I am trying to use anchor labels with a code like this[code]...
but this doesnt do anything, eventhough I have a anchor label named blue and can go directly to index.html#blue and it works. I was hoping to do this so that I can use the back button on the site.
I am using anchor labels for a new site and it works good in firefox but in IE it is going though each anchor till it finds the correct one. You can see it going through the labels in the address bar and a clicking noise for each one, besides the fact its ugly it takes a while to go through them all. You can see it here -[URL]

I'm using a little flashmovie as a button on a website, and I'm trying to link it to not only a certain page but also a specific place on that page. Right now I'm using the following code:
getURL("SS-nieuws-flash.htm#opendagen", "_self");
This only gets me to the right page, but not the right place on that page. Can this be done in Flash. I haven't been able to find any examples of it in the manual or on the web.
I'm trying to track a #anchor for example [URL] the anchor is being called by Flash AS2. how can i tell GA to track hits on this page? I tried the GETURL method in flash:
[Code]....
which apprently used to work, but since they've made changes this doesn't... during tests firefox navigated to a page with the url javascript:_gaq.push [URL] was strange. Do I need to even use flash to ask GA to track the anchor? Is there a way i can point GA to track all anchors that are part of my page?
i'm using buttons with the getURL action to navigate to different pages in my site. each "page" in effect, is an .html document comprised of an embedded .swf.is there a way to target to a specific frame label in the requested .swf, when the getURL action is initiated? in other words when i press the "info" button that brings up the "info.html" page, is there a way i can navigate to a specific frame label from within the info.swf? seems like it should be a really simple thing to do. i don't quite know if what i'm asking makes sense, but in essence, i would want something like this button script to accomplish what i'm talking about:
Code:
on(release){
getURL("info.html")

i'm a novice to ActionScript but from failed Google function searches, i think i've choosen an advanced i hope possible task: how to read then apply bezier, anchor point and handle positions to different anchor points. What i need to do is precisely align a rectangular closed bezier path with a randomly shaped closed bezier path, both with the same number of anchor points.
View 9 RepliesI understand that when applying html text to a textfield you can have an anchor tag call a specific function. however, is if you can call a function on rollover of the anchor tag?
Example:
Instead of this...
<a href='asfunction:_root.test'>Click here to call the test function</a>
I'd like this...
<a href='' onMouseOver='asfunction:_root.test'>Rollover here to call the test function</a>
I'm hoping this is very easy as I'm not very proficient in flash/as3. but from the looks of things it might be a bit complicated ..how would I go about calling an anchor id such as the one below:
<a id="v_toggle" href="#">toggle</a>
I want to toggle a javascript slide in the html page.
Is there a better way to have a symbol's anchor point default to the size of the stage? I'm having Huge problems because if two symbols are different sizes then I can't tell two objects to be in the same location.The workaround seems terrible. I have a guide layer for stage bounds. I'd have to duplicate that, add that to the objects that I'm going to want to convert to a symbol first, then remove it after it's converted. Is there anyway to automate any of that? That just seems like a terrible task to repeat over and over. I suppose one option is to have a blank symbol that is the correct size already, duplicate that in the library, rename it, put that on the stage, then put your objects in there. Wow, I'm not sure if that's better or worse!
View 1 Replieshow can i make named anchor links in flash, i tried this: [URL] i dowloaded the sample, it works as it is with as1 but it doesn't seem to work with as2?
View 1 RepliesFlash knows where the anchor point is in 3D space in order for the symbol to rotate around it, but I can't seem to figure out how to see the coordinates of the anchor point or type in new ones. Please tell me how to do this. I am already very annoyed that Lynda, a pay service, doesn't think this is vital information. Apparently they think we would never want to do anything more visually stimulating than one simple spinning logo! But I digress...
Just to be clear, I know how to move the anchor point visually on the stage, but I want accuracy. I want to be able to give two symbols the exact same coordinates to rotate around.
Does anybody know if there is an option to make a pen anchor snap to a guide/grid? Kind of like smart guides in illustrator but in flash cs 5?
View 2 RepliesI think I discovered a bug. Say this is a line with anchor points:
x---x---x---x---x---x---x
And this is what I want to achieve using the Delete Anchor Point Tool:
x-----------x-----------x
Then this is as far as I'm actually able to get:
x-------x---x-----------x
Because for some reason, if I delete the 2nd anchor point, the 3rd will be deleted too. I can, however, delete the 3rd without deleting the 2nd.
It is only after I've moved the 3rd further away that I'm able to delete the 2nd, but this gets tiring after a while.
Cryptic title, but it's hard to explain. With Firefox, head over to [URL] do a random search, and then drag the first search result to the URL bar. You'll see it it goes to the page that had the image anchor. Then click the "see full size image" link, and then drag the image to the address bar. In the first example, it copied the anchor, not the image, to the address bar. And in the second example, it took the URL of the image itself. Is there a way to get to the image inside the anchor?
I'm using a drop target that's in an iframe on another domain, so targetting the img's directly and adding JS events is out. I don't expect to be able to do this with straight JS (though I hope). In fact I'm not even sure if flash/actionscript can do this! My thought is I need to set up a drop target and get details about the element that was dropped... if it's an anchor, I can dive into the DOM and get the img inside it. This, of course, assumes that the DOM element itself is what's being dragged and that the browser isn't just copying the link.
I have a dynamic image loading into a movie clip and i dynamically created a transform box around it. However the anchor point of that transform box is coming on the left top instead of in the center, which is not letting the image transform properly. how to dynamically put the anchor point to center through AS2?

