ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons Fading From Color To B&W And Staying Down After Clicked?
Apr 1, 2010
I have an image that I want to make into a button/movie clip that starts out color then fades into black and white (that has text on top when it fades into black and white) when its clicked, and stays that way.....how can I achieve this?[URL]His is reversed from B&W to color, and stays in color after it clicks. I want something like that but B&W when its clicked instead (with text on top)
I am trying to simulate adjusting an LCD screen's contrast using two buttons.
The LCD is one graphic on ONE key frame that runs the entire length of the timeline.
Not sure how to start with the action scripting for this... i would like to use hex values if possible, but had no luck so far with my AS2.
The hard part is that i have a text box on top of the LCD on many different keyframes and the color / brightness of the this will have to change accordingly with the LCD screen.
I've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?
I have a quick question about fading a bg color using actionscript. I am creating a splash page at 800x600 in flash, which is being opened into a new window that fills the browser of the users screen. I already have the actionscript to open into a full browser window.
However, when the user clicks on a button in the 800x600 splash, the bg color in the full browser window will need to change from blue to white. What would be the best way to do this, is there a piece of actionscript that can be attached to a button to do this? Or does a large flash document size need to be created with the 800x600 centered in the middle?
I want to do a nice effect that would do something like this: So far, I made a separate layer in photoshop for each colour, and I want these to slowly fade in and out. The problem is, however that each blob is about 140KB if I use PNG. Is there a better alternative like doing this in vector and blurring it in jquery?
I haven't been able to find a solution that fits my project. I am working on a 50 state map, where I need each state to stay down once clicked, but go up when any other state is clicked. [code]...
-Alright so I have made a next, and a prev button. That navigate the timeline inside an mc "tabs_mc." This mc ison the the main stage.-When the next and prev buttons are pressed they goto 1 of 4 frame labels on this timeline inside tabs_mc.-When one of these lables is reached an mc "thumbs" appears on the screen / stage.-These mc's "thumbs1, thumbs2, thumbs3, and thumbs4" contain buttons that SHOULD be clickable.-But are not after the prev, and next buttons are press. They are before the next, and prev button are press, but not after.
way this is or even better how to keep these buttons enabled after the next, prev buttons are clicked?I thought of making some sort of boolean to tell the each button that is needs to stay "true" after prev, and next are pressed.But I'm a beginner so I don't know where to start.Heres the next, and prev button code:
HTML Code: //Button Listeners /////next_mc.buttonMode = true;
What I am trying to do is to have the button color change to a different color when it is on the page. The color only changes when I roll over it or hit it. Once I am on the page it changes back to the color it is on the up state.
working on a project which has a number of buttons, when the user rolls over one of these buttons the alpha value decreases to 0 to reveal a image on a lower layer.What I would like to do is gradually restore the alpha back to 100% after the user has moved the cursor off a button. However, I dont want the alpha to restore to 100% straight away, I would like there to be a few second delay before the alpha starts restoring, is this possible, and if so how would I go about doing it
im making my portfolio in flash. And the designing goes oke etc, but now im at the programming part, and thats not what im good at.[URL] If you mouse your cursor over the most right (black) button you see "contact" fading in, thats oke, and when you click on it a big orange shape slides in, some text is needed to put in here. But! When you move the mouse of the button the orange shape slides back.
So my question is, how can I make the orange shape stay while the mouse is of the button? And when the mouse moves out of the contact button and over another it should fade in that name to, (like it does now).
I am changing a color of a button when clicked. How every i have ten buttons. Each instance name is like this Person1. Person2 etc.I can change the color of the button when clicked, however I want to make sure when you click on a different button, it changes the previous button back to its original color.I know i can do this the ghetto way and list out all the buttons i want with no color each time but if later i have 50 buttons i dont want to list them. So i built a loop but the loop is not working right. Can someone help?
This code is an example of what might be on the first button:
Code: on(release){ for(i = 0; i<11; i++){ var tmpPerson = new Color("Person"+i);
I have a menu animation where my background changes colour when clicked by a button. > This works fine. But when I click the button the second time it doesnt go to that colour, it goes to another colour.

I'm trying to get a movieclip fill color to change once clicked. I'm able to get the mouseover and mouseout working. But the click state isn't working properly.
When I use the above code, nothing happens once clicked. I tried using the color property, but, although that made a color change (black), it wasn't the color I had indicated (white).What I have is a movieclip ("my_mc"). Inside the movieclip are other movieclips. When one is clicked, only that movieclip ("my_mc.movieclip01"), is highlighted.
