ActionScript 2.0 :: Turning Button Into Movie Clip
Aug 24, 2010
Ive been trying to get this straight for days. I simply want the buttons in the attached file to be replaced by movie clips doing exactly the same job. When I write the code it doesn�t work. How is the code supposed to look?
I'm making a website and I've just finished the intro. Basically, I have a movie clip in the intro of a leaf floating down, stopping in the center and then has text fade in over it. I'm trying to turn this clip into a button that will take you to the main page
I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) { _root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true; } on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
What action script would i need to make a button in one movie clip goto and play a frame in another movie clip? Im not very good at flash but i've been trying my usual codes but it dont work..
I am trying to move a movie clip containing content via AS3 tween with a button outside of the movie clip. I have achieved this effect on another project by using the following code:
Actionscript Code: var myxTween:Tween=new Tween(content_mc,"x",Regular.easeOut,content_mc.x,theXPosition,.8,true);
I set up a moveContent funtion using that tween, then used:
I'm trying to create a movie clip on my my main timeline that has a movie clip button within it that pops up a box in the middle of the site that contains text and links. On Frame 1 I have the Up state, frame 2 the roll over state, and frame 3 my Down State (where Box appears).
[Code]...
The problem is that on the main time line, the button is clickable but doesnt do anything
I am trying to target a movie clip within a movie clip.
I have a movie clip on the main stage with an instance name of a
I have the following action script on it
on (release) {_root.a.gotoAndStop(2); }
So on frame 2 of a I have a button (instance name b) which also has two frames and a stop action on frame 1. All I want to do is click on the button and make it go to frame 2. It should work but it isn't Here is the actionscript on the button (b) on (press) {_root.a.b.gotoAndPlay(2); }
how can i get a MC button that is inside another MC to carry out its functions
the mc button is using TweenMax for its roll-ON roll-Off effect and that works as normal when i test main movie
but the button itself dont function when pressed still mouse roll-On roll-Off effect works but not the movie clip button it this to do with it been nested inside another mc or is it the code am using below
web.onRelease = function(){ gotoAndStop,(49); }
web is just the name of the nested movie clip button i was saying
I'm building a survey in flash and I have multiple movie clips that cover the entire work area and are layered on top of each other, cycling through them (page to page) by tweening alpha on/off. I'm pretty happy with the way it looks except for the fact the buttons. While I can not see them, my cursor still turns into a hand if I happen to scroll over them.I've tried using, useHandCursor = false; and buttonMode = false; without any luck. Can anyone tell me how these commands work or can you tell me how you cycle multiple pages in the same flash file?
Why is it that when i have button in a movie clip and that movie clip is a draggable object the button becomes inactive? How can i have both the button and the movie clip draggable and the button continue to function. below is the script i have for the draggable movie clip, which has the button contained within that:
how do we refer the submenubutton which hasbeen masked inside a movie clip.
In my code ,
mainBtn3 is present inside "mm " movie clip . and on click of it I am able to move to another frame using below code . But, if there is a sub menu for the button , and if I am referring it as below [mm.btn3sub1] and trying to move to another frame . I am getting following error
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at sumiyatried12356_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
Anyway what I need to do is have a movie clip finish playing when a button is clicked and then go to the frame label associated with the button. I hope I'm explaining myself ok. So if I had say 4 buttons Home Gallery About Contact If Contact is clicked then I want the Home page to play (Which is a fade out) and then go to Contact Page (which will fade in). Then If Gallery is clicked then I want Contact to fade out and then go to Gallery page and fade in.
I've made a mute button for my embedded FLV sound. I'm usingSoundMixer.stopAll(); as the controlling action. How do I start thesound up again? From what I could tell, there wasn't aSoundMixer.playAll();, which would be the logical choice.The sound is embedded into the FLV, so I don't have direct
I have some html code that is for a button in html that when pressed sends you to a certain url but also somehow adds an 'id value' and a 'website value'.
How can I convert this code and or put it into a flash button?
Disregard the gif info...that's just for the html graphic that goes for the button.
I have a button, in default, and rolled over state, it has Movie Clips. however, when entering the scene, the Movie Clip in default state of a button is playing. what I want to do, is to somehow stop the movieclip, and have it played ONLY when mouse rolls out of button. So put in simply, Movieclip is frozen in button, point on a button, leave button, movieclip plays. Is it possible? P.S. This is what I have right now [URL]
I am looking for a way to fade in a white movie clip over my main movie when a button is pressed.
(i.e. When you press a button, a white rectangle will fade in over all other layers and then fade out after a couple of seconds. This is to make it look like the different pages are fading in and out without having to build the transition over and over again.)
I have a MC, which i would like to act as a button, controlled by AS. So,inside the MC is a simple animation (the button just goes left for ten frames (preferred rollOver action) and then back for another ten (preferred rollOut action).On the MC actions I put:
on (rollOver) { this.useHandCursor; this.gotoAndPlay(1);[code].......
What happens is the following: on mouse over the mc goes left, on mouse out the mc goes back to its original place.It works exactly as it is supposed to. Exactly until you try again... if you move the mouse away from the mc (onRollOut), before the animation reaches the end, it goes bezerk.what happens and also how the animation can be done using only AS (with some for loop or function or something and chaning _x property)?
I'm trying to make a flash website that has clickable buttons that will play different movie clips. But I dont know how to make it to just play the movie clip with the button you click without playing all the movie clips on the main timeline.
I've used the XML connector to use an xml file to populate amenu>submenu> thumbnail image flash application. Everythingworks except that I'd like the last step to be that the user clickson the dynamically generated thumbnail image to open acorresponding pdf. I'm using the Loader component to generate thethumbnail. Essentially, I want to turn that image into a buttonthat launches a pdf.
I have a flipping book component. It come with the basic page turning function where the user can turn each page manually. Because there are many chapters,I created buttons under the pages so that the user can navigate directly to specific pages. I can not find and create the codeto attach to each button to make the pages flip directly to the indicated page? The component uses AS2,Here is main code that appears at frame 1.