Is there a way to do this?
I want the button in my flash movie to jump to seperate html page called bios.html and go down to the anchor "kbrown".

I have a flex Text field that previously I was declaring and initializing as pure flex mxml. The htmlText field had an anchor tag in it that worked just fine. I'm declaring and initializing this Text field in an mx:script block, and the anchor tag no longer is recognized. Every other concievable tag work as before - <font, <u, and so on - but not <a. For example in the following:
txt1.htmlText = "<u><a href='http://www.google.com'>testing</a></u>";
the text is underlined but there is no link and the cursor doesn't change.
More maddening arbitrary b.s. from flex/as3.
I want to have a flash movie on my web page, it will have some buttons with animations. Is there posiblle to jump somewhere in the same web page (anchor) if I press button in flash. How can I make button like that.
View 14 RepliesI have a database popping out XML documents. I need to access those docs from Flash and parse
through them. The docs occasionally have
<a href="bla.xml#ID(123)">
formatted links.
I need to convert that to work in Flash but I cant change the XML. I figured that I will have to parse through things line by line and strip out values of ***.xml and the ID# but I have no idea how to construct a link that will load, retarget the myText object and then jump to the anchor in XML/html format. Are Anchor tags allowed?
Is it possible to create anchor links in text within a scrollpane. I created text with a list of questions at the top of the list and answers at the bottom of the list. I want to be able to click on a question and jump down the list to the answer within the scrollpane. Similar to anchor links in html.

Flash is being used to create an animated button, and the anchor tag makes it so you can click on that to go to another page. On most browsers, you can click anywhere on the Flash object and the link works...but in Chrome, the link displays in the status bar when you hover over the flash element, but does nothing when you click it. However, there is a small area (about 19px) below the flash element where the link works.
How can I get this to behave the same way in Chrome as it is in other browsers?
I've got a flash animation of an extruding box drawn frame-by-frame for a "hand drawn" effect. The problem is that I now need to make twice as many frames to allow the box to extrude twice as far, and the canvas is too small to support this; the box would end up outside of bounds. I've tried resizing the canvas, but the extended space is at the opposite end of the canvas from where I need it. In photoshop you could chose where the added space "grew from" but I don't see that option here. Anyone knw a work around It'd be a pain in the tail to have to move very object in every frame for every layer.

I've been playing around with Flash's native 3D in pure AS3 (in FlashDevelop, not the Flash IDE) and am having a heck of a time finding documentation on how to set the 3D "anchor point". (Perhaps it goes by a different name?)
Can anyone tell me the API, Class, or command(s) needed to move the anchor for a given Sprite or Stage?
