I am tearing my hair out trying to use swapDepths to "float" this logo mc over the empty_mc the actionscript uses to display the images in the xml file
I have this which isn't working
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { myMovieClip.swapDepths(empty_mc);
}
I'm trying to figure out how to get my logo to stay at the bottom right of the page all the time. I used Stage.align and onResize but the problem is that my logo ony aligns when you go to resize the window, and it "jumps" into place. I want it to pop up in the bottom right and then stay there, regardless of the window size. You can view it at This is my code:
Code:
stop()
Stage.align = "BL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

I have an external swf that contains a button that controls my main swf's timeline.I can get it to navigate fine, but as soon as it navigates, my external swf disappears, because my main swf is no longer on the frame my external swf was imported on.How do I get the external swf to stay visible along all the frames of my main swf's timeline?Here's the code I use to import the external swf:[code]
View 2 RepliesI am attempting to simulate a floating toolitp that will stay visible when i rollOver a movie clip that is actually a logo. [code]...
View 10 RepliesI have a button. When you rollover it, it shows a window next to it with some content. I want it so that if you roll off it will disappear, which I can do, but ALSO if the person clicks that same button, i want the window to stay visible, even if you roll off the button. So basically rollover = preview, click = shows permanently until closed. How can I do this?
So far I did on onRollOver event, an onRelease event, and an onRollOut event and only the rollover and rollout is working. I tried having it set a variable if the onRelease event is triggered and then if that variable was set, the rollout event wouldnt occur, but it didnt work.
Here is what I want:
1) a sprite with a rollover/out tween, going from alpha 0 to 1 on rollover, and back to 0 on rollout (let's call it "containerSprite"). That part is cake.
2) another sprite within the container (let's call it "closeButton"), that goes along for the ride (i.e., its alpha gets tweened along with the container). That's easy enough to do by making it a child of "container". When I say it is "within" the container I mean in terms of x/y.
3) when I move the mouse within containerSprite and onto closeButton, I want the container to stay visible (easy enough by setting mouseEnabled or mouseChildren to false). But I want closeButton to respond to mouseDown events, so I can't set it to mouseEnabled=false, nor can I set containerSprite.mouseChildren=false.
4) there will be several other sprites within the x/y of containerSprite, each with their own rollover/out tween. The catch is, when the mouse is within containerSprite and rolls onto one of them, the alpha of containerSprite SHOULD tween out (unlike when rolling onto closeButton).
For the life of me, I cannot get it all to work. I can get the desired behaviour in (4) easily enough, either by making the other sprites (mouseEnabled) children of containerSprite, or by making them siblings of containerSprite but higher in the display list. But the desired behaviour in (2) and (3) is vexing me: if closeButton is a child of containerSprite then its alpha tweens along with containerSprite (desired), but because it must be mouseEnabled, moving the cursor onto it triggers containerSprite's rollout event (undesired). If instead it is a higher sibling of containerSprite rather than a child, it has the same problem: if it is mouseEnabled, moving onto it counts as a rollOut event for the container. It seems like the solution ought to be easy, and I'm just missing something that is in plain sight.
I'm working with a dynamic slideshow that was already set up. Instead of thumbnails each image has a button that you click to see the image. I cant get the buttons to turn off for the categories that have less than 26 images. he button instance names are imgB1, imgB2,etc... they are in a container that is called: mc,collection_menu with an instance name of: collection_Menu basically in the script bellow the: visible=false is not working, is this the right syntax... what is wrong here
Code:
// this is the main button to start the slide show

How should vector artwork be drawn in Freehand so that white details sitting over a blue base are still readable when alpha of e.g. 50% is applied in Flash 8 ? In Freehand 9 I created a logo. Logo has an rgb mix blue base rectangle and rgb white drawn shapes on top. I also drew over the text and gave it the rgb blue as a fill with line none. That sits on top of one of the white shapes.

My question is: Set parentSprite.visible = false will make all children in parentSprite all invisible, right? And is there any way to just make parentSprite itself invisible without effecting it's children?
View 2 RepliesI want to click on an object and make it appear and disappear. As the object is rectangular, I figured putting a white button the same size on a white background on a layer underneath the object would do this, but I can't seem to make it happen.I'm a complete novice, frustrated as I've been trying to achieve this all day and I'm sure it should be pretty simple, but could you give me the idiots guide. I know how to name an instance, make an object, script in actions on a separate layer. I would like to draw the button myself and give it an instance rather than drag it off the button component (as I can't work out how to make the component button white, change its size etc.!)

View 3 RepliesOkay, this should be relatively easy but I'm running into errors. My main character is visible in the beginning of the game (where the main menu is) and because I coded it so that all of the enemies don't spawn unless the main character is visible, the enemies spawn too. As a result, if you stay at the main menu for long enough, the score continues to go up, the health goes down when enemies attack, etc.

View 2 RepliesI am loading in a logo into the rest of my application via the following code
loadr = new Loader();
loadr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, addLogo);
var logoURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("logo.swf");
loadr.load(logoURL);
It adds the file to a 0,0 x and y positio and I wanted to change that so I tried:
loadr.x=45;
loadr.y=15;
That doesn't seem to do anything though. I also wanted to set the height and width of the swf as it seems to be set to a default and that stretches it out a bit.
I just purchased a flash template and can not seem to find where I place the logo. The template now has a logo in text, but I want to replace it with an image.

Hi Everyone,
I'm totally going to embarrass myself with my lack of actionscript knowledge... but, I hope someone can at least point me in the right direction.
I'm designing a flash site that has 5 buttons, each corresponding to a different company. When a button is pressed, the logo for that company will appear in the body of the site along with a brief company description. So far, that's all very easy I know. But, here's where it gets complicated (at least, for me):
I've set up shape tweens (25 to be exact) so that every logo can "tween" into any of the other logos. The goal is to have it so that when you click on one of the company's buttons, the logo will shape tween from the current logo displayed to the logo for the company button you clicked. Make sense? I hope so.
When a button is pressed, the script basically needs to find out what logo is currently displayed, so that it can know what shape tween movieclip to play.
I've set up all the tweens on the timeline with Frame Labels: logo1ToLogo2, Logo1ToLogo3 and so forth. And then Logo2ToLogo1, Logo2ToLogo3 and so forth...
