ActionScript 2.0 :: Set A Variable On A Button (the Button Is On Level 5)?
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.

I am working on a project and have a print function that basically does a screen grab and prints it out. I load a number of external swfs into levels of the main swf.I want the print button to stay on the top level. Is there a way to define what level a button is on?I want to define the button on level 20. I contemplated loading it in as another external movie clip, but the script won't work if I do that.

My main movie is on level 0, of course. On level 0 I created an empty movie clip named "container". Now, I load another movie into container, and I loaded it on Level 1. Now, I want to put a code inside a Movie Clip that is on level 1, which is the new, loaded movie that will disable a red button on level1. Here's the code I used:[code]That worked to no avail as well. So, I'm wondering if the code that disables and enables buttons only work with a handler? Like an onClipEvent or on (release) handler? I'm puzzled right now, because this is really elementary but i just don't know it right now.

i've got that when you click a button it takes you to the next frame/level of the game, but i want to make the next level harder, meaning you have to kill all the enemies to goto the next frame/level, so, how do i make it so you have to click ALL 3 buttons on the stage to go to the next frame? Or is there another way to do this?

In a mini game I made, I wanted to add a simple restart level button. All goes well during the first run of the game, but after hitting the restart button (which essentially just unpauses it by flipping a few booleans and such) the action listener to move the character in the game isn't responding. I put a trace() of a boolean switch for the action before and after hitting reset, and prior the value is correctly being displayed, but after the value is not.
I know I'm probably going to be asked to post my code, but it's quite long and unorganized, so I'm curious if there is a known issue relating to this.

I'm making game, where I must collect points. In end menu screen, i want that if my score's over 200, a next level button will be visible. Now it's visible every time when timer's out. I have tried this code
if (score < 200){
this.visible == false;
} else
if (score >=200){
this.visible == false;
}

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.

I have a menu with five nav buttons (atcually MovieClips). Each has three frame labels: "on", "stay", and "off". The rollover and rollout animations play flawlessly, but I'm at a loss as to how to give each button a sticky "active" state. I'd like the button to stay in it's active state until another button is clicked, then I would like it to play it's "off" animation. Each MC has this code:

I want to take a static text field, convert it into a button, and use it as a button. I need it static, because I changed orientation, and I do not know how to do that otherwise. The problem is, even though I converted it to a Button symbol, it does not work when I test the movie. It works fine with "Enable simple buttons", but when I test it, the button is not there, no change in mouse cursor, no reaction at all.So this is what I did:
Made text. // static, not selectable, Orientation: vertical left to right, / //rotated; Two filters: Drop Shadow and Glow;
Converted text field to Button - Symbol (scrollBT)
Editing the Button,I put the same content (the static text field) in all four frames: No luck, not working. without the Hit frame filled (which I think doesn't really make a difference): No luck, not working.Tried again, converting the static text field in the button into a Graphic Symbol: No luck, not working.Tried again, and put some differences in the frames for "ON" and "OVER" etc.: No luck, not working.Tried again, duplicating a similar, working button, edited it, and: No luck, not working.
To the button itself and the AS: The button will be a scroll-button for a text field, with different scroll speeds on rollover and press, but nothing else. The code for that I have (I think). It's something like (and please excuse my incorrect syntax here, but I'm typing from memory; still, I use the Script-Assistant and my syntax is apparently correct; it's also working with other buttons):
on {rollOver} {
function (scroll) {
textfieldtxt.scroll - = 1;}[code]....
I'm at the end of my wits. The only difference I can tell from other (working) buttons I did the same way, is that the scrollBt does not do anything except scrolling, while all of the others have frame actions (gotoAndplay etc.) associated with them.

Here's a really easy (Not so easy for me) question for you. First person to answer rules the. I have a button that switches a variable from 0 to 1.
on (press) {
_root.pageone = 1;
}
I want the same button to switch the variable off. I've been trying "if else", but my syntax is rubbish. How do I code this statement On Press Button > if _root.pageone = 1 change to 0 > if _root.pageone = 0 change to 1.

I'm working on a game, where if you click an answer, it will double check to see if that's the one you really want. So I tried to set a variable when that button is clicked. On another set of buttons, I placed an if / else statement, but it doesn't seem to be working.[code]

I have several buttons I need to turn on and off (visibility and alpha) but the function I have written that determines if a given button should be turned off works based on a few variables. I need to be able to control which button is turning on and off with these variables.
I have tried this ("btn" + i)._visible or alpha but does not work. how I can accomplish this?

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");

Normally, I declare a variable at the very top of all my code like, var myObj: Myobj = new Myobj();...
but for some reason the the new variable being declared is necessary to present within the function, like displaying same objects in the library using for loop.
I notice that variable declare within a function will not be accessible outside the function or from another event handler or from another function....
I have seen code that make it possible my declaring a new variable?

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) {
[Code] .....

I want to use two buttons, one for increase and the other for decrease, to change the numeric value of a variable. I will use this variable to call a line width in some lineStyle code that I have. Basically, the user will be able to use the buttons to change the width of the line they are drawing in real time. I have attached the fla with the beginnings of this section.
How do I get the buttons to affect my variable?

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.
