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]
- swap the depths
- load some text
- attach a movie from the library

I have a mc that you should drag to the right mc.The mc that you have to choose from are sometimes a little close so I made a code that the mc that you drag will xscale so it will be smaller.But then if I press on the end of the mc before dragging the mc is outside the mouse and you cant use the OnRelease code.How to avoid that.Enclose a small fla, and the code is:
function god ( t,t1,t2){
t.onPress = function(){
this._xscale = 20;[code].......
I'm attaching my new xml menu .The problem is that I can't get the subItems to work with the onRelease function.
View 1 RepliesI need a rollover function and so I changed onRelease to onRollover but the rollover effect then doesn't work.
- Script is on seperate layer (on root)
- hit_mc is the movie clip on which the rollover should work
- mask_mc is the one that should tween when mouse goes over hit_mc
hit_mc.onRollover = function() {
tweenBall(mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut);
};
[Code]....
Do I have to use a listener in order to make the onRelease function work? Right now it doesn't and I think it's because the png isn't loaded before the onRelease function is invoked.[code]
View 3 RepliesI downloaded this free flash website template for building my website, all the actionscript in the template in AS3, i tried using xml flash - photogallery (for which i found the tutorial on this website.) in my website, but while publishing the site, it gives error, i guess it might be compatibility issue as the script that i found on the website might be in AS2 and that might be clashing with AS3 script of the template. Coz when i change the publish setting to AS2, the AS3 part of the script does not work. Individually both script in their respective separate files work but when combined together the site goes bonkers. as i want the photogallery part exactly as it is shown on this site which is with the thumbnail preview.
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to ADD onRelease method on movieclip that already has a onRelease method? Without replacing the first one.

I have one function that puts text in a text field and makes a button goto a url onRelease.The code is like this:
Code:
item.onRelease = function() {
myButton.onRelease = function() {
getURL("http://google.com", "_blank");
}
talk = this.txt;
}
the only problem is that the button doesn't work onRelease. i think that it is because there are too many functions there, but at the same time,

Ok perhaps ive bitten off too much here...I know you are not supposed to parse xml/html to regex but the thing is there just arent many other options.Im using AS3.im parsing the source of textflowlayout text to a different format.
string to parse :
< fontFamily=Verdana encoding=unicode fontWeight="bold"> some text < fontFamily=Verdana encoding=unicode > some text < fontFamily=Arial encoding=unicode fontStyle="italic"> some text < fontFamily=Arial encoding=unicode fontWeight="bold" fontStyle="italic"> some text
what i really need is:
< fontname=Verdanabold encoding=unicode> some text < fontname=Verdana encoding=unicode > some text < fontname=Arialitalic encoding=unicode > some text < fontname=Arialbolditalic encoding=unicode > some text
logically i think of it as taking apart the string into substrings
checking if there are fontWeight or fontStyle in the substring
if there is then appending the font name with the weight or style so so that the font name becomes font NameWeightStyle.then rebuilding the string.The font could be any font with variouse styles or weights..so far:
pattern = /<(.*?)>/gixsm;
var matches:Object = pattern.exec(str);
var finalstring:String = "";[code]...........

View 1 RepliesI 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 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();

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)};

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
}

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've created 5 button, the first one should jump to frame # 70, but it doesn't work.The button is page1_bt (is the name in the library?)[code]

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.
