I have a menu made in flash and I have mouse-over animations and whenever I create an invisible button to make a link, the links work, but the mouseover animation disappears. Anyone know how I can create links while retaining the animations?

View 2 RepliesI have a flash movie with some buttons created through action script. Currently the button links are going inside the flash menu, starting an animation. I need them to go to web folder, but I don't know how to do it.
This is the part for the button action :
fm.flashmo_button.onRelease = function(){
_root.page = this._parent.item_no + 1;
_root.play();
};
It creates 8 buttons. I tried this:
fm.flashmo_button.onRelease = function(){
getURL ("[URL]", "_self");
getURL ("[URL]", "_self");
};
When I do this, publish and click on any button, it opens both links. How can I assign for each button, a link? Here's the whole code for the button generation and linking :
stop();
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
flashmo_logo._visible = false;
flashmo_logo._y = 300;
menu_item_group.menu_item._visible = false;
[Code] .....
ok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.

View 5 RepliesI have a .doc file. I want to load the text from that file into Flash. So I convert it into a .txt using a website like this one: http:[url]..... I add in the little code at the beginning (myTextField=) and then Flash loads it fine. The only problem is any marked up text (italics, bold, underline) is lost. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? Or for Flash to load text from something other than a .txt? Or to manually reinsert html tags to the .txt and get Flash to understand them? Or something else I'm not considering?

My text field correctly displays the text in the "PrimaryText.txt" file. The first line of the text shows like this: <b>Testing this text</b> instead of just showing up bold. And the "Render text as HTML" is checked.
I have a movie where the user is able to type text into an input text field. The textfield itself is set to be left-aligned, but I provide the users with 2 buttons for alignment... left-align and center-align buttons. I have it so that if they click on one of the buttons, it sets a variable that stores the alignment with the one desired, and then calls a function that contains all of the textFormat code to display the text with this latest change. That works fine, to an extent....
When the movie is first started, the text is left aligned (as it shoudl be since the text field is set that way)... and then if I type in some text and then hit the 'center' button, it centers it like it should. Now here is where the problem is: If I go to add in more text before what is already there, or select some of the text and begin typing, it immediately left-aligns the text again. It would be annoying for the user to have to hit re-center the text again..and to make things worse, I have it so that when each button is pushed, it shows an 'on-state' ... so when it automatically left-aligns the text, the 'center' button is still active.
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.
View 14 RepliesI have been given the task of updating my company's website, which is written in ASP and has a menu in Flash. I am not experienced in neither technology so maybe you can help me a little bit.We have a menu in flash and just received a new one from an artist. They are pretty similar but the new one brings some new buttons. So far what I did was simply change the .fla and .swf files from my web project to the new ones. The new menu is working, but the buttons and links are messed up. For example, our website main page is called Default.aspx. In the old menu, when you clicked in 'Home' it would take you to Default.aspx. In the new one though, it tries to take you to 'index.aspx', which doesn't exist. This makes me think that the mapping of the links in the menu is something that is part of the Flash code. Am I right about this?
Now, if I am right and I need to modify the flash files to create the correct links, how the heck do I do that? Notepad++ doesn't read the .fla well. What is the best free tool that will allow me to modify a file and compile it into a .swf? I know Adobe Flash would work, but we don't want to pay anything.
I'm trying to create a web based welcome display for a building entrance. The project would include:
1) A wmv movie play constantly on the digital display until some visitors touch the screen (this can be played either locally or on the internet, but it has to be able to go to number 2 when visitors touch the screen)
2) A couple of buttons with department names show up for visitors to choose who they are here to see
3) After the visitor touch on one button, an email is sent to the department
4) the site should go back to the number 1) again
My experience is html, css, php, javascript, and some Flash, but I'm open to learn new skills. Can someone please suggest some good ways to build this site? Is there any tutorials or good sites I can learn from, that would be a bonus. Edit: so I'll use html5 and javascript. I have a couple of further questions, Since this is going to be a kiosk, the same movie is going to be played constantly, everytime after the customer has contacted us, the 'thank you' page is going to show briefly and go back to the first movie page. My question is how can I not let the movie load again and again everytime when there is a customer?
Because the local data space for the display is going to be limited. I've been thinking if I just create one page for the whole process and use a javascript slide to make each page as a div, so the movie div is going to be hiden so it doesn't need to be reloaded again, would that fix number 1) data space concern? I'm thinking of using a horizontal slide like [URL] How can I make the last div (thank you) to show about 5 secs and go to the first div (movie) again?

View 1 RepliesI just upgraded to CS4, and I'm trying to do a simple text-input/dynamic-text project. Here's everything in the project:
1. Input text box. Variable: "thisText". Text color: blue.
2. Dynamic text box. Variable: "intoThis".
3. Button called "button1".
And this is my ActionScript, applied to the first frame (not a symbol):
Code:
thisText="";
button1.onRelease = function () {
intoThis="before "+thisText+" after";
};
When I run it, I get my input text between "before" and "after", but the input text is still blue, and there's a line break between my input text and "after".
How do I stop it from saving the formatting of the input text and inserting a line break? I've done this in previous versions of Flash just fine, so I don't know what's going on here.
I've got it set up for Flash Player 10, ActionScript 2.

View 12 RepliesI have a combobox and when selected i would like to show the data in an input text box. The text box appears on another frame and i was advised to make the combo box invisible after i used it and retain its presence on the timeline. I thought i would be able to duplicate the combobox i needed and place it on the frame with the input text box, but this didnt work, neither did duplicating the actions. Been trying for the last couple of hours and have hit a brick wall, hoping someone can point me in the general direction.
