original size and colour when one is pressed. The first problem is to adress the other ones. Even if I try to put the following in the script: movie[x]._alpha = 0; nothing happens..
for (x=1; x<=11; x++) {
eval("movie" + x).onRelease = function() {
var my_strNr:String = this._name

I create a mc on the root level from the library by attachMovie (box1).box1 creates a second mc from the library by attachMovie (box2).On the root level I have a button who change the color of both mcs by new Color / setRGB.But box2 will have the same color than box1, regardless which color I set to box2.Button-AS (FLA is attached):
Code:
this.onPress = function () {
// set box1 to green

View 1 RepliesI've created a XML-dynamic news box which uses a external .CSS Since my hosting is slow, when I load my movie of the news box, some of the times CSS doesn't seem to do its work -- All I see is the html code that I created in the XML file.

I was wondering if there was a way of drawing different shapes dyamically, and then somehow "join" them so that the resulting shape has only one outline, and not an outline for each shape.For examples making a random cloud with circles, and only have the outline on the cloud, and not each circle.
View 4 RepliesWhat I want is the following. Based on an XML file and one empty movie clip, I create about 80 different items (menu items). By drag and dropping these menu items you can create a scene with objects. These objects are copies of the menu items.But I want to use the attachMovie command to have control over the path of the objects. But by creating the menu items dynamically, I cannot say in the library, export for actionscript.So my question is, how can I use the attachMovie command on items that are dynamically created.
View 6 Replies My boss wanted me to make scrolling images and captions for each image when you rollover them. I made the images scroll by making each image a button and masking those images. I can't seem to get the captions right though.The dynamic text box I am using is inside the mask (because I cannot figure out how to put it on the main time line and make it work). The rollovers work when the dynamic text box is in the mask, but when I scroll through the images, the text scrolls too and some of the captions you cannot even see. The web site is below if you need to see what I am talking about.http:[url].......
I figured that what I need to do is put the dynamic text box on the main time line and not in the mask. But I can't seem to get that to work.Here is the code I am putting on the actual image buttons. My text box instance name is rOver and yes, I did embed the fonts.
on (rollOver) {
rOver.text ="caption";
}[code]..............
Is there anyway of making a scroller like the following but having dynamic text? So that it doesn't have that blur?
View 1 RepliesI have succesfully created a scrolling text field that is marked as dynamic. My problem is loading the XML text into it once I place it within a movie clip. So I have a dynamic text filed in movie clip A which is masked by movie clip B and then has a custom scroll bar attached to scroll the content. When I try to import text to place in the dynamic text field ( rather than typing the text within flash ) it doesnt show up.

View 1 RepliesI'm building an Xml-driven application. I create new states in a separate actionscript-class.These states all contain a DataGrid. I can switch the states in the Main.mxml.
But now I would like to access certain children of the DataGrid. In this case I would like to toggle the visibility of GridItems, from a Button in the Main.mxml.
How do I have access and apply this to the already created states ? I tried to create RemoveChilds and override/push it to the state.All I archieved was to remove an entire GridRow at the very last state, but it should be just one GridItem at every state.

ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property myVar1
I have tried the following but I still get an error.

What I'm trying to do is build a Dynamic XML scrolling gallery, but it's not going to be a gallery, more like scrolling images with links, that when you click on an image, it will take you to the url designated for each image in the XML.I have no experience working with AS3, so far what I've got are things I'm learning trying to build this.The issue:The issue is that when I run the script, the url designated to all the created movie clips have the same url. For example it will use first "link" on the XML on all 4 movie clips (so all the movie clips would be linked to , or it will use the last "link" in the XML for all movie clips (so all the movie clips would be linked to . How may I fix the issue above?

I have an empty dynamic text field that I attached the UIScroller component to.
Clicking on a button sends text to it, but the scrollbar doesn't register the text to make it scrollable. It just gets cut off at the bottom.
I'm trying to create a list basically with more than one selectable field and the a jpg field all aligned together a la list field but I want to be able to add a field that uses a jpg as well and I want the fields to be selectable. I dont want to select on one item in the row and all of the rest in the row get selected. Similar to what I'm trying to do is the Tilelist and the list component combined. I'm getting an array from database query.

Also been working more with AS3, but I am working on something that was designed using AS2(not by me).I have a dynamic text box populated by an external xml file. Works fine, however I am having hassles getting it to scroll. I only want buttons, and not a drag bar. Tried several methods I found around the forums but nothing seems to work for me.iam.theData.textBodybuttons are btn_up and btn_dwn. Both are located inside the ima clip.

I've got a mask on it that's 314px tall.The scroll bar will scroll all the way down to the bottom of the content, but it will not scroll all the way back up. The button will go back to its place at the top of the scroll bar, but the movie clip only scrolls back up about two thirds of the way.I don't get any errors when I test the file, and I've permitted debugging in the hopes it would find an obvious mistake to no avail.Here's the code:
