ActionScript 2.0 :: Create A Basic Menu System Rollover And Roll Out Of All Links?
Jan 12, 2009
I'm in the process of learning OOP and have run into a small problem. I'm trying to create a basic menu system where you can rollover and rollout of all links. When you select a link, it stays highlighted until you click another link.I've given the 5 links instance names like (link0, link1, link2, link3, link4) and given them each an ID of (0,1,2,3,4) - respectively. I used to be able to do something like this:
Code:
this.onRollOver = function(){
if(this.ID != _root.selectedLink){
this.gotoAndPlay('in');
}
[code]....

I am trying to create a standard production of visual basic system, on Flash CS5. It's an interactive system made in Flash, but the house style is as of Visual Basic. I have almost completed the project however I am finding it difficult to:-
a) If the user types into textboxes in one stage on flash, it should appear down on another screen on another textbox, simultaneously.
b) How to validate textboxes in flash so that the user can only type in certain characters, for example the user would fill in the textboxes when asked about coding in visual basic. At the end of the screen by clicking next it would check the textboxes and if the characters are incorrect it would display an error message, and if correct proceed to the next screen.
This coding is the closes't i got to solving my problem about validation, I have also read a number of ActionScript books but no luck there. I have also searched the net but could not find what i am looking for, all i got was validating using passwords from parameters.

[URL] I finally figured out how to get my rollover links to work, but now I need to figure out how to make the bottom links move. For example, when we rollover the Arizona Link, we want the California and Contact Us links to move BELOW the Arizona rollovers. And same thing for when the California link is rolled over, we want the Contact Us link to move BELOW the California roll overs. I feel like it's just a matter of simple code manipulation where I have the rollover code for the individual links, the code I have is below:

And if that user exits the program and loads it again the user's stats are loaded.

I need to create a rather detailed menu system that will load thumbnails of movie clips that I can then double-click on and it will load them into the display list of another movie clip.
I think I can code the loading part but I've never dealt with creating flash menus before and don't have any help in the 5 as3 books I own.
Is there a way I can make the menu generate the thumbs from an external file that I can just update when I need to instead of editing the flash file?

Ive noticed a lot of flash websites have user defined items/links added to the default flash right click settings menu. In other words when we right click on such flash websites it shows links to the designers home page or associated site etc.

I want to create a button that toggles but has a roll over, roll out and click animation. Anyone willing to point me in the direction I need to be so that I can achieve this. I can create the roll over and roll out animation for the buttons but then how could I toggle between the two buttons. Ultimately this is for a start and stop situation. I want when I roll over the button for it to have a transition then click and it toggles to the alternate button with animation. I have been tackling this now for a week and with no success. So far I have found ways to toggle but loose the animation or vice verse.

I'm using CS5 actionscript 2. I would like to create hovering text when one mouses over an item in the navigation window (please see pic). You know, something that would act like a brief abstract to give the user more info re: whether or not they need to click on that link.At present, the nav_mc is linked to an xml doc FYI (the nav_mc accordians in and out, but doesn't have to). I input what I want the menu and submenu to say in the xml nodes and it shows up. It would be cool if the hover text added could also be xml driven tooI am green to this so the more detail the better. Do I need to create a new xml doc? new .swf? How do I link this? Should I use Flash Builder or Catalyst?

I'm trying to create a pop-up menu. I've gotten it to work, however, I'm using an invisable button to control when the mouse is over, or when it leaves so that the menu will hide itself back down. It seems that when I but a button or ANYTHING using the rollOver or rollOut tags that it messes with the invisable button and hides the menu. I figure I need a hitTest?

Does anyone know any good tutorials for an interactive menu (roll you mouse over certain things and the sub-menu comes up which lead to other pages of the site etc.)

