Flash 8 Im very new to AS and I hope this don't seem stupid. All I want to do is double the height of an object every time its clicked. Here is what I have so far and it works, but only one time. I want to be able to click it again and have it double again.
function changeBox(){
myBonus._height = 19 * 2;
}
myBox.onPress = changeBox;
I'm trying to get it so whenever the object is clicked it reduces in opacity by 10% each time, and if it gets to 10% and it's clicked again it stays at 10% instead of going to 0 I got it to keep going down in opacity fine I just don't know the code to keep it from going lower. this is what I have so far

buttons are programmed identical but some of them have to be double or tripple clicked (depending on the level they are in) in order to access the designated location.What does it mean? Is there an error in code and something has to be rearranged differently?all of the top menu buttons work with a single click, except for the first one "about us" which has to be double clicked.

import fl.controls.ColorPicker;
import fl.events.ColorPickerEvent;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
[code]....
I was going to use this code and modify it to work with the previous code.
ActionScript Code:
var OBJECTcolorInfo:ColorTransform = OBJECT.transform.colorTransform;
cpOBJECT.addEventListener(ColorPickerEvent.CHANGE, colorChange);
[code]....
A quick note, the OBJECT is there to show it's supposed to refer back to the "["bg"+String(i)]" bit is. I just don't know how to tell the code to look for it.My main goal is to have an object, for instance a rectangle, be draggable (and placeable). You would then set a series of color pickers to said rectangle, changing areas of it's colors once you double click it.However, the rectangle must move as a whole and not have to have each individual color part be repositioned along with it.

View 4 RepliesI have a problem with an flash object. The object is an expanding topbanner, but when retracted, the on mouse over effect still appears on the invisible part of the banner. The code is the following:
<div id="exp_banner" style="width:930px; height:180px; overflow: hidden; position: absolute; z-index: 100;">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="test.swf" width="930"

I have tried to add a style height to the object with an height of 180px, but then the banner scales down.
I would like to make a movie clip's height change when it is clicked. However, I can't figure out how to do it so that it smooth like a tweening.
View 4 RepliesI have some text that is scrolling across the page like a news ticker you would see at the bottom of your TV screen on a news channel.This scrolling text has anchor tags on it (clickable links). It is a dynamic text box inside a movieclip. Problem is, I'm using the build in AS3 Tweener to animate the text across the page and 99% of the time I cannot click the links. The mouse cursor turns to a hand when I hover over the scrolling text but clicking does nothing. If I click really fast and randomly it just might work but it hardly ever does.Do I need to apply a 'display: block' type style to it?Should I use a different tweener?

View 1 RepliesI'm making a point-and-click game in Flash and the goal of the game is to click on the right objects in a room. Say, if the main character says 'find my chair', and the player clicks on the chair, it's the good object and an audio file plays. If the player clicks on a spoon, it's the wrong object and an audio file plays. My question is: how can I do that in Flash (in ActionScript, right)? I've made a different layer for each object.

View 2 RepliesIf I create a rectangle with 100px width and 100px height and then rotate it, the size of the element's "box" will have increased.With 45 rotation, the size becomes about 143x143 (from 100x100).Doing sometimes like cos(angleRad) * currentWidth seems to work for 45 rotation, but for other bigger angles it doesn't.At the moment I am doing this:
var currentRotation = object.rotation;
object.rotation = 0;
var normalizedWidth = object.width;

View 2 RepliesSo ive made the switch from AS2.0 to 3.0, and like many fellow casual flashers, I'm having a bit of a tough time
I understand that below, the first trace works because the mouse event comes from the clicked object, and that the second produces an error because the ENTER_FRAME event is attached to the stage, so e.target is the stage. i realise i can attach the listener to the obj, but i need it on the stage for what im doing
How can i reference the clicked object from run() ?
ActionScript Code:
obj.addEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, doMouseDown );
function doMouseDown(e:MouseEvent):void {
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, run);
[Code].....
I'm trying to do something like this:
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseIsDown );
function mouseIsDown( e:MouseEvent ):void

View 2 RepliesI have a flash shooter game and after a user shoots a bottle, i play the destroy animation and remove it from the screen. The problem is when the user click too fast, like superman fast it enters on the method twice, no matter what.
Here is the code:
public function bottleHasClicked(bottle : BottleBase) : void {
bottle.mouseEnabled = false;
collectedBottles++;

The first thing i do is to disable the object mouse, and it still happens. I only enable it when im gonna show the bottles again.
