What I have is a map where if clicking on a point on the map it zooms in then click again zooms back out. I found this script on a forum, but need it to be applied to specific points rather that by where my mouse is.
onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
if (i>0) {
return;

how can I apply an action to a button. I am using the Flash CS3 and I know that I can only apply actions to instances but I still can't make it work. It's a very simple file, I have 2 frames and I want a button on the first frame (with the instance name "hdg") that on release goes to frame 2 and stop.
I can't make it work:
my_btn.onRelease = function () {
trace ("onRelease called");
};
I also want the movie to stop on the first frame, so that it does go straight to frame 2 but with the action of the instance there's an error.
I want to apply an action to my button so that it plays a mc on frame 2 of the mc, but in the actions palette in the window to add an action it says: Current selection cannot have actions applied to it. This thing is definitely a button but I will say that I have a mc and text box in each of the 4 frames of the button. But why should that cause an issue? With the button on the stage, I can view the up/over/down states by going: control --> enable simple buttons, so it is acting as a button.

View 1 Replieshow to apply a print function to a button, i have search through the script directory and this was all I could come up with?
on (press) {
printAsBitmapNum(_root.order, "bmovie");
}
order is the name of the movie clip. what i need is to be able to print the screen from the position where the button is situated??
This script does not print: i have played around with the settings in normal mode but there is no response from my printer.
I was able to take an existing Flash file created in '06 and make a simple slideshow. See it at: [URL]. Now I've been asked to add buttons and make the slides fade instead of slide into each other. They want it like this: [URL]. So I created a very simple mock up: [URL]. I just can't get the buttons to work like the prosolassociates one above. I have attached the FLA here for review.

I'm loading in 5 jpegs from an external file using "loadMovie" and i have 5 corresponding buttons (1-5) to load them with.
I want to change the jpeg the button loads in depending whether a separate navigation button has been pressed -
i.e.
navigation buttons:
-motorbike pics
-car pics
-lorry pics
If a user clicked on "car pics" then the loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "car1.jpg", "car2.jpg" and so on...
similarly if the user clicked on "lorry pics", the same loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "lorry1.jpg" and "lorry2.jpg"
// This is an array, a list of the buttons used. var myButtons = [this.myButton_1, this.myButton_2, this.myButton_3, this.myButton_4]; // Loops on all buttons from the first to the last one for (var i=0; i<myButtons.length; i++) { // When the mouse rolls over this menu option... reduce size just a bit. // NOTICE: I'm not taking into consideration the problem of having the hit area going down and "moving" the // mouse area and out of the button (possible rollover flicking). This is just a simple example afterall.

In the above instance how would I address the problem of flickering? I think want to apply the .onRollOver to an invisible button instead. How can this be done? Im just getting started with tweening animations outside the timeline with MCTween

I have made a button with sound and a text that I want to change after the user clicks on it. In the button-symbol I have one layer for sound and one for shape. When the user click the sound is OK and the link to the URL I have stated is opened. Fine. But the button do not change as I drawn it in frame "down" in the four-frame timeline - I want the button to have another text when clicked.

I want to change a movie clip's tint once a button event occurs, and I can't seem to figure it out. I have looked at Kirupa's color changing tutorial but it does not apply to tinting. I found this through a google search but I'm not entirely sure how to use it.
Code:
//tint an object with a color just like Effect panel b between 0 and 255; amount between 0 and 100
Color.prototype.setTint = function (r, g, b, amount) {

I have 20 buttons (mc's). I want to be able to select one and have it stay in the down state until another is pressed. Frame 1 is "up" frame 2 is "down". I have an array of the buttons(mc's). This piece of code works but doesn't return the button to the up state when another is selected.
function changeButtonState(a){
var i = 0;
for (i=0;i<=19;i++){
if(a=="S"){_level0.sb[b].gotoAndStop(2);isw = 1;}
}}
The array of buttons is called "sb".
I have a menu that is HTML/CSS. When I mouse over a menu item, I would a Flash header to change scenes accordingly.
Is this possible, and if so, how would I go about doing it?
I will be using Flash 8. I know how to animate, but I know nothing of ActionScripting. I'm a web designer, not a developer.
(I'm aware I could make the menu in Flash as well, but I personally don't care for having navigation set in a Flash .swf.)
I have a map of the US. Each U.S. state is a simple button.I'd like to change the button fill color (and potentially, theoutline color) in AS3. I've created the buttons in Flash,not inS3 (just graphically). How do I change the button fill color?Sample code:
function addButtonListeners(btnInstance:SimpleButton) {
btnInstance.addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,
handleRollover);

I looked around through pages and pages on google and couldn't find anything somewhat related. I got a lot of help, but I still can't seem to get this part of my ActionScript working. I have a program, that when running, allows me to paint random color squares on mouse click. I added a button, that is supposed to be able to change the shape being painted from rectangle to circle. I can't seem to get that button to work. This is what my code looks like so far.

I'm about as new to flash MX, how to write an action script that will allow me to change text with a button. However, I would like to be able to do it by a combo box. In other words, I would like to make it so that when you change the combo box to a different label, the text field will change to a different outside text file.