This is a very basic question but I can't seem to find an answer. I have a mouse over event and have created the buttons with the mouse overs which is working great. I created the actionscript to go to a specific web page when a user clicks the button. Now, I need to add a label to the mouse over so when someone mouse's over any area of the button, it will show them a particular name for the button.
I am sure that this can be done using actionscript in a mouse event roll over command but I can't figure out what I need to show the text. Here is where I am:

I used a little script from this website to make a button with rollover/roll-out effects (http:url..). In the end of the script, it says:
this.onRelease = function(){
getURL("http:[url]...);
Now I want the button not to follow an external link, but to go to a specific frame number further in my movie.But I can't get it (not with an extra normal button,not with gotoAndPlay (52) etc.).

Not sure where to start to get the AS to get the button created fromt he XML nodes to move down.I haven't changed the code found int he tut too much and the menu works fine except that the rollovers just go over the main menu.

I'm creating a webpage, and I have made some buttons.Image 1 is the homepage, which is frame 1 in Flash.Image 2 shows that when I rollover the button "Portfolio,"I get a dropdown menu.I have this set as frame 3 in Flash.Image 3 shows that I've gone down the dropdown menu and rolled over "Photography." But if I rollout of any of the things from the dropdown menu, it stays at Image 2 (Frame 3)with the dropdown menu visible. Which is a problem...I want to be able to rollout of these buttons to revert back to the homepage, Image 1 (Frame 1).But, for instance, telling "Graphic Design" to go to Frame 1 on rollout means that if I try to go below "Graphic Design" to "Photography," I've rolled out--and so the rest of the menu disappears.So I want to roll be able to select anything from the dropdown menu, and only rollout to Frame 1 if I go outside the entire dropdown menu, not just one button.

I must say I'm pretty new to AS3.0 and last night I tried to develop this accordion menu. It's not XML driven nor does it use AS3.0 to create each "button". What I did was create individual "menus", basically like drop down menus, and converted them into separate movieClips. Also inside of them there's a button movieClip which is the larger one that opens the menu (instanced "btn"), a reference movieClip called tabHeight to define its height - since it can depend on the number of "sub-menus" you have - and a tabMask that onClick (is supposed) to open and reveal the "sub-menus" while making everything move according to that change. I want it to basically start with all menus closed and onClick it reveals each menu, making the necessary y movements. I am getting some errors and I can't make it to work.
Code:
Select allvar growingTab:Object;
var reducingTab:Object;
var tabArray:Array = [tab_0, tab_1, tab_2, tab_3];
for (var i:int = 0; i < tabArray.length; i++) {
var tab = tabArray[i];

I'm trying to make a real simple flash menu, and I am using the "Squirrel Finder"-tutorial as a base. Problem is, when I trace my variables desc and swfURL they are correct, and the numbers on the buttons work fine as well, only when I click on the buttons all of them point to the last post in my XML, i.e., buttons 1,2,3,4,5 all point to swf 5.
Code:
function skapaMeny(menu_xml) {
var proj:Array = menu_xml.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
for (var i=0; i<proj.length; i++) {
var desc = proj[i].firstChild.childNodes;
var swfURL = proj[i].firstChild.nextSibling.childNodes;

I'm trying to make a Roll Out Menu, using a Button with a Movie Clip in its Over state. The problem that I'm running into is that when I roll off of the button the Roll Out Menu disappears. Is there any way that I can keep it out? I know that I could probably make this work by having the button itself have an invisible shape that covers where the Roll Out will appear, but then it will overlap the other Button's Roll Out Menu. Also, if it matters, the Menu is vertical and is something like this:

I have a project for a client and he wants a menu like this one here [URL] with the slide when you roll over the button. All I can get now is this:
ActionScript Code:
ground_mc.home_mc.onRollOut = function() {
ground_mc.home_mc.slide_home.tween("_width", 0, 0.5, "easeOutSine");
}
[Code].....
Because if you roll fast over the buttons you can't see the slide like on that link.

I'm currently working on a flashsite and are trying to figure out rollover menu buttons. The site has 6 menu buttons and are placed next to each other. I want to put a rollover action on the buttons, that when you rollover a button that the whole button image enlarges and moves in front of the other.
