I'm currently working on a flashsite and are trying to figure out rollover menu buttons. The site has 6 menu buttons and are placed next to each other. I want to put a rollover action on the buttons, that when you rollover a button that the whole button image enlarges and moves in front of the other.
View 1 RepliesI want to rollover a button and have it trigger the rollover state of another button. The buttons overlap. The one on top is transparent and smaller than the bottom button. So far I think I have the AS3 to handle the rollover of the top button, but I don't know how to trigger the other button's rollover state.

I'm using actionscript 1.0 and 2.0 on flash Pro 8 and keep getting an error when I test the movie. Here is the error:

I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
The animation/rollover works well but it still abruptly stops when I rollover another button. The link below is an example on what I want to accomplish.
View 1 RepliesI work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I've created a flash movie, and I want to make it a banner. I had an idea in mind to have the movie load and play in loop. When a user rolls over the movie (entire movie) the movie changes to something else (like an info movie). [URL]. Attached is my FLA file
View 5 RepliesCan someone tell me the simplest way to add a rollover sound to a standard button in flash ? I was trying to get a small chirp sound to play on rollover of a button. Im using the standard flash button creation hierarchy. Once the fourstages of the button are set. I created a layer above it called sounds then added a blankkeyframe to the over position and dragged the chirp mp3 file onto the stage over the button. Then when i run the webpage the sound effect doesnt play a expected. I tried playing with the dropdownlist of property settings too such as Sound : and theres a dropdown list. I chose chirp.mp3 there but still no luck. Tried some other sync settings too but not able to make this work.
View 1 RepliesI read the article about complex button RollOver/RollOut effects ([URL].. but i found that when i press ctrl+enter to view the button the animation plays to the last frame and doesnt go back to the start until i rollover it, then it resets and works properly. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and how i can fix it? Im using flash MX. Also, how can i change the hit area for a button that's been made this way?

I searched but I didnt find my answer either on Google and StackOverflow (not even a single tutorial on it).I would like to create a rollover highlight on a button, like the windows 7 taskbar. The highlight moves and is function of where the mouse is on the button. I dont want any image on my button (only color gradient) to keep a standard component.

When one of my buttons is rolled over, I want text and a movieclip to appear. When the button is no longer rolled over, I want the text and movieclip to disappear.The way that I was going to do this was to have anchor_mc as an anchor, and upon rollover have the movieclip play from inside the anchor (as its at the exact X & Y that its needed at) and dynamic text appear.
1) Is there an alternative way of doing the below, to avoid so many listeners?
2) Can the below functions be merged into one?I've tried merging them into one using IF statements, for example:
if(event.target.name == line1)
{
line_output.text = "This is a test made by the MonkeyTest that has previously messed up
And testing a new line";
gotoAndStop(2);
}
However this does not work, and gives an error.
3) I had to get the background to display by moving to the next frame. I could not work out how to get the textbox to appear at a specific XY, or how to get the textbox to disappear after a rollover. Is there a better way to do this, or is what I'm doing acceptable? (NOTE: Textbox is a Movieclip)
AS3 code is attached below.
Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();

i have created a navigation bar for my website and i need to add a url to the movie clip, it has roll over and roll out but when i put the url on it cuts out the roll over and roll outs.. what do i do?
im using the coding...
on (rollOver) {_root.home.gotoAndPlay(2)
}
on (rollOut) {_root.home.gotoAndPlay(1)
}
I'm constructing an area with selectable buttons that transition and appear every 10 frames. During these 10 frame transition periods I don't want the buttons to be selectable and if possible to disable the rollover.
I've tried creating an If statement on the addEventListener so that it only works when currentFrame is 11,21,31 etc but this didn't work. I then also tried the same principal on the function to which the Event Listener relates but still no success.

View 2 RepliesI figured out why my external, embedded player wouldn't link back to my site: I was using _self rather than _blank, which I'm sure many of you knew.
However, my next stumbling block is that any subsequent link now needs to be authorized if you are using a browser with a pop-up blocker (IE7, Firefox, etc.). What I've noticed is that YouTube has somehow completely bypassed this, and I need to figure out how.
First, check out this site for an example of my player and YouTube's player on the same page: [URL]
Note in the lower-right the YouTube clip. Click that first. Notice how the pop-up blocker doesn't ask for permission? Then, beneath that is my "Comic Wonder" player. If you click on any links, it'll work, but only if you allow your pop-up blocker to allow it.
how YouTube has bypassed that?
Good day to everyone. I'm here today to seek help about Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. The story starts when one day, my boss asked me to make a flash presentation about their upcoming user training for a newly developed software. I was enthusiastic and excited about it because it's been a long time that I did not use Flash (note that I don't have any experience in ActionScript 3.0). At first, everything was a bit rough as I need to recall how to properly use the frames to create a successful animation. As I was about to finish the project, my boss approached me again and asked if I could insert a menu page in front so that the users won't have to replay the whole thing again just to look for a little something on that part of the movie. So yea, at first I was abit hesitant to accept. I said that it will work with Powerpoint. But she's a total pusher and I was forced to say yes. Now I'm having this problem about how to make a flash button load a swf movie.I've tried searching all over the net for tutorials but most of the times the "getUrl" and other stuff are said to be outdated.
View 1 RepliesI want my button in a flash movie to open a window like this
[URL]
It shows the picture in full size with a close-able x in the corner. Is that possible? I'd do it in the flash movie, however some of the pictures are bigger than the movie itself (it's a style and it looks good) just that...
I'm trying to get an button in flash to open a pop-under window in the browser using JavaScript. So far I have had no success. Both functions are working fine independently but I can't get them to communicate with each other. Please see attached code.
View 1 RepliesWhat I want is to be able to insert a button into the flash document, and when someone clicks it, to have it open a new window and go to a certain url. To see what I am kind of talking about, go to my website, where I have the flash document without any kind of interactivity. It is the "Connect with TFC" flash file, on the right side of the page.

I'm encountering a problem with the getURL function. When I have a button with the following AS
Code:

getURL("http://www.google.com", "_blank");

View 8 RepliesWhen a user clicks on a URL, I want the new page to open up in a new window (or tab),instead of always in _self, which of course replaces the movie. I've trace'd the htmlText contents, and see TARGET="" where it's building the clickable links, which I assume the browsers interpret as the same thing as _self. Is there some better way to change the target for any URLs, short of doing a search and replace of the htmlText field
