ActionScript 2.0 :: Set A Variable On A Button?

Dec 4, 2003

i was wondering if i set a variable on a button (the button is on level 5)

Code:
_level5.current_selection = "credits" and i would like the movie on level 1 to recognize that this button (on level 5)has been pressed, is this script correct on an empty keyframe in level 1.

Code:
_level5.current_selection = "credits";
if (_level5.current_selection == "credits") {
loadMovieNum("credits.swf", 2);

[Code]....

i've tried this and it isn't recognizing the variable.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Variable And Get The Button To Add One To That Variable?

Jan 28, 2010

I want to be able to have a number displayed on the screen that when one of the arrows next to it (up/down) is clicked it adds 1 to the original number (lets say 72). Then when they click the "save" button that really just takes them to the next frame (or a frame somewhere else in the movie), which is a confirmation page, I want the number they ended at to display on the confirmation screen.
I'm thinking that it is partially because I don't know what to search for.I know I have to create a variable and get the button to add one to that variable.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Set The Variable With The [currnt] Button Name?

Mar 22, 2002

i'v 3 button on a line, if u click button1 it goes below the line, if u click button2 it should go below the line and button1 should go back to its previous position. this should work for the 3 buttons.So i set a variable on the first frame of my movie

var discesa;
set(discesa, "null");

then i wrote this code on every button so in the button timeline i go to the label that restores the position of other buttons, and in the main timeline i go where i need to.

on (release) {
// the button goes down in its timeline
gotoAndPlay("down");

//and i change frame in the main timeline
_root.gotoAndPlay("b3");

then the other 2 buttons go up in their own timelines if the variable is set with their values

if (discesa, "b1") {
_root.b1.gotoAndPlay("up");
} else if (discesa, "b2") {[code]....

last but not least i set the variable with the currnt button name

set(discesa, "b3");

Accessing Variable From Frame With Button In Flash

Mar 24, 2011

I am a beginner in Flash development and I was just recently assigned to fix an old Flash project at my work. Essentially, the application is a video booth whereby users can record up to 60s of video via their webcam and then share it either via email, twitter, or facebook. When the application is started, a video ID is generated, and that is used as the video's file name when it is streamed and saved to the server. I am sure there is a better way to do this, but the way I came up with is to grab that video ID and pass it to the "Share" page as a URL variable, and then use that to access and share the video from the server. How I can access the video ID from the button that is sending the user to the "Share" page.

Here is the code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
var ns:NetStream;
var cam:Camera;
var mic:Microphone;
var vidId:String = configName();
function tracer(p_s) {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get Variable To Goto Button Frame

Sep 15, 2011

I'm pretty new to AS3 but I want to get my buttons to play the same movie then go to their button function. i.e., Picture button > play movie (same as all buttons) > picture frame.

This is the code on my buttons
ActionScript Code:
stop();
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var currentButton:String;
[Code] .....
Then at the end of the movie I tried using a variable to link the button to its frame

ActionScript Code:
stop();
if (currentButton == name) {
content.gotoAndStop("music");
} else if (currentButton == name) {
content.gotoAndStop("book");
} else if (currentButton == name) {
content.gotoAndStop("stereo");
}
I know the scripts messed up but not sure I really get the variable thing as yet.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Variable Value Not Working In Button Menu?

Dec 14, 2005

Im creating a menu navigation, which loads a sub menu movie clip from the library on specific button press. It does this by looking at the current selection (a number variable) and closing the currently active submenu. Once loaded it then changes the number variable to the value of the current submenu.

This works fine, most of the time... sometimes the number variable and menu loaded is completely wrong.

There are six buttons on the menu bar, included is sample script from the 'About' button, there is more to the script but it is instances of this sample, only button names etc change.

Code:
about_btn.onRelease = function() {
if (navID == 1) {
_root.submenuHome_mc.gotoAndPlay("close");

ActionScript 3.0 :: Button Setup - URLRequest Variable Change

Jul 22, 2009

I this code a setup a button that calls a url request from another variable and that works fine:
var venue_www:String = "http://www....1";
var venue_url:URLRequest = new URLRequest(venue_www);
function venue_Click(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(venue_url);
vInfo.highlight1.alpha = 1;
} vInfo.venue.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, venue_Click);

But later on I have a function that changes the venue_www variable among other details. But my button won't update with the new url variable. I've actually also already removed the event listener and re-added it through the script, for whatever its worth.
function setInfo1() {// one for each venue
if (currentVenue=="ATL") {
venue_www = "http://www.....2";
}}

Professional :: Create And Pass A Variable With Button On(release)?

Apr 23, 2011

I have an AS 2 movie that has tons of navigation. When the movie first loads, the main screen plays an animation and stops. That animation is my main menu. If a user clicks the home button (which is an MC instance) it takes him to the Home Movie and plays. From here, I need to be able to fade out that movie and fade in a new movie when the user clicks on the next button. So, I want to create a variable on(release) of the button thats within the Home MC that will play the fade out and then be directed to the next animation.I imagine something like this.

buttonA == false;
on(release){
buttonA = true;
