ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Indented Menu Item And Click On It?
Aug 14, 2009
I have a menu system with 2 parts not connecting. I can't figure out how to write the code to make them work.
I have a movieClip with a dynamically created list of menu titles as an array from an AS3 file. My menu bars are linked to an AS3.0 file. The array is "empty" in the AS file to be added dynamically in the fla file.
1. I want to have one menu title flush left, then be able to add a submenu title indented with a different style to that same list. I have the listItem linking to an AS3.0 file now. I've got the main list working but not an indented submenu. How do I add that?
2. I need to be able to load a swf file when a menu item is clicked. How do I target the 'current' item clicked when added dynamically?[code]...

I'm currently using a flash template for my online portfolio, but I've noticed that if you right click anywhere, it brings up the standard flash right-click menu with the following items:
Settings
Global Settings
About Flash Player 10
But directly above is a separate menu item that says "Made by JWD" and that takes you to a different website if you click it. I have the .fla file for the gallery - can I remove this menu item?

I'm having a major brain fog right now...I'm trying to add a click event for each menu item that is loaded from an XML file.
See code below:
function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void
{
xml = XML(event.target.data);
xmlList = xml.children();
[Code].....
So basically everytime a click event occurs on a menu item, the related url from the xml file will be called. However the trace(imgURL) only shows the last item loaded from the XML file which makes sense.
I just can't see how to modify the code so the unique url is associated with each unique menu item click event.

Basically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
// Import the Menu control.
import mx.controls.Menu;

Anybody know how to create a custom context menu (right click menu) in Flash?
If it's not possible, wouldn't it be a good idea for Macromedia to put some kind of event or something in there?

I've got a drop down menu. I want to click a tab to make it drop then, if it's open, click it again to close. I've tried a million variations on the script below:
var btn_grp1:String
function main1Down(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (btn_grp1 != "dwn") {
[Code]....
This works too (once). So the drop down buttons all disapear again, but it won't re-set. The drop down menu stays up from then on.
BTW i'm not set on this method, it just seemed the most obvious i.e. if menu hidden, then show it, set some variable to down (showing), else hide the menu, set var to up (hidden). Not working though.

Here is the code on my buttons, which work fine.[code]...
How do I setup these buttons so that when button1 is clicked, and the button1 page is loaded, that the button stays in 'Over' state?
And just to elaborate, when button2 is clicked and loaded, I want button2 to be in 'Over' state while button1 goes back to normal.
So basically, how do I highlight the active menu item with my 'Over' state?

I have purchased a menu (AS3 + XML)...very nice, and I have simpleviewer v 2 ...also very nice - However - I have absolutely no idea how to get the xml menu buttons to call on the function that loads the relevant simpleviewer gallery...not very nice
I have spent the weekend going through lots of menus with XML + AS3 but they all seem to fall short of explaining how you get the final xml buttons to interact with any actionscript within your flash movie. This makes me think I am missing something very obvious and if so a polite nudge in the right direction would do just fine. In the mean time this is what I have been doing,
The thought pattern I have at the moment is that I can call a function (that is written on the first frame on the main flash movie) from a button in the xml file. Is this true and if so how?I have been trying to search for terms such as 'call function from xml' etc but have not found any relevant links Based on the two code blocks below I tried this within the xml but no luck
HTML Code:
<item text = "ButtonTest1" action = "_root.loadGallery1" frame ="1" label = "" url = "" target = "_self" />
The function/s I want to call from the flash movie is this
ActionScript Code:
function loadGallery1(e:Event){
loadGallery("gallery_1.xml");
}
[code]....
I have all the relevant as files for the menu if I need to code them, just really need to know what I should be looking for. As it is a purchased download i am not exactly sure if there is any restrictions on sharing code but it is fairly useless within flash if I cannot get it to work in the first place!
