ActionScript 2.0 :: Menu Text Above Scroller It Controls The Scroller?
Jul 29, 2005
my problem is that if you go over the menu text above my scroller it controls the scroller. I wan this areas movement to have no effect on the scroller below. is there a way to script my scroller to set it to this?
I am trying to build a vertical slide scroller based on a tutorial for a horizontal slide scroller and am having difficulties undertanding what values I need to change in the code for the slider mc in order to make it work. The horizontal slider is quite smart [code]
I would like to use it as a horizontal scroller for an image gallery. Just to clarify a horizontal dragger and a horizontal stage motion for image viewing.
fscommand("allowscale", "false"); bar.useHandCursor = dragger.useHandCursor=false; space = 20;
I can find tons of articles/tutorials on custom scrollers but none of them actually replace the browser scroller. If the browser is made smaller the custom scroller and the browser scroller are there. [URL]...

The horizontal slider is quite smart and there is additonal functionality attached to it to affect it's movement which I'm not too worried about although it would be nice)
Code: // set up content_mc info contentRight = _root.content_mc._x;
In flex 4 I'm using a PopUpButton with a Menu populated with records from the database.For one of our clients, the data provider of the Menu has more than 50 elements.When they click on the Menu it expands beyond the height of the screen without showing a scroller or responding to the mouse-wheel.So in effect there is no way to access the lower items on the menu.So I need to somehow restrict the height of the menu and add a scroller.The rowCount and maxHeight commands are having no effect.
var companyContextMenu:Menu=new Menu(); companyContextMenu.maxHeight=400; companyContextMenu.rowCount=20;
How do I make the arrow at the bottom of my drop down menu, scroll further down to show the other items when the mouse is on the OVER state?My menu has 100 items, but I'm able to show only 5 items a time. I decided to have a arrow at the bottom, so when the viewer rolls the mouse over it the menu starts to scroll and show from button 6 onwards untill the mouse rolls out of the arrow. How to do it in actionscript?
How do I add a UI scroller bar to an existing drop down menu which I created using buttons?
I tried to insert an UI SCROLLER bar. but it didn't work. I'm using the folowing code in the Main button. I need the drop down menu to appear with the scroller. on(rollOver){ contactmenu.play();}
I am building a full screen image gallery. I would like to have a thumbnail scroller menu at the bottom. As the user mouse overs a particular thumbnail, the image will appear fullscreen behind the thumbnail menu. I would like it so that the image appeared immediately as the user mouses over (i.e. the image is somehow already loaded in) as opposed to each image being loaded as the cursor is rolled over.
There are several images, so loading them all prior to running the application really isn;t an option. How could this be achieved? Are there any tips/tricks that can be used?
I want to copy 4 separate columns of text from one application into flash and be able to scroll the columns up and down. I never used flash so I'm lost and don't have a clue where to start. I'm using Flash CS5.
i'm looking for a text scrolling script with ease.is this possible with the scroll function?does it creates problems when you want it to you for sharp rendered texts?
I am having the worst time creating a text scroller with CSS. I just wanted a simple text scroller for my site for the news. I noticed that when I use the Font FFF Harmony it does not show up in MAC only on PC.
I've created a horizontal dynamic text scroller (like latest news ones found on some websites) in flash 8 with as2, and this swf file reads data from a .txt file. the problem is that when change the txt in the file, it doesnt show in my browser until i clear its cache. But if a client doesnt clear cache he will get the old text...I would like to know how to prevent the browser from caching that swf content, any code or script will be most welcomed. I've tried to add <meta> tags in my html but of no use.
my embed code is like this: <embed width="980" height="34" align="left" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
I'm using the dynamic text scroller from [URL] found at [URL] Here's a link to my zipped files too... [URL]
1) I can't figure out how to have URL links in the text that loads.
2) How can I make the scroller refresh to allow for new text in the dynamic text area. The content changes alright, but the scroller stays in the same position and if it wasn't needed initially, the scroller disappears and doesn't return on new text.
I want to make a Flash app that will scroll text whilst music plays. The music part is easy, but scrolling the text...I've tried simply importing ALL of the text, resizing, and scrolling that one giant object upwards, but when the screen was full of text it began to slow down. I need the speed uniform to sync it with the music in the background.
I could have a 70,000,000,000 frame movie and move each element individually, avoiding the heavy load, but the amount of work on my end this would require would be so astronomical that it just wouldn't be worth it. Ideally I want something like a component that I can dump text into and have it deal with making the scroll speed uniform.
It would also be a major plus point if it could be used/created by another program, so that someone without Adobe Flash could produce a similiar kind of movie simply by putting in their text and MP3 file and hitting a "Generate" button.
I dowloaded and played with the following scroller on this site... [URL] I see where the text is under Actions but I'm wondering if I can input hyperlinks and email links as well or will I only be able to use this with plain text. If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link. Sorry, I don't know much about flash and just trying to make a simple text box with scrolling capability that will allow hyperlinks, bold, etc...
this post references the files listed at:i've implemented a dynamic text box that calls a txt file into it. it uses a scroller that i found a tutorial on:i've got everything working splendidly - everything EXCEPT the scrolling bar... as you can see, it scrolls up and down just fine, but doesn't control the text.i've pretty much exhausted my search through the actionscript to locate the problem and i can't find it.
I found a simple and effective text scroller in your tutorial archive by Billy T -[URL] The internal as was just what I was after except I would like the dragger bar to be on the left instead of the right. I've changed x's to y's and added co ords for left positioning but I've had no response. I feel there could be a very simple answer to this one.
Is it possible to load videos in a scroller ( just like text scroller) and when the play button is clicked it starts playing( say there are 10 videos and I have to put them in two columns and in five row).

Is there a way to display hyperlinks in a text scroller in which the text is dynamically loaded using variables? I'm talking about the basic text scroller
My problem is that my scroller (made by Claudio I think) is working perfectly.. but when I put it inside of a movie clip it just won't show the loaded text. I donno why is it doing.. and I need it to be inside of MC.

find a horizontal or vertical message scroll-er that pauses on each message? And pulls the message from a external xml or text file. Trying to make a website news scroll-er that's easy for the owner to edit
