I've got dynamic buttons, but obviously the rollover and rollout will be the same, but when I have a stab at enabling rollover functions, the buttonactions die
Code:
for (i=0; i<5; i++) {
b = _root.attachMovie("stagebut", "button"+i, _root.getNextHighestDepth());
b._x = 50*i+465;

I have a movieclip that has a stop function on the first and last frame. I want the user to rollover a button on the stage, and have the movieclip go to frame 3 and stop. When they rollout, I want the movie clip to go back to frame 1 and stop. There is a stop code on both the first and last frames so the mc won't play through. I had it coded in as 2 and it worked fine, but I am using Flash cs4 now and I changed the publish settings to as3. It seems extremely complicated to get this to work in as3
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to get a button to generate 2 functions at the same time.
Function 1. to fade in and out of the background on rollover of buttons
Function 2. to generate displayed text on rollover of same buttons
Here is my code:
stop();
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
// - FUNCTIONS -
// MC_BACKGROUND Fade In Fade Out Function
function turnOff() {

When trying to call this function whilst at the same time generating the fade in fade out sequence of the background nothing happens.

I have an mc with a button nested inside and on this button I have AS for the rollOver and rollOut to play certain frames of the mc. The problem is when I use this mc (called 'mybutton_mc') in a menu system and I want to add AS to it to navigate to different areas, ie adding onPress to this mc, it kill's the AS on the rollOver and rollOut functions of the button within.
View 1 Repliesbelow is some code i am using to rewind / play an animaion depending on the rollover state. only ting is i would like to have it so that i could do something like:
playFrames(homeBtn)...
this way i can use the same function over and over but i am not sure how to write this. i think its someting like function playFrames(obj); and then you do something with this...

I took an object and converted it into a button symbol. I want to be able to disable and enable the button in different situations. I used the action script code "myButton.enabled=true;" and "myButton.enabled=false;" but these don't seem to work. Is it possible to access this property of a button I made? if not is there any way to change the button in the user interface components? if not is there any other way to disable or enable the buttons i made?
View 1 Repliesi have a movie with this button which disables it upon loading of external .swf file:
on(release) {
loadMovieNum ("lg_01.swf", 2);
i1.enabled = false;

the site in progress: [URL]..How do i tell said .swf file to re-enable the "i1" instance from the original .swf file it loaded into? I guess where I'm getting lost is how to tell one .swf to affect another.
I think if i knew this little tidbit, I would most definitely be able to have more control over my sites.

I'm having a pblm. when it comes to enabling a button(s) on/off I have a file; that with Adam14 and Scotty's help, I have working the way I want (swaping _X/_Y values), but when the button is cliked I want to disable it, untill another button is clicked... then enable it, and so on.
I thought of setting _global flags inside the buttons but then you actually have to click them twice to trigger the flags???? so then I took those flags out of the buttons and put them onto a container movieclip that looks something like this:

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a christmas calendar in flash, where naturally the movieclips representing days should be activated based on the day of the month.
I'm successfully passing the variable to flash in PHP ( I know because I used a textfield to see if the variable existed.) Then, in a external .as that is loaded after the variable is accepted I have the following code.
Code:
for(var i:Number =1; i< dagens; i++){
aLuker[i] = eval("nummer"+i);
aLuker[i].onRelease = function():Void {
[Code]....
This code is supposed to enable the clips "nummer1, nummer2, ... nummer24". I know that the aLuker[i] = eval("nummer"+i) assignment of the movieclips is correct, as I use the same method earlier in my script to set the text in a textfield inside the movieclip.
What actually happens is that although the variable exists in Flash (as a _global even) flash ignores it and enables all the movieclips.
main swf load's in empty mc an external swf (submenu) and each swf load's in empty mc subsubmenu) other swf.

loadMovie("books_1.swf",empty)

View 7 RepliesI have a movieclip on my first frame that has some functions assigned to it from my 'actions' layer. When the user clicks a button, I want to go to frame 2, have the same movieclip showing, but disable the functions that I set to it in the first frame. Is there a way of doing this?I also want the functions to be re-enabled again once another buttons is clicked, to go back to the first frame.

how to load an external swf into my main timeline. As far as I understand this main timeline is the "parent". Hence the loaded, external swf should be the "child" (a quiz).Now the child (a quiz) loads into the flash file and is played properly, but I cannot access the button on the parent anymore. Unfortunately, I really need the home button on the parent to exit the quiz and allow for new navigation within the flash document.

import flash.events.MouseEvent;function onClick611 (event:MouseEvent) :void{ gotoAndPlay("home_einf")}home_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick611);

Looking for a tutorial which only uses actionscript if that's possible... found a few on google but they use javascript (in seemingly complex ways, and I dont know javaScript)... also named anchors arrent an option either because they dont truely take you "back," they only go to the prior named anchor on the timeline.. And, they only work on the root timeline.
View 1 RepliesWe are successfully using Captivate 4 to create SWF files leveraging a Flash Streaming Media Server hosted on a CDN.My question is, does anyone know how to leverage the dynamic streaming / adaptive bitrate feature in FMS 3.5 with a Captivate file? I have spent an entire day searching all over Adobe forums and am surprised to see this is not documented ANYWHERE and given Captivate REQUIRES FMS to stream, it would be incredibly poor design if it cannot leverage the best feature FMS has to offer!
We publish to Flash Player 10, and while FP 10 IS compatible with dynamic streaming, my challenge is Captivate only allows one URI path and one stream name.To deliver dynamic streaming you have to have several files with different encode rates availalbe. But if Captivate only allows one stream name,how do you point it to a stream that finds all the alternative files? I've explored this with 3 different CDNs and they don't know how to do it(Limelight, CDNetworks and Internap)
The reason I'm so interested is we are delivering a Moodle hosted eLearning course to users around the globe with VERY different internet speeds.We've followed all the best practices in encoding and this is the next step in making our course accessble to ALL users.For those interested,our files are mostly less than 10 MB, though some are as much as 50 MB, all encoded at 500 kbps.
The script for my timer worked for one button but as soon as I set up the other 2 buttons to do the same, I started having a problem where the rollover action would go after the set amount of time was up but then would repeat itself once after the set amount of time was up again. just to clarify, if it needs it, the reason I don't have a rollout attached to these buttons is because I want the menu to stay out until you leave the menu area
so I have an invisible button called menuin_btn which sits to the right of the menu and covers the rest of the stage where the content will be, so you have to rollover that area for the menu to roll back in. The "rollin" in my code brings the movie clip to frame 16 (the end) where I have a gotoAndStop(1); command to get it back to frame 1 so the rollover can be used again. I've attached a zip with my current flash file and swf and here is what my current script looks like on the main scene:

I am making a ball move from left to right and back. but when I rollover twice quickly, it also accepts the second rollover command. I would like it to accept that second rollover only when the first one is finished. I mean, I want the first to be finished before it accepts another rollover.I know it is simple to solve this with a tween using frames instead of as, but I was wondering if someone knows how to adapt the script.
on(rollOver){
ballTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(balMC, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut,balMC._x, 44, .5, true);
ballTween.onMotionFinished = function() {
ballTweenterug = new mx.transitions.Tween(balMC, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, 44,11.9, .5, true);
