ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons Inside Of MC Not Working?
Oct 7, 2008
I want a Movie Clip to house 5 buttons that will link to frame labels on the main time line.(this will be my main menu navigation)I have created 5 separate buttons then created a Movie Clip.dragged each of the 5 buttons into the movie clip gave instance names for all of them.then I dragged the movie clip to my main timeline and gave that an instance name.I then went into the Movie clip and attempted to use AS3 to get the button instances to navigate to the frame labels.no go
when I test my movie it keeps looping through the whole main timeline no matter how many stop commands I put in the main timeline or in the Movie clip itself.if I have no AS in the Movie clip then the movie tests with the Movie clip working (no scrolling through the timeline and rollover works fine but I still can not command the CLICKs).as a post script I have tried so many AS variables I thought it best to not enter any here

This is my first time coding a website using ActionScript. So far everything has went very well, I designed the website in Photoshop, and imported to Flash CS5. Then I cleaned everything up, and started adding navigation to the various pages using buttons.The website is constructed in a very simple manner, there are five main pages and they are connected by buttons on a static navigation bar (the first page, home, doesn't have a corresponding button). Then there are nine sub pages, that each contain information on a character of the game, and are connected to corresponding buttons in the 'Character' layer/MovieClip. My four menu buttons (Story, The World, Characters, Extras) all navigate correctly without problems.
The problem arises because inside my Characters page (a movie clip) are nine buttons, each linking to a different page. These buttons should bring the timeline to the frame specified, but when the buttons are clicked nothing happens. I've spent hours searching for a solution to this, but with no avail, and I have a feeling the answer is prettysimple.gotoAndStop("gowang", "Scene 1");line in the Gowang character button function with:MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("gowang");

ated menu panel (movieclip) with about 4 buttons inside it (as movieclips)I know the reason the buttons are not responding to my script because the movieclip they are in is animated. (I tested this with a static version and the button script works)How can I make the buttons inside the animated movieclip work is my big question!?Here is part of my code (the revelant bit) on 1st frame of Root:
Code:

im working on a zoom/pan gallery and i have a problem that i can't solve.URL...the pan buttons are not working but the zoom and reset buttons works. im working on movie the image using the mouse now, if you will hold the image and move it it will drag it on stage.the image is a loader the loads and image and placed on screen.there is a mask on top of it and a frame that indicates the size of the gallery.when the user pan the image loader content i want it to stop as soon as it gets to the gallery frame,but i cant seem to find the best way to do it.so basicly when the image is in 100% i dont want the user to be able to drag it but after you zoom the user will be able to drag it but only to the edge of the frame so there wont be any white spaces.i tried a lot of different ways to do it but all of them are complicated and not working the way that i want them to work.

I have three buttons and when I click the second one, the first stops working (e.g. no trace event and it won't go back to the frame "tab1") but the third still works. Then when I press the third button both the first and second no longer work. If I take out the gotoAndStop lines, the buttons work fine. The subsequent frames simply have stops on them.
b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b1Pressed);b2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b2Pressed);b3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b3Pressed);
function b1Pressed(event:MouseEvent){ trace("b1 pressed");

So I've done a lot of research on this issue and I understand that buttons don't work when its nested inside a mc that has an event.My project is a map that pans/zooms and when you click on the green triangle next to Lansing, its supposed to pop up a window with information. The wierd thing about it is that it works when I use an onRollover event, but not an onRelease event.The map pan/zoom script was not written by myself btw.
Flash Map
Flash Map_Test
Flash map is the script with the pans/zoom. Flashmap_test is where I made my map with nested buttons.Then Flash Map just calls and brings in Flashmap_test.

I'm trying to make a UI editor and I'm using a color picker component I found online. I've tried a couple different color picker components but they all seem to have the same issue. If I put an instance of the component on the stage and run the movie, it works fine. The text showing the current color (in hex) as well as any button labels show up and all is well. If I take that same component and put it in another movie clip and put THAT mc on the stage, all is still right with the world. However, if I give that mc a linkage ID and load it using an attachMovie call, all text is blank. I thought it may have to do with embedding, but the button labels are static text, so that shouldn't be an issue.

The problem is that I can't access my class properties inside the onLoadInit event function. What is the good OOP way to access these properties?

I have my main SWF into which I want to load an external swf...When I've tried using the following code...
var light:Loader = new Loader();
light.load(new URLRequest("light.swf"));
addChildAt(light, 1);
The SWF loads but the buttons inside it do not show. How do I load the swf and have the buttons inside it work? Anything inside of the external swf that is a movie clip works, but I'd like to be able to keep the up/down/over and hit features of the button.

I have several buttons inside of a movie clip, as well as functions for the MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT events. There is no gap between the buttons, however, if I move from one button to the next, first the MOUSE_OUT and immediately the MOUSE_OVER function is called again (even though all of this is inside of the movie clip). If I have the buttons inside another button, moving from one (sub-)button to the next is not problem, but then I can't have any animations/movie clips inside (or can I?). Is there any way to "fix" this, meaning that I can move from one button to the next without triggering the functions?

I created a movie clip (let's call it "mysymbol") that contains several buttons, as well as functions for MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT events ("mover" and "mout"). Everything works when the mouse enters "mysymbol" for the first time (mover is being called), but if I move the mouse inside mysymbol to another button, the MOUSE_OUT function (mout) is being called first and then immediately mover. Obviously, I don't want there to be any function calling at all! I have found a way to circumvent this, but since I'm new at this I struggle to get it to work properly:
If mysymbol is a button instead of a movie clip, then I can move my mouse freely within mysymbol without triggering any MOUSE_OVER or MOUSE_OUT events. However, there is another problem: I somehow can't get movie clips to work inside a button(I assume this is by design), so how do I get my animations etc. to work inside this button? is there an alternative to using a button as a container?

I'm doing a map using AS3, and the mouse controls pan movements. It all works fine, but I can't get the buttons (that will be hotspots) to work inside a movie clip (I also need to make the buttons work inside a movieclip). When I test scene, it all works fine, but the buttons don't work in "test movie" option. The problem isn't any code in AS3, because my movie doesn't even recognize the buttons inside the movie clip.
The problem is, the buttons are not responding at all to the mouse, in "test movie". No rollover color, no hand cursor, nothing.

I am trying to teach myself Flash with AS3, I am using Flash Pro CS5. I am making a website and I want to be able to press a button thats inside a movieclip to navigate to a given frame. Example, Two frames, frame 1 has a movieclip with a button inside a scrollpane. I want to click the button and go to frame 2. need a complete and detailed script for this if thats ok. Also, I dont know if this helps any but the code that I use for buttons on the main timeline is this:
ActionScript Code:
function button_clicked(e:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop("frame2");
}
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, button_clicked);

I have this code that makes a menu with two buttons appear following the mouse when the mouse rolls over a movieClip:
Code:
var imgOptions:menuMC = new menuMC();
//Makes the image options follow the mouse
function showImgOptions (e:Event):void
{
[code]..
The problem is that the buttons are children of imgOptions, and when the mouse is over these two buttons, the movie reacts like the mouse is not over the imgOptions movieclip.
