Making A Button On An Imported PSD?
Aug 12, 2010it seemed like a simple process but I cant seem to get this right... I got a button there, but the URL wont go, ie, the click does nothing.I imported a PSD layered image to Flash CS3, into a new blank layer. I need basically an area of this PSD to be "image mapped" so what I did was create a rectangle with the rect tool, over the area I needed the hot spot.Here I tried to do a transparent box and border (alpha 0) but the outline is still there even though the box is "empty." I did select the transparent box, no color, and tried alpha, both same result)I made that into a symbol, then I double clicked into there to fill in the key pts for the over, hit, etc., states.... I dont have any effects here btw, as simple as we can get.After that I right clicked on the buttonand entered the action script ("reserve" is the name of my button symbol)
reserve.onRelease=function(){

ActionScript 2.0 :: [CS3] : Making A Switch (button)?
Feb 18, 2009I have made a button to function like a switch in that it has both an on and off state. However, I can only get it to switch between the on and off state once when it's pressed, with nothing happening after it has been turned off.The code is as follows:

switch1.onPress = function() {
switch1.gotoAndStop("on");
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {

is there a way to make it so that the switch works continuously, not just one time?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 1/2 :: Making Sure A Button Does Not Get Focussed?
Jun 12, 2010I'm currently building a small search banner which comprises of three fields and a search button.
The banner works great and all the fields respond well however if I use the tab key on the keyboard to move from one field to the next the search button becomes highlighted.
At this point my keydown Enter causes the button to not function as a release but instead takes my file to another portion that is reserved for button B rollover functionality.
Is there anyway I can make sure that by hitting the tab key after the last field will take the user back to the first field?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Making Button Using Labels?

Apr 3, 2011I'm jew to Flash and I'm trying to make an animated button in Flash CS5 that has the ability to turn music on/off. I've followed different tutorials, and right now I'm trying to use an animated movie clip with an "invisible" button over it. I want the animation to swap frames when the button is clicked, and I also want the music to toggle on/off when the button is clicked.For example:When the button is pressed, the animation switches to say "press to turn off music" and the music turns on.But so far, the button isn't working, and the animation won't stop switching frames even when I enter the "stop();" code.Does anyone have any idea how to make it so that the button works together with the animation and music?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Making A Button That Will Light Up When Scroll Over It
Jan 24, 2009So I was working on making a button that will light up when I scroll over it, not instantly but more realisticly. The button starts out gray and when I scroll over it I want it to fade to red.
So I made a new AS3 Flash file and drew a simple gray box, made it a button, and inside the button I made the box a Movie Clip, shape tweened it so that it fades from gray to red in a period of 5 frames.
Now I'm just stuck on the scripting part, I made a new layer inside the movie clip for the script and have this typed in:
Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
rectangle_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mcOver);
function mcOver(event:MouseEvent)void{
play.rectangle_mc
}
I don't even know what import flash.events.MouseEvent; even means.
But what I'm trying to accomplish here is to make the shape tween Movie Clip only play when the cursor is over the button. So that when I scroll over the button it fades from gray to red. Sounds like a plan, but I can't figure out the function part where it says play.rectangle_mc,
