I've searched the disable button backlog but am yet to find something of use.On the release of 'biog_btn', which fades content to 0 and slides the page away I need to disable 13 other buttons. At the moment they are set to alpha = 0 but they are still clickable.Is there some code that will disable all those other button without me having to write .enabled = false for every one?

View 3 Repliescan some one fullscreen and how to disable the esc button?
View 2 RepliesIn my code, when a user clicks on a button, I set the alpha of the button to 50 and set enabled=0. This works to essentially disable and grey out the button. The problem is that even though the button has been disabled, it still sits in the over state until the user moves the cursor off the hit area... Funny, no?
Since you can't tell a button what frame to go to, how do I get it to go back to its up state (without recreating all my buttons as movieclips and doing the whole thing manually)?

if you click on the middle Character a popup window will open at that time i want all other buttons disable so that we cant see the small box on mouseover.[url]...
I have some code similar to the following:
ActionScript Code:
//
//
var box = new Sprite();
box.graphics.lineStyle(10, 0xFF0000);
[code]...
If you click the box, its alpha is set to 1 rather than .1 because of an errant MOUSE_OUT event.What is the right way to fully disable this button when it is clicked?I'd rather not remove the event listeners because I have a bunch of different MOUSE_OVER functions on many different buttons and keeping track of which function is with which button and whether or not the listeners are already assigned seems like way too much work just to properly disable a button.
I have a button that when you roll over it a big window pops up, but then when you click on it, it pops the window up again, now its not a problem but i would like to know if i can disable the click function somehow. so that only the roll over works.
I know you can probably use a movie clip and just tell it with actionscript to load when rolled over, but i don't know how
I have some buttons that play an external swf inside an empty movie clip on the main timeline. I was wondering what Actionscript I need to disable the button when it is pressed. I want the button to still have roll over functionality and everything, but I just want the swf to load once when the button is pressed. Below is the script I am using right now.
on (release) {
//load Movie Behavior
if(this.content == Number(this.content)){

I need to know how to disable a button
i used :
_root.(buttonname).enabled=false;
for buttons which is on the stage directly but it doesn't work with buttons that inside a movie clip.
[code]How come I cant disable the button by this function?
View 1 RepliesI have a movie and after the intro the enter button takes me to the next frame (11) and stops. there i have a drop down menu with button instances on each of the drop downs. The drop down is in a movie clip so i am using on (release) {_root.gotoAndPlay("s1"); } on the button instances to take me to root level to say frame 12 and stops. Each button instance has a different frame label to go to, s1, s2 etc - the idea being that back at root level i can have the content of each of the buttons on each of the frame labels (s1 at frame 12 , s2 at frame 13 etc) .... this works fine except the drop down menu in each of these new frames retains the action script on the drop down button instances - this is fine for all the buttons that will take me to another content page at root level - what i dont want is the AS to remain on the button for the page i am currently on - cos if you click on it it takes you back through the intro etc to get to its frame label again .
View 3 RepliesI need to disable a button once the user has clicked it! I also need the colour of the button to change once it has been clicked as well (I need it to just grey out - not sure if this can be solved using actionscript??) The only method I could think of of accomplishing this is to put each button in their own UILoader, but I'm hoping there is a simpler method!?
View 2 RepliesI need my buttons to stay put, but, I need to figure out away to make them stop working temporarily.

View 4 RepliesI have a site with 908 buttons. Basically a person clicks a button, makes a donation (through paypal) and then that button gets their name displayed when the mouse hovers over it. Essentially the button becomes the property of the person who makes the donation. how to disable each button when someone clicks it. Disabling a button isn't the problem. I need it disabled only when the person has made a valid donation. Each button has a unique instance name (b001 - b908). There must be a way.
View 9 RepliesAs the subject says, how do I disable a button once it's pressed?For example:- Home page loads, disable the Home button- Click on Contact page, disable Contact button, re-enable Home button.I've tried removeEventListener, used button mode true/false and nothing seems to work for me... Unless I'm doing it all wrong...
View 1 RepliesI have a button which I use for sending a message. When the message text is empty, it should not be possible to click the button.
This is all fine and not an issue. The only thing that is bugging me is the fact that I can disable the send button but the image does not get disabled (like I would expect).
Is there a way to do this elegantly because I don't want to provide a sendicon_disabled.png and change it myself (I don't think this should be my job).

I know this is a question that comes up, but there has to be another way that I haven't found, maybe simply because I was search for the right keywords.Common enough question, I'm sure; I have a flash program, published in a projector and I don't want the menu to pop-up when the mouse is right clicked.Stage.showMenu = false; and fscommand("showmenu",false)have both been tried, disables most of the menu, but the drop down menu for global settings still appears.There has to be a way to set it so the right mouse button is off entirely when in the program. I've seen script that recognizes each of the different mouse buttons to assign a different response, I've seen a script designed to turn off the mouse so it can't be clicked during a tween transition; there has to be a way to program an event, or something, that will recognize the button and ignore all input from it. What is it?

View 3 RepliesMy main movie is on level 0, of course. On level 0 I created an empty movie clip named "container". Now, I load another movie into container, and I loaded it on Level 1. Now, I want to put a code inside a Movie Clip that is on level 1, which is the new, loaded movie that will disable a red button on level1. Here's the code I used:[code]That worked to no avail as well. So, I'm wondering if the code that disables and enables buttons only work with a handler? Like an onClipEvent or on (release) handler? I'm puzzled right now, because this is really elementary but i just don't know it right now.
