If you have a look at the attached sliding menu there are four buttons. Each button brings an image in place. I want the button that�s been clicked to remain red until I hit a different button, even when the cursor is not right in front.

View 3 RepliesI decided to post this question as a new thread since my enquiry is altered.
I got this sliding menu attached ("ActiveButtons.zip") that works according to plan. My problem is that I want the buttons to stay active(red) while the corresponding image is in place. Is this doable with a button?
when I load a movie in a container in the main swf, the buttons below the loaded movie stay interactive and conflict with the loaded movie. is there a way to get around this,deactivating or pausing the main movie so when you load a movie in the container, the main movie doesnt interfere with the loaded one?
View 2 RepliesI 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?

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.
View 5 RepliesI'm currently working on an AS3 scripted drop down menu and for the most part it works exactly like I had envisioned with one small hiccup. The issue I have is if you accidentally navigate away from a button that creates one of my drop downs before the script has finished running the other drop down buttons will drop down but not be active until you go back to the original button and finish the script. What I believe will fix the problem is to disable the other main menu buttons until the script has finished. I could just disable at the beginning of the script and enable at the end but there are 5 flyouts and 9 buttons on the main menu. This would add up to a ton of extra code. So how could I create a block of code that disables the buttons and another block that will enable them at the end of the script but be able to call them in each script?
And here is my site that I'm currently working on. [URL]
i have a movie clip (mc_1) inside of this movieclip i made
-one button ("start") : by its event Roll_Over the animation (of mc_1) starts
-ten menu buttons (b_1,b_2,b_3,....,b_10) : at first they're not on the stage, but they appear one by one,frames by frames, after I rolled over "start".
-one invisible button (inv_btn): placed right under the area occupied by those previous buttons..by its RollOut event i make the menu rewind so the ten buttons disappera one after one other.
now i have to put the menu buttons inside an array (cause i made a script for dynamic loading images from XML) but i receive #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. this is why i put in the array buttons that at first doesn't even exist...and when the menu closes disappear again..how can I handle the situation?
//this is the array code i put in the first frame of mc_1.
var bottone:Array = new Array(b_1,b_2,b_3,b_4,b_5,b_6,b_7,b_8,b_9);
for(var i=0;i<bottone.length; i++) {
var but_var:MovieClip = MovieClip(bottone[i])
but_var.buttonMode = true;
but_var.id = i;
im having trouble making the buttons within my drop down menu active.basically, on the main timeline, i have a movieclip, and within it have a button that once u roll over it, will go to another instance in that timeline to display a drop down menu located below it (with buttons). these buttons do not perform any actions to the main timeline regardless where i place the actionscript or how i point to those buttons.

View 5 RepliesI'm making a slide menu that loads a xml file and creates buttons dynamically. Another functionality it has a sliding menu also, and I can't stop it. Heres goes the zip file, which contains .fla and .xml files.

I'm working on a slideshow presentation which cycles through ten slides. It also has ten buttons so that you can go between the slides.My problem is that I want the button to stay hovering while it's on it's specific slide.Right now when you hover over a button it will "rise" and when you mouse off it "lowers" I need the button to stay in the risen position while it's on it's specific slide, then lower when it transitions out and then the next button will rise in it's specific slide.

View 6 RepliesI have a menu with five nav buttons (atcually MovieClips). Each has three frame labels: "on", "stay", and "off". The rollover and rollout animations play flawlessly, but I'm at a loss as to how to give each button a sticky "active" state. I'd like the button to stay in it's active state until another button is clicked, then I would like it to play it's "off" animation. Each MC has this code:

Lostinbeta utilises a sliding menu system with a delay so that the section head follows after the content. I have been looking around for a tutorial but haven't found one to date
View 1 RepliesI have a sliding menu. As one of the movies inside the contentHold i want to load an swf. I do this by going into the movie content2 and adding the following code:
Code:
this.clip_mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip ("holder", 1);
this.clip_mc.loadMovie("sourceMod.swf");
The swf file works perfectly if i launch it separately, but when i try to launch it from the sliding menu all i see is the background of the clip and not the actual content.

View 2 Repliesi have a menu http[url]....that i want to have the month and day stay highlighted depending what page you are on. you will have to check it out to see what i am talking about
the menu sits on an asp page so the whole site is not all in flash but when someone clicks and month and day i want it to stay colored in even after they are taken to that page. i know their has to be a way to do this without making a menu for each month.
I made (in fact assemble) an sliding menu wich works fine, the thing is i realized i need liquid layout in my site i cant make it work with this particular menu, i found nformation an i could make a flas movie with liquid layout but with simple mc.

code in keyframe:
/// begin sliding code

how to do this sort of navigation system? Just like the one used here:

Click on "Jewels to love madly" and click Rings. A vertical bar comes up that slides up and down with image links.
That's the effect I want to achieve but I'd like it to be horizontal, like the one here:

except that one doesn't use images.
