ActionScript 2.0 :: "mouseover"-like Effect For Text?
Nov 29, 2005
I'm using Flash 8 to create a FlashPlayer 7-compatible application... It will have a few dynamic textfields that will be filled from live XML data (all this is not a problem- I've done that before ^_^)... but I have a problem:
I know that you can use HTML in Textfields. I know that you can use "asfunction" in HTML-links to call functions. I know how to make a "floating MC" that follows the mouse like a tooltip with changing text and all, triggered by an onRollOver for an MC. Is there a way to assign such an "onRollOver" (that switches a trigger value for a "tooltext MC"...) to a link in a textfield? The problem is that the textfield is scrollable and the entries in it that are linked can have various length of 4 to 12 letters length. Otherwise I'd do it with transparent MCs above the linked areas... but that would be rather complicated... does anyone know how it could be done otherwise?
when user mouseovers the green part, the mouseover effect follows the mouse where it goes within the green part. I have been looking for tutorials how to do this but to no avail
I don't use actionscript very often, but I'm convinced this effect should work.I just want the movie clip "button" to play on mouseover and rewind on mouseout.
Here are the two texts Products Innovation I want the button to be "products" and when you mouse over it products fades out and innovation fades in and moves to the top right, like an animation.
I'm trying to create some simple buttons for a splash page. I've followed a tutorial at [URL] in order to achieve the desired effect, but there seems to be a problem: the rollOver action seems to work, but if one keeps their mouse cursor towards the left edge of the button, the animation stutters indefinitely. Here's my button: [URL]
The following block of code represents a sphere that is made from several pictures. The project contains small jpg thumbnails and their corresponding photos that are loaded when the thumbs are of course clicked. I have a problem in figuring out how to make these small thumbs change color once they are clicked, and to remain in that state/color, so the user knows what thumbs he has been clicking on, when he returns to the "board".
I have a map that I want to make in Flash with mouseover effect. Example map is here [URL] What I need?
1) When mouse is over the location pin it must show infobox. Yes similar what Google Places does. but with mouse over effect, not on Click. I was using Adobe Flash 5.0's default code snippets and got stuck after this code bolow... I'm new to Flash, sorry but learn very fast/
I'm playing around with this code and am trying to get the color effect to work on mouseover, but nothing happens. Can someone take a quick peak and maybe point me to a flaw in my code?
I am trying to make a grid of photo thumbnails where the thumbnail grows when you mouse over it. Sort of like the Mac Dock effect but in a grid. [URL]I don't need to load the photos as the above sample does. And I'd be happy with an effect in which the individual thumnbail grows on mouseover, or one more like the Dock effect in which the nearby thumbnails grow too, but less.
I am creating Drag and drop flash application. While dragging an instance of a movieclip I want also the dropable region to show effect like MouseOver case. So that end user can confirm that they are dropping the item in right region. Here the mouse is moved while it is kept clicked .
I really like the text effect Pom used in the footer contest, and would like to use the same grid-type method of creating mc letters but with a different effect. i understand how to change the parameters and shapes of the letters, but can't seem to figure out which piece of code is purely for the explosion effect. basically, i want the letters but with the 'Repel' effect from[URL] here is Pom's AS:
[AS] cellSize=3; radius=10; damp=.85;
[code]....
and here is the .fla using the repel effect using pre-made mc:
I have a basic mouseover in my flex application which changes an image onmouseover and changes it back onmouseout using the code mouse Over "functionToChangeImageSource()" and another one to mouseout.It works fine when you slowly mouse over and out, however if I quickly move the mouse over it, it occasionally stays on the mouseover image and the mouseout function doesnt appear to kick in. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or does anyone have any ideas why its happening?Also, I've tried the rollOver and rollOut instead but it has the same problem.[code]I'd imagine you're correct about the mouseover event not completing before mouseout is but how to I fix this?
I have a simple movie clip for which i bind two events 1-MouseOver and MouseOut
in these events i am just tracing simple text
But the Problem is when i take my mouse over the movie clip both events called tracing the string in the output panel
Infact, things should be done like that on mouse over, its text is printed and when i take my mouse away[out] from the movieClip MouseOut event should be called.
I am still using flash MX. I'm pulling random text from a textfile (array.txt) into movieclip instance textbox.[code]All is good, but now my question is if I can have a text effect as well. For example having the random quotes typed out as they appear.
I have a text box that I want to display "tips" in, for example I have a text box with text in it and I added an event listener for mouse over but I realized I have no way to tell the function what text to display. When I try to do something like the following, I just get error messages:
Code: txtpName.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, tipText("This is your name"); public function tipText (tip:String, e:Event):void { txtTip.text = tip; }
I have a question and would like some help with creating a flash gallery but for showing information rather than pictures. I will try to make this as clear as possible but if its confusing please let me know and I will give more details.Basically I trying to make a vertical timeline on the lefthand side with years (in text) which expand slightly on mousover and when clicked show the relavent information on the righthand side for that year.I can't seem to get the text to expand on mouseover?
I need to develop some mouse over functionality in text field.I could get the text on click functionality by having htmlText & TextEvent.Similarly, can i get the mouseover functionality in text field ?
It does not seem to work however as the text does not underline when I mouse over it.
Is there a way to do this purely through CSS or do I need to programmatically capture the mouse events and set the styles accordingly (seems like overkill)?
I made a worldmap which is a movieclip, and inside that worldmap I create dynamicly project icons which contain a text balloon with some short information about that project.The problem I'm facing is that I want to make the text balloon appear on mouseover, and when I press the movieclip, it goes to another page.I've been trying this for a while but I can't find a good solution, onRollOver and onPress on movieclips won't work, and I have no clue how else I could do it. The reason why I add them inside the worldmap is because I want to zoom in and out or move the map in certain directions.when I zoom in and out on the map, the icons become largers as well. How can I make it so that the icons always stay the same size?
The flashmx8 file can be found at: http:[url]....
The code is at the first layer called "scripts" in the first frame.
The code for adding dynamicly dots onto the map is at line: 72 and the code for zooming starts at line: 131, and basicly the whole actionscript is in the first frame to keep it easy and mobile to tweak the whole application.
I have a linked movieclip in my library that contains a dynamic text field. I edit this text via my external class but when I tween my MC, the text just disappears !!
Code: var goTo1:_goTo1= new _goTo1(); addChild(goTo1); goTo1.id=0; goTo1.buttonMode = true;
I've done my fair bit of HTML coding and work fairly well with CSS but i've never ever done a mouseover in flash.. Now, the website's text, all of it, is simply located on a text.txt file that the flash file reads and incorporates onto the website.. All text and images come from this text file. This is what I want to do.
Click on Enter site, then when it loads, click on the "Selling" tab at the top of the site. On the "My Listings" section is where I want to have the mouseover text and the "Market Analytics" section (which we'll be renaming) is where we'd like the image to actually appear. My question to you is can this be done within this environment and how so?
I can edit JavaScript somewhat, though its been a while.
I want to create an animation like this one [URL]. You can see on the home page 4 blocks of pictures on which if you mouseover you will see it change and display text. I know how to do this. But When you mouseover one block and come out of it, the text will be still there until you move onto another block, which I don't know how to.
I am making some buttons that enlarge and then fall back to their original size when you mouse over them. The font used is a pixel font and this blurs when you do the mouse over. Is there anyway you can make them so they dont blur?
This is the code on the movie clips: onClipEvent (load) { xlen = 100; ylen = 100; xscale = _xscale; yscale = _yscale; [Code] .....
