ActionScript 2.0 :: Making This Scroll Bar Mousewheelable?
Jan 26, 2010
I'd like to make it mousewheel-able, ive seen that someone made it work for them but it was changed too much.This code was over my head, though I made it work for my application.scrollFace is the draggable peice of the bar, scrollTrack is the peice behind it, and btnUp and Down are self explanatory.
Code:
scrolling = function () {
var scrollHeight:Number = scrollTrack._height;
var contentHeight:Number = contentMain._height;
var scrollFaceHeight:Number = scrollFace._height;
In CS5, I want to place content on a frame and give the user the ability to scroll through it all. I know no AS3 and have been using code snippets. How can I use code snippets or some other way to do this?
i have a dynamic text box loaded with data from external text file i need the script to make the data scroll vertically line by line. without any button click
So 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,
I used that MP3 player tutorial, I need to be able to have up to 500 items in the list. Does anyone know where I can find help making the list scroll?? Here is the tutorial I'm talking about [URL]
I've noticed that the default behaviour for a DataGrid's vertical scroll bar is to scroll one row at a time. This is all well and good when the rows are all uniform and small (e.g. displaying a single line of text), but gets really ugly as soon as you have rows with variable heights.I'm curious, is there a way to make DataGrid scrolling "smooth"? For instance, is there a way to have the DataGrid scroll by a set number of pixels, lines of text, etc. rather than scrolling one row at a time?
So far, the only solution I've managed to come up with is to place the DataGrid in a Canvas and have the Canvas do the scrolling instead of the DataGrid. The issue with this approach, though, is that as soon as the Canvas scrolls far enough, the DataGrid headers scroll off-screen. Ideally, I'd like to get the smooth-scrolling nature of the Canvas, but also keep the DataGrid headers visible.
so the problem is that i was following instructions for making scrolling text with a custom button. and i put the following script (the instances are scrollUp_btn and scrollDown_btn):[code]and afther that i auto-checked it and (besides not working in the preview) it indicates these errors:[code]then i switched the '}'s for '{'s or viceversa but it shows me the opposite error. what's wrong ?
I want to make the thumbnails scroll left and right when a button the left and right side is clicked instead of the mouseover left/right scrolling. Essentially when the button is release I want the xml images to scrool to the next set. I have experience making that work with images embedded in flash but not with XML feed images.
What would i have to change to make the file work?
I'm having trouble figuring out how I should go about making an auto scroll functionality for a text area in Flex.
What I have is a text area that loads text from an XML file at startup, and displays it in a text area. There is also an audio track that is plays along with the text. As the words from the audio file is read out, the corresponding word in the text area is highlighted red. What I want to happen is that if the highlighted word is below the visible range of the text area I want to scroll the scroll bar to adjust accordingly to the selection.
I have a movieClip, with other movieClips inside of it, objects that I want when hit to lose points. But when I have the movieClips inside that one, it just has a giant "boundry box". I want the points to go down when you hitting only one of those items,instead it just goes does throughout the entire thing.
There is no way for me to scroll all those objects across the screen without either making a tween on the main timeline for each object (almost 20), or somehow making a giant movieClip scroll all of them all the way across, bypassing the first boundry box, and acknowledging the movieClips.
I have a fully functioning scrollbar (MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_MOVE) and a fully functioning mouse wheel scroll. But I would like some code to move the scroll button according to my contents y position, when using the mouse wheel scroll.
I know you can use the mouse wheel to scroll through text in the flash componenet scroll pane, but is there a way to set it up to work with the code I have posted below?
fscommand("allowscale", "false"); bar.useHandCursor = dragger.useHandCursor=false; space = 5;[code].....
I am loading a different external SWF into each one using Load External SWF behavior.Although each SWF is a different file, they are exact copies of each other (have exact same functionality); all 3 are text boxes with both scrollbar scrolling and mousewheel scrolling.Problem is, when on the stage at the same time, they all three respond to mousewheel scroll at the same time. I need them each to respond to users' mousewheel scroll only if the mouse is over the respective area (so that way they don't all scroll at the same time).The file was developed for me and the developer is not available at this time.
I wrote a short AS program to create a tileList and it functions fine, but I need to be able to scroll the list of pics according to the position of the mouse with out actually moving the scroll bar.... example of what I mean: the farther to the right mouseX is on stage, the faster my tileList scrolls to the right, if mouseX moves to the left of the stage, so does the scroll bar...Here`s my code so far:
import flash.display.Sprite;import fl.controls.TileList;import fl.controls.ScrollBarDirection;import flash.text.TextFormat; var tlc:TileList;[code]........
is there anyway when i use scroll bar component in flash... how do i make it so that i can be controlled by your mouse scroll button.. thing.... ( if its possible )
I've gotten to chapter 5 in my AS 3.0 classroom book but I need to use wisdom today (CHAPTERS before I gain it for myself),I need to create a custom scroll bar with buttons that function just like the UIScrollBar but more visually suited to our projects. the boss demands it.
I found several tutorials on creating the custom scrollBar, however, they don't include the buttons and I'm unable to find a tutorial on how to create a button scroller (I figured I could link them both to my "info_txt" after creating them separately). how to create an AS3 text scrollBar WITH buttons? how to create a nice scroll effect with buttons(if creating the scroll bar and buttons apart then linking them to the same text field is not possible or a faulty way to accomplish this).
I just made a scroll area with buttons and draggable items. All the code is written for vertical scrolling, the content I need to be scrolled is going to be horizontal. how can I rewrite this code to be horizontal scrolling? it seems like the scroll button (the one you drag along) doesn't stay confined to its scroll line either.
scroll pane loads scroll bars for the movie clip as soon as it loads the movie clip, so there is no scroll bars the movies height and width are one, but after its loaded it changes its size to bigger than the scroll pane, but the scroll bars dont show up because of the size of the movie clip when it was first loaded, can anyone help?
I am building a photo gallery and I am loading the thumbnails from an XML file into a scroll pane dynamically. As the scroll pane fills up, it gets wider to accomodate the thumbnailsThere is one row, and eventually, I want to have the user be able to mouse left or right and have the scroll pane scroll, versus clicking on the bar or the left/right arrows. However, in order to accomplish this, I need the scroll bars to disappear!
I am having endless trouble trying to get flash to scroll with a mouse scroll wheel on both PC and Mac. Pixel Breakers code "swfmacmousewheel" seems to be the way to go but despite everyone raving about how amazing it is and showing many version of it working very nicely, I cant get it to work. I've followed all the instructions I can find as carefully as possible but I get nothing. I just want something similar to this > [URL]
