Is there an easy way to use two event handlers together without repeating a function like this:
Code:
movieclip.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);

I'm working on a banner with a scroller and was wondering if there is an AS3 way of accomplishing onReleaseOutside in AS3. I need this to work if the scroll scrubber is released outside of the stage.
[Code]...
Firstly I feel this question is not a duplicate for : Easiest implementation of onReleaseOutside in AS3?
Now, the problem , I want to do some action when the mouse_down happened inside the stage, but the mouseup happened outside it. e.g check google finance charts, try dragging the change range divider and then make the drag such that your mouse exists the browser screen, and then do a mouse_up outside the browser, this will trigger some action inside the stage , i.e make the range stick to the position it was, when the mouse exited the window.)
I have "sq_mc" and "status_txt" on Stage.
I am using equivalent of onReleaseOutside which is: this.stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
It works fine. but when I open this SWF in another SWF it doesn't work.. !!
when I press mouse on sq_mc and release outside, counter stops.
but I want to stop the counter when I press mouse on sq_mc and release outside where my SWF which contains sq_mc is in another SWF in browser.
in simple ways... if path of SWF is "browser >> SWF" it works.
but if path is "browser >> SWF1 >> SWF2 >> SWF3" it wont works. in this SWF1 is preloader, SWF2 is SWF loaded in preloader, SWF3 is SWF which contains sq_mc)
Code below:
Code:
var excelClickTimer:Timer;
var i:int;
this.stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler); //counter

Is there a way to ADD onRelease method on movieclip that already has a onRelease method? Without replacing the first one.
ActionScript Code:
mc.onRelease = function(){
trace('1');
}
I was thinking this, but it doesn't work

I am building a timeline with a scrubber. The handle on the scrubber is a movie clip, and it was all working fine. But I didn't like that when you clicked on it, the hand icon would be glued to the left hand side of the handle. So I changed to registration of the handle file so that it would be in the middle. Now my 'onReleaseOutside' command quit working. If I set the registration back, the release command works again.
Basically, if I drag the handle all the way to a side and have the mouse continue past the flash file and release it, it wont register it has been released until I move the mouse back over the flash, which also moves the scrubber handle to _x location of the mouse for where ever it entered the swf. Is there something obvious I am missing? Or do I have to deal with an un-centered handle?
It's relatively easy to find a solution to the problem of the eluding "onReleaseOutside" event in Actionscript 3.0. What is more difficult, is catching the original target object in the last event handler of a classic drag/drop event. A common implementation, provided by our beloved senoculor, is this:
[Code]....
I'd like to say this in the timeframe.
on (Press, ReleaseOutside) {}
Can I put it like this? The check syntax doesn't object, but does it work?
"my_button.onPress, onReleaseOutside = function()"
I have a "onRelease function"
CODE:
btn_4.onRelease = function () {
var yTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(slider, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, slider._x, 695 , 0.600000, true);
}
This works good but I like to add in a "onRelease" play sound, too. How it have to look like and where do I have to place the sound? Because: When I add in a new function "onRelease" both block each other.
var add1:Number = 0;
trace(add1);if(add1 = 100){ thTX._visible = false;}plus.onRelease = function(){ add1 = add1 + 25;}
I would like everytime "plus" is pressed to add 25 to variable. So trace starts with 0 and after 4 clicks it ='s 100.
I have a Red Cup which is a MC and I want the Red Cup to go UP when clicked on and goes back down when you release the mouse click.
I know the coding is
On(press) { and
On(release) {
But I do not know the details.
I am trying set up a simple onRelease function of a button in AS2 within a class file but this is not allowed. It's been ages since I have worked in AS and have a client who needs some work done by a previous developer. why I cannot just use myButton.onRelease = function ()....Here's a sample of the AS2 snippet
Code:
public function callFunction(functionString:String) {
var functionItems:Array = functionString.split(",");
var functionName = functionItems.shift();
[code]....
I'm tring to add a onRelease event into every button I have, code like
for(var i = 1; i <= totalPage; i++){
_root['button'+i].onRelease = function(){gotoPage(i-1)};
}
why its doesnt work. I have to do like following
button1.onRelease = function(){gotoPage(0)};
button2.onRelease = function(){gotoPage(1)};
button3.onRelease = function(){gotoPage(2)};
[Code].....
I'm writing a program that has a button, and when pressed, and the shift key is pressed, will do an action. I have an onRelease function for that button also, but for some reason when I have the button pressed, and I press shift or any other key, it automatically thinks the button is being released. I was using the onMouseDown, onMouseUp functions before, but they caused me a lot of problems aswell.
Try it for yourself:
Code:
btn.onPress = function() {
trace("pressed"); //now hit a keyboard button
}

