I have two textfields (txt_name and txt_description), as well as a button btn_pasteasplaintext). I'm trying to make it so when you hover over the button, both the text fields change. This is what I have so far:
Code:
btn_pasteasplaintext.onRollOver = function() {
txt_name.Text = "Paste as plain text";
[code]......
When I put a dynamic texfield in front of a simple button it blocks the action. If I include the textfiel in the button, I can´t change the text later.

View 4 RepliesI've created a loop that will create dynamic textfields by using the information from an array.
This is how I did it:

Im trying to make a dynamic textfield count from 0 - $number (lets say 50) in 3 seconds. So that when I hit 3 seconds then I hit 50.So what im basically doing is calling a function with setInterval and im calling the function every 60 milisecond (3x1000 / 50).
The textfield is following a movieclip (percentagebar) which im tweening from one position to another in the same amount of time - 3 seconds.What im seeing is that the movieclip reaches its end position before the count on the textfield is done.Is this because the mc tween relies on the FPS and will therefore end quicker?And what can I do to make my textfield count end the same time as the tween?
ActionScript Code:
//Defining end number
var pComplete:Number = 50;
//Defining count var
var pCompleteTimer:Number = 0;

View 4 RepliesI've been looking for a tutorial and answer to this for a while but can't find what I'm looking for. I am loading html text into a dynamic textfield, and I have a scrollbar controlling the scroll using the code below. What I want to do is also add scroll up/down buttons and have the scroll bar move in relation to the text scroll. I was just going to use "tracklistingtext.scrollV -- " for the scroll buttons, but right now the scroll bar doesn't recognize the text movement. What do I need to do to get the scroll bar to listen to the text scroll position?
var listTextreq:URLRequest=new URLRequest("tracklist.txt");
var listTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var bounds:Rectangle=new Rectangle(scrollMC.x,scrollMC.y,0,300);

View 3 RepliesI have a button on one layer and a dynamic textfield on a layer above it. The dynamic textfield gets populated from an XML file. When I test the movie, the dynamic textfield actually blocks the functionality of the button. It can't be clicked and the cursor doesn't change when rolling over the button.
View 13 RepliesI've been trying to put a textfield in a button and it's not working.
myButton_btn.myText.text = "this is text";
where myButton_btn is a button and myText the textfield. The button is on the stage, the text in the actions panel. The text is on a layer spanning the up, over, down frames in the button
It seems simple enough but it gives me the error below as if myText doesn't exist:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
Is it not possible to make a button with a dynamic textfield in AS3?
I have another problem I create a button in the library, it has a background graphic on a layer and a textField, the textField has a instance name defined in the properties panels and some text. I manually place some instance of the button on stage, I give them different instance names and voilĂ a new problem arise when with actionscript I try to assign a new text to the textField inside a button it throws me error 1119. A quick look at the menu option debug ->list objects, shows me that the instance name of the textField inside the button it is not what I defined but it was replaced with some random name like "instance66"I did a test with a movieclip instead of a button and I can correctly access my textField with the instance name that I manually defined. Why that can be the same with the button? And if for some arcane reason cant be possible to access a manually defined instance inside a button WHY flash give me the possibility to give an instance name to a dynamic textField inside a button?

View 2 RepliesI created a button (button symbol), inside this button symbol there is a vector shape which will change colours in mouse over and a dynamic text field. i want to use this button symbol in more than one locations in my stage. so i need to change the label of these instances (by changing dynamic text ). but i can't access the dynamic text in as3 using following code,
btnsample.txtbtnlabel.text = "button label"
this code is working fine for a movie clip symbol but not for a button symbol.

View 3 RepliesWhenever I am trying to do, the button rollover work, and put the dynamic text on top of it. The area outside the text is reacting to the rollover, but when I rollover on the text, I lost the rollover effect of the button under.The only way I have found to work around this, is to create another mc, invisible, on top and covering the button and create a script to activate the button rollover effect under... but is it the only way?
I don't have to do all this with static text, but the font react bad with rollovers or some other effects.
I'm using the tutorial from Kirupa found here: http:[rl]....What I want to do is to make a button load the script directly instead of going to a specified frame and load the actionscript from the frame. Is that possible? In this way I could have all elements on one frame, instead of having a frame for every set of images.Here's the actionscript that I want a button to load:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;[code].....
I am working on a project that involves basic buttons in flash. They have 2 functions. One is to go to a url and the other is to execute a movie clip within the flash movie.
I dont want my developers to open flash to code the page links (i.e. contact.html). Is there a way to just add a variable of some kind in the GetURL() and have it pull from an .xml file? It can be very basic. There will be no need to dynamically add more buttons, just simply change link names on the fly.
Have an Input textfield and write e.g. 123 in it (This is on frame 1).Then later in frame 3 I want that number to be shown in a Dynamic textfield.How do I do that?
View 0 Repliesi have two seperate movie clips on two seperate layers on the front page of my template. (loaded dynamically) the layers are on top of one another.
the two movie clips work fine one their own on the template, but when i put them both on the template and I press their respective buttons the TOP movieclip's buttons control the BOTTOM movie clips actions. it's crazy. i've tried to move them around but then it's just the reversed - the bottom buttons control the top movieclip.

View 2 RepliesI have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?
Is there a way to customize / influence / set a gradient fill for an object?
I want to have a gradient background take on different colors depending on an input value... If there is a way, then an explanation / example would be nice... if not, I'll just put a semi-transparent object infront of a black-to-white gradient and assign a solid color to it..
