ActionScript 2.0 :: Button Visibility And _x Position
Sep 29, 2009
I have 11 images i need to _x slide (left and right ) using 2 buttons. ( next and back ) my goal is to show two images at a time ( contained inside img_MC..consisting of all 11) inside a 748 x 419 mask. I have accomplished this but the next button and the back button need to disapear when img_mc is at a certain _x position...so that if you are at the last frame you can only go back...and if you are at the first frame you can only go next.
so far going forward I can get next to show...and going back I can get back to show...but in the middle when I need them both to be there I only have one or the other.

I have created a timeline with visibility button against each column. The timeline.swf is loaded into two empty movieclips to create a two-screen operation. Everything works fine except, I cannot for the life of me get the visibility button on the first swf to affect the visibility for the column on the second swf.

this concerns flash cs5 and the timeline.Everybody knows the effect you get when you use appendText() to add text to a multiline dynamic textfield, right ? Well, I have a movieClip as a container, and I would like dynamic textfields to populate this movieclip in the same manner as textStrings would populate the dynamic Textfield.
How would this work?I have buttons that trigger addChild() function so as to populate the movieclip with textfields, but how do I make sure that the textfields make up an arbitrary list as a menu user chooses which buttons to click?
Let's say this is the visible text when the swf runs.(I cut away some of the code to make this more to the point):
var buttonTrace:TextField=new TextField;
addChild(TextClip.buttonTrace); buttonTrace.x=0;
buttonTrace.y=0;
buttonTrace.text="Breadcrumbs";
Now for each time I click a button in the menu I've made, a new textfield appears with the name of the button. This is how I want it. BUT......... How do I control the display properties and positioning of dynamic textfields within a movieclip ? How do I control persistent visibility, and how do I make these textfields appear one after the other in the order they were clicked.

i have button which open specfic movie clips from my library and locate them on the stage.This all works well and good, but i would also now like a button to remove all of them except one when the user is finished playing around.i got the follwong code working, but it only works on movieclips that are already present on stage. when i export the file i get errors because the movie clip im trying to hide isnt currently on stage i think. i identify the hidden movieclips by their class name.
startover.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeallFunction);
function removeallFunction (event:MouseEvent):void

I need to add text on screen (for hearing impaired) to a simple movie I created. I just need to have text toggle on and off. I don't know how to actionscript the mc or button. Working in F8, publishing to F6.I did see the visibility on/off rollover thread... but I'm not actionscript saavy and can't make the leap to an onpress or onrelease button, rather than a rollover.

I'm attempting to make a "Wheel of Fortune" style game. Everything's going great except this one nagging problem. On the main game board screen (where the word puzzle is solved), I have placed small buttons with all the letters of the alphabet. When the player clicks a certain letter button, the corresponding letters, (if the word or phrase contains them) appear on the board. Well, this works just fine, but as of now, when a letter is chosen, all letters on the board appear at once.
Of course, in the real "Wheel of Fortune" game, if the word or phrase contains 2 or more letters that have been chosen, the letters appear on the board in a sequence, probably around 2 seconds apart (I'm sure most people are familiar with the game show). So, basically, I would love to know how to delay my letter MC's appearing, when the corresponding letter button has been clicked.

I have a mc tracking as a button with a working on(release) statement. Within the on release statement is this code that doesn't work for me:
_root.playbtn.pause_mc._visible = true;
_root.playbtn.play_mc._visible = true;
The first layer of the button has a mc with instance called play_mc
And the second layer of the button with a mc instance called pause_mc
The button instance on the stage is called playbtn.

how to control the visibility of certain buttons from an external file (like scroll bars). I have been able to do this with button function using a loaded variable and if statements on button release, but I have been unable to replicate this with visibility. I really need the button to be visible or not from the initial load of the .swf file. Any suggestions? I currently have to open flash and change the action script within the flash file and export a new .swf, and I want to be able to do it by changing a .txt file.

