ActionScript 3.0 :: Baffled - Buttons Will And Will Not Work Using Same Code?
May 11, 2010
im using the following code:
stop();
btn_arrow_TL.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,l1top);
function l1top(l1:Event)
{
gotoAndPlay("left_flyout_play_1st");
[Code]...
The first two buttons (btn_arrow_TL and btn_arrow_RL) work... but btn_Home will not work.... it shows up just a few frames later in the timeline, but why would this have any effect on it working or not??? The ActionScript runs the whole length..
I've got 13 movieclips that all run a function (setNames) contained in a child object (namer) it contains. The function displays text in a dynamic text boxI've set them up with the instance names mark0 > mark12 so I can target them with a loop and array notation which is something I often use. But the loop sometimes doesn't work, however a list of 13 separate lines of code works fine. Am I overloading Flash with too much code commands at once, and is there a way around this?This doesn't work...
My film works ok. But if you move between the color buttons, the first time they react ok, just like i want, but the second time they get a life o they're own, driving me crazy... what am i doing worng? why doesn't the code do what it should?
I have a movie clip with 15 frames. Each frame has buttons on it (mc's)... I was going to put the actions on the main timeline/stage and navigate within the MC from the main timeline. Is that possible? I can get the buttons on the first frame of the MC to work, but I can't seem to figure out how to target/make the buttons on the other frames work? I was thinking I could identify the path of the MC with the frame labels, but that doesn't seem to work. like: _root.RMChanger.(frame label).buttonOnFrame = function
I have to move a text box in and out over the MC backgrounds on the main stage... which is why I was thinking to do it this way? I've been switching back and forth bwtween AS2.0 and 3.0
I am having trouble with a job I am doing at the moment which has an mc with buttons within it. I want it so that when I roll over the mc it tweens from a small version to a larger version, and on this mc there are some buttons. At the moment I can get the mc to move but the buttons remain inactive and also the rollover states on the buttons don't work. I have attached a simpler version of what I am trying to do to this post.
I'm having problems with the flash buttons on the flash website i made for a client. or some reason the buttons in the top and bottom menu work on some people's computers but on some they don't. I don't know what to do, i had this code for all the buttons,
on (release) { getURL("http://legaldepartment.ca/","_self"); }
and they worked on my computer but on others the buttons didn't work at all so i added this code to each button also
I am using Flash CS4 with actionscript 2 to create an interacitve portfolio.I have 2 text buttons that work when I test them with "enable simple buttons." When I publish to IE these buttons won't work. I have created over 50 buttons using the same methods, they all work.
Code Snippets won't workEvery time I try to attach a Code Snippet I keep getting this error:***Notes from Customer***10/13/201020:55:30When I have a object on stage, and I try to add code snippet, I keep gettingerror message: The following JavaScript error(s) occurred: SyntaxError: missing ) after argument listI've watched video(s) on adding snippets, but it won't work for me like it
I am using AS2 and I am trying to make a simple 'game' for an assignment for school.I am first trying to make a simplified version of the game, to get some experience before I make the final version. I will try to explain this simplified version:
The player has to drag an object in a big square and then release it. The object resamples 20 liter water. In total the player has to drag 100 liter water to the square, so it has to drag and drop the 'water' object 5 times.
I want some text in screen that says: You still need .
MovieClip(root)["bmc"+PuzzleGlobals.puzzleAbbrev].addChild(fwgame); fwgame is declared like this (before the addChild): var fwgame:FireworkGame = new FireworkGame(); trace (fwgame); //traces correct object
trace (MovieClip(root)["bmc"+PuzzleGlobals.puzzleAbbrev]); //returns a 1009 error
The first line of code works. The second line returns a 1009 error, "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."
Okay, I know this is an old topic by now. I've searched numerous places how to save to a simple text file, and at one point in my life I was able to do it. However, the code doesn't seem to work anymore Flash Code:
Code: myData = new LoadVars(); submit.onRelease = function() {
For some reason my buttons don't work when I stop on frame 34. Everything else works, but when I stop on 34 the button/actions won't work anymore. I have no idea why. I checked everything that I can think of. The buttons are labeled correctly on the frame.
What I'm Trying To Do: Modify the y coordinate of a MovieClip on the stage from an external .as File, simple as that.If someone could tell me why its not working and how I can go about fixing it without modifying the existing class structure (ChildOfMain must subclass MainClass).

ok, so i am doing a tutorial on external text sheets, but i cannot seem to implement the same code into my current project, it just doesn't seem to work.Its strange because im not getting any errors, but it still doesn't work.This is the example code:
Code: var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("my_text_file.txt")); loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
Every time I preview my .swf in flash I can see everything resizing correctly as well as staying centered on the page. However when I uploaded it to the web none of it works anymore and I have no idea why.Check it out...
I have used a pop up window code several times before and now it doesn't seem to work. I've tried in several different movies now and when pressing the button it simply flashed the page and moves a little, but won't actually pop up to the page it's pointed to.Here's the code:
on (release) { getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.angelfire.com/in/HansonArtGallery/2newpaintingbig.html','newWin','width=650,height=6 50,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars= No,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);"); }
I have a Rectangle Box called (Panel1_mc).And inside it there is a button called (BoardMessage1_btn). When I click on this button, the Rectange Panel should move upwards. Right now it is on the bottom of the page. The following code throws an 1010 error:
Panel1_mc.BoardMessage1_btn.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, clickSection); function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent){ var Panel1Tween:TweenMax = new TweenMax(Panel1_mc, 6, {y:450, delay:1, ease:Strong.easeOut}); }
I have the following code with type writing effect which is working cool. But I want this code to start after 30 seconds so that some of the animation will be finished playing animation.[code]
I have a trial version of the Adobe Flash CS5 installed on my machine and I am unable to get code hinting to work when I'm working on AS3 files. I've tried doing the reg fix from Lee's blog but still can't get it to work. I've also tried deleting the Flash regkey and the configuration folder but still can't get it to work.
I happen to have this real massive code for an object in my game.(please guys dont move this to the game section the problem has hardly anything to do with that) One of them is a propane tank, the other a box and the third is a barrel.(it doesnt really make much diff i just want you guys to get a better picture of whats going on)So inside of each movieclip i put in this MASSIVE code.
ActionScript Code: onClipEvent(load) { var right:Boolean = true; }
[code]....
it works fine but when i put in an instance name the whole thing messes up.only one of them works and all the others follow commands from the same one. so lets say if presse is true for the working on, presse will be true for all the rest. The problem still happens if i use different combinations of objects like 3 crates or 1 propane tank and 2 crates. Can someone please help me find a solution without changing the instance name. By the way '_root.hater' is the character.
Basically I have a class called player.as The symbol "Player" is the only linkage it has.[code]It is trying to make the player, a movieclip onscreen, with an instance name "Player", move with the arrow keys. Sadly it doesn't work.
