ActionScript 2.0 :: Disabling Buttons Conundrum?

Dec 20, 2004

I'm building a site at the mo with pop up that can be activated and covers the main page with a new info page. This popup can be activated at anytime and will cover whatever is in the main page. Trouble is, buttons are still active from the main page when popup is displayed and given the site design the only way to stop this problem is disabling the buttons below. What is a good way of doing this? I was hoping flash keeps some sort of array of mc content and the buttons could be identifed this way but somehow i don't think this is likely!

IDE :: Enabling And Disabling Buttons?

Jul 20, 2009

i have a movie with this button which disables it upon loading of external .swf file:

on(release) {
loadMovieNum ("lg_01.swf", 2);
i1.enabled = false;
}

the site in progress: [URL]..How do i tell said .swf file to re-enable the "i1" instance from the original .swf file it loaded into? I guess where I'm getting lost is how to tell one .swf to affect another.

I think if i knew this little tidbit, I would most definitely be able to have more control over my sites.

I'm a self-taught novice actionscripter and obviously don't know enough to do something as simple as this.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Sliding Menu, Disabling Buttons?

Nov 25, 2003

I've created a sliding menu that has a left button and a right button. Each button slides a background movieclip to the left or right. The background mc eases into position when one of the buttons is clicked. Problem is that buttons can still be clicked while the mc is easing into position. This throws off my x coordinate positioning of the mc. I've tried disabling the buttons and enabling them again at a few different points in my code. I've also tried using a time delay to enable the buttons but my logic isn't working. I've stripped the code that was not working out.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Disabling Buttons On Lower Layer?

Mar 17, 2003

I'm working on a test where the user must find specific error keywords on a document and click on them to identify them as errors. After they click on an error, a movieclip popup displays to tell them they did a good job and explain why the error is an error.

On the movieclip that pops up, I've got a standard X close button to kill the movieclip. The problem is, when you click on the close button, the 20 buttons on the document below are still active, and can still be clicked on. Is there a simple way to disable them all, but only when a popup movieclip is being displayed?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons Within Movie Clips Are Disabling?

Oct 8, 2003

so...i've got these buttons in movie clips. the buttons are animated for mouseover and i've also got an action on the first frame of the main timeline to get the buttons to stay active when clicked on, so the view knows where he is.the problem with this is that any time i go to put an action on the button itself to pull up an external .swf or whatever, the buttons stop animating and/or stop staying "depressed" on the active sheet.

I am wondering how can one stop the user from clicking on a button (MC) without using btn.enabled = false.example: i have a menu that has buttons which have tweens on rollover and onRelease events. I want to be able to click on home for e.g. disabling all other buttons to avoid user clicking but still keep the rollover. I have tried btn.enabled = false and of course i dont want to disable the entire btn and instead i want to disable just the onRelease event or even avoid the mouse from clicking until the animation finish.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Arg - New Clip Conundrum?

Aug 19, 2004

I've been reading this site for a while now but it's only now that I have a problem that I turn to you guys in the forums for help... stupid unsociable me. I'm new to ActionScript development, and I've been able to figure out pretty much everything on my own so far, but this particular problem really has me stumped. I'm totally at my wits end here, so maybe one of you smarty folks can help me out.

The following code is a stripped down version of what I'm trying to do with a game-type application. Basically I create some new movie clips, put them in an array, give them each unique attributes, and then refer to those attributes later in another function. When I do this, the attributes for ALL clips have all been set to the attributes of the last clip created! Which in this case means that all the moving elements have the same velocity, when really I want them each to have different ones.

CS3 Variable To Line Colour Conundrum?

Mar 8, 2011

He doesn't do much, just an integer what adopts a value between 0-100. I also have a line drawing function. He does lots of things and draws lots of pretty lines. All in just one colour mind.I'd like to be able to change that colour based upon the value of 'n', but I don't know how to convert this integer into the 0x000000-0xFFFFFF format used by linestyle. I can scale and convert 0-100 into a hex string but I'm stumped at how to prepend 0x to the string and how to use this within linestyle...Here's what I have so far....

//rgb = n*16777215/100;
//hex = rgb.toString(16);
//mcImage.lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100, true, "normal", "none");

ActionScript 3.0 :: Button Not Disabling?

Aug 20, 2009

I have seen several threads in regards to tbe button enable/disable, mouseEnabled usage. However. I have tried both methodologies in my code, and they don't respond. Continues to give me the alpha change and color text change, but not disabling the button after I roll off of it.Ultimate goal,to disable the currently selected button, leave the alpha at .4 and the text color to remain in its selected state/color. Everything works beautifully for my buttons other than disabling the selected one. Any thoughts or suggestions on what I can do to make the below code work better?Code called in previous function in class to add the MouseEvents to the buttons:
