Unable To Apply An Action To Button?
May 7, 2009I want to apply an action to my button so that it plays a mc on frame 2 of the mc, but in the actions palette in the window to add an action it says: Current selection cannot have actions applied to it. This thing is definitely a button but I will say that I have a mc and text box in each of the 4 frames of the button. But why should that cause an issue? With the button on the stage, I can view the up/over/down states by going: control --> enable simple buttons, so it is acting as a button.

View 1 RepliesGet Back Action Script Buttons?
Aug 4, 2009One if the reasons I used Flash 5 for my personal company website was the really simple programming through action script buttons an fill-out-forms (you know: Gotoandplay, fill out this, click there and so on ...).Im a good artist but im terrible att programming! Anyways now I got one of the latest versions of Flash and action Script is definatelly still there but in soooo many versions and and those action script buttons and fill-out-windows are not there any more, so Im lost! I dont have Flash 5 anymore otherwise I would use it.
Is there a button somewhere so I can get back my "useless newbie action script buttons"? Or what should I do?

IDE :: Buttons - Navigation Action Doesn't Occur Until Release The Mouse Button
Feb 3, 2011I have three buttons on screen that navigate to different places on the timeline. I have set them all up as buttons using a generic button in the library and then given them all different instance names. I selected the button and changed the text colour for each state in the timeline (up, over, down) to keep it simple. The buttons are all, as far as I can analyse, identical in all but instance name.
When I test the movie, the first button changes text colour on 'over' and, when I click (i.e. down state) the colour changes again as designed. The navigation action doesn't occur until I release the mouse button, giving the feel of having 'clicked' the button.
With the other two buttons, which have been set up as far as I can tell in exactly the same way, when the down state occurs, I see a momentary flash of the text colour change and it performs the nav straight away. I really want it to perform the same way as the first button but cannot for the life of me see why they're behaving differently.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Unable To Use Buttons With Draggable Movie Clip?
Feb 1, 2010I have a movie clip on the main timeline in frame 1 that I named moveablekey. What it is supposed to be is a key for a map that you can move around on the map. When you scroll over/off the key it will hide/unhide the actual key. The key has some buttons that I want to allow to go to a different link when clicked. When I test the key without the code below it will work on the link and take me to the link, but when I put the code into the main timeline it stops the link from working. Here is what I think is happening: The code seems to make it so wherever I click on the movie clip it is doing the start/stop drag code and won't recognize the buttons within the movie clip. So is there a way that I can make just the header of the key to be clickable to start/stop the drag, but still move the entire key, and allow for the buttons to be clicked?
Code:
stop();
moveablekey.onPress = function(){
startDrag(this);
Mouse.hide();[code]..........

View 0 RepliesUnable To Make The Imported Buttons Control The Timeline Of The Parent?
Jan 18, 2009I have an swf file, MyRoundButtons, which is a set of radio buttons I built (not components). It works fine, but if I import it into a parent it won't work anymore. I have to write a script to load it into a movieclip, (which I hate, because I'll have a several different swfs to assemble on my final stage. I really want to see them all on the stage together, not just at runtime.)
Even when I load it into a clip and the buttons work, however, it doesn't seem to have a separate timeline when double-clicked ,and:I can't make the imported buttons control the timeline of the parent.I defined a test function:
Code: Select allfunction goToNirvana() {gotoAndPlay("nirvana")};
Frame "nirvana," in th parent, has a Trace instruction in it.
goToNirvana works on its own in the parent. [code].....
Whether I define that function in the child, the parent, or both, the instruction won't work. Now, I'd prefer not to do the loadMovie thing at all if I can avoid it, I'd rather have fully rendered button clips onstage at authoring for me to arrange and move about, with fully independent timelines right there. But you see what I'm trying to do. I just can't get it done.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Unable To Make Some Nice Animations,buttons And Stuff?
Apr 28, 2005I've only used flash for 5 months now. As you expect, i'm a super novice. I've been trying to follow the books, tutorials i fould on web and was able to make some nice animations,buttons and stuff. But i'm not a programmer, i never been one and i just don't think i got the brains for it. I just know a little bit. Like i said, it's only been 5 months so i only know how to change other's script to suit mine, i can't create any complicated from top of my head. My question is...do I HAVE TO be an expert to make websites with Flash? After all, i'm only learning Flash so I can make interactive websites. I'm not looking forward to making games or drawing boards or anything. Just websites. How much knowledge of Actionscript(or XML) would I need to make a flash only website?

Jan 19, 2007I've been trying to tweak the "image gallery + Bokel loader class" found on the laco web site. The image preloader is pretty nifty:
http:[url]....
I've added Previous/Next buttons which clients always seem to demand, and I've given the thumbnail buttons a static position (something I need to do). I'm having problems getting the buttons to stack in rows/columns though. I can't work with one long column or row of buttons - they need to be stacked in rows, say 6 buttons per row and 6 columns across so that there is a nice box arrangement to the buttons. But the way the functions are written its hard to make adjustments to the placement of clips.
Professional :: Unable To Edit Flash File - Can't Enter Inside Buttons/movie Clips?
Apr 9, 2012I am in the middle of creating a website using Flash CS5. I opened up my .Fla file one day to continue my work but I am no unable to access buttons and movie clips. When creating movie clips or buttons I am unable to get inside them, when I hover my mouse over them there is a white hand icon which never used to be there it was always just a normal mouse icon. I double click to enter inside the buttons/movie clips but nothing happens. This happens to existing movie clips and buttons on the page and even when I create new ones. I really don't wanna have to start this website again.