I have two buttons. Each one calls in an external swf. I would like one of them to call it in onRollOver but nothing happens. It works fine when I change it to onRelease.This is the code I have for the two.

var thumbloader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

i have a movieclip with an onRelease event. Is there anyway i can trigger this event in code? without clicking the movie clip?

View 2 RepliesI would like to push a value, anything really, into my array when my movieclip is pressed. I have a number of fish movie clips, and when I press them they unload, but I would like for every press of the movie clip instance a value to be pushed in the array. This is so that when a certain number of fish have been pressed the movie goes to the next frame. So, I give an if statement to say if the array has a certain length, go to nextFrame();.[code]

[Code]...
I am designing and coding a navigation menu at the moment, and so far I have got the button instances to duplicate for each of the menu items, and set widths, positioning values and RollOver/RollOut functions. However, I would ideally like to include the onRelease button functions in the for loop too - as they are all the same apart from the variable "i". Here is the code snippet:
ActionScript Code:
for (i=1;i<(_root.noofmenuitems+1);i++){
duplicateMovieClip("mc", "mc"+i, i);
[code]...
Now my problem is that by the time the onRelease function is called, the for loop has been completed and the value of i returned is the last i value from the loop (_root.noofmenuitems+1). The this["mc"+i] part obviously works, because the trace function is called when I click any of the menu items.The problem is that I have 6 menu items, and when I click any of them, the trace function returns "test 7" - not the corresponding i values for each button.

I am having a hard time trying to use an onRelease event handler inside a for loop. Basically, I am developping a custom player for articulate presenter using flash and AS2.This code is generating a movie clip in a for loop for each line in the sidebar, with slide title and slide number parsed from a XML.Until here, all works fine.But when I try to generate the onRelease event handler to play the wanted slide when I click on the line, the value inside the onRelease is always the highest value of i.Looks like the onRelease evaluates i only when I click on the line, after all the clips have been generated.[code]I have to find a way to capture the value of i for each clip.

View 6 RepliesI have a serious situation regarding the onRelease Funciton not working properly.I have a FVLplayback componant inside a flash project inside a movie clip. Inside that movie clip I have two layers, One for actionscript and and the other for the actual component which contains instance name of 'myPlayer' (without quotes)[code]That cameraRoll is the instance name of another movie clip I have located in the movie clip as shown in path above. Inside that movie I have rollover, Rollout effects. The actionscipt is in an invisible button right on top of the objects. The actionscript is:[code]The objective: the movieclip to carry out the rollover Rollout effect and to have the function that will start the video.The Problem: When I run the flash project, it does the effect but won't start the video. If i move things around, I can have the video start playing but then the button won't do the rollOver, RollOut effects.
-the path to the video component:-root.menu.video
-the path to the movie clip taht contains the timeframes for rollOver/rollOut effects )which contains invisible button on top of everything. root. menu.cameraRoll

I'm using duplicateMovieClip to create instances of a clip. Then I use an array to name the clips. In the scrip that duplicates and names them, I also have an onRelease function to make the mcs do something when you click them. I can't get this onRelease part to work. I need to:[code]
