I have 10 mc's. They are all placed in a row on top of each other (like a deck of cards layed out). On rollover I want the rolled over mc to get to the highest depth and stay there until another mc I rollover another mc that gets the new highest depth.

I have created a site that calls in text from an external .txt file. The text file is a flat file that is updateable using PHP. What I need is for the Flash site to reflect the current contents of the text file each time it's updated through the PHP interface. I'm using the standard:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
text_txt.text = this.blog;
[Code].....
I did get it to 'kind of work' at one point, but the output text would flash 'undefined', then show the contents of my text file, then go blank then start that loop over again. Not acceptable.

View 2 RepliesI have a menu set up so that when you rollover a button it brings an image to the top that corresponds with that button. This is currently set up by using swap depths. The problem is that I want the layer to fade to the top instead of just popping to the top. I turned the layers into MCs and put fades inside the MCs and that works with the code to bring the layer to the top and fade in. But when it does come to the top and fade in, it's deleting whatever layer was previously on top rather then fading overtop of it, so when the new layer comes to the top, you can see the very bottom layer is it fades in...

View 1 Repliesi have 7 buttons inside an MC in a row next each other, when the mouse rollover each of it zooms 20%. Now the problem starts when the button you're hoving over is zoomed, the button next to it cuts into the image. in the order they where inserted I want the button you're zooming over to always display as the top layer - bring to front -.
i read of a code:
btn.swapDepths(1);
to change the depth of the movie clip
and:
trace(btn.getDepth());
to get the initial depth of the button putting it at a higher or lower depth than the other buttons will either place the button behind or in front of the other buttons ...play around with depths untill you figure it out.
I've a movieclip that contains two buttons. Buttons have a border appearing on roll over.The problem is that the border (which are fairly large highlights for both buttons) overlaps one of the button.What I want to do it that when one of the button is rolled over its index is set to a higher number than the other button and then back to normal upon roll out.

I have a wipe transition of a photo, and underneath that, another photo. So that when the MC is run, what the viewer sees is the underlying scene photo progressively (but quickly) being wiped over by the gradual revelation of a another pict. Now I want to programmatically move the underlying ("wiped over") layer to the top. The underlying scene photo occupies the lower layer. I've tried turning the wipe collection of mask and photo for one layer into one symbol, and the other pict scene into another symbol. But for the life of me I don't understand how the code for each goes into the layer tree. Or whether scoping out the symbols as I've postulated is even the right way to proceed.
The board doesn't allow for the ability to post the (f-) file, so there's no way I can ask if anyone can show me how to weave the code into the Timeline area. Also I'd like to direct the program to bring the lower layer to the top under certain conditions. There are no examples anywhere for how to programmatically do this for CS4. There was a CS3 way to do like this (this is a mouse rollover sample):

What code would you use so that when a button on the main menu of a site is clicked, it plays the end of the current movie before bringing up the next?
I have a site where each page is contained in a movie, and each movie has 3 parts.
1. Intro
2. Pause where content is kept on page
3. Outro
When a button is picked to go to a new page, I would like the outro to play before loading the next movie. Is there a way to do this?
What's the best way to bring in an image with transparency in Flash CS4?I have a logo in Photoshop that looks great on a black background. But when I bring it in as a GIF or PNG in Flash, the edges get really jagged.Is there a preferred way to import this so the edges are smooth?

I have a movieclip (jobImage) which I'm loading an image (Image1, a subnode of Job1) into using XML. But I want to be able to click on any one of a series of buttons which will have that image replaced by a new image (eg. Button2 will load Image2, another subnode of Job1, Button3 will load Image3, etc.).So I have the selected button pass a number back to a variable called "_root.imageTarget". If Button2 was pressed, this would happen: _root. imageTarget = "2";This variable is then combined with the word "Image" to form a new variable (newImage)[code]
View 7 RepliesHow can I implement this? I tried to use: (this.numChildren - 1)But it doesn't work. I want to use this code because I have 8 boxes, each are 100px X 100px. You hover each box and they flip over but the "backside" of these cards are larger in both length and width than the front. When they flip over they overlap the neighbouring card. I'm looking for some sort of script so that I can tell each card to align itself above the other cards on the stage.
View 20 RepliesI have created a image gallery. There's a image scroller, when clicking an image it show large image on the same layer. I insert the image to this layer like this: addImage("image url", x, y, this). addImage is my own function witch works fine. In the begin of code I create movieclip (var controls:MovieClip;). When I'm inserting images to that, I want to bring the movieclip to front. Because that large image is added after the controls, it will be on the top.

I have developed a flex project
It brings out the result from an xml file through an url.

I have DataGroup with custom item renderers, which can partly overlap each other. I have possibility to select these items. And I want selected item to be above others in the datagroup. But since DataGroup sets childIndexes (from left to right) to its children and we cannot change childIndex of items explicitly, selected item is above all items to the left and under all items to the right. So, what is the way to place selected item above others? I thought of using PopUpAnchor, but may be other solutions exist.
