ActionScript 2.0 :: Loops Button Jpg Text?
Nov 7, 2005
I am very new to all this and want to learn but am struggling to get the thing explained so that I understandDo you know of a good simple tutorial that explains how I can use loops to load jpgs and text sometimes from a single button and sometimes from multiple buttons.To press one button and load one jpg and text is ok but to get one button that each time it is pressed loads the next picture with its text fromexternal files is something else and when I then need several buttons that each load a different jpg with its text wow.

I am making animation button by movie clip, which has up, over, out and down state animations.
Using addEventlister and adding mouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, ROLL_OUT and Click.
It works almost OK but when I put and stop mouse at around corner of the hit area of this button, animation starts loops playing between over and out state.
Is any way to avoid it?

I have a input text field where you type in a number 1 - 10 and hit submit. depending on what number you type it will populate that many text inputs fields through a for-loop. I want to be able to fill out all the populated input fields and hit a submit button, and trace back all the values . right now i can only get it to trace back the last text input field value.
ActionScript Code:
import fl.controls.TextInput;
import fl.controls.Button;

I am making a flash movie, using text moving across the screen in semi transparency, sort of as a background. In the center is a white box, and content within that box. The semi transparent text scrolls back and forth throughout the movie. But when the movie loops back to the beginning , the white box and content within it vanish for a second...then reappear as the movie begins again. I don't want that microsecond vanish to happen but I don't know how to prevent it.

I have a button that is a movie clip that is set up with animations triggered with MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT event listeners. The glitch is that once the mouse is over the button ... each ensuing pixel that the mouse is moved, loops the animation again. That probably didn't make a whole lot of sense, so I posted the file on my test site [URL]. You have to drag your mouse slowly across the button to see this. The bottom part of the button works as I'd expect. When you roll over the text at the bottom of the button, everything functions as it should. The looping problem starts when you roll over the image portion of the button. For some reason it considers each consecutive pixel rolled over to be a new event and consequently triggers the "over" animation again.
The code I have is below. I've commented out the MOUSE_OUT function for now. There is also a screenshot at the above link of my Layers palette for the button clip in question. I put a "stop" label at each frame that has an action so you see the actions used.
oneBedButton_mc.buttonMode = true;
oneBedButton_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, overEffect);
//oneBedButton_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, outEffect);
function overEffect (e:MouseEvent) {
oneBedButton_mc.gotoAndPlay("over");}
function outEffect (e:MouseEvent) {
oneBedButton_mc.gotoAndPlay("out");}

i have about 25 slides (or MC's) and they contain dynamic text fields. I have an admin area setup where i can change the content in that dynamic text field from within my admin area. Now my problem starts rather than writting 50 functions or whatever per MC as there might be more at certain stages or less.
I'm trying to figure out the best way to write a loop which displays whatever text from the mc that is currently open in my admin area so i can edit it...(i have this working for one only) that's why i was thinking a for loop would do the trick.

I'm stucked here. I want the font type "BauhausMedium" to apply when ft_01 is clicked, font type "Haettenschweiler" to apply when ft_02 is clicked, etc... at the same time I want all" ft_01a", "ft_02a", "ft_03a" movieclips to hide except for the movieclip similar to the clicked button. E.g. if "ft_02" was clicked ft_02a to be visible =true and rest to be visible = false (ft_01a, ft_03a).

I'm trying to create a 'tickertape' (horizontal scrolling text that reloads and loops in a masked window once finished playing). At the moment for visual purposes I have generated the following. This is linking to a movieclip at the moment but doesn't loop once finished... it just keeps incrementally scrolling until it probaby ends up in infinity somewhere...

I downloaded a flash template and have modified it to suit our company but there is something that I can't do. When the file loads in the browser, music immediately plays and loops until you click a button to stop the music. On our video page, we have video
that we need to play that has sound in it. How do I get the background music to stop when my video plays without having to go up and stop the music manually. The videos are loaded via an external XML document and there are no buttons in the FLA file to link code to. the website is [URL]

I want to take a static text field, convert it into a button, and use it as a button. I need it static, because I changed orientation, and I do not know how to do that otherwise. The problem is, even though I converted it to a Button symbol, it does not work when I test the movie. It works fine with "Enable simple buttons", but when I test it, the button is not there, no change in mouse cursor, no reaction at all.So this is what I did:
Made text. // static, not selectable, Orientation: vertical left to right, / //rotated; Two filters: Drop Shadow and Glow;
Converted text field to Button - Symbol (scrollBT)
Editing the Button,I put the same content (the static text field) in all four frames: No luck, not working. without the Hit frame filled (which I think doesn't really make a difference): No luck, not working.Tried again, converting the static text field in the button into a Graphic Symbol: No luck, not working.Tried again, and put some differences in the frames for "ON" and "OVER" etc.: No luck, not working.Tried again, duplicating a similar, working button, edited it, and: No luck, not working.
To the button itself and the AS: The button will be a scroll-button for a text field, with different scroll speeds on rollover and press, but nothing else. The code for that I have (I think). It's something like (and please excuse my incorrect syntax here, but I'm typing from memory; still, I use the Script-Assistant and my syntax is apparently correct; it's also working with other buttons):
on {rollOver} {
function (scroll) {
textfieldtxt.scroll - = 1;}[code]....
I'm at the end of my wits. The only difference I can tell from other (working) buttons I did the same way, is that the scrollBt does not do anything except scrolling, while all of the others have frame actions (gotoAndplay etc.) associated with them.

