ActionScript 2.0 :: Define HitArea Of External Assets With Alpha Channels (for Example PNG)?
Nov 14, 2010I copied this from some other forum because it's explain well "...Let�s say you are loading in an external asset that has an alpha channel, such as a PNG. Now let�s say that you want that asset to act like a button, with rollover and click actions. No problem. No reason you can't do that. But, actually, there is a problem. The hit area for that external asset will be its entire bounding box. Take this octy image for example: Even if you rolled over the top left of the image where it�s totally transparent, it will still trigger rollover actions, which is certainly not ideal and could potentially be very confusing for a user..."

Mar 13, 2009If I create a Movie Clip and assign a child Movie Clip as the hit area using this.hitArea = this.mcClipName; is there a way for me to disable that hit area? For instance, mcButton is a button. When I click mcButton, it triggers a function that reveals other content in my movie. I don't want them to be able to click that button again unless they close the new content (using another button that appears with the new content).

Jul 30, 2010Flash CS4

RadioButton Component
I want to remove the so called "HitBox/HitArea" on the RadioButton component - I don't want the user to be able to click anywhere else except the button - and I don't want to just resize the hit area so it's as big as the button (the hit area is a square, and my button is a circle)... can this be done? or does the button absolutely depend on hit area? Part of my reason for asking this, is when I publish my .swf with the radiobutton - the hitarea is displaying as a big white rectangle that is covering the button and part of the text up... why is this?
Flex :: How To Programmatically Enlarge Buttons HitArea
Aug 13, 2010How to programmatically enlarge a flex 3 button's hitArea. Is there some function that I can override? There is no function in the button class called hitArea. What I have done is, I have created a programmaticskin for a button. The form of the skin consists out four arrows. In between the arrows there is nothing (meaning transparent). Because of the way the skin is shaped, it's difficult to click on the button. The skin has alter the buttons hitArea. What I'm looking for is a way to enlarge the hitArea and alter the hitArea shape in to an square. (the hit area must ofcourse still be invisible).
View 4 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Shrink HitArea Of A Sprite On RollOver?
Dec 17, 2011I have a grid of many 10x10 pixel squares separated only by a pixel line. When the user rolls over the sprite, it grows, animating to about 4 times its size--to around 40x40 pixels. The sprite stays large while the mouse is over the sprite, but if the user wants to rollover the neighboring sprite it is obscured by this sprite and its larger size.
Is it possible to shrink the size of the hit area so that even though the sprite grows in size the mouse can still access or trigger the neighboring sprites underneath--to the right, left, top, bottom? I thought about using Mouse_move, but wasn't sure if that would fire off too many events.
I read the following posts. However, my hitArea needs to be the same size or just slightly larger than the original 10x10 pixel sprite. I've had little success. [code]...

My problem is that as I have make the buttons appear whern the item in the listbox is clicked, they are attached to the movie clip and so dont work.I think that one way around this would be to define a seperate hitArea for the listbox item so that this does not interfere with the buttons when they appear
View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Button Hitarea Is Off/ Distorted (weird)?
Aug 13, 2010Got this weird issue going on today. The hitarea, the 'interactive space' of some of my buttons is off/ distorted. I created several buttons in a class with the pen tool and converted them to Buttons. I added some eventlisteners, but when I tested my Movie, I noticed the interactive space of some buttons was gone or at a different position or not the size I made it.
I made another button using the rectangle tool, and tested again. I noticed the visual button was at the place I put it, but the 'interactive space' was at the bottom right. Whenever I would move over this interactive space with my cursor, the visual button would instantly go to the place the interactive space is. Whenever I move the mouse out of the interactive space, the visual button goes back to its inital place.
Check it: (press start, 2 times the right arrow, then the window, then go to one of the buildings in the landscape and click on it)[URL].. Here you see two rectangle shape buttons. Hover over them, no interactivity. Move the mouse somewhat down to the right, and weirdness happens.

Flash8 :: Disable The HitArea On Specific Frames Within A Movie Clip?
Jul 10, 2010I have been having some trouble with a movie clip basically designed to act as a button for a store front for a website.This movie clip has, stored as the front of the movie (i.e. before you click in to edit the movie) the following code:
on(rollOver){
gotoAndPlay("Over");
}[code]..........
This gives the movie the hover over and out effect and animates the button so as once pressed the button expands to give a 'Product Details' view.However, when clicked the info shows up as it should but the hit area which I put into the Movie Clip is still on the info area so none of the contents on this new window are accessible and when the cursor leaves the designated info area the movie clip returns to its first stage as it would appear at the start of the animation.Is there any simple way to disable the HitArea on specific frames within a Movie Clip?

I'm unaware of how to make it so the "Content BOX" is above the rest of the hover links. All the hover links are all into one layer, in a movie clip.