Trying o make a moiveclip button (which works fine ) But I'm trying to get the MC to stay in the pressed position when on that page. So basically it stays red when on the page and when another button is clicked it go away. Here is the action script code I'm using that is not working. (as a normal buttons works great)
ActionScript Code:
on(release){
trace("yobutton")
_root.bottomLeft.gotoAndPlay("about");
_root.leftText.gotoAndPlay("about");
this.gotoAndStop("pressed");

i am trying to set up a movie in as3/cs5 that works as follows:on the stage there are 3 (maybe 4) movieclips - that are divided into 6 areas.the movieclips themselves have some parallax effect on them (see attached .zip).what i am trying to do is add some script into the movie to do the follow things - first one is that when the mouse goes to the furthest edge of the browser/movie stage - the movie slides to the next/previous section of the movieclip - or rather moves the movieclips to show that section.the other thing is to add buttons to slide the mc's to the corresponding sections.so on the stage there are 4 mc's (divided into sections) if the mouse goes very far left or very far right - the mc's slide across to the next or last section/s - and if the buttons are clicked the movie will slide to a define position on the stage.does anyone know how this can be done? i've been looking for source or tuts but with no joy!

I have a thumbs_mc with thumbnail images. Within thumbs_mc, I have a transparent overlay_mc that functions as a button. Mouse over the overlay_mc and the alpha chages so there is a tint over that particular thumbnailWhen overlay_mc is clicked, the main timeline goes to a particular frame label.What I need to do is have the position of the playhead on the main timeline also determine the alpha of the overlay_mc so the viewer knows which thumbnail is playing.

I have a slider in my movie (depositAmount) and in the component inspecter it has Initial value for the slider. In my first frame I have an input field for depositAmount and i want the position of the slider button to reflect that. So if the min and max deposit amount are 0 and $10,000 respectively and the user inputs deposit Amount as $2000, I'd like to position the slider button 1/5th of the way across the slider. Is that possible? At the moment the slider button will just reflect the initial value position.

I have a simple arrangement where a movieclip moves to a new x y position when a button is clicked. I want the movieclip to slowly move or 'glide' there instead of jumping straight to the new position.
Heres the code..
btn_up.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, moveUp) ;
function moveUp(event:MouseEvent):void {{
allcontent.x += 200;
allcontent.y += 200;
}}

i'm wondering how i can script a scroller bar to smoothly control the _y position of a movieclip on the flash stage, so when the user clicks and drags the scroll button up and down the scroller bar the movieclip scrolls to the relevant position alongside it. i have the button and the movieclip seperated, but both on the same parental level on the timeline.i'm currently using motion tweens (controlled by clicking the up and down buttons of the scroll bar) to animate the movieclip's and the scroller button's_y positions and i'm scripting the fla file in AS2.

I want to make a magic 8 ball in actionscript 3. I'd like to be able to click on the movie clip of the 8 ball, shake it with the mouse, and then have it snap back to its original position when I let go of the mouse button. I have three problems:
1) I can make the 8 ball track the mouse, that's easy, but how do I make it snap back to the original position when I let go of the mouse button?
2) I want to constrain the movement of the 8 ball movie clip so it won't go all over the stage, just enough to move it back and forth a bit.
3) How do I randomize output of answers in the 8 ball window...such as, "not now," "doesn't look good," or "yes" etc?

I have a Flash home page which is part of a standard html website. A button needs to link to a specific position in the middle of an html scrolling page. My current script is:
on (release) { getURL("whats-hot.html#_cn"); }
"whats-hot.html" is the page, "#_cn" is the bookmark to the desired position. However, this is not functioning correctly and lands at the top of the page.

Is there a better way to do use a use a boolean with visible? I'm setting up animations that have conditions for visibility, and I don't want to use something that performs poorly. This animation blinks 30 times and stops. It works without error, but takes a moment to load. I would like to learn other ways of using visibility with conditionals.
This is what I used 'waits before playing'
if(condition=5){
box.visible = !box.visible;
This works fine 'no pause'
if(condition<6){
box.visible = !box.visible;