If I have say 7 buttons, each containing text that changes color on rollover using the "Up" "Over" and "Down" keyframes in the buttons' timeline. Is there a simple way to get the button's text to change color when clicked, stay that way, and then change back to the original color once one of the other 6 buttons are clicked?
The only thing I can come up with is writing pages of code for each button that changes the color of every other button regardless of whether it was active.

I'm designing an interface for a class, and the buttons that I am using all have multiple functions.For example, when the story button is clicked, I need the mc to stop playing and change to text (in the same window/screen, just no mc playing). The mc is 31 frames long, but if there's a way to just make it loop continuously until told not to, Currently, my code looks like this:
stop();
story_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,story);
function story(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(32);}credits_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,credits);[code]...
When I click the button, the mc does not stop playing and the text does not show up.

I really need to make a transparent button, so it needs to just look like floating text but with button capabilities. But I was confused about a couple things: Initially I was using the "FPushButtonSymbol" but was unable to make it transparent, although I tried like this:
[Code]....
This left some shadow though So, I utlized a post from ezboard.com, which said to just make a square and then do Insert->Convert to Symbol and make it a button symbol. When I converted into a symbol, I also exported it for use with ActionScript. So I have been making instances of my new button (TermButt).... But can I still use generic button functionality like labeling, text fonts/colors, button size:

I created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.
Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.

I am a Flash novice who has worked through a couple of the standard introductory books on Flash in Actionscript 3 and some of the online tutorials. However I cannot work out how to do the following: A button A (I know how to design buttons including invisible ones) is on the stage. A user clicks on this button which then causes a text to appear at another location of the stage. This text includes an invisible button B. The text tells the user to click on it with the result that the text, including the invisible button B, disappears but if the user reclicks button A then the text with button B should appear again.

I want to make some buttons and use the buttons.fla library. The button is inserted and given an instance name. A second button is inserted (same kind) and given a new instance name. But when I am trying to change the label text in one of my buttons the text is changing on the other button as well. I believed they where separate instances?

when it comes to flash but managed to learn enough this past week to get a simple website up (getting laid off so scrambling to get portfolio online!). I have an upload test at lisedupuis.net. In my work section I have a bunch of thumbnails (buttons) for all of the video. Basically, I want to add a text field under the video player which will contain a movie clip name. I want to set it up so that when you mouse over the thumbnails the text changes to the correct movie clip name. I thought maybe creating an event listener might work but can't seem to figure out how to write it. Been looking online and not finding exactly what I need and I am in a huge rush.

I have a dynamic text box that acquires text from a txt file.
Sometimes the text is greater than the text field so I want to be able to show a page up and page down button. However I do not want these displayed if the text does not exceed the field.
Currently the buttons are always displayed.
I understand how to get the text field info, I do not understand the "easy" bit of only loading the buttons if the text field size is exceeded.

Have a 'text button' that is animated, which has modified text based on a different button that is pressed. In the website, I want the text "Teaching Through Inquiry" to change based on the letter clicked. The animation is tweened, and each letter plays the same animation -- I want the objects to modify to change what comes up.[code]...

Shouldn't flash detect these before running the script and crashing and having to force quit and restart (and flash startup takes a while)? Like just give an error: infinite for loop or something? And this happened to me a bunch when working with for loops within for loops, when I accidentally used the same variable for both loops, so of course it never ended and crashed flash.

The scenario is to create a lotto game that matches 6 user inputted numbers with 7 randomly generated numbers. The 7th number is a special case (eg bonus ball) WOULD LIKE TO SHOW A KIND HEARTED FALSH GENIUS ALL OF THE SCRIPT IF POSS! (its not tooo long) This code works, but it just outputs the default message: There seems to be a problem with my arrays not comparing? Part of the code is: (prioir to this the user inputs numbers, they are copied to text areas beginning with O, on a button press) On a second button press randomly generated number appear to a timer. //compareResult checks how many numbers match between the two sets of numbers to determine winnings.

I'm pulling data from an xml doc and created 4 XMLLists to hold the children of the 4 different elements. Inside the onLoad function, I created a series of for loops to go through each list. But Flash stops after going through the first two. I'm very puzzled by this. I got around it by creating a 2nd onLoad function for the last 2 lists, but should I be using a different loop? Curious.. I inserted a break after the first 2 and then the 3rd loaded up...