I was going to use this code and modify it to work with the previous code.
ActionScript Code: var OBJECTcolorInfo:ColorTransform = OBJECT.transform.colorTransform; cpOBJECT.addEventListener(ColorPickerEvent.CHANGE, colorChange);
[code]....
A quick note, the OBJECT is there to show it's supposed to refer back to the "["bg"+String(i)]" bit is. I just don't know how to tell the code to look for it.My main goal is to have an object, for instance a rectangle, be draggable (and placeable). You would then set a series of color pickers to said rectangle, changing areas of it's colors once you double click it.However, the rectangle must move as a whole and not have to have each individual color part be repositioned along with it.
I'm trying to play 2 external flash movies. its already running ok but i need the scene to be somewhat to gradually become transparent so that the timebased scene2 will comeout to of the screen.
Here is the script of it:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("scene2.swf"); myLoader.load(url); addChild(myLoader);
I can't work out why - but when I try to fade out some text (by calling fadeoutSecondText), the text fades out, and then immediately fades back in. Fading in and out struggle against each other, resulting in rapidly flashing text!
[code]the page im trying to access is named home and the button is b19_btn, the rollover, up & down states work.But when clicked it does nothing and the output doesnt show any errors?i added trace("clicked")and dont recieve anything in the output window??
buttons are programmed identical but some of them have to be double or tripple clicked (depending on the level they are in) in order to access the designated location.What does it mean? Is there an error in code and something has to be rearranged differently?all of the top menu buttons work with a single click, except for the first one "about us" which has to be double clicked.
i need a very simple interactivity to work on .. i have 6 btns on stage and only when all are clicked i want my next event to take place ..say i want to trace("done ") when all are clicked .. but the user can click the btns in any order..
Basically I have 3 expandable buttons place beneath each other that expand when individually clicked. I want the "other" buttons to move/tween as the user clicks each button. I could get them to move but I want them to tween when they move rather than just jump to a new y position.
I have a file,which loads external movieclips in a main file,and you can navigate around,by using a next / previous button.It also has a dynamic textfield which loads an xml. What I need to do is,load the second node of the xml file,when a second external swf is loaded. For example: First external swf loads,the first node of xml loads.Then,you click next button and the second external swf loads.Now,how can I make the same dynamic textfield display the second node of my xml file?
I have a game where there are five buttons which can be clicked (which will play sounds). But once 3 of them have been clicked, the user is taken to a new scene.
I have the following code, I'm completely lost why this isn't working:
Code: var buttonArr:Array = new Array (button1, button2, button3, button4, button5); var t: int = 0;
[Code]....
make the game go to a new scene once 3 buttons are clicked?
I'm trying to create a loop of some kind. I haven't done these before and I've tried searching the forum, but I'm still stuck. Not to mention, I still don't understand the difference between a for, while, and do loop, but I will tackle those later.
For now I have several buttons that need to be clicked before the user can proceed. I am trying something like this:
If I have 10 buttons, how do I keep track of the order of buttons I click on? For example, if I click buttons only in this order: button3, button6, button8, button2, something will happen. Maybe plays a sound tone such as sound.mp3. I'm going to use actionscript 2.0 in my movie.
Action Script 2.I have a count function that counts how many times the buttons in my scene are clicked.It counts upwards on each mouse click:root. count+=1.I know this is working because a trace(_root.count) shows appropriately.When count == 6, I need to trigger a sound. My code is as follows;[code]The problem is, it's not triggering the sound as expected, even though the _root.count trace is showing 6.
I am making a game for the university I attend. I am having students choose between college and high school by two buttons to see if they choose the correct answer. Then I want it to display the number correct on a result page I will have them print out for the instructor of their freshman seminar class.Can flash remember if a specific button was clicked? I have each button with a unique name and could it tell which one was clicked to help me figure out results?
Otherwise, I was wondering if there was a way I could have flash keep track of "points" so I can display the number correct. Would it be possible if I gave each button a numeric value and somehow added up the numbers from each button to put over a total score of 12 (that's how many questions there are)? Could it be done in a dynamic text field?
I recieved some help earlier with actionscript 3.0 and buttons. I wanted my buttons to load in a swf file into the main flash document when clicked. I can't seem to figure out how to get multiple swfs files loaded into the flash document. I also need the swf files to unload when an diffrenent buttons is clicked.
I'm trying to stop the swf from reloading when the buttons are clicked.just want it to load once [default.html] and then onclick or onrelease get the correct URL [without reloading the complete page]
