ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons In Arrays - No Action?
May 3, 2008
I have 36 buttons I need action on. To avoid a lot of similar commands, I am trying to assign the button names in an array using a for loop. Tracing the array values, gives the correct button names, but there is no action when I press the buttons.Here is the code:
var farge_btn_tbl:Array = new Array(4); // Array assigning button instance names (works fine)
var farge_fr_tbl:Array = new Array(4); // Array assigning frame label names
[code]......

One if the reasons I used Flash 5 for my personal company website was the really simple programming through action script buttons an fill-out-forms (you know: Gotoandplay, fill out this, click there and so on ...).Im a good artist but im terrible att programming! Anyways now I got one of the latest versions of Flash and action Script is definatelly still there but in soooo many versions and and those action script buttons and fill-out-windows are not there any more, so Im lost! I dont have Flash 5 anymore otherwise I would use it.
Is there a button somewhere so I can get back my "useless newbie action script buttons"? Or what should I do?

How can I make an array that accepts only a single kind of element?For example, this:var arr:Array of MovieClip = [ mc1 , mc2 ];Basically, I want to do something like this:for ( var i:Number = 0; i<arr.lenght; i++ ) arr[i].alpha = 0.5;Of course, I could to it manually, but that's ugly, and I'll have to add a bunch of "if"s if I want to access the next element (as "if ( element == mc1 ) mc2.alpha = 0.5;")

If the answer is yes then a needle on a separate movie goes closer to the red(right) and if the answer is no then the needle stays where it is. This was all fine until the user ticks yes then changes their mind to no... the needle would then stay where it was rather than going backwards(towards the green) because I had set it up to not do anything if the no button was pressed initially? I was told that setting up the buttons as arrays would be the best option but on trying to learn about arrays I've become completely confused? oh additionally the amount of ticks dictate certain events that happen to the needle movie so they need to trigger events some how?

I am currently having a problem adding the Tell Target action to a button. The following is the hierarchy of my timeline:
-Root
---Movie Clip (Instance Name="FadeIn")
------Button (Instance Name="Button")
----------Movie Clip (Instance Name="About")
The Movie Clip I'm trying to control is "About". This MC is also placed within the 'Over' state of "Button". I keep receiving the Target Not Found error in Base="_level0.FadeIn".

I am a Flash newbie and I've probably bitten off more than I can chew with this one...it sounded so easy!
Okay, so here's what I want to do: There are 5 people layered across the screen. When you rollover the person, they change color and come to the foreground (over the other pictures). On rollout, they go back to the background and change back in color. On click, they go to a new screen with just their picture and some information.
I first started setting this up and did each person as a button. Then I realized that in doing that, the button would not come to the foreground on rollover if it was below other buttons in the layers. So I put all of the buttons in movie clips and applied AS to the buttons (inside the movie clips, with the buttons on the main scene) and the AS2 looks like this:

I have started to take AS2 knowledge a bit further now and am working on a rss reader, i have multiple buttons which are loaded into the stage, what i would like to know is a) how do i create those arrays using their 'idenifier' and b) how do i link pressing those with the corresponding url in the urlArray?
what i then want to do is put the url which is loaded after a button has been pressed and put it as a variable which i can then load into
ActionScript Code:
rssFeed.load(/*urlGoesHere*/);

I'm trying to pause a movie using a stop action. I'm using a button to do this. This is in the actionscripting attached to the button.
on (press) {
stop();
}
The button is in the main movie so I don't get why it's not working. I'm also trying to add a button next to it that would play the movie, after pausing it.

as a follow-up to my question earlier. Where would I be able to locate the transition script so that I can delete it alltogether and allow users to navigate with solely the previous and next action buttons. (And what verbiage [more or less] am I looking for)?

I have three buttons on screen that navigate to different places on the timeline. I have set them all up as buttons using a generic button in the library and then given them all different instance names. I selected the button and changed the text colour for each state in the timeline (up, over, down) to keep it simple. The buttons are all, as far as I can analyse, identical in all but instance name.
When I test the movie, the first button changes text colour on 'over' and, when I click (i.e. down state) the colour changes again as designed. The navigation action doesn't occur until I release the mouse button, giving the feel of having 'clicked' the button.
With the other two buttons, which have been set up as far as I can tell in exactly the same way, when the down state occurs, I see a momentary flash of the text colour change and it performs the nav straight away. I really want it to perform the same way as the first button but cannot for the life of me see why they're behaving differently.

I have this array that contains the names of various images I want to load into Flash
var imageArray:Array=["image1","image2","image3","image4","image5","image 6","image7","image8","image9","image10"];
Now I want to create 10 different buttons with each button loading in an image. I know there's a way to do this with a for loop without having to make 10 different buttons and writing 10 different functions. Not sure how to correlate the members imageArray with the generated btns.

Code:

If I wanted to change an action from a button click to a frame-based action, what do I use instead of onPress? The hints from the AS editor are all click-based.

I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}
There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}
Everything I have attempted is not working.

I just want to make a simple button action using actionscript 2 but I can't get it to work! I'm sorry for even asking but I've been at this for too long now for it to not work I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 and I do the following --
File -> New Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)
Insert -> New Symbol
Name - test
Type - button
Export for ActionScript
Identifier - test
And then draw it in using the keyframes and add the code to 'Actions - Button' for my button
Code:
on(release) {
trace("trace");
}
I click on the button and it animates but no action event in the trace?

I am running into some trouble adding an array into another array to create a multi-dimensional array.The code appears as below:
var slideDataArray:Array = new Array();
var slideShowDataArray:Array = new Array();
slideDataArray[0] = xmlData.SlideShowParameters.SlideShowImagesDirectory;[code]........
I am looking for a means of placing the slideDataArray into a 'slot' or value of slideShowDataArray so that I can in the end pass the slideShowDataArray as a parameter to another function.As of now, the last slideDataArray appears 11 times (the loop runs 11 times) in slideShowDataArray and the way the code is written the slideDataArray is unique every iteration of the loop.
